A Prospector Meets With a Probable
 Fatal Accident.

A. L. Carrier, an old prospector, is an inmate of the Sisters hospital, where he is being treated for what may be a fatal accident
 From what can be learned the old gentleman lives in a tent about five miles north of the city and late Sat urday night he was awakened from his slumbers by the furious barking of dog.
 He got up to ascertain the cause He had no sooner stepped outside of his tent when he was felled to the ground by blow in the abdomen. The blow was struck by steer and one of the animals horns entered his bowels, making terrible wound and allowing the fntestines to protrude.
 He was brought into Phoenix as soon aus he was discovered and now has only a fighting chance for his life.

THE BIsBEE FLOOD.
What Col. Cotton, an Eye Witness, Has
 to Say of It.

Col. Cotton returned yesterday from a trip to Bisbee. He was an eye wit ness of the flood that occurred there and says it was something terrible and the damage to railroad and other property will amount to S1O0,O00.
 All the bodies of the people drowned have not yet been found, although a force of men is searching in the flats where the bodies of the two Zeek chil- dren were found. The hail in the flats was three feet deep two days after the flood and the searchers have to use picks in order to prosecute the search
 He said the storm came from two clouds which met southwest of the city and took funnel shape. The flood of water and hail came down from the mesa west of the Whetstone noun tains, striking MT. Zeek's house and carrying away with it Mrs. Zeek and her two little boys, also another lady and two children, who were visiting at Mrs. Zeek's The flood continued on it's way, carrying houses along as if they were chips.
 Several Mexicans who lived on the flats are supposed to have been drowned, as their bodies have not yet been discovered.

WALL OF WATER.
The Colorado River Gets on Ram
 page.

A report was brought into Blackberry Monday by Mohave Indians, says the Kingman Miner, to the effect that a few evenings before, while the en- ployes of the Barnhart company, op- erating on the Colorado river a short distance above Scanion's ferry, were at supper they were startled by terrible roaming in the canyon above and were mortified to see body of water tower ing twenty feet above the level of the river, coming down on them at rail- road speed.
 They had just time enough to es- cape to high ground when the wall of water broke over the company's works and when it had passed away there was left the placid shining sands as of yore.
 The loss will be heavily felt by the company, as they had just put the works in running order The cause of the flood is unaccountable, as no rain has fallen up the river for over a month.

 The deed was committed in broad daylight and it must have been a nervy gang that would do such an act when any chance passerby might observe their action
 The young ladies were absent from home at the time

and it is V fth view to reaching these that he plakes this offer. This is cer- tainly a most generous and fair offer, and all who are suffering from any of the above complaints should remember the date and place where the distri- .bution will be made and avail them selves of the same. Persons living out of this city who desire to test the efficacy of this most wonderful remedy will receive a package free by mari by writing to Dr. R. Schiffmann, 320 Rosabel street, St. Paul, Minn., prol viding their letter is received before October 16, as no free samples can be obtained after that date. R. Waldin, the we'll known druggist, authorizes US to announce that he has received quantity of samples from Dr. Schiff- mann, which he will distribute during the hours mentioned in accordance with his offer.

CURES ASTHMA AND HAY FEVER
AtNoted Physician Offers to Prove This to All Sufferers in Phoenix on
 Thursday,

The majority of sufferers from asth- ma and kindred complaints, after try ing doctors and numberless remedies advertised as positive cures without avail, have come to the conclusion that there is no cure for this most distress ing disease, and these same persons. will be the more in doubt and skeptical when they learn through the columns of the press that Dr. Rudolph Schiff- mann, t1he recognized authority. who has treated more cases of these dis eases than any living doctor, has achieved success by perfecting rem edy which not only gives immediate relief in the worst cases, but has posi- lively cured thousands of sufferers who were considered incurable. These were just as skeptical as some of our readers now are. Dr. Schiffmann's remedy no doubt possesses the merit which is claimed for it or he would not authorize this paper to announce that he is not only willing to give free to each person suffering from Asthma, Hay Fever or Bronchitis in this city one Liberal free trial box" of his Cure, but urgently requests all suffer CTS to call at R. Watkins drug store, 11S Washington street, Thursday, or Friday, October and g, and receive a package absolutely free of charge, knowing that in making the claim he does for his Cure, a strong doubt may arise in the minds of many, and that a personal test, as he offers to all, will be more convincing, and prove its mer- its, than the publishing of thousands of testimonials from persons who have been permanently cured by the use of his Asthma Cure. Or Schiffmann's $
 Asthma Cure, as it is called, has been sold by druggists of this city ever since 1t was first introduced, although many persons may never have heard of it,

REPUBLICAN RALLY.
Monster Ratification Held at Tempe |
 Last Night.

The largest political rally ever held at Tempe was held there last night by the champions of Republicanism.
 A special train left Phoenix about ' o'clock with the coaches filled with good Republicans from this city to participate in the ratification of the party in the butte city
 The speakers and candidaes were entertained by the Republican club of Tempe.
 The club met the visitors at the de- pot with a band and the several hund- red men in line marched to the plaza west of the Andree building, where the speakers stand was handsomely dec- orated. The Phoenix Glee club ren- dered some of their popular campaign ballads.
 Thomas Flannigan, the rising young attorney and candidate for the legis- lature, was one of the speakers and he handled the Democratic and Popocratic classes without gloves. He said that in the event of the success of the Ma tional Republican party the country would have free silver by Republican president and congress and by interna- tional agreement. He illustrated his remarks by a couple of humorous stories. Tom has the pleasing and happy knack of amusing an audience and on this occasion he clearly showed that he was a proper person to repre- sent Maricopa county in the assembly
 Judge Kibbey was the speaker of the evening and he handled the National and local issues in a manner that ad- mitted of no dispute but that he cor rectly dianosed the money problem.
 His remarks were received very en- thusiastfcally by the immense crowd
 Judge Gooding and others addressed the crowd and it is certain that theil remarks made votes for the Republi. can ticket
 The train returned to Phoenix abou midnight, everybody feeling confiden1 that Republican victory had beer scored at Tempe.
