Singular Accident.
lGazette.1

Last evening E. NJ. Conger, living nine miles west of Phoenix, while work ing with some cattle got the back of his hand badly bruised and to relieve the pain applied alcohol and sugar to the wound. Shortly afterwards he at- tempted to light his pipe wen the alec. hol caught fire burning the wrappings so that the hand and lower arm were quickly enveloped in flames and before the fire could be extinguished the hand was so burned that the skin slipped of with the glove. The burn was 8 severe and painful one and will disable MT. Conger for some time. Dr. Swetman rendered the necessary surgical assis- tance to the sufferer.

The Darlington. Wis, Journal says editorially of 8 popular patent medi- cine: "We know from experIence that Chamberlain's ColIc. Cholera and Diar- rhna Remedy is all that is claimed for it. as on two occasions It stopped ex- cruciating pains and possibly saved us from an untimely grave. We would not rest easy over night without it in the honse." This remedy undoubtedly saves more pain and suffering than any other medicine in the world. Every family should keep it in the house, for it is sure to be needed sooner or later. For sale by the St. Johns Drug Con- pany.

ATTEMPTED MIDDLE.
The Republicans Want Three
 SuperviSOrS.


 The nominations made by the lste Republican county convention have been filed with Recorder Gonzales, of this county. The list of candidates i'm clude three names for members of the Board of Supervisors. This action is in open defiance of the Revised Stat utes of the Territory, and is also in opposition to the GoverDor's proclama- tion, which calls for the election of but two members of the b ,ard Of super visors in Apache county.
 The pretense upon which this action Is based is about as follows: When Apache county was divided and Navajo county organized, the effect was to leg. islate Mir. J. H. Willis, of Snowflake, out of office. MT. Willis had previously been elected member of the board of supervisors for the hong term The va cancy was filled by the appointme of Mir. w. H. Gibbons. According to the Revised Statutes he succeeded to all the rights of the office which MT. Viii lls might have himself enjoyed. which certainly included the long term as member of the board of supervisors.
 With their usual disposition to mix and muddle matters, the republicans have taken occasion to nominate 8 full board, in the slim hope that they may be elected, and then it is proposed to undertake to buIldose MT. Gibbons out of the office to which he is rightfully entitled to serve for the ensuing two years,
 This matter wIll be settled to the sat- isfsction of the people of Apache coun- ty by the election of Messrs. L. J. Brown and Elisha Averitt, the Demo. cratic nominees, who, with Mir. Gib- bons, will administer the affairs of this county for the ensuing two years.
