UNDER A FALLEN HORSE.
A Young Cowboys Neck Broken in
 Pinal County.

The uncertainty of life has had an- other sorrowful illustration in the sud- den taking off of young Bob" Lee, well and favcrably known to large circle of friends in southern Arizona. Saturday afternoon, the very last day of two months roundup, in the neighborhood of Table Mountain, in Pinal county, Bob was at work with
 his crew, holding large bunch of cattle which had been driven together. One of the unruly beasts broke out of the herd and started down the side of a very steep hill. Young Lee followed and threw his riata over the animal.
 His horse was very tired, owing to the hard work which it had done, and re- fused to answer the rein. Instead of following the COW down hill, the horse turned his head away and was thrown over upon his side. So suddenly was this done that the rider did not have the slightest chance to free himself from the saddle, and in consequence
 was crushed beneath the horse His neck and back bone were broken His comrades came to his rescue, found him unconscious, and knew that the end was near. He was placed upon
 horse and carried to the nearest ranch, seven miles from where he lay, alive but wholly unconscious. for twelve hours, when he breathed his last.
 The deceased was just boy, being eighteen years and five days old He
 was a brother of Mrs. Richard Brady
 and Mrs. Moss, and was we'll known in

TO FORFEIT A CHARTER.

Proceedings Against the Duluth Gas and
Water Company.
ST. PAUL, July 6.-The epidemic Of
typhoid fever that carried off hundreds
of the citizens Of Duluth year ago is
brought to mind again by hearing
which is called for Monday before At
torney General Childs Ellsworth Ben
ham, corporation counsel for Duluth,
will then appear before the attorney
general and make an application for a
writ of quo warranto to compel the
Duluth Gas and Water company to ap-
pear in the supreme court and show
cause why its charter should not be
declared forfeited to the city of Duluth.
The ground Oh which the application
is made is that the company failed to
comply with the requirements of its
charter in that it did not supply good
and wholesome water to the city. The
application goes further and charges
company with wilfully placing its in.
take pipe close to the sewage dis
charge from the city Of Duluth, so that
it received the sewage and surface
waters of Lake Superior and that as a
result of the use of the water by the
residents of Duluth several epidemics of
typhoid fever ragged in the city and hun.

should settle all such questions. Nor do
they favor the abrogation of the two
thirds rule. They intend, however, to
vote down any gold man that the ma.
tional committee may offer. and insist
upon silver man for the place. The
activity for Boies has been accelerated
by the arrival of the candidate, but the
work is progressing OH the lines pre-.

Several Iowa Democrats who are anti.
silver men, including j. j. Richardson,

here working against Boies and joining
the gold forces in the effort to prevent

This has caused a great deal of bitter

bers of the party, would leave the
matter in their hands and trust wholly
to their discretion and patriotism.
Speaking Of the Chicago convention,
he said:
Its majority is body Of magnificent
and patriotic men. There is no doubt
but they will issue new declaration OF
independence and nominate candidates
about whose devotion to the welfare OF
the plain people there will be no room
for doubt. The great majority for bi
