Prof. Cummings has set on loot
move for the purpose of collecting
library for the public school sending out
circulars by the pupils, asking those VINO
wish to do SO to contribute such books or
magazines as they may have to dispose
of The circular states that the school
is now prepared to accommodate two
thousand volumes, and also sets forth
the importance of such an institution as
a school library for the public school on
account of many of the pupils being un-
able to procure reading matter.
Though not so icited to do so, iHK
HERALD cannot forbear to the add few
words of this enterprise. Its impor'
lance cannot be over-estimafed, as moth

THY MADE HIM HUSTLE.
Cyclone Davis Reported as Run Out
of Pittsburg, Texas, by Indig-
nant Populists,

Cyclone Davis, the most despised
man in Texas, by the decent ele-
ment, attempted to make a speech
at Pittsburg, Texas, last evening,
and during his talk said he had been
accused Of selling the Populist par
ty to Mark Hanna for $4,000 At
this some one said; Eyes, and it is
true, too" Davis said to this,
"the man who says so is an infer
nal liar" This was the straw that
broke the camels back for a rush
was made at Davis and he was
treated pretty roughly, by being
beaten over the head and other
wise roughly handled The men
who did this was at one time Davis
supporters, but as he had betrayed
them by selling them to Mark Han
na, they felt like showing their con-
tempt for him and did show it, too.
They made him leave town on toct,
and told HIM if he ever showed h S
ugly mug" there again, they
would treat him to a good genteel
thrashing. Davis will not 90 to
Congress this time, by the Camp
county vote, this is authentic, This
news was brought here by the early
Cotton Belt train this morning
Since the above was put in type,
men coming from Pittsburg, says
there was only one man who jumped
on Davis, and he gave him such a
humping that he left town onfoot,
The offence was about the same as
the above described,
No one regrets the treatment re-
ceived by Davis but applaud the act
as far as we can hear.

WEST SIDE ELECTION.

The election on the West side, is
passing off quietly at this hour, l:3O
p. m.
The reporter visited several of
the voting places and found them
surrounded by good Democrats who
were working for the success of the
Democratic ticket in Its entletY.
The votes cast in the morning was
those cast by white people, the col
ored man hanging on the fences and
stumps and other places where he
could sit down, awaiting patiently
for those "boodle dollars" he has
heard so much about and up to the
present time seen so little of.
We were told however that a few
of them had been voted and while
they voted for Mckinley electors
they voted the Democratic State
and county ticket,
The vote will not be a large one,
unless money is used to get the ne
gro to vote, for he has been educa-
ted to except pay, and pay he will
have or he will sulk off and not vote
at all.
We have heard of no trouble up
to this time and hope the election
will pass off quietly and in a genteel
manner.
Election on East Side is progress
ing orderly. 1t is thought that not
over a two-thirds vote will be pojled.
Democratic ticket will carry over
three .fourths of all votes cast,

was as horsey as horsey could make

gave some grotesque grouping and

did some good shooting at targets

shot at a 2lophone, playing a tune

cIrv AND COUNTY.

Duquesne mine, was at Fl Pasl last week, the Herald noting his visit.
 NIT. George F.. Fitzgerald of the Du- quesnc mine, has been very ill., at Crit tendcn this week. Tuesday Doctor Chenowcth of Nogales, was called to Crittcnden to prescribe for him.
 Word from Orc Blanco conveys the intelligence that matters at Old Glory are assuming very lively status. Major Fechet is cTowding as rapidly as possible the work of preparation for the new mill which has been or dered, and development work in the mine is being pushed with vigor.
 Star: There was entered for record Tuesday deed from the sheriff to Albert Steinfeld to various tracts Of land and ranches belonging to the Ba- boquivar Land and Cattle company. The consideration was sl ,250. The property was sold under judgment rendered year ago last May.
 At Calabasas Monday of the present week, two trainloads of Sonora cattle were loaded and despatched. Each was double header, requiring two locomotives to haul. The cattle were driven from Saric, in the Altar dis trict of Sonora, by Rebeil & Pompa. They were consigned and shipped by the well firm of C. Ramirez X Co. of NOgales.
 Tucson is arranging for an elaborate celebration Of the Fourth of July. Liberal sums are being subscribed by the business men. Arrangements have also been made for tue election of Queen of the Fourth" who will be the most popular young lady in the city or the young lady with the great est "pull." Votes will be received at the Star and Citizen offices. The cleo tion will be closed on June 2s.
 The United States district court has been in session at Tucson the present week, and has tried several cases of smuggling, and three celestials for un- lawful importation of Chinese. One of the important cases is the trial of Sergeant Lashley for the murder of a fellow soldier both colored) at Fort Huachuca. The crime having occurred on military reservation brings its trial within jurisdiction of United States court.
 A deal Is reported as being in hand for the sale of the Rosemont copper properties to Lewisohn Brothers of Boston. It is stated on good author ity that it will probably be consum- mated and the transfer made shortly. In that event operations will be con ducted on a very extensive scale, the reduction works will be greatly in creased in capacity, the mine exten- sively developed and several hundred men will be given constant employ ment.
 If it required an annual outlay of slO0 to insure family against any serious consequences from an attack of bowel complaint during the year there are many who would feel it their duty to pay it; that they could not afford to risk their lives, aud those of their family for such an amount. Any one can get this insurance for % cents, that being the price of a bottle of Chamberlains Collie, Cholera and Diarfhoea Remedy In almost every neighborhood some one has died from an attack of bowel complaint before medicine could be procured or a physi. elan summoned. One or two doses of this remedy will curp nnv ardinarx,
