tween the rails of a <de-track. Next he heard the report of a revolver and at the same instaat felt pain in his stomach. He cried, "I am shot" and then ran toward his companion, the stranger, crying that he had been shot. The train moved off and the wounded man was taken to Dr. Jones' office, as has been related.
 Conductor Buffers statement agrees wiIah that of Mitchell as to one incl dent. He put a man off the train at the warehouse just before the train starred and this, he says, was the only tramp he saw at Tempe. He heard no shot fired and did not know when the train left that any one had bsen hurt. One chamber of his revolver was empty, but he explained that he al ways had an empty chamber for the hammer of the gun to rest upon. Soon after the arrival of Deputy Sheriff Moore, Deputy Sheriff Slank- ard and Assistant District Attorney Kellum left for Tempe to gather what information they could regarding the i affair. They were accompanied by Dr. Wylie, whose visit has been pre- viously mentioned. They were un- able to learn anything definitely. They were told that some I-dians and Mexicans and young man named Grimes witnessed the shooting and | identified the conductor.
 A report came to Pho mix in the middle of the afternoon that Mitchell was dead, but a later one came that 1 he was not and that there was a pos 1 sibillty that he would recover. At this juncture Judge Baker of Baker l & Alexandsr, who had bee retaine1 i for the defense, began the prepara- tion of bond. The matter had to 1 be arranged by telephone. Assistant District Attorney Kellunn, who wa: still at Tempe, agreed with the justic5 upon $2,0G0 a: tha amount. Judge Baker procured the signatures of Mayor Adams and G. H. N Lllhrs, and Court Commis sioner Crenshaw directed the justic; at Tempe to approve it and certify his approval to the sheriff and the com short time and Conductor Butler wa released.

THE HUGHES ACQUISITION.
Where the Blame Lies for the Delay
 in It's Issue.

Certain newspapers and persons op- posed to the territorial administra- tion, for lack of other accusations are accusing Governor McCord of a want of promptness in issuing a requisi- tion for the arrest of Fred G. Hughes, supposed to be lingering in Guaymas, Mexico. The first application from
 Pima county, as was explained by The Republican at the time, was so utterly
 devoid of legal form that the issuance of a requisition upon it would have been in itself violation of law. The warrant of arrest was Issued by a justice of the peace upon the com p1aint of another justice and in none of the papers in the application did the name of the district attorney of the county or of any other county of fioial appear. In his prompt denial of the requisition the governor pointed out, first, this defect and gave as his mere opinion that the offenSes de- scribed might not fall under the ex- tradition treaty with Mexico. Blu. the latter objection, if it may be said to have been an objection, was sec ondary, for the first was plainly fa,al.
 The following Sunday, week ago last Sunday, Sheriff Leatherwood of Pima county returned to Phoenix with the papers remedied as to the real defect. The governor, who had in- tended to leave for California on Sun
 day night, postponed his starting un- til the next night that he might ex- anime the papers and issue the requi
 sition. It was made out as early as possible, but before its issuance the papers were turned over to Attorney General Frazier for examination for a study of the eXtradiltfon treaty. That night the aEtorney-general mailed the papers and { requisition. Up on this showing whatever de lay has been encountered in putting the machinery of the law

STRANGER SHOT AT TEMPE
Conductor Butler Arrested
 Yesterday Morning
His Dsnial of All Knowledge of the .ShCoting The Statement Of tha
 N>eunded Man Whose Hold on
 Life Is Uncertain.

Biron Mitchell, young man, was shot and probably fatally wounded at Tempe about half past enght o'clock on Sunday night while trying to steal ride on the southbound M & P. train Who shot him will be determined in court, but in the meantime Conductor J. H. Butler was arrested at Tempe on his return trip yesterday morning by Deputy Sheriff Billy Moore on war rant issued by Justice Carley. The conductor accompanied the officer to Phoenix and was detained at the she.- ifs office until o'clock, when he was admitted to bail.
 The conductor denies all knowledge of the shooting and says he was sur prised at his arrest.
 Mitchel's wound was examined on the night of the shooting by Dr. c. H. Jones. Yesterday morning on a telegram from Superintendent c. c. McNeill he was removed from the res idence of Dr. Jones to the Hayden house and placsd in the care of Dr. Scroggs. Later in the nor ing Dr. Wiley was sent over by the authori- ties to examine the wounded man and at the close of the examination, Dr. , Dr. Jones directed his removal to the hospital.
 .Dr. Wiley found that a bullet had entered the left side of Mitchell s breast, having passed through his coat sleeve above the elbow and through his coat. It struck rib and was da- fected, entering the body below the fifth rib. What course it then took is uncertain and the doctor said three or four days would elapse before the precise character of the wound would be known. Mitchell made a statement which was taken down by Attorney Harry Buck. He said his home was at Waco, Texas, where his father is a jeweler. In explanation of letters in his pocket addressed to D. J. Simms, he said that that name was an alias. He had come to Phoenix from the northern part of the territory and was accompanied here by a stranger whom he had met at Wickenburg They concealed themselves on the M. & P. train. intending to ride to Mari copa: when the train reached Tempe and before it stopped in the vicinity of Blinn's warehouse they got off. The stranger got on again, but was put off by the conductor. As the train was starting they approached it again, but stopped when they saw the moQpGskt glinting on a revolver in the1LMd of the conductor on top of a cattle car. Mitchell said he was about ten feet away. He, thought he heard the revolver snap and he sprang be-

Dyspe psia

The explanation is simple. It is found in that impure blood which is contin- ually feeding the nerves upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds simply deaden and do not cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the true remedy for all nervous troubles.

She Used Il 10 Nip a Fursa,on in the

A young society girl from New

Gently. II was warm day and
she had her gloves Off. In her hand
she held a package which looked as
if it might contain several new pairs.
There were not more than dozen
people in the car, and when she was
comfortably seated she began to rnt
her gloves on. When they were both
on she took out of her pockctbook a
dainty silver buttonhook and began
TO button the one on her lefthand. In
doing this the buttoner slipped from
her grasp and fell to the floor
A chappie-looking fellow scurried
up from behind, picked up the but
ton hook and smilingly offered to
button the young lady's glove. For
an instant she acted as the average
girl would have done-looked resent
ment; then her salt-air genius came
back to her. She held out her hand
with a kindly smile in compliance
with his request.
She sat perfectly quiet as he took
twice as long as the operation should
have lasted, and when he was through
with one, she calmly held out the
other hand He didn't expect this,
but it was just what he wanted, and,
smiling more namely than ever, he
seized her other hand and buttoned
the glove.
Taking the buttonhook from his
hand she deposited it in her pocket
book, and took from it a quarter and
a nickel.

said.

Just then the real guardian of the

swiftly, turned to the crestfallen

everybody in the car to hear;

HIS PAPER WAS SOILED.
But Kind-Hearted Woman Bought
It and Ruined Her Gloves.

~ N'A ''S'
won't you buy my paper, please?"
Perhaps it was the tremor in the
baby voice that arrested the woman's
attention. She paused and glanced
down at the odd little figure almost
lost in a faded gray ulster several sizes
too large for it.
''Please buy my paper" The child
held out a copy that constituted his
stock in trade.
"But it is all muddy" said the
woman. 81 could not buy muddy
paper, you know"
lie tried to wipe off some of the
black CRIME on his dirty sleeve.
"Tain't so awful muddy" he
urged, doubtfully lifting his big eyes
full of the pathos of unchildish child
hood.
'Do come on, Madge," cried her
companion, impatiently, but she still
bent over the boy. She was, it was
plain, one of those women in whom
the mother instinct is so strong that
it instantly perceiyes the angel in
every infant that chances her way.
GLOW did it get so soiledp" she
asked, kindly.
81 picked it up in the street." re-
piled the child.
"Then it is not yours and you have
no right to sell it," said the woman's
companion, severely. "Come, Madge,
you will catch your death standing in
this wind"
"'Tis mine," replied the little fell
low, resentfully. "The wind blowed
it into the mud and jim told me |
tould have it. But" his voice fall
tered and he looked mournfully at
the muddy street, 81 tan'tsellit. No
body won't buy my paper" The big
tears welled up, then plowed uneven
burrows down the grimy cheeks. The
woman took something from her
pocketbook and slipped it into the
dirty hand
81 will take it," she said, 81 don't
mind if it is a little soiled." She
crumpled the paper in her hand and
hurried after her companion and the
latter was overheard to remark in
tones Of disgust;
