ALMOST KIDNAPPING.
A Mothers Recurrence of Affection for
 an Abandoned Child.

Something turned up in probate court yesterday that was almost con strued to be a case of Kidnapping. Some years ago man named Gleason, and his wife, a Mexican woman, were divorced, the woman being awarded the custody of a small boy, William Gleason. The woman married Fran cisco Orduna and practically aban- doned the little boy. Dr. c. H. Jones, with the consent of the father, took the child, who is now about IA years 2 old He is bright boy and both the doctor and his wife have grown at tached to him. Since he has grown old aud strong enough to work his : mother, who lives with her husband in Phoenix, has had recurrence of maternal affection. She has lately been holding out to him the advantage of getting but and doing somethir g for, himself instead of fooling away his time in school. She suggested to him that he could quickly acquire wealth and independence by working in mine.
 Alarmed by these overtures. Dr. Jones last week applied in probate court for letters of guardianship. On Monday the woman and her husband went to Tempe. The mother went to the normal where the boy is at school and the stepfather waited in con- venient blacksmith shop.
 When the boy came out of tile school house ill response to the sum- mons he rejected as unreasonable and not to be considered at all his mother: proposition to go home with her Then she played upon his feelings aDd had recourse to tears. The youth weakened a little and went with her as far as the blacksmith shop. Then hs was induced to get into buggy and was not permitted to go back to the school house after his hat
 When Dr. Jones learned of hls de parture he came ito Phoenix, arrivins here late on Monday night. He ap piled for an order restraining Mrs Orduna and her husband from takins the boy out of the territory, as he hat been informed they intended to do

THE CANAL RECEIVER.
The Matter Was Further Postponed
 Yesterday

There is still no Arizona Ca al conn pany receiver The attorneys of the various interests were in conference with Judge Street in chambers a con- siderable part of yesterday. How nearly an agreement was reached was not made known, but late in the after noon ithe announcement was made that the matter might not be disposed of for a day or two.
 It was expected that the grand jury would finish it's work yesterday and submit final report. As matter of fact it did finish all the work in sight, but when it was brought into court the foreman created a slight surprise by begging permission to adjourn until next Tuesday. Judge Street replied that there could be no legal objection to such an adjournment.
 It is understood that this move was made in order to remedy any defec in indictments which may be discov- cred.
 Several indictments were included in yesterdays report, but all but one were hidden. That one was an indict- ment for forgery against Wallace Dun can, who is in custody.

THE FULLER GROUP.
Arrival in the City of MT. Hobbs, One
 of the Owners.

Mr. c. M. Hobbs of Denver, one of the gentlemen engaged in the develop ment of the Fuller mining claims on Squaw creek, arrived in town yester- day morning from a visit of inspsc- tion to the mine. He was accompa- nied to the mine by MT. Reeves, also of Denver, who is interested in the enterprise. MT. Reeves returned di- rectly to Denver.
 Speaking of the Fuller group and the work going on there, MT. Hobbs said that when the present company came into possession, the work of development, if it could be called de- velopment, consisted of tunnel which did not reach the vein, and several shallow shafts. The mine was al most inaccessible, though there was a nearly impossible road from Pres cott The first thing done by the new owners was to construct a fairly good road ten miles S down Squaw creek to Goddard station. Then the machinery was taken up. Eight car loads consisting of ten stamp mill, concentrates and tramway. etc.
 A tunnel has been driven into the vein from the side of the mountai l and the ore is conveyed by a tramway to the mill, 1900 feet farther down. Work has been commenced On an- other tunnel ITO feet below the first one. Only twenty-five men are em- ployed now, but that is all that, at the present stage of development, there is room for, since active work was begun hardly two months ago.
 The ore is of good grade and ex- plorations have shown that the body is of such extent that the mine is des- timed to become one of the great prop critics of the territory.
 1t will also be tributary to Phoenix, for, as has been explained before, there is no practicable outlet to any other point.
 MT. Hobbs returned to Denver last might. Now that he is gone there will be no harm in saying, for it cannot be successfully denied, that his activity is not confined to mining. He is one of the foremost workers in the Y M

THROATS WERE CUT.
Four Men F'oul1y Murdered on an
 Oyster Boat.

Washington Nov. 30.-An fnvesti- gation of the mysterious finding of the bodies of two men which were washed ashore at Colonial beach, sixty miles from Washington, on the Potomac, Nocembsr IS, has led to the discov- cry of quadruple murder by the cap- tain assisted by some of the crew of an oyster boat. dredging in the vicinity
 The throats of both men had been cut. One Of the bodies was yesterday identified as that of John Canter, of Anacosta, a suburb of this city.
 Owing to the fact that Colonial Beach at this season of the year is almost completely shut off from con- munication with the outside world. the facts have been slow in coming in. and even now are very meagre.
 According to the story of an oyster man, the trouble occurred in the oyster fields about November 15, and arose over dispute regarding wages then due. In the fight which ensued four men were deliberately killed by the captain, their threats cut from ear to ear and their bodies cast into the water.
 The narrator of the story which oSShAo IO OO OoiAN Out Uy luS ldCIs already discovered from other sou ce; claims to have effected his escape and after many hardships managed tc reach shore in safety. The name ct the boat, as well as that of the captain and the three other murdered men are at this rime unknown, though ev, cry effort is being made to locate the murderer and his craft which is now supposed to be in the oyster fields be. i tween Maryland and Virginia. The authorities at Colonial Beac1 l are also dragging the river along tht beach in the hope of recovering tht 1 two other bodies.

THE SCHOOL CENSUS.
Some Figures Are Pleasing and Some
 Are Not.

Are MOL.
 County Superintendent Grouse yes- t5rday finished his annual report to the superint tendent of public instruction. The following interesting figures and comparisons are gathered from it: There are in the county AHA pupils of school age; whites, 2,139 boys, 1850 girls: colored, 25 boys and 30 girls. Of all these, 3,30S whites and 36 col ored attended the public schools; 132 went to private schools and ST at tended denominational schools. The number of those who attended no school at all was 5S3. Of the pupils, 177 are foreign born: 785 have both foreign born parents; 496 have one parent foreign born, and 2.6S6 are children of both native born parents.
 Within the year two school districts have elapsed and one new one has been created. A year ago the number of pupils of school age was 4,C16, the increase of 12S being made up from the Phoenix and Tempe districts Many of the outer districts show a falling off, and very few an increase.
 It is an unexplainable circumstance that the attendance at the public l schools was greater last year than this by 146. One locks in vain to the at tendance ait private and denOmina- tional schools for relief, for il the 1 former the increase this year is only Al, and in the latter only 5, leaving the attendance at all schools this year i just 100 less than it was last year. On account of the increase in the num- Der of pupils of school age the ratio of non-attendance is more Visib1y in creased, amounting Ito almost 12 per | cent

Dig down to the cause of your sick ness, if you want to get well and stay we'll Most likely it's indigestion. The irritating poisons of fermenting, pu- trid food, left in the stomach by indi- gestion, cause headache, neuralgia, nervousness, dizziness, stomachache, nausea, irritability and all the other well known symptoms of indigestion.
 They also cause many pains and dis orders which are often laid to other causes and hence are not easily cured. But as soon as the poisons are removed all these symptoms and disorders dis appear because there is nothing left to cause them. Nothing succeeds in this like Shaker Digestive Cordial, be- cause it prevents the undigested food from fermenting in the stomach and helps the stomach to digest it's food.

COFFEE WAR WAXING WARM.
Prices Lower Than Since Before the
 War.

New York, Nov 3O.-As a result of the war now being waged between the Arbuckle Coffee company and the Woolson Spice company, the sales of coffee during the week now ending have been far in excess of any similar period during the past year. Coffee, brokers declared today that their sales have been doubled. The Woolson Spice company, which is controlled by the Havemeyers, is selling Rio No. ' alt 9 cents per pound. Not to be out done the Arbuckles have made a re- duction in their prices. Coffee is now cheaper than it has been since before the war, say the old dealers, and if the fight lasts there is no telling at what price it will go for. Another reason for the low price is to be found in the enormous quantity of green coffee now here

CHOKED TO DEATH.
Aged Woman Murdered in Leaven-
 worth

Leavenworth, Kan, Nov. 30.-The discovery of the dead body of Mrs. C. A. Abke was made by her son, Will liam Abke, about o'clock yesterday afternoon, when he went to her home on South street and Fourth avenue to see her.
 Mrs. Abke lived in the house by her self, and was last seen alive by the neighbors Sunday. The body lay on the floor beside small bed, from which the woman had apparently fallen.
 The door to the house was open when the son approached yesterday, the lock having been broken and the house ransacked A mark around the neck indicates that Mrs. Abke was choked to death. The police are hard at work on the case.
 The coroner had the body removed to Davis morgue, where an inquest will be held today.

Frank La7,e heads a bright com
 pany from Hoyt's thaater, New York,
 and will be seen at Eihe opera house
 Friday, December 3, in Charles H.
 Hoyt's great comedy, "A Trip to
 Chinatown" The excellent reputa-
 tion this play enjoys, both in this
 country and in Australia, and the fact
 that Hoyt and Mckee never allow it
 to be presented only in the very best
 manner and by the very best people,
 is a guarantee of a good performance
 and should insure a full house. MT. Hoyt is one of the most prolific con- i tributors to the farce-comedy stage, and is exceedingly versatile and anus Ting in situations, and in the creation of characters, the counterparts of which are continually met in every 1 day life His "A Trip to Chinatown"
 makes no pretense to what it does
 not possess, but is certainly all that 1 it is designed to be-a string of rich fun from the rise to the fall of the
 curtain. A lolt of young people start
 out on lark, chaperoned by a devil
 ish widow, Mrs. Guyer,' and wind up i at masquerade ball. An eccentric
 character, 'Well and Strong who
 imagines that he is a dying man,
 manages to join the party, and they | try in vain to shake him. They ara also eluding an old bachelor, Ben Gay" uncle and guardian of one of
 the girls in the party, who is shyly trying Ito carry on a Irritation with the pretty widow, but is cut out by 1 Strong. Upon this basis of story,
 the play is built up of ludiicrous sit
 nations, just suggestive enough to be
 spicy, but not bold enough to be i wicked, and a lot of ingenious spa-
 cialties are woven in which give it a delightful variety. The people who
 surround MT. Lane and dance and
 romp and sing through the chain of 1 funny situations are all clever, and were each selected with special adap- 1 liability to their respective parts.
