ples, the product of a small orchard which he set out there four years ago.
 The trees bore this year for the first time. The apples are of the Ben Davis variety, of good size and flavor equal to the apples of Michigan, Pennsyl- vania or New York. MT. Cook is a cat tleman and not a horticulturist, so he has paid little attention to his young orchard, but has proved that apples may be raised in at least some parts of Arizona equal to in quality the product of any locality in the world. He has also raised some peaches which have all the delfciousness of the famous Delaware peach.
 A TRAVELLING MANS DEATH. = Mr. John F. Millar, Pacific coast agent of Leonard & Ellis of New York, man ufacturers of lubrieating oils, died at the Hotel Adams last night of pneu- monia. MT. Millar arrived in the city last Saturday night ill from a relapse, and it was soon suspected that his sickness would prove fatal. He had travelled through Arizona for more than ten years, always accompanied by w. J. Barrett, the. representative of John A. Roebling Sons Co.,, and who was with him when he died. MT. Mil lar was B years old and one of the best known and best liked travelling men on the road
 GARCIA TAKEN TO YUMA. = United States Marshal Griffith and Assistant Marshal Wells, who have been attending federal court, left town last night. They took with them Juan Garcia, sentenced to one year in the penitentiary for selling liquor to an Indian. The marshal accompanied him to Yuma and MT. Wells went directly to Tucson. All the immediate business of the court here is ended, though the Irvine Kozik and Keithline eases will be tried at some time during the term, though not likely until after the session of the supreme court, which will convene on January 9. The mar shals officers in the meantime will be kept busy by Chinese cases at Solomon vile, Globe, Nogales and Tucson.
 FARM AND RESTAURANT. A. J. Hanson and his wife. Aurora Seass- Hanson, yesterday filed a paper in dis trict court disclosing a transaction of which few people had been aware. The action was to recover $200 paid l.. H. DeMers as an installment upon the purchase price of half interest in the DeMers cafe. At the same time the plaintiff gave note TOT S(UO at 10 per cent interest, pay able next month, for the bal ance. In the meantime they con- tributed beef amounting to s5955. The complaint states that the defendant represented Io them that the place was worth $4,000 and that the daily profits ranged from $5 to s2O, so that by the time the note fell due it's principal and interest would be exceeded by their ac- crued profits. Upon these representa- tions, the complaint says, they decided to embark in the restaurant business, paid their solid cash, issued their promissory note and parted with their meat in good faith. Last month they claimed to have discovered that there were downs as well as ups in the res taurant life. They instituted an iD- vestigation with the result that they determined to keep on farming, hence the suit to recover the cash and note and acquire Day for the meat.

THE MARIA TERESA.
Bahama Fishermen Find Her After She Has Been Abandoned by
 the Grew in Charge.
THEY CLAIH HER AS 4 PRIZE
British Admiralty will Take pos session and a Court of Inquiry
 Will Investigate.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Oficials ofthe navy departm ent were interested in the news from Nassau gleariyidentifying the steamship lying off Cat island at the Maria Teresa. The legal stctus of the vessel has been considered cursorily and in the opinion of the department the title of the United States to her IS unimpair- ed, not withstendng it was necessary to abandon her for time There may be some questions involved as it the pay ment of salvage to the Bahamas fisher men, but that dependsin large measure upon what they have done. if they have simply been .ooting the vessel, then not only are they not entitled to salvage, but the goods stolen may be recovered
 On the other hand, fthe fishermen an chored the ship in smooth water and made any endeaYor t9 ering her in prob ably they wouli have good claim for salvage The vessel, however, is not sub iect to detention on this account, in ternational law exemptns national ves- sells from seizure on any score in time O.! peace. In such cases the salvors might, after allowing the vessel to proceed, pre- sent their to the government Of the Un- ited States through diplomatic repsent- atives of the British governmet.
 From the accom- receiv5ditis is feared the damage the vessel sustained throngli the storm and probable pounding upon the coral reefs outlining Cat island add ed to the wounds received n action when the ship was snnk originally, are suffi- cient to rendes her entirely valueless Nothing but expert examination can de- termine this point. but a5 the Merritt experts are alrtadr on the way to Cat island that queslion will soon be decided
 The navy depaf lnient has decided that conrt of nqTIgy shall be held to determine whether the abandonment of the Teresa at sea Was iusGiable and if | not who was respousibls.

BROKE THR MULES HEART

""Long about the time barbed wire
 fence came ont, said the farmer as We
 sat on the steps after supper for a
 smoke, "I had a North Carolina mule
 that made no end of trouble He was
 big and strong and willing to work. but
 when he was turned loose he'd sidle up
 to fence and begin to rub, and there wasn't anything on the farm that would stand agIn him. He'd rub down five rods of rail or board fence in as mmnv minutes, and thrown clubs at him was 1 like tryin' to hurt rat with Q straw, Ton see that hogpen down there?"
 "vas."
 Well, the one he rubbed down one day was about three times as strongly built. He just got his shoulder nnder corner of It and tore it all to pieces. l put up post in the barnyard fer hiin. l dug down seven feet and was all day wedgIn, the post in and yet he l rubbed It down in ten minutes.
 "He rubbed down all the gates, tip ped the smokehouse oyer and broke of fifteen fruit trees and 1 finally had to tie him Tn the barn. d have sold that mule for half his worth, when I saw some O the barbed wire at the store. 1 got en ugh to go aroun the barnvard and then turned him loose one evenin', The crftter had heard the work goin' n F,h trh hax r,J Ho looked all around to see what had nap pened. Then he walked all sronnd that fence to look and to smell. and when he finally turned to me I could almost here him sayin':
 '"Here's sGlnethin' new and I'll have eeap o'fun in the next quarter of ar honr'
 "He took a long breath and fell over on the fence and began to rub. but it didn't last long! The talks raked and astonished him and he drew of to in- vestigate. Then he tried it agin and got mad. He figured ont that it was put-np job. but he thought he could beat the game. He kept it up for half an hour and you'd have thought he'd heen clawed rom ears to tail by forty vii dcats.
 He kent up a squeaIIn' and bray in as he rubbed, but by and the sounds died away to moans aud sighS and we saw that he was a licked mule. When he lad got enough he backed of and l hung his head, and left him out there all nighs to consider things. Nobody ever saw such scratched up mule in all the state of iennessee.''
 "And it cured him?" inquired
 q Yes, it did. When morning came he hadn't moved out of his tracks. I | went out to lead him into the barn and he lifted his head and gave me look of reproach shall never forget to the day of my death. Drought him pail of water and some hay. but presently he gave groan and fell over dead, and the tears were running down his nose as he feil. That mules heart was brok. en, sir-regularly broken.
