 Recommended Selected.

New York, April 1.-The board on auxiliary cruisers were all in town again yesterday. The three members of the board who went to Boston on Tuesday to inspect the steamer Shawmut reported that the vessel would not do.

 These reports having been made, the board began the preparation of a tab ulated list of all the vessels recom- mended to the navy department up to date.

When an adjournment was taken at o'clock yesterday afternoon all the vessels recommended up to the beginning of this week had been put on the list.

 There is no doubt," said he, "of the result. Our people are tired of repub- lican administration, both state and national, and will give an overwhelm- ing verdict against them at the polls. We will carry the legislature and elect a democrat to the United States senate beyond a doubt.

BITTEN BY A RATHER.
Michael BOurgnon in a Precarious Co

Michael BOurgnOn in q PrecariOuS Con
dition-
Michael BOurgnon, a clerk at Good
mans drug store was bitten by a rattle
snake at the Curio last night and is
now lying in a very precarious condi-
tion from the effects of the poison in
jected into his system. He is a French
man and Wfthal a good looking and
well educated young man. He is also
something of a naturalist and has
propensity for not only studying the
habits but playing with reptiles and
insects of a poisonous nature usually
given wide berth by the common PEG
pie. His knowledge of such things
and his lack of fear has enabled him
to successfully do these things on
many occasions but yesterday was the
exception that proved the good rule
that it is foolish to take unnecessary
chances when nothing is to be gained.
1t is said that he has often visited the
Curio and ON more than one occasion
fOndled the big snake whose turn came
at last. Bourgnon thrust his hand in
to the snake box and caught the big
fellow a few inches below the head
with his right hand. proceeding to
stroke him tenderly with the left hand
in a manner however resented by the
reptile. Eventually his hand came
within striking distance of the reptile
which was not slow to plant his fangs
in the large blOOdvessel near the
knuckIe joint of the first finger. He
quietly put the snake back into the
box and FASTENED to the drug store
where the wound was opened, ammon-
ia injected and the various other treat
ments known to medical men employ

ist was summoned and the patient pIac
ed in his charge. The arm began to
swell at once and in a little while was
of a dark blue and purple color almost
to the shoulder and twice its natural (
size. Friends worked all the night /
with the patient and great fear was
expressed that the poison would reach
the heart. However ait noon today
there was no apparent change in the
mans condition, the swelling and dis
coloratiOn remains the same and he is
suffering intense pain and tossing I'M
easily on his couch. The only indica-
ton of Improvement thus far seems to
be the fact that he gets no worse. He
will probably be removed to the Sis
ters' hospital this afternoon. His broth

hoped that he will recover as he is Il
most estimable young man. but it is
safe to say that if he ever does he will
hereafter possess a profound respect
for rattle tailed reptiles and particu-
arly the species known at Crotalus
Durissus.

A MEXICAN MURDERED.
Pedro Perez Killed Raymundo Valen
cia Last Night.

Pedro Perez went to the Sheriff's Of
fee last night and gave himself up stat
ing that he had just killed Raymundo
Valencia near the ranch of Pedro So
toello across the river south of Phoenix
He was taken into custody and Coro-
nor tombstone Immediately summoned
a jury and repaired to the scene OF the
tragedy where the remains were view
ed and an adjournment itoaken till this
morning at 10 o'clock in the Justices
office At that hour they again as
sembeld and after examining the eye
witnesses who consisted only OF
brother of the deceased and a brother
of the man that did the shooting
brought in verdict that deceased
came to his death from the result of
a pistol sT1ot, fired by Pedro Perez
A complaint was Immediately made
out charging the man with murder.
He was arraigned this afternoon and
his examination was set for Monday
morning at ten o'clock.
The dead man was shot three times
once in the forearm, once In the upper
arm and the fatal shot which took ef-
feet in the inner corner of the left
eye.
The remains were not brought to
town but were turned over to the
friends of the deceased by whom they
were buried today in the grave yard
south of the river and without the ser
vices of an undertaken.
The story of the killing as related by
Perez and his friends Is that the de-
ceased who was a neighbor of Perez
had won the affections of the latter
daughter and in his attentions had ov>
erstepped the bounds of propriety so
far as to suggest the early ringing OF
the wedding bells. Perez hastily
sought out his prospective son-in-law
and in order to give strength and cour-
age to the young man should he falter
on the threshold of so happy a state
as matrimony is supposed to be, buck
led on a As calibre Colts revolver the
dignity of which is reputed to be of
a persuasive nature. He was accom-
panied by his brother and found the
Valencia lad with his brother at the
scene where a few moments later the
ira gedy was enacted. He suggested to
Valencia the propriety of an early wed
ding but the later seemed uncOncerned.
Further argument on the part OF the
irate father only ELECTED from Valen-
ella a profane suggestion that the old
man depart at once for region re-
puted to be hotter than either Tucson
or Yuma. Perez therupon gave him
the contents of the revolver. He only
reported one shot to the officers but
three were found in the body. The
friends of Valencia tell a story some
what in variance from the above
the details of which will doubtless be
set forth at the examination
