The case of James Temple, the conductor
who killed Mexican assailant in the town
of Nogales, Ariz., promises to become an
international affair of some consequence.
Shortly after the killing Temple walked
across the Mexican boundary line to take
his dinner at restaurant, when he was
promptly arrested. He was taken to Jail
and charged with the murder of one Juan
Arvello, and access to him was denied his
friends. The services of Colonel Harlow
were employed and that gentleman in com
pany with United States Consul Darnell.
called upon President Sandoval. the chief
Mexican official. Mr.. Sandoval showed
them the following statute of the state Of
Sonora
Grimes committed in foreign territory
by Mexican against Mexicens or by for
eigner against Mexicans can be punished in
the state and according to its laws if the
following requisites occur
81. That the accused is in the state, be
it because he may nave come into it volun-
tarily or because extraIition may have
been obtained"
Mr.. Sandoval then stated that the matter
had been referred to Governor Corral. A
protest against Temples detention was then
wired by Consul Darnell to Governor Cor
rail- and the reply of the latter was that
the whole matter had been referred to the
minister of foreign affairs in the City Of
Mexico. The state department at Wash
ington was then informed of the case by
Consul Darnel ard ne received from Wash
ington the following reply:

At Prescott

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Nov. 23.--The first
killing to occur at Kingman, in Mohave
county, since the organization of the town
occurred few days ago. James Ryan, a
we'll known citizen OF Kingman, was shot
and instantly killed by Joe Lynch in the
saloon OF S. p. Thompson. James Ryan
came into the saloon in an intoxicated con-
dition and got into quarrel with Lynch.
After words between the men Ryan was
killed. Justifable homicide was the ver-
diet of the coroner's jury.
Sweminger, the man who is in jail at
Prescott accused of killing Burnell and
Murphy at Wiekenberg last week now
claims he was only witness to a shooting
affray between Burnell and Murphy. As
both Murphy and Burnell are dead, it may
be difficult to prove the contrary.

are always victims of nervous derange-

but their hidden meaning is an over-active
nerve center which should be at rest.
If you dream of love, success, happiness,
and awake to a realization of some dread
full and BILE barrier seek relief.
Dream no day-dreams of happiness when
you know 1t cannot be- but with firm and

Judge fustin, wife and son, arrived in the city last week, and the Judge at once entered upon the discharge of the duties of r. S. Commissioner, as the successor of Judge Jackson. We have known Judge Pustin since ls9l and can testify to his worth as d man and citi- zcu, and as lawyer he Ia one of the very best. He was actively engaged in the practice in the state of Oregon for the past twenty years and is regarded a. one of the leaders of the bar of that state. During our trip to Sitka we met number of persons who knew the Judge, all of whom spoke of him in the highest praise. "Wrangel has the best commissioner in Alaska" Is what We heard said by the lawyers a number of times while away, when speaking of the Judge.
 Mrs. Judge Tustin was very severely injured by fall before she left her Or egon home, and is still confined to her room, and since his arrival in the city, the Judge sprained his ankle, so that he is also laid up for repairs.

Tribute Of Respect.

SENECA, S. c., December s, 1898.
Tho following preamble and reso.
lutions were read and adopted at the
last regular communication of Sc
neca Lodge No. 1856 A. f. M. and re-
quosted to be sent to the KEowEE
COURIER for publication: ..,..y
Whereas Seneca Lodge No. 1856 has
been bereft Of ono Of it's highly
esteemed members, Bro. J. B. Wat
aon, who has been a member of this
Lodge so long and attended so many
communications, was cut down: in
the prime of life in mature manhood
so unexpectedly to one and all. The
Master called him from us a little
past the meridian of life, the beauty
and glory of the day of mans allot-
ted time. To use the language of
another eve expect the sun to 90
down in the evening, the flower TO
fade in the autumn and the stream
to freeze in the winter, but that the
sun should go down at noon, that the
flower should wither in the summer,
that tho stream of life should be
frozen before the chill of age had
come upon it, is reflection that sad
dens the soul in man." Bro. Watson
was born in Abbeville county, S. c.,
in 1914, died at Clemson College,
Ooonee county, S. O., October 22d,
1893, and was buried in Greenville
CITY, S. c., October 23d, 1898. The
brethreo of Seneca Lodge, not hav-
ing any notice of his death, which
occurred so suddenly and unexpeot-
edly, and to their regret he was not
buried with Masonic honors, not
even one of the brethren were pre-
sent at the funeral.
Resolved 1st. That in this sad be-
reavement link in tho chain of our
mystic tic has been broken, the social
and moral relation have been severed
and we are called upon to mourn the
loss of friend and brother.
Resolved I'd. That this tribute be
spread upon our minute book and
his name, with tho date of his birth
and death, be inscribed on blank
page of the same, and the Lodge be
drapcd in mourning for tho usual
time.
Resolved Sd. That the heartfelt
sympathy of the Lodge be extended
to the family of Capt. G. T.. Watson,
u brother of the deceased, commend.
ing them to Him who doeth all
things well, and the Secretary be
ordered to forward copy of this
preamble and resolutions to him, and
