CHEWING TOBACCO.
American Tobacco Co. Adds Standard
Navy Plug to Its Brands.

Every since tobacco leaves were first
pressed together and sold as plug to-
bacco for chewing, there has been
loss when the tobacco manufactured
in this form became old, as it harden
ed and was unfit for the purpose for
which it was intended
a very important discovery and I'M
provement was made a short time ago
by the Brown Tobacco Company, of
st. Louis; placed on the market by
them as Standard Navy Plug" tobac-
co, which, on account of its distinct
character and quality, gained quickly
a widespread popularity and large sale,
it's popularity being that it never
hardens or loses its pliability.
SO important, in fact, is this new
process in manufacturing tobacco that
the American Tobacco Company, of
New York, have been negotiating with
the concerned that owned it, and last
week the final papers We're signed
and the American Tobacco Company
bought outright the entire plant. pro-

bacco Company.-St Louis Republic.

Bernado Sesmas was tried in Justice
Kincaid's court today and discharged,
the alleged crime being child stealing.
4 great many years ago he lived in
Yuma county with a Mexican woman
in manner not provided for by law.
Their love was crowned by the advent
of a little girl, Notwithstanding the
Edmunds law made no provision for
their happiness. About six months
after the child was born and about five
years ago. the woman left her first
choice and came to Phoenix, where she
was married to Francisco Ramirez,
now a resident of Tempe. The woman
died not long since before which sad
event she told her husband that Ses-
mas had been cruel to her babe and
asked him to provide for it. This he
promised and fulfilled his vow till a
day or so since, when Sesnas, who
had heard of the woman's death, learn
ed of the whereabouts of the child.
went to the place of residence and took
it away by force. Meantime Ramirez
saws the woman had also told him that
he was the father of the child. The
Justice not being able to pass upon
that question clearly could not see his
way clear to hold the alleged father.

Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railroad,
was struck and killed by an engine
late yesterday afternoon about thirty
five miles above the city. The killing

ley Mr. Davis entered the employ of
the S. r, P. & P. company but three
days before his death. He was riding
bicycle down the track toward Phoe-
nix when train MOB, freight running
as an extra, approached from behind.
The engineer saw him. but naturally
supposed he knew enough to get off
the track and was expecting him to
do so until he got so close he could not
slow up in time ito save his life The
train was stopped Immediately but the
man was dead when the train men got
to him. The remains We're brought to
the city on the train and turned over
to Undertaken w. A. Davis, in whose
parlorS they are still being held await
ing the result of inquiries as to his
friends and relatives. Coroner John
stone was notified and ait once held an
inquest, the jury bringing in a verdict
| in accordance with the above facts
and generating the train men from all
blame in the matter. A broken whis-
| key bottle was found ON the person of
the dead man, and no accounting for
his peculiar actions is possible except
it be on the theory of intoXication
