DIED IN WASHINGTON.

The Washington CD. e. Post of Tuesday, August 23, gives the follow ing account of the death of William R. Tappan The deceased came to Phoenix in the fail of 1897 and appar- ently steadily improved in this climate. He left here about month ago on a visit to his home. While the account in the Post says he was brought home," the fact is, from al, accounts, that he was abundantly able to take care of himself up to the time Of his leaving. The Post says:
 "Mr. William H. Tappan died at the residence of his father, Mir. N. A. Tappan, 1907 o. street, Sunday night of consumption. MT. Tappan was 27 years old, and contracted consumption from exposure several years ago. In the fail of 1897 he went 10 Arizona, hoping to be benefited by it's dry eli mate, but the disease was too deeply rooted to be arrested.
 He Was brought home a few days ago, and the change appeared to do him good. Sunday evening he was sitting up conversing with his father when he suddenly sank back in his chair with a gasp and died. The funeral will take place from the family residence tomorrow afternoon at , o'clock "

SHOT IN THE ARM.
A Young Nimrod Hunting Doves Hit:
 Larger Game

The reckless handling of a 22-caliber rihe yesterday afternoon got Manuel Parra, about 13 years old. in trouble. and if nothing more, at least secured him nights lodging n tine sheriff's office as a punishment
 Manuel is the son of Francisco Para, well known blacksmith. and according to his own story. was out hunting doves in the vicinity of the Maricopa & Phoenix stock yards. AL varado Torres, another Mexican lad of tender age, was in the same vicinity and whether accidentally or not was struck in the fleshy part of the right forearm by leaden pellet from the tiny rife. The bullet imbedded itself and at last accounts had not been re- covered. Young Para says he does not know how the other boy came to be hit. He was hunting doves, he says, and that is all he knows about the occurrence
 Young Torres tells a different story. however. The young hunter in his. pr.de and exultation over having sucb splendid weapon, offered to bet thai he could hit Torres. In his youthful eXuoerance. Torres says. the other wanted to give S5 for the privilege. but this offer, notwithstanding it's gen. erositE, was declined by the hunted Para. he says. shot his weapon at him anyway. The bullet went true to it's aim.
 The wounded boy, accompanied by hlS mother and several of his sisters immediately paid the sheriff's office a vlslt and entered complaint against the young Nimrod. The latter's father was also there and endeavored to com promlae with the complainants. The

reaching the junction shower threat ened and we sought shelter among s6me bhled hay covered with a tar raulin. It rainea t5rfents, but we kept dry, had a good sleep and got out stiff and sore next morning. It rained again in the forenoon, so we struck up conversation with the agent, who is the Wells-Fargo agent, postmaster, grocer, etc, as well. In a short time we ascertained that we ought to have been acquainted long ago and we became his guest.
 About 4 o'clock we tnie and myself) started for Nrickenburg, reachint there about S:50 D. m. The first one we encountered was a casual. yet for mer acquaintance, in the person of MT. Charles Case, who runs saloon, bachelors hall, etc, close to the rail- road station, and we became his guest for the night. This night we reposed in large double spring bed, which MT. Case kindly placed at our dis posal. And again 1t rained nard | During the evening we met and l made the acquaintance of Samue, Powell, who entertained the company
 
 with morals and more with none; but withal it was a pleasant evening. MT Case exhibited some fabulously rich gold ore from claims which he owns about seven miles from town. MT Powell also has very valuable claims located about thirteen miles from town. We made the acquaintance of l MT. F. c. White, superintendent oi the Ardath Gold Mining company, who is engaged in putting up mill on this property, about nine miles from town We had an invitation to go out witt him to take look over the ground anc workings, but the weather was threat ening, and in the morning it rainet hard for several he urs. starting ths Hassayan,Sa booming; consequently we abandoned the trip. A Denver company is putting up a mill abou twelve or fifteen miles from town, I IS claimed that within a radius O thirty miles in the San Domingo dis trlct. in which all are located. betweel 350 and 400 men are at work. The or we saw IS certainly extremely rich easy of access and close to railroad ia cllltles. In the writer's mind the tim is not far distant when this section will be developed into one of the great est mining districts in the west
 MT. Powell is well known miner and he made the assertion that wit the judicious application of capital tn San Domingo district could in a shor space of time produce enough gold t
 hquidate the national debt, and to de fray the expenses of an army and nav to vanquish the world. It is reason able to expect that with next winter influx of capital and capitalists som great transformations will take plac in this section, as it is easily access
 lhle. Without enduring any grea
 hardship the whole district can b carefully looked over.
 MT. Case as well as Mir. Powell ar : ardent gold republicans and solid ad minlsfratlon men, and the soun money democrats are numerous. UBIQUITOUS

group stood beneath the shade of the umbrella trees and talked the matter over at length, but the women were obdurate and the effort at compromise proved unavailing. Young Para was brought to the sheriff's office and left there in custody
 Dr. Stroud examined the wounded boy late in the afternoon and found that the wound is apparently of a trivial nature No inconvenience is suffered by young Torres, there being no soreness apparent when the arm is moved or muscles manipulated. The chances are that the wound will heal over and give no trouble
 In all probability formal com plaint will be made today before Jus tice Johnstone against young Para.

A silly theater manager in New York city who wished to advertise his house put a Spanish flag across the threshold, so that the audience would have to step upon it as they passed in. It had the desired effect and drew a great, roaring crowd around the door, q crowd that could only be dispersed by the police. The manager degraded him. self and his country when he did such 8 senseless thing. No good end could possibly be served by it, only bitter ami mosities aroused. A deed of that kind is almost sufficient cause for Spain to demand of this nation a disavowal and an apology. The towards who would in suit another nations flag are as rule the last ones to fight for their own if it is in danger.

The settlement of the controversy be- tween the United States and Great Britain in regard to the Alaskan bound ary is a credit to Great Britain and ex- ceedingly satisfactory to Us. Our con- tention has been that the three marine leagues inland from the shore which marked the line between the long nar row strip of southern Alaska and Britt ish America should begin at the main- land of Alaska and follow the inlets of the ocean. The British contention has been that the three marine leagues should begin at the islands along the Alaskan shore and not the mainland and that the line should cross the middle inlets instead of following inland their windings. Plainly we were right and they were wrong, and they have had the grace to give up their unreasonable claim and listen to common sense. The boundary follows the summit of the mountains ill the southern part, and that will give the British the eastern slope of Chilkoot and White passes. The miner will therefore at one step on the top of these passes cross from American to British territory.

That truly original genius Governor Pingree has no mercy on the impecu- nious state legislator. The governor called the legislature together to devise means of increasing taxes on railroads in the state and thus getting more reve- nue out of them. Then he was harsh enough to turn around and issue a proc lamation to the representatives and senators that they must under no, con sideration accept free passes to the state capital from the roads they were ex- pected to levy increased taxes on.

INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

Governor Cnlberson. of Texas, who is likely to succeed Senator Mills in the United States Senate, does not agree with Mr. Mills that itis treach- cry to Democratic principles to favor protection on certain lines. In re- cent statement, intended as a reply to Senator MilPs assertion on this subject, Governor Culberson says that the advocacy of duties on inn ports of raw materials has not all ways been considered undemoeratie. On the contrary. he shows that the tariff of 1S46, known as the Walker tariff, and considered a safe Demo- cratic tariff standard, placed duties on most of the raw materials. Some surprise has sbeen expressed at the probability that the State of Texas will be represented in the Senate by a man having the broad views on the protective question which are ex- pressed by Governor Culberson. but there is not so much occasion for surprise when it is rememberd that three of the Texas delegation in the House voted for the Dingley act, and that between thirty and forty votes from the South were cast for that measure in House and Senate.

The rapid growth of manufactur- ing interests in various parts of the country has resulted in renewed ac- tiyity in railroad building. This is especially true in the South, where it is estimated that three thousand miles of new railroad will be built during the coming year. More than forty million dollars of bonds are said to have been foated in Europe for this purpose, and this amount, coupled with the large sums being constantly invested and paid out in that section in the new manufactur- ing enterprises established and put in operation, will greatly add to it's prosperity.

The contracts which the Southern cotton mills and other manufactrr ing interests of that section have re- gently made for the sale of their pro- ducts in China and Japan are att tracing much attention in the com- mcrcial world. The interest which attaches to them is increased by some figures recently brought to the surface with reference to our export trade to China and Japan, in which it is shown that there has been an in- crease of more than one hundred per cent. in our sales to those two coun- tries during the past year, a very large proportion of it coming from south of the Mason and Dixon line.
