That is one Of the sublimest lines in all
literature. It is the final definition of love
by the worlds greatest reader of the human
mind Shakespeare. Nearly all women
who truly love, owe In this sublime way.
Men seldom do.
Woman's most glorious endowment Is
the power to awaken and hold the pure
and honest love of a worthy man. When
she loses It and still loves on, no one in
the wide world can know the heart agony
ste endures. The woman who suffers
from weakness and arrangement of her
special womanly organism soon loses the
power to sway the heart of a man. Her
general health suffers aud she loses her
good looks, her attractiveness, her amia-
bility and her power and prestige as a
woman. DR.. X. V. Pierce, of Buffalo. NY,
with the assistance of his staff OF able ply
%sicians, has prescribed for many thousands
of women. He has devised a perfect and
scientific remedy for women's ailments. It
is known as DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. II is a positive specific for all weak
nesses, diseases, disorders, displacements,
irregularities, and facilitating drains pc

The cattle sanitary board Of Ari-
IONA, after refusing several times to

at last consented to put it on record.
Messrs. Chase s. McCabe are glad to

Arizona, and when one is sold there
they want to get the money for IL.
They have had several steers sold over
there, and have not always got the
price for them, because the brand was
not recorded. Now if they do not get
pay for stray steers they arc in a shape
to make a row with the sanitary board.

About a month ago Mrs. A. f. Nc
Donald, wife OF Bishop Mcdonald o.
the Mormon church, while alone in
her store at Round Valley, about ffty
miles from Casas Grandes, was killed
and the store robbed. The Mormons
were aroused and a party took the
trail. The Eel Paso Times reports that
the Mormons found that the murder
ers were a couple of men from the
"Black Jack" gang and that last week
the Mormons found the camp which
the American officers and Mexican
army had been hunting for so long.
They made a dash on the camp and
when they captured it all OF the
gang, nine men, we're dead. This is
the most plausible story of death to
the "Black jack gang that has ever
been told. The MormoDs have a way
Of going after outlaws and gettiug
them that is quite convincing. Nine
years ago this spring some Mormons
went after some horse thieves in this
county, and the story has never been
printed. 1t is TO- given not as news
but as history. Horse thieves had
been bothering the Mormons in North
ern Mexico, aud aposse was sent after
them. One afternoon in May, 1889,
WIN. Suggs and Fred Myers came to
the Chase s. McCabe ranch in the Ami
mas, watered and started north.
About dark four Mormons appeared
at the ranch and inquired for these
men. They said they we're horse
thieves and they wanted to arrest
them. Mr.. Chase said that In all
probability the men were camped at a
windmill a few. miles north Of the
ranch. The Mormons asked Mr..
Chase to go with them and guide
them, they thought that If they could
get to the men at day break they
could arrest the men before they woke
up, without any trouble. Mr.. Chase,
Bud Moore and VIM. Stetson went
with the Mormons. They started in
time to get to the windmill before
daybreak. The leader of the Nor
mons instructed his men just how to
jump on to the horse thieves, provid-
ing they found them asleep, and ar
rest them before they could get their
weapons. AS % as it commenced
to grow light all were watching the
plains for a sight of the camp. 1t was
discovered a few hundred yards from
where the watchers were waiting.
They walked quietly over to where
the men were sleeping, covered with
their blankets, the Mormans in adj
vance. The learder went up on me
side of the sleeping men aud one Of
his companions on the other side, they
carefully drew down the blankets to
see il these we're the right men, and
as soon as they saw they had found
the horse thieves, Instead of attempt
ing TO arrest the men the Mormons
commenced shooting. The two horse
thieves were dead before they had
time to awaken. The Mormons took
the stolen horses, told Mr.. Chase and
his companions that they thought
there would be no more trouble from
these men, and started back for Mexi-
co. To say that Mr.. Chase was sur
prised at the way the Mormons ''ar-
sested" the horse thieves would be to
express 1t mildly. Mr.. Chase went
back to his ranch after picks and
shOvels and buried the men where
they were killed, wrapping them in
their own blankets. There was NO
more horse stealing in that section of
the country from that time nntil the
"Black Jack" gang turned out.
