THOUGHT THEM DEAD.
Lightning Struck Mother and Children
and Made Them Senseless.
Monroe Journal.)


The whole family of Mr.. Aaron Little
of Goose Creek, had an experience last
Thursday which they never will forget
Mr.. and Mrs. Little were in the field
and their two children, one a baby, were
sitting under a tree near by. A thunder
storm came up and Mrs. Little went to
get the children and go to the house. She
had just taken UP the baby when a bolt
of lightning came and struck her sense
less, stunning the children also. Mr.
Little looked up just in time to see his
whole family falling to the ground. His
horror may be more easily imagined than
described, for he thought them all dead.
All have recovered. The lightning
struck the tree, and running round the
trunk struck a bunch of plowshares and
scattered them about.

have been killed and wounded on both
sides. Some ranchmen who have been
aiding the Yaquis have been arrested.
While the troops seem to be masters

abled to confine the hostilities to the
Yaqui country only by the utmost vigi-
lance and an occasional passage at
arms with more or less casualty. No
fears are expressed that the govern

it is expensive in both blood and money

The foregoing agreement means that

from Swakop, near Walfsch bay,
which is a much pearer route from

HELD FOR MURDER
The Slayer of Richard Benneif TO
Be Tried at OECe.

Prescott, AriZ., Nov. 15.-(Special)-
At the preliminary examination of
Tom Walker for the murder of Richard
Bennett on Monday evening last at the
Phoenix saloon in this city, Justice
Moore held the prisoner TO answer to
the grand jury without bail at its next
sitting. The examination was direct
as to the killing of Bennett by the
prisoner, without going into details as
to the cause of the murder, the defense
declining to put any witnesses or to
make a statement.
1t is the intention now to have
Walker tried at this term of court
which will necessitate the calling of
an extra grand jury, the county officers
thinking this will be cheaper for the
county than to keep the prisoner in
jail for the next six months. After the
examination of a few witnesses on
behalf of the prosecution the court ad-
journed.
The body of Mr.. Bennett Will be in
tered in the cemetery here beside his
wife, who died here several years ago.

$50 o'clock this morning, to go to her
work, her husband followed her and
stood on the rear platform displaying
a revolver.
When Mrs. Kern observed him she
ran screaming out of the front door of
the car, and sought the protection of
about 200 wire mill employees. who had
just finished work on the night shift.
Kern hastened after her and twice
pulled the trigger of the pistol, but the
weapon failed to discharge.

banks organized under the state law
are only required to keep a 15 per cent
reserve.
The present activity and high rates
for money simply give the opportunity
for the banks to loan funds out lib
orally, as it is through interest rates
that money is obtained for dividends to
the stockholders of the institutions. and
as the activity in money at the present
time is caused by prosperity, they feel
justified in putting out all they can.
