: STORIES OF HEUREAUX.
Character of the Late President of Sar
Domingo.

Character Of the Late President of Sar
Domingo.
Many interesting stories are told OF
the late President HeureauX OF San Do
niingo. 1t was observed that when the
first announcement was made of his as
sassination the consul representing the
! San Domingo government in the United
States, at New York, said that he would
want official confirmation of the report
before saying anything about 1T. This
| statement by the consul recalls the fact
that some years ago Heureaux, who
was an absolute dictator instead of a
| president went out into the country
| somewhere, two or three days distant
from telegraph lines, and caused the re-
| port to be sent out broadcast that he
had been assassinated. The result was
that his many enemies, including the
army officers and people of influence in
his household were jubilating and Gel
ebrating the event with great glee. He
took this method of finding out just
who were his enemies and who were his
friends, and the result was that he had
every person who was jubilating over
his death whether a personal friend or
enemy, killed when he came back
Another story is told of where he sus-
pected a regiment of being dlsloyal to
him. He ordered this regiment out on
parade, and surrounded it with the rest
of the army. He thereupon made a
speech to the soldiers, saying that all
the officers Of this regiment were found
to be dsloyal, ana accordingly ordered
the men to kill the officers. This was
done very promptly the men knowing
that their only hope of life was in obey
ing the order. He then told the men
that non-c commissioned officers were dis
loyal and ordered them shot, which was
done by the regiment. He then divi-
ded the regiment up into squads and
had one squad kill another until the en-
tire regiment was destroyed. This reg
iment had joined in a slight rebellion
raised by some opponent of HeureauN,
and he had taken this method of rid
ding himself Of 1t. 1t Is needless to say
that the balance of the army, either
through fear or affection remained 10y
a to him after that.
An officer of the United States govern
ment was some years ago visitor in
San Domingo, and became acquainted
with President HeureauX, and relates
interesting conversations that he had
with him, This visitor asked him If
he did not expect that he might be as
sassinated some time on account of the
method of his government. He replied
that probably he would be killed some
time but his method was the only one
by which he could govern those people,
and that in killing off suspected enemies
he was merely prolonging his own life,
He predicted that the time would come
when he would, of course, be killed, but
meanwhile, he said, he would protect
himself and his government to the best
of his ability,
The visitor also asked him what would
be the result if some man in the army
or some man other than he should be-
come a candidate for president at the
elections that are held from time to
time, and should make speeches against

the management of Heureaux. Her
reauX shrugged his shoulders and said
that such thing was not likely to oc-
cur. But suppose it should occur?"
persisted the visitorh HeureauX made a
motion with his thumb across his
throat and without saying word emit
ted a sound like s-s-s-s-t, and then
Srinned in fiendish sort of way.
HeureauX never came to the United
States saying that in the States he
would not be regarded as president of
San Domingo, but would be considered
as negro.-Washingto Star.

NOT As GOOD.

A poor excuse Is sometimes better
than none, but the latest excuse for the
conviction of Dreyfus isn't as good as
none. 1t is based on the so-called Null
house incident Dreyfus visited Null
house In Alsace during the German mil
ltary maneuvres, and it is asserted by
army officers that he could not have
been there at that time without the
knowledge and consent of the Germans.
His own explanation of his presence
there is natural enough. Mulhouse was
his home, There his father lay sick
and not expected to live, and Dreyfus
went to visit him without asking per-
mission, though it is said that leave
would have been readily granted OF
so little consequence had this Mulhouse
incident seemed that Maitre Demange
omitted all mention of it in his sum-
ming up of the case. At best, it was
only circumstantial evidence, for no d.
rect communication between Dreyfus
and the Germans was proved, but on
the contrary, there was the absolute de-
NAL of the German government of any
connection with him through any Of its
agents But it appears that the judges
thought he wavered in his testimony as
to his movements while at Mulhouse,
and consequently they sent him to pris-
on for ten years.

The Bryan Mines to Ship Ore
From the Globe Silver Belt.l

Mrs. Alfred Kinney returned last Monday from her mines (the Bryan group near Riverside, where she made arrangements to ship ore to a custom smeiter. Two car loads of ore had been sorted and were to be ship ped as soon as the sacks, ordered at Tucson, arrived. This lot is to be hauled to Casa Grande for shipment. and subsequent shipments will be made from Picaeho station.
 The Bryan mines are well developed and have large bodies of high grade copper glance and carbonate ores ex- posed; 1t is the intention to ship 100 tons or more of ore monthly. A new and important strike of glance ore was made recently in one of the claims of the group. Experts who have exam ined the Bryan mines pronounce them very valuable property, and Mrs. Kifney has received several handsome offers for them, but considering the large amount of high grade ore in sight and the moderate cost of mining and delivering it at the railroad, Mrs. Kin ney concluded that it was a better proposition to hold on to them, the shipment of ore promising to be very profitable. A quantity of Trails and a car have been ordered, to facilitate the handling of the ore
 Considerable chloriding is being done in the Riverside district and ore shipments will be largely increased at ar early date.
 Mrs. Kinney found the road between Globe and She county line in excellent conditiors better than she had ever seen it .e5-for which the Gila county supervisors and the contractor who repaired it are deserving of praise. The road in Gila county is in marked contrast to that portion in Pinal county, which is in wretched condi- tion.
 Livestock is looking well; cattle are round and sleek, and feed is abundant in the Riverside country.

The ancients believed that rheuma- tism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack of sciatic or inaammatory rheumatism will agree that the infiction is de- moniac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Cham berlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement. One applica- ton relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its cost. For sale by Brockway's Pharmacy.

THE following from the Tucson Star is as true as gospel: Whenever you hear anyone trying to discount another or by iuuendoes attempting to iujure his business or reputation, keep him talking and you will discover that he has been assisted by that same in- dividual. As Couking once said, 1.-The bitterest enemies I have made are those have assisted to office who were not worthy of the place." It is the very selfish man who generally goes back on his benefactors and these you often find ia political life. The same facts obtain in nearly every channel of business.

IFrom the Denver RepubIlcan. Nav 2l.l

(From the Denver Republican. May 2l.l
 W. P. Dunham, owner of the Scottish Chief and other properties at Cripple Creek, last night acquired the controll- ing interest in the properties of the Wilson Creek Mining and Milling com pany. Though no exact figures were given out, it is understood that at least $25O, ,000 in cash changed. hands.
 A long consultation, lasting nearly the entire day, was held yesterday at the Brown Palace hotel between the owners of the properties, w. P. Dun ham being present for the Scottish Chief and other holdings interested, and George Wallace and J. NJ. Bonney for the Wilson Creek Mining and Mill ing Company.
 This deal will have an important influence on one of the largest and most protracted mining lawsuits in the history of Colorado mining. By this move ". P. Dunham concentrates all the interests opposed to the Hull City Placer in his own hands. He now holds all the lode claims which are included in the limits of the placer claim located by the Hull City Placer Company and the many-sided fight which has been waged for many years against the Placer company will now be directed by single management and will be backed by the same capital ists.
 1 During late years the Wilson Creek company has been the most important interest carrying on litigation against the Hull City company. Lack of funds forced it to cease activity. With these added interests on his side, Mir. Dun- ham materially strengthens his posi- tion.
 Denver capital is behind the interests united under Mir. Dunham's name.S Il is understood that the most influential mining men of the city have finger in the transaction. This means that another important mining office will be added to the Denver Mining ex. change, and as important one re- moved from the exchange at Colorado Springs.
 The object of the combined interests is the complete cancellation of the patent held by the placer company The situation now is such that the fight can be pushed vigorously, and assurance is given that this will bt done. Two attorneys have been added to the list already in the service of the Durham party. c. J. Hughes, Jr. will act for the Scottish Chief, and Tyson s. Dimes fer the Wilson Creek company.
 In his lease on the Longfellow mine, Mir. Dunham has just made rich strike. The ere was come upon at a depth of 135 feet, in She east cross-cut It is a sevenfoot vein, which assays as high as 8, 900 to the ton.

Between 10 and II o'clock last
 Wednesday night, a burglar broke into the rear of the Harvey House, at Ash Fork. Several employees of the house saw him and rushed in and captured him, and, it is said. tied him to chair, but did not search him for arms. The burglar requested to be allowed to walk over to the water cooler for a drink. His request was granted. When he got there he whipped out big revolver, held his captors up and ran out through the door. The dishwasher ran behind the couater, grabbed revolver and shot the robber through the right shoulder as he passed out. The dishwasher ran after the robber when the latter turned and fired, shooting the dish washer in the right breast, the bull let passing through the body, rang ing down and emerging from the lower part of the back. The burglar escaped, boarded a freight train, was captured at Kiugman and brought back to Ash Fork. District Attorney Ling left for Ash Fork yesterday to take the dishwasher's last statement, as his wound is considered fatal. Under Sheriff Johns left for Ask Fork this morning and will return with the robher. He came from Tucson via Phoe- nix, and was suspected in both places of being a safe cracker.-[ Prescott Courier.

United Effort Needed.

From the Phoenix Enterprise
 Every citizen of Arizona should use his influence toward securing aid, either governmental or private capital, to be applied to the impounding of water in this territory. This is not a local question by any means. It is one ofyital interest to all the people of the territory. Those engaged in mining and other pursuits remote from the agricultural sections have a like interest with the farmer, as increase of the arable area adds materially to tn e taxable wealth, besides, it will largely increase the agricultural output and thus cheapen the value of provisions and products, hay grain and vegetables, that now are bought in the mountain camps at high price.
 Our delegate to congress, Gen. J. F. Wilson, is bending every effort to secure the necessary information to enable him to properly present our claims for recognition by the general government. In this work he should have the assistance of all who are in- terested in the welfare of Arizona.
