A Painful Coincidence.


 Saturday and left for Lordsburg Sunday to meet his son, John, who recently met with painful accident at Phoenix, an account of which was published in the ERA at the time. They returned Mon day and John is at the home of his father in North Clifton. It will proba- bly, be three weeks yet before John will be able to walk without crutches. The Phoenix Republican had the following account of the accident:
 In a suite of rooms at the Ford hotel two men occupy as comfortably as they can couple of beds, which, to many in the city, would appear luxurious couches, but which to them are getting as hard as the hard side of plank. Both men are suffering from an injury to their right ankles, and the time and manner in which they received their injuries is somewhat remarkable. One of the gen. tlemen is Mir. $. J. Mcdonald, a well known cattle man of this valley, and the other is MT. John R. Cromb, of Clifton, cattle buyer for the Arizona Copper com pany, which supplies the Clifton market with fresh meat. MT. Cromb came over from Clifton about a week ago to pur- chase cattle of Mir. Mcdonald, and on the 17th they went about ten miles west on the Yuma road to a pasture where the cattle were grazing. In some man. ner Mir. Cromb's mount became fright ened and afer charging around bit managed to unseat his rider. Mir. Cromb landed on his right foot, which twisted under his weight, and he went down with an ankle both dislocated and broken. He was made as comfortable as possible and sent to town for medical treatment Mr. Mcdonald took charge of Mir. Cromb's horse, riding his own and leading the other animal. He rode into ditch to water them and while they were drinking, his foot, unknown to himself, caught in the empty stirrup of the saddle on Mir. Cromb's horse. His own horse being of a nervous tempera- ner he was attached to the other beast, and both began plunging. His horse jumped ahead, twisting Mir. DcDonald's foot backward, severely straining the ankle. Though he suffered good deal he managed to ride the horse into town and went to Dr. DuffielIs office to see how Mir. Cromb was getting along. The doctor observed his limp and told

 Jas. A. Gale, of Franklin, met with a painful accident last Saturday. While driving his team along the road back of the residence of L. Fraissinet, in Clifton, one of the front wheels of his wagon run over large rock and the jolt caused him 10 be thrown from the seat. His right arm was caught between the wagon bow and brake handle, breaking both bones of the forearm.
 Friday last, on a bridge four miles south of Clifton, a Mexican was run down by . railroad train and received scalp wound. Dr. Burtch brought the unfortunate man around all right and he will soon be as well as ever.

him 10 take his shoe of, which he did and it has been of ever since, with a prospect of not being called upon to do much knocking about for some time. No bones were broken, but the fragments of the ankle were torn loose and he really has more painful limb than his fellow sufferer, who sustained the breaking of the bones. The two gentlemen are mak- ing the best of what, in some respects, was bad cattle deal, and agree with those who come to call upon them that their mutual misfortunes are excruciat- ingly funny, although they are not given to much laughing about it. Two pairs of crutches adorn their rooms, but thus far they, like the wounded limbs, are of no use to them, though their many friends sincerely hope they will be able to run foot race by the time next field day rolls around.
 On Saturday last M. F. Mcbride and Monte Slaughter met at COW camp on the Double Circle range. Between these men had been some previous enmity and a quarrel and fight was soon in pro- gress. MT. Mcbride says Slaughter first tried to kill him with six-shooter which he was wrenching from his hand when a bystander interfered and took the gun. Then Slaughter secured rock which Mac was about to take from him when the bystander again interfered. Then Slaughter pulled long-bladed pocket knife and went to work on Mac with that but during the cutting the bystander failed to interfere. McBride's eyes were bruised, his hands cut in many places, his Jumper" clung to his body in threads, in the left shoulder was severe stab wound and knife slash extended from his right shoulder blade to the hip, only cutting the skin, but cutting that the entire distance.-Bulletin.

Texarkana was treated to a light
snow fall last, not enough to lay on
the grouad, but places west, south
and east of here got a good snow
fall. The train that came in here
from Little Rock this morning,
showed that quite a show fall was
had up the road, in fact We were
told by the train men that a five
inch snow fell above Hope, and on
north to Little Rock, how much
farther they they did not know.
Train Dispatcher Ayers tells US
that heavy snow tell along the
line of the Trans-Coutinental, west
beyond Fort Worth, commencing
yesterday afternoon aud lasting in-
to the night.
We also learn from train men
coming in over the 7. & P. road
from the south, that a good heavy
snow was on the ground from
Alamo, a station some 10 or 20
miles south of here, on to Fort
Worth and points distributed over
Texas.
We suppose snow fell along the
Pee Gee also, aud that Texarkans

escaped from the disagreeable spei
a snow brings with it, for which We
are very thankful.
