Notes fromNavajo. CHEATING GAME ENDS
 IN BLOODSHED
Navajo Springs, Ariz.

Aug. 21, 1899. Sunday evening at about o'clock trouble arose between c. H. Landruph, a gambler, gang of Indians engaged on the R. R. in Mr. Mink's grading outfit. The Indians were drunk, where they got the whiskey is mystery, and while they were playing cards with Landruph dispute arose in which an Indian accused Landruph of cheating, he at same time accusing the Indian of the same offense. The Indians soon concluded to give Mir Landruph drub- ping, and began pounding him with their fists. Landruph drew his gix-shooter and shot one Indian in the left shoulder inficting dangerous wound,
 Messrs Mink and Conrad, proceeded to the scene of action and succeeded in getting Landruph into the Foreman's car and put him under the bed. One Indian named Mosi Azhi or Little Cat succeeded in getting into the car armed with pick handle and finally found Landruph under the bed. and Landruph soon responded to the blows from the pick handle and came forth. He then took refuge under tic car, but seeing Francisco ArmIio pointing gun at him with evident intent to fire he broke out the opposite side of the car and ran for his life. But as he, ran through the In- dian camp, squaws, boys and all let fly sticks and stones at him, at the same time he was chased by the bucks. Some one fired several shots at him and he soon fell, but no one seems to know ex- actly whether he was shot or knocked down. Several of the Indians gathered around him and hit him on the head with rocks and an Indian, who escaped capture shot him once while he was down. By the time the foreman could interfere the man was drawing h;s last | breath.
 Word was sent to town (Navajo) for Deputy Sheriff Siockwell, who came promptly, but on arriving he found the l Indians so furious, maddened by drink and excited by the fight, that he did not dare make an attempt to make an ar- rest. So word was sent to Wingate for the U. s. Troops. Who fortunately for us arrived promptly. Then Deputy Stockwell arested, Francisco Armijo, Red Turk and Moshi Azhi or Little Cat, whom Ire took to St. Johns. Mir. Con- rad accompanied them as witness. There are other Indians implicated in killing and there will probably be more 1 trouble.
 DICK
 Mir. Stockwell arrived in St Johns, on the 23rd inst, accompanied by the parties above mentioned and also by T. C. Ford of Holbrock. The examining trial was held before Justice Christen- sen and the Indians were held witho, bail to await the action of the Grand Jury in October.
 It ls stated that Landruph's mother lives in Phoenix and his brother in Flag staff, The remains of the man will he turned over to his relatives or inferred at public expense,
 This horrible tragedy is a blazing warning to yonng men to abstain from drinking and gambling, as this is simi. lar to the common end of people who indulge in these douhifnf pleaajfres.

TEACHING DOGS TRICKS.
One That Would Re Amusing if Tried
Upon Yourself.

Although it is Ey no means an I'M
common thing to So" dogs throw SOM
Crsct after somerset in stage perform
anccs, it is Il somewhat remarkable
fact that few people know how such
animals can be taught such difficult
feat.
Ask a friend how he thinks a dog can
lee initiated into tine mysteries of SOM
crsct throwing, and YOU will receive
some very curious suggestions.
As there is more han one way of
cooking a goose, 50 there is more than
one method of teaching a dog to throw
SomcrSctS. But the most practical and
thorough manner is to faStcn cord
around the body of the animal. close to
the fore legs, and two people should
hold the ends of the cord on either side
of the unfortunate dog. y third party,
armed with a stout rope, takes Il posi-
ton Immediately in front of the canine
acrobat and. with n measured and
mastery stroke. floEs the floor at close
quarters to the dogs nose.
At each stroke of the rope the dog
springs backward. ana that movement
is the trainers golden opportunity. AS
the dog springs backward the rope
passing under its body is jcrllcd up
ward, and. although the first few at
tempts may prove futile. the somerset
is acquired in course of time. An intel
Hgcnt dog soon sickcns of this order of
things and throws somcrsets without
the assistance of ropes.
For the sake of your dog in particu-
lar and your patience and future wei
fare in general. we do not commend
you to teaching your dog to turn SOM
ersets. If. however. you think there
is no harm in it, just get few friends
to put you through the exercise and
see how you like il. 1t will prove i'm
mensely amusing for your friends
