Sheriff Truman was called to Marico- pa Thursday by atelegram announcing that white man had been shot by an Indian. Passengers who came in on Thursdays stage report that the man in question was tramp going to Ph@- nix, who had reached g point about six miles north of MaricOpa when he was attacked by two Indians, beaten over the head and shot through the hand. The man found his way back to Maricopa Thursday morning in a dilapidated condition, though not seriously injured. There has been a bad gang of Indians infesting that part of Sacaton reservation for some time, and the authorities seem de- termined to break it up and bring the malefactors to justice. In this they will be aided to the fullest extent by Agent
 Hadley and his police.

NEW WAY OF EARNING FEES.
Gotham Doctors Forbidding Re- newal of Prescriptions With
 cut Orders.

Only a short time ago several physi- ,ians prominent in a special branch of practice met to decide in what way they could best bring to the attention of colleague question that interest ed them greatly. This physician, says the New York Sun, was almost the best known in his speciality in the city, but his charges, in view of his reputation, have always been so moderate that his associates felt the need of protesting. But it was decided not to protest, and the physician received only an intima- ton that his fees sometimes astouishcd his brothers in the profession. One physician in town has recently intro duced a practice which is said to be increasing in popularity with the pro- fession, and 1t is likely that the cus- tom will be adopted widely by those physicians who have authority enough lo4tteinpt an5 thing so naTel. This doc tor has his patienis take the prescrip- ton te a druggist who is forbidden by the terms of his agreement to renew The prescription except upon written order from the doctor. No patient can get his bottle or box redlled unless he brings the new prescription, which ueans, of course, another visit to the doctor, The bottles are of size that
 asts for week. In some cases the same medicines are renewed week after week, but with the order that comes only from the visit to the doctor. They are changed in few cases. The profes- sion has not protested against this new fashion as yet, and it is not likely that it will. But it is only the influential and authoritative among the physicians that are able to attempt it.

Evangelist Moody is meeting with much encouragement at the Capital City. At the special afternoon service, the Herald says: At the Presbyterian church there were about 300 young men. After singing several hymns MT. Moody called for testimony and to the way in which God blessed those pres ent, to which there was quite a large response. Especially notable were the words of Col. J. Roe Young. He spoke feelingly of his failure in the years that had passed, but now desired to be henceforth an avowed servant of Jesus Christ. He called special attention to the large number of Indian boys and young men who came into the church while he was speaking and said that twice he had been Indian agent, but that not being Christian he had not yielded the influence which should have surrounded those warped by na- ture. He declared that he wished to make public confession end to publicly pledge himself to a nohler life-[ Pho enix Herald.

A Sad Death.

Dr. Broadway was called to Mineral Creek Tuesday to see Mrs. P. A. Schilaing, who had been quite i'll, and while attending to her case directed her husband to administer spoonful of whisky Mir. Schilling went to a shelf where there were number of bottles, and by mistake got hold of the wrong bottle and gave her carbolic acid instead. This was two o'clock Wednesday morning. Every effort was made to neutralize the effects of the poison, but without avail, and Mrs. Schilling died at o'clock in the even- ing of the same day. Deceased was B years old and was kind and loving wife to whom her husband was devoted, This makes it all the harder for him to bear. In this untimely death Mr. Schilling has the sympathy of the entire community, and everything the people can do to assuage the remorse for the sad and unfortunate accident has been done. The body of Mrs. schilling was brought to Florence, eDsalmed and shipped to her old home in Clarence, Mo, where the funeral services will be conducted.

c. D. Reppy made flying trip to Tucson this week. He was pleased to note the evidence of improvement in the ancient and honorable pueblo, many beautiful residences and impos- ing business structures having been greeted since his last visit. The most substantial building noted was the new Touring mill of the Eagle Milling Company which has just been com pleted. It is of brick, four stories and basement, with immense warehouses adjoining. The machinery is now being put in position by a force of workmen from Indianapolis, and comprises the latest improvements in scientific milling. The mill will have a capacity of 150 barrels day, and the proprietors promise product superior to even their celebrated "Gold Dust, i" and not excelled by the finest brands of four manufactured anywhere. The people of Pinal county should take a local pride in this mill, as here is the market for the high-grade white Australian wheat which has made this valley famous. The Eagle Milling company bought $60,OO0 worth of our wheat last year, and it is as little as our people can do to purchase the manufactured product. The mill will be started up by the 1st of March.

CANINE MAID OF HONOR.
A Baltimore Wedding Recently In- troduced Some Startling
 Novelties.

Here is story of Baltimore mar riage which simply overturned popu- lar traditions and set all Baltimore in conversation. The benedict, says the Chicago Chronicle, was Francis B. Stevens, Jr., of Hoboken, N. J., while Miss Adele Horwitz played the Beatrice of the startling occasion
 There was neither maid of honor nor bridesmaid, but the bride entered the drawing-room accompanied by her pet fox terrier, Jock, around whose collar were entwined orange blossoms, from which streamers of white ribbon flowed. During the ceremony Jock, after view ing the guests, sat upon the floor at the feet of his mistress. Mir. and Mrs. Benjamin F. Horwitz gave their daugh- ter diamond clasps for her slippers. and her gown was SO arranged that these confections of white liberty vel vet md their ieweled fasten'ngs could be seen by the guests.
 After the wedding the friends Of Mrs. Stevens paid her back in her own coin for the many practical jokes which she had been won't to play upon the so- ciety people of her native city. The carriage which conveyed the bridal party to the station was decorated with various wedding articles and ere ated a sensation as it drove through the streets Of Baltimore. Long streamers of white ribbon were tied at every pos sible point of vantage and placards an- nouncing that the occupants were bride and bridegroom were attached 10 the sides and rear.

A young lady of Casa Grande, who is probably being devoured by the green-eyed monster, has written the following to the TRIBUNE for publica- tion: "The next time the Kenilworth teacher goes over to Phoenix, with Institute as an excuse, and amuses himself by cutting the session to hunt 'Wolfe's,' it is to be hoped that he will be more generous, and bring his game home"

The initial number of Sage Green and Silver, the new paper published

by the students of the University at Tucson, came to hand this week. The pretty title, significant of the desert bush and $he silver in our mountains, is not the only creditable feature about the paper. Typograph- ieally and editorially the work is well done, and it starts out well in every respect, even to a good adver- tising. On the editorial staff is found the name of former Florence favorite

Perhaps the greatest mechanical feat of the century has been the raising of some of the Spanish warships which were apparently shot to pieces at San tiago. It seemed utterly impossible to float them because of the terrible dam age inflicted by our guns, but the task has been accomplished. Diseases of the blood, sbomech and liver fre- ouentIy wreck the health 50 that there appears to be no chance of recovery. But when Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is taken, the disordered system isspeedi- lv restored no it's old-time vigor and tone.

Book. in Japan and Italy.

The Japanese now publish three times as many books as the Italians, whose literary powers seem to have faded almost entirely away. Out of 25.oOO volumes published last year in the land of flowers no less than 500 were law books and 1900 treated of religion; which shows that the romantic little nation has not taken kindly to any written form of romance.
