BONnSMEN WIN \ POINT

The suit brought by the supervisors
of Pinal county against the bondsmen
of the defaulting county treasurer
was tried At Florence yesterday
The supervisors brought suit to re
cover $1,000 of the first and second
term bondsmen of Treasurer Brady.
The bondsmen who were the sureties
of Brady upon his second term of Office
claim that the accounts of the treas
urer was short before bond was filed,
hence they were not responsible. OF
these bondSmen several live in Tucson.
The case was tried before Il jury. and
when evfdenc was produced by Ae-
countant Ben Henly. showing that the
contention of the second-term bonds
men was correct. the district judge re-
quested the jury to return verdict
allowing the county judgment in the
sum of $1,000.
Some time ago the boudsmen offered
to settle the matter by paying to the
county $1,000 upon their bond of 500
600. The county supervisors refused
to accept the offer. and the bondsmen
are now glad that they took the course
they did.-Tucson Citizen.

judging from the quantity and quality
of advertising matter that is being
sent broadcast throughout the land il

the kind ever held in the southwest
Governor Roosevelt, the gallant lead
er of the Rough Riders. has announc-
ed his intention of being present dur
ing the entire four days of the reunion
and he will actively participate in the
festivities. The second day of the re-

expected are General Leonard Wood.
Colonel Brodie,. General Frederick
Funston. General Joe Wheeler and the
governors of the adjacent states.
The railways are making very low

full country that hundreds will take
advantage of. The Rough Riders re

Those who are unacquainted with
the marvellous progress of Oklahoma
viii be surprised to learn that Okla
HON City is able to raise $4,000 to
meet the expenses of this unique meet

FATAL ACCIDENT
 AT TUSCALOOSA Capt. Wm. H. WiIds and His Me- gro Driver Killed. STRUCK BY PART OF TRAIN He Had Just Delivered Load of Cotton Seed to the Oil Mill at That
 Place and Was Re-
 turning Home

Tuscaloosa, September 1s.-(Special.)- Capt. William H. Wilds, well known and popular citizen of Tuscaloosa and his ne- gro driver, William Russell, were the vic- tims of 6 terrible accident which happened near the Tuscaloosa oil mills this morning at 7:30 o'clock.
 The southbound local Alabama Great Southern train was making up for its daily trip, and in going down the track by the oil mill the train was cut in two and the caboose and two cars were following the rest of the train. Captain Wilds had just delivered a load of seed cotton to the mill and was leaving for home. The team he was driving had just passed through the gates and out of the yards of the mill, and were crossing the tracks when the front part of the train passed. The ca boose and the two cars were obscured by the presence of a number of cars on the siding next to the mill. The team was driven onto the main track and the latter part of the train, moving rather slowly struck the wagon bed, knocking it off of the track on to a nearby switch.
 Captain Wilds and the driver saw the approaching cars they got on the track and the negro jumped out of the wagon and landed just in front of the cars. Cap tain Wilds jumped the opposite side, and while his body was in no way mangled, he was rolled along the track and almost instantly killed. The negro was badly crushed and instantly killed.
 Captain Wilds was one of the most prom inent citizens in the county and was for many years tax collector of Tuscaloosa County, and was postmaster at this place during Cleveland's last administration. He has always been an influential Democrat and a consistent member of the Baptist church. A strange fatality has seemed to follow him the last few years. Two years ago his l3-year-old son was killed by
