Berlin, Nov. 2S-An inspired article in the Berliner Post says: "The rossi- ble, if improbable, modification of ;he punishment of guilty officials in China would not in the least be dictated hy considerations of humanity, but rather by considerations of political eXpedi- ency.
 "Germany never insisted on the pun ishment or death of certain persons. She desires, first of all, thdt the pow CTS should demand the punishment of the guilty. being guided by the wish that all of the eight powers act in con- cert"
 The Wochenblatt. the military or gan. discussing the charges of cruelty on the part of the Germans in China, admits that under certain circum- stances. prisoners may be dangerous, and no prisoners must be taken"
 The war office has received the fol- lowing from Count Won Waldersee, dated Pekin, Nov 2S: "The numerous expeditions carried out by the allies appear to be gradually bringing about the desired pacification of the country. Remote villages frequently request military protection against the Box CTS"

and tustifies the expectations that, when the natural reaction comes. there will be less exposure to extreme de- clines in prices.
 Sanguine observers will find in the situation as it stands plenty of reason for expecting continued speculative and investment activity. We have had a long run of dullness in the market. and revival was therefore to be natur- ally expected. The election has ere ated q situation calculated to foster booms in many directions Judging from common report, the leading branches of industry are each prom ised their own boOms. New cornora- tions are forthcoming at a rate which promises a pronounced revival of the 'IndustriaI boom. If the China trou- bles be satisfactorily settled, we may lok for ''Celestial' boom, with wide reaching consequences. We seem des- tined, indeed, to enter the twentieth century in the midst of bewilder- ment of booms. But, all enthusiasm apart, there does seem much solid promise of an era of prosperity that will give enhanced value to all forms of sound enterprise; and, much as financia! values have already risen, it would be venturesome to predict that they will not advance still further be- fore the end has been reached: reac- tions of more or less severity, Of course, are now in order, and must be- eX- pected.

A DISTRESSING CIRCUMSTANCE
Frank Howard Shot By an Unknown
 Person.

An unfortunate and somewhat pc culiar incident happened about 10 o'clock last night at a school house a short distance this side of the Arizona canal and east of the Cave Creek road several miles northeast of the city. As result of it Frank Howard is now at the Commercial hotel severely wounded with a bullet in his left side uncom- fortably near his heart.
 MT. Howard lives on the Cave Creek road, where he has erected a number of cottages to rent to health seekers, and last evening he took his wife and children to the school house to enjoy school entertainment at which one number was rath5r d tragic scene and in the presentation of which the uss of small rifles was necessary, the actors being provided with blank cartridges.
 The entertainment was a success and at its conclusion MT. Howard and fam fly got into their buggy to drive home. Just as they started . gun was fired and MT. Howard felt something hit his side. He thought it was probably a gun wad, but Hhe pain increased and he soon discovered that he was severely wounded. Instead of driving home he
 
 and going to the Commercial hotel he sSnt for Drs. Woodruff and Battin.
 An examination revealed a wound that had the appearance of being made by a 22-caliber cartridge 2 little above and Eack of the hear1. The wound was probed for thr5a inches, but the bullet was not discovered and in all proba- bility 1t will be lorated today by means of the X-ray. The course of the bull let could not be easily followed by the probe and it is most likely imb5ddsd ir the muscles. At an early hour this morning the patient was resting easily and little fear is entertained but thar he will make a good recovery.
 Thus far the identity of the person firing the gun is not known, but the bullet was most likely from a cartridge that found it's way amnOtg he anupyi that found it's way among the blank cartridges, though there is no apparent reason why a blank cartridge should have been fired at that time and place.
 So far as known there was no dis agreement att the school hQusa ard ie the above theory is incorrlA AiSa bullet must have come from acci- dentally discharged.

WAS ARIZONA'S FRIEND
Death of MT. Andrew Crawford of
 Arizona.

Andrew Crawford, a prominent cap italist of Chicago. dropped dead in his office on the afternoon of the 22d, while discussing business affairs with his partner. J. II. Graham. Heart disease, superinduced by a recent at tack of la grippe, was the cause.
 MT. Crawford was well known in Phoenix and was one of the first east ern capitalists to become interested in this valley He has been the friend of Arizona for many years and was, in fact, one of the first men interested in the promotion of the Arizona canal enterprise.
 MT. Crawford was born in Scotland in 1881, and st the age of twenty he came to the United States. settling in Geneseo, Fl. He was admitted to the bar in 1S5S and shortly after, organ ized the First National bank of Gen. eseo. In 1867 he was elected to the state senate on the republican ticket, serving two years. He was married in 1869. and continued in business until 1872, when he removed to Chicago.
 His interests at that time were largely centered in the Graham and Morton Steamship company, but ne shortly after organized and became vice president of the Chicago and Western Indiana railroad. retiring in 1886. to devote himself to his legal business.
 Mir. Crawford was for many yeas western agent for Drexel, Morgan & Co.,, but resigned to take care of his personal affairs. One year ago Mir. Morgan informed him that they had been unable to fill his place satisfac tori!y, and, at his request, MT. Craw- ford resumed his position once more, at a salary of $5O,OOO He was con- siGered one of the best judges of iu- vestments living in this country.
 MT. Crawford was at one time prasi- dent of the Valley bank of Phoenix, and at the time of his death was pres ident of the Phoenix Trust company. He was large property owner here. and held many Arizona securities. His work for this valley in the early days, when capital was suspicious and slow to invest, was to a great extent the foundation for the prosperity of the present. In his death Arizona loses staunch and influential friend, and many Phoenix people suffer deep personal bereavement.

BROWNING OF THE QUEEN
Rehearsals For That Royal Event in Progress.

Rehearsals for the queens court for the coronation ceremonies will com menee this week, and will be daily eveIts until each and every one is perfect for that event. They vii! be in charge of the ladies' committee and Manager Buckley. The little children who will participate in the juvenile cake walk before the queen. had their first rehearsal yesterday on the opera house stage. There is a very .onsid- erable amount of talent in the way of dancing and cake walks among the lit tie ones of Phoenix, which has been developed already by the first rehear- sal.
 Mrs. Leo Goldman and her commit- tee, the Misses Bury. Christy. Mrs s. M. McCowan and the Misses Hancock and Smith, will devise some plan for cOstuming the children. They will present a beautiful appearance in their little cake walk before the queens court on coronation night.
 The executive committee. at their meeting yesterday, heard reports from all sub-committees through Director General Lewis, and matters of the car nival are moving in the most satisfdc- tory manner.
 It was decided, on motion of MT. Hirschfeld, to offer a cash prize of $50 for the most handsomely decorated booth. Judges will be selected from other cities. and the judging will take place on Monday afternoon, the open ing day. This will be great incen- tive to our merchants to put up beau difuf structures which will adorn Washington street. and make the street fair a greater success than ever.
 The various shows in the midway will have beautifully painted fronts, resembling different structures. Chair man Hirschfe'd, of the midway com mittee. has purchased from the Los Angeles athletic club the painted fronts that Were used in their midway carnival at Fiesta park These fronts represent Swiss chalets, Oriental the ater fronts. Old Vienna, Coney island theaters and similar styles of paint ings. These fronts are from 20 to 30 feet wide, and were painted by Lang, the Burbank theater artist, of Los Angeles. When lighted up. they will make the street look very pretty and will prove a great attraction for the carnival.

THE AMERICAN IDEA.

Washington Nov. 2S.--The state de- partment has cabled Coriger for a ext of the agreement reached by the min isters at Pekin. Meanwhile, he vii withhold his signature. It is safe to say the agreement will not be approved by the powers in it's present shape. The American consuls are making de- niands for indemnity direct to the Chi nese viceroys, and are succeeding well in their efforts. It is believed from advices that the English consuls are doing likewise. and if the movement continues it is entirely possible that England and America will not have to concern themselves in prosecuting in dividual claims through the slow-mov- ing agencies at Pekn.

on tickets, ticket takers, guards, etc , and he has named the following gen. tlemen, who have accepted, as mem- bers of his committee: Ned Creighton, L. B. Larimer. L. H. Landis. George c. Pieronnet. and Dick George. This committee will need a number of paid employees in the form of ticket takers, ticket sellers. guards. etc, the latter mounted. and applications for positions should be made at once to the chair man of the committee.
 Among the firms for free vaudeville show will be Ryiand and Jones, in their great double trapeZe, Spanish rings, and buck and wing dances. They have just closed a season in the Or pheum circuit. and are celebrated aerial artists, who have played all over the country. The vaudeville feature of the free shows will greatly add to the sale of season tickets for the grand stand, as they will be given twice a day, regardless as to whether the queen and her court are present. There will be a frequent change of programme in this respect, new fea- lures being introduced daily. But very few people have had an opportu- nifty to see the wondrous X-ray opera tions-photograp phing through the hu- man body; through books and solid matter, and also looking through the machine and seeing the various ob- jects through the human body. This wonderful machine will be shown dur ing the carnival to Phoenix visitors, free of cost, 2s an attraction, by Dr. Woodruff, at his office. on South Sec ond street. Many visitors will no doubt take advantage of this offer.
 An additional three hundred hangers Of the carnival, depicting Indian, Scenes and cowboy races. etc, with the date strip at the bottom telling the time of the event, are being mailed out by the department to New York, San Francisco, Denver, Omaha, Chi cago, and in fact to all the larger cit ies' principal hotels, with the request to hang them up.
 There has never been a carnival, eX cepting the Los Angeles fiestas, and the New Orleans Mardi Gras, that has been so thoroughly advertised as the Phoenix Indian and cowboy carnival, and the future effect on the city can not fail to be splendid. The name of Phoenix will be pretty firmly planted in the minds of hundreds of thousands of people, regardless of whether they come to the carnival or not, for the hangers will remain up for many days in places throughout the country.

THE YGLEsIAs RENAISSANCE
His Treatment Taking Its Second
 Fall Out of Phoenix Worms.

There is no enemy of the human race more persistent in its attacks than worms. Notwithstanding tfle different varieties of vernlifuge which have been thrown on the market from the ear \liest times, worms of all degrees from
 the int5rminable tapeworm to the microscopic pinwOrm have flourished and spread With the growth of the pop ulation Of the country. More than two years ago Dr. Manuel Yglesias overran this territory from the south to the north on the most comprehen- sive worm hunt ever undertaken. The beauty of his system, he said, was it's completeness. All other treatments for worms were merely discouraging, but his was anihilating. He not only de- stroyed the worms, root and branch, but left the human system in such a shape that it could never be tenable for worms again.
 He remained in Phoenix several months and w mt on to Prescott, where his destructive career was arrested by an apoplecitfc fit. The business of free ing the world of worms was continued by his nephew and a young man of Phoenix named Perez. They moved to Los Angeles and conducted the prac- tice of helminthology. When there were no more worms in Los Angeles for them to conquer, instead of moving on to the next town they began to try to conquer each other. Perez was shot to death and his slayer and partner is now in jail awaiting trial.
 When Dr. Yglesids left Pho5niX it was not supposed that there were more than a dozen and not over fifteen worms at the outside in Phoenix. They were regarded as merely sporadic cases Phoenix breathed easily for a year. Not only were the worms gone, but there was Dr. Yglesias' assurance that no more could be propagated. Then came t'he Quaker doctors and claimed they had found a virgin field. Finding worms was just like getting money from home. Dr. Yglesias, it appeared, instead of having eradicated worms had merely irritated the surface, and aroussd healthy interest and opposi- tion. Until he came che worms had been apathetic.
 Now there has been renaissance of the Yglesias treatment for which Pedro G. de la Lama is responsible. He has just put out a remedy which he claims is the same used by DT Yglesias, and in proof of its genuineness it bears the | signature of the doctor. Some of the | enemies of MT. de la Lama are claim | ing that he writes these signatures himself, since Dr. Ygleslas has been | dead for more than year. These cav ilers do not seem to be aware that there | is such a thing as a power of attorney, the authority of Ap absent person to a present one to si ikA his name. There | is no statute mai it a crime for | dead m2a to g over of attorney. |
