Misguided Patriotism.

A press report from Guaymas says: On Washington's Birthday shooting affray occurred at Pillar del Tierra, in which three Americans and five Mexi- cans were killed. It had been arranged to raise the flags of the two republics together. The Mexicans had charge of the affair and raised the American flag above the Mexican flag to the com plete satisfaction of the Americans. Then the Mexicans decided to lower and rehoist the flags with the Mexican flag on top. Superintendent DanfOrth told the Mexicans they would have to shoot him before they could down the American flag. The Mexicans were about to mob Danforth when Charles Hogsett. who was with the Rough Riders in Cuba, interposed with six shooter in each hand. Firing from both sides ensued. Hogsett was in- stantly killed. John Evans and Dick Rea. two other Americans, were mor- tally wounded. The Americans held the flagpole and both flags tioated throughout the day.

Resignation of Prof. Dimmick.

Prof. Dimmick, principal of the public schools of Flagstaff, rendered his resignation to the board of school trustees to-day and it was promptly accepted.
 The cause that led up to the resig- nation was the undue punishment of Stacy Hibben, pupil in the principa room, yesterday morning.
 Complaint was made to the board, and they met yesterday afternoon. After investigating the case the board gave Mr. Dimmick the choice of re- signing or being discharged, and al- lowed him until 10 o'clock this morn- ing To make answer.
 The board met this morning to re- ceive Mr. Dimmick's reply. which was to the effect that if all rules of the board supervising the punishment of pupils were rescinded he would con linne teaching until the end of the icrni: if not, he would resign. and the latter proposition was unanimously accepted.

Michael Rusnock, of Marshwoos, a
laborer employed by the Meosic Msnn-
tain Coal company, Aed yesterday
morning at the Lackawanna hospital
from scalas inflicted the night Of Fri
day, Aug. II. by Mrs. John Rusnock.
his sistsr-n-law and boarding mis-
tress.
The two had a disagreement over
Rusnock's board bill and It was ter
nlnted by Mrs. Rusnock selling a Iai-
dron OF boiling water and emptyiu.
the contents over her brother-in-law.
She has not been arrested as yet.
RuAook was not In the country very
long. He secured work in the Marsh
wood mine and proved himself an in
dustrious. hard working mea. He
lived with his rother, John Runsck,
and his wife.
Friday Aug. II, was pay day at the
mine, and when Ru@nock went home
for the night his sister-h-law de-
manded money from him to pay FOR
the months board and lodging.
The other dodgers in the house tell
varying stories of what occurred at
this junoture.
Some say that Rusnock objected to
paying the bill on the ground chat it
was eXorbhant, and that Mrs. Rus
mock then flew into a passion and as
| saulted him with the kettle OF boiling
water.
Others claim that Rusnock on enter
ing the house told his sister In law
that he intended moving from tho
place at once and seeking osler lodg-
ings. He then began TO gather his
| property together, and, when present
ed with a bill, refused 10 pay n.
Another and the most generally df-
! fused story is that the entire affair
was the outcome OF drunken brawI.
| As a result OF it being pay day the
| grog shops were we'll patronized by all
| the miners, and the boarding house
| was full of drunken men. Mrs. Rus
mock approached her brether-in-law W
| while he was in this condition and
again brought UP the subject OF the
| bill, which had been discussed earlier
in the day.
| A warm spgumert ensued between
the two and. on Rusnock making a
threatening gesture, the woman seized
the kettle OF boiling water and thraw
the contents over him.
He fell to the ground with a deas
groan, and lay there rtering sounds
of awful agony. This partially So
bered the onlookers, who placed him
upon his bed and tried theE best to
sooth his pain.
The next day he was removed TO ne
Iackawanna hospital, where it was
seen from the very outset that his ir-
juries We're of a very grave nature
and that there was little chance OF
his recovery.
Rusnoek was 35 years Of age and
unmarried.
