Hold Up on the N. M. 4 A,


 Benson was held up by five masked men at Fairbank, Thursday evening, at 6:30 o'clock. Owing to the brave fight made by Capt. J. D. Milton. the Wells Fargo messenger, the rob- bers were pressed for time and ob- tained but a few dollars. During the shooting which followed the robbers attempt to enter the express car Miltol was shot, and his left arm badly shattered.
 The train arrived at Fairbank on time aud the engineer and fireman did not notice that anything unusual had occurred until they were confront ed by two of the robbers who com manded them to throw up their hands and get off the engine. They complied with the request and were lined up on the platform with number of the crew.
 Three of the robbers hurried to the express car where they found Capt. Milton preparing to throw off the baggage for Fairbank. When told to throw up his hands Milton grabbed Wells-Fargo shotgun and fired at the robbers One of them dropped crying II am shot, lookout for that man." The other two Re turned the fire. Milton fell with his left arm badly shattered between the shoulder and elbow.
 One of the men, apparently the leader of vhe band, told his companion to enter the car The man refused. The other forced him to enter at the point of his pistol, and immediately followed him. Milton who was lying partly concealed by some large boxes, was so weak from the loss of blood that he could not move. He stated afterwards that the men were only in the car few moments.
 Shots fired down [ he track attracted their attention and fearing the rest of the robbers had been attacked they JumpCu OuU Oi buC Coi duu WCtC etuC.
 As soon as the robbers had disap- peared the train backed to Benson where an engine and a caboose were in waiting to take Milton to Tucson.
 At daybreak Friday morning posses from Nogales and Tombstone started out from Faireank on the robbers trail. At about 9:30 the same morn ing the man Capt. Milton had shot was captured near Tombstone. He proved to be Jack Dunlap, we'll known desperado. He was badly wounded and it is expected he will die.
 Up to today no further cap- lures have been made, but deter mined men are out after the robbers and 1t is hoped the gang will be run down.
 A telegram received from Tucson this morning states that Capt. Milton Is getting along nicely. He has the best of attention at the hospital

to thrifty pigs. In practice we should
rate it higher, because of the ease Of
digestion, and the fact that we think
we should have to feed more grain
with it than without it and thus make
a more rapid gain. Some also advo-
cate it as being fed back to the cows
as a protein food, or rather given them
as a drink in about the proportion to
the amount each one yields, while
others give certain amount every day,
stirring the grain into it to make q
sort of cruel. We have no doubt it
could be made useful in that way when
one had not calves, pigs or chickens
to use it up. When one, does use it in
that way regularly there should be
ensilage, roots or oil meal to correct
the constipating effects of a milk diet.

The Original Seven Wonders.

None Of the original seven wonders
of the world remains, except the great
pyramid of Egypt. The tomb of Maui
solus, king of Caria, built about $50
B. c.. was destroyed before 400 A. D.
The third wonder, the temple of Diana
at Ephesus, was built $50 B. G. and
was destroyed 1856 B. G. The fourth
wonder, the walls and terraces of
Babylon, were erected about $40 B.
G. They decayed gradually after Baby
Ion had ceased to be the capital Of the
Assyrian empire. The Colossus Of
Rhodes, erected in 2SS B. c., stood "a
years, was destroyed by an earthquake
and lay in ruins for nearly 900 years,
until Jew bought it and took it on
900 camels to Alexandria. The statue
of Zeus at Olympus was made 437-
433 B. c., was removed to CONSTANT

the constitutionality of the law, pros

Youtsey Worse Again.
Youtsey suffered from another out
break during the night after the judge
sent the jury to it's quarters. He
jumped from his cot grabbed chair,
and smashed it against the wall A
guard overpowered him and placed him
back upon the cot, where he ley gasp
ing and exhausted. Colonel Nelson
was not in court when the jury re-
ceived it's brief final advice from Judge
Cantrill. But Youtse was there-at
least the scmblance of him was pres
ent. The door of the room which has
lodged him was thrown open, and the
light streaming out showed a face
framed in white coverlets. The eyes
were closed. The wife sat by one side
of the cot, a white uniformed nurse
by the other. Mr. Youtsey, the gray
bearded father. sat inside the rail a
few yards from the doorway. The
wife and father listened intently while
the judge told the jury how it's duties
should be performed. and then they
scanned the faces of the jurymen.
Jurymen Impassive.
Impassive, sphinx-like faces they
were, for these twelve men are bowed
and sobered beyond the ordinary by the
weight of their responsibility. Jury
men have aften tried men charged
with murder, but never has one tried
the earthly shell Of man under weight
of judicial Instructions which forbid
that they should take cognizance of
the physical condition of the accused.
Such, say the attorneys, is the effect
of the ruling which ordered the trial
continued, though no mention of Yout-
sey's physical state was made In
Judge Cantrills formal instructions.
Nor did the jurymen look toward the
lighted door. The verdict was unani-
nous that Youtsey was guilty. Then
the degree of punishment was fixed,
but on this the jury was somewhat d.
vided, but finally agreed on the life
sentence.
Motion for Arrest of Judgment
The defense filed their motion for
an arrest of judgment and Judge
CantTll set the motion for hearing the
second day of the February term and
therefore Youtsey will not be SEN
fenced till next year, if then. On
the judges own motion he entered an
order to have Youtsey moved to the
Frankfort jail for safe-keeplng and
he will be taken there.
