FOOL TACTICS AT kip DRIFT

who had to advance with no protection.

faces by a sudden rattle OF musketry
which seemed to come from the entire
hill. A few rushes forward were Dukily

While We meet to express our sym

enter into the SORROW and the grief with
those nearest and dearest to the de-
parted,yet through the sadness and the
loss that pervaues Us, with a knowl-

we look with a faith and assurance
beyond the clouds now overwhelming
us into the great futurlty of Goo ever
lasting love, and we believe they have
entered into 1.-The rest that remaineth
tor the People of God" This assur-
ance leads us to say Father! tiny Will

of a stamp and character which any
community might justly feel proud of
and a loss to such community when
called away. They had the materials
which go to make the good citizen, the
substantial business man, the mOdel
in domestic and social lie, and the con-
scientious Christian; and when such
are taken from our midst, just as lay

DIED FROM SKUNK BITE,
Terrible End Of an Arizona Cowboy
in El Paso.
BITTEN THREE MONTHS AGO.

one of the most horrible deaths Is
that which results from hydrophobia.
and the poison OF a rattlesnake IL con-
sldered extremely mild when compared
with that which drops from the flngs
Of a rabid canine. says the III Paso
Herald.
When the blood Of a human being
becomes ~inoculated with hydrophobia
virus the eject is horrible to behold.
CONFUSION follows convulsion In rapid
succession and the stricken person
struggles with the superhuman
strength Of a maniac until death ends
his sufferings and brings the relief
which Is beyond the power Of the best
medical skill to AFFORD.
A death directly due to bydrophobla
occurred in this city Sunday morning.
The victim was ~inocculated with the
virus OF a mad skunk three months
ago on the sandy deserts Of Arizona,
fve miles from Wilcox, and experience
ed no serious results until three days
ago. when he a stricken down with
commissions, which continued at irreg-
ular intervals until the end came.
The unfortunate mans name was 81
las Carson. He was a cowboy on one
Of the ranches near Wilcox.
ms night during the latter part Of
August Carson wrapped In his blan-
ket, was sleeping in the open On the
range. About midnight he was awak-
| ened by the movement of some animal
that had sought refuge In his bedding.
He sprang up and shook open the blan-
| bot 20 IfganNrr fhRf "A nnar1fnn aLaapE
with froth dripping from Its mouth
was within a few inches Of his face. lie
slapped at the animal with his hand
and the vicious beast buried its fangs
In one OF his fingers. The cowboy
shook him OF but before he could draw
his ix-shooter the skunk had fled.
Carson did not consider the wound
| serious and. as Il soon healed up. he
thought nothing more about II. until
tbree days ago when he was stricken
down with n CONFUSION very similar ia
an epileptic nj. He at ono consulted
physicians OF Wilcox and after relating
to them the story OF his u with
the skunk they decided that he had
been bitten by an animal afflicted with
the rabies. and that his symptoms

bia. They decided that the patient had
best come to El Paso and secure the
services OF physicians OF this city.
