The redwood blocks, sent as samples
of the mammoth redwood of California,
passed through Ell Paso over the S. P.
a few days ago. They are being for
warded to the Paris Exposition this
year. The dimensions OF each were
over fifteen feet in diameter.
1t is said that the Santa Fe has given
up its plan to put in the block signal
system between Pueblo and Denver
which was talked of short time ago.
No reason is given for the abandon
mept of the project and in fact the
rumor that 1t has been given up ia un-
confirmed. The Rio Grande> Intends
to put in the system on it's line on the
western slope, but it ia not thought
that it will be done on this division for
the present.
The long, dark era of railway bank
ruptcies (which eliminated in 1898,

Barbed Wire TeIeph on es.

Telephone monopoly is not feared
where barbed wire fencing may be used
as medium for telephone communion
ton. Such use of the fencing has been
made in several places in the west, and
typical illustration is the System
in use in Mason county, Ills. 1t started
with line 1 y miles long, instituted
by an amateur electrician to connect
his fathers farmhouse with the post
Office, and this worked so well that
seven other lines were established. 81
miles in length and operating IS tele
phones. The cost of the wire need not
be considered, of course, and the tele-
phones cost only So each. The use of
the telephones is free to all. Their prac-
tical utility is evident, and in addition
they are means of social entertain
ment much appreciated on the farms.

A WEIRD RUN.
Train Runs Along For Fifty Miles
Minus An Enq1neer.

The overland limited on the North
western railway, near Cedar Rapids,
Ia. ran fifty miles last Saturday night
without an engineer. No one on the
train was conscious of the danger until
the fireman brought the train to a
standstill at Bertram.
Near Mechsnicsville, Engineer E. J.
Fiske, in some unknown manner fell
from the cab and the fireman did not
notice bis absence until the train had
~hirled over fifty miles. Fiske was
picked up unconscious, few hours lat

IOST SIX HUNDRED.
A Bisbee Youth ln Trouble on AC-
 count of Gambling,

Edgar Meyers, who has held posi-. tion in the company's office as steno-
 grapher was arrested Thursday morn ing at his room by Constable Doyle on information furnished by J. c. Prit chard, the Bisbee postmaster. It seems that MT. Meyers has been carry ing money from the post-office to the general office of the Copper Queen and securing New York exchange which was used by MT. Pritchard in remitting post office funds.
 Last Monday evening Postmaster Pritchard entrusted six hundred and ten dollars to the young man who was to obtain New York draft for him which was to be remitted to the post office depar tment.
 The young man was unable to obtain the exchange that evening and during the night made the rounds of the gam bling houses with the result that when daylight came his money was all gone. The next day he was entrusted with another amount and returned the ex- ! change to the postmaster as he had al ways done before. He was asked about the item of S6l0 and again made some excuse which satisfied MT. Pritchard.
 Thursday morning the postmater be- came alarmed and called at the general office of the Copper Queen company when the defalcation was discovered. Constable Doyle was told of the circum- stances and Thurday morning placed the unfortunate individual under ar rest. His relatives were communicated with and his father arrive on to-day's train.
 The REVIEW believes that the sad affair was piece of boyish thought lessness influenced by too much intox- icants. That he had this money on his person Monday evening and risked a small amount at first and lost. This was followed by larger amount in the hope of regaining his losses and before he realized his position the money was gone. ....
 If there had been any criminal intent on his part from the first he had ample time to make his escape. Instead he made clean breast of the whole affair. We hope this episode will prove les son to the young man that will last

ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.
Another Victim of the Gun Car-
 rying Habit.
A Man Drops a PistO! in the Turf Sa- loon and Two Men are Wounded.
 The Man Makes His Exit.

Another forcible argument against the gun carrying habit, which is be- coming prevailant to an alarming ex- tent, was very forcibly impressed or the minds of Tom Harris and John Bluett in the Turf Saloon last Wednes- day morning.
 There was the usual crowd in the place and around the games th@ deul- CTS were doing a rushing busine ss. At the crap table a man was gambling and it was his "throw'' with the dide. He dropped piece of money on the floor and as he stopped to pick it up a six. shooter fell from his pocket, striking the floor and was discharged.
 The mu2zle pointed towards the door and the ball just grazed the lSn ee cap John Bluett who was standing behind the man three feet away. Tho bullet ranged upward and struck Mr. Harris in the upper part of the thigh and just missed the large vessels of that part of the body. The bullet lodged somewhere posterily and was pot ex- tracted. The exact location is not known
 The man who dropped the gup was a young fellow. we'll built, and haH been in the saloon earlier in the dvening. At that time he was patron of the crap table and had handed young fel- low three dollars and told him to go get his gun which he had pawned Shortly afterwards he followed the boy outside and was gone sometime. When he returned he again resumed bis place at the crap game and the pistol fell to the fOOr as dnScrihad ahOve
 The pistol was 45-calibre with a black bone handle. When the pistol was discharged everyone in the house excitement the man walked out. The dealer at the table as soon as he saw what had happened reached under the table and secured the pistol placing it in the drawer. Several of the inmates of the place saw the accident but no one knew the mans name that dropped the gun.
 Mr. Harris, the wounded man was taken to pr. Willard's office and his wound dressed and he was sent to the hospital. MT. Harris had just stepped into the place and was watching the game when the accident occurred. He stated that the shooting was accidental that he noticed the man before tn gun fell from. his pocket but that he did not know his name.
 Just how serious the wound is re- mains to be seen. The shooting was accidental and the person who dropped the gun should be man enough to as sume the responsibility and make some to the injured man. There is m occasiOn in RiShee for the hahjt- ual carrying of fire arms. In fact there is less occasion here than in other min ing camps of Arizona having less and the man who carries one about with him every day is either looking for trouble or passing as would be "bad man."

Christmas Exercises.

Christmas day was observed by all the religious organizations in Bisbee with appropriate exercises and by dis tribution of presents to the little ones. The exercises Christmas eve at Library Hall and the Methodist church were attended by all who could gain admis- sion and both places were crowded to the doors. Christmas trees were in evidence at both places loaded with presents for the old and young alike. Probably the most valuable present handed out at the Methodist church Christmas eve was a check from the New York office of the Copper Queen company drawn in favor of Rev. D. Roberts for $l050 This was donation from one of the directors in aid of the new Methodist church building in Bis bee that has just been completed. This present was doubly appreciated from the fact that it had come unsolicited.
