There is no better medicine for the babies than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Its pleasant taste and prompt and effectual cures make it a favorite with mothers and small chill dren. It quickly cures their coughs and colds, preventing pneumonia or other serious consequences. It also cures croup and has been used in tens of thousands of cases without single failure so far as we have been able to learn. It not only cures croup, but when given as soon as the croupy cough appears, will prevent the attack. In cases of whooping cough it liquefies the tough mucus, making it easier to expectorate, and lessens the severity and frequency of the paroxysms of coughing, thus depriving that desesse of all dangerous consequences. For sale by Brocbway's Pharmacy.

A Citizen correspondent gives the following account of the stage acci- dent last Saturday: Edward Mont gomery stage driver for c. c. Hockett between Mesa and Riverside, came very near having serious accident upon his return trip from Riverside Saturday. He stopped at the Donnelly water station to deliver a package and leaving the team to deliver it they took notion to proceed on the journey without his guidance and started down the hill towards Florence. Ed saw them just in time and running caught the stage and succeed in gain ing the seat. The team consisting of four spirited horses, by this time were at full run and had left the road, and before they were stopped Mir. Montgomery had received several severe scratches from limbs of trees and discovered later that he had in jured his hip quite seriously. Nc damage was done to team or coach and he drove into Florence where he was relieved by another driver who com pleted the trip to Mesa. Upon arriv- ing at Florence it was discovered that two passengers were missing and it is supposed they had alighted as soon as the team was stopped, and having his hands full looking after the horses, the driver had not missed them. It was narrow escape for all concerned It will be some days before Mir. Mont gomery will be able to make his next 1 trip.

The Citizen says the Pride of the West mine at Washington Camp has started up and an increased force has been put on. The mine was shut down some time ago for the reason that the concentrator did not work and tests of machinery had to be made The company has now put in Cornish roller machine and those who have seen it work say it is just the thing This will mean great deal to that camp as more than 200 men will be put to work.

Over hundred men were laid off at the Ray mine this week and several big teams hauling freight from Casa Grande to Ray were likewise dis charged. This is very much to be regretted, as the property is known to to be valuable. It is said the English owners are finding difficulty in raising funds for prosecuting the work on ac- count of the war in South Africa. It is believed the close down is only temporary.

Premature Blast.

The following are the particulars of the accident in the Ray mine mention of which was made in last weeks TRIBUNE:
 E. w. Spear, the proprietor of the freight stage line between Phoenix and the Ray mine, brought news of a disaster at the Ray mine, in which Jack Gallagher was seriously injured and James Reed was fatally wounded. The accident was caused by an unex- pected explosion of blast on Wednes- day. When Mir. Spear left the mine Thursday Reed was still living, but very low.
 The two men were working in the second level of shaft No. l, blasting in the breast and ou the bottom of the drift. They had placed charges in two block holes and lighted the fuses, but the charges refused to explode, and an hour later Gallagher and Reed went to dinner. Returning in two or three hours after the block holes had been charged, the men commenced the blasting in the breast, standing over the two block holes, which then were supposed to be harmless. Suddenly under their feet there was tremen- dous explosion, causing vibrations along the drift, and the two Uiners were prostrated. The left eye and side of Reeds face were blown away and the man was otherwise badly in- jured. Hundreds of fragments of rock buried themselves in the body of Gal lagher, who was rendered unconscious by flying rock which struck him on the head. He later regained conscious ness and doctor said that his in- juries were not necessarily fatal, but he had no hope of the recovery of Reed. The accident was another of those unexpected mine explosions and the cause will always remain mystery.
 Although the miners were working over the block holes, they did not jar the charges, knowing of their existence and thinking to touch them off with new fuses later in the afternoon. It would be difficult to explain how the explosion occurred because of the fuses, for they were not time fuses, and having been lighted several hours before should have ignited the powder charges long b fore the time of the actual explosion. Both of the miners are we'll known in the territory, hav- ing been here for several years.

The Florence Social and Dramatic Club.


 Reported by Jos. Mulhatton, Society Editor
 Mrs. A. F Barker and 6 number of the leading ladies of Florence, incl ud- ing Mrs. Truman, Mrs. Brockway Mrs. Summers, Mrs. Wilson, Miss Mollie Long, Mrs. Hartcr, Mrs. Whit low, Mrs. Drais, Mrs. Ksating, Mir S.. Corbett, and & number of others, have come to the conclusion that life is worth living, not merely existing, and with that idea have decided to organize Social and Dramatic Club, having amusements to suit the various ideas and inciinations of it's memb bers, recitations, cards, music, love making, dancing and private theatricals to be its chief attractions. A committee is at work as the TRIBUNE goes to press, arranging the matter.
 In the way of private theatricals the attractions will be comedy and tragedy. For instance, Judge Benson will appear on the opening night, making his debut as Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark" while on the second night Dan Stevens and w. Y. Price will appear in tie Comedy of Errors" as the two Dromios. Col. Keating and A. F. Barker will be assigned important parts on other nights. Simon Augulo and A. NJ. Harrison will give recitations in costume and will also dance the ballet. The ladies will represent the seasons, spring, autumn, etc, also mythologi- cal characters. It promises to be most unique and calculated to drive away dull care and entirely annihilate the ennui of life.

George F. Cook has made fair and honest supervisor. His vote to award the printing contracts to the lowest bidder, thereby making a saving for the county, was in line with his con- duct during the entire time he has been in office. As he was in a minority however, the county will be compelled to pay 20 per cent more for publishing proceedings than if Mir. Cooks advice had been followed, and a dollar a thousand more for printing letter heads than it has ever paid.

According to a Painsville despatch
to tho Leader this morning, the solid
support of the Lake county delegation
TO the Republican Congressional con-
yentlon will be given to Mr.. James II.
Garfield of that county. "While there
is natural sentiment" says the des.
patch, against depriving Judge Phil
lips Of a second term, IL Is unlikely that
this feeling would prove strong enough
to secure for him the Lake county del
egation.' The Democrat has already
predicted that Phillips himself will
come to the same dolorous conclusion
before the contest for the nomination
closes.

THE ECONOMIC LEAGUE.

Upon many occasions within The last
few years andge Grant has given the
people of Akron the benefit of his con.
cluslons upon great public issues, and
he has come to be regarded as one of
the foremost leaders of economic
thought and research in Ohio, but the
citizens who heard his address to the
Economic League last evening, upon
the subject OF '"rhc Present Crisis"
unhestitatingly unite In pronouncing 1t
the masterpiece of all that he has said
or written upon kindred subjects here
toforc.
The words of appreciation uttered by
the members OF the League at the con
cluslon of the address, and their ear
nest wish that the address should be
published In pamphlet form and given
the benefit Of national circulation,
showed how well the sentiments OK.
pressed by the speaker were received.
Judge Grant has kindly consented
to furnish the Democrat with report
Of the address, which we shall publish
IN Saturdays edition. The synopsis
published in today's report of tho
League meeting affords but limited
conception Of the trend of thought en-
bodied In the address, but 1t shows the
enthusiastic nature OF its reception.

advisability Of allowing his bill pro-

municipal government of the city Of
Canton to die peaceful death in the

the bill.
Mr.. Snyder's change OF mind with
respect 70 the proposed law is occasion
ed by the many protests which he is
receiving from prominent constituents.
Among others John G. Duebcr has
