As he fell he pulled his revolver and fired two shots. both into the body of his assailant Laughery also shot and put a heavy bullet through the side of the animal, and pulled Aller out of the way of the death struggle of the cat.

Old hunters state that many years ago the jaguar was occasionally in Mexico and Arizona, but this is the firat time one has been found so far north. The skin is of a very dark color, lighter around the belly and covered on the sides with darker circles.

PICNIC FOR HUNDREDS
Was Given By the Copper Queen Band
 of Bisbee.

The picnic given by the Copper Queen band at Lewis Springs was a great sue cess, says the Cochise Review. A train consisting of six cars left this station at o'clock. in the morning. The train probably took away over 25O excursion ists.
 Along the route at the different side stations d number of pleasure seekers boarded the train. Everyone carried q well filled basket, and bent on having q good time.
 During the ride the crowd indulged in the usual good natured badinage and all were in the best of spirits. At the picnic grounds the jolly party left the train and proceeded to dispose itself each according to his own inclination: some took to the shelter of the grove of cottonWoods. some strolied by the fla nous spring that bubbled from the earth. The San Pedro river half mile away. claimed the attention of a num- Der of youths. who appeared to be in the water all the time, except when they came in to satisfy their extensive appetites.
 The greatest care was taken by the numerous owners of lakes to see that all were provided, and the most lavish hospitality was shown to those who were not possessed of blankets.
 4 platform was provided for dancing and a number of guests danced mer- rily for some hours. notwithstanding the heat, the Copper Queen band kind ly furnishing the dancers with their fine music.
