A special from Phoenix, Ariz.,
says; While defending herself
against drunken Indians, Mrs j
Irving accidentally sent a bullet
through the brain of her baby,
which was playing on the floor.
The tragedy happened last night
in "A settlers cabin in Mar,eopa

south of this place. Maricopa
Jim. " an Indian, accompanied by
several young bucks, all of them
drunk, attempted to assault Mrs
Irving. After the shooting she
escaped from the cabin, and under
shadow of darkness ran to the
cabin of another trader, who gave
the alarm. An armed force of
settlers returned to the scene of the
tragedy, but the Indians had dis,
appeared. II is presumed they
fled to the mountains \ posse is
in pursuit.
There are about 1000 Indians on
this reservation. Most of them
say they are not IN sympathy with
"Maricopa Jim" and they promise
to assist the whites in bringing the
guilty Indians TO Justice.

washington, March 2. - The house
,amoyed all possibility Of an extra

svered present and was not paired.
The bill now goes to the president.
The house was brought to a vote by
a special order prepared by the COM
mittee on rules which permitted an
hours debate on a side. The Demo-
Gratis attempted to flibuster but they
were overwhelmed. The debate was
nat especially noteworthy. The
Philippine and Cuban amendments
were defended by the Republicans and
assailed by the Democrats. The only
exciting incident occurred at the close
of the debate when Mr.. Hull OF Iowa,
whose name had been connected with
a lumber development company in the
philippines. frankly acknowledged.

said ii was a legitimate enterprise
which was not looking for government,

upon the Indian appropriation bill was
adopted and a number of minor bills
we're put through the Anal stages.
The conference report on the st.

bill was side-tracked early in the day
by a vote Of the house.
I'm the Senate.
During the great part of a long,
tiresome session of the senate yester-
day the sundry civil appropriation bill
was under consideration. An interest
ing and at times lively debate was
precipitated in the first two hours OF
the session on a resolution I'd, dis
charge the committee on interstate
commerce from consideration of the
bill requiring railway companies TO.
make detailed Investigations of all ac-
|eidents involving loss of life on their
lines and TO report to the interstate
commerce commission. No action was
taken. The old question as to the
reclamation of public lands in the arid
and semi-arid sections Of the country
were brought up. but the effort to at
tach an amendment to the measure
appropriating money for the wark was
defeated.
The bills appropriating $500. 900 for
the Buffalo Pan-American exposition,
S.O00,0o for the st. Louis Louisiana
Purchase exposition and $3.50, 900 for
the Charleston, s. c.. Interstate and

Havana, March 3-The constitutional

best course to pursue In view of the ac-

clcimed hat some of the delegates are
in favor of breaking up the convention,
while others wish to complete the work
fer which they are convened by formu-
lating ar election law. The opinion is ex-
pressed hat the convention might have
proved less radical IL the administration

Hospitals in our great cities are sad places to visit.
Three-fourths of the patients lying on those snow white
beds are women and girls.
Why should this be the casef
Because they have neglected themselves.
Every one OF these patients in the hospital beds had plenty
of warning in that bearing down feeling, pain at the left or
right of the womb. nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of
the back. All of these things are indications of an unhealthy
condition of the ovaries or womb.
What a terrifying thought these poor souls are lying
there on those hospital beds awaiting a fearful operation.
Do not drag along at home or in your place of employ
ment until you are obliged to go to the hospital and submit to
an examination and possible operation. Build up the female
system. cure the arrangements which have signified them
selves by danger signals, and remember that Lydia e.

of women from the hospital. Read the letter here published
