A TOMBSTONE EPISODE
Illustrating the Fact That Men are
Sometimes Mistaken.

An Interesting little story was waited
over from Tombstone in the sandstorm
the other evening. A Phoenix citizen
who finds supreme pleasure in waging
his fortunes on the roulette wheel, when
not occupied by business engagements
and when he has the money by him to
do the waglng with, found himself in
Tombstone not lorg ago He entered
a well known saloon and gambling
house and. edging over to the liable.
bought a few stacks. The only other
man playing was a husky miner. who Is
clearly sort of fellow, though he was
lIat.er sLabbily dressed. The bail made
few wAirls and both payers began
to get nervous. Each eyed the other
susl .t.C@sly, shifted the air and scowl-
ell. The game preceded iii Il became
dppCatent Ia all In the room that trou-
bic was brewing between the players.
n terrible odor permeated the atmos-
phere and both che barke eper and the
dealer got whit OF 1t. Both knew that
the odor came from outside the table.
They know that something ougE, 10

tlently for the issue TO work itself out.
They knew this was the safest plan, for
II was evident th.Lt each payer sus-
pected :hat the other had something
dead about HIM, and each was already
on the point of accusing the other of
being IL menace to the public health by
reason Of mis- neglect to observe hygi-
enic principles in the care OF his feet.
Finally the Phoenix man ''cashed in, -
saying that the atmosphere was too
rank FOR him there. though he would
I like to play While longer If he could
do so without endangering his health
or being placed in quarantine when he
went to his hotel. The miner said he
was glad that the Phoenix man had de-
cided to quit, as he wanted to spend a
little more money IN the house. hut
would not do go at ne risk Of his con-
stitution. He said he had worked in
slaughter houses, soap factories and
glue factories. but he did so only when
he was making money instead of spend
ing It,
The issue WAS now ripe and the two
players giared at each' other, inter
changing acrimonious remarks. Finally
the barkeeper and tine dealer got be-
tween them and said they wanted no
trouble, but II the gentlemen would
be calm they would endeavor to trace
out the cause of the trouble which kept
getting worse. By series Of shifts
they eventually located aNbig chunk Of
Limburger cheese in the pocket of the
Phoenix man. where 1t had been placed
surreptltiously by a friend about the
time he entered the saloon. Then every
body bought things and the band
played on.

THE JUST LEFT OUT
1t Rained Everywhere Except in the
Salt River Valley.

The Salt River valley has been al
most encircleIl with heavy rains. but
so far as is known not a drop has fallen
In II and very Hytle in the headwaters
of the river. There are Indications,
though, that the drenGhing 81 the val
ley will not be much longer delayed.
There was a rain ON Saturday at Wick
enburg said to have been the hardest
,Eat has fallen in years. Every arroyo
became a raging torrent. The good for
ture OF the stockunen in that region is
assured for this season at least.
Later reports from Iron Springs mag
nifty the rain and hail storm there. John
Orme. who returned from the Springs
yesterday morning. says that the hail
Storm was one of the, hardest he ever
saw. The colonists could hardly keep
comfortable with their overcoats ON
At Prescott, Granite creek was filed
from bank to bank aud the whole coun-
try was well soaked. The rain extended
at lCayi, as far north as the Santa Fe
Pacific and as far east as Flagstaff. No
reports have been received east of that

A great area of country, covering per-
haps the whole southwestern part of

AN EASTWARD JOURNEY
Leung Yonk and Lee May Left for
Home Last Night.

Leung Youk and Lee Moy. the two
Chinese girls who have been lying in
jail under an order OF deporta ton for
the last two weeks. were taken away
last night by United States Marshal
McCord. They will reach San Fran
cisco on Tuesday and win be imms d.
lately put on a vessel, which will sail
fol the Orient at that time.
1t is apprehended that an effort may
be made to get the girls out Of the
hands of the marshal in the passage
through San Francisco. They have cost
the promoters of the transaction a
great deal and il Is quite likely that
they win make last desperate effort
to save something from the wreck.
The girls went away cheerful in the
prospect OF soon being home again.
They had many visitors yesterday af-
ternoon. They are well provided for
their journey and will get back to
Hong Kong in much better financial
shape than when they went away.

OFFICIAL CHANGES
New Appointments Of the Governor
and Territorial Secretary.

There were several official changes
made in the appcin;i,e organization Of
the territorial government on Saturday.
DIR. d. NJ Pumln having resigned his
position ON the territorial board Of med
ioal examiners, Dr. Ancil Martin of
this city was appointed 10 succeed him.
Secretary StOddard has completed the
reorganization of his official force by
the appointment of William English To
succeed Harry r. Trltle. who left for
Prescott on Saturday night. Mr.. En-
gish has been associated with Attorney
General Ainsworth in the practice OF
law since coming here two years ago
from Washington, D. 9. He is a COM
petent office man, having had great
deal Of experience In that kind OF work.
Shortly after taking possession OF the
office Secretary Stoddard secured the
services Of Miss Ma1ge Dawes as stem
ographer and assistant librarian, and
having proved most competent in that
capacity She viii be retained. Mr..
Stoddard has been slow In organizing
his clerical force for he reason that he
has had tine single object in view Of
securing the most competent help, even
though 1t became necessary to 'urn a
deaf ear to the politicians.

A TRAGIC EPISODE.
One Miner Killed, Another Hurt by
Premature Explosion.

BY the premature explosion of a blast
John II. Baker Jr.. was killed ana
Willie Pemberton badly hurt at their
mining claim on the Salome. about
twelve miles from Upper Salt river in
ella county, on Saturday, July 18th.
The story Of the accident which was
first learned Of here through the Globe
Silver Belt, that arrived yesterday, Is
as follows:
Baker and Pemberton were running
an open cut to the edge, and at noon,
on Saturday. had loaded their holes
and Baker was In the act OF touching
off the fuse. Pembarton was Standing
on the edge Of the cut few feet
above Baker. who struck match ana
applied it to the fuse, when instantly
the blast went off. Pemberton was
struck In the face by the lying parti-
Giles Of rock and fell into the cut I'M
conscious When he recovered his
senses. still blinded by the explosion.
he felt about for his companion, and
found him with the top Of his head
blown off.
Pemberton then started TO go TO the
camp nearly two miles from the mine
and being unable To see, was compelled
to crawl over the uneven and rocky
ground. In his pitlabe condition the
experience was painful and distressing
and II Is surprising even with his
knowledge Of the ground that he was
able TO feel his way and reach camp,
which he succeeded in doing on sun
day morning suffering great pain and
almost famished for water with his
hands and knees lacerated from crawl
Ing over the rocks.
On Monday morning, j. II. Baker.
Sr.. arrived at the camp. found Penn
berton and learned OF the accident
which had bereft him of a son. Upon
going to the mine young Bakers body
was found TO be so badly decomposed
that It could not be removed to his
home. and was buried near where he
met his death.
Willie Pe.nberton was taken to his
home on the river and when Mr.. Ed
wards. who brought the news to town,
left there he had improved con-
siderably. 1t was thought his eye
sight would be found to be not SER
iously impaired when the swelling of

city. but none Of them had been called
upon to attend a man suffering from
a gunshot wound since the night OF
July is. when Morales said the shoot
ing occurred. though the witness said
II too kplace on SatuI day morning.
There has been no irregular inter
ment at any of the cemeteries and
the officers are well satisfied that none
could have taken place anywhere else
il the shooting occurred on the morn
ing of Saturday without the knowledge
of people living In the vi,inity where
the unknown man is said 10 have
fallen. The neighborhood is thick'y
settled and the witness said the man
was still lying at daSbreak where he
had fallen.

Morales the Shooter is Therefore
Turned Out of Jail.

Ramon Morales arrested on Satur-
day on suspicion 6f having shot and
either wounded or killed an unknown
man. was discharged from custody
who claimed to have seen the shoot
ing. There is doubt that there was a
shooting. for Morales admitted 1t aim
self, but under circumstances different
from those described by the boy. The
sheriffs officers made a most diligent
search for the corpus deficit, and could
not find even so much as a drop of red

Neither Baker nor Pemberton had
much experience in mining. and the
most reasonable theory of the acct

miles long. the only railroad on the

showing all details-routes, grades,

tions, etc English capital became
interested, a rigid contract was en-
tered into, and the work was begun.
1t was discovered in many cases that
the engineers reporting the survey

Gated solid ground. and dense jun
giles existed on the route where the
foot of man had never trod. Even
rivers were there of whose existence
the engineers were ignorant. The
English company was obliged to ex-

mated amount, and had to face many
grave engineering problems that the
Spanish engineers had not dreamed
of while surveying the route from
their comfortable office in Manila

The very fact that the president
showed his confidence in the mass

tending the hand of fellowship in
such free and democratic tashio n
to any who wished it, would seem
to have been enough to disarm
hostile feelings and protect him
from harm. In European mon
arches, where rulers never stir
without armed guards, showing
suspicion of evil being intended
against them, where only a chosen
few ever have the privilege of
meeting them and then only to
bow in homage, it might he more
natural for a spirit of antagonism
to power to fill the breast of the
restless, unsuccessful aud disco
