Rrom the St. Johns Herald.

The report came in that posse fol- lowing six outlaws ran on to them at sundown last Tuesday night, where hot battle took place and the report claims that Will Maxwell, who was with the pursuing party, was shot through the head aud killed
 Carlos Tafolla was shot through the right side below the rios. Perhaps fatal
 Owing to tue darkness coming on the posse was unable to go nearer the out laws position But it is supposed there was one outlaw killed and one wounded. Tue posse afterw lrd gained possession of the outlaws horses.
 Mir. E. T. HoIgate, a memoer of the posse who met the Smiths on the even ing of the Sth, returned home yesterday. MT Holgate says he was in the fight and was near the side of Mr. Tafolla when he was shot. Mir. Fafolla is iu 4 very serious condition. The hole ir his side is 80 large that Snea he drinks the water runs out through it. Hs was not expected to live over an hour or so when Mir Holgate left.
 Mir. Maxwell had the top of his head shot of and was instantly killed. He was also but short distance from Mr. Holgate.

 Los ANGELES. Oct 19.-The Associat- ed Press says "Brodie has not been appointed governor of Arizona. Prob ably will be when Gov. Murphy's term expires. The story published to the effect that governors commission had been issued is without foundation"
 Col William Christy was seen by Phoenix reporter and shown the above dispatch
 q kDow President Roosevelt would rather lose his right arm than to see hitch in the issuing of the commission as governor of this territory to Col. Brcdie I know that the appointment was twice offered to Col. Brodie and l was present when the position was offered to him for the third time. Col. BrodIe on this occasion accepted and President Roosevelt warmly grasped the right hand of Brodie thanling him for his accepting and at the same time remarking that he felt satisfied with the way Arizona wonld be governed during Col. Brodie's term of office. The President then introduced Cot. Brodie to the party of Arizonans who were present, among them myself, as Governor Brodie of Arizona He then said he would issue the com mission in few days and would seud the same to Brodie at his New Jersey home. l am sure the Associated Press is mistaken in their report"

Arsenic Eaters.

Among the peasants of Styria, Aus tria, the habit of arsenic eating is very prevalent. The habit is gradually acquired until they can consume enough to kill an ordinary man. The habit has to be left of as gradually as it was acquired. The persons addicted to this habit have fresh, youthful appear ance, but are liable to sudden death. It is interesting to note that the bodies of arsenic eaters can. be distinguished by their very perfect state of preser- vation, even although buried for long period.

For liberal Irritation Policy.

A policy of arid land reclamation to be effective must be conducted on a large scale. An appropriation of only $1 100000 would be childish. Two hundred and fifty million dollars was voted without discussion for tha Spanish war. This was for waste. In these days of large undertakings an ex penditure of s100 100000 for perna- nent improvement which will benefit millions of peop should not cause hesitation. Such amount properly used would add $3 ,0OO, ,OO0, 900 to the nation al wealth. Whileit would make homes for multitude of settlers the greatest benefits would come to the manufac- turers of the eastern and middle west ern states and their employees and to
 the cotton raisers and spinners uf the
 south.-tJ. J. HILL.

A Lucky Initiation.

Marshal Gourko. the famous Russian

one occasion an impersonator Of cele-
brated men WAS performing at a thea
ter in Odessa. One evening he received
a mysterious message, which read:
Study General Gourko." In Russia il
is better not to inquire into matters
that one does not understand, and so
the artist spent an hour in privately
impersonating the autocratic Russian
Just as the evening performance was
about to commence an order Of arrest
signed by Gourko was presented to the
impersonator, and without explanation
he was led through the streets to the
marshals palace and into an apartment
where the terrible man was seated.
'sThey tell me that you impersonate ceL
ebrated men," he roared. "Imperson-
ate me"
Giving a hasty look at Golrko, the
performer turned to the mirror to
make up" 1t was an anxious time,
for if the marshal should take excep-
ton to the representation he had IN
limited power to inhict punishment
The impersonator dragged himself to-
gether and turned to the marshal a COPY

Reed for MAYOR.

The name of Ex-speaker Thomas b.
Reed has been mentioned at the head Of
the list of available candidates for the
office of mayor of New York city. There
is no doubt but he would make a good
mayor and strong candidate but it is
not probable that he cares for the place,
however easily it might come to him.
1t is reported that Mr.. Reed when seen
by correspondent and informed that a
close friend of Vice President Roosevelt
and a member of New York's reform
Committee of Fifteen, had proposed him
az an antl-Tammany candidate for mayor
of New York, smiled at what he called
"the absurdity of the proposition. When
a man becomes mayor of New York;
said Mr.. Reed, "he makes many enemies.

A good, large company or corporation
with ample capital, is necessary In order
to the profitable transaction of any kind
of business on large scale, like the run
ming of railroad or steamboat lines, the
manufacture of iron, steel, woolens, cot
tons, boots, shoes, etc. But one of the
overwhelming size of the American Steel
Trust, hardly seems necessary. Ten cor
porations with hundred million dollars
capital each, would, we believe, be bet
ter for the country and all concerned
than one with billion dollars capital,
especially so il the mammoth concern is
disposed to be overbearing and exacting,
as the Steel Trust gives evidence of be-
ing in its dealing with the Amalgamated
Association of Steel Workers. What a
grand thing it would be at this stage if
the government, State or National, had
the power to say to the Steel Trust and
the Amalgamated Association, you are
both creatures of law, created to foster
and advance business, not to disturb and
destroy it, and cause sorrow, suffering
aud want among thousands of people all
over the land. Now your differences
must be submitted to fair arbitration,
whether you wish it or not. The fault
is not all on one side in these labor trou-
bles and an impartial tribunal of arbi-
tration could probably find means to set
tie the difficulties equitably, allow busi-
ness to 60 along and save vast amount
of want, suffering and perhaps bloodshed.
How much better this would be than a
long term of fighting that does no good
and then settlement by compromise
after deal of trouble and loss.

A bird with Four Feet.

This little creature, still to be found
In South America, is a relic of bygone
ages. 1t Is known as the crested hoatzin,
and the adult bird is about as big as
peacock.
The young birds, when Matched, have
four legs, the front pair being reptilan
In character, and have strong claws. AS
they grow older these claws fall off,
the legs become fattened, feathers
grow on them, and they develop into
wings.
These nestlings are the nearest APP
proach to a reptile that can be found
among birds and they can climb and
dive and swim with great facility.
