WHY so MANY WOMAN
ARE INVALIDS.
Ambitious Parents Overload Their
Daughters With Accomplishments.

Ambitious Parents Overload Their
Daughters With Accomplishments.
The insane desire of fond par
rents that their children shall
''shine" in their studies and accom-
plishments is one topic vigorously
dealt with by Edward Box in his
editorial in The Ladies Home Jour
nal for September. Regarding the
girls side of this widespread evil
he says; "There are parents who,
not content with the studies which
their daughters have to grapple
with at school, load them down
with few special studies in the
finer arts. ] have in mind now
several young girls between the
precarious ages Of twelve and
seventeen, who, after they return
from school, have an extra dose
of painting, music or languages.
But my daughter must know some
thing of these things is the pro
test of the fond mother. She must
be able to hold her own with other
girls of her set OF course, the
girl at this tender age, with such
a mental load, soon goes to pieces.
She becomes an@mic, listlesS and
nervous, and then the mother Won
ders why! To build her up every
thing under the sun is tried except
a lessening of mental work and the
unnatural strain upon the nervous
system. The girl develops into
what? A bundle of nerves encas-
ed in the most fragile frame, her
physical vitality sapped almost to
the last dreg. And in this condi
ton she enters the marriage state!
And yet we wonder why there are
so few women absolutely free from
organic troubles. Is it so mex
plicable?"

The Last 'Notiee of Intention" Filed

The time when notices of inten-

close Of business in the Office of
the territorial secretary yesterday
afternoon. If all the railroads de-
scribed in the notices should be
built considerable area of the
cattle range territory would be
covered by steel rails and the i'm
portant industry in Arizona would
be greatly reduced. There is no
doubt though that many of the in
tentions of which notice has been
given will not be carried out. The
Republican says: Within the last
few days more than fifty filings
have been made. Among the late
ones are: By Thomas Mitchell of
a road from Nogales easterly to
Washington camp, twenty-six
miles; by G. f. Ainsworth of a
road easterly from Phoenix to the
Colorado river in Yuma county,

THE LATEST HORROR.
Fatal Accident at the o. ID. Smelter-A
Cable Breaks and Crushes Life Out.

Last Tuesday afternoon Silas j.
Johnson, who has dumped buckets
into the bins of the o. D. smelter
for q long time, was on duty as
usual, He had just dumped a
tram bucket and was turning to peg
up when the stationary cable
broke. This allowed all the
weight Of the buckets to come
down on the smaller cable which
pulls them, and the irresistible force
pulled down the big horizontal
sheave with the frame supporting
it. Johnson was inside the COM
bination, and before he could move
was pinned by some part OF the
broken machinery against a solid
timber, and sustained such terrible
injury that no hopes were at any
time entertained of his recovery.
He was conscious while being con-
vcyed to the hospital and seemed
to fully comprehend the character
and extent of his injury. At the
hospital, Doctors Collins, Fox and
Maisch did everything which skill
and experience could suggest, but
the most that could be done was
to relieve the acute agony by hypo
injections, which was done. The
unfortunate man died in about
twenty minutes after arriving at
the hospital.
Johnson was a resident of Salt
river valley for years, and was
about thirty years Of age. He

SHOCKING TRAGEDY.
Two uexisans Lay Down to sleep On Santa
Fe Track at Fierro and Are Run Over

One of the most shocking ac-
cidents that has occurred in Grant
county for some time was enacted
at Fierro last Tuesday, says the
Silver City Enterprise. Two Mexi-
leans, Elrino Chavez and Leon
Mora, were run over by the Santa
Fe train and were decapitated be-
sides being otherwise horribly
mangled.
The tragedy occurred Tuesday
night. Mora, tits understood, was
engaged to a step-daughter Of
Chavez and the wedding was to
have taken place Wednesday,.
Both men were celebrating in an
ticipation of the joyful event and
were drinking heavily during the
evening at the different resorts in
the camp. Sometime early in the
evening they started down the
Santa Fe track leading to Hanover
and when just outside the limits of
Fierro, they lay down to "sleep
off, the effects of their dissipation.
AS it was long past train time it is
supposed they thought the train
had passed, but unfortunately it
was eight hours late that evening.
The train came along before ten
o'clock, but the heavy rumble fail
ed TO arouse the sleepers and the
entire train passed over their pros
trate bodies. The remains were
not discovered until early Wednes-
day morning by men going to
work. Both bodies were headless
and were otherwise horribly
mangled.

FOUR MEN DEAD.
Row Has Existed Since the Civil War
May Have to Cali Out State Troops.

May have TO Call Out state Troops.
A Williamsburg, KY, dispatch
dated last Friday says: News has
just reached here Of a bloody battle
in the eastern part Of this county
in which Jack Logan and his two
sons and two Wilson brothers were
killed by West Mays and Geo.
Golden in a family feud. The
fight between these families, all of
them being kin folks, began soon
after the civil war.
More than dozen people have
already been killed, the last fight
having occurred about ten years
ago. The parents of the men en-
gagged in the present row were
then killed.
1t was well understood in the
neighborhood that when the boys
got old enough the feud would be
resumed.
A sheriff's posse has gone to the
scene of the fight, and it may be
necessary to appeal to the Cover
nor TO call out State-.tgoops.

CHINESE SMUGGLING.

For long time it has been
known that scores of Chinese were
being smuggled across the border
from Mexico into the United States.
To the average citizen it appeared
that this smuggling was done by
men living in Mexico, but events
Of the past few days prove that
government officials thought diff
ferently. On reports sent from
Nogales to Washington that GUS
tom officials were the real snug
glers secret service men were put
on the case and they worked in
their own peculiar and quiet way
until they fixed the guilt on Col,
lector Hoey and Inspector Jossey.
The arrest of the two men was
ordered but before papers were
served Jossey killed himself by
shooting himself in the stomach.
Accidental killing said the coro-
ner's jury, but the public generally
believe it to have been suicide. No
matter whether it was suicide or
accidental, it is two to one bet
that the whole guilt will be tasten
ed upon the dead man and the live
one go free. Hocy, the live snug
gler, came from the same town
that Necley, the Cuban postal
thief did, was close friend Of his
and was appointed through the
influence of the same man, Perry
Heath.
Before the smuggling began
Jossey and Hoey induced the
Washington government to remove
every honest official that they be-
lieved were in a position to detect
their rascality. But in this they
were mistaken, there were more
honest men in the service than
they counted on.

THE secret of success for any
city, town or community, says
the Free Press, is to encourage
local enterprise, patronize home
industry, and all ''pull together"
BY following this policy it will
soon be discovered that what bene-
fits one benefits all, and that un-
tied effort will bring prosperity.
Whenever any community departs
from a liberal olive and let live"
policy, it is going backward.

TO Mt. GRAHAM.

Hail! heaven-heaped hill,
Stern, stately and steep;
Where the damp dew distill-
In the grim gorges deep.
Where soft splendor shines,
In the mystic moon rays,
And the wind through the pines,
Chants an anthem of praise.
Where the heavens seem near
With their star dimpled cheeks,
And the glory shines clear
On the skytowering peaks.
Where the storm-furies steal,
And the wild waters dash;
Mid the thunder-voice peal
And the Tightening full flash.
Hail! King of the peaks
Where beauty hath trod,
For thy majesty speaks
To my spirit of God
For the hand that carved thee,
And painted the sky
And the heart that loved me
Together did die
On Calvary's mountain
Was lifted on high. -"Bro. joe"

THE GUARDIAN favors the prop
osition Of making a forest reserve
of the Graham mountains and the
Bulletin opposes it. The people Of
this valley, who are most vitality
interested, can plainly see the desc
lation that follows the destruction
of the mountain forests, and hence
favor the reservation Of all the
forests of the territory under
proper restrictions for cutting the
timber. Without those forests
Arizona would soon become unin-
habitable.- Florence Tribune.
When the editor Of the Bulletin
wrote the article opposing the
forest reserve he was not posted
on the situation. The next week,
after reading the GUARDIANS edi-
torial, and the reasons given there
in for favoring the reserve Bro.
Kelly wrote an article and pub
plished it in the Bulletin squarely
favoling the proposition.

JOHN PIERPoINT MORGAN's five
words. "There will be no com
promise" when asked what would
be done in the steel workers strike
caused stocks in the trust to drop
50,00O,000 within an hour-fve
words at s10,0O0,OO0 per word!
And they may cost much more
than that before the trouble is over.
Those words sound horribly like
the words of the French nobleman
who, when told that the peasantry
were starving, replied, ''Let them
eat grass" The French revolution
came soon after, and an infuriated
mob carried the nobleman's head,
the mouth stuffed with grass,
through the streets of Paris. We
hope there will never be such a
scene in this land of plenty.-S.
