 The following are the successful can- didates;
 Mayor-J. H. Shanssey, reelected.
 COuncilmen-J. E. Devine, editor of the Yuma Sun; Jack Dunne, proprietor of "The Ruby"
 Treasurer-A. Modesti.
 Assessor-G. H. Miles.
 Marshal-H. H. McPhaul.
 The reelection of Col. Shanssey for the third term is a compliment to the gentleman and strong endorsement of his conduct of the chief office of the city, for the past three years.
 Councilmen-elect Devine and Dunne are both good men and property holders. MT. Dunne has filled the office before, and the handsome vote he received yes terday shows that the people have con- fidence in him. MT. Devine being a newspaper man is necessarily good man for any position. Deacon, the Sentinel salutes you.

Los Tres Reyes MagoS.

The pastoral drama, Los Tres Reyes Magos, was presented by Spanish-Ame- rican home talent at the convent last Sunday night to a large audience. Translated, the title of the play signi- fies "The Three Kings" It is founded upon Biblican scenes and incidents of the coming of the Messiah and the birth of Christ. The chief interest to one not accurately familiar with the dialo- que centers in the general presentation of the drama-the delivery, carriage and costumes of the actors, and the scenes incident to the story of the birth of the Savior and of the prophecies of the coming of the Messiah. The pre- sentation was highly appreciated by the Spanish and Americans present as was attes:ed by the frequent and hearty ap- plause. To say that the play was in- tensely interesting, would be but an expression of the truth. The acting was all that could be desired. The scenery and costumes were all appro- priate and the ladies, they were lovely.
 Following is the cast:

The Twentieth Century.

We now stand at the threshold of the twentieth century; the nineteenth is a thing of the past. It will, however, always be known as the century of in- vention and discovery, and among some of the greatest of these we can truth fully mention Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the celebrated remedy for all ailments arising from disordered stomach, such as dyspepsia, indiges- tion, fatulency, constipation, nervous ness and biliousness, It has been one of the greatest blessings to mankind during the past fifty years as health builder. Many prominent physicians prescribe and recommend it. Take their advice, try bottle and be con- vinced, but be sure to get the genuine, with our Private Revenue Stamp over the neck of the bottle.

Attempted HOld-Up.

Some fellow followed John Rimpau, a prominent Yuma merchant, to his home last night about 8 o'clock and at his gate pulled gun which Mir. Rimpau thinks was about four feet long Johnny was scared) and sang out: Glands up, you s-of b-!" Johnny didn't wait to hear what else the fellow had to say, but with several yells and series of rapid-fire movements of his feet and legs landed safely inside and shook hands with himself at his providential escape. Johnny says the fellow had the appearance of hobo.
 The hobo question is getting to be a serious one; something will happen here to the hobo element one of these days that will make that class glad to stay away from Yuma for good.

THE BODY FOUND.
Remains of w. L. Hopkins, Victim of the Desert, Recovered Brought to Yuma Sum-
 day Night.

Last Sunday night at or near mid night the dead body of w. L. Hopkins, was brought into Yuma by Joe Wern- finger, the body having been found on Friday, the 4th inst, at point two miles northwest from GlamiS and five miles from BayHorse mine, from whence the unfortunate man started on the trip which cost him his life. He was found in deep gulch lying upon his back against bank, and it is thought most likely that he had perished from the severe cold which prevailed on the night of the 10th, that being the date of his disappearance, instead of the 18th as stated last week. If this be true he had been dead fifteen days when found, and yet the body had not commenced to decompose at all, which may be ac- counted for by the cool weather pre- vailing ever since.
 The body was placed in the court room, and left there until Monday at II o'clock, when funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. E. Crouch, of the M. E. church, assisted by Adjutant Mashburn of the Salvation Army. The services were simple, but impressive, and large number of the friends of the deceased were present, and num- Der followed the remains to their last resting place in the Protestant ceme- tery.
 The following gentlemen acted as pail bearers: F. L. Ewing, Wm. Neahr, Dan Connor, Jno. Speese, A. Modesti, c. M. MOote.

own hands. Let the law take its course

Owing to the strong talk of lynching the three men held for the murder were today removed by the sheriff to the territorial prison for safe keeping.
 Owing to delay in going to press, we are enabled to give the verdict of the coroner's jury, which is, in substance, that Matthew B. De Vane came to his death from gun-shot wound, felonious- ly inflicted by Thomas Hart, who was aided and abetted in the crime by John Cody and James Wray, though it is doubtful that the two latter can be held on this serious charge. As they seem to have made no resistance to arrest, and simply ran away through fright at the possible consequences of the crime of their companion.
 Owing to possible danger of lynching no definite time has been fixed for the preliminary examination.
 The murder of Matt DeVane is one of the most deplorable that ever occurred in the city. Probably no man in Yuma had more friends. Genial, courteous and of an exceedingly jovial disposition, he made friends of all with whom he came in contact, and if he had an enemy we never heard of it. He has been in Yuma for about five years, having come here in 1896, and later filled the posi- tion of local weather observer. For the past six months he has been associated with MT. H. H. Robinson in the drug business. On the 1st of January he was appointed under sheriff, and in this first effort as peace officer lost his life. He was a young man yet, with life full of promise before him, cut short in the performance of his duty. The sorrow of his friends is sincere, and the regret of the community is deep and universal.
 MT. De Vane was chairman of the democratic central committee, and was quite prominent in local politics. He was brother of D. l.. De Vane the present county treasurer, and both are natives of North Carolina.
 The body was taken charge of by the Elks, of which order deceased was an honored member. Funeral services were held at Elks' hall at 2 o'clock D. m. today, and conducted in accord ance with the ritua1 Of the order The hall was densely crowded, and many moistened eyes were visible. The services were impressive, seemingly more affecting, perhaps, owing to the untimely death of beloved fellow citi zen, whose heart was always warm, and who always had a pleasant greeting for every one. The remains were inferred in the Protestant cemetery. It was one of the saddest funerals ever witnessed in Yuma

Arizona Giant Copper Co.

MT. N. G. Douglass, manager of the Arizona Giant Copper Company, was in Yuma last week and furnished the fol- lowing information to the SENTINEL concerning the properties of this com pany which are located in the Ehren- burg mining district:
 ''The company's property is showing up very satisfactorily. The contractors on the Trigo Group of the company's property are opening up fine body of high grade ore and the workings in the Self Defense group, are being pushed with all possible vigor. In this prop erty an ore body forty feet in width has been opened up and if this ore body con- tinues downward, this property alone will put the company on q large produc- tive basis.
 ''It is the purpose of the company to put in concentrating plant at an early date as we'll as shelter to treat their ore. It is estimated that enough ore has already been developed to keep a loo ton plant in operation for two years.
 ''The properties of thiscompany have the advantage of being near the Colo rado river and this means an easy out let for their product. The section of country around Ehrenburg has been known for many years as being rich in gold, silver and copper, and now that the Arizona Giant Copper Co.,, have made such progress and with such satis- factory results, we shall expect this section to soon take front rank among the wealth producing sections of Yuma county.
 "Within the memory of many of Yuma's citizens this section was the scene of great activity and the yearly gold production ran into the millions. 7"
 We congratulate the company on having secured a property of such worth as the several mines owned by them and when the company get their con- templated works in operation we pre- dict lively times on the Colorado river A new force of miners are on the way to the mines and it is the purpose of the company to let several new contracts very soon.

The Killing at Castle Dome.

The body of Juan Trejo, who was shot and killed at Castle Dome on New Years evening, was brought into Yuma Thursday night and on Friday Judge Reiff, acting coroner, empanelled a jury and began an inquest at 10 a. m. The investigation developed absolutely no- thing except that there was a drunken Mexican row in which Trejo was shot, and died several hours later. There is evidently a diposition on the part of those who witnessed the affair to screen the guilty man and it is strongly prob able that he will never be eapprehended. Sheriff Livingston, who went to Dome to investigate, returned Saturday. He says he could get no clue to the per- petrator, as the Mexicans there were determined not to reveal his identity.
 Juan Trejo recently finished term in the Yuma jail for selling liquor to Indians, and was considered danger Ous man,

The three participants in the murder Of Nj. B. De Vane are in the hands of the authorities.
