Euther r. Hoffman died at the Indian
school last night about 10 O'Clock after

newspaper man and a good and con

even then no prospect OF his recovery

the school and altogether made himself
"a valued attache Of that institution.

pupils for the school and in that way

about the Indians Of Arizona, which

Kidney trouble often becomes adj.

is why we read of so many sudden

YESTERDAYS HORSE RACE
1t Was Like Old Times and Lots of
Money Changed Hands.

The way people turned out to the
Phoenix driving park yesterday and
the way they juggled with the long
green was like old times in Arizona
when the few people who lived here All
had gold mines or COW ranches. with
plenty of money to burn. and their one
ambition WAS to see how big u blaze
they could mako.
one OF the largest crowds that has
been seen at the track for years was
present, and nearly everybody went for
the purpose of increasing the size of
his bank roll or paying the market
price for sporting experience. There
were two match running races. each
for quarter mile dash. and there was
$500 stake money up on each side of
each race. But the stake money was
only n sort of head center for opera
lions and to insure good races. The
real financiering was going on among
the spectators and almost everybody
had Il deal on.
Probably the most exciting race was
the dash between Jack Gibson's Bella
dona and Nellie Mac. owned by Bob
Allen. Nellie Mac is the little roam
cayuse that has no pride of parentage.
that she was ever born. She was acct
dentally discovered here a year or so
ago by Jim Graham. who put her on
the track and picked up all the money
that was offered against her. She
seemed born winner and soon came
to be considerd invincible. But Jack
Gibson went prospecting around among
the Mesa city horseflesh and finally
laid eyes on Belladona. who had never
run but one race in her life. He sized
her up as just. one better than the roam
pony and put up his money. The result
was very satisfactory. for he pulled
Aliens money down and the time
keeper called out 23a4
The next race was between Lottie
Sparks. owned by AL Smoot. and Dandy
Jim. owned by McEwen Bros. OF
Tucson. Dandy Jim has hitherto done
some fine work and both horses had
strong backing. But Jim. being a
dandy. could not courteously do 9TH
erwise before so large an assemblage
than to let the lady win. Lottie's time
was 24A. There was good feeling
throughout and many who played the
favorite to their sorrow in the first
race evened M on the second. The
jockeys were all right, Graham riding
the roam pony in the first race. while
Commodore Passey. Gibson's we'll
known rider. pulled the reins over the
neck of Belladona.
Mr.. Gibson was so elated with the
work of his horse that he began at
once to agitate the desira biIity Of .
speed trial between BelIadona and Lot
tie Sharks. lie said last night that he
was open for n match for 1000. a side
for three-eighths or half mile any
time within the next ten days. 1t is
therefore not Improbable that another
day of sport VIII be arranged for soon.
The track was pretty heavy yetser-
day. owing to the recent rains, and bet
ter time was looked for. but the record
made was good. nevertheless, and fully
up to anything heretofore seen on the
Phuenfx track.

A convict had perfected die and was making silver dollars and dis tlibuting them through accOmplices on the outside Naturally the officials were very much surprised at the dis ccvcry, but 20 more so than the person who receives a counterfeit article in place of the genuine.

PiCaci0 Operations.

Hon. Harry Carpenter returned from Picacho last Thursday. He reports that the excavation for the l000-ton re- duction works is about completed. The five large boilers are in place and the erection of the building is under way. Mel Greenleaf, formerly section fore man on the Southern Pacific, las ac- cepted the position of superintendent of construction on the railroad from the mines to the reduction works, a distance of five miles, and work on that branch of the enterprise is now under way. The mines are being put in con- dition to supply the great quantity of ore which will be daily required to keep the mammoth reduction plant gO- ing. but the ore bodies are of such magnitude that it will take many years to exhaust the supply, even at the rate of 1000 tons per day.
 The company is erecting store at the mines, and all the indications are that Picacho is to become one of the greatest mining camps in the United States.

The Rio Del Monte Mines.

The Rio Del Monte Gold Mines com pany, which owns the group of mines lying between Harqua Hala and Har- risburg, in Yuma county, is about to commence the erection of an S0-stamp mill on the property, and within the next sixty days active operations will be under way. The late examinations made by several eminent mining men have resulted in satisfactory reports, and these mines promise to equal in output the famous Harqua Hala mines, which were at enc time great prCdu- cers. The Del Monte mines are about three and half miles from Harqua Hala. Ex-United States Senator Pea tigrew of South Dakota will be general manager of this property.

4 FrigIltfuI Railroad Accident.

One of the most appalling accidents in the history of western railroads oc- cured on the Southern Pacific last Friday morning at 3 o'clock, twenty five miles west Of Sanderson, Texas, A revised list of the killed gives the number as eighteen, while twenty eight to thirty were more or less seri- ously injured. All of those killed in the coaches just behind the express and baggage cars were cremated.
 The exact cause of the accident is not known. It is given out by railroad officials that it was caused by obstruc- tiCns placed on the track, but some of the surviving passengers assert that it was caused by the great speed the train was making in rough country where there are many sharp curves: the en- zine left the track at the foot of a steep grade, and on reverse curve, the ears
