Fatal Accident.

Last Tuesday morning at about 7:30
o'clock, E. b. Chalk, bucket tender at
the Pinkham mine, Chloride, met with
an accident that caused almost instant
death. He was sitting on the edge of
the shaft awaiting the arrival of the
bucket from below, when the gallows
frame spread allowing the sheave to
slip from the pin aud in falling struck
Chalk on the head, arm aud leg. His
skull was fractured and arm and leg
broken. The engineer saw the acci
dent aud at once stopped the engine
and went to the assistance of the man.
AT first he thought him dead, but after
washing the blood and CRIME from his
face he regained consciousness and
spoke, Immediately relspsing into un.
consciousness. in which condition he
remained until death came late in the
evening.
Deceased came to Chloride about
three months ago and during his resi-
dence there made many friends. A
brother resides in Oakdale, Oklahoma,
and sister in some other part of the
west.
Messrs. Schee Brothers, owners of
the Pinkham mine, took charge of the
remains and the funeral took place
Wednesday afternoon. Judge Blakely,
of Kingman, conducted the funeral
services in the Chloride hall, and many
people followed the remains TO the
grave.

HIS Last Hope Realized.

(From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.)
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor Of this pa
per was among the many seekers after
fortune who made the big race one fine
day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim, he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave him very severe
diarrhoes which it seemed almost i'm
possible to check, and along in June
the case became so bad he expected to
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of Cham.
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about on the ground in great agony,
and in few minutes the dose was re.
peated. The good effect of the medi-
cine was soon noticed and within an
hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for fortnight That one
little bottle worked com olete cure,
and he cannot help but feel grateful

Lewis, the Indian, who killed Mar
shal Pete, chief of the Verde valley
Apache Mohave Indians, some time
since, and who last week pleaded
guilty to charge of murder, was this
morning sentenced to the penitentiary
for life. The killing was the outcome
of game of cards, in which four In
dians were engaged, and Lewis was the
loser.-Journal- Miner.

Last week on the Mescalero Apache
reservation in Otero county, New
Mexico, an Indian named Jack Fortier
killed the old Apache chief Tobasco.
Tobasco, two years ago, when Maj. W.
H. H. Llewellyn was Indian agent at
Mescalero, took shot at Llewellyn,
but failed to kill him. Tobasco was
an ex chief. The murderer fed to the
mountains. Tobasco was well named
as he was shot stuff. Copper Era.

For Statehood.

Last week at meeting of the bust.
ness men of Kingman it was decided
to appeal to the wholesalers and lob.
bers of California for aid in pressing
the statehood bill through congress.
A few days ago reply was received
from the Wholesalers Board of Trade
of Los Angeles, stating that action had
been taken on the request and the two
California senators had been wired by
the members individually to give the
statehood measure every aid ia its
passage through the senate of the
United States. The San Francisco
boards are also aiding in the good
work. The suggestion advanced by
our business men was a most timely
one and may result in great good to
the cause. California is all right for
statehood and the representatives from
that state need only little touching
up to make them get into the collar
and work for the cause.

Al. Anderson Again Injured.

That Al. Anderson is a very unlucky
young man his numerous accidents
would seem to indicate, but in each
one Of them he slipped out with a very
few scars. On the third OF this month
he was being hauled to the surface on
the skip, at the Burson Homestake
mine, near Wickenburg, in company of
other men, when the front wheel of
the skip came off throwing Anderson
against the tim bers of the shaft and
severely crushing him. The engineer
finally got the engine stopped and An
derson was taken out. At first it was
thought that he was fatally injured,
bat an examination by the doctor dis
closed the injuries to be superficial.
A great cash was cut in his head that
required about a dozen stitches to
close and his nose was split from the
point TO the forehead. He was taken
to Wickenburg and il now getting
along very nicely. About month ago
he was very badly injured and his
mate was killed by pump falling on
him. At the Empire mine, in this
county, some few years ago, he was
badly injured by cave. AL. had bet
ter give up mining and devote his fu-
ture years to alfalfa raising

At Sheriff Parks Whitlock cienega
last week the pump got out of order
and the troughs soon went dry. Only
a boy was at the ranch at the time, and
he could not fix the pump. The well
at the cienega is about 12xl5 feet, the
water coming to within a few feet of
the surface of the ground. After the
water was exhausted the cattle became
so thirsty that they broke down the
enclosure and about fifty of them piled
on top of each other in the we'll.
When the men arrived at the ranch
they found the well full of cattle and
we're kept busy for couple of days
pulling them out. Thirty head we're
dead, and most of the others so badly
injured that they will die.-Clifton

ii. l.. Dickson and Henry Lovin have
gone to Prescott, where they have
been summoned to appear in the case
Of the Santa Fe Pacific railroad com
pany in the matter of the taxation of
the railroad lands in this county.
These lands have been taxed at about
ninety cents per acre and the last Leg
islature fixed an arbitrary rate of sew.
enty five cents per acre, below which
the assessor could not go. This act
the railroad company allege to be un-
constitutional and we rather believe it
is, but at the same time the assessor
certainly is privileged to fix an assess.
ment on the lands of the com pany.
The value of these lands is somewhat
indefinite and cannot well be placed
at high valuation. The greater part
of the lands is valueless, but some of
the valley lands have been mortgaged
for large amounts. The outcome of
the suits is awaited with interest.
