Mrs. S, C. Vaughan Dies as the Re-
suit Of a Distressing Accident.
Accidentally Shot By Her Grandson,
Master Vaughan Dsbney,
Last Evening.
ACCIDENT ARoUsEs SORROW

Mrs. s. @. Vaughan, one of Psdu.
cabs best known and most prominent
women, was accidentally shot and fat
ally wounded by her grandson, Master
Vaughan Dabney, with a 90 calibre
rifle about $3.50 O'Clock yesterday At.
ternoon at the Vaughan home at Fifth
and Harrison streets. An operation
was performed with a hope of saving
her life, but shortly after midnight
she breathed her last.
The accident was one of the most
deplorable that ever occurred in Padu-
cab. The little fellow, who is the 10
year old son of Dr. A. S. DabneY, was
preparing to practice with his rife,
which he was handed by his grand
mother. The latter went into the
room and lay down for a few moments
before supper, and the boy on the
porch outside began 20 try to load the
rifle. The hammer slipped and the
quo went off, proving that it was al
ready loaded, the ball passing through
the screen door and striking Mrs.
Vaughan. The ball entered behind
the right hip and passed through,
emerging to the left of the naval.
The wounded lady screamed, and
the boy, perceiving that she had been
hurt, franticslly started for his
fathers office to notify him.
Drs. Brooks, Murrell, Elliott,
Sights and Coleman were summoned,
and the wound was pronounced fatal
An operation was decided on as last
resort and an inoision made. II was
found that the ball had pierced both
sides Of the stomach, but did not cut
the intestines.
The patient rallied somewhat after
the operation, but then began "a
weaken, and shortly afte- l2 O'Clock
passed away.
Her grandson was almost frantic
over the sad accident He could not
be pacified, and finally became SC
crszed from grief that he had to b,
given hypodermic to quiet him.
There was great deal of excite
ment in the neighborhood and scores
of people called or remained about tn,
house through curiosity until late
hour.
The deceased was "A woman remark
able for her christian virtues and hei
popularity among those who knew
her. She was before marriage Miss
Julia Dade of Springfield, Mo-. and
was 80 years old. She was
married in the latter place in 1858,
AMI in 1869 they moved to st. Louis.
They lived for time in Ballard
county, but in 1869 came to this coun-
ty, and had since resided here. The
deceased was prominent church
worker, and a literary woman who
belonged to number of societies,
among them being the Daughters Of
the American Revolution. She leaves
besides husband three children,

Contests is Long Drawn Out-Favor-
ed Sons Complimented BY Home
Counties Votes.
THE CONVENTION ADJOURNED
Judge Mum was nominated for
judge Of court of appeals on the sixty
second ballot, receiving 106 votes.

The various forces at work in the
Democratic appellate convention Of
the First district seemed to be totally
at sea this morning. No one knew
what 10 expect OF what was coming.
/ Various schemes to floor the combina-
tion or TO drop the weaker candidates
were talked or, but none materialized.
Every fellow seemed to be afraid OF
the other man
Judge Mum, while obviously the
strongest candidate, was unable TO do
anything against the combination, and
separate members of the combination
were unable to do anything against
him.
No one ventured TO move that the
hindmost man be dropped, because
conflicting reports about how some
of the delegations were apt to switch
in suoh event made IL risky to guess
how such action would terminate.
This afternoon, before the conven-
tion reconvened, IL was rumored that
Robbins had won over some Of, II not
all Of, the White men, who decided
that they could not afford to throw
him down. On the other hand. it WAS
also reported that it was anything to
beat Mum, Wristbands the best chance
of winning, while there were other
reports Of dark horse.
THIS MORNINGS SESSION.
The delegates were q little behind
hand In assembling this morning. II
was $3.50 when Chairman Yeaman in
the presence Of another large crowd
called the convention to order, and in
structed the secretary to call the roll
Of counties for the second ballot. The
vote showed exactly the Same as the
first ballot last night.
The succeeding twelve ballots re-
suited likewise
On the 18th ballot Union county
voted 1G votes for O. O. Gresham Ct
Livingston which was the only change
made that far.
Robbins 81, Cook 49, Mum 81,
White 81, Grasshsm 10.
Union county switched back to
Num- ON the sixteenth ballot, making
the result the same as in the first four
teen ballots.
In the seventeenth ballot Webster
voted twelve for ". E. Bourland of
Webster, making the result Mum n,
Cook 49, Robbins 81, Bourland IL and
White 81.
In the eighteenth ballot Union vot-
cd 16 for Fleming G. Gordon of Hop
kins county, not changing the result
so far as a nomination was concerned.
Union county voted 10 for ID. H.
Hughes of Union county on the TWEEN
tieth ballot and Webster i2 votes for
Hughes.
Tho succeeding ballots to the thirty.
fourth were with the same result.
In the thirty fourth ballot Hopkins
was passed and didn't vote, and after
the last county had been called the.
vote stood; White 20, Mum SO, Cook |
43, Robbins 81.
Before the thirty-sixth ballot, Mr..
Ed Walker of Clinton moved that
the convention adjourn until O'Clock,
but received no second, and was told
to "go way back and sit down"

A Submerged Electric rIotor.

Is new device by which any small rowboat can be easily transformed into power-propelling craft without mak- ing the slightest alteration in it. If people who are suffering from ailments of the stomach, liver and bowels would try HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, their condition would gradually improve un til they are completely transformed from the weak, nervous condition to one of robust health. It is medicine that the most delicate stomach can re- tain and one that will not shock the system. During the past fifty years hundreds of people have voluntarily testified to its efficacy in cases of head ache, indigestion, dyspepsia, constipa- tion, nervousness, liver and kidney troubles, malaria, fever and ague. We would therefore urge you to try bot tie and satisfy yourself.

A Remarkable Echo.

The reported burglary of k. F. San
 guinetti's big store, corner of Second
 and Main streets. was a mistake The
 origin of the report was peculiar. As
 Mr. Sanguinetti was closing his store for the night, and after locking the
 front door, he heard what plainly seemed the opening and closing of the door opening into the dry goods depart ment, some little distance to the south, and immediately followed by noises as of persons inside the store. Coming to the door, he found it closed but un- locKed. It seemed absolutely certain to him that thieves were inside and helping themselves. Being unarmed he summoned O. F. Townsend and to- gether they entered the building, pre- pared for an exciting emergency which they fully expected to encounter. What was their surprise to find every thing in Order-no burglars, thieves or any living thing except the store cat, and he was sleeping peacefully. Mir. Sanguinetti closed up and went home, puzzled and unable to account for the circumstance. But it was un- raveled the next evening in very natural way. It seems that Charley Stowe closes his place of business across the street and north of the op- pOsite corner from the store about the same time Sanguinetti closes his, and as the latter turned the key in the door he heard the same crashing of the side door and rattle-te- bang inside. This time he was more careful to- look around and locate the noise. It was merely the echo from the shutting of doors and windows by Stowe across on the other corner. But it is a remark able echo, and it is not surprising that Mr. Sanguinetti was fooled by it.

Change ot Prison Management.

From and after Monday, September
 lst, the territorial prison of Arizona,
 will be under new management-that is to say, it will have a new superin- tendcnt, in the person of Col. Wm. H. Griffith, formerly United States Mar shal, and new assistant superintend- ent, who will be Yuma county man probably Geo. Wilder-who at this time appears to have call on the ap- pointment. It is generally understood that Walter Gregory of Phoenix will be appointed secretary, but as to other changes at the prison, if any are con- templated, We have no ''inside' infor- mation-in fact know nothing about it. The employment of guards or other attaches is supposed to be within the province of the superintendent, who we presume will make such changes, or no changes, as he sees fit.
 The fact has been generally known that MT. Brown rendered his resigna- tiOn as superintendent some time ago, and the name of his successor has been strongly surmised, so that his appoint ment, which will be announced within a few days would cause no surprise, even without this previous and un- official announcement.
 Mr. Brown, we understand, will re- main in Yuma and will take charge as lessee and landlord of the Gandolfo hotel. He has many friends in Yuma, who will be gratifed to know that he will remain here.

Attempted Burglary.

Some one removed an iron bar from a window opening into the Sanguinetti furniture store Thursday night with the evident intention of entering the ad- joining room, corner of First and Main streets, for the purpose of theft. The thief, however, was unable to effect an entrance to the grocery, and vamoosed empty handed. The heavy iron bar taken from the widow was bent to al- most a complete circle.
