Wiltse Hit Hard.

Washington opened up on Wiltse in
lively fashion, and never let up until the
left handler had been driven to cover.
Thirteen hits. which sent seven men
around the bases, were made off Wiltse,
and two men were out, with one base oc-
cupied in the fifth. when Pete Hastings
picked up the burden of putting out the
Senators. Even a bigger total would
have been made OFF Wiltse but for the
fact that in three of the first four in

Wiltse was performing.

Employed by Railroad Force,
BODY FOUND BY BOYS.

Two startling discoveries have been
made by Sheriff Lucero concerning the
body of a man found by two boys, says
the I'll Paso News.
The first was that the body was
headless, indicating that the man was
murdered and the head removed TO
prevent his body being identified.
The second is that his body is most
likely that of Jay Cuttings, a civil ell
gineer Of FL Paso, who has been miss
ing for some time. He was known to
be prospecting in that section just be-
fore his mysterious disappearance
Sheriff LucerO, OF Dona Ana county,

the dead body just across the river in

officer is accompanied by NJ. A. Pag-
ano and they are waiting there for the
arrival of several men from Cham
berino, whom the sheriff sent for 10

cussed. The "old man. with his court
and soldiers, coming on the back of an
engle. and representing. in these times
of prosperity, the progress of wealth
of the country. was carefully consid-
cred. and it was decided to make this
feature one of the principal divisions
of the great trades display and pa
rade. AS the parade will be on a gran
der scale than ever, it is the wish of
the fair officials that every merchant
be represented by an appropriate float.
The next matter discussed was in
regard to fixing up the track, and it is
safe to say that the track will be in
tip top order when the horses are call
ed to the starting pole on the first day
of the fair.
The committee then selected a small
badge for the excursionists to wear to
Santa Fe on Sunday. The inscription
reads as follows: Come and bring the

side: Territorial fair, Albuquerque,

Pratt, Kan, Aug. 29.-Mrs. Kimball
is dead from "lumpy jaw" caught from
cattle, and Mr.. Cochrane of the Pratt
Republican has been brought to hos

with the disease. Another man, whose
name has not been learned, has caught
the disease by chewing a straw. Mr..
Cochrane caught the disease by lying
down in a pasture in which 'lumpy

say there are only six cases on record
where human beings have caught
'lumpy jaw" from cattle.

LUMBER KINGS DEATH.
A. ". Mitchell, While Nervous,
Leaps to His Death.
WAS KNOWN IN ALBUQUERQUE.

A. w. Mitchell, member of the
Mitchell Bros, the Michigan lumber
kings who were recently interested in
the timber lands of western Valencia
county, and who was well known in
this city, is dead under peculiarly sad
circumstances.
The San Francisco Examiner of re-
cent date contains the following ac-
count of his death:
A. w. Mitchell one of the millionaire
lumber kings of Michigan. and for the
last two years a resident of San Diego,
Cal, committed suicide on August II,
while mentally deranged, by leaping
into the sea from the deck of the Cop
tic, en- route to Hongkong. Mitchell
was surrounded by a group of passen-
gers at the time he made his plunge,
and was apparently the gayest of the
party. In his fall his head struck one
of the davit guy ropes with great force,
and it is presumed that he was stunned
by the impact. The vessel was imme-
diately brought about and lifeboats
lowered, but the body did not come to
the surface.
The deceased was 81 years of age, a
native of Cadillac, Mich. He leaves a
wife and two children. boy and girl,
aged respectively IL and Is years. who
at present live at San Diego. His
mother. 20 years of age, resides at Ca
dillac. She is in feeble health, and
fears are entertained that the news of
her sons tragic end will hasten her
death
On August 8, Mr.. Mitchell accom-
panied by DR.. C. f. Miller, of Cadillac,
and medical attendant from this city,
embarked on the Coptic for a trip
around the world. Mitchell had been a
sufferer from nervous prostration for
three years previous.
Upon reaching Honolulu, DR.. Miller
and the medical attendant left the
Coptic and took passage on the steam
er Conoma, which arrived in port yes
terday
The deceased, during his brief resi-
dence within California, became eX-
tremely interested in the local lumber
industry He was one of syndicate
which made large purchases of timber
lands in Shasta county, and was in
strumental in a movement having as
its object the control of the McCloud
river lumber belt.
