WOULD-BE MURDERER
Emil Gerth Badly Wounded, Arthur
 Baker Fugitive.

Emil T. Gerth. d young man who came to Yuma last February from Sal Francisco, lies at the county hospital with bullet hole through his abdo- men. and his companion, Arthur Bak- CT, is q fugitive from justice. says the Yuma Sun.
 On the evening of April 9th Arthur Baker, Emil T. Gerth, A. Mcqueen and Frank Bichoff left Yuma in small beat for the Gulf of California, osten- sibly for the purpose of repairing some boats belonging to the Mexican Colo rado Navigation company.
 It seems that MT. Baker, who had worked on the steamer Retta q few days as engineer, employed the other men to assist him in making repairs on certain boats on the gulf, for which he claimed to have a contract.
 Everything went well until the party reached the head of the gulf, where no boat belonging to the Mexican Colo rado Navigation company, or any other company, could be found. Under the leadership of Baker the party wan dered over the headWaters of the gulf for four days in an open boat and sui fered q great deal for the want Of water. The beginning of the trouble which lead up to the shooting was caused by Baker appropriating the scanty water supply to his own use. Nothing serious. however. occurred un- til the party returned to the Thomas mining camp on the Hardy river. where Baker announced his intention of re- turning to Yuma alone, leaving the other boys to rustic for themselves. This brought severe, and no doubt just. criticism from Mr. Gerth. who objected to being treated in such manner, as Baker had promised to pay the men S2 per day and board on the entire trip. A few angry words were exchanged when Baker raised a 44-caliber Marlin rifle which he held in his hand and fired al Mir. Gerth, the bullet taking effect as above stated.
 After the shooting Baker commanded Mir Bichoff to accompany him, and i'm incdiatelY crossed to the Sonora side of the river With the assistance of the men at the Thomas mine MT. Me Queen secured d team and wagon at the Jenkins ranch and brought the wounded man to Yuma, arriving here last Saturday afternoon. Dr. Alp John extracted the bullet. which had passed almost entirely through the body. and the patient is now rapidly recovering.
 Nothing Was heard from Baker and BlchoH until Sunday morning when q Mexican rancher who resides in Sonora made inquiry for them at Hotel Can colto, stating that Baker had employed him to bring them 10 Yuma. for which he agreed to pay the sum of thirty dol lars. The party arrived in Yuma about o'clock Sunday morning and Baker told his benefactOr to call at the hotel q few hours later when he would be paid for his trouble. The Mexican kept his part of the contract, but Baker and Bichof could not be found. and their postoftice address will proba bly remain 9 mystery some time

A FORTY STAMP MILL
Leviathan Gold Mining Go. Negotia-
 ting Its Purchase.

pr. D. NJ. Purman, who is now devot ing all his time to the affairs of the Leviathan Gold Mining company. re- turned from the property near Con gress a day or two ago and will leave for San Francisco in a few days From there he will go to New York on the company's business and be absent perhaps for three months. During his absence, A G. Hulett. the secretary of the company. will have charge of the affairs in the local office.
 Dr. Purnan's business in San Fran cisco will be to see what can be done in the way of purchasing machinery, his investigations to be further pur- sued in the east, for the company has not only decided to erect a 40-stamp mill, but to erect it as quickly as possi- bIe. January 1st is the time limit they have set to have the mill ill operation, but they hope to beat their own prom ises in that matter Negotiations are now under way for the purchase of machinery.
 Affairs at the mine, the doctor says are running along smoothly. there is ample money in the treasury for deVel- OPment purposes for a long time to come and every man is employed who can be worked to advantage. There is an excellent wagon road from Congress Junction to the property with the OK ception of about a mile, and force of men will be put to work there at once to place the road in proper condition for the moving of heavy machinery. The mill will cost approximately S40,G00 and will be erected on the Columbia claim now being developed and about a quarter oi a mile from the camp and spring, good road between these two points having recently been built. It is proposed now to use oil for fuel CT at least to start the plant with oil.
 At the mine, the incline shaft TO feet deep to the ledge is completed, the track is down and the ore is being hoisted in cars with a horse whim. As previously mentioned a drift from the foot of the incline has been run some distance ahead on the ledge and cross cut for distance of 90 feet, no walls yet being found. The drift is now be- ing extended and the work from now on will be largely iii the nature of blocking out ore bodies for the mill. In the Vinze considerable depth has been gained and the deeper the ledge is prospected the greater the sulphide characteristics of the orc are found tc obtain. The work is now all in good solid milling ore.
 In the matter of values Dr. Purman said yesterday that the lowest assay ore body returned $ASO. In this test

EVERY WALK IN LIFE
Phoenix Citizens Appreciate The
 Little Conqueror."

Every class of citizens has sick kid neys. The busy business man rushing through life on the run fails to realize the constant strain he daily puts upon the kidneys. The mechanic forced to assume unnatural positions, stopping and straining at his work, does not know that his backache is simply kid rey ache. The clerk on his feet con tinually, leaning over a counter or desk; railrOaders, conductors, engin- eers, street-car men subject to constant jarring. all have backache from the kidneys. Women at their household duties. boys and girls at play overtaX the kidneys and give them more work than they can do. 'Tis fortunate thing the kidneys warn you when in trouble; that they cry out for help. Don't neglect the warning. Don't neglect a bad back.

GRAND VIEW M. & M. co.
Progress of Work on the Copper
 Mountain Property.

Harry Simington has returned from Missouri. where he has organized the Grand View Mining and Milling com pany. which will operate a group of five quartz claims in Cherry Creek dis trict. The claims can only be classe'l as promising prospects. There is six inch ore vein along the surface, the lowest assay from which gives $211 gold per ton. MT. Simington left here for Missouri on the 14th of March and has perfected all arrangements to push work on the group. He was buying mining supplies yesterday to ship to his camp.
 Hon. l. T. Stoddard came in yester- day from Stoddard. where he has been for the past week looking after his mining interests in the Copper Noun tain neighborhood. The tunnel which he has been driving for some years is now in 1000 feet. This tunnel was started to tap three ore bodies on the northwest side of Copper mountain. The first of these three ore bodies has just been encountered, showing up a face of good ore; the second chute is in live ground. In both chutes two shifts of men are steadily at work. Natur- ally Secretary Stoddard feels some what elated over the utlook.-Prescott Courier.
