A CASE OF LEPR0SY
Imported Into Albuquerque in a Furniture Car, the Victim
 Being a Chinaman.

There is furniture car, No. ', 7,479, in the lower yards that is being summed today. It is side-tracked and alone, but it contains an occu- pant-a leprous Chinaman. The car was part of an equipment that came from the south on a freight train, arriving here about ' o'clock last night. Soon thereafter groans and moans were heard to come from this particular car, supposed to be empty, and an examination revealed a man inside. He was noticed to be in a weak, enfeebled condition, and Agent Myers was notified. Officer Cooper was also appealed to, and he, on taking a peep at the individual, concluded to consult a physician. Dr. Pearce, on behalf of the city board of health, was summoned, and after he looked at the subject, exam ming the poor devils drawn-up hands, he pronounced the man a leprous Chinaman. The doctor says the case is in its first stage, but it is nevertheless pure, genrine case of leprosy. The left foot is in a horri- ble condition, while both hands are drawn, the flesh hard and the fingers look as if they had been drawn through a threshing machine, and the flesh ready to drop of. The doc tor talked with the heathen and got from him a few English words to the effect that he got into Deming from somewhere (no doubt smuggled across the Mexican border), put into car, thence sent to Fl Paso, and from there sent up the road. reaching here last night.-Democrat.

ARIZONA ROMANCE.
A Chapter In Real Life More Sen sationaI and Romantic Than
 Any Found in Fiction.
An Ash Fork Woman Recoyers Her Child After Seperation of Four Years-Pathetie Parting From
 Foster Mother.

Pretty little Beulah Williams, with rosy cheeks and dozen buxom sum- mers, has found her mother, or, rather, her mother has found her, and yesterday, in Judge Trask's court, the girl was delivered into the custody of Mrs, Emma Snyder of Ash Fork, Ariz,
 Mother and daughter had not seen each other for almost four years. Originally Mrs. Snyder was Mrs. Williams, living with her first hus- band in Fl Paso, Texas. The family was in bad financial straits, and the wife had to do service in a dressmak- ing establishment. While thus at work Beulah ran ths streets of Fl Paso. until her mother felt con- strained to give her to the Sisters to be cared for temporarily. Then Mrs. Williams and her husband went to Arizona, leaving Beulah behind. That was over three years ago. Meantime the mother had married Snyder, car inspector for the Santa Fe at Ash Fork.
 For some reason she did not hear regularly from Beulah, and, going to the sisters in Fl Paso, she learned that the child had been given to d well-to-do woman, now named Mrs $. J. M. Bailey, who subsequently, removed to Los Angeles aud is living at No. 1415 Buena Vista street.
 For three years Mrs. Bailey has cared for the girl, to whom she gave the name Ivy Bailey, becoming very much attached to her. Her real name, Beulah, will sound like a new name.
 There was no legal fight over the girl. As soon as Mrs. Bailey, who for years had been trained nurse for the government in Texas, learned that Mrs. Snyder was Ivy's mother she relinquished the little maiden although not without many bangs ot heart, for she had grown to love the tiny ward.
 . As to Ivy she could hardly tel which woman she loved best. Tear, reddened her bright, blue eyes anC streaked with watery paths he plump, rosy cheeks. After awhile however, she was partly reconciled tC Mrs. Snyder, and went of with he and Attorney J. Marion Brooks.
 Mrs. Bailey was heart broken a she saw the girl departing, and coul( not keep back the tears while sh' begged Mir. Brooks to see that sh' ] was kept posted as to Ivy and he welfare. For long time past Iv. has been her constant companion The girl will be taken at once to Ari zona.-Los Angeles Times.

NEW GOLD DISCOVERIES.
vaIdes Nearly DepOpuiated By Reports of Rich Placer DeveI- Opments on the Nizini
 River in Alaska.

Seattle, June 24.-The discovery of new placer diggings on Nizini river, Alaska, has excited Valdes. From 20 cents to S2 to the pan, and bed rock at three feet, has caused an exodus to the new mines. Barely enough men are left in town to run the stores, while some saloons and business houses have closed.
 The news was brought to Valdes by Rowland and Van Brundt. Row land came out to record claims, and Van Brundt to secure medical treatment for one of his eyes, which he injured severely. The new strike is on the Nizini river and tributaries, branches of the Chittyna river. The Nizini is a long river, with a number of branches and gulches, and is about l50 miles from Valdes. It is one of the richest mineralized districts in Alaska.
 Rowland brought out considerable course gold, many of the nuggets being as large as beans. He is satis- fled that Nizini will prove one Of the richest districts in Alaska. Addi- tional letters received here tonight confirm the NiZini discovery.

RESERVES MAY BE PASTURED,

A case has just been decided in San Francisco which will be of inter est to parties who have sheep Oh for est reserves. Judge De Haven granted the motion in arrest of judg- ment in the case of the United States against Peter Camou following the decision of District Judge Welborn of Los Angeles in a similar case brought before him in 1900. Camou was charged with violating the regu- lation of the interior department, which prohibits the pasturing of sheep on the federal forest reserves, and provides punishment for those violating this regulation.
 In passing on the matter the court said: "There is no law in congress making 1t an otfense to pasture sheep upon forest reservations, and I fully concur in the opinion of Judge Vel, born."
 Three similar cases are now pen ding in the same court, and Assistant United States Attorney Banning said that under this ruling it would be necessary to enter nolle prosequi 1T each case. This will throw open the reserves to the sheep men unless tht forest guardians take the advice O Banning, and immediately on learn ing that sheep are herding on tn' reservations, apply for an injunction If a restraining order is hot needed the herders and owners may then b' punished for contempt of court.

KANSAS WANTS HARVEST HANDS.

Now that immense crops have been grown in Kansas, a serious condition confronts the Kansas farmers as to saving their crops. A telegram from Topeka says that for three weeks the state employment bureau has been advertising for men to help the far mers save their wheat. Two weeks ago it was announced that 5000 ex- tra barvesters were needed, and only about 600 have reported. During the past week rains have flooded the wheat belt, and harvesting gangs were compelled to discontinue labor. Now, with clear skies and promised sunshine, oyer-ripened wheat is fall ing to the ground, and farmers are begging for help and offering S2 to 8 8 day.
 Throughout the great wheat belt the ring of the reaper was heard on Sunday last. The farmer sent his wife and children to church and Sun day school, but he and tie hands went into the fields to save the wheat At the little town of Industry, in Dickinson county, the people gath cred in the church and prayed not 
 only for clear skies and sunshine dur ing the week to come, but implored the Master to send men to help ir saving the results of the farmers toi and labor. In the same county is tho large settlement of River Brethren The wives and daughters of these
 sturdy farmers went into the field, as helpers.

Stories oi Grant and Lee.

Two interesting war time stories were told lately Ky Senator Bacon ol Georgia. One of them concerned Senator Pettus of Alabama. who, as everybody knows. was gallant officer in the Confederate army.
 In one of the battles before Vicks- burg, Senator Pettus, then colonel, was captured and carried as a pris- oner before General Grant.
 Colonel" sad Grant, when the prisoner was brought before him, ''what are those troops out in front of mel"
 General" replied Pettus, II m us decline to answer that question:"
 General Grant looked him in the eye for a moment. You are right colonel" he said. Then turning to an officer near by, Grant said: Take this gentleman tO the rear and treat him kindly"
 Senator Pettus has never forgotten that interview with General Grant.
 The other story illustrates the same nobility of feeling in General Robert E, Lee, the commander of the Confederate forces.
 It was at the close of the battle of Gettysburg. As General Lee rode from the field he came ca a young Union soldier, a mere boy, lying on the grass wounded. The boy, though painfully hurt and unable to rise, had a spirit not to he guenched. As he recognized the confederate uni form he raised himself upon his elbow. "Hurrah for the Union," he cried defantIy, though with feeble voice.
 General Lee got down from hi, horse, went over to the boy and laia his hand tenderly on his heat. "i hope, my son." he said, "thtt you are not much hurt, and that voI will soon be we'll. Washington Post.

While burning of pasture land near vacaville, by order of the super visors, to kill grashoppers, the fire got beyond control, and, spreading to adjacent fields, destroyed large amount of grain on the ranches of Henry Peters and J. M. Connor. MT. Connor estimates his loss at S9,000 with S3.000 insurance. Peters loss is not so heavy. In this case the cure seems to be worse than the disease.
 Col. A. O, Brodie will be inaugur- ated governor of the territory at Phenix. next Tuesday, July 1. While there will be but little pomp connected with the ceremony of talk ing the oath of office, a public recep- tion will be rendered him by the people of Phenlx. Colonel Brodie was a resident of Prescott for several years and it would be graceful con- pliment to worthy man if delega- tion of our citizens were to visit the Capitol city and assist in welcoming him to the gubernatorial chair Whether such a delegation goes ol not, however, it is none the less fact that Colonel Brodies is held in high esteem by our people.

KINGS EVIL.

At Whitehall or some other royal resi- dence a little group of people would shrinkingly await the coming of the king, in order to be vtouched for the evii?s The specific vevil" was scrofula, and it was the popular belief that scrof- ula could be cured by the royal touch.
