 NJ D. Scribner returned this after noon from a three weeks visit to Cal ifornia.
 W. C. Read. the well known mana. ger ofthe Cochise Lumber company at Naco. spent Sunday in Tombstone returning home this morning
 Sheriff Dell Lewis is sill in the field after the jail escapes. If determina. tion and courage counts for aught the big sheriff will yet land some of the prisoners.
 There are now two patients in the county hospital who have been injured by premature explosions in blasting out the rock on the right of way for the Tombstone-Fairbank road. Both are doing well and will soon be out and be able to resume work again.
 The camp mascot among the grad CTS on the Tombstone railroad is q Papago Indian weighing 29S pounds The swarthy son of the copper col ored race is an adept with the shears and occasionally introduces the pom padour cut on the locks ofthe graders who are willing to undergo the op- eration. Papago Jim is one of the biggest Indians of the tribe in this section.
 The Prospector is informed that some thirty cars of ties are at Cochise on the Southern Pacific and it is un- derstood work will shortly begin on the connecting line of the S. P with the Cananea road The proposed road extends from Cochise to Pearce and Gleeson, down the valley to Bis bee and a point between Naco and Douglas where connection will be made with he Cananea road Branch lines will be run to Tombstone and Douglas. while the Cananea end will be extended to the Mexican coast. The length of the road and branches from Cochise to the Cananea connec- tion will be 112 miles, all comparative ly easy railroad building. From all appearances Tombstone, Bisbee and Douglas will be on the route of two railroads within a short time.

WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.
She Does Not Require a Large Kit Of
.4 Tools to Aid Her, Either.

A recent writer, who is unquestion-
ably a man, though of an unusually OBJ
serving turn, pays compliment to the
weaker sex, though he doubtless does
not intend it when he says:
"A man never thinks of a toothbrush
as anything but a toothbrush, but a
woman knows it's endless capabilities.
Il a window frame rattles at night she
wedges it with a toothbrush. If she is
suddenly required to stir dose Of
medicine in glass and a spoon is not
at hand, she promptly uses the tooth-
brush handle. She has even been
known to use it to loosen the mold in a
flower pot, and in extreme cases she
can drive in tiny tacks with the same
useful article. N
Then there is the hairpin. The
uses to which woman can put hair
pin are always innumerable. Does a
cork find it's way to the bottom of a
vial? A 3 woman will immediately
spear it with a hairpin and extract it.
Does she wish to bore a small hole in
a piece of wood? She will heat a hair
pin and burn the hole out with neat
ness and precision. With a hairbrush,
unless it happens to have a silver back.
she feels able to drive in the largest
nail, to punish the most vigorous small
boy and to convert lump sugar into the,
finest powdered sugar.
"She can make an excellent hammer
with the heel of her boot. and can con-
vert a caseknife into an efficient screw
driver. If a. woman knew the process
of building. a boat she might be cast
ashore on an uninhabited island with.
nothing but hairpin, a toothbrush and
an ordinary sized boot, and within a
month she would turn out a seaworthy
boat in which she would escape to
tion.'-Pittsburg Dispatch.

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE


Has it ever been your unhappy lot to
be told by your physician that you
must go to hospital and submit to an
operation? If SO, you remember with
what dread and shrinking you awaited
the day when you must endure the
knife. The present day surgeon APP
pears to be possessed by mania for
operating, especially in cases of hem
orrhOids or piles, and while the greater
number of the profession do not rec
ommend this last resort unless they
honestly believe 1t necessary, the fact
remains that much needless operating
Is done, and the patient put to much
expense and suffering for what? To
obtain a possible temporary relief;
these words are used advisedly, be-
cause in nine cases out of ten the
affiiction returns and the patient is just
where he started from. Oftentimes he
could be cured much more simply and
easily by the use of such a remedy as
the Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come
to be recognized as the best remedy
on the market for the painful disease
named, and the druggists now sell
more Of it than all other pile remedies
combined, The writer personally
knows people who were afflicted with
the worst form of bleeding and pro-
truding piles and who were perma-
nently cured by the use of Pyramid
pile Cure. In every one of these cases
the attending physician had assured
the sufferer that only by an operation
could he rid himself of the disease: so
much for the infailibility OF the doc
tors. This remedy, which is sold by
all druggists at the low price of fifty
cents, is in suppository form. is ap-
piled directly to the parts affected. per-
forms it's work quietly and painlessly.
The Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall.
Mich, will mail free to any address a
HOOK telling all about piles or hem
orrhoids, their cause and cure.
A suggestion Is offered that If the
reader is afflicted or knows anyone
who is, this book be sent for. as it will
be found invaluable.

MRS. E. c. MUIR's ESTATE.
Given ms 81 in Realty and SO in
Personality.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-The petition filed
with the will of Mrs. Edna Coleman
Muir, daughter Of the late United States
Senator Mcpherson o. New Jersey, states
that she left 81 in realty and $40 in. per-
sonalty.
The Senator left an estate estimated at
s., 900, 600. Mrs. Muir was in litigation
over this estate in contest of the Will of
her mother when she died, on December
20 last.
BY the will of Mrs. Muir all her estate
is left to her husband, DR.. Joseph Muir,
Consul of the United States in Sweden.
The nearest relative is a cousin, Annie
Mcpherson Low. who lives at the Hotel
Grenoblc.
Lawyer Johns, of the firm of Shope,
Honey & Johns, when asked today how
these values came to be put on Mrs.
Muir's realty and personally, said that
while she left jewelry and other articles.
they would not be sufficient to pay her
debts. 1t is understood that the 81 in
realty refers to her interest in the litiga-
ton over the estate of her father and
mother, the value of which can be deter
mined only at the end.
1t was said by another person that her
debts are about $4,000. DR.. Muir was
seen. but he would not add to the law
yer's statement.
Mrs. Muir had been in several litiga-
tions with tradesmen.
