 In responding Dr. Mabie alluded to the Grand Canyon of the Colorado, the green fields, the fertile val leys and great herds of cattla which he had seen on his journey through our territory lie said he was glad to number himself among the adopted citizens of Arizona, that he believed rhet they are worthy of statehood and that thoir right to self government shCIl1 be recognized.

TENDERFOOT FOUND
Young Man for Whom Anxiety Was
 Felt Here and at Cave Creek.

The unknown young tendeTfoot for whose safety fears were entertained in Phoenix and at Cave Creek has been heard from, but little more is known of his identity thrn when he was first seen pulling a laden burro along this side of the Arizona canal on his way to Cave Creek.
 l. has transpired that it did not make much difference to him where he was going. He started for Cave Creek. but ot the time of starting he hlo only half formed idea that he would go there for he. asked questions about all the roads acr0ss the desert and particularly about the road to Prescott. Before he reached the Ari- Zona canal he decided that he would go to Prescott and he turned off in the direction of Black Canyon road. He proceeded along that thCroug,hfare at the rate of two kn-ts an hour and when he got we'll out on the desert the burrC's cargo shifted and finally came loose and fell to the ground. At the same time the tenderfCot was lost. He had left the Black Canyon road for a well travelled wood road. He pursued that until he found it crossed by so many others equally well travelled that he became confused and did not know which way to go. The problem be- came puzZling and when the lead fell off his burro at the same time the load fell off his mind. He had something else to think about beside roads.
 While he was struggling ineftectual- ly with the repacking a couple of MeXicans came along with a load of wood They were amazed at the ap- pearance of him. They had never seen a man on the desert before with q little dinky straw hat, patent lelther shoes and soft raiment. He knew enough of Spanish, which he had prob ably picked up in school, to make himself understood. The Mexicans as- sisted him in the relocating and Sfor a consiGeration conducted him to the Black Canyon road and gave him such plain directions that he went the rest of the way without any further wand- erirg.
 When It was learned at Cave Creek that the stranger had started for that place and had no doubt got lost, a party was sent out to look fer him. The search was not made wholly for the sake of humanity. Cave Creek has had a growing population for the last two years and there is a greet deal have been one more. When it shall be learned there that a prospective citi- zen went to Prescott instead, almost

 Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is kind of dyspepsia that is caused by derangement of the female organ ism, and which, while it causes dis turbance similar to ordinary indiges- tiou, cannot be relieved without a medicine which not only acts as a stomach tonic, but has peculiar uterine tonic effects as well.

message has been made public, they
endorse it after fashion.
