ant fighting of those troops is very graft
lying. They retired from the field at last
with their organization preserved, the
only body of troops that did so.
Pettigrew's troops, Scales and Archer's
reached and entered the projecting angle,
while further to the right Arnlstead,
kemper and Pickett's men did the same
ccnterlng there, being according to one
account at one place sixteen files deep.
They were assailed by a Federal force
Swinging upon them from the right, and
taking them on the flank and rear.
The Federal artillery covering the hills
on our extreme left got in its murderous
work-the serried columns Of the Federal
divisions massed under the ridge moved
forward-the Confederate line was broken,
taken III the flank and rear-many were
captured, but as the SURVIVORS drew off
no pursuit was made.
We are not solicitous about the history
of Gettysburg. 1t may be that for con-
venlence sake that grand movement
across the plain may still be called Pick

An Attempt to Hold Up Guard

j. W. Martin, superintendent of the
work on the Poland tunnel, came in
from Poland last night and gives the
following account of the trouble at
that place Monday night, mention of
which was made exclusively in the
Journal Miner last evening.
He said the company had put on
two shifts of ten men each in the tun-
mel on the Lynx creek side Monday
morning. When the strikers in that
section heard of the men going to
work they went to the place and tried
to intimidate the men into not going
tc work and made quite number of
threats of one kind and another, but
the men continued at their work and
paid no attention to the strikers. The
company decided that they had better
guard their property against the pos
sible acts of some hot headed parties
and so two men were placed on guard,
one on each side of the creek, and they
passed off without further incident
until about 10 o'clock that night
while one of the guards was eating
lunch and the other was walking up
and down the road, two men passed
him and said Good evening"" They
passed on and disappeared behind
pile of wood and the guard paid no
more attention to them. In a little
while he leisurely walked down near
the pile of wood and leaned up
against it with his gun across his arm.
1t seems that his movements were be-
ing watched by the two men and they
noiselessly slipped around the pile of
wood and thrust six shooter in his
face at the same time telling him to
give up his gun. He grabbed the pis-
toll and told them he would not give
up his gun. At this the other man
attempted to take the gun from him
when he called for help. The other
guard heard the call and rushed to his
aid When he saw the situation he
dropped his gun down on the two men
when they called to him not to fire
as they would go away. The guard
who had been attacked also advised
his companion not to harm them, and
they got out of that locality about as
fast as it was possible for their feet to
take them.
They were we'll known to the guards
and Mr.. Martin came in to Prescott
to see if there was any legal way to
handle the case with the result that
warrants we're sworn out for the arrest
of the two offenders.

Jerome Junction Visited By Thun-
der Storm and Ash Fork
Inundated.

The northern part of Yavapai coun-
ty certainly had a good drenching
yesterday. The storm extended from
Jerome Junction to the north past
Ash Fork. Unlike most previous
July storms there was very little of
the electric storm it being a quiet,
steady down pour. At Jerome juno
ton, however, there was little cleo
trio variation. Just as the north
bound passenger train pulled into
that station bolt of lightning struck
a telegraph post about a trains
length behind the train fairly raising
the passengers off their seats. A team
which was standing hitched to post
at the rear of Alex Duff's store broke
loose and started across the country
scattering wagon and harness as they
went.
From parties who came down from
Ash Fork last night it was learned
that the storm at Ash Fork lasted
nearly all day, and the town was
nearly washed away. The culvert
under the railroad which drained the
food waters off from the streets be-
came stopped up and the water filled
up until it was about two feet deep
on the streets, flooding the easements
of the stores and damaging several
thousand dollars worth of goods. G.
E. O'Neil's basement and saloon were
flooded he being compelled to cut a
hole in the floor to get out the barrels
and boxes of liquors that were floating
on top of the water. Two barrels of
wine and nearly full barrel of fine
whisky were destroyed causing loss
of several hundred dollars.
The streets of the town reminded
one of the Mississippi food districts.
Boys and men were floating up and
down on sections of the side walk
pushing their way along with long
poles, while empty kegs, boxes,
boards, ETC., were floating about pro-
miscLously. The sidewalk from the
depot to the postoffice had been an
chored at each end so people could
cross a la pontoon bridge, this being
about the only place where it was
possible for people to get around.
The rain was great help to the
range all over the northern part of the
county.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.

When the stomach is overloaded /;
when food is taken into it that fails
to digest, it decays and infiames the
mucous membrane, exposing the
nerves, and causes the glands to secrete
mucin, instead of the natural juices
of digestion. This is called catarrh
of the stomach. For years suffered
