news of the loss of another-the last
little girl of our City Marshal j. F.
Roberts. She was at one time thought
to be recovering, but the dread dis
ease, scarlet fever, took her as 1t did
the two loved ones before. This
leaves but one out of bright family

Hughie, who have been seriously ill |
with the same disease are reported to
be improving. Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts |
have the heartfelt sympathy of the en-
tire community in their great trouble. |

Two hundred and six of the Ameri-
can residents of chihuahua have sign |
ed petition to the secretary of state,
asking that United States Consul W. |
W. Mills of that place be removed for |
neglect of duty and other causes. |
Consul Mills is a brother of Brig. |
Gen. Arson Mills, retired, and has
held his post five years. At the re-
cent Inauguration ceremony of Gov. |
Terazas, the American colony proposed |
to attend in body with Consul Mills
at its head. Mills failed to attend |
and bitter controversy afterwards
resulted. The consul preferred |
charges of criminal libel against the
American editor of the chihuahua
Enterprise and otherwise brought the
situation to climax.

There is not one man in ten that the
newspaper man could not print some
thing that he does not want the world
to know The idea is to be thankful
for what the newspaper man knows
and does not tell.-Ex.

ten up long editorial on the subject |

tore up the editorial and sat down
with disgust to muse over the sorry |
scheme of things.

who tried to commit suicide by shoot

day apparently in as good shape as
ever. He complained of slight sore
ness about the mouth but there was
not enough of it to prevent him from
smoking his inevitable pipe. He sail
he had happy time while he was in
Jail. He asked the sheriff's officers
for his gun but they told him he had
better wait awhile until it was sure
that he had fully recovered from his
suicidal mania.-RepublIcan.
Governor A. o. Brodie has issued
