HIS NECK WAS STRETCHED.

Hoping to restore to consciousness man who had been paralyzed by q knife wound in the throat, their desire being that he might make 9 statement concerning the man who is charged with inflicting the wound, physicians resorted to an unusual expedient last night.
 In their opinion the mans condition was the result of a partial severing of the spinal cord and the formation of
 blood ciot which pressed upon the core. After consultation they decided that
 they should stretch his neck-just as might be done by hanging-the pres sure of the clot would be remoevd and the victim restored to consciousness.
 To this end they fastened weights
 to h.s chin and around his neck, letting
 them hang out of the bed, so that all
 the strain would come on the fragments
 of the neck. When the first weights
 were found to be of TO avail they were
 added to. and for eight hours the pa
 tient lay helpless. the heavy weights
 stretching out his neck to it's full ca pacity.
 Although at intervals there were in
 dications of returning consciousness.
 they were only momentary and the pa tients stupor became deeper as time passed. At the end of eight hours, dur ing which time the weights had not been removed, the man died. The patient was William F. Haskett. He quarreled in his home with his step son, Forrest Webster, last Thursday night. Mrs. Haskett was the only one
 present when the younger man, it is said, picked up bread knife and stabbed the stepfather in the back of | the neck.
 When the doctor was called Haskett was unconscious. It was feared that his wife's mother love would prompt | her to shield her son, and the police asked the physicians to do all they could to bring Haskett back to con
 sciousness, even if only long enough for him to make what might be con sidered an ante-mortem statement. As the doctors believed the point O. the knife had passed between the first
 and second vertabrae they deemed this possible. An autopsy showed the verta- brae had not been touched, nor was there any clot pressing on the spinal cord.
 The posterior fragments of the neck had been severed, which permitted the head to fall forward on the breast and produced a swelling at the back. Death, is is said, was due to paralysis-De- ! triot correspondence New York Herald.

 Superintendent Owens of the Deca- tur company's mines was in Jerome Saturday evening and had with him some fine looking ore which was taken from the face of the drift they are now driving into the hill from the working shaft. They are making depth for every foot they drive. The face of the drift is now about 325 feet below the surface. About twenty-five feet back they struck white iron in small quan- titles, but now the mineral in the rock is copper. gold and silver. and it looks better after every shot.-Jerome News. w. F. Deity has purchased a one | fourth interest in the Yaqui mine, which adjoins the Martha, owned by Mr. Talbot and his associates, says the Border Vidette. The property Is located in the Altar district and is said to be very valuable. Recently MT. Tal- bot made a test run of 100 tons of ore from the Martha which, Mir. Deity says. averaged s13.5O.
 John Muller of Groom Creek, owner | of many good mining claims in that | locality was in Prescott on business the other day. He reported to the Pres colt Herald man that his mines are all looking good and he expects to make a stake out of them in the future.

MINING NOTES.

Robert Dillon. Q mining man and former resident of this county, is a re- cent arrival from South America. where he was in charge of mining prop critics and listened to the continued jabberings of hocks of parrots.-Pres- colt Courier.
 w. H. McCord. a mining expert for a syndicate of capitalists at St. Louis. left this morning for Jerome, from which place he will go to the Etta of that property. He was here a few days ago working on this report when he received orders to 80 to New Mex ico to examine a property there. He says Yavapai as Q mining section ranks very high and deservedly so, for there are many splendid properties and hun dreds of good prospects which with capital to handle them would certainly make good mines. He is well pleased with the Etta group. so far as he has examined into them.-Journal-Mi Miner.

Certainly the government Is better able to handle it than private parties if it will only do so.

To relieve disordered menses is to remove the cause of other female troubles. Any physician will tell you that to remove the cause of a disease renders the cure easy. in fact seldom fails to complete the cure. If you would have the same relief which Miss Markell secured try Wine of Cardui. You can take it with out an examination and without any publicity whatever.

At 8 O'Clock yesterday morning an
extra train of twenty-five cars loaded
with coal and drawn by engine 752
stood at GlOrieta station, held by air,
while Conductor Frank Flumerfeldt
checked the register. Suddenly the
train started down the mountain, En-
gineer E. Hyre applied the air only
to find that it would moi work. Three
| efforts were made with the same re-
suit. The train OF course a away,
and did not stop till it reached
Twitchell, two miles below Lamy. On
the way down, the way a and the
last car of coal broke loose, the con-
ductor being in the way car.
Near Canoncito the detached coal
car was wrecked. The waycar was
stopped by means Of the brake. The
| operator at Canoncito notified Lamy
and Galisteo that a runaway train was
coming down the mountain, As 1t was
passing through the Lamy yards TWO
men rushed out and tagged the run
away quite violently. Engineer HyIe
concluded from this that he was about
to run into another train, and jumped
from his cab, bruising his shoulders
and badly scratching his face. Two
extras were coming north. The op
orator at Galisteo stopped these, and
to prevent the runaway from dashing
into them piled ties on the track For
tunately his %precaution was unneces-
sary. The only damage to the engine
was the blowing out Of a cylinder
head. Fireman T. B. Rummey I'M
dertook to replenish his fire while the
engine was flying down the hill. The
fireman stayed with the engine till 1t
came to a ~standstill, and was of course
unhurt.
