kitchen knives. the fracas having oc-
scurred in Mitchell s fiat. MCGEE, who
lived on the western frontier forty
years, declares Mitchell attacked hin,
first and, practicing an old trick, he
felled his opponent, not, however, until
ne received severe scalp wound.
Mitchell did not appear badly off at
the time, but he died twentv-four hours
later. McGee was arrested meantime
in newspaper office, where he had
gone to set the editor right regarding
the story of the fight.
:. In telling Of his service in the army
MCGEE declared he was detached by
Custer just before the massacre, to car
ny message to Major Reno, who was
to have made joint attack with Gus
.ter's troops on the Indians. MCGEE
bears the scars of many wounds, which
he claims to have received before he

ready been made for completing the

cations and probably this will be done.

the Eoftefepeated question:: 'What in
the world actuated the two officials of
the Oberlin bank in making the i'm
mense loans from the banks funds
The story of how Mrs. Chadwick
played with the two bankers after hav-
ing them once in her power, as told by
Beckwith, is absorbing in the intensity
OF its interest. Mrs. Chadwick Gained
the fears of her victims with, the claim
that she was relative Of Andrew Car

around, matters were said to be in such

estate to remain in the same hands for
some little time longer.

the Oberlin bankers believed, they were

story of how the Oberlin bank had been
used as clearing house for Mrs. Chad

One instance is that Of the $4,000 note
held by w: L.. Fay and Henry Wurst of
Elyria. The note was given by Mrs
Chadwick to Fay and Wurst, with dia-

Another letter received from the same

"Three weeks ago I wrote to tell you
how satisfactory we found Peruna. We
recommend it highly for colds, coughs,
catarrh and neuralgia.
Il have used it myself as a tonic with
the best results, taken as directed, half a
teaspoonful every half hour"
A remedy that would act Immediately
upon the congested mucous membrane,
restoring it to it's normal state, would
consequently cure all these diseases.
Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in SO many homes is that it
contains no narcotics of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. It can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing drug habit. Peruna does not produce
temporary results. It is permanent in
it's effect.
. It has no bad effect upon the system.
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrI. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used off and on for twenty years.
Such a thing could not be possible if
Peruna contained any drugs of mar
cotic nature. ~

United States Marshal McCord re- turned yesterday morning frCm the northern part of the territory where te has been engaged in serving wr.t of injunction upon the striking mach IT, iSts of the Santa Fe. There were fifty defendants named nthe indictment and most of them were found at Will jams and Seligman. The injunction was isued by Judge Sloan at Prescott last Saturday.
 That was the day also when the dc- fendants obeyed the strike order. The writ only restraints the defendants from interfering in any way with the bus.- ness of the company. The application for it was a precautionary measure. The terms of the order were prec sely the same as those writs which have been issued by the courts of Scn Ber- nardino, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Kansas City and Topeka, and other points on the Atchison system within the last week.
 The marshal found the strikers quiet and without any sentiment against the company. The business of the com pany was going along as usual and there seemed to be no outward mani festat1on that a strike was in pro- greSs,

BAZAN NOT GUILTY
Proved That He Came Honestly by
 His Stolen Property.

Joaquin B1zan, charged with steal ing five horses of Francisco Perez about two years ago, made good showing before Justice Robertson yes terday and was discharged from GUS tody
 Bazan proved that at the time of she theft of the horses or soon after, he was engaged in the conduct of Q stage line between Palomas, Yuma county and a point Cn the Colorado river. He bought eight horses from Nat Bush. who runs store at Palo- mas, or did at that time. It is the opinion of those familiar with the case that these eight horses were the five stolen from Perez and three oth- CTS that were stolen from a Mexican named Zuniga, who lived in the same section and whose horses were taken about the same time. The supposition is that Bush got them of other parties to whom they had been transferred since they were stolen.
 Perez, however, had six witnesses to
