You want one that is pleasant to take. Cham berlain's cough remedy meets all of these conditions. There is nothing so good for the coughs and colds incl dent to childhood. It is also cer- tain preventive and cure for crOup, and there is no danger whatever from whooping cough when it is given. It has been used in many epidemics of that disease with perfect success.

At Solomonville last Monday Judge Doan rendered 8 decision in the in- junction brought by the Phoenix and Eastern railroad against the Arizona Eastern, which restraints the latter from employing 1000 men and $50 carts for work on the north bank of the Gila river, between Kelvin and Dudleyville. This is the culmination of bitter fight over the route through Box canyon to Gila river, which both lines are claiming. As result the Arizona Eastern will be forced to withdraw, leaving the right of way clear for the P. & E., but the case will be taken to the higher court. The Arizona Eastern is building from San Carlos to Mesa, to connect the Globe, Gila Valley & Northern with the Mar icopa X Phoenix.

TRACKS NEARING THE sRADsnAws
Prescott Soon to Have Rali Connections
 with important Mlmlnl Camp.


 The track of the Bradshaw railroad has reached point less than two miles from the Grown King mine, and by the first day of may regular train service will be inaugurated, says the Prescott Herald. At the present time the bridge gang have the right of way in placing a structure across Poland creek, and when that is completed the track will be run into the town in a very few days.
 As the road hears it's goal there is shown a lively interest in that section from a commercial and mining stand point. From railroad standpoint there is no doubt that the line will be taxed to its utmost in handling not only machinery to be placed on many properties in that vicinity, but from the disposition of many people who contemplate building at the King, ,traf- fic in other branches will be very heavy also. In fact several, if not all, who contemplate permanent invest ment in one line or the other have been holding back until the line was completed, thereby saving the heavy expense incidental to pack animals and water transportation.
 In order to accommodate the heavy freight and passenger traffic incidental to that section a specially made loco- motive has been decided on, and three of these will be placed in commission. Mir. Elliott, in charge of the motive power of the s. F. x P. system, is now in the east inspecting these en- zines as they are being built, and he is expected to return soon with them.
 It will certainly be novelty for one to make the round trip in day from Prescott to the Bradshaws, while the comfort and convenience of such will be simply incomparable to the tortu- Ous methods heretofore in vogue by horseback or stage.

TIT INTERNATIONAL KEROSENE OIL [h6|h[ ,;i||||,

Is undoubtedly the simplest engine made, has fewer parts and furnishes more power from the same weight of metal than any other motor on earth. Its manifold uses, its great simplicity, it's economical maintenance and its uniform durability and reliability under all conditions demand for it the first place among the engines of the day. Will run anything from the smallest plant in existence where motive power is required to the largest factory. Its uses are co-existent with the demand for an engine-large or small-and of any horsepower or mag nitude required. It can be readily em- ployed anywhere. at all times; in all climes; in the country as we'll as in the city. Its sole motive power, as stated, is ordinary kerosene oil, readily obtain able anywhere.

came through the bushes that thought
it was a herd of cattle. And when it
came to where l could see it, each of its
legs looked as big around as my leg, and
it was as tall as small tree. And such
a beak as it had!

egg had been, and then was frightened,

held. Besides the number of special
attractions that will be offered, there
will be brought together an exhibit
of the Agricultural and Industrial re-
sources of Canada such as is rarely
attempted by any country. Visitors
will be there in large numbers from
the United States, owing to the. low
rates offered by railways, connecting
with the Canadian roads. 1t is ex-

on the opening day to declare the ex.
hibition open. A splendid opportunity
will be afforded by this exhibition to
meet friends. Hotel accommodations
