AWFUL SHOTGUN WOUND
Sholder of Boy Torn Away by Double
Discharge.

Daniel Maddox the ten-year-old
son of J. L. Maddox. who lives about
ten miles west of Phoenix, was acct
dentally shot in the right shoulder.
yesterday afternoon with the dis
charge from both barrels of a sixtenn-
gauge shotgun. Impossible at it might
seem, the boy is still alive, though not
fully recovered from the shock, and
there is at least a strong hope that
his life may be saved.
The accident occurred about 4:3O
O'Clock in the afternoon. The boy, with
a brother and a man, We're some dis
lance from the home place, and had
stopped their wagon for a luncheon
The shotgun was left in the wagon
taken apart, being in three pieces
The three had been eating in the shade
nearby, when Daniel got up and went
to the wagon. No particular attention
was paid TO him until the shot was
heard and the boy screamed, and was
seen climbing down from the wagon
with his clothes on fire. Strangely
enough, though he was standing on
the spokes of a wagon wheel, he was
not even knocked over. nor was he
rendered unconscious, either at the
time or subsequently during the dress
ing Of the wound.
His companions were hor.i flied at
the sight that met their gaze, and one
of them quickly extinguished his burn
ing clothing, badly burning his own
hand in doing so. A place was prepar-
ed for him to lie down, and as soon as
possible he was taken home and Dr.
Cameron was sent for. Asked how it
happened, the boy said he could not
tell anything about it, for he did not
know. In any event, he was too weak
TO talk, as he had lost great deal
OF blood and was still suffering from
the shock. Is is supposed, though,
that he put the gun together and then
accidentally dropped it, hitting the
hammers on the wagon box. This is
suggested by the fact that they are
discOlored by paint, evidently scraped
off the wagon box. The doctor found
that the point Of the right shoulder
had been carried away, together with |
q piece of the humerus about two
inches long, the wound being about !
three inches in diameter. \ temporO- |
~ dressing was given the wound, the |
boy not being able at the time to with |
stand any permanent operation. It will |
be necessary in the event that he re
covers sufficiently from the shock to |
either ampUtate the arm or at least |
reset it.

MIDNIGHT RECEPTION
The Latest Function in Which the
Congressman Participated.

One of the best indications of the en-
thusiasm of the visiting congressman
over Arizona, her resources and her
future, was the fact that though tired
AID worn they were willing at any
and all times to go wherever they
might be likely to add to their fund of
information. After the reception and
speechmaking at the Hotel Adams Fri
day night they devoted an hour or so
in touring the streets, viewing the city
by lamptght and visiting such enter
prises as were open at that hour. one
of which was The Republican office
Though the stay of the visitors lasted
but a few minutes, the call was ap-
preciated and some among them plead
cd guilty to having al some time in
their lives been more or less connect
cd with the newspaper business.
After leaving The Republican Office
the party was escorted to the board of
trade room where the gentlemen paid
their respects to the prize pumpkins
and big fruit exhibits of the board to-
gether with the mineral display and
al the hundreds of things to be seen
there as unimpeachable testimony of
the richness of this territory and par
ticularly this valley.
Though they were unable to visit the
Roosevelt reservoir project, they were
shown the model of the dam and the
many maps on the surrounding walls
that explain the details of the enter
prise. During their stay, too. Their in
formation on the storage subject was
very greatly added to by conversation
with Engineer L. c. Hill, who came
down from Roosevelt expressly to be
at their service and who ACCOMPANIED
them north yesterday morning. They
were all greatly interested with what
they saw at the board of trade room
Notwithstanding it was late. there
had been no special display prepared
and most of the choice exhibits were
away in the dark places waiting the
call of the tern torial fair. It WAS not
expected the guests would have time to
visit the board, hence no preparations
had been made, but they were willing
to go even at that late hour, and were
glad afterward that they had done so.
1t is proper at this time to say that
the board of trade is entitled to a
great deal of credit for the manner in
which the visitors were entertained,
particularly in view of the fact that
there was some change in the plans at
late hour. President F'ulwiIer made
the board business his business for the
time being and devoted his attention
TO it. as did Secretary Van der Veer,
who was busy shaping the essentials

There's Dick Buehler, one of the
best leading men in America, hand
some, magnetic, just the actor for such
parts as D'ATtnegan. Monte Christie
and the like. Why, they were all crazy
over him in Los Angeles last summer
/ saw him play various parts and
can conscientously say 4 better act
or for romantic roles I have never
seen in my twenty years experience
in the theatrical line. There is also big
gOOd-natUred Theodore Marsden. who
is to play Ursus the Giant, in Quo
Vadis. He is Ursus in real life, he's
so large. I saw him play the part of
George Washington once, and l never
forgot it, it was so dignified and i'm
pressive. Marsden in parts that fit his
physical size is without 4 peer. He's
an actor OF wide experience, as well
as being a good business manager
He's a happy combination OF the COM
merCial and artistic, with the latter
/ trait z. dominating. Then there's my
friend Tom Powell. one of the best
known men on broadway. His reputa-
ton in heavy work is uneXcelled. I can
see 4 mental picture of Tom now play
ing PetrOnius, the elegant arbiter
He'll play that part to perfection for
he's a Chesterfield in real life and a
hale fellow we'll met. He's been con-
nected with some of the best compa-
MES il the country. There's Harry
Earle, another finished young actor
who has made quite a record for him
self since his advent on the boards
some twelve years ago"
How about the ladies of the com
pany, M. Murphy" asked the mana
ger
I'd rather not discuss them replied
Murphy. You know, Frank, an Irish
man loses his gravity when a lady be-
comes the center Of attraction"
That's not fair" replied Stechau.
THE feminine part of a company is
always interes ting"
That's just it, they're too interest
ing. There's Miss Brenda Fowler, a
bowitchinS brunette type of beauty,
whose eyes would charm the heart out
Of any poo devil if he wasn't on his
guard In addition to beauty, she has
brains and genius. What I mean by
that is that she has the temperament
to feel the parts she plays and the
finished art to reveal their meanings.
Then there is Miss Florence Stan
ley, a splendid actress. 1 saw her in
/ the original production of QUO Vadis"
in New York a few years ago. AS the
. empress. Poppa, she was simply great.
/ Miss Stanley has had lots of stage
+ experience. I've seen her work with
/ Mary Mannering and with some of the
Chas. Frohmaa companies.
In fact. al these people are east
ern players. who wee specially en-
3 gagged for the summer season in Los
! Angeles"
I'm glad, Murphy. that you like
! the coming company so we'll said Mr..
Stcchan.
THE PEOPLE of Phoenix viii Ike

EzUELAN DISPUTE.

Caracas. Venezuela, Oct. 25.-The

Russell. to endeavor to arrange the
Franco-Venezuelan diplomatic incident.
Mr.. Russell will have an interview
with President Castro on the subject
Immediately. -...., ...
The diplomatic incident which Minis
ter Russell will endeavor to settle
arose from the protest lodged Sept. 10

racas station of the French Cable COM
pany and the expulsion from Vene2:-
ella of the manager OF the company, NJ.

Washington, Oct. 24.-Pending the
result of Mr.. Russell's interview with
President Castro the state department
be understood, however, that he will
confine his efforts to possible assist.
ance in the solution of the Taigny Incl
dent, involving President Castro's al
legged discourteous treatment of the
French minister at Caracas. The
Washington government feels that
President Castro made mistake in
this matter. AS soon as it became
known that this was the paramount
grievance of France against Venezuela
and the primary cause of the dispatch
of the French squadron the hope was
revived here that France might yet
find way for the settlement Of her
trouble with Venezuela without resort
to force.

DESTRUCTIVE STORM
WORST GALE IN YEARS SWEEPS
OVER LAKES HURON, ERIE
AND MICHIGAN.

Cleveland, Oct 21.-From the best
information obtainable twenty one lives
and forty-two ships were lost on the
Great Lakes as a result Of the terrific
gale which ragged for thirty-six hours.
These are the minimum figures and
will in all probability be increased by
later reports. Telegraph wires are
down in many sections and 1t is be.
lieved that when full reports are re-
ceived the number of lives and vessels
lost will show the storm to have been
the most disastrous in the history of
the inland seas.
Fear is felt for the safety of the
steamer Siberia, owned by the Gil
christ Transportation company of this
city. She was last seen near Long
point and vas then flying signals Of
distress. % tidings have been re.
ceived from the vessel at the Office of
the company here.
