IN A MINE

\ special telegram to the Phoenix
Republican gives the following ac-
count of a fatal accident near Wicken-
berg: There was an accidental explo-
sion in the White mine, fourteen
miles northeast of Weekend burg at 10 20
O'Clock this morning, resulting in the
instant killing of Irving S. Barnes.

ing in the drift with him and only
about twenty feet away. Justice OF
the Peace Gilbert, acting coroner, viii
hold an inquest and Mr.. Barnes VIII
be buried here tomorrow, the body
having been brought to Wickenburg.
At this time there seems to be 10
clear and reliable expIana ion of how
the accident occurred. Barnes was
drilling in the face of the drift and it
is supposed in a hole that had missed
fire. though most of the powder was
burned out of it and he thought it
was clear. The explosion tore off one
arm, broke his neck and bruised his
face considerably.

A Saloon Was Burglarized.

Sometime between 10 o'clock and
midnight on Tuesday night the Mint
saloon on Cortez street near the depot
was burglarized and 81 taken from the
till.
James Wright, the bar keeper came
up town about 10 o'clock, returning
to the saloon at midnight and finding
the place in disorder, the above
amount of money in dimes and nick
els missing from the cash register, the
balance of the cash being taken cut by
him.
In order to get into the saloon three
doors were pried open with an ak
Entrance was first made in this way
through a side door leading to a card
room on the south side of the build
ing in the rear of the saloon.
To get out of this room 1t was neces-
sary to pry another door which was
fastened with hook on the outside
of it. This hook was Strengthened out
by the pressure.
This door led the burglars into a
hall leading from the saloon to the
rear Of the building and one more
door was still between them and the
saloon where they expected to make a
rich haul. The ak was again brought
into use and The door forced and once
inside they found only the above
amount of change
The burglars had evidently watched
their opportunity as Mr. Wright sleeps

Mr.. Murphy's introduction to Ari-
IONA was in connection with the build
ing of the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoe-
nix railroad in which he was one of
the heaviest stockholders. Soon after
that, foreseeing the future of the val
ley he invested in agricultural lands

than 700 acres near Mesa is one of the
model farms of the valley After that
Mr.. Murphy became one of the lead
ing memb ers of the Development

Tombstone and various other places
in and out of the territory for the de
veIopment of mineral and other re-

Designs on Pinal.

There is a movement on foot in the
legislature to split Pinal county into
three parts, dividing it between Mari
copa. Pima and ella counties. Pinal
is a small county and many legisla-
tors believe it would be economical tc
abolish the full set of officers now re-
quired to administer its affairs.
Under the proposed division, all OF
Pinal county south of the first merid-
ian south of ella and Salt river base
line and meridian will be attached to
Pima county. This line passes about
twelve or fifteen miles south OF Flor
enee, and the territory south of it in
cludes Casa Grande, Mammoth and
Oracle, towns which are tributary to
Tucson. All of the territory in Pinal
east of line ten miles east of Flor
ence would be in Marieopa county.
giving that county Florence. a town
tributary to the county seat. The re
mainder of the county, including
some valuable mineral districts would

The representatives from Pima, Ma
ricopa and ella are all said to be in
favor of the division. but naturally
those from PinaI are fighting it.-Tuc-

Those who have watched Josiah

observe that he looks for a long time
at the patient, probably to ascertain
the stage of the disease. Then he goes

From the time that the straw is pro

Woods has operated on over one thou

WOMAN AS SHE SEEMS TO THE
HOTEL MANS WIFE.

eff you have tears, shed them out of
pity for a hotel managers wife who
lives in the hotel that her husband
manages" drearily said the wife of the
manager of an apartment hotel to her
party of luncheon guests the other day.
THE women living in the hotel carry
all their grievances to her and take it
out on her. My private apartment has
become sort of general kickers' bu-
reau.
| "A while ago the f1ltering plant at the
hotel my husband manages got out of
order, and the water looked a bit roily
and muddy. Well, it seemed as if
every blessed woman in the hotel to
whom / had been casually introduced
rushed in my rooms to hold me person,
ally accountable.
Why 1 wouldn't even battle my
dog in such looking water! half a
dozen of them told me, with the sourest
ina ginable faces-as if it concerned me
in the least what kind of water they
used to battle their dogs
81 told them that my faucets gushed
roily water too, but that 1 myself had
to battle in it or go unbathed until the
filtering apparatus was repaired. That

didn't want to be rude. and I couldn't
come out plainly and tell them that the
state of the water was a circumstance
over which exercised no control what
ever. and that the breakdown of the
filtering plant was matter with which
1 had absolutely nothing to do; and so
I just had to sit and listen to their
walls and do the best I could to COM
fort them.
THE fish at dinner one day wasn't
exactly up to the mark. Five of the
women guests, with whom I was upon
mere nodding terms, hustled straight
to my rooms after dinner.
Where did the house get such dread
full fish? they asked me breathlessly,
impaling me with reproachful gazes.
II told them that the fish had heen
purchased by the steward. pro pa ply.
But he shouldn't have purchased
bad fish,, they all shrieked at ne.
There ought to be somebody to see
that such fish doesn't get on the ia
ble, I couldn't tell them that had
absolutely nothing to do with the
management of the hotel: that I had
never set foot in the kitchen. IF I
had told them that they would ave
gone off among themselves and called
me 'snippy' and stuck-up.' Women in

that the hotel manag gers wife has any

right or license to live in the hotel as
a guest. They take it that she ought
naturally to do something for her board
| they expect her to do is to stand for all
of their walls and means over the
grievous and awful mismanagement of
the house.
II was at dinner in the hotel dining
room the other evening when one of
the new tabby guests, a woman whom
I had only met once, left her table and
came over to mine.
DO you know she asked me. most
! resentfully, that the girl hasn't put
any towels in my room yet today. and
| here it is o'clock in the evening? I
wish you would bring some towels up
to my room or have somebody bring
them and then she Haunted back to
her own table, giving me no oppor-
tunity to tell her-as I surely should
have told her-that any time she found
me running around a hotel corridor
with a pile of towels on my arm dis
tributing them, that time would be
contemporaneous with the fall of two
feet of purple snow in mid August.
And the worst of it is that every
time L tell my husband how all the
women in the house hold me person
ally responsible for everything that
goes wrong in the house, he only grins
and then Fuckers up his lips and plain
lively whistles the first few bars of
that familiar air. Somebody Has Got
to Be the Patsy. =

This is why she takes to the Boston

''She must improve it by learning to
be more graceful of body. That is the
only way.
Here are the causes of lack of
grace:
indigestion, which makes the stom-
ach uncomfortable and compels a

and makes the body stoop.
Tight shoes and tight collars. which
make the head ache and the lips white.

development than at making the body
graceful.

PRECEDENT ROOSEVELT.

There are many loyal Americans
that have lon gthought that President
Roosevelt was the greatest man In the
United States. There are many people
In other lands that are agreeing with
these loyal Americans today. While
the rulers Of Europe declared that no
representations on the subject of
peace could go from them to the en-
perors Of the warning nations. the
brilliant mind of this nations chief
conceived that the time had come
when such representations could be
successfully made by him.
No. It wasn't international etiquette
and there vas nj precedent for such
an action, and In these very facts may
be read the story OF Roosevelt's
greatness. He saw his opportunity
and didn't hesitate to trample mean.
ingless conventionality and nice dis
tinctions Of etiquette. And what a
gain. The principles for which Rus
STA and Japan have fought have been
decided. Further warfare would mean
the sacrifice Of thousands Of lives, the
expenditure of enormous sums Of
money and untold suffering. Roose-
welt has been called the Man of Des-
tiny. II ever Providence seemed to
guide the pathway of a man to great
ness II has done so In the case of
Roosevelt. Yet who shall say that the
secret Of the presidents greatness
Is not found In that genius which he
has Of seeing the opportunity and

doubtful II there Is another country
In the world that would have made
such favorable terms OF peace under
similar circumstances as Japan has
made to Russia. Twice during the
last century Russia exacted a heavy
indemnity from Turkey when the lat
ter nation was not beaten as badly as
Russia Is today. Germany extorted
from France a tremendously large In
demnity and insisted on two wealthy
and fruitful provinces as we'll. But
Japan having won every battle Of the
war, after having reduced her enemy
to the last extremity, and after hav-
Ing secured the acknowledgment OF
every principle for which she fought,
grants to the vanquished the most
liberal terms ever given to a defeated
nation.
1t Is a new standard that Japan has
set to the Christian and most highly
civilized nations OF the world. Japan
10 proving herself great from every
standpoint and as she has taught new
lessons In warfare to the world, SO Is
she teaching new lessons In diplo
macy and new and noble doctrines Of
large unselfishness and generosity.
It may indeed prove true that this
new giant or the orient may outstrip
far. many Of tn colder civilizations oi
the world, but unless every promise
fails Japan's triumphs are to be gain
ed through the exercise Of keen in
telligence and liberal ideas and thu
practice Of higher methods Of govern
ment and life than the world has vel
produced. Even America has many
things to learn from the islands across
the western seas which have readily
learned the lessons Of good which this
country had to teach.
