LEEDS BREAKS WITH Mo0RES
An Explanation of the Recent Break in
 Rock Island.

Chicago, Dec. L-The Record Herald tomorrow will say: William B. Leeds, whose meteorIc rise in the world of finance and railroad circles caused comment the country over only a few years ago, and who served for d time as president of the Rock Island railroad, has severed all connection with the Moore Brothers and D. G. Reid. MT. Leeds resignation as member of the executive committee of the Rock Island and as a member of the board of directors has been ten- dered and accepted. His break with the Moores was due to friction which has existed for some time and which grew to such proportions that it could no longer be kept within business bounds.
 "The seriousness of the breach is il- lustrated by the alleged fact that MT. Leeds retirement was followed a few days ago by the dumping of all of his Rock Island stock on the market. It is understood. that he refused to give the Moores an opportunity to buy his stock at the market price or a sub stantial advance. This action was the cause of the sensational break of more than seven points in the preferred stock which occurred one day last week."

CAUGHT WOLF WITH HIS HANDS.
The President Tells How Hunter
 Accomplished the Feat

The President Tells How a Hunter
 Accomplished the Feat
 In a couple of miles I was close enough to see what was going on. But one greyhound was left with Aber- nethy. The coyote was obviously tired, and Abernethy. with the aid of his perfectly trained horse, was help ing the greyhound catch it.
 Twice he headed it, and this enabled me to gain rapidly. They had reach ed small unwooded creek by the time I was within fifty yards; the lit- tie wolf tried to break back to the left Abernethy headed it and rode almost over it; and it gave a wicked snap at his foot, cutting the boot. Then he wheeled and came toward it; again it galloped back, and just as it crossed the creek the greyhound made. d rush pinned it by the hind leg and threw it.
 There was scuffie, then a yell from the greyhound as the wolf bit 1t. At the bite the hound let go and jumped back a few feet, and at the same mo- ment Abernethy, who had ridden his horse right on them as they struggled leaped off and sprang on top of the wolf. He held the reins of the horse with one hand and thrust the other with a rapidity and precision even greater than the rapidity of the wolf's snap, into the wolf's mouth, tanning his hand down crosswise between the jaws, seizing the lower jaw and bend ing it down so that the wolf could not bite him.
 He had stout glove on his hand, but this would have been of no avail whatever had he not seized the animal just as he did, that is behind the ca- mines, while his hand pressed the lips against the teeth; with his knees he kept the wolf from using its forepaws to break the hold. until it gave up struggling. When he thus leaped on and captured this coyote itw as en- tire1y free, the dog having let go of it, and he was obliged to keep hold of the reins of his horse with one hand. was not twenty yards distant at the time, and as I leaped off the horse he was sitting placidly on the live wolf, his hand between it's jaws, the grey hound standing beside him and his horse standing by as placid as he was. In a, couple of minutes Fortesque and Lambert came up, It was as remark able a feat of the kind as l have ever seen,-Mr. Roosevelt in Scribner's Ma" gaZiue.

LOVES YOUNG DREAM.

And so you are going to be mar ried?" I said.
 Yes" she responded, and her voice was low and sweet as if the ecstasy of untold dreams quivered in 1t; that is, we are going to be married as soon as we have saved enough to go to house. keeping"
 "so you are saving, are you?" queried
 "Yes"-ah, what a vibrant note of happy anticipation was in the fresh young voice!-"you know we must or we could not marry at all"
 How are you getting along with the saving?" I inquired.
 Beautifully! Just beautifully! I al- ready have saved $2.7S and my Angus tus has $14.1S; that is, if he does not buy his new suit.'

 The pirates realized quickly enough what had happened and they ran around franticaIly. But there was nothing that they could do. The red and black snakes are the most veno- nous of them all, and when morning dawned it shone on five men in their, death agony.
 I shall never forget that night. The sight of the conVulsions and then the slow agony of dying sickened me, and I tried my best to help them, even though they were murderers and pI- rates. When they were dead pushed them overheard and hastened to sail away from the spot. E

HARVEY HOUSE FOR WILLIAMS
Plans Ordered tor a New Building for sc-
 commodation of Canyon Tourists.

Ford Harvey, of Kansas City, at the head of the Harvey system, passed through Albuquerque Sunday night on his way home from a visit tu the coast. The Albuquerque Journal on Monday contained the following con corning contemplated improvements on the west end;
 While the train stopped in this city Mir Harvey was very busy man and transacted large amount of business. Heconferred with Supe"intendeuts Stein and Jacobson in regard to the pro posed new hotel at Ash Fork and also left orders with the architect for plans for new buildihg at Williams, which will be erected in the very near future.
 "The new house to be erected at Ash Fork will be built with an eye to comfort and will be one of the best appointed houses on the line of the Santa Fe We intend to make it a very pretty and handsomely furnished hotel" said Mir. Harvey to the Jour- nal man. 'Yes, we are to erect neat but small hotel at Williams soon for the accommodation of our Grand Canyon trade and the local business. It will be small house, but will be modern and it's furnishings will be up to the standard of the system"
 The new Williams hotel has just been decided oD and the plans have been ordered drawn. The cost of the proposed hotel is as yet problemati- ca but it means the expenditure of a considerable sum of money.

Mining Corporations Behind the Charges.

A dispatch from w ashington, D. C., under date of August l9th states that it has developed that the men behind the charges against Judge Tuck CT, of Arizona, are attorneys for the mining corporations and they are trying to bring about his removal for the purpose of securing the appoint ment of judge in his place who will be opposed to assessing the producing mines in Arizona as returned by the territorial board of equalization. It seems as though Judge Tucker has ex- pressed himself in Globe as being in sympathy with Governor Kibbey in trying to make the corporations bear their proportion of the territorial taxes, and his ideas on this question have raised the ire of corporation at- torneys and F. T. Edwards, one of the number, is making charges against the judge If this developes suf- fciently so that President Roosevelt can be convinced, there will be no va cancy in that Arizona judicial district. The department of justice will make a sweeping investigation of the whole matter, and probably new light will be shed on the charges that are now on file against the Nebraska gentle man.

A Wnrnlns to Mothers.

Too much care cannot he used with small children during the hot weather of the summer months to guard against bowel troubles. As a rule it is only necessary to give the child a dose of castor oil to correct any disorder of the bowels. Do not use any substi- tute, but give the old fashioned castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and has tendency to gripe. If this does not check the bowels give Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera md Diarrhoea Remedy and then dose of casto- oil, and the dis ease may be checked in it's incipiency and all danger avoided. The castor oil and this remedy should be pro- cured at once and kept ready for in- stant use as soon as the first indica- tion of any bowel trouble appears. This is the most successful treatment known and may be relied upon with implicit confidence even in cases of cholera infantum. For sale by all dealers.

cniuamen Charged with Arson.

Two Chinamen are under arrest at Prescott on the charge of arson. The boarding house at Val Verde was destroyed by fire one night last week in which both of the men under arrest had formerly been employed. They were discharged and ordered to leave the premises but on the night of the fire they were both on the ground and their actions were such as to cast sus- picion on them. The fire was of in- cendiary origin, much trash had been soaked with oil having been found under one of the stairways. In ad- dition to the action of the Chinamen one of them had but two days before purchased a can of oil at the camp store.
