the property. After a further develop
ment of the property Mr.. Beemer de-
cided that it would be better to sacri-
flee the money he had already put in
and abandon his interest.
He was probably preparing to remove
his machinery from the ground and
Pease probably sought to hold it there
under his Interpretation of the contract
between them. At any rate the Pres
colt Courier which came to this city
yeste. day contained a public notice
signed by the company per Pease set
ting forth a resolution adopted at a
meeting of the directors of the COM
pany in Chicago, July % by which
Beemer was removed from the position
of president and managing director;
w. r. Russell from the position of gem
eraI superintendent and J. B. Girard
from the position of chief engineer. The
notice warns all persons against tran
sactions with any of these deposed Of

an invalid but recovered a fair mea-
sure of health and was employed at
the street railway power house as
chief engineer. About ten days ago
he got what money was due him from
the company and telephoned his wife
that evening that he would not be
home to supper. He has not been back
since. Inquiry was instituted the next
day but nothing could be learned con-
corning him until a letter was receiv-
ed at General Superintendent Heaps
Office, written by Mccall in Tucson. AS
soon as his whereabouts was learned
by Mrs. Mccall she went to Tucson
only to learn that her husband had
spoken we'll of her at the hotel where
he was stopping, had written her a let
ter to Phoenix and had then cone to
Los Angeles.
Mrs. Mccall came back to Phoenix
and got the letter which revealed his
motive for leaving He said he was
afraid his wife was losing confidence in
him over some of his trivial faults and
would finally desert him. AS he
thought as much of her as ever and
could not bear to think of her leaving
him he had decided to act first. AS
Mrs. Mccall had no idea of leaving him
she was greatly surprised and shocked
and thought that he must surely have
magnified any criticisms she had Of
fered concerning his conduct. She
therefore decided to go to him at once
and disabuse his mind of any foolish
fancies he may have entertained.

DICK ARNOLD SHOT
An Accident, Though not Serious,
Spells His Hunting Trip.

Dick Arnold who left here a week
ago last Monday with a party con-
ssting of Jack Gibson, Dick Newton.
J. Bentley and several others for a
hunting and fishing trip in the White
mountains was accidentally shot a few
days ago. The news of the accident
was brought to the city yesterday in
a letter from DIR. Miller. who said that
he would leave with the wounded man
for Phoenix. The letter contained few
details of the affair probably by rea
son of the fact that the paper was
scarce. The letter was written on
coarse brown paper such as used in
out of the way general stores.
1t stated that the shot. probably
from revolver carried by Mr.. Arnold,
entered the calf of the right leg below
the knee, passed through the fleshy
part of the leg and came out above the
inner part of the ankle. 1t was added
that Mr.. Arnold was getting along well.
The letter was written from Payson.
The writer did not say by what route
he would bring the wounded man back
to Phoenix but it is surmised that they
will come by the way of Roosevelt
rather than by Globe and the round
about raiIwa-- journey.
1t was thought that Mr.. Arnold would
have done better in a mountain camp
along with the party than in Phoenix
following the long and rough journey
here but it is thought that Dr.. Miller
urged his return for personal reasons.
Before the party got out Of the valley
he repented of the expedition and be-
gan trying to invent excuses for Civ
ing it up. The horse back riding was
too much for him.
The accident to Mr.. Arnold furnished
a most admirable excuse.

NEW MARKET OPENED
Salt River Valley Gets Big Hay Order
From Canane0.

The Arizona Hardware and Vehicle
company last night received y letter
confirmatory of a telegraph order
from the Cananea Copper company for
thirty-five car loads of hay to be de-
being about the daily consumption of
the copper company.
This is the first big order this val
ley has received from that part of the
world for the last two years, Cananea
and points on the FL PasO and South
Western having been supplied chiefly
from the ella valley or from the Inn
perial country.
This came about BY reason of dis
elimination by the Southern Pacific in
favor of the ella Valley. Globe and
Northern railroad as to points in the
southern part of the territory and in
Mexico on lines reached by or from
the Southern Pacific.
Four or five weeks ago the vehicle
company took the matter up with the
Southern Pacific urging that this val
ley be brought into the same relation
with those growing markets of the
south that the ella and the Imperial
valleys now enjoy. The discrimination
has now been removed and it was
quite an important one amounting to
twenty EIGHT cents a ton on hay.
1t is likely now that the greater part
of the hay and other farm products
required not only at Cananea but other
points in northern Mexico and the
southern part of the territory will be
supplied by the Salt River valley.

FOOLS GULCH SALE
Will Probably be Effected Today IL
Not Already Done.

1t is probable that the Fools GuIch
mine changed hands yesterday. 1t was
expected that the deal would be con-
summated the day before and if it has
not been done it will almost certainly
be done today. The prospective pur-
chaser was H. J. Beemer who had al
ready had some mining experience in
this territory.
Tony Johns of Prescott had an OPP
ton on the mine which will expire to-
day and it is thought that his negoti-
atoms with Mr.. Beemer would come
to a conclusion about the same time.
The figures are not known but they are
supposed to be somewhere be-
tween $50 and $4,000 The pro-
perty was once in probate court and a
price of $4,000 was fixed on it but
conditions are different now. That
situation followed the deaths within
short time of each other of two presi-
dents both of whom had been the
heaviest stockholders. The stockhOld
eTs were unable to agree upon the cleo
ton of a third. The property is under
the mana cement of w. A Clark who
has had charge of it far years and who
was one of its earliest owners.
A great deal of work has been done
on the property. There is one LOO
loot smart and another sou. Ihey are
a long distance apart but they are con-
uected by several tunnels. Then there
are upraises and other extensive I'M
decground workings.
Mr.. Beemer's wealth is rated official
" at $4,000. 600. He is i New Yorker.
His first venture in Arizona mines was
i'm the property of what is now the
Amalgamated Gold Mines company of
Yuma county. The property consists
of a large area of placer ground which
was taken up by o. y. Pease. Afte-
some development of the property he
interested Mr.. Beemer in it to the ex-
tent of S125,OOO in notes. Under the
contract between them Mr.. Beemer was

EVER TREAT YOU so?
Coffee Acts the Jonah and Will Come
Up.

A clergyman who pursues his noble
calling in a country parish in Iowa,
tells Of his coffee experience.
MY wife and l used coffee regularly
for breakfast, frequently for dinner and
occasionally for suppeI-always the
very best quality-package coffee ne
vcr could find a place on our table.
IN the spring OF 1896 my wife was
taken with violent vomiting which we
had great difficulty in stopping.
IL seemed TO come from coffee drink
ing but we could not decide.
In the following July, however, she
was attacked a second time by the
vomiting. I was away from home fill
ing an appointment at the time, and
on my return l found her very low;
she had literally vomited herself al
most to death, and it took some days
to quiet the trouble and restore her
stomach.
Il had also experienced the same
trouble but not so violently, and had
relieved it, each time, by a resort to
medicine.
But my wife's second attack salts
fed me that the use of coffee was at
the bottom OF our troubles, and so we
stopped it forthwith and took on Pos
tum Food Coffee. The old symptoms
of disease disappeared and during the
years that we have been using Pos
tum instead of coffee we have never
had a recurrence of the vomiting. We
never weary of Postum, to which we
know we owe our good health. This is
a simple statement of facts" Name

Madison, August %.
Deputy Game Warden A. w Gratz
of Madison has attained the reputation
of being the warden with the settlers
nose. He discovers Illegally shipped
game by exercising his highly deyei-
oped sense of smell His latest
achievement is to discover Illegally
shipped game packed in BURBERRY
crates, the space around the birds
filed up with the fruit and with
stones as to have the precise appear
auce and weight of Grated berries.
The hunters who seek to avoid the
game laws are frequently ingenious in
the means they employ to circumvent
the game wardens. Not long ago
cases of birds were seized packed
with onions, so as TO disarm the olfac-
tory powers of the officers. The war
dens here are working on the latest
device and expect to make arrests of
the shippers of the berry-birds in a
few days.
Violations of the law during those
last few days before the opening OF
the hunting season are multiplying
and the wardens are kept busy with
the violators. Deputy c. w. Sizer of
Lincoln county reports the arrest OF
Fred Peterson for killing deer out OF
season. Deputy c. w. Johnson re-
ports the seizure of 200 feet of brani
new gill nets and the arrest of the
fishermen, whose cases are pending
Deputy val Raeth of Milwaukee re-

The siIk.Hat Forefinqer.

The nail of his right forefinger was
long, yellow. horny, and the fingertip
/ had so thickened and hardened that it
seemed to be covered with pale
leather.
| He was a silk-hat maker, and it was
from curling hat brims that his finger
had changed so strangely. Describing
the processes of a silk hats manufac-
ture. he said;
The belief that cardboard forms a
silk hats foundation is an error. The
hat is first built up of various thick
nesses of linen-layers of linen, soaked
in shellac, that, by means of wooden
mculds and hot irons weighing twenty
pounds apiece. are welded one on the
other till perfect shape, brim and all
complete, is obtained.
The silk is next put on. The silk
costs from $40 to SIS a yard. It
looks like plush in the piece. The
hatmaker cuts it on the rs, and
moulds it round the stiff linen founda-
ton. The strips must be very ac
curately cut, and great care is needed
in their ironing and cementing so as
10 give a perfect diagonal joint. Look
at your silk hats seam the next time
YOU wear it, The joints perfection
will perhaps amaze you.
THE brim, up to this point, is fiat
Now its curling commences. That is
where my queer forefnger comes in.
The shaping of hat brim is purely a
matter Of hand and eye and taste.
the brim while being shaped, Is high
ly heated. so as to give it pliability.
And, of course. working on this hot
material, patting and prodding it, the
forefinger thickens, and the nail gets
horny.
Nevertheless, hat curling is pleas
ant, artistic work Hat curriers' have
regulations, the same as artists. Their
work is distinctive. An expert can
tell it at a glance"
