cavation for the new building, has lust
been placed east of the present building.

Mr.. Ostner in 1867-8, while he was RIM

an even more prominent location on the
grounds The statute is thing of
great beauty and artistic merit.

A RUNAWAY EPIDEMIC
A Breaking Loose of Things About
 Roosevelt Yesterday.

A telephone message was received from The Republicans Roosevelt cor
 respondent last night. giving the par ticulars of a series Of runaway acci- dents that occurred yesterday after noon between and 4 o'clock. The re- suit of the entire matinee was one broken leg and another badly sprained, for Frank Nash, driver of the Holdren stage, horse so badly crippled he will probably die, half dozen more horses and mules skinned up and stage and a gravel wagon lying keel up in the tramway that runs down the hillside.
 The stage was just coming into town from Mesa with Nash pulling the rib bons over four horses, and two pass engers riding with him. He started down the grade, below the cement mill
 into the basin, followed by a gravel wagon drawn by four mules. As the gravel team crossed the bridge over the Power canal, in which workmen were engaged. a shovelful of dirt was thrown up frightening the mules which ran away. Seeing the avel team bearing down upon him the stage driv- CT wheeled out to one side but did not get quite far enough and one of his Wheelers was knocked down, where upon the stage horses began to run dragging the fallen animal. A short

distance ahead was another bridge over the tramway. The stage ran into bank beside it and the vehicle and team was overturned in the tramway, one horse being pinioned under the stage and three others being under the bridge. The gravel outfit went into the tramway on the other side of the bridge.
 The gravel wagon was strengthened rouund and the two leaders who were safe in the road, Were hitched to t in the places of the wheelers and the wagon continued toward the commits saVy. Then the rope that held the pull ley to the brake bar came off and they ran away again going past the com missary and stopping themselves by running the wagon tongue into the brick wall of an adjoining building. In this act one of the mules suffered a broken nose.
 The driver and one Of the passengers jumped from the stage, neither pass enger being injured beyond a shaking up. But the driver, MT. Nash, had as mentioned above, one leg broken and the other very badly sprained. T. was admitted however, that he did the best he could under the circumstances and no blame attaches to him.
 Another wagon and driver were SC - cured to do service as a stage outfit, and it is expected the mail and pass engers will leave Roosevelt on time this morning.

Unlikely That Mine Assessment Cases Will be Disposed of at This Meeting
 of the Supreme Court
Jurisdiction of Territorial Board of Equalization Brought up Yesterday on Demurrer to Copper Queen Aplica- ton for Writ of Certiorari.

II is altogether unlikely that the matter of the raise Of the assessments of the patented mines of the territory will be disposed of at the present meeting of the supreme court, which was convened yesterday morning. The application for a writ of certiorari, in the case of the Copper Queen Consol- ted Mining company is under consid- eration and the argument on it is only half finished. AS the court will only remain in session today and as there are opinions to be handed down in cases heard at the previous meeting Of the court, there will be no time left for the hearing of the mandamus suits filed by the territory against the boards of supervisors of the counties of Graham, Santa Cruz, Mohave and Yavapai.
 On account of the delayed train from the south, the court was not con vened until after II o'clock. Associ- ate Justice Nave took the oath of of flee and was seated, and the next pro ceeding was the admission of Judge Nave's predecessor. Judge Eugene A Tucker to practice. This was a se-
 
 said they believed was without paral- Tel in the courts of this country.
 The first proceeding of the day was a motion permitting the recall of the remttitur in the case of Griswold vs. the United States, for correction. The motion was allowed In this matter the appellant, who had been the post master at Nogales, had been the victim of a robbery by a conspiracy between a Mexican boy who is now in the Colo rado reform school and a Mexican who is now in the penitentiary. A pack age of money was stolen from the post office in the absence of the postmas- ter and his clerks and the government began suit against the postmaster on his bond. Judgment was rendered against him and the judgment was af- firmed. There was an error in the

I ask no deposit-no reference-no se- curity. There Is nothing to risk-nothing to pay, either now or later. Any stomach
 sufferer who does not know my remedy
 may have a full dollars worth free, if he merely writes and asks
 l willingly make this liberal offer be-
 cause Dr. Shoops Restorative is not an
 ordinary stomach remedy. It does not,
 indeed, treat the stomach itself. it goes
 beyond-it treats the nerves that control
 and operate the stomach. The nerves
 thas wear out and break down, and
 CAUSE stomach trouble. For stomach
 trouble is really only a symptom that
 there is serious nerve trouble inside.
 That is why ordinary remedies fall That
 ia why my remedy succeeds That is why
 l can afford to make this offer.
 Yet do not misunderstanu me when l
 any nerves" I do not mean the nerves
 you ordinarily think about. I mean the
 automatic stomach nerves over which
 your mind has no control. l have not
 the space here to explain to you how
 the nerves control the stomach. or how
 they may be vitalized and restored. When you write I will send you book which will make these points clear. But this much Is certain-ailing nerves
 cause all forms of stomach trouble

 The St. Louis Globe-Democrat says;
 Chairman Yoakum of the Frisco exec utive board, returned here yesterday after an extended trip through Texas and Colorado looking over the lines of the Colorado and Southern and other lines MT. Yoakum has recently become interested in the Colorado and Southern. Concerning the extensions Mr. Yoaltum was somewhat reticent as to what would be done in Colorado He stated, how ever that the interests of the line would be duly protected in that direction and necessary extensions would be made. As to new lines and extensions in Texas Mir Yoalxum said that nothing definite had been determined upon, and probably would not be for some time. While he would not be quoted the general impress sion Is that until the present legislative questions affecting railways in Texas are settled, MT Yoakum does not feel justified In going on with further work of construction in tha. state, moreover, he has expressed the opinion that 1t would be impossible to finance new en- terprises or obtain money for railroad | extensions in Texas until legislative mat ters are all disposed of.
 Mir. Yoakum said, however, that the | gulf coast line, in which he is interested with associates, will be completed under the contracts awarded. He believes that | nothing will be done by the present legislature in Texas that would have the | effect of retarding development or that state, in which he takes great pride and is personally interested.

Yoakum left last evening for Chi cago en route for New York. where they will attend meeting of the Frisco board At that meeting the selection of successor to Mir. K. R.
