BILLY STILES IS
 REPORTED KILLED
Said to Have Met End in
 Fight With MGxiCans

Pic Quinta, who owns a number oi prospects in the district south of Moe
 tezuma, arrived in Douglas yesterday witha story to the effect that Billy Stiles, the partner of the notorious Bert Alvord, had been killed while fighting with band of YsQuis against soldiers of the Mexican government
 According to Quinta, the fight took place Tuesday on the bank of the Yaqul river, at the crossing of the trail south from Moctezuma The Ind ians, in ambush, opened the attack on some 200 soldiers under General Luis Torres, and after an hour of sharp fighting, were beaten back leaving seventeen dead on the field It is claimed, says Quinta, that one of these, painted as an Indian, and who had acted as leader during the fight, was the notorious Stiles who is so much wanted on both sides of the line.
 The story is plausible, as 1t is known positively that Stiles is in that country, or was recently, and his presence there with a band of active Indians will account for much of the depreciation which has been going on in that country. It is also possible that this is an explanation of the death of s. L. Riley of Douglas, who was murdered near Tapachi recently.

CLIFTON PARENT
 ON THE WAR PATH
Visits The Public Schools
 and WdllOpS Teacher

The following account of a lively lIne which occurred a few days ago ln one of the Clifton public schools is aken from the Copper Era of that city:
 "A deplorable affair occurred in the North Clifton schools last Thursday afternoon. It seems that Professor Reese had quite severely chastised he eleven-year-old son of E. Lafave. From all accounts the boy was treated with an undue amount of severity. It is reported that he was not only whipped, but was also kicked and dragged around by the hair of his head. When Mir. Lafave went to his dinner. he heard the boys story, and Immediately went over to the school house, where he met the professor. Lafave states that he asked the pro lessor why he beat the child, and the professor replied that because he had q right to do so. Lafave then struck the professor a blow that knocked him senseless for some considerable time. His face and one eye was badly cut by pair of glasses which he had on at the time. The professor was so badly knocked out that he was not able to resume his duties for sev eral days. When the professor had sufficiently recovered as to be able to do so, he swore out a warrant for Lafave, who was fined $50, from which he may appeal. It seems that wher the professor attempted to chastise the boy the little fellow put up a fight and made things so lively that the professor evidently lost his temper, and no doubt went further than was his intent or desire. This is the pro fessor's second term as principal, and up to the present time he has been getting along very well with the pu pills"

End of Virgil Earp Who Made
 History in Tombstone

News has been received of the death of Virgil Earp, who belonged to the noted Earp gang which was d terror to the peaceable citizens oi Tombstone during the early history of that now quiet and orderly town The Earps and their associates fur. nlshed much of the early history of this territory on which Alfred Henry Lewis builded his "WolfvIle" stories
 Virgil Earp, who died this week at Goldfeld, New, where he has been since that camp first attracted atten, ton. was considered the most dan. gerous man of the Earp gang and was a dead shot with revolver or rife. He was sixty-two years old at the time of his death, which was caused by an attack of pneumonia, which killed him in two days after the dis ease attacked him.
 Earp was born in Illinois, and trav- eled to the west with his family, con sisting of father, mother and three brothers. The Barp brothers first a tracted attention at Fort Dodge, Kan. where they were parties to many shooting scrapes. but it was at Tomb stone where they achieved their greatest notoriety, and from which they were finally driven by an out ragged public Virgil Earp was at one time a United States marshal.
 After leaving Tombstone the Earps went to California and settled at San Bernardino. where they have since re sided most of the time. none of them having ever returned to the territory.
 Virgil Earp leaves a wife and three brothers-Wyatt, Morgan and New. ton, though they are located at diff ferent points in California. The father of the Earps is now an inmate of the Soldiers Home at Sawtelle, Cal Before his death Earp requested that his body be buried at Portland Or, and it was sent there.
 Several years ago Wyatt Earp at tempted to become a famous sport and was referee of the prize fight be tween Fitzsimmons and Sharkey, giY ing the fight to Sharkey on foul. This decision was considered by the great majority to be nothing less than cold-blooded robbery of the money which had been bet on FitZsimmons and since then Earp has not figured as a sport.

SOME REASONABLE ADVICE.

It may be a piece of superfluous ad vice to urge people at this season of the year to lay in a supply of Cham, berlain's Cough Remedy. It is al most sure to be needed before the winter is over, and much more prompt and satisfactory results are obtained when taken as soon as a cold is con- tracted and before 1t has become set tied in the system. which can only be done by keeping the remedy at hand. This remedy is so widely known and so altogether good that no one should hesitate about buying it in preference to any other. It is for sale by all dealers in patent medi- cines.

bia.'
That is the way Secretary Hay S
name appears in the Congressional
Directory It indicates more than any
thing else his close connection with
the people of this city and the fact
that he regarded his long residence
here as sufficient to make him a native
of Washington.
Washington has been the home OF
scores of distinguished public officials
since it became the Capital OF the
United States, but rarely have these
public men become so closely iden1ilec
with the affairs of the District thai
they were willing to claim it as their
home.

l.-Secretary of War Taft and party,
which left Washington last night en-
route to San Francisco on their Philip
pine trip, heard OF Secretary Hay $
death at Benwood Junction this morn
ing
They were grieved beyond expression.
Secretary Taft said the death OF the
disting uished diplomat and scholar was
great shock TO him.
1t is believed that the demise of hay
will without doubt stop the entire Phil
ippine trip. Taft says he will be guided
by the desires of the President.
He stated he would wire Oyster. Bay
at once The movements of the party
would depend absolutely upon the wishe:
of the President. So.
Hays death has aaddened the spirits
of Si1e entire party.

Choate Favorably Mentioned
To Head State Department

2 Hon. Joseph III. Choate, of New York,
lawyer and orator. and former Ambas-
sador to Great Britain, wiz probably be
chosen as the successor of the lamented
Mr. Hay.
Of brilliant attainments,s and trained
experience. as q diplomat. Mr., Choate
is well equipped for the difficult task.
When, last March,, after Secretary
Hay had passed the winter in delicate
health Mrs Hay went to the Presi-
dent and told him that her distinguished
husband had served the country long
enough. and it was now time for her to
claim him and try To nurse him back
to health. there were three names most
prominently considered by the Presi-
dent in connection with the State De-
partment portfolio.
They were Joseph Choate. Whitelaw
Reid, whom he had just named as am
bassador to Great Britain, and Secre-
tary of War Taft. OF the three he in
c.iped most strongly to Mr.. Choate
While Mr. Reid the brilliant editor
writer and politician, has been more
than once honored by being intrustet
with special missions abroad, he ha:
had no diplomatic experience, and II
this respect is less qualified for the i'm
portant post than Mr.. Choate.
Confidence in Taft.
In Secretary Taft's ability to conduc
the foreign affairs of the Government
the President had fun confidence, which
he showed by designating him as Actin
Secretary of State during Mr. Hay
absence. The practical proof of his ca
pacity given in the last few months ma
ressibly induce the President to tende
the premiership to the big man whe ma
been sitting on the lid through IN
early summer 80 c.,
It Is understood, however, that See
rotary Taft himself prefers to stay {;
the head of the War Department.
