The animals had stood there from the time the man was shot, but when the officer stepped into the blackboard they took fright and ran way. It was with difficulty that they were controlled and stopped.
 The following day some of the track hands on the Torres k Prie- tas railway, who had been to La Colorado to make some purchases and wore returning home to Torres, were stopped just outside of town and robbed of everything they had, being permitted to go with their drawers only.
 The same day the teams of the United States Graphite camp at Lo Lapi1, about thirty miles south west from Torres, were waylaid by Yaquis, the men stripped of their clothing, and some boxes of mer- chandise broached and footed of such of their contents as pleased the Indians.
 Tuesday two men were killed near Represo, the terminus of the Torres & Prietas railway, and their remains were taken into La Colo rada by train on Wednesday morn ing.
 It is also reported that a depre- dation was committed the same day beyond Zubiate, about twelve miles north from La Colorado, but at this writing "Wednesday even- ing) no details had been received at the latter place.

More Yaqul Trouble.

The Yaqui troubles in Sonora continued unabated and their de- predictions seem daily growing more widespread and serious. Hardly a day passes without re- ports of murder or plunder at some point or another.
 Last Saturday the driver of the mail conveyance for the Tarasca Mining Company, was killed but few miles from Torres station, to- ward which place he was travelling with the mail. But few mo- ments before he had passed some wood teams which were hauling wood into the station. The men driving heard the shots fired and saw the Yaquis at distance leaving the road after doing the shooting. They deserted their teams and made their way to Torres by Q short cut through the chaparal, reporting there what had hap pened. The comisario went out to the place designated and found the mules standing in their tracks, the man seated in the vehicle dead.

She Sent for Mark.

A good story is told at the ex- pense of Mark Lulley.
 One day last week one of the children in family who are very friendly with the Lulley's accid- entally swallowed a five dollar gold piece. Frightened with what had happened the child commenced to raise disturbance, and quickly made known his troubles. A medico was called, and that gen. tleman made application Of several remedies, but without avail. Fin ally, losing his patience, the doctor exclaimed:
 We shall have to send for Mark Lulley. l never yet saw anyone he could not get money out of
 Hearing this small girl, q sis ter of the sufferer, went straight way to Marks house and rapped at the door. The genial sheeny himself answered the summons. As soon IS he appeared the breath less little miss blurted out:
 "Ohl MT. Lulley. Please come oyer to our house right away. The doctor wants you. Willie has swallowed five dollar gold piece and the doctor cannot get 1t out of him; but he says that If there is anyone who can get money out of a man it is Mark Lulley, and he wants you to come"

PICKED Up BUNCH.
Four chinsmen SmuggIe Their Queues
 Across the Mexican Border.

Henry Gonzalez, interpreter at the United States immigration bureau at Nogales, made an inter- esting capture Saturday morning, while going to Tucson. As q re- suit of his watchfulness four China men are now on their way to their native land.
 The train was Jagged between Elgin and Patagonia and the China men climbed on. That the bunch should climb on at such an out-of- the-way place at such an early hour seemed suspicious to Mr. Gonzalez and he accosted the trav- elers, asking to be shown the chock chees. As he suspected, none of the chinks could show a certificate granting him the right to be on American soil and all were placed under arrest and taken to Tucson. United States Commissioner Gull yer of Tucson, before whom they were brought for examination, ordered them deported.
