SHOOTING AT { AGUA PRIETA

Douglas, Ariz., Jan. 2, tSpeciaD
 There was a shooting affair. in Agua Prieta Saturday night between Manuel Fineres and Francisco Trefo
 Manuel was target and Francisco did the shooting. Francisco was on lark, it seems. and only wanted some one to try his new gun on. He met Manuel and with a remark in Spanish which might have been trans lated into English as, You'll do." he unlocked a bundle of lead in his di- rection. One shot took effect in the side just above the hip, but not so centrally as to pass through the body. The wound was not necessarily fatal, and the wounded man is expected to recover.
 Francisco, as soon as he found hls gun was in good condition, came over into the United States to reside, with. out waiting for comments or making any. He may make Douglas his home At last accounts he had not been ar rested.

CARRIzO DISTRICT
 MAKES GOOD REPORT
MINING NEWS ENCOURAGING SEVERAL PRODUCING PROP -
 ERTIES AND OTHERS.

W. B. Ramsdell is lately in from Aliso camp in the Nogal de Carrizo mining district in Sonora Mir Rams dell is operating La Antigua mine near the Tabatacha. and is now shipping ore to the Copper Queen smelteI in Douglas.
 There are at present four companies shipping ore, some to Douglas and some to Fl Paso. Ore is being de livered at Calahazas station on the Nacozari road.
 The Tabatachi mine, owned by Fife & Vickroy. is shipping lead and cop per ore, running high in silver values, to Fl Paso at a good profit.
 The La Antigua people are shipping copper ores carrying good silver val ues to the Copper Queen.
 The San Ignacio mine owned by the Bartelino Brothers is shipping a lead-copper ore carrying about 125 ounces of silver to the ton to Fl Paso.
 In addition to these regular produc- CTS, the Harrington mine, owned by NJ. D. Harrington and associates, has struck good body of lead copper ore carrying high silver values, and with in thirty days will begin the shipment of ore.
 In addition to the foregoing there are other mines in the district which will become shippers as soon as titles are received. ,,........
 There is every probability that with in the next year this new camp will have ten or twelve steady producers Everything in the district is improv- ing with depth and indicates that 1t is a well mineralized section. This will make Calibazos quite an impor- tant shipping point on the Nacozari road.

TO WORK WEST INDIA
 NEGROES ON THE CANAL

Washington, Jan. 2.-The Panama canal will be built by the labor of West Indian negroes, chiefly because man Shonts has abandoned the pro posed employment of foreign labor CTS and will make no contract for the delivery on the isthmus of large numbers of Chinese, Japanese and Italian workmen, as was contemplated several weeks ago. It has been found that enough strong, husky West In dian negroes voluntarily drift into Panama in search of work to provide all laborers required on the canal.
 The steamship companies that ply among the islands 10 the south of us have relieved the canal commission from a great deal of worry and bother. One of the biggest problems that faced the commission was the question of securing laborers to dig the ditch. It was made the subject of several essays by the learned experts em- ployed by Admiral Walker. under the old regime, and was thoroughly dis cussed by MT. Shonts and his advisers when they took hold of the canal man. the question to hire Americans for this heavy work, although it was | thought that some Of the hardy ne. i groeS of the south might be able to survive the ordeal of working all day in the trenches of the tropics.
 1 After mature deliberation it was decided to try the experiment of Asi, atic and European labor. Correspon- dence was entered into with the pas sepger agents of certain foreign steamship companies whose business it is to transport large numbers of laborers. These men guaranteed to furnish any number of workingmen of several nationalities. If their price were paid they could, they said, de- Ever on the isthmus as many as 10000 Chinese cooles, or the same number of Japanese or Italians. The commits l sion considered the matter at some | length and decided to hire 7500 for eigners. taking 25O0 each Of the na- | tionalitieS recommended. All the de- tails for advertising for bids for the ! delivery of the workingmen at Pan ana were arranged. The men were to be ready for work on December l, the government agreeing to take | charge of them upon their arrival at the isthmus and provide quarters, fuel, fresh water and medical atten- dance. The contract was to be award ed to the company offering to furnish the men at the nose reasonable rates per day.
 | At about this time news of the in- tention of the commission to contract for the delivery of foreign laborers like so many tons of coal, leaked out, President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor made a hurried visit to Oyster Bay. The placing of the advertisements for bids was post poned- Now it is learned that the
 project has been dropped altogether.
Bisbee daily review., 1906-01-03
Negroes Answer Requirements.

The explanation offered for the abandonment of the scheme to hire Chinese, Japanese and Italians is that all the labor needed is coming into the isthmus without encouragement from the government. The steamship companies that operate among the West Indies have been spreading the news broadcast that the United States wants thousands of laborers to dig the canal Mass meetings have been held in certain islands and the announcements made that good wages can be earned in Panama. The negroes have been fiocking to the isthmus at the rate of 500 to 500 month, and .bus far have answered all the re- quirements of the situation. They are paid at the rate of 75 cents a day, gold, which is considerably less han European laborers will work for.

 REGULATES JAILOR

Douglas, Ariz.. Jan. 2, (SpeciaD The city council met in regular ses- sion at the city hall last night. Pres ent: Mayor Overlook. Aldermen Dun lap. Stacy and Haas.
 The reading of the minutes of last meeting was dispensed with.
 After routine call of committees it was learned by petition that a colored man named Lott wished his license transferred to party to whom he would sell his business in the city The ruling was that such transfer would be made when bill of sale was exhibited, showing actuaiity of sale.
 The regular monthly bills for sal aries of city officers, street work, etc, were presented and referred to the auditing committee.
 The question of the feeding of the city prisoners was then brought up. Jailer Hayhurst (vice Shropshire, re- signed), was present and was given charge of the city prisoners to act as office deputy to .he city court. etc. His salary was fixed at so per month, the same as his predecessors. The mayor was instructed to make such a contract as he deemed best with Jailer Hayhurst for the feeding of the city prisoners. It was the sense of the council that written contract be entered into and that it be under. stood that payment was to be made only for meals actually furnished. The question of dispensing with the special officer for Ragtown was then brought up, but it was decided that affairs over there were as well as might be and no action was taken.
 The provision for more ciPhers fol street numbering was brought up anC it was ordered that more be secured as provided for.
 It was moved and carried that th' certified check of Paddock Brother deposited with the council with thei successful bid for the construction c the city hall, be returned to them a soon as their bond for the completion of said work should be made and al proved. It was urged that this bon should be promptly approved by tn council in & called meeting, so tha work might begin as soon as poss ble.

 It was brought out that no nor street work was to be undertaken D the street commissioner without O. ders direct from the street and ale committee.

TERRIBLE ScALY ECZEMA.
Face and Neck Were All Broken
Out-Cured by Cuticura.

81 had an eruption appear on my
chest and body and extend upwards
and downwards, so that my neck and
face were all broken out; also my
arms and the lower limbs as far as
the knees. I at first thought it was
prickly heat. But soon scales or
crusts formed where the breaking out
was. Instead of going to physician I
purchased a complete treatment of the
Cuticura Remedies, in which 1 had
great faith, and all was satisfactory.
A year or two later the eruption ap-
peared again, only little lower; but
before it had time to spread I pro-
cured another supply of the Cuticura
Remedies, and continued their use I'M
til the cure was complete. It is now
five years since the last attack, and
have not seen any signs of return.
I have more faith in Cuticura Rene
dies for skin diseases than anything
I know of. Emma E. Wilson, Lis
comb, Iowa, Oct. 1, 1905"
