Graphically Potrays Horror and Anguish of Blsbee Lad
 in Earthquake
EXPRESSES THANKS
 TO BISBEE FRIENDS.
Describes Leap in Darkness From Height of Three Sto- ries = Lay in Street for Hours Helpless.

Perhaps as sraphio a description of 'ne hoEEor and anguish suffered by the i wounded and suffering who went
 through the Frisco earthquake as has
 been related was contained in letter
 received in this city yesterday by Har-
 ry Aiken from his old friend Bob Kyle, the former Bisbee miner who
 was so terribly injured in leaping
 through space from the third story of
 the Winchester Hotel, where he was
 sotpping at the time.
 Kyle will be remembered by many
 of the boys of the camp as a miner
 who made Bisbee his home for sever
 al years. He had been in San Fran cisco but one short week when the
 city was visited by the disaster which
 has startled the world. It was the in tention of Kyle to return to Bisbee before this time had it not been for
 the accident which befell him.
 Kyle describes his feeling of horror
 most graphically from the time when
 he awoke in the shaking room to hear glass breaking and walls and cs,..,,i,ne falling about him until b.. was taken to the Naval Hospital for treatment.
 Upon realizing .ne possible fate that Woulo pc heted out to him should he enisL L in his prison room, Kyle strug- sled with a door jammed tight with the warping of the room into a dia-
 mond shaped box. Freeing himself from the cage in which he awakened, desperation upon him, he rushed blindly through utter darkness and choking dust to where he knew the stairway to be, only to plunge blind ly through space left by the destruc- tion of the stairs. He even goes into the details of his away experience so 1 far as to describe how he struck pro truding obstacles three different times
 in his flight into that awful pit. Freeing himself from debris where l he fell, the injured man forgot his
 hurts in his desperation, and with the assistance which then came to him he reached the street where he lay in pain while waiting for an ambulance. For an hour he lay there watching the buildings about him crumble and fall, 1 expecting momertarily to be crushed to death. But it was not to be.
 His recovery from numerous bruises | and cuts under the care of naval hos pital surgeons at Yerba Buena Island, ! where he was taken with others, has been remarkable, and the injured man talks of his plans to accept employ. ment as soon as he can dispose of his
 crutches.
 Kyle is eloquent in his protestatIons of gratitude toward Bisbee friends
 who proffered him unlimited assist.
 ance in his need.

hO ANNEXATION Say Lowell Property Owners to BiSbee Chamber of
 Commerce. SUBURBANITES TAKE
 EMPHATIC STAND.
Say They Are Satisfied With Present Conditions Would Prefer Annexation to Single Incorporation.

Lowell was yesterday the scene of spirited conference between mem bers of the Bisbee Chamber of Com merce and a delegation of res.denta and property owners of tne suburban district at waIcn the Chamber of Com merce Committee sought to gain the consent of the Lowell contingent to annexation to Bisbee The proposal of Bisbee was met with flat refusal on the part of the suburbanites, backed with their reasons as to why they do not at this time care for local govern ment whether as separate communi- ty or tied to Bisbee.
 It was the unanimous opinion of those Lowellites present that Lowell does not at this time care for change
 Among those present to express the sentiment Of Lowell on the question of anneXtation were John NJ. Johnson, James B. Brophy, Thomas Tate, Frank Schmidt, Judge Hogan, Attorney Sauer, John McGregor, Stewart Grant, Emil Marks, Harry Brown. Obe Schimp, J. c. Dreeben, Billy King and Harry Jennings.
 To a Review reporter, James E. Brophy had the following to say in re- ply to the question as to what woul be done Qn the part of Lowell prop, erty owners:
 We do not want interpolation in any form, Why should We want it? Are We not pFespe. .rous enough Why add the burden of more taxation We are not fead- for incorporation We are not lscge enough as a com munlty as yer. Let the matter go oyer IoF couple of years, and then if cohuiuW-s warrant it, let incorpora- tlon Come in the shape of annexation TO P>isbee. I think that I express the se ntiment of a large majority, if no the whole of the property owners il | Lowell, when I say thes things. It has never been shown that the req property owners ever desired incorpor ation. If they did, it seems to me that the wisest move would be to come | suits to be obtained from incorpora tion ir the shortest possible time. don't believe you will see Lowell gov ernment changed, not for the present at least"
 It was impossible to reach but ont member of the Bisbee committee last evening, and he did not care to ex | press himself as to what the intention of the committee is as to further pro cedure. I#
 It seems to be the plan of-the Cham

Consuela Vanderbilt is having
trouble with her Duke. This
only adds one more to the list OF
unfortunate American heiresses
who have married dissolute liber-
tine mobiles of Europe. But then
we have troubles of our own,
some of Baxter's most charming
widows have been led astray by
love at first sight or ION sight
and on seeing" and married men
for their good looks, or old cranks
for their pension, and found too
late that men betray. There
should be a law requiring giddy
people of sixty or over to have
an acquaintance with one another
for at least ten days, and then
they should have right to cam
eel the contract at any time
within three months. This would
save many divorce suits and lots
of money paid to lawyers. The
old people of Baxter are too low
ing anyhow.

The Chicago papers say Broth
er Parham has finally developed
''Pentecost" in Zion City. He
told them it would come, and one
day last week over thirty of the
Zionites began to talk in strange
and unknown tongues. They,
nor any one else knew what they
were jabbering about but they
got there just the same. Voliva
is furious, but old Dowie is hap
py in egging Parham on, and the
chances are ten to one in favor of
Parham. If Parham would be
contented to stop at Pentecost or
Apostolic faith all would be we'll
with him but he has secured the
services of some female spiritual
istic mediums who see things"
and direct his ministrations.
Two of these mediums are said
to be very good lockers and entic-
ing, to say the least, and Parham
may be called on to explain. A
cold blooded apostle like Parham
may Withstand many tempta-
tions, but when it comes to a
warm, handsome, voluptuous fe-
male who secs things"-he had
better look a little out. Baxter
has never before had a prophet
of her own and we would be glad
to see Parham succeed in chasing
the devil out of Zion City, and
obtain complete control of the
souls as well as the enormous
wealth of the city. He would
undoubtedly divert everything to
the glory of God and the Saints
and establish himself as a true
prophet, even as solomon of old.
but without quite so many fe-
males.

dictate which they represented.
Some complaints are made by
buyers as to extravagant prices
asked for prospects, said one
mining man.: 81 have seen many
a good camp killed by ridiculous
prices asked for prospects. My
advice is for these people to kill
snakes while snakes are around
and build up their camp. 1t is
essentially rich mans camp.
What you need here is big devel-
opments and big mills. 1t will
take corporation money rather
than small individual money.
But you no doubt have what will
make one of the rich mining
camps of the country with devel-
opments and big mills"
The hotels are crowded and
the camp was never in better
shape to show people what it is
really worth. Results are count
ing. The croaker who predicted
one year ago Birds will nest in
the mills of the Baxter camp be-
fore the year goes by" is not very
much in evidence these days. He
has seen the old mills 60 on
operating as much as the small
development of the mine would
warrant and new mills built on
new mines opened up.
The strikes made at the Mer-
rift, Irish Maid, Diamond c.,
Virginia, Kramer-Morse, Hobo,
Indiana, White Eagle, Good
Luck, Strong Bow and several
others the past month would
make any mining camp in the
west grow into a big boom al
most by leaps and bounds.

A HOT MEETING.
Citizens Of Baxter Springs
Must Move Lively or
Mine Operators VIII.

The Baxter Mining Exchange
had a small but enthusiastic meet
ing Tuesday evening. Commit
tees were appointed to interview
the several railroads with a view
of getting them into the camp.
These committees are expected to
report at the next meeting their
progress. The committee on
roads and transportation request
ed another week to report a plan
of operation for the betterment
of the roads between this city
and the mines.
There was one business man OF
Baxter, Mr.. Haskell and men,
bers of the press in attendance at
the meeting. This brought up
the much mOoted question among
the mine operators as to what
particular reason they should be
organizing mining exchanges to
advertise the mining camp as
Baxter Springs as to why they
should drive six miles over out
rageously bad roads and all to
the profit of merchants, property
owners and business men in Bax-
ter Springs, and all they do is to
sit back and when approached to
join the exchange, reply: Il
don't know, I'll see when | know
more about it."
The universal opinion of those
present was to either have better
roads and that, too, at an early
date and a more lively interest
taken in the mining exchange,
which is being pushed to adver-
tise the mining camp and thereby
advertise the city or get up and
move to the mines. One man
stated he knew of a capita list
who would build the necessary
buildings at the camp to accom-
modate the mine operators and
of modern style and with mod
ern conveniences and furnish
blocks to locate business men in.
One man said: Let us organize
a mixers club among the mine
operators if the business men
don't get busy and all hike to
the camp. am tired asking any
more business men to join the
exchange-its up to them to come
to the next meeting or will vote
to join any movement to chang
ing our location.

To THE News:
We will say for the benefit of
our many friends in Baxter that
at present We are stopping here.
In some ways we are feeling bet
ter, but the doctor says we can't
stand it here. Our hearts are fall
ing. We can't breathe enough OF
this light air. This is beautiful
mountain city. We are located
where we can see the mouth OF
the Royal Gorge. 1t is a beauti-
full scene. There are worlds OF
apples but very high. Plenty of
work and good wages, but other
things so very high it makes it a
very poor place for a poor man.
We find no place that will beat
our old home. Baxter Springs is
the best place for a man to get a
home. We will spend the winter
in the West.
