Objected to Assessment.

1t was known yesterday that the COM
pany was in trouble. but it was an
nOunced and believed that the matter
of its heavy losses in San Francisco
could be arranged by an assessment
against the stockholders
It was decided that this assessment
should be $500 a share and as the stock
holders are all wealthy it was believed
that the trouble was at an end. Today,
however. some of the stockholders OBJ
jeCted to the assessment and it was
decided to place the company in the
hands of a receiver.
The company has an aggregat e
amount Of outstanding policies of $780,
600, 600 and the court was Informed that
it's present unpaid losses exceed the to-
tai assets by more than $500, 000
The officers of the company are: z.
J. Lefens. president: s A. RothermeI
secretary, and s T. Collins, assistant

YUMA PRISONERS ESCAPE.

Thursday afternoon three prisoners in the county jail at Yuma dug their way through an adobe wall and made good their escape. All of them were held on charges of violation of the federal statutes and were awaiting trial. Two of the escaped were later captured while the third has so far evaded the officers although his ap- prehension is expected at any time It is known he has crossed the line into California.
 The manner of their escape was by means of a hole in the adobe wall on the right of the prison. A place i'm mediately under a window had been softened by water from within and a hole large enough for the entrance of a mans body forced through which the three prisoners escaped. The bal ance of the prisoners made no attempt to follow, and it was several minutes before the escape was detected, as the men made their exit through hole in the outer wall.

 JAIL
Three Jail Birds Fly the Coop at Douglas and Manner of
 Escape Is Mystery,

DOUGLAS, Aug: 2S.-(Special)-I
 Ia a mahheF which has completely baffled the officers thus far, three in. mates of the county jail on Seventh Street Saturday night effected their escape, and before their absence was known, made their way across the in ternationai line. Nothing has been heard of any of the trio.
 The fugitives consist of w. P. Me Chung, a negro, Felix Huasica and Refugis Villareal. McClung had been committed on the charge of stealing hat Huasica had been gwen a sen tence of thirty-five days for carrying pistol and Villareal fifty days foT using profane and abusive language The Mexicans had served but a few | days of their time.
 | They made their escape some time Saturday night or Sunday morning be tween the hours of D. m. and ? a m. Deputy Sheriff HayhursI, who has charge of the county prisoners, was | in benson at the time on official busi ness and knew nothing of the incident until his return. When the deliver! was detected, it was found that therC was no visible evidence of the man ner in which the men escaped. ThC inside lock was missing but the out side lock was secure and locked. l gave no evidence of having been tam pered with The theory Of the of ficers is that the prisoners receiveC assistance from the outside in thu form of a key which served to unloci the doors

LOCAL POLICE LOOKING FOR
 HORSE THIEF
Horse Stolen From Pact , ', Ridden to Bi"l ,.o,dre and x-. ..,Uee-MexiCan
 suspected Theft,

yvho+ seems to be a bold case CA b;gbvav robbery took place on S,un. | day afternoon at Harry Hesselg leen's | ranch on the San Pedro rlNe., about twenty miles from Bisbee. As re- suit the local police officG.rs have been locking for a Mexican, Who is riding a horse belonging to nesselgree0.
 On Sunday aftelnoen Hesseigrcen had some business to attend to which would take him aboat five miles from his ranch, lie saddled a favOrite horse and rode to keep his appoint ment. Having finished his business, he returned to his own ranch, but as he expected to go out again, did not unsaddle his horse. but simply tied the bridle on the pommel of the sad dle, and turned the animal into ten acre pasture which surrounds his house. All parts of the pasture are plainly visible from the house, and Hesselgreen did not for a minute suspect that anyone would attempt to take hls horse away.
 He remained in the house about an hour. and then went out to get his horse and ride about five miles to a Eeighhoring ranch. He looked into the pasture and when he did not see the horse he came to the conclusion thaT the animal must have broken the barbed-wire fence some place and St-ayed away.
 He immediately saddled another horse and took the road towards Bis bee He inquired of several people whom he met if they saw a stray horse. and was told by three or four peUple that they had seen a Mexican riding a horse answering the descrip, ton in the direction of Bisbee.
 Hesselgreen then remembered that he also had seen a Mexican pass his house while he was sitting at supper but that was the last he saw of him He examined the tracks in the road and finally picked up the trail of the missing horse
 MT. Hesselgreen followed it to the divide in Upper Tombstone Canyon and lost il. He came to Bisbee and notified Officer Frank Johnson. whC 'saddled his horse and secured the sur rounding country without success Early yesterday morning a fuca transformer said that he had seen 2 Mexican riding the horse in the dIrec ton of Lowell. The officers agair took up the hunt, but up to late hou s 5zs<S~s--Asd' not found the mfssfns E-T is the theory that the Mexican whom Hesselgreeen saw took the horse from the pasture and rode into Bisbee.

Bfg Demand for PORK

The demand for pork this year has
aStOnished even the most sanguine
friends Of the hog. Both fresh and
cured meats have been taken in large
volume right along at prices which
We're SO high that they were expected
to check consumption. There are three
reasons why this condition has existed
and still exists. First is the prosper
ity of the South, a large consumer of
cured meats. The Southern trade was
never larger than it is to-day. Next
is the growing foreign trade, which
like our own, seems to proceed regard
less of prices. And, finally, the people
Of this country have learned to eat
bacon. Its consumption is unprece-
dented in our history, and is still grow
ing. There has been no shortage in
numbers of hogs, but vastly increased
demand. This is why prophecies based
on hog supplies have failed and are
likely TO- fail III the future.-National
Stockman.

Destroying Weeds

There are two ways of completely
destroying weeds. One is to let them
nave the opportunity to grow, and. by
frequently cultivating them, turn them
under as fast as they make their ap-
pearance; the other being to crowd
them out by growing some crop that
Will not give the weeds a chance to
grow. No system of cultivation will
Kill all the weeds if a crop is desired
such as corn-for the grass and
weeds will only be kept down so long
as cultivation lasts, especially as corn
IS usually laid by" at a time when
the weeds are producing seeds. thus es-
tablishing themselves for the succeed
ing year. As a test of what supposed
clean culture of corn may be, simply
cut down a row of stalks and a row
of weeds will remain. As a single weed
produces thousands of seed. the labor
of destroying the weeds must be re-
peated next season.
