company are printed on the fourth
page Of this issue. The company is
the one that is working the Granite
Gap mines. The company was organ
ICED under the laws of Arizona some
three years ago by S. Charles Pratt,
who at that time had the entire con-
fidence of the men who were inter
ested in the company. Later it was
found that he was crooked, and was
fred. The officers of the company
had trusted him to attend to the af-
fairs Of the company at the western
end, and supposed everything was all
right. In Investigating the affairs of
the company it was discovered that
he had not registered the company in
New Mexico, although the law re-
quired 1t. AS soon as this was dis
covered the corporation was properly
registered in New Mexico, according
to the territorial law. Luckily moth
ing had come up in the mean time to
trouble the company on account Of its

II. A. Lister, president of the Gold
field Fargo company, Of Nevada;
stopped in town for a few days the
first Of the week, EN- route to his Penn
sylvania home from Goldfeld, Mr.,
Lister SAYS that the ground on his
lease of the c. o. D. at Goldheld is
looking fine. In that camp the sur
face ores are oxidized, and are of COM
paratively low grade. With depth are
encountered sulphide ores, which have
been enriched by the teaching of the
ores above, and these sulphide ores
have all proven to be very rich. His
work is just reaching the zon Of Sec
ond enrichment and the high grade
ore is coming in. Just before he left
he had ore which assayed S124 per ton
in gold. From present indications he
win be taking out and shipping high
grade ore before the first of the year.
Tile company's lease on this ground
runs till the first of January, 1908,
and Mr.. Lister expects to take out an
enormous lot of high grade ore before
that time arrives.

The cattle train that was loaded
here last Saturday got into trouble
before it reached Tucson. When be-
tween Walls and Pantano, on the
crooked track, a helper engine came
up behind the cattle train. The en-
gineer on the helper did not see the
train until he was close to it, and
then could not stop his engine, and
it crashed into the caboose, in which
were the trainmen, and the men in
charge of the cattle. The trainmen
were not hurt, but the cattlemen
were all injured. +. L. Cfisswell,
who bought the cattle, was hurt
about the back, and badly bruised.
Kos Cureton, who was helping him,
was badly bruised. Crisswell and
Cureton were taken to st. Mary's
hospital, at Tucson, in an ambulance,
where they were cared for. Mr.. Con-
stable, who was not so badly hurt,
was able to go on to Phoenix with
the cattle. About 125 of the cattle
were knocked down by the shock, and
five Of them were killed. 1t took
more than an hour to get the other
cattle up. Mrs. Constable says that
this is not the first time her husband
has been in train wrecks when handl-
ing cattle, and that he has never
been seriously hurt. Messrs. Constable
and Cureton returned Wednesday,
They are not seriously hurt. In fact
Mr.. Cuteton said he had often been
hurt worse getting off a horse hurridly.
He said the railroad company took
good care of them, and settled hand
somely. Mr.. Crisswell is still in the
hospital, and is seriously hurt. 1t
will be some time before he can get
out.

IN PITIABLE CONDITION.
Is Reported That His Lower Limbs
Are Paralyzed.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April ia corre-
spondent of the Daily News cables
from Berlin that despite the reassuring
statements issued by Prof Renvers for
the benefit of the public, Prince Won
Buelow's condition is altogether sad
and discouraging. His lower limbs
are paralyzed and useless, his hair has
whitened and his frame has become
emaciated and his spirits seem to be
crushed.
Nearly all of Good Friday was spent
by the chancellor in prayer with the
former court chaplain, DR.. Stoecker,
who informed his friends that he was
very much shocked by the helpless and
reduced condition of the prince Dr.
Stoecker declares that it is out of the
question that the prince will ever be
again able to take up the government
leadership.

blood stains were compared with the
official records, and in every single
case it was found that diagnosis
whether it was of human blood or the
blood of some animal was correct.
There was a case of a man who
demanded that an annuity be paid by
the government to workman who
was no longer capable of earning his
living, stating that he was suffering
from a hemorrhage. A doctor who
was called in found him in a bed be-
fouled with blood, but could discover
no reason for the hemOrrhage.

warded to me to examine, and l was

Man May See Through Rabbit Eyes.

WASHINGTON. April 17-Partial
success has attended the efforts of the
surgeons to restore the sight to Will
ton Heinard by grating the membrane
and cornea of rabbits eyes to his.
He can now distinguish between day
light and darkness.
Mr. Heinard was operated on two
months ago. He has undergone sew
eral minor operations since. The
surgeons maintained the greatest Sc
crecy as to the result of the opera
ton. but today declared they were
satisfied with it. They claim that if
Mr. Heinard's sight continues to grow
stronger, as it has done during the past
week or ten days he will be able to
walk about without the aid of an at
tendant They do not hold out the
hope that he will ever be able to read
again.
Heinard lost his sight more than a
year ago by a negro highwayman, who
threw I've in his face. The mucuOus
membrane which surrounds and lubri-
Gates the eyes was eaten away by the
lye and the eyelids grew fast to the
eyeballs.

London Man Claims He Can linden,
tfy Human Blood.
SUBMITS PROOF OF HIS THEORIES
If 1T is TRUE MURDER MYSTE-
RIES IN FUTURE CAN BE
SOLVED.

LONDON, April 17.-If the conclu-
sions of a scientific writer in the cur
rent issue of the Monthly Review are
accepted, murder mysteries in the flu
ture will be much easier of solution.
The writer, Paul Uhlenhuth, an
nounces that he has discovered a
means of identifying dried human
blood. What this signifies will be ap-
parent when it is stated that the great
est experts in medical jurisprudence
have hitherto held it was impossible
to ascertain definitely whether or not
the dried blood was that of a human
being or any animal.
After referring to the Identification
and shape of the corpuscles, Mr.. Uh-
lenhuth goes on to say:
contains still other characteristic sub
stances, namely, albuminous materials,
and should it then transpire that these
albuminous substances are different in
various sorts of blood, and should
there be a method of proving this diff
ference, even after the blood is dried
up, the difficult problem of differentiat-
ing blood would be solved, and this
problem may as a matter of fact, now
be regarded as solved"
Proved His Theories.
1.-THE best and most incontestable
proof Of the practicable utility of the
process was furnished by myself. The
Prussian minister of justice placed at
my disposal numerous objects pre-
served from criminal trials long since
concluded, on which were bloodstains
of whose origin I had no knowledge
whatever. My reports containing the

R|GHT-OF-WAY CASE IN COURT
Trial Of Importance Began at Van.
couVer Today.
JUDGE MCcREED|A HEARING CASE
CASE INVOLVES EVERY POINT OF
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
HILL AND HARTMAN.
JUDGE MCcREED|N HEARING CASE

VANCOUVER. April livery point
of difference between Hill and Harri-
man lines now engaged in a contest on
tho north hank Of the Columbia, is in
volved in the trial of condemnation
suit that began today IN Judge Nc
Credie's court in Vancouver.
The action is brought by the Port
land & Seattle company to condemn a
right-of-way across the old Nick lSaacS
tract in Clarke county, owned now by
the Columbia Valley, a Hartman rail-
road. The Hill lawyers will contend
that the rights of the Columbia Valley
have lapsed and that the Hartman
road is only a road of obstruction and
not q legitimate project This was the
case in which the Columbia Valley
asked an Injunction against the Port
land & Seattle. and then warned Judge
McCredie that he would be response
BILE for acts of violence unless he an
nounced his decision. There has been
no grave danger though, the Hill gra-
ders having ceased work at each end
of the tract
This trial will occupy a week. If
the Hill interests win. the Hartman
opposition has but one more stand
that of the Portage road at Cello. So
the case is to be stubbornly fought.
