JUAN BRAVO HELD
 FOR FELONY CHARGE
Vicious Assault on His Aged Father
 in-LaW.

Juan Bravo was arrested Wednesday night by Policeman Bloomhorst and Special Officer AIvarado, a city em- ploye who has police authority. near the corner of Madison and Eleventh streets in the southeastern part Of town. Bravo seems to fbe a particu- larly vicious Mexican and has a crimi- nal record that will not help him any in his present plight. He will be turned over to the county authorities today and a charge of assault with intent to kill will probably be made against him, or should his victim take a turn for the worse he may be accused of homi- eide
 Bravo is married to a daughter of a man named BadiIla, who lives in the southeast part of town. the Badilla family living with him. Bravo and the old man have had trouble before and are the most apt to clash when under the influence of liquor. Wednesday night it is said that both were iu thelr cups and started home together. A short distance from the house the old man gave out and sat down to rest when the young man approached and it. is said by witnesses. began kicking
 h-m on the body. head and in fact wherever he could make a landing with his foot Then he started away saying he was going after something
 to kill the old man. whom he referred | To very profanely.
 About this time Alvarado. who had , been attracted to the scene, tried to place Bravo under arrest. but the latter questioned his authority. Rather than engage in combat with him AIvarado went to the Redlight saloon and tele- phoned for assistance. Bloomhorst and Alvarado brought him to the city jail Yesterday Marshal Kinney went down
 to inquire after the condition of Ba-
 dilla who had been taken home by the
 neighbors. He found the old man was splitting blood. physician was sum
 mOned and he announced that the
 blood came from one of Badilla's lungs
 but how badly it is injured could not be told for a day or so. He might re cover quickly or the wound might cause his death.
 Bravo's past record includes warIiko
 relations with his own family as well
 as others. It is alleged that his mar
 riage was hastened by the necessity of
 a choice between the altar and the penirentiary. as he had induced the girl to leave home before the tying Of
 the knot. Some time ago. as the final act of an acrimonious coIIoqUy with his i wife. he presented shotgun argument, 1 injecting a couple of bUckshot into her { leg. which she still carries to remem- Der him by. On that occasion he was proceeded against by a felony charge but BadilIa. his latest victim. having , smOOthed matters out persuaded the authorities to reduce the charge to a misdemeanor and he escaped with a sixty-day jail sentence. It is also l charged that before all this he had some sort of a connection with a case ! of criminal assault, the details of which are not recalled and punishment for which he also escaped by. some good | fortune

HE WAS LlfF-WEARY A MtXICAN'S SUICIDE
He Threw Himself Under a Train
 Near HariCopa.

The first sacttor. cf train No. on the Southern Pacific Wednesday night hit a Mexicon whose name has not as yet been definitely learned and threw him a distance of fifty feet. injuring him so badly that an hour later he died. The accident occurred at a sid ing named Laird and there is every in dication that the man committed sui eide. The coroner's inquest will be held at Maricopa this morning. at which time the mans identity will be esta ablished. IL is known that he was an employe of the Ben Heney com pany, the labor agent TOT tle Southern Pacific company.
 Ever since the Heney company began work for the Southern Pacific the man who was killed had been in it's employ. On account of his Knowledge of the Spanish language he was of great ser vice. Frequently he made trips to Fl Paso to secure laborers but for the past three weeks he had been in charge of the commissary of the company at a grading camp located near Laird. Tuesday the Mexican visited Maricopa and accumulated a jag. He repeated it on Wednesday, spending the greater part of his time there. The trainmen of No. claim that as they approached the station of Laird. which is only Q flag station, the engineer was given a flag. This is against all rules of the company unless the situation is de- cidedly urgent. The rule is that the first section of all trains must not be Jagged and especially the first section of the eastbound No. 9. for it has hard schedule until it passes Bowie.
 No sooner was the train Jagged than the Mexican rushed into his car, where he keeps the commissary. and then almost immediately ran out again just in time to throw himself in front of the engine. He was turned aside and thrown a distance of fifty feet. The train was at once brought to a stop and the train crew made search for the man. They found him. his neck broken and several of his ribs also. He was at once taken aboard and car ried into MaricoDa. wnere a physician examined him. There was no relief to be given the injured man for he had been fatally wounded and he died a few minutes after the physician had reached him.

Maricopa of Perry Williams, the jus tice of the peace, word was sent to the justice at Casa Grande and he was ex- pected to arrive at Maricopa last night on the first section of No. 10. The trainmen win also have returned to MaricOpa by that time and their testi- mony was necessary in connection with the inquest.
 The man was about 24 years of age. It was claimed by one who thought he knew him that he was a half-brother of the Mexican consul at Tucson. Ar uIro Elias. Fhe coroner's jury which will sit in the case is composed of F. J. Mccarthy, Fred Hoover. Lee Perkins. I. T. Sparks. Foreman Hudloe and Jack Williams.

HAY WAS DIPLOMATIC EVER
The Late Secretary of State "Ead q
Way with Him" That
Always Won.

Story is told of the late John Hay
Illustrative of that fine diplomatic
temperament that made his name
know all over the world, says the
American Spectator.
Some years ago Mr.. Hay sent Mr..
Alexander Gum, of Cleveland, for his
perusal the manuscript CT an interest
ing bit of work by Mark Twain, en-
titled, "a Conversation as it was at
the Social Fireside in the Time of the
Tudors." Mr.. Hay knew that his
friend Gum, connoisseur of litera-
ture and art, would be much interest
ed in what the former termed "seri-
GUS effort to bring back our literature
and philosophy to the chaste, Eliza
bethan standard"
Now it appears that Mr.. Gum was
so delighted with Twain's sketch that
he wrote to Mr.. Hay proposing to
print limited number of copies there
of for private distribution. 1t is said
that Mr.. Hay replied as follows:
THE proposition you make to pull a
few proofs of Twain's masterpiece is
highly attractive, and, of course, high
ly immoral. l cannot properly consent
to the suggestion, as I am afraid the
great man would think l was taking
an unfair advantage of his confidence.
Accordingly, 1 will thank you to send
back the manuscript as soon as pos
sible; but if, in spite of my prohibit
ion, you take those proofs, save me
one"
1t was superfluous to add that, with
his hint, the proofs were pulled
one for Mr.. Hay and one for Mr..

THEN he FELT sTREAKED.

There Wasn't Any occa-
sion for It

A gentleman and his wife were sit
ting in one of the front rows in the
ater On the floor the man saw large
hat-pin with an amber head. The Chi
cago Daily News tells what he did
with it.
Looking about him, he saw that
two women and their escorts had just
sat down. To one of the women he
presented the pin. A shake of the head
indicated that he had made mistake
Then he tried two ladies across the
aisle. They seemed to be interested
The pin was curiosity, and it's amber
of unique carving. They hesitated,
but handed the pin back.
Desperately, he began the search
anew. Two ladies unattended seemed
likely owners. To them also he
showed the pin They took it and en-
joyed its pattern.
Just then the man felt a tug on his
sleeve. 1t was his wife, and she re-
marked, why are you showing my
hat-pin to strangers?"
Blushing, he went over to the Ia
dies, who were still looking at the pin,
and explained.
"It's my wife's pin," he said, but in
such consciously guilty accents that
the women handed 1t back with doubt
ing smiles.

PAINTING SPELLS
Cured by DR.. Williams Pink Pills, the

An9mia makes the patient short of

suffocation, sometimes there is a cough
and the sufferer seems to be going into
consumption, at others there is a muir
muir of the heart and heart disease is
feared. In the following case severe
fainting spells were an alarming symp-
tom resulting from I" too little blood.''
Mrs. George Forester, of z Curtis
street, Watertown, NY, says: "Some
time ago took heavy cold and it left
me i'll very weak condition. I be-
came worse and worse until finally I
had an8mia. 1 lost flesh and appetite,
had no color and was subject to fainting
spells. Sometimes they would attack
me suddenly and would fall to the floor
with hardly any warning.
81 had one of our best physicians,
but after he had been attending me
about a month without any improve
ment i'll my condition, decided to see
what DIR. Williams Pink Pills would do.
"The pills were well known to me
for, about two years before, members
of my family had taken them with the
best results. l soon found that the pills
were just what l needed for soon be-
gan to notice an improvement. After I
had taken them while longer Twas en-
tirely cured, and we, all believe in DR..
Williams Pink Pills and recommend
them highly"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills actually make
new blood. They do that one thing and
they do it well. Impoverished blood is
deficient in red corpuscles. Dr. Williams
Pink Pills increase the number of these
red corpuscles and i'll this way send

If her system is in a deranged condi-
ton, or she is predisposed to apoplexy
or congestion of any organ, it is at this
time likely to become active and, with
a host of nervous irritations, make life
a burden.
At this time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to begin their destruc-
tive work. Such warning symptoms as
a sense of suffocation, hot flashes, dir
illness, headache, dread of impending
evil, sounds in the ears, timidity, pal
pitation of the heart, sparks before the
eyes, Irregularities, constipation, varia-
BILE appetite, weakness and inquietude
are promptly needed by intelligent
women who are approaching the period
of life when woman's great change
may be expected.
