HeTold, the strong who has signed articles with Sid Var ney. the local giant. while not a man of great size or weight ranks among the strongest men of the country and his feats have been applauded by the audiences of vaudeville theatres all over the land. Herold is not pro- fessional wrestler. but an instructor of physical culture and the art of wrestl- ing. He has never made a business of wrestling for purses. but because of his supreme confidence in his strength and agility, is confident that he is able to hold his own with most of the professionals.
 Herold is now quartered at Lowell, where, with his manager, H. F. Tay- Tor. he has started active training for the event which is scheduled to come off in the near future. The date has not been definitely decided upon. Varney is desirous of having the event arranged for Labor Day. but Manager Taylor. acting for Herold. is of the opinion that the event would be a greater financial success if conducted later in the month.
 Indications point toward the match being conducted outside of Bisbee. Taylor was unable to enter into satis- factory negotiations with the local theatrical management and is now trying to secure the Don Luis ball park for the event if such an arrange ment would be satisfactory to Varney. There is no hitch in the date or place of holding the event and the most advantageous and convenient place will probably be chosen.

mile, as the explosion is so terrific that i: is felt for miles.
 There is no tarrying in the vicinity of the charge after the fuse has been lighted. The man who has been de- tailed to light the fuse sees that it is well started and then he hikes rapid ly away. The fuse sputters and burns rapidly approaching the several thou sand pounds of explosives.
 There is one final sputter, then a binding flash. a deep, muffled roar and portion of the side of the moun- tain seems to stand out and then fall to the earth in thousands of pieces, large and small.

In the meantime, HerOld. who nev- CT allows himself to get out of condi- ton, is plodding away at Lowell, dO- on the mat with all corners. He is a magnificently built man anj from all outward appearances is entitled to any claims he sees fit to advance regarding his prowess.
 One of his daily stunts for the ed ificatlon of his visitors. a large num- Der of which are daily crowding his training quarters, is the lifting of 450 pounds straight above his head. AL though weighing but 157 pounds. Her old's neck measures IT inches around. He claims to be as strong in the neck as any living man.
 Varney. who has not taken part in match since his defeat at the hands of John Middlesky. the Indian brought here by Taylor last spring. will at once take up his training in prepara- tion for the event. Varney should need but little work as he is man always in good condition. His open air employment has done him no in jury and but little mat work will put him in as good condition as ever.
 Interest is beginning to show itself in the match. Few are of the opinion that Herold can get away with the big fellow. Varney has already dem- onstrated his ability to handle men of this class. Two years ago he made handily. His only defeat he suffered at the hands of Middlesky who weighed 150 pounds more than he did

MEX CENTRAL TRAIN
 IS REPORTED DITCHED
Passenger Train TWenW-Four Hours Late on Account
 of WreckS.

FL PASO, Aug. 2S.-That the Mexi, can Central train due here last night at o'colck has tipped over between Pacheco and La Colorado, about $50 miles south of this city is the report that has reached here this morning. It is not known how bad the wreck is, but from the fact that the morning train due to leave here at 10 o'clock did not go out until about ? o'clock this afternoon, and last nights train will not reach here till tonight, it is taken to mean that the track where the accident occurred has caused great delay in travel.
 It is known that heavy rains have been falling in the south for the past few weeks and that several washouts have delayed traffic. It is reported that a washout on the line caused the wreck.
 No particulars are received here as the scene of the wreck is below the Chihuahua division.
 A borrowed Sierra Madre engine pulled the train out of here this after noon for the south.

SALOONMEN USING
 BOTTLES SECOND TIME
Next Grand Jury to Investigate Phoenix Retail Liquor
 Dealers.

PHOENIX, Aug. 2S.-For a violation of the Federal laws regulating the sale of liquor number of Phoenix sa- loon men will probably be dealt with at the next session of the United States District Court, which convenes the first of October.
 Your correspondent is reliably in formed that Richard DeKuhn, inter- nal revenue inspector for this section. has convincing evidence against some of the local saloons and that it has or will be placed in the hands of United States District Attorney J. L. B. Alexander to be laid before the Federal Grand Jury.
 One of the violations, and it is charged that Phoenix saloons are not alone in this practice, is for the bar tender to open a bottle of fine bond whiskey and when it is empty instead of opening another, refill the bottle with cheaper brand, of inferior quail ity. It would be sodl for the brand that the bottle originally contained at fancy price. This practice has been going on, it is said, for some time.

S.P. |S BLASTING
 A MOUNTAIN OF ROCK
Thousands of Pounds of Dyna- mite Used in One
 Charge,

The Southern Pacific is blasting out mountain of stone along the line of its Nogales branch. The rock is be- ing used for supports for viaducts, bridges and retaining walls and for ballasting the track.
 As the rock quarry is some distance from the main line, a spur track has been built in and many cars are hand led in a day.
 It can easily be imagined that ter rife blasts are necessary to jar loose the massive rocks and the job of pre- pairing and touching them off is scarcely to be longed for.
 The fuse is laid along the outer tun- nel to a secure place outside and the tunnel is tamped with 2000 sacks of sand. Just before the fuse is lighted the cars are removed a distance of a

Capt Oyster said that Cardozo had not

consent of the members Of the board in
view of the existing facts. and after
careful elaboration. Il was their unani-
nous conclusion that for disloyalty and
lack of respect to his superior officers.
that Cardozo's dismissal would be FOR
the good of the service. Every letter Of
the law had been cOnfOTmed with and
according TO Capt Oyster there had
