 The shooting occurred in vacant lot in the rear of McLain's saloon near the forks of the Washington Ferry and Wire Roads. The shot from the patrolmans revolver entered the left side of Boyds back, a few inches be- low the heart, apparently penet ated the lung, leaving the body at the left nipple The surgeon who attended Boyd at St. Margaret's Hospital. was let. He believed the ball graZed around the ribs, not penetrating a vi- tai organ. Boyd was resting quietly at an early hour tn s morning but the precise nature of the wound was un- determined.
 Tn connection with the robbery, three other white men of West End were ar- rested later during the night, and were held as suspects. They are Fred Pow CTS. VIII Edwards and Doe Pruitt. Boyd was also docketed as suspect.
 J. M. Palm, who, it is alleged. was being robbed, was also arrested charged with being drunk. The police are af- ter another white man supposed to have been implicated in the affair

The patrolman singled out the nearest one of the gang and fired the shot which struck Boyd, Boyd ran and disappeared from view Patrolman Partin came back to the city. bringing Palm with him.
 A short while thereafter, Mounted Pa trolman Russell found Boyd at the res idence of a man named Brown. be- tween McLains saloon and the Mobile and Ohio shops.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
  Few People Know How Useful It Is I'm PreseFvfng Health and Beauty. Costs Nothing To Try.

Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier In nature. but few realize it's vaule when taken in- to the human system for the same cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you take of 1t the better; 1t is not a drug at all. but simply absorbs tbe gases and impurities always present In the stomach and intestines and car ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking. drinking, or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and i'm proves the complexion. it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartlc.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; if dislnfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in onA form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money Is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal. and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather In the form of large pleasant tastine. lozenges. the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell In much improved condition of the general health, better complex- ion, sweeter breath and purer blood and the beauty of it Is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use. but, on the contrary, great bene fit.
 A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal. says: T ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all natjents suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily use of tbem; they cost but twenty-he cents A box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation. yet I believe I get more and better char coal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tab let's"

THE WORLDS
 PETROLEUM
United States Furnishes
 Halt of it
The Production in this Country was Increased Last Year by 697, ,009, ,000 Gallons.

Washington, Dec 3+-The United States supplied more than one-half of the petroleum produced in the world in 1904. A statement of the worlds pro- ductiOn of petroleum, prepared by the British board of Trade, which has just reached the bureau of statistics of the department of commerce and labor, puts the petroleum production of the world in 1904 at 9,303, 100000 gallons. of which 4,916, 1000. GOO gallons were pro- duced in the United States, 3,650, ,0OO, = coo gallons in Russia, POP, 100000 gal Ions in Austria, 206, 500.00 gallons in Java and Sumatra, 35,00O,000 gallons in Roumania, 1O5 5OO,0OO gallons in British India (principally Burma), 49,- 000,000 gallons in Japan, 10000, 900 gallons in Canada, and 1S,500,000 gal Ions in Germany.
 These figures give the grand total of 9,303.000,000 gallons ofpetroleum in 1904, a total which far exceeds that of any earlier year. In 1903, which made the highest record of any year prior to 1904, the total was but 8,504, 900, 900; in 1902 it was 75SS, ,000, 900. This in- crease in 1903 and 1904 occure chiefly in the United States. The figures of production in the United States show an increase of about 697 million gal Ions in 1904 over the figures of 1903, while those of Russia, our chief com petitor in oil production, show an in crease of but 103 million gallons over 1903, and the increase in the United States in 1903 is also much larger than that Of Russia. In the four years, 1898 1899, 1900, and 1901 Russian production of crude petroleum exceeded that of the United States, but in all other years for which the record is shown by the pub- lication in question, extending from 1883 to 1904, the production of the United States exceeds that of Russia, and by far exceeds that of any other country. Indeed, it may be said that the United States and Russia produce practically nine-tenths of the petro- leum of the world, the total production in 1904, as above shown, being 9,903,- 000,000 gallons of which S,566 GOO, 900 was produced in the United States and Russia combined.
 EXportation of Illuminating oil, or kerosene as it is familiarity called, is also much. greater from the United States than from Russia, especially as American crude oil gives much larg- CT per cent of Illuminating oil than does that of Russia. The total uuanti- ty of refined Illuminating oil exported from Russia in 1904 was 455 million gallons, and from the United States 761 million gallons. Russian exports go largely to southwestern Europe,

three weeks and has told flimsy stories about his business. Another is a stranger who appeared at one of the hotels half an hour after the explo- sion, took a bed and refused to reg ister When pressed to give his name he said they might call him Smith. The third is a Russian, who has been at Caldwell at times for three years. He calls himself Smith. This man has been free drinker but yesterday no one could induce him to take d drink. It seems settled that the explosion was not caused by giant powder. Those having knowledge of such substances and who have examined the scene state that the explosive was undoubtedly nitro- -glycerine.
 Governor Gooding, after having spent the day at the scene states that there is only one conclusion, that Stuenen- burg was killed for the stand he took at the time of the Occur dAlene riots. It transpires that the dead leader re- ceived a letter of warning while in Washington about one and half years ago. It stated that his time was short Some such letters were also received several years ago.

A LATER ARREST.

Portland, Ore, Dec. 31.-An Orego- nian special from Weiser. Idaho, says: Two men answering the description of the men who it is thought arranged the internal machine at Caldwell by which eX-GOvernOr Steunenberg was killed were arrested in this city today. One has large scars on the face similar to one on the face of the man who is suspected of having fired the dynamite to the gate. The men stated that they are miners and one of them. who gave his name as Caldwell, was unable to give a clear account Of his where abouts during the past few days. He is very indignant over his detention and threatened the officers. A detec- tive was sent to Caldwell and instruc- tions were telephoned back to hold the prisoners for further investigation.

I have had many calls of late for 5. 10 AND 20 ACRE TRACTS.

of land near enough to the business center of Phoenix so that a man could do business in the city and live on a small place in the country. Having this in view I have purchased so acres lying S-4 mile west of the fair ground on the Christy road. The ground lays just right for subdividing into 5, 10 and 20 acre tracts and each tract fronting on the Christy coun- ty roads. The soil is of the richest alluvial and of the best straw berry land in the valley. With the land there is a water right in the Mar icopa canal and an independent lateral belonging exclusively to this tract of land, all the way from the canal to the land. I am going to put this tract on the market at s100 to $125 per acre for a short time. This is far below the value of land in this immediate vicinity and I am justified in saying that the surroundings are of the best in the valley. It also has the proximity of the street car to Phoenix. If you want something that will double in value in a year or two. Here is your chance.

MAKING A SENATOR

There is Promise of Most Stubborn
 Deadlock.

Frankfort, Ky, Dec. 31.-With the democratic senate and house caucuses only twenty -four hours away Governor J. c. w. Beckham is being frequently mentioned as the man whose nomina- tion would settle what promises to be one of the most memorable and stub born senatorial deadlocks in the his tory of Kentucky.
 During the past twenty-four hours the situation is changed but little, there being no perceptible variation in the strength Of Senator J. C. S. Blackburn and Thomas H. Paynter, leaders, nor of w. B. Haldeman, the man who with the smallest number of votes, appar- ently holds the key to the situation. The Haldeman men are apparently standing firm. Beckham has several times declared that he is not a candi- date and he has so far as he could consistently do so, supported Judge Paynter.
