the story as we were huddled around

dogs had been driven by bitter,
binding, blizzard storm, He said:
One summer long ago | was with

making long journey over the rolling
prairies from one place to another.
That we might have plenty of meat TO

about two days journey ahead Of the
company 10 kin all the game we could
THE reason why we kept so far
apart was because we had dogs, and
babies and women in our party, and,
you know, they all make much noise
so they would scare the animals far
away
Well we two hunters had kept far
ahead Some days we had good luck
and killed a great deal, and then other
days we did not kin much. What we
got we cached so that the party could
easily find It by the sign we gave
them when they came along. We al
ways put it near the trail for them
Then we could push on, looking far
more
One day as we had passed several
valleys and had seen nothing that was
worth our while. we came to the top
Of a pretty large hill and cautiously
looked over. There was a sight that
we shall never forget
Right down before ms. within gun.

Ed. F. Gilbert Killed.

While unloading hay at his corral, in the southeast part of Kingman Sat- urday afternoon, Ed. F. Gilbert fell backward out of his wagon striking on his head and breaking his neck, death being instantaneous. w. A. Rieff was working with Mr. Gilbert at the time and believes that he was lifting bale of hay when his hook slipped out, and losing his balance, he was precipitated to the ground. An inquest was held Saturday and a verdict of accidental death returned.
 Deceased was one of the pioneers of this territory, coming to the territory in the early seventies. He was mar ried to Miss Sarah Boner, daughter of T. R. Buner, in the latter part of the seventies and had his home in Wick enburg, from which place MT. Gilbert carried on the business of teaming. The wife died with small poX in the early eighties, leaving three children, two girls and boy. These children, now grown to maturity, are living somewhere in Iowa with the mother or sister of deceased. There are also several brothers of deceased in Ne vada and Montana, but their addresses are unknown.
 The funeral took place from the un- dertaking parlor of c. R. Van Marter Sunday afternoon, Rev. w. G. Blakely preaching the funeral services at the grave. A large number of friends and acauaintances of deceased followed the remains to their last resting place
 Col. Jackson, son and daughter-in law, departed to the coast last Mon day evening. They will be gone abou three months, when it is probable tha they will return and take up mining properties in this county. Col. Jack son is favoraLly impressed with th' outlook for mining in this section ant
 believes he can get something goo' by looking the field over clos ely. o. P. Hart, the Needles Dentist
 will be at the Commercial Hotel Jul 18th and will remain two weeks.

New Texas Laws.

Texas is leading kansas in monop- olistic and other laws for the regula- tions of affairs in that great state Some of the recent enactments are peculiar in many respects. The hoo- inson law requires insurance com panies doing business in the state to deposit at least seventy-five per cent of the reserves on Texas business in state Repositories. This law, it is be- lieved, will result in the withdrawal of nearly; if not all, the companies from the state.
 The anti-pass law does not allow even a railroad man to ride on a pass unless on the business of the railroad company. Even the state board of railway commissioners must pay fares. This rigid law is to give the legisla- ture chance to regulate fares on a clear basis.
 The new liquor law abrogates all licenses in the state on the 18th day of this month. No license can be issued to any one convicted of felony, nor to one who has not resided in the county of issue more than two years, nor who has ever had a licence revok- Cor forfeited, nor who is of ques- tionable character.
 Another law for sanitary regula- tions of hotels, lodging houses and sleeping cars requires that top sheets on all beds rented or leased to the public shall be at least nine feet in length.
 Many other laws are quite radical in their effects and the people of Texas will wonder where they are at until the new batch of laws have been fully promulgated.

Absurd Indian Policy.

At the N. E.. A. convention, in Los Angeles, the teachers of the U. 5. h. dian schools are making a great ado about the higher education Of the saV- ayes and the good work the govern ment is doing for its wards. Superin- tendent of Indian service Leupp be- lieves the Indians are passing their white brothers in the matter of educa- tion. All this brag, blow and buster about the education of the Indian is the veriest rot. Every one in Arizona has seen the results of the socalled education of the Indian. Take for ln- stance the schools in this county: The children are taken from their parents at tender age and placed under the tutelage of experienced teachers, where they are kept for from three to seven years. They are taught the various branches of English and like wise given instruction in needlework, farming. and number of the trades. But when this has been done the poor devils are turned back to the filthy hogans of the tribe, where they be- come more degraded than the old, un- educated aborigines. We will guar antee to say that not one Indian who has been graduated from the two h. dian schools of the county, land there are hundreds) has ever attempted to put his education to use. On the con- trary the educated Indian is of less use to the tribe and to the whites than his uneducated brother. The whole system of education is wrong. The Indian should be taught to farm, to build and live in houses, to raise cat tie and horses and to become self sus. taining. To do this the government should set aside tracts of land tha, could be irrigated and compel every Indian to do his share in reclaimine the lands and making a living. After this system is inaugurated then the rudiments of an English education should be given the younger members of the tribe, no thought being giver to that "higher education" that these foolish teachers rave about. In thi
 way the Indian can be reclaimed iron savagery and made self-sustaining The educated young folk would not b.
 ashamed to go back to the homes o
 their fathers and in generation o
 two would be able to take their prop
 CT place in the nation.

A Patriotic Son of America.

A letter from EldOradO canyon, Ne- vada, brings us this little story of one mans patriotism in the desert recesses of Arizona the glorious Fourth of July:
 On the third day of July Cyrus Chil- ders, mail carrier between the Canyon and White Hills, arrived at the Can yon with the mail and then crossed the river to the Arizona side, where he has a corral and willow shack. Here he cooked his supper of bacon and f]apiacks and turned ir for the night, which was spent in fighting mosquitoes and getting broken rest of few hours. Bright and early the next morning he had hoisted small U. $. flag over his desert home, and thus far away from the haunts of men he in his own way paid his tribute of honor to the Nations Natal Day. The day was an unusual one even for the desert country, the thermometer registering | l26 in the shade, and no shade to be had. Far away, on the Nevada side of the river, the people of Eldorado Can- yon watched the glorious old flag
 floating in the breeze throughout the day and when the sun was setting in the west Childers came out of his lit. tie shack and fired salute to the orb
 of day cheers went up from the little
 band of Americans in the rock ribbed
 canyons of the Silver State. This sim
 ple act of patriotism will endear Cy
 Childers to the hearts of the big
 hearted miners of the desert.

 Geer, were in Kingman yesterday

BETTER WATER IN SIGHT.

With the advent of municipal own ership in Fort Smith there can be no doubt that the quality of the drinking water will be improved wonderfully, says the Fort Smith News-Record.
 Nothing adds to the attractiveness of city more than good, pure potable drinking water This is one of the first questions asked by the prospec- tive settler, and Fort Smith should be able to answer that it affords the best drinking water on earth.
 There is absolutely no reason why such a condition should not exist.
 All that is needed is a better plant and better Altering facilities-or bet ter still, pure artesian water.
 If the city of Fort Smith buys it's water works, as now looks probable, it will not be many years until the cit izens are supplied with pure water, either artificially filtered or from an arteSian sOurce
 There has been little complaint of the quality of the water in the past, but it can be materially bettered.

DOWIEISM.

The newspapers are filled with stories and paragraphs of every sort on John Alexander Dowie since his recent demise. To our mind the most wonderful feature of Dowies rise and fall is that it was possible in free and enlightened republic like this, for him to build up such a strong relig ious cult as he did on such an cratic and irrational foundation. It almost seems travesty on the merits of the newspapers and periodicals, as we'll as the Christian religion itself, that, after all of the years of teaching and preaching, so many American citizens and so many millions of dollars could be gathered together on such fruit less plan as was his.
 If it suggests anything at all it must suggest the unsatisfied condition of the mind of a considerable element of society on religious matters It seems certain to us that only one groping in the dark on this subject could even be interested in Dowie let alone becoming one of his subjects, as we might call those who worshiped at his shrine.-Ft.

 Case of Henry Splain.

mitted his guilt. When he was taken to the scaffold he was so weak from fright that it was necessary to almost carry him.
 The crime for which FOgg was executed was committed on August 19 last near Hudspeth. It was alleged that Foss and Nelson had ouarreIad over some matter. Nelson was driving some cattle to his home when he was shot from ambush. The shots were fired by someone concealed behind clump of bushes at the roadside. Fogg was arrest ed and convicted of the murder. He was first sentenced to be hanged on November 30, but an appeal was taken to the supreme court, and this acted as stay of execution. The decision of the lower court was recently affirmed and new date was set for Fogg's execution.
