The late Stephen Crane in the story
which made hts reputation as writer,
1.-THE Red Badge of Courage" drew a
picture Of the impressions of youth
in his first battle which many veter-
trayal of their own feelings in SINH
lar experience. This young man went
into the fight determined not to show
the white feather, but as the battle
waxed warm he was seized in the grip
of terrible fear and suddenly took to
his heels and made for the rear.
1t is quite probable that if you will
corner any old soldier and pin him
down to absolute candor he will tell
you that he was scared to DEATH or
words to that effect. when first he
heard the hostile bullets whiz and
knew that he must go forward into the
conflict.
General Grant candidly confessed to
a highly uncomfortable feeling upon
two occasions Of imminent battle. one
being his first experience in the Next
can war and the other his Initiation
IN the civil war after fifteen years of
peace. He recorded these sensations
In his personal memoirs. AS to his ex-
perience in Mexico he wrote:
AS we lay in our tents upon the sea-
shore the artillery at the fort on the Rio
Grande could be distinctly heard. The
var had begun. There was no possible
means Of obtaining news from the garri-
son, and information from outside could
not be otherwise than unfagorabe
What General Taylor's feelings were oar-
ing this suspense 1 do not know, but for

had never heard hostile gun before. I
felt sorry that I had enlisted. A great
many men, when they smell battle afar
off, chafe to get into the fray. When
they say 50 themselves they generally
fail to convince their hearers that they
are as anxious as they would like to
make believe, and as they approach dan
ger they become more subdued. This
rule is not universal for have known q
few men who were always aching for q
fight when there was no enemy near who
We're as good as their word when the
battle did come, but the number Of such
men is small.
After several years retirement from
the army Grant entered the great con-
f1ict of the sixties, his first command
being the Twenty-first Illinois volun-
teers. He was sent to northwest Mis-
souri,. where certain regiment was
besieged by the enemy, with instruc-
tons to raise the siege. He wrote as
follows:
My sensations as we approached what

Greene-cananea ground. Construction
 of the railroad line to the site of the
 main working shaft for the America
 properties is being crowded along
 with much rapidity and 1t is now ex-
 pected that trains will be operating
 over the new line some time in May.
 Over a half a mile of rail is now
 down. Some heavy cutting is ahead
 but the manner in which this work
 has been gone about to date indicates
 that 1t will be disposed of in quick
 time. Materials secured from the
 cars will be all sufficient for the fills that will be required. The permanent manner in which the work is being
 done and the fact that the line has
 three rails has strengthened the be- lief that it will eventually be extended considerably beyond the America shaft, possibly into the Manzanais and possibly around a loop to connection with the main line of the c. R. Y. and P. over previously made survey. There is little doubt that the line will l go to the Cananea-Duluth property of 1 the company, the working of which ' has recently been determined as ad- ! yisable through an underground tram \ which will have a length of at least l 2000 feet.

DESTROYS BUILDING AT
 TOMBSTONE
Carpenter Shop at Tranquility Hoist Oevoured In Flames, New Mining Companies File Articles.
Especial to Review.)

TOMBSTONE, Ariz., March 12.- The carpenter shop at the Tranquil ity Hoist was consumed by fire this afternoon shortly after 1 o'clock. The entire building was consumed in a few moments and it was only by prompt work on the part of those employed at the mine that the fire did not reach the shaft. The building caught fire from sparks from the engine on the ore train hauling ore to the mill. This building was saved at the time the old hoisting works burned down last year. The heavy wind blowing at the time of the fire today htndered the men from gaining control of the flames.
 Several new mining companies have been formed in Cochise county dur ing the past few days, who have filed their articles of incorporation in the county recorders -.office. Among them are the following: ...H | Ramona Mining and Manufacturing company. The incorporators are Ii. HoIborn, W. S. Bartlett and W. L. Clapp. Douglas is given as the prin- cipal place of business.

 The remains of J. J. Montz were brought into town this afternoon from his ranch near sycamore Springs, about nine miles north of here, where he died this morning. The deceased was an old time residenter of Cochise county being a resident of Tombstone in the early days. He was sufferer from asthma and had been in poor health for some little time. Last week he contracted a severe cold which developed into pneumonia which resulted in his death. He was a man of middle age and had mum Der of friends in the county who will regret to learn of his demise. The funeral services will be held tomor- row at 1 o'clock under the auspices of the fire department of which he was a member.

WOMEN TOSSED BY ANGRY
 BULLS
Senoritas Put Up Plucky Bull Fight at Juarezr But Daring, Rather Than Skill, Proved Disastrous,

Four of the women bull fighters were tossed in the Juarez arena Sun day, two by the very first bull that came into the ring and in rapid sue cession. One of the matadoras, Her rerita,' was tossed twice by the same bull.
 Outside this the fight was fairly good. although two Of the bulls were never killed and the two that were killed were stabbed several times be- fore death thrust was made
 "Herrerrita" made one of the most sensational kills that has ever been recorded in the Juarez bull ring. This was the first bull that came into the ring. After making several Intellectual stabs, she caught the bull on the turn and striking the spinal cord. the ami mal's feet flew from under him and he dropped as if he had been struck between the eyes with an axe. The crowd applauded IiberslIy this act.
 The sensational horseback riding of Elvira Herrera in placing the bander- illas in the last bull from the back of
 
 features of the fight. She showed herself to be a horsewoman per excel lence.
 She also repeated the Donna Han credat act yesterday, but with less success than on the previous Sunday and was tossed by the bull, not from any fault of hers, however, as she re- mained perfectly motfonIess, but the bull was of the quality that would charge most anything and when turned into the ring he made directly for the statue and caught the woman in the leg with his horn, throwing her from the pedestal. She would prob ably have been seriously hurt had other fighters not rushed to her res cue and distracted the attention of the bull while she made her escape.
 In placing the banderillas from bicycle, the banderillera was thrown by the bull, but not seriously hurt.

.THf COUNTY CHAIRMAN
 SCORES B|G SUCCESS
Theodore BabCoCk In Leading Role Carries Off HonorS
 Excellent Company.

The production of George Ade's most successful play, ''The County Chairman at the Opera House last night. with Theodore Babcock in the title role was without doubt one of the best ever witnessed in Arizona. Much had been claimed for this play, based on the fact that the same com pany had produced it in New York and Chicago with great success. and the production justified all claims. It has been truly said that anyone who has eyer visited a country town can witness production of this play and see in it many scenes which are iden- tical with those that they have seen in actual life.
 Although the company is a strong one throughout, yet the force and nat uralness Of Babcock's portrayal of a familiar character is such that 1t stamps him as a leading candidate for stellar honors, whether on Broad way or in Bisbee. Primarily he is endowed with a personality which fits into the role of a cool-headed, calcu- Iating politician with amazing ease. and yet with it all he displays power in depicting nobler side of the character when he makes known his reason for despising his opponent.

 They were to assemble and march into GoldfieId under the national col 7Ors. Grave results were expected from this move.

HILL TALKS IF
 THE B|G YUMA PROJECT. T..... :.
Says it Will Be Entirely Com pIeted in Two Years, Barring MiShapS-Big Flood in the
 Colorado.

Engineer Louis c. Hill has arrived from Yuma, says the Phoenix DenIo- crat of March 9th, and will be in the city several days. shortly after his arrival he received a telegram from Yuma, stating that the gIIage at Yuma registered 2T 40 feet and that the leyee showed no 5iGas of wsakening.
 This was gratifying news toAEngi- neer Hill. A flood of that depth tests the levee very sharply and a break at any time would mean more trouble for the project.
 Speaking of the situation on the Yuma project. Engineer Hill stated that there are now 500 men and about 200 head of stock at work on the pro ject and the force is being increased. The work is being pushed as rapidly as possible.
 Asked about the possible time re- auired for the completion of the pro ject he stated that it would be finish ed in about two years, barring acci- dents.
 During his visit here Engineer Hin will meet with the representatives of the canal systems of the north side, with reference to the arrangement for completion of the loose-rock dam at the head of the Arizona canal and the maintenance of the dam after its com pletion.
 As has been stated. the government will assume charge of the dam after it is finished, and Will not only keep 1t in repair. but will chink it.
 Speaking of the Salt River project, Engineer Hill stated this morning that the situation is but little changed since he left here. There is too much flood water in the river for much pro gross on the work just at this time
