NEW UNCLE TOMS CABIN.

Nuch popular interest will bt
aroused by the rumor that Ind
lana 5 successful playwright, Mr.
George AIDE. is preparing a new
version of Uncle Toms cabin.
This, of itself, would attract
wide attention. but still more vii
be excited by the report that the
Uncle Tom of the play will be
none other than the Hon. Thos.
Taggart, and the cabin will be
his celebrated French Lick resort.
The first act portrays his happy
life in this peaceful home intro
ducing the plantation melodies
"There'll Be a Rattlin' of Dem
Dry Bones" and Twill be Seben
Come Eleben in Dat Happy
Land" and also the Pluto Ballet
which in its mystic suggestive
ness is said to surpass Hades
This idylic life is broken in
upon b. unexpected reverses,
and Uncle Tom is sold into the
political slavery of the dry belt
through the Vaccinations OF the
Anti-Saloon League Here his
life is made a slow nightmare by
the prosecutions of Legree who
is represented by Governor Han
". Uncle Tom escapes across
Lick Creek on an INDUCTION, with
a faro layout under one arm and
a box of Pluto Poker chips under
the other The curtain falls on
this act, only to rise on a beauti-
full tableau, with Uncle Tom in
safety at the front, while a back
ground of clouds is occupied by
Little Eva and Topsy, leading a
chorus of angels who sing
There's One More River to
Cross"
But the bloodhound still pursue
him, and chase him into the
Legislature. This act is made
tn iiling by several prosecuted
Elias who pass the champagne
on ice, and cross over to Ken
lucky with their outfits in search
Of freedom The SC ne then
shifts to the Legislature, where
Uncle Tom is saved through a
powerful speech by Lawyer
Trademarks, which reaches a
climax in the sentiment: / am
weary of catering to this tire
some moral element. F" Mr.. AIDE
avoids the conclusion Of har-
rowing death for Uncle Tom,
and leaves him at the end in his
new home in Tennessee, where
there are no cop3ers and every
thing is played open. 1t is a
pleasing pastoral scene, with the
plutocrats drinking medlcinaI
water and mixing affably with
the deck hands. The lambs
gambling on the green, and the
little chipmunks raking in chips

Saturday evening about four o'clock Archie Chisholm and Charlie Salazar were double lacking in the shaft now being sunk on the Baldwin property, recently bonded by L. H. Sammons and A Bodleson, located about twenty five miles from Benson, and five miles west of the lower Etz ranch Their drill struck charge placed by the previous shift that had missed fire, causing an explosion, injuring both men, Salazar quite seriously.
 The Cochise County Press says Dr. Powell was immediately summoned and spent two hours picking out particles of rock and dressing the wounds of Salazar. The doctor states that it will be all of six weeks before Salazar will be able to work again.
 The wounds of Chisholm were ex- amined and dressed, which are not serious, and he will be around again n about a week.

Insurance Companies
 Coming to Arizona

According to the license books oI the territory four fife insurance and seven fire insurance conpanies have entered the field in Arizona since Jan uary 1.
 This is only one of the many signs that eastern capital and eastern busi. ness is looking toward Arizona. It is something uncommon Tor eleven com panies to enter one field in a short period of six months.
 All this means money in the cof- fers ot the territory, and it might be added, it also means money in the ceffers of the companies SO wise AS to enter business in this territory. Tbere are few fields so promising for the of inhabitants.
 It is safe to say that before the year is out several other big insurance con- panies will decide to get a share of the Arizona business.

Mexican Troops
 Defeated by Yaquis

Word comes from a reliable source to the International-American of a sharp fight between the Yaqui Indians, a 'quad of men from the Transvaal mine, west of Cumpas, Sonora, and about seventy of the Msx;csn federal troops.
 The Yaquis numbered about twen- ty-eight. They went of down the range to Moctezuma. Here they de- manded and obtained flour at a grist mill. This they loaded on burros and commenced their retreat to their mountain fastness. About three or four miles distant the Yaquis had smother encounter with the fedora troops and dispersed them, contin- ing their retreat. Several Mexicsns were killed.

Viewing Mars
 From Arizona

Prof. Percivai Lowell. the million. aire astronomer of Flagstaff, whose famous To ell observatory at that place is known throughout the scien- tiic world, as being oi international importance, speaking of the recent observations oi the planet Mars, gave the following facts to the Prescott Journal Miner:
 "The most interesting and suggest i've feature of the observations IS the unusually we'll displayed spring melt ing of the south polar cap, enabling its finer details to be caught for the first time. Three months ago the cap came down to latitude 4 degrees on the planets surface, and wac of indef- mite contour. It has now shrunk to latitude 50 degrees and is belted by a dark band that continuously retreats with 1t. No substance known to us could present ttis metamorphosis, in- cluding the accompanying girdle, but snow turning to water.
 "Anciilarv to this melting: dark lines have appeared issuing from the edge of the cap, and proceeding dcwn the disk to connect with the extreme southern canals in the light areas. These have shown darkest nearest the cap the source and sequence of the phenomenon thus completely corrob- orsting the explanation of them pre- viously advanced by this observatory, to. wit: that the canals were depend ent upon the water let loose from the cap for their origin and office.
 "At the same time, Mir. Iamplund has beeu pbotographing the planet again with a process.surpassing tha. at the last opposition. The dark stresks from the polar cap observed here visibly show beautifully in the photo graphs, ard the canals themselves come out with q defniteness exceed ing expectations. More than a score cs them have already been registered, and in both the photographs and the naked eye observations the canals ap- pear linear and continuous. The pho. tographs thus entirely confirm the visual observations"

A Douglas Editor
 In the Tolls

Arrested in Douglas on 6 charge o larceny in Mexico, c. G. Lelevier and his son. Yxes Lelevier. were, accord ing to the Star, brought to Tucson early yesterday morning and lodg d in the county jail until extradItion proceedings can be started.
 Deputy United States Marshals Clark and Myers lett Tucson early Saturday. going to Douglas armed with warrants for the arrest of the two men. They had no trouble ap. pretending them.
 Lelevier is the editor of Mexican paper in Douglas known ss "Indns- trial" which is a sort of revolutionary publication, and would, if possible. change the official roster of Mexico in several spots.
 In just what the larceny consists l could not be learned. In some quar- ters it is believed that the larceny charge is but a means of getting Le- levier and his son back into Mexico to be charged with some other offense of a political nature.
