 Prof. Lawrence MeCsrty, who has the production Of the drama in hand has been seriously i'll for the past week, and although he is now couval- escing his physician, Dr. Sloane, ad- vises that two weeks recuperation is essential to the well being of his pa tient.
 It is to be regretted that this play is necessarily postponed, but gener- ous public will doubtless share in the chagrin and modification that the prime movers c! the entertainment are called upon to bear.
 Admission ticket. hitherto pur- chased are good for the advanced date. A half dozen or more reserved seats remain unsold, so fl if you in tend going the earlier you secure your reserves" the better.
 The local talent has rehesrsed to that perfection that the rendition of "Damon and Pythias" will he equal to thst of professionals. Remember, there will be no further change of date. Thursday, July II

Hundreds of Japs
 On the Border
An Fl Psso dispatch says:-

An Fl Paso dispatch ssys:-
 The hordes of laps that have been coming into Juarez, which now num- Der several hundred, have become SO numerous, state merchants in the Mexican city, that they are becoming a menace.
 They are said to be highly imper- ious in theIr manners and have in some instances made threats to those who have come in contact with them in a personal o- business way.
 Complaint has been made to the city officials by business men of the annoyance caused by their conduct in stores and other places of business. They are said to bear an attitude of dictatorship and il they are not given what they want to curse those who have not pleased them.
 Since the refusal of the United States government to admit any more ot the Japanese of the peon class, those who come here to enter into the United States through Fl Paso find themselves strsnded in Juarez. There are now about 250 of the brown men, in the Mexican city Most of them have been unable to find work and sperd their time loafng about the public places. It IS thought that they will make an effort to colonize some-. where in the vicinity Of Juarez, as several of them have made inquiries ssout land in the neighborhovd. They are said to have enough money to purchase suitable site and start arming.

Arizona Forest Ranger
 Must Do Time

Another prisoner who has served a term for psrdonsble infringement O! the law left the penitentiary yester. day after serving a years sentence. Hi. name ,s William Moulter and he was forest ranger in Apache county when the trivial trouble arose which resulted so seriously for him.
 A Mormon family living near him owned steer which persistently destroyed whatever could be found to destroy around the Moulter house. The ranger repeatedly told the family to keep the animal of his premises. They, however, paid no attention to his requests, and finally his patience gave out snd he shot the steer. As soon ss the animal WAS dead, he rode rode to the house of the Norman family, told them what he had done and offered to pay for the steer.
 The head Of the Mormon family re- fused the proffered money and took the affair to court, and Moulter was convicted. He appealed the case to the supreme court and was released on bond. At the same time he was let out of the government employ, on account of the trouble, and he went to Montana.
 The supreme court, however, sus- tained the decision of the lower court and the sheriff of Apache county wrote to Moulter asking him to return to the territory, Moulter came, at once, sad was broush. .c the prison to serve 2 year for shooting q steer that was . nuiss nee to the neighborhood.-sun.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local explorations, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is unframed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when It is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is noth. ing but an inflsmed condition of the surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (csused by that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars free.

 These Russians. together with the Chinese, put in at the Iort of Gusy- mas . short time age. The immi- grants were brought into that port with the design of working them on the s. P. construction in Mexico. The Russian in Tom bstone tells an awful story of ill treatment and mis. representation.

 On July lst

Alter July 1 special delivery stamps will no longer be required upon let ters if the sender wishes to reach the recipient sooner than in the ordinary mail. Ten cents additional postage with the word special" marked prom inently on the envelope is all that will be required. Everyone should take notice that this means IF cents on an ordinary letter.

While this means much more work for the postofiice people, i. will be great convenience for the public, as there will be no hunting around on Sunday for special delivery stamps.

Representative Mondell of Wyoming has gotten his" Tn the shape of a call from the | Interior Department for the return of l60 acres of govern ment land to which he is not entitled. In the general shake. up and straightening out of the land office records, it was found that Representative Mondell had filed on l60 acres of government land-filed on it as agricultural land when in reality it had a vein of coal , on it. Further, he had never lived on the land to perfect his entry as is required by law, but had simply had it handed to him by the land office, probably more because he was a Congressman than for any other reason. Mir. Mondell has been very active in Western land; legislation and has been a strong oppo- nent of the President in a number of his Western land programs. Possibly this per. nicious activity had some thing to do, with his being singled out by the Departmen' to be made au example of Anyhow he returned the lano and no questions were asked It is. a wholesome example but what the country needs i more than an example. 0 course it was wrong for a Con gressman or anyone else t inappropriate. govern men land, but there are hundred of thousands of acres of val uable mineral and timbe land that have been stolel by the thousand acres unde the lax administration of tn, land office, and 1t will be cheering thing when the pub lie gets examples" of nor than l60-acre cases.
