TOWN WAS SAVED BY HERO
Engineer Runs Cars of Dynamite
Away From Town.

Douglas, Ariz., Nov. 10.-The death
list as a result of the Nacozari explo-
sion is now placed at IA or Is, all Mex
leans, besides John Chisholm aged 10,
who was riding on the train when the
explosion occurred.
A train on the narrow gauge railway
to the Pilares mine in some way
caught fire. In the train were two
open cars loaded with explosives, and
the fact that the concentration and a
good part of the town of Nacozari was
saved from ruins was due to the
bravery of the Mexican engineer of
the train, Jesus Garcia. Realizing
that to cut out the burning cars and
escape on the engine would expose the
town to probable destruction, he called
to the rest of the crew to jump and
started to run the train away from the
town He had taken it about a half
mile when the explosion occurred, and
he was blown to atoms. 1t is reported
that another member of the crew stay
ed with him and was killed. The heavy
death list is due to the fact that the
explosion occurred just as the traH
was passing a section house in which
there were a number of section men.

There Is an old saying, much quoted
by advocates of early risng-it Is the
early bird that gets the worm. That's
all right for the bird, but how about
the worm? The editor knows a man
that has reasoned the thing out and
has concluded that rising late is the
proper thing to do. Here Is the way
he puts it:
The lark was up to meet the sun, and
carol for his lay;
The farmers son took down his gun, and
at him bla2ed away.
The busy bee arose at ., and buzzed the
meadows DER;
The farmers wife went for it's hive, and
robbed it of its store.
The nimble ant rose early, too, his labors
to begin;
The greedy swallow few that way, and
took his antship in.
o bees, and birds, and ants, be wise. in
proverbs take no stock:
Like me, refuse to rise until it's half-past
s o'clock.

LIABILITY BILL ACTED UPON.

Regarded by Commercial Interests as
 very Drastic Measure.
 The manufacturing and commercial interests of Montgomery are alarmed over the situation with reference to substitute for House bill No. 42s. known as the employers liability act. as agreed upon by the House Judiciary Committee yesterday.
 At meeting of the Judiciary Conn mittee a few days ago, Representative King of Jefferson County, was appoint ed to redraft the bill. and it had been hoped by business people that the bill would be reported by the committee without any of the urastic features of the original bill introduced by Mir. John
 The bill as renorted. according to the opinion expressed by attorneys of some of the leading business institutions of Montgomery, Is as dangerous as the original bill Among other things the proposed substitute destroys the doc Urine of contributory negligence, and establishes the doctrine of comparative negligence. It destroys the fellow ser want doctrine, 1t destroys the doctrine of assumption of risk Under existing laws the measure of damages recov- erable by the administrator of an em- ploye for death Is based upon his ex- pectancy and his earning capacity. Un- Ter this bill there is no limit to the amount that may be recovered by the administrator of a deceased employe, the entire matter being referred to the jury, so that punitive damages may be recovered instead of compensatory dam ages.
 It should be borne in mind that the provisions of this bill apply to all em- ployers of labor, the farm hand as well as the employe of a corporation.
