Leiev.er. editor of the Industrial of this city, has rc- tained Judge William Lowell 70 took after his legal interests at Tucson.
 As yet no move has been made by either the Mexican government 10 get him to Mexico or by Judge Lowell to get him out of jail, the latter stating that he has not yet had time enough to study the case or to map out any plan Of legal action in behalf of Lele- yier.
 Lowell states that habeas corpus will probably be the first move if he finds that there are any defects in the papers on which Lelevier is held a prisoner. If habeas corpus proceed ings do not take place the fight to keep Leleyier in the United States will be made at the hearing to have him extradited
 Lelevier continues to assert that nls arrest IS politlcaI plot, matched against him by officials who take ex- ception to his caustic criticisms of Mexican matters, the prime object of which is to stir up such discontent that President Diaz will have to step down and out.
 Leleyier's arrest was made here by United States Marshal Daniels, acting under instructions from Ator- ney General E. S. Clark, who re ceived his orders from Governor Kib- bey. the latter having been requested by the Mexican government to arrest LelevieT on a charge of larceny. His son.

WHITE PLAGUE KILLS MISS
 SHARKEY
Popular Young Woman, We'll Known in CochiSe County Dies in California After Two Years of Suffering.
Especial to Review.b


 TOMBSTONE. Aug. 5.-Adviees nouncing the death of Miss Bessie day. Miss Sharkey was raised
 Tombstone and spent the early part of her childhood days in this city.
 She had reached the age of 27 years. Miss Sharkey was well known throughout the territory and hun dreds of friends in Cochise county who will regret to hear of her death
 The following from the Phoenix Re
 publican will be read with interest
 by the young lady's many friends in
 the county:
 The greater part of her life hav- ing been spent in Phoenix with her
 aunt, Mrs. w. E. Mcfarland, with whom she had liyen since infancy,
 when her mother, a sister of Mrs. Mcfarland. died and to whom she be- came more than a daughter Pre-
 vious to coming to Phoenix her uncle and aunt resided in Virginia City, New, and later Tombstone. | Miss Sharkey passed through the city schools and became a teacher in i them about ten years ago. She quickly took high rank, but her application
 to her duties was so intense that her
 naturally robust health was overcome. |. Two years ago she was broken down from overwork and consump- 1 tion developed. A year ago she was granted a leave of absence for year | in the hope that change of scene
 and climate might restore her health. This hope, however, was not shared by Miss Sharkey..
 she left Phoenix accompanied by Mrs. Mcfarland They remained
 awhile with the family of Hon. Mike Gray, an uncle at Pearce, Arizona.
 They went from there to Globe, after ward returning to Pearce. They went to Los Angeles at the time of the l fiesta last spring and for a short time there was improvement in her ] condition. and thence to the home of | her sister at Oroville.
 The only immediate relatives of | Miss Sharkey in this territory are her two brothers, electricians, who ! live Pearce. She leaves other broth
 CTS and sisters on the coast. From girlhood Bessie ShaTkey was a beautiful and most Fovable girl. The number of her warm friends exactly ecualled the number of her acquaint-
 ances and the number Of each equals those who mourn at the closing of
 her young life.
 While her friends were buoyed up 1 by the hope of her recovery she knew ! for the past year there was no hope. Yet in her letters her cheerfulness was untiring She was sustained by a | strong Christian character. She look ed with fortitude upon the wasting away of her life and uncompIainingly endured the steadily growing weak
 ness and pain

 ALLEN
Wife Did Not Like the Doings of Arthur Over in Lowell, but Her Aim Was Very Poor Has Sympathy
Review Branch. Telephone 6s.

Lowell, Aug. ,.
 Last evening about o'clock the loungers on the streets were startled by the report of a pistol shot which came from the rear of the old Hub saloon. Officer Gray. who happened so be near at the time, rushed to the scene and discovered Mrs. Arthur Allen, 8 hard-working washer woman, with a revolver in her hand. the of ficer placed her under arrest, after disarming her, and conveyed her to the branch county jail. Mrs. Allen refused to make any statement other than that she was sorry the shot did not take effect. It was ascertained later that the woman had been having trouble with her husband, who is much younger than herself, on ac- count of his fondness for other women,
 Seeing him, standing in front of the White House saloon about ' p. m. she approached him with the intention of speaking to him. He evidently anti eipated her intentions, for he immed- lately ran into the saloon and out the back way, this move or his part only resulted in a greater determination an her part to pursue her liege lord and ask for an explanation of such un- gentlemanly conduct. It is quite evi- dent Mir. Allen had never heard of the saying: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."
 When Allen made his getaway through the saloon Mrs. Allen started In pursuit. She was handicapped by having to run around the block. but at this she was better judge of dis tance than he was. for the reason that she caught him just as he was about to escape through an alley Upon be- ing told to stop that she wanted to speak to him, Allen increased his speed. At this juncture Mrs A. brought her trusty 45 into action and hlazed

 Jose Ramariez. a little sawed-off Mexican from the land of Manana, who is never satisfied unless he is boarding of of the county. was caught today sneaking out of the back door of a saloon with a new overcoat on his arm. Jose has contracted a very dis agreeable habit of packing of any, thing that does not weight more than ton. When arrested by Officer Humm. Ramariez had a long story to tell about a friend asking him to wear the coat for day Or two to break 1t in. but could not recall the friends name. Any one short an almost new coat from a clothing firm in Cripple Creek. can recover the same by ap- plying at the local justice court and proving property.
 The Iris Theater still continues to show to packed houses. The excel lence of the pictures shown in con nection with Harry Lorains' singing, the Loweiiites have shown their hearty appreciation by the liberal pa tronage at each performance. Owing to the scarcity of carpenters the stage which the management expected to have completed at the opening night has been delayed. Mir. McKen- zie states everything will be in full working order by Wednesday night. The management is also considering the matter of having band play in front of the theater one night In the week, in this connection the business houses on the street are also thinking seriously of arranging with one of the local bands to furnish music every night in the week from till ?. m., providing suitable arrangements can be made to that effect.

cities have made many announcements
of it to their readers.

The Briqht Firstborn.

They were discussing the law of en-
tail-the English law bequeathing tho
bulk of the family property to the
eldest son.
There is so per cent. of logic in
that law" said physician, land if the
family property went to the firstborn,
whether son or daughter, the law
would contain 100 per cent of logic.
For the first born child is practically
always the best-best in brain, in
build, in beauty, in everything.
why is this SO? 1t is because mar
ried people love one another more pro-
foundry at the beginning than after
ward; for love, like all things, grows
old, grows weak, often dies.

So were Joseph Chamberlain, Lord
Kitchener, Max Muller, Henry Irving,

The man who makes two blades of
grass grow where only one grew be-
fore was long ago pointed out as de-
serving well of his fellow creatures,
but if distinction is due to such a
one, what, asks the Chicago News,
shall be said of the man who develops
a race of hens that would habitually
lay more than one egg a day? Surely
no tribute of honor and gratitude
could be too great for such a one.
Prof Gilman A. Drew of the Univer-
sity of Maine may be the one to whom
such debt will eventually be paid, for
he has been conducting studies and ex-
periments which lead him to believe
that there is no biological reason why
a hen should not lay more than one
egg day. This being true it follows
that the same American enterprise
which increases the quantity of all
other agricultural products will be
turned to the hen and compel her to
do her full duty. A hens time is of
no value in other directions, and if
she can occupy what has hitherto been
idle leisure in producing more eggs,
then no laziness on her part should be
permitted. She should have no after
Moons off. The eyes of the world are
now expectantly fixed on Drew and
the further results of his experiments.
