WHOLE WEEK OF DISASTERS ON
 SANTA FEE.

The past week has seen more se- rioas accidents to Santa Fe trains on the coast lines in New Mexico and Arizona than for several months pre- vious. The derailment of eleven cars of passenger train No. s Saturday night near Bluewater, was the culmin- ation of a succession of almost daily disasters.
 Friday morning passenger train No. l had a head-on collision with extra freight S32 near Gonzales, New Mexico. Both engines were demolished, both trains wrecked and eight persons were more or less painfully hurt on the passenger train.
 On the preceding Sunday night east bound passenger train No. struck a ight engine near Ash Fork The train was hitting off a fast clip round ing curve down the grade to Ash Fork when the engineer suddenly saw 8 freight train standing on the main line. He jammed On the brakes and the passenger train broke in two pieces, behind the smoker. The bag gage and mail cars and smoker fol- lowed the engine as it dashed into the
  the passenger train was demolished and passengers in the smoker were badly shaken up. The sudden stop page of the rear half of the train in jured several persons badly, including a soldier. The presence of mind or the engineer averted a terrible dis aster. It is said the freight had no flag out to warn the on-coming pas senger. The engine of the freight was badly smashed up.
 The trucks of the mail car of west bound passenger train No. ? jumped the track at the cinder pit at Winslow on Thursday. and the train was de iayed for several hours.
 i A doubIe-header freight went off the track at Qucrido. west of Gallup, one day during the week, one of the big en- zines and nine cars going into the ditch, the cars being practically de stroyed. Tc complicate matters, the wfecker, with Superintendent Gibson car attached, started out of Winslow in the night. the engine died between Winsiow and Querido. and an employe had to walk a mile, cut in on the wires and order a new engine
 Sunday a week ago four ecx ears were demolished in wreck -t Hc' DeIlan, eight miles west of Williams, and the track was blocked for several hours.

MYSTERIOUS TN BOX GONE;;
 II HOLDS nISER'S VALUABLES

A tin box which is believed to con, tain thirty shares of c. & A. stock other yaluables and perhaps a will, is missing from the effects of Epherm Murley, who died at the c. & A. hos pital Sunday evening. Charles Mad dern, appointed administrator of the estate, is making every esort to locate the box. He has the key. it being found in Murley's pocket when he was taken to the hispital.
 Murley lived alone in an old adobe hut on the Naco road, just below the Copper Queen magazine. No one knew much about him, as he lived a solitary life. That he was a miser and an eccentric is the statement made by those who knew him best. In his dingy hut Murley passed all his time when not working as keeper of the c. & A. change room. He did his own cooking. No light was ever seen in his hut at night.
 Ed Hooking, Murley's next-door neighbor, was the last man and per- haps the only one who saw the mys- terious tin box. He said that some time after Murley returned from Hot Springs, Arkansas, and prior to his death, he was passing the house, and out of curiosity he stepped to a win dow and through it's dirty glass he saw the tin box sitting on a table, while Murley was apparently perusing some certificates.
 c. S. Hicks. Undertaken McArthur and J. S. McNish made a visit to the adobe hut Sunday evening after Mur- ley's death, to search for any valuable papers. money or jewelry that might have been left in the house. They found nothing. The doors were locked and there were no signs that any one had been in the house since the day Murley was taken to the hos pital. This only added mystery as to what had become of the box. Be ieving that possibly Murley had a se- cret place, either in the walls or under the floor, where it was hidden, Mr. Hicks, together with Charles Maddern,

SUSPICIOUS HOUSES EXAMINED FOR DISEASE Acting City Physician Spends Afternoon on Chihuahua
 HiiI, Finds No Cases,

It seems from the result of an in vestigation which was made yesterday into conditions on Chihuahua Hill that many of the reports which have been circulated lately to the effect that there were cases of scarlet fever. diph- theria and smallpox among the Mexi- can residents of that section of the city which had not been reported to the city. were due entirely to a nerv- ous temperament on the part of the eireulatoF, because 10 traces of the disease can be found.
 Ever since scarlet fever broke out in the city, a couple of months ago, there have been varied reports from all sources In regard to cases of the disease, which on investigation were found to be erroneous. A few days ago the report got started, that there were several cases of diphtheria on Chihuahua Hill, which the Mexicans were hiding for fear of being quaran- tined
 Yesterday afternoon the acting city physician started at that section of the hill, in the rear of the Pythian Castle, and examined the houses under suspicion, spending most of the after noon in the work, but was unable to find any one suffering from the dis eases.

 As one of the earliest miners in the camp Murley came here from Calumet. Michigan. It was his boast that he showed Thomas F. Cole where the copper was at the c. & A. shaft.

Woman steps sermon to Renounce
 Game iR Which Sic Exccis

DIES MONIES, Jan. 10.-Bsfore a congregation of nearly a thousand persons, and while the preacher was in the midst of his sermon, Mrs. A. B. Sims, society woman and holder of the national woman's whist cham pionship. arose this mornin gin the University church of Christ and de- nounced card playing as a sin.
 Mrs. Sims is one Of the most prom inent women of the city. For many years she has been an active member of women's clubs which affect whist and other card games. Two years ago Mrs. Sims won the first prize for women in the whist tournament helG at Cleveland. Last year at St. Louis she won the national woman's cham pionship.
 It is said that recent evangelical meetings held in the city are respon- sible for the change in Mrs. sims ideas. She attended all of these meet ings. which lasted for three weeks and since that time has come to the conclusion that all card games arc wrong.
 During the service this morning Mrs. Sims inpuIsively stood up and renounced card games forever. Her friends in the congregation who knew Of her pride in her wi'ist trfunpbs, gasped in amazement She had told no one of her intentions.

MRS. TEMPLE |S DEAD IN
 NACO
After a Long Illness Young Married Woman SuccumbS
 to Dread DiSeaSe-Prepara-
 tionS for Funeral Are Made.

After long term of suffering from an incurable disease, during which time she exhibited degree of fortitude that is seldom met with, Mrs. H. J. Temple, wife of H. J. Temple, super road, passed away yesterday morning at her home in Naco, surrounded by her relatives, on whom the burden of grief will rest heavy.
 A couple of years ago, when Mrs. Temple was only a girl, and was ta- ken III, the physicians who were called Ito attend her were forced to make known the fact to herself and husband that the young woman was suffering from an incurabIe disease.
 That the blow contained in the knowledge imparted to them by the physicians was such as oftentimes un- seats the reason of a human being is apparent from the desperate efforts that have been exerted to overcome the dreadful disease. The most emi- nent medical authorities in the United States were consulted, every course of treatment which promised the slightest relief was resorted to, but gradually the strength of the young woman failed, in spite of all medicine and medical skill, until the end which was expected came yesterday morning.
 Even though it had become appar- ent long before death that there was no hope of recovery, and that tie end would come in a short time, the grief of those who knew the deceased was none the less poignant.
 Mrs. Temple was 25 years of age.
 The body will be shipped to Benson today on a special train, attended by members of the Masonic lodges at Bis bee, Douglas and Naco. The Rev. Harvey M. Shields will conduct the funeral ceremonies
