AS COURIER MAN
 SEES MIR. HITCHCOCK
Thinks He Might Easily Be Mistaken for a Oem-
 OCrat,

The following breezy account Of the presence of First Assistan; FostmaG- ter General Hitchcock at Prescott last week is taken from the Prescott Cur fer:
 As the Courier man vas passing the Capt. Wm. O'NeiII Rough Rioer monument yesterday and pondering on the innate stupidity and cusSed- ness of men who will keep cn voting for the high tariff political doctrine that takes dollars from the pockets of the many to place them in the cof- fers of the few, he noticed his old young friend, E. A. Haggott and sev- eral other distinguished looking men examining the monument. He shook hands with Mir. Haggott and was in- trOduced to no less a parsonage than First Assistant Postmaster General Hitchcock, of the United States of America, who is here from Washing ton, D. C., to look up postal depart ment matters. MT. Hitchcock is man of commanding appearance and pleasing address, who might be easily mistaken for a democrat He was evidently admiring the monument and oeANF AA nOulA oALEdNb dt- tention anywhere as a work of art As MT Hitchcock comes from Wash ington, where monuments are to be seen on every hand, he has the oppor- tunity to judge by comparison, which many of us have not; and that he thinks so well of the Rough Rider monument comes as expert opinion and is most gratifying The Courier man also had the pleasure of an intro ductlon to W. s. Sturgis, who Is the republican national committeeman of this colonial dependency of the na- tional administration, and who is ac- companying MT. Hitchcock around the territory probably to keep the demo crats from converting him to the true political faith. The party took the train out of Prescott last evening for the Grand Canyon.

MEERAN LOSES ID
 O'BRIEN IN CONTEST
Most Exciting Game Ends With Close SCore-Bran-
 son Beats Christian

Last evenings games in the pool tournament at the Elks' Club resulted in the defeat of Meenan and Christian by O'Brien and Branson, respective ly. The first game was the occasion of much enthusiasm, owing to the fact that only two points separated the two players when the balls were framed up for the last time.
 Meenan and O'Brien started to play shortly after o'clock, both men hay ing handicap of ten points. During the first portion of the game O'Brien secured a lead of sixteen balls, and it looked very much as if he would win an easy victory. About this time, however, Meenan settled down into the game, and by a succession of short runs, overlook the lead. From this time on there was never a difference of more than four and five points be- tween the scores of the two contest ants, the last frame opening up with Meenan at 91 and O'Brien at S9. The former tried a difficult shot, scatter ing tI:S balls and missing. O'Brien then ran the game out.
 The second game was to have been between Dr. E. W. Baum and A. J. Branson, but the physician was called out on professional business, and his place in the tournament was taken by J. P. Christian. The contest was lack ing in interest, owing to the fact that Christian was completely out of form, and proved an easy victim for Bran son, who , played a steady game throughout
 This evening Browning (95) and Neylan (90) will play the first game, while the second will be between Pat, | tison C90) and Cummings (90).

 When told of the fact that his nephew, Affarian, was now undergoing Imprisonment in Turkey, for murder which was matched in Chicago, he merely smiled and said he knew noth- ing of it.
 The police believe that in Guragian they have captured one of the heads of the murder committee" and othez statements made by members of rival organizations lead them to believe that the other members of the organiZa- ton who had a direct hand in order ing the murder of Trayashanijian will be in custody. One of these men is known to be out of the city, but it is said that his whereabouts was be trayed by a disgruntled Armenian of rival faction.
 The king" of the local Armenians Joe Jechian, Is said to be the man who revealed the inner workings of the new Hunchakists. As result his life has been threatened by members of the organization and he has turned over these letters to Chief Shippy and asked for protection.

HARTMAN LINES
 WORKING 5000 MEN
News Reaches Chihuahua Con- Ceming Construction Work
 on Sonora Coast Line.

CHIHUAHUA. Mex, Aug. 21.-John Y Baskin who has just returned from the Sonora and Sinaloa coast, reports great progress on the Hartman coast line. Track is being laid from Maya joa south to San Bias to connect with the Stilwell road, eighty miles, two kilometers a day. It is expected to reach San Bias in October. From Navajoa to AlamOs, 60 kilometers, grading has been completed on the branch and track laying waits for finishing of concrete bridges. It will be finished by Nov. 1st. Sixty kilom- eters were laid in July on all lines From Corral, junction on the IaqUi River between the Guaymas-Guadala- jara main lines, 40 kilOs have been laid along the north side of Yaqui River northeast towards Tonochi where it is believed connection will be effected with the Sierra Madre & Pacific from Fl Paso. In Sinaloa 60 kilos have been graded both north and south of MaZatlan. Capt. J. A Hinman. formerly with the Orient rail road is in charge at MaZatlan and E. A. Mcfarland, south of Guaymas. Charles Farnum. formerly with the Orient, and nephew of Col. F. S. Kirk land of Chihuahua, is resident engin- ger at Navajoa and Ed Ten Eyck on Yaqui River line. TenOchi will be reached in January.
 Five thousand men are working 300 Chinamen. 200 Russians and 400 Japanese and balance natives. Japs are poorest workers, Russians next and Chinamen third. Grant Bros, con- tractors, will add 5000 teams by Sep tembeT 1st, doubling force of men. They are now buying mules.
 Richardson Brothers of Los Angeles have ditch completed for their Esper- anza colony and are building houses 8 kilos south oi Corral on south side of river and large warehouses on rail road. Several California companies are working on irrigation projects in the Yaqui valley. In Sinaloa the Land company, Los Angeles com pany, has acquired vast tracts for col Onization. At Corral MT. Baskin saw car of watermelons averaging 40 pounds and going as high as 90. The crops this year. however, have sue ceeded only upon irrigated land, the rainfall being light and poor results being had in many paTts.J
 The Greene smelter at Guaymas, blown in three months ago, is closed temporarily and ore is being piled up. Rumor says it has been sold, but there is nothing definite known. Great mining activity is expected to follow the railroads extension.

SAYS LEAD WILL BE IN GREAT
 DEMAND
Expert Is Searching the Con- tinent for Mines to Supply New Demand for Mineral Because of Late Invention.

FL PASO, Aug. 21.-Count C. F. 2. Caracristi, the noted mining special ist and geologist, has been in this city for some days, after three months scientific work in the field.
 q am not at liberty to discuss by mission to Mexico, except to say that I have been instructed by large cor poratfon, whose nome is not new to the public, to investigate the general outlook for investments in mineral properties in Mexico. Silver-lead in particular has taken a large part of my time, but the expensive import duty against this commodity seems to offer one important point of resist ance against the exportation of this material into the United States.
 'The production of lead in the states, while it has shown some slight increase, has not kept abreast with the demand. and, consequently. high prices have resulted. am not break ing any confidenceial professional se- cret when I intimate that a new use for lead has been discovered, and that patents will be issued soon in every country that has a patent office. that will result in increasing the worlds demand for lead a hundred per cent perhaps even more. These lights will be held by powerful compahIes in the various manufacturing coLatties, such l as the United States, Eensian6, Ger. | many and France.
 My end of the business is sinp'y to report on the lead deposits and as soon as I am finished here l will pI 0. ceed to Chilli, the Argentine republic and Brazil
 q do not hesitate to staJe that lead has a great future and viii iargely le, place zinc and tin ln certain 5ranche s of the arts. More, am lot permitted to say.
 T feel that the Mexican mining boom has just now begun and that the developments of the next decade will astound even the most optimistic dreamer. Fl Paso will largely benefit by the great awakening that is being brought about by the able master brains of such men as MT. Stinwc!i and Col. Greene, whom I conside: the Cecil Rhodes of this country. Iitc re- wards that await the energy Of these men will stimulate others to mighty efforts in other sections of the United States and Mexico.
 As I see it, the outlook in Mexico is only hazed by the vast importance of the labor problem. This is the only stumbling block to the mining and industrial situation. There is plenty of labor in the republic, but the question of assimilating it to American ideas and standards is a problem too complex for my under standing. It seems that the Ameri- can employer either does not under stand or care to understand the pecu- liar susceptibility of Mexican labor. Perhaps the proposition should be re- versed. However, this may be. until the labor situation in this country is ameliorated, the proper development of the mineral industry upon such a scale as will give the maximum result is impossible"

BEWARE OF "DIGESTIvES. "
The Only Way to Cure Stomach Dis
orders is by Strengthening the
Digestive Organs.

The ordinary pepsin tablet has
ruined more stomachs than all other
causes combined. While it gives tenn
porary relief, it leaves the digestive
system weaker than eyer, and the tab
let's must be continued with increased
frequency.
The only way to permanently cure
stomach troubles is by Strengthening
the digestive organs with a Mi-o-na
stomach tablet taken before meals. In
this way the remedy prepares the stom-
ach for the food and excites the seere-
tons of gastric juices so that, when the
food is eaten, the stomach is prepared
to digest it.
If Mi-o-na was mere digestive, it
would be taken after eating, so as to
mix with the food, but then permanent
relief would not be gained.
Mi-o-na stomach tables are sold only
in neat metal box, convenient for the
purse or vest pocket, and cost but soc.
Dodson's Pharmacy has seen so many
cures made by Mi-o-na stomach tablets
4hat they give a guarantee with every
box that the money will be refunded if
the remedy fails to give satisfaction.
You run no risk in using Mi-o-na. for
you are sure to be cured at trifiing eX-
pense or else your money will be re-
funded.

by using it for eczema, and itching
hemorrhOids, from which l had been q
sufferer for many years. 1t was a con-
slant torment, day and night, and /

people were interested was the mar
riage of Miss Elizabeth Stevens to Mr..
John Amos King, which took place
Wednesday evening at the home of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. w. B.

the color motif was most effective in
pink and green were, Misses Anna
Stevens, Lucille King and Amy Evans.
Messrs A. L. Crittenden, Max Addy,
Brantley Stevens and Mr.. and Mrs
King.
The brides gown was lovely creation
of white silk tissue made princess. She

ATTORNEY PAXTON IN sAsrlLE
Former Americas Man Committed
to Jail.

Mr.. Claude Payton, who formerly
resided in Americas where he conduc-
ted barber shop in the Windsor Hotel
block, is doing ten days term in
Worth county Jail for contempt of
court. Since leaving Americas and the
art tonsOrial Mr.. Payton has been adj
mltted to the bar, and is now a member
of the legislature from Worth. In a
recent court case Messrs Payton and
Hays represented one Nipur, whose
wife had sued for divorce and had been
allowed alimOny by decree of the court.
This was not paid by Nipur, who was
arraigned before Judge Spence for de-
fault. Judge Spence sent him to Jail
under contempt order. Nipur's attor-
neys went before the judge of the city
court of Worth county and secured a
writ of habeas corpus on which their
client was released. Judge Spence i'm
mediately had Payton and Hays sum-
moned before him and after a brief ex
animation, ,adjudged both attorneys in
contempt, imposing a fine of $75 each
or ten days in jail, the lawyers decid-
ing to take the latter dose.

HOUSE FOR AMERIcUs
Such Enterprise is Much Needed
Here Now.

Another enterprise at which the
Americas Board of Trade might direct
it's efforts is packing house, the estab-
lishment of which would result in vast
increase in the amount of meat pro-
duced here, Just at present more than
two hundred thousand pounds of pork
in Sumter county smokehouses is in
more or less danger of spelling, due to
warm weather, all of which would be
safe if stored in packing house. Macon
merchants are already moving to the
end of securing a packing house for
their city, and those of Americas
should do likewise and have the enter
prise assured ere the coming of another
season.
