Big WRESTLER
IS A fAvORI7E

Young Hoyle the big, handsome
wrestler who is matched to meet
Bonura the Dago whirlwind, at the
Auditorium next Saturday night, is
very popular with the gentle sex-and
it is to be hoped that many ladies
will attend the match as nothing that
will offend them will be permitted.
They are assured no blood will be
shed or any serious mishap occur to
either wrestler.
For the benefit of those, not ac-
quainted with the wrestling game, It
may be wise to say "a word or two
just as to what wrestling is. The idea
! is for wrestler to make both of HI
opponents shoulders touch the ground
When he has succeed in getting the
upper hand and there are many diff
ferent scientific ways for wrestler
to get the best Of his opponent. Both
Hoyle and Bonura are splendid athe
letes and are the possessors of won
derful strength.
The men wrestle for the middle
weight championship of the South

Daily News Special.
Jackson, Miss, October 22.-Dr. B.
F. Ward, president of the state board
of health, has submitted to Governor
Vardaman the narrative portion of the
report of that body, which will be in
turn transmitted to the legislature. i,
Dr. Ward discusses at much length
cholera, smallpox, diphtheria, typhoid
| fever, the Importance of sewerage, tu-
berculosis and its treatment, and in
conclusion the following recommends
ton is made:
"This board, realizing the possible,
stubborn incredulity with which any
effort calling for the expenditure of
money will be received, both by the
people and their lawmakers, neverthe-
less ventures to suggest, as an initia-
tory step in this great work, the ap-
pointment of health officers in each
county on salaries sufficient to justify,
requiring them to give their entire
time to their public duties which are
now so imperfectly performed because
of inadequate compensation.
These officers should be appointed
by the governor upon the recommen;
dation of the state board of health
They should be selected solely upon
the estimate of their intelligence, ex
| cd, ;gtr ttx,<
capacity. They should be required tt
give short, lucid and practical lectures
to the people in every part of the
county as to the accepted and well de
fined methods of management AM
prevention, not only of tuberculosis
but of all other contagious and infec
tious diseases, to distribute printed
matter, employ the local press to al,
in disseminating information, and d
: such other things as might be outline
, and directed by the board of health
There should, of course, be estat
lished somewhere in the state ba,

clans and local health officers coul
submit specimens of spitum and othe
excretions so indispensable to a
early diagnosis which is of such Wit;
importance.

.FIGHT RESULTS IN KILLING OF MEXICAN
Jose Francisco Is Shot and Kill ed at Douglas by Jesus Ton calen In Dispute Over a Woman.
Special to Review.1


 DOUGLAS, June 12.--As the result of disagreement which sprang up between two Mexicans this afternoon Jose Francisco is dead, and his as- sailant, Jesus ToncaleD is confined In the county jail What caused the trouble no one knows, but it is beliey- ed that there is woman in the case.
 Yesterday about noon Jose Fran cisco and Jesus Toncalen started out together to visit the various saloons around town both having been paid lately, and in the course of a short time they were under the influence Of liquor. About 4:3O o'clock they left the saloons and started up town, reaching the corner of 9th street and H Ave, when they became engaged in wordy dispute which led to blows. While they were fighting Toncalen suddenly whipped out a knife and at tackled his opponent, inflicting two deep wounds in the chest. This did not seem to satisfy his bloodthirsty feeling, and drawing a six-shooter he shot the prostrate man through the heart.
 Leaving his victim for dead, Ton calen ran towards the international boundary line, and succeeded in crossing before he was intercepted. When he got to Agua Prieta num. Der of Mexicans who were in the town and heard of the occurrence or dered him to go back across the bor- der and face the consequences of his crime. For time he refused to com ply with the order, but was forced to do so, and as soon as he stepped into the United States territory he was placed under arrest by Deputy Sher- iff Clark who was waiting for him.
 In the meantime Francisco had gathered enough strength to drag himself about fifty feet to the door of a saloon; where he fell exhausted. He was picked up and taken to the Calumet & Arizona hospital, where he died this evening at s o'clock in spite of medical aid.
 Francisco was employed by the firm of Arthur & Pantell, black smiths. and enjoyed very good rep utation among the Mexicans and Americans. always conducting him self as a peaceable citizen
 Toncalen has always been unpopu- lar among his eountrymen. many or whom state that he always consider ed himself irresistible to the falr sex and had often made insulting re- marks to women.
 When seen at the county jail this evening and asked for an explanation of the killing Tonealen refused to ans wer any questions, but malntained surly silence.

s. ?. IS ACTIVE IN STATE IF
 SONORA
Preparation Under Way to Commence Grading Line West From Nacozari- Equipment Arriving,

That the Southern Pacific Railroad Company intends to prosecute the work of pushing line through Mexi- co to the seaport of Guaymas. Sono- ra, with all possible energy seems ap- parent from the extensive operations which will be in progress within the next few days in the vicinity of Naco- zari, from which point grading opera tiOns will be started to connect with the right-of-way now being construct ed from Guaymas in an easterly direc- ton.
 What lends color to the rumors that have been current for some time to the effect that in the near future the Southern Pacific would have di- rect connection with the Pacific coast in Mexico, is the fact that F. A Me Eariand, chief engineer for the South ern Pacific and Randolph IIl4es, mH4On are subsidiary companies of the liar riman interests, passed through the city last evening on his way to Doug las, and was accompanied by w. J. Burton. a member of the firm of Grant Brothers and Company, rail road contractors. Neither one of these gentlemen would give out any statement other than that they intend ed to spend a day or two at Douglas on business.
 It is known that arrangements have been made to ship 250 teams with the necessary equipment into Nacozari within the next few days to start the work of grading for the proposed line, the route of which has been staked out for several months past. Starting at NacoZari this line runs a short distance south of Cana nea. and thence in d general westerly direction to Guaymas. To grade the proposed right of way will undoubted- ly take several months, or very close to a year ..
 How the terminus at NacoZari will be connected with the United States no outsider can tell, as there has never been the slightest inkling given out by anyone who knew: Whether a new line will be constructed into Douglas and theRce north, or straight from Nacozari to Fl Paso. is indefi- mite, but these two routes seem to be the most logical

ATTEMPTS ID STEAL
 PURSE; IS CAUGHT
Bartender In Turf Makes a WouId-Be Roller Return
 Money to Owner

Early yesterday morning Officer OLaughlin was called hurriedly to the Turf saloon on Main street, and on his arrival there was informed that a
 man who gave his name as Caldean
 French Blake. which the authorities think an alias, had attempted to rob
 an old timer named Thomas Keegan, who was drunk and had considerable
 money in purse on his person.
 It seems that Keegan had been drinking in the house, and when pay ing for the refreshments pulled out
 of his pocket a purse in which were
 several gold pieces and some silver,
 amounting in all to something over $50. He had asked Blake to have q drink, and when the latter saw him pull the purse out. he had good view of the money. Shortly after they had been drinking together the bartender who was on shift noticed the two men wrestling,
 and noticed that Blake had secured
 the pocketbook. He yelled at him to return 1t at once. and then called for
 an officer O'Laughlin arrived on the scene and placed Blake under arrest
 on a charge of attempting robbery from the person, and also took Keegan
 along for disturbing the peace. and be- ing unable 10 take care of himself. When Keegan appeared in Justice Burdicks court yesterday morning he
 told the justice that he was SO drunk
 he could not swear positively whether the man had gone into his pocket and
 taken out the purse or not, he said
 that all he remembered was fighting i for possession of the purse, and the
 bartender making Blake return it. Whether Blake will be prosecuted
 on felony charge or not is undecided
 as yet

RARE MEXICAN PLANT
 GROWS IN PHOENIX

PHOENIX. Ariz.. June l2.-George H. Smith, the capitol grounds garden CT. has secured specimens Of another variety of the ToroJa, a plant lndl- genous to Mexico and growing to some extent in Arizona, which plant was given quite lengthy description few weeks ago when he secured specimens of the first variety. There are three varieties of the plant known and ne now has two of them and Is on the lookout for the third.
 The plant as remarked before, is shrub that with training might ap- proach the dignity of tree, though
 grows naturally in very bushy form. Ii is used by the Mexicans for medlcl- nal purposes and the Mexicans ID these parts are pleased to know that fl can be found here. The twigs or leaves are broken up and steeped and the tea thus secured is drunk as a remedy for stomach, blood and liver troubles. The twigs when broken ex' ude freely an oily and punSent Julce which is quite fragrant.
 II will be recalled that when the first plant was secured it was stated that a specimen had some time before been sent to Washington and the bot anists there had failed to c1assify 1t. This statement was hardly correct The botanists did furnish he plant with a name but IL was not accepted by local botanists at that time, who were acting on the authority of no- table German botanist who was then here and who is quite well versed on the plants of the southwest It is now learned that Dr. Kunze of this city was instrumental in sending the plant to Washington and he says that al though he has great confidence in the German professor who was here, he Is rather inclined to think he was mis- taken and that the Washington au- thorities are right in thsi particular classification. As there is no higher authority it is therefore likely that | this plant will stand by the name ol Bercera Microphylla. 1t Is surely a fine dignifed looking name in print and win be no disgrace to the modest i bush.
 This second variety was secured a few days ago by Mir. Smith and his assistant, P. Flores, in a trip to the Salt River mountains at point about | four miles east of where the othel variety was found. The two plants
 are very similar but there Is notice
 able difference in the bark. The lasi plant acquired has bark that peeis on like paper and the general appear ance of the trunk Is like the bark oi the Ocatiila cactus.

SHIRTWAlST INSPECTOR
 NAMED IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO. H., June I2.-A shirt waist inspector is the latest addition to the City Hall pay roll Just what the remuneration and the duties of the inspector are to be no one exact ly knows, but because Mrs. Ida Cross, No. 6242 WOodlawn avenue. is dis pleased with a G9-cent shirt waist she purchased at a State street depart ment store, the inspector was ap- pointed yesterday. Louis NJ. Feather stone, whose knowledge of the secrets of construction of the "peekabOO' and other shirt waists is said to be above reproaCh, is the first inspector"
 His appointment was made because Mayor Bussee and the other heads of the City Hall are too gallant to see one of the fair sex in trouble.
 Monday afternoon, being bargain day, Mrs. Cross purchased a shirt waist that attracted her attention in store. After taking it home her ideas changed, and she returned it and asked that he money be refunded. A polite refusal followed, with the ex- plan2tion that the waist was slight ly soled. Ii Mrs. Cross would pay to have it laundered the company would be glad to refund the differ ence. she was told.
 Appeals to the managers of the store proved fruitless; they gave the same reply. Having heard that Mayor Busse is a friend of those in trouble, Mrs. Cross told his her story and asked his aid.
 I will appoint a special shirt waist inspector" he exclaimed. Here Featherstone. you know all about shirt waists, don't you?"
 Surely" replied the unsnspicious Featherstone. "Peekaboo, fancy and plain. Linen, calico, or silk, Plait-- That's enough. You are now the official shirt waist inspector for the City of Chicago. Look into this.
