WAS STARVING TO DEATH WHEN
 FOUND.
(From Thursdays Daily)
K. c. W.

After living for the greater part of five weeks without any food, with the exception of few quail and jay birds that he shot and consumed raw, his lips green from chewing brush and foliage of different kinds, his raimcDt in a tattcrcd condition and himself al- most n physical and mental wreck, w. W. Bryson was found in his mining camp, in the Black Canysn district, by W. F. Murphy, Sunday, and brought to the hospital here, Monday, by Deputy sheriff John Merritt, suffering greatly from nal alnutrition.
 Bryson is over 75 years of age, and has been n resident of this county for the past thirty years, living the greater portion of the time in the immediate vicinity of his present camp, where he was found in such n dcplorable condi- | ton. When found he informed Mir. Murphy that he had lived for the past five weeks on n few quail and jay birds I mon ncccssarics of life during the cn. tire time.
 An examination of his cabin showed the absence of any flour, beans or bacon or any of the other nccessaries of life, not even trace of food being left.
 Some years ago, Bryson sold the mine near where he was found, receiving n large amount of the purchase price. After spending this money, Bryson failed to receive the final payment, and the property reverted back into his possession.
 He returned to the camp, and until obliged by his aged and feeble condi' ton to abandon work, had operated it l8 an unpretcntious way, making cx' penscs from the sale of the ore. When his health gave way, he was forced to quit work, and being without funds was slowing starving to death when found. He lived alone, being somewhat of n hermit.
 It is said that the old man is men. tally unbalanced on the subject of re. ligion and should he recover from his recent experience he may be sent to the asylum at Phoenix.

SELECT NOMINEES FOR SPECIAL
 ELECTION.

Since Governor Kibbey issued the proclamation calling for n special cleo. ton to he held in Mohavc county to select n Councilman to fll the place made vacant by the death of Hon. Patsy r. Collins, said election to take place Wednesday, January ?, there has been much interest displayed among local and other politicians as to who the nominees would be.
 It is now learned that Judge W. c. Blakely has been selected by the Re. party's nominee for the Territorial Council, and that the Democratic Cen. tral Committee has selected Kcan St. Charles, editor of "Our Mineral Wealth." as their nominee.
 The Democratic majority in .Mohavc county has always been somewhat large, but the Republicans occasionally secure n pretty big slice, and they have hopes of doing so at the special elec. tion. Judge Blakely is n good, sound man, and is wanted in the Council by Governor Kibbey, the worst way. Be. tween the Republicans and the dis. gruntlcd Democrats, of which it is al. logged there arc a number in Mohave county, it is expected that the Judge will land the office.
 St. Charles, however, has the al. vantage of living in Democratic county, and states that he has small fear of the result. The fight has al. ready begun and it promises to de- velop into warm one before the polls at the special election close.
 Speaking of Judge Blnkely's candi. dncy, "Our Mineral Wealth." St. Charles paper, says:
 "The Judge is their bulwark of strength, cxVpt the disgruntled Demo crntic factions, that they depend upon to fight their battle for them and to furnish the vote to down their own candidate. Their line of battle is for every Republican to constitute himself committee of one to assist certain Democrats in downing St. Charles. They hope to rustic to the polls nll their force, while depending on the Bryan Democrats to be lukewarm and not come out and vote. It is up to the Old Guard, whether this well.laid scheme will work all one way or not.
 Nothing can or will be said against Judge Blakely. He is n good citizen and ncighbor. He is wanted badly in the Council by Governor Kibbey, and il is the duty of Republicans to put him there, but if is not the duty of Demo erats to aid them land the opposition cargo"

 Little of the particulars could be learned but it Is known that he was suddenly taken ill in his office al his comphny's camp, a short distance from Harrington, and aftcr falling to the floor unconscious, expired before relief could reach him.

The bill providing for the
shortening of the deer season
from twenty to fifteen days dur
ing November is meeting with
all kinds of opposition and has
in reality stirred up a hornet S
nest. Some localities claim it
would be dangerous to human
life to shorten the season as so
many hunters would be out
those fifteen days. Others think
the law should be repealed and
people allowed to hunt deer any
time of. the year as they are a
hindranee to settlers by eating
up crops and the settlers not
daring to kill them, etc.
Here in Villas county where deer
are more plentiful than in any
county in the state, people favor
the fifteen day plan and also
think that nonresident hunters
should be allowed but one deer
each, instead Of two as the law
