BRAVE OFFICER IS MURDERED BY
 COWARDS
Former Lieutenant Brooks of Arizona Rangers Is Ambush ed By MexicanS While Riding In Mountains and Killed.

According to story told by cous- in of former Lieutenant Brooks, of the Arizona Rangers, who arrived from Temosachic, Chihuahua, yesteruay, en route to La Cananea, Brooks was killed by band of Mexicans near Temosachic about ten days ago. Ac- cording to the story, Brooks was am pushed while riding in the mountains near Temosachic and completely rid dled with bullets. His body was not found for two days.
 Since leaving Sonora about eight months ago, Brooks has been in the employ of the Greene Gold-Silver Company as a guard for bank. A few days ago in a running fight with some Mexican bandits, Brooks killed one of the gang, and the remainder of the outlars swore to have BIOoks' life, in reyense for the loss of one of their members.
 Brooks was warned that his life was in danger and that the desperate characters were seeking an opportu- nifty to murder him. It is believed that Brooks intended to leave Mexico and return to Arizona, as letter re ceised by Captain Wheeler of the Arizona Rangers about two weeks ago stated that Brooks would be glad to return to the territory and taKs . place on the force again.
 The dead body of Brooks was dis covered after search of two days snd taken to Temosachic for burial.
 Brooks was given no chance for hi' life. He was ambushed as he rode along the trail and before he was aware of the presence of the out laws, they fired voliey from behind the rocks. Brooks was an officer at Naco for several months and was in the fight at Naco Sonora with Alvoro and stiles at the time Aivord was wounded and captured. Before com ing to Arizona Brooks was member of the Texas Rangers. He was a brave officer and the account of his murder will bs cause for regret in this section where he was well and favorably known.

MAYOR OF BISBEE
 LOST ON DESERT
0r. Cayen Misses Road to Tombstone and Lands In
 Gleason-lS Reticent.

When one of the good citizens of Gleason was aroused from his sleep at 2:18 a. m Monday morning by honk! honki of an automobile horn, he armed himself with a Winchester, thinking that there could be no one but burg lars abroad at that hour of the morn ing. He opened the door and to his surprise did not see a desperado. but desperate man in the person of Mayor Caven of Bisbee, who had start ed for Tombstone in his automobile. but had got on the wrong road, and after vain1y endeavoring to get his bearings, concluded to give up unti! day light.
 The mayor explained to the owner of the house that as he was accompa- nied by Mrs. Caven, and they did not start out prepared 10 camp, he found 1t necessary to ask for shelter. The kind citizen with real old Cochise county hospitality, made Dr. and Mrs. Caven comfortable for the night, and the automobile was put to bed in the barn.
 In the morning when starting time came the mayor thanked his host pro fusely, and stated that there was only one more favor he would like to ask, and that was that nothing would be said concerning the incident. Although the man promised, the frailty of hu- man nature was too great, and when the mayor arrived in Tombstone, bare ly in time to appear before the grand | jury and escape charge of contempt of court, he found a number of Bis
 beetles furnished with the details of his experience.
 ! The doctor arrived in the city yes i terday afternoon without any further
 unusual experiences as far as known,
 but when asked how he liked the desert around Gleason and vicinity as viewed by moonlight at g. m., he maintained an ominous silence.

PHOENIX GARDENER Is
 RELATIVE OF HERMANN
Says Many Statements About Former Commissioner
 Were Untrue.

PHOENIX, Arizona, April SO.-- J. H. Baker. the gardener Of the court house plaza at Phoenix, is a brother in-Iaw of Congressman Ringer Her mann, who was last week acquitted at Washington of the charge of destroy ing the public records of the general land office in the burning of his private letter books just before his retire ment from the commissiOnership of that office.
 Mir. Baker said that while he knew nothing of the main charge against Hermann, he knew that much that had been testified against him was un- true. For instance it had been stated that he had entered while commis- sioner, 30,000 acres of valuable land in Oregon. Mir. Baker said that Her mann had entered only 5000 acres of land which nobody else seemed to want, for the entry was made long after all the desirable land in that locality had been entered. It was not valuable land, but Hermann thought it might be converted into a stock range. He owned great deal of stock about coos Ray and he moved a lot of it to his 5000 acre tract, but he did not keep his cattle there very long for there was nothing there for them to eat. The land was dry and sterile, consisting for the most part, of hills.
 After holding the property for sev- eral years and paying taxes on it, he sold it for s2 an acre. It has cost him the government price of SIPS an acre to enter it. In all. the years he held it he derived no benefit or income from it and though he received seyenty-fiye cents more an acre than he paid for it that difference probably did not amount to as much as the taxes and other expense which had been incurred in the acquiring and holding of the land

DOUMA IS AGAIN IN DANGER IF
 DISSOLUTION
Radical Gets Floor and Makes Bitter Speech-Pfesident of Body Is HiSSed-Ministe Calls On Emperor

ST. PETERSBURG, April 30.-Lieu- tenant General Rudiger, minister of war, went to Tsarkoe. Sela, today to report to Emperor Nicholas concern ing the incidents in the Douma on Monday. The rumor is in circulation that he has persuaded the emperor to dissolve the chamber because of the attacks on the army. The session of the cabinet tonight, however, was oc- cupied with ordinary business, and one of the ministers said there is no doubt that the DouHa will re-assenible on May I3.
 The morning session of the Douma was stormy. Alexinsky, a Social Democratic member for St. Peters burg, said that the Socialists every where had refused to vote for the mili- tary budgets because the armies were used in the oppression of workers. He, resented the imputation that this was not patriotism, and said that if the German army Uhebugaboo used by Constitutional Democrats to pass the measure1 appeared at the frontier, the proletariat guard would be as willing to die in defense Of the fatherland as they are now to die fighting the tyrant. He charged the army with participat ing in the Jewish excesses.
 Alexinsky was repeatedly Cssiiiisda Co order and finally was denied the floor. At this the Social Democrats left the hall, and the Constitutional Democrats moved the closing of the debate.
 In the opening of the afternoon session the Social Democrats pro posed the discussion of a vote of Cen sure of M. GoIovin. the president. but GoloTin amid misses and cat-calls from the Left party ruled that criticism of the chair was out of order, and refused to recognize the radical speakers.
 The courtmartial bill was adopted without discussion. The reactionaries raised the point of no quorum and re fused to be counted as present. In the remaining half of the house. however, a bare quorum was found to be present and the measure passed. There is no possibility of it's becoming law.
