ing. Accordingly, it is not claimed
that Syrup of Figs and Elixir Of
SIENNA is the only remedy OF known
value, but one of many reasons why
it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal
organs on which 1t acts without any
facilitating after effects and without
having to increase the quantity from
time to time.
It acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all
Objectionable substances. To get its
beneficial effects always purchase the
genuine manufactured by the Cali

stripped from the middle upward and
whipped till the body is bloody" Four
pence each was the recognized charge
made by the ''whipman" for every
male and female vagrant who passed
through his hands, but on special occa-

During the long drought of last
spring, In Mauritius. a singular spec
tacle, amid the stretches of dying and
desiccated plants, was presented by the
white flowers of giant aloe stems, which
sprang up on the mountains and over
the waste lands with amazing speed. At
the time of Towering, shafts as thick
as mans arm shot up from the heart
of the plants, grew from ~ to 1S inches
in twenty-four hours, and reached n
height of 30 feet. A cluster Of aloes

With Which to Let Himself Out of the
Crazy House-Ranks with Shrewdest
Criminals of the Day.

PHOENIX, October l0.--To escape
being taken TO Cochise county to be
tried for forgery, John Skaggs, an in.
mate of the insane asylum, unlocked the
door of his cell, and one leading out of
the ward, getting away.
Two days ago Skaggs displayed n
roll of greenbacks to one of the inmates.
and this he will probably use in making
his way out of the territory to escape
criminal prosecution in Coehisc county.
Skaggs has already taken rank as one
of the shrcwdest criminals in Arizona.
He was brought to the asylum from
Tombstone after he had convinced 4
jury there that he was insane. He was
at the time under indictment for for.
gerry.
In his cell Skaggs by his clever act.
ing convinced several people that he
was insane. He was brought to the
asylum and since then has been as sane
as any other man in Arizona.
Sheriff Jack White was to come to
Phoenix shortly to take charge Of
Skaggs and return with him to Tomb
stone. 1t is believed that Skaggs
learned of this, secured funds from a
brother in Kentucky, and with outside
help secured keys with which he was
able to unlock two doors and relock
them after him
Several years ago Skaggs killed
Charles Clark at Camp Verde. He was
given a trial at Prescott and on the
plea of self defense was acquitted. Lat
er he came to Phoenix. committed for
gerry, went to Tombstone and committed
another. He is now wanted in both
Cochise and Maricopa counties.
Skaggs is believed to have headed for
Cave Creek. his tracks in that direction
being found by the asylum attendants
this morning. Several men have taken
the trail and are following him in the
direction of Cave Creek. He is believed
to be headed for the Verde valley.
