Fighting Economic Laws.

Philadelphia Record.
II is no accident or chance that building
materials are a little cheaper and building
operations are increasing. The cheapening
of materials is chiefly in brick, lumber and
stone. But structural steel has been slightly
reduced, and the demand for It has in
creased slightly. A more substantial reduc-
ton would probably have caused a more
substantial increase in the demapd. The
theory of the steel corporation and of a
professor in the field of economies that
price does not effect consumption is one of
the most remarkable that has been put
into circulation.

 Sonora's Governor

And now it is said that there'll be no open gambling in Agua Priets- that is, there'Il be none fl those who are in a position to know make TO mistake in their reckoning. While the Agua Prieta officials would not object to the granting of concessions applied for by Douglas persons, be- cause of shortage of cash on that side of the line, due to the late American striugency, it is confidently believed that Governor Torres will never give his sanction to the gambling vice as an established institution in the border town over the line.
 It has been the consistent policy of Cover nor Torres to expunge gsmbling z and those who know him assert that TO passing financial depression vii! cause him to swerye from this policy in the least.
 A report has since come from Doug las to the effect that the concession
 was granted, but the same has not yet been suthoritstively confirmed.

When this tube is ipflamed you have . rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal co.ditioo, hearing will be de ,troyed forever; nine cases out of ter are caused by Catarrh, which is noth ing but an inhsmed condition of thu mucuous surfaces.

A Tombstoner's
 Fate is Feared

Has David Mitchell been the victim
 of the. Yaquis, or has he been un- e1pectedly delayed in his trip to So-
 nora' is the question that is upper
 moet in the minds of bis many friends here, on account of his non-return and the fact that no word has been received from him.
 Dave Mitchell left Tombstone on the morning of the 18th of January to go into the state oi Sonora iu the vi- einity of Arispe to examine copper property, expecting to be gone week
 x ten days. He wac joined at Here ford by,Chsrles Gerdes, the well known 9isSee and Huachucs mining man, and were driven across the country to the property to be examined. The property was in the mountains east of Arispe. This section of the country has usually been free from the depre- datious of the Indians until the past six month. when they extended their field and have, during the past few weeks, been operating in this locality.
 Mitchell was we'll acquainted with that section of country, having been located there for number of years, engaged in mining, and there is no apparent reason why he should have been delayed. He expected to return within the time mentioned and there now seems to be little doubt but what he and his party have met death at the hands of the Ysquis.
 If no word is received from the party during the next few days a party will be fitted out to try and endesvor 10 locate the missing men.
 A Mexican was also to join the two miners at Arispe, and he may have also become 6 victim.

Finding Body May
 Clear Mystery

Another chapter Is added to the Fsirbank mystery of several months since when a mysterious stranger with a horse and buggy met passen- ger who alighted from the s P train at the junction town, and together | left for the Whetstone Mts. osteu- sibly to examine mine. The buggy and horse was found few days after and evidences of foul play suspected because oi blood stains found on the buggy and tell-tsle evidences of a struggle. Neither of the two men have since been seen alive and no trace or clew has been found by the officers to shed any light upon the identity Of the men or unravei,, the mystery.
 Yesterday Robert Renter was in the city and reported the finding of the body of A man near the Santa Cruz county line. From appearance of the deceased 1t Is thought he .had been dead a month or more and it is now believed 10 be none other than the passenger who arrived on the iated day at Fsirbsnk. The only clew to such a theory is the clothes found upon the dead man. The grewsome discovery was also made that the man was murdered since his skull was fractured from behind.
 The authorities at Nogalss were notified and 8 coroner's jury was summoned to investigate the case. |. is hoped some clew may be found to learn of the identity of the murder ed man and lead to the arrest of his sssailant.
