Attempted Murder and Suicide.

Last Sunday morning, near Signal, !,
 Roberto Valencia shot and dangerously
 wounded John Eshom. While the de-
 tails are meager, it would appear that
 there has been some friction between
 Eshom and the Mexican over woman named Tula Leivas. Sunday morning Valencia overlook Eshom, as the latter was on the way to the home of a Mex ican woman who was caring for the little child of Eshom, and pulling his gun fired three shots, two of which took effect in the latter's body, one in the right side and the other in the left. Valencia then went to Signal, eluding the officer, and shut himself up in the house of the Leivas woman, where he shot himself through the head, dying instantly. At the last term of court Tua Leivas had John Eshom cited to appear in court and show cause why he should not give up the custody of the child of Tula Leivas and John Eshom, it being represented that the child was of tender years and needed mothers care. Judge Sloan made an order placing the child in the custody of its grandmother. Esh- om was going to see the child when set upon and shot by Valencia.
 The wounded man was brought to Kingman yesterday and was able to walk around, although suffering some pain. One of the bullets from Valen- cia's pistol struck him in the left side ia front passing out at the back seven inches from the point of entry. The other bullet entered the right side | and passed out at the back, three inches from place of entry. There is no danger from the wounds, unless blood poison supervenes.

kingman Is Celebrating.

! The people of Kingman are cele- brating the Fourth of July in good old fashioned way. Yesterday saw the opening of the two days celebra- ton and the people were astir early to l get their moneys worth of the doings. The town was fairly we'll decorated with bunting, flags, tricolors, and evergreens. The streets were sprin- kled and the dust well laid shortly after daylight, which made the busi ness part of the town very inviting A band concert drew the crowd to the streets and shortly thereafter the free carriages began gathering up the peo- pie and transporting them to the ball grounds. where the racing, etc., were to take place. In the relay race Clar- ence Wilson won the purse, while the straightaway race of 800 yards was won by the Bonelli horse. In the af- ternoon there was ball game between Goldroad and Kingman, which was won by Kingman by a big score, the Goldroad boys being unable to connect with the sphere at any part of the game. The dance Tn the evening was well attended and the day was wound up in an enjoyable manner.
 This morning, after the band con- cert the days festivities began at the grand stand with a hundred yard sprint. There were four entries, Frank Waller of Goldroad winning hahdily, Jerome Carrow second.
 In the fat mans race there were three entries, railroad man winning.
 l.. Hoffman was the winner in the old mans race.
 The most exciting race of the day was the woman's race. There were three entries, Mrs. Frank Dryden, the Misses Lucy Wilkins and Bessie Mensch. The horse ridden by Mrs Dryden won out by nose from Miss Wilkins. Considerable money changed | hands on the result of this race.
 The bronco busting was won by Fred Cohenour, there being but two participants in the event.
 The flag race found but four partici- pants, but only one flag was recovered by the riders. A young Mexican boy from the Big Sandy accomplished this feat, but while in the act of picking | up another flag his horse stumbled and he was thrown to the ground, | while the horse turned a summer sault. The young lad was somewhat skinned up about the face but was otherwise unhurt.
 As we go to press services are be- ing held in the hall and there will be a ball game between Needles and King man this afternoon.
 The drilling contest will also take place this afternoon.

HITS THE HIGH PLACES
PRICE OF NEW WHEAT PROMi-
SEES TO GO SOME.
Best Under Like Conditions in Fifteen
Years;'ls Eight Gents More
a.. Than Last Year. ,,.r.,

Minneapolis, Aug. H.-Sew- wheat
will come on, the market not less than
81 bushel, the highest price paid
under prevailing conditions in fifteen
years, according to George F. Bios
som, general manager of George G.,
Christian & Co.,. merchant ,millers. ,n...
Mr.. Blossom received the, first sam
pie of the new wheat yesterday and
made the above market forecast while
testing it. The new product was grown
in South Dakota and was said to LEX
excellent from q, milling standpoint It
graded No. 2 northern 1- YeJ4o 9W
In regard to the price that hwill pre-.
vail when the new wheat 5eomes on
the market, Mr., Blossom ssid:f!. 81 ex-,
pect the price to be not a. cent less
than 81 when the new prS6duct comes
in. This will mean the highest price,
paid in fifteen years under the pres
ent conditions This is s cents higher
than we paid a year ago, 25 cents
more than we paid two Years ago.
'In 1904 the price of new wheat was
the same as | expect it to be this
year, but this was due to the scare
of scarcity in the crop by frost.
With the present outlook for a good
crop the price this year is the highest
that it has been in years and remark
able in many ways"
! Mr.. Blossom attributes the cause Of
the high price. expected on new wheat
due to the fact that every milling
concern in the country is unusually
low in it's stock of old wheat.
In regard to the coming crop, Fl. P.
Gallaher, general manager of the North
western Consolidated mills, said: "New
wheat is going to be up in the sky.
1t has been good many years since
the price of this commodity has beel
as high as I expect the coming crop
to be. do not think that it will
open below the dollar mark from pres
ent Indications"
