was seen padding his canoe at a

calmed himself he declared to other
natives on the beach that he had seen
and had been challenged by lone
white bare-footed figure of a female
on an uninhabited- island.

Mexico. He was on his way to the
Pilares Mine with cars laden with
provisions, machinery and blasting
powder to be used by the miners.
The train was halted at Nacozari, a
mountain town, when brakeman
called out that car was on fire.
Garcia took one look at the populous
town, and realized that an explosion
would destroy many lives and wreck
the town buildings. Perceiving that
it was impossible to extinguish ths
flames before they reached the pow
der, he resolved to run the train
tato the open country. Forcing his
brakeman to quit the train, he threw
open the throttle and the engine was
soon rushing at it's utmost speed out
of the town limits. The train cleared
the limits of the town before the ex-
plosion came. Garcia's body was
blown to fragments and twelve
miners who had fiocked to the rails
to witness the spectacle of the burn
ing train were also killed. The win
dows of every house in Nacozari were
broken by the explosion, but thanks
to the prompt self-sacrifice of the
noble engineer, no one was hurt. The
people of the town have reason to be
thankful that in the emergency the
train was in charge of man who
cared more for their safety than for
his own life. Like Him of whom it
was said, "He saved others, but Him
self He could not save" he laid down
his own life that others might live.

GOOD RAINS REPORTED
 IN NORTHERN ARIQOAA
Stock and Wool Growers Are .JubiIant Over the
 DoWnpour

Mondays and Tuesdays rains ap- pear to have been general all over northern Arizona, says the Journal Miner. Passengers who arrived here yesterday from Phoenix state that the Salt River valley was visited by a downpour lasting over an hour. Monday night, and that several heavy showers fell yesterday on the desert south Of Wickenburg. Heavy snow CTS also fell at midday in the Con gress and Hillside sections. Parties from Ash Fork, stated last night that the storm was general north of here. Snow fell in the higher attitudes, but not enough to interfere with min ing operations.
 The storms were especially wei come to the stock interests. The desert was almost barren of grasses and feed on the mountain ranges is being eaten out fast by the herds of cattle and floeks of sheep confined to the higher attitudes on account of the scarcity of water on the mesa and desert ranges
 Sheep owners assert that there will be plenty of feed on the desert of southern Yavapai and northern Mari copa counties in the next ten days and that it will not be necessary to confine ewes during the lambing season to the mountains where the cold causes a more or less loss of lambs. h the main the fiocks have not suffered any on account Of the drouth. Rhe outlook is that there will be more sheep shipped from Yavapai county this year than at any time in its history.

INSURANCE MEN FORM PARTNERSHIP MeGregor 6 CIemons. Open Of fees on Main Street Sat \
 urday for Business.

Yesterday morning McGregor 6 Clemmons, the well known local agents of the New York Life Insur- ance Company, opened their offices over the Ball & Bledsoe drug store on Main street, and in the future will handle the local field as partners.
 Jack McGregor is probably the best known insurance man in the Ger ritory, and is very prominent in all portions of the country on account of having captured the vice presiden- cy of the s200, ,000s club last year. He is especially we'll known in Bisbee and the Warren district, having made his home here for number of years past. He attended the meeting of the district managrs of tbe New York Life held at Atlantic City few weeks ago, at which time it was decided to write insurance on the lives Of miners under the old rate up to the sum of s2000.
 Because of this concession, McGreg- or with the local field to work in has entered a contest against more than 800 agents in the west, in which he is expected to submit more applica- tions for insurance during the com ing year than any other.
 Clemmons has also been in the dis trict for a long time past, and al. though he has not achieved such dis tinction in the insurance world as McGrefor, he is considered a very able man.

MAY BE ADMITTED.

Those who were moved to pity some time ago at the story of the unfortu nate situation of Mike Simon, a Pir. tleville business man who had brought his family from the old country to make their home here and were twice refused admittance to the United States, will be glad to learn that it has been found their cases are not so serious as was at first reported, and some hope is held out of their finally being able to cross the line.
 The family of eight have been in Agua Prieta since they were refused admittance.. Hr. Sihon's business has been in the care of his father in the meantime. The family has been un- der the care of Dr. Downs of this city, who has been treating their cases of diseased eyes and they have made great improvement under his care. It was found that the cases were not so serious as was first reported and the doctor now holds out to them the hope that they will soon be able to finish their journey if the marked improve ment continues-Douglas Dispatch.

COPPER RANGE.

The Globe shaft of the Copper Range Consolidated has reached the l third level below the rock surface, ! giving it a depth of nearly 600 feet. ! The over-burden, mostly quicksand, was 230 feet deep an dvery difficult
 to penetrate, consequently the shaft l drought that depth Is quite crooked, making the working conditions ad-
 verse, although a great part of the trouble was ended when the shaft
 reached the rock, says the Daily l Mining Journal. This will be reme- l died gradually and when the shaft reaches the lode and is made perma-
 nent it will be entirely straightened. A long distance has to be driven be- fore the lode is entered. but diamond drill explorations before the shaft was started yielded cores well charg-
 ed with copper. When profitable
 ground is developed and permanent shafts are opened the Globe will add immeasurably to the resources of the company, as it carries the outcrop for nearly 7.600 feet and the underlie
 is controlled to depth greaer than it is expected workings can ever reach
 Champion is preparing to erect the last of its four permanent hoisting engines. Those at the two southerIy shafts. D and E, are already in ser
 vice and the uortherly shaft, B, has the machinery in position, ready for
 stem, leaving only shaft c, where the building is completed and the ma chinery is delivered.
 Eventually fifth shaft will be op- ened, to be known as F, and will han dle all ground to the southern bound
 ary, adjoining the Globe. Champion and Globe workings will doubtless be
 connected as the management is tne same. This will give adequate yenii- latcn with fewer shafts. aad with the advent of electric tramming jn these properties, which does not look a great way of, such d policy
 will become practicable. This will
 reduce the cost of opening very ms- ! terially.

 feed it into the crushers. Very
 large pieces had to be broken with

 dump and the crushers to permit the men to work freely.

MATTERS ARE IF IMPORTANCE
 ID HE CITY
Damage Suits and Making Per- manent Of Subway Will En- gage Attention of Municipal Officials For Weeks.

At present there are a number of matters of importance, which will engage the attention or the municipal officials during the next few weeks, and prove of the greatest interest to the community. Among these are several far reaching improvements, and matters in the legal department which will be disposed of, /
 A case which is of particulaf inter est to the people of Bisbee is raat of Mrs. Belle Hargraye vs. the city, in which the plaintiff was awarded damages in the sum of sS700 by a jury in the district couft. The sulr grew cut of an accident in which the plaintiff fell at an unprotected place on Opera Drive and fractured one of her limbs. At present this case is in the hands of the Supreme Court, having been submitted on argument during the last session.
 Another case which is engaging the attention of City Attorney Neale, is that of Mrs. Brazeil vs. the City Of Bisbee, which will come up at the April term of the district court. The plaintiff in this suit also fractured a limb. by a fall on School Hill, as the result of stepping on a piece of ex- posed piping.
 The matter of drawing up an agree ment to be presented to the owners oi property abutting on the subway, has received the attention of the cIty attornew. and all is ready to be sub mitted to the city council at it's next meeting. This contract concerns the project of placing the waterway in a permanent condition.
 At the next meeting of the council the matter of taking the upper DOT ton of Tombstone Canyon into the city as an addition will also be con sidered and disposed of.

The orannsTres.

The orange is the longest lived frui. tree. It begins to bear the third year after budding and for 100 years it will yield abundant crops. Orange trees have been known to attain the ripe age of 800 years. The orange requires less care and attention than any other fruit tree. Its early growth is rapid. In the first two years it grows more than it will in the next fifty. This re fers, of course, to It's height and breadth alone-its fruit stems and con sequentiy its crops increase more rap idly after the first ten years

DOUGLAS COUNCIL.

Two matters of importance are likely to come up before the regular meeting of the city council which will be held next Monday night. The first of these was touched upon at the last meeting, but is certain to come up again-the question of a sewer ordinance to com pei connection with the new sewer mains. At the last meeting this mat ter had some discussion and it was proposed to pass a compulsory ordi- nance that all connections should be made before given time.
 It is stated that some of the mem bers still favor such an ordinance and that others consider 1t too broad and far-reaching. There are, it is said, many cases where such an ordinance would work great hardship and oth- CTS where a sewer connection is really a necessity for the public health. There is little doubt that a general sewer connection would nave far-reaching re suits for the public good and this is the reason given by the supporters of such a measure.
 Others believe that the better and fairer way will be to place the matter in the hands of the health committee Wherever they find an unsanitary con dition on any premises. the plan is for them to bring action in the court, af ter notice, to compel connection with the sewer by the owner of the prem ises on which offensive conditions ex ist-

A Democratic weapon.

To our minds, there was only one
eonrse for Mr.. Foraker-to spurn the
retainer of the. trusts and. to decline
to differentiate between ]. B. Foraker,
lawyer, and Joseph Benson Foraker,
Senator of the United States. No man
is SO Judicially minded as rightly to be
able to take money from corporation
upon whose methods Of business he may
have, as Federal legislator, to sit in
Judgment particularly when that cor,
poration calls upon him to defeat legis-
lltion and prevent nominations. He
may think that he is hired for his legal
skill; everyone else will believe that
the stake was his! political influence.
We have had high regard for Sena tor
Foraker's independence and fearless
ness during the last two years, in which
lie has rendered great service; but we
must repeat our belief that these reve-
lations make Mr.. Foraker's reelection,
altogether unlikely, and quite undeslr-
able. What weapon Mr.. Hearst has
forged for the Democrats New York

the always present prospect that the
unexpected will happen.

With almost everyone who votes at
tempting some method of forecastlng
results, the experts have. little real ad-
vantage except as they use intelligent
ly the method employed in forecasting
the weather. The tabulated vote of
elections for four years in detail, with
summaries below for twenty years, State
BY State, may give something more than
the same approach to certainty given
by tables Of rainy and sunshiny days
for the same period. When reports of
Indications over the whole area AFFECT.
ed are brought to bear on these, the
prophet who practices strict method Is,
likely to, reach rs near certainty as
method can bring him. e
AS Edmund Burke made his repntn-
tion as the most extraordinary political
prophet of modern times, he may have
used such methods rs far as they were
convenient. His fulfilled prophecies.
however. seem as remarkable because
they were conscientious as because they
were fulfilled. He seems to have reach
ed In some way the almost impossible
ability to find what ought to happen
justly, with the greatest measure of
Justice for oil concerned, measured not
by his own wishes but from the general
operations of the logic Of justice out
If the past through the present into the
future. Prophecy of this kind is always
likely tolbe rare. In Burkes case his
foresight counted for nothing in the
politics of any year In which he used
it. it was recognized only after what
happened for others as the unexpected
had worked out along lines he had fol-
lowed where their logic carried him.
II there are Bnrxes in this country
now, they may do something of the
same kind for their own conscientious
purposes. The political almanacs and.
the Indications must be the reliance cf
all others who wish. to predict what will
Happen.
