There Are Exceptions
 To the Rule In Some Cases

Nobody ever dies in Tomb stone, unless-thev broughtit within" or fall into a 600- foot vertical shaft, or buy an automobile, or sass" their mother in-law, or try to thaw out powder, or mistake cyan ide of potassium for sugar, or start of a county seat remov- al racket. Some die of old age, some old partners of Daniel Boone, but none have ever been known to die from physical irregularities con tracted in Tombstone, aside from the above mentioned causes, and occasionally an abnormal tightness about the throat, superinduced by a coil ofmanilla rope, or from a cold caught through hole made by a .45.

LEPER DISAPPEARS
Hospital Authorities Relieved From
 Troublesome Patient.

Two things are certain, the unfor- tunate Mrs Wsrdwell Is not desd, neither is che harmed, also is she dis tinguished for her absence at the county hospital this Wednesday morn. ing.
 Just how it happened. when it hap pened. where it happened and who caused It to happen are profound mys. teries, but the little door on her for mer quarters in buttoned or the out side, the shsdowy, crouching form is no longer dimly outlined in the cor ner.
 The deadly strain of caring for a poor creature whose mania led 10 per- petual trouble and embarrassment at the hospital is of.
 Last night some time and some how the poor creature disappeared. It is understood that the affair was con- ducted along lines of most consider ate and humaLe methods. The pre- sumption is that the woman was taken to Benson and loaded onto an "E-pee" train, headed for California, where she originally lived, and from which point she and her husband re- turned to ArIzona, undoubtedly at the connivsnce of the authorities.
 The further presumption is strongly lodged in the minds of the people of Tombstone, that during a perfectly lucid interval of sone duration, she willingly undertook to return to Csl- ifornis, in which undertaking it is needless to say, she was neither hin- dered nor obstructed by the focal au thorities, and DO attempt made to overtake the escape.
 She is gone, that is sufficient, poor, unfortunate creature, to whom no sense of resentment can attach, and it is iondly hoped thst for the hos pitsl authorities and Cochise county this mslodorous incident is everlast- ingly closed.

TAX LEVY FIXED AT $2
Corhise County Supervisors Transact
 Important Business.

A lively meeting of the bosid of supervisors was held last evening and was we'll attended by interested spec tators. Among other things passed upon by the board, the bid of the First National Bank of Bishee for their safe at $32OO was accepted.
 The tax rate was fixed at S2 per hundred, as follows. Territorial pur- poses, 75 cents; schools, to raise ap proximately $l39, 900, levy of 40 cents; bond fund, interest on county debt of 10000, fixed at 10 cents; for road fund l5 cents; and for general fund, to raise approximate y Sli5,OOO to run the county government, the sum of 50 cents, ,nakin- a total of S2 per SlOO. To this will be added the school tax for each district to pay the interest on bonds issued. The board decided to place the 600 1 per cent raise OF non-producing pat ented mines on the tax rolls as direct ed This raise will only be subject to the 75 cent tax for territorial purposes and means about 5000 for the terri. tory, but will not apply to the county tax.
 The primary election notice was | ordered printed in THE PRosPECroR !, Bisbee Review. Douglas Dispatch and Cochise Press.
 The bridge at Hereford was ordered repaired and approaches strengthened The board were busy teddy fixing the primary notices, appointing tht various election officers and deeignst ing the polling places.
 The date of primaries was set fol Septem Der 25th and the convention se. for October 3,
 ! The Democratic convention will b. held at Bisbee, the Republicans vii hold forth st Douglas and the Social ists at Lowell
 | Two new school districts were ere. ared, one at the 4-bar ranch and tn, | other at Courtland.
 A meeting of board ci trades will b, held st Bisbee on August 25, wher plans will be adopted to provide print ed matter for circulation at the irri gation congress.

RICH FL TIGRE MINE
Another Rumored Sale of This VaIu-

After many rumors of a sale of the Fl Tigre, which have 90 often been de- nied, repeated and denied again, there cones a verifcation of the last rumor of sale for ss.0OO.O 900 to New York parties. According to this veriEca- tion the mine has not yet been bond ed or transferred, but probably will be very shortly. the matter merely hang ing on the report of the experts who will visit the mine within a few days. Superintendent Robert Musgrave when ia Douglas told the International that he was unable to definitely confirm the report. although he thought some. thing of the sort vas pending. He did not think the company would take less than seven and half million and thought that a reasonable figure.

Sheriff Pacheco Favors a Change in
 Executions.

Sheriff Nabor Pacheco oi Tucson, ir talking of the recent h.ngihgs oI Groce and Hawkins fsvors a di.feren, law in Arizona for executions. To e Star reporter the sheriff said:
 "It seems to me that Arizona is be- hind the ststes of the east in this re- spect," he said "There they take the men to the state penitentiary and the thing is done quietly by the warden and his assistants. There is none of this disgusting and un svoidsble lack of privacy shich turns 6 hanging into a morbid holiday and kills Q conviot while hundreds of men and boys stare and gape st him.
 T think that executions should be in private and that they should not be forced upon the sheriffs of the separate counties, who are always inexperienced men, but should be done privately and and at the penitentiary, where the necessary equipment could be kept al ways on hand"

A Beautiful Rain Visited
 Tombstone Yesterday

No one can adequately des- cribe picture which the good Lord draws, so we will not attempt to describe that magnificent rain in Tomb stone yesterday, where it just came down for a solid hour, heavy but quiet, until Allen street was about 6-inches deep.
 A picture of that rain with a:hundred roof spouts pouring their contribution down on the street, and a picture of that street less than an hour later. as clean and white and dry as freshly flushed con- crete sidewalk, would be great doin's" for Tombstone if only you could get anybody to believe it.
 The rain has been dodging us a little bit, because we did not really need it, but yes;er- day, it certainly filled the or. der, prepaid the freight. de- livered the goods. and follow ed it up with a magnificent rainbow and a beautiful sun set, expressing the idea, that We shall call again.
