THE DAILY REVIEW BsBEE

Springs valley, when he went out hunting for rabbits and birds. He had exhausted all his ammunition but one shell, when he saw the kitten of wild cat, about the size of an ordin- ary house cat This he was attempt ing to capture, when the mother showed up and showed fight. He at once fired the one load of bird shot which he had, and without waiting to see the result of his shot, left in order to get shells loaded with larger shot
 When he returned he saw no trace of the cat, and cautiously approaching the place, which was near the house, found her stretched out dead, the load having resulted in almost instant death. He also found that the same shot had killed one of the kittens. Two others were found, which he cap tured.
 One of the kittens Jones has on his ranch. where he is attempting to raise it as a pet The other he brought to town with him. and pre- sented to the c. & A. Hospital, where it is kept as a mascot The wild cat weighed forty pounds. Its skin has been tanned and now forms a most valuable ornament in the rancher's home.

IDEA IF HALF
 HOLIDAY Is A !
 WELCOME ONE
Citizens Cad of Opportunity to Give Soldier Boys From Ft. Huachuca Glad Hand Next Friday Afteronon.

The idea Of making Friday after noon a holiday occAsion has proved to be a most welcome one, and that day promises to be one on which there will be much doing. Several of those who have the matter most at heart were out of the city yesterday, but with the merchants dem onstrated that there was no doubt but that the suggestion would be carried out to the fullest extent.
 So far as was learned, no further addition to the plans as outlined in yesterdays Review have been made, out there is little doubt but that today this will be looked after. Even if noth- ing additional is done, the program suggested is sufficient to make the af- ternoon and evening pleasant ones to all wdo care to participate, and to let the soldier boys, in whose honor the affair is planned. know that they are more than welcome to the camp.
 The four troops of the Fifth Caval- ", who are expected to reach here Thursday on their practice march from Ft. Huaehuca to this place, were in Naco yesterdaA on schedule time. They will be in Douglas today.
 Quite g. number of the friends Of the soldiers, especially several of the business men who are personally ac- quainted vita the officers who are in command of the troops, went over to the border city yesterday in automo- piles. They did all in their power to see to it taat the soldiers and officers enjoyed themselves, and told them of the plans which had been laid in Bis bee for their entertainment At this they seemed highly pleased. and ex- pressed their appreciation of the man. her in which BiEbee had treated them heretofore.
 As has been stated. the program. so far as outlined. include a ball game Friday afternoon at Warren. near which the troops will encamp, to- gether with an exhibitions of fancy riding on the part of the troops. The Fifth band, which is perhaps the best in the southwest, will be on hand to furnish music, and will play again at night, it is expected. at the bessamer near the C. Q. general offices. There is also some talk of a ball in honor Of the officers. and perhaps the men, for that night.
 Manager M. M. King Of the Orpteum stated that ne would entertain the soldier boys one night by giving them free access to the Orpheum, to hear one of the plays of the Ina Lehr com pany now playing an engagement there. The street car company will offer free transportation over its lines.

 '. Central Weak.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-An essential feature in today's stoc market was largely a repetition of yesterdays Prices moved with the same uncer- tainty, buying and selling represent ing the most part of the operations in the professional element. There was marked weakness of New York Central which dropped abruptly under short selling which was attended by rumors of some more financing in that property.
 In indIstTials American Smelling and 'Amalgamated Copper were both active and strong. In the final hour shorts were hastily driven to cover by a sharp upward movement of Southern Pacific and Union Pacific together with advices from the west of further crop improvements. \ Trading dimin- ished somewhat before the close, but material gains were registered by a number of issues.

JUL. JOHNSON OUT IF RACE
 FUR SHERIFF
Announces He Has Decided Not to Be Candidate and Pledges His Support to the Demo- cratic Nominee.
(special to The Review.

DOUGLAS, Aug. Is.-"You can sa for me that l am not a candidate fer the nomination for the office of sheEif on the Democratic ticket.
 Some time ago l said to my friends tSSS would be glad to have the nomi- HI bn and that if chosen l would make the best race possible, but have changed my mind
 T have been a supporter of the Democratic party and its candidates ever since 1 was old enough to vote and before, but the idea of holding of fee has always been distasteful to me and because of this and other reasons, not necessary to mention here, l have concluded that l would not allow my name to be used in connection with the sherifT's office, or any other office.
 Whoever wins the favor of the Democratic convention this fall will have my hearty support, but l want il understood that my withdrawal from the contest for sheriff Is in the. interest of no candidate"
 The above were the words of Col. - H. Johnston of Douglas spoken to Representative of the International. The announcement will be a surprise to DcuOCIdlS l14IAs-bOuN lAt NbNAls cio Mr. Johnston has been r garded a< one of the strongest candidates in the field.
 Recently Colonel Johnston has taken on new business engagements in the Shelter City. and no doubt this has had to do with his conclusion to refuse to allow the further consideration of his name for sheriff.
 During the last six years there has not been a more prominent worfEr ta the Democratic party of Cochise coun- ty than Colonel Johnston. He has been regarded by many as the strong est man the Democrats could name for the office of sheriff this fall. From many parts of the county he had pledges of support which were fiat tering and pointed strongly to his sue cess as a candidate.
 Colonel Johnston requests that 1t be made known that he fully appreciates the compliment and confidence be slowed upon him by those friends who have solicited him to become a can dftate for sheriff and to insure them that he will be as faithful and COZ stant in his devotion to the Demo cratic party in this county as he has been in the past, but that his candi- dacy for sheriff is at an end.

II will soon be time to take young
pigs from the sows, and in weaving
them much care will be necessary to
avoid stunting them or stopping their
growth When about three weeks old
the young pigs will begin to look
around for feed, and pen should then
be provided for them where they can
be coaxed and given a little fresh
milk-it takes very little at first-after
they have once tasted the milk they
may be easily called to their feed.
Corn should be constantly kept in this
pen and the little pigs have free access
to it at all times Milk or swlll should
be fed TO them, a little at first, and
increased gradually daily. 1t will be
beneficial to give them all the fresh,
clean swill they will drink up clean
at each feed. Never feed little pigs
anything sour, or so much swill that 1t
will stand in the trough and sour. Feed
them this way until you see that the
SOW is dried up, then remove her and
the pigs will be weaned.

In summer the farmer has plenty OF
work ON hand, and work that must
have prompt attention, but the work
needed in the garden Is that which ne
should least neglect His living depends
on 1t, at least he ought to think so, and
act on that belief. 1t is certain that
there is no other part of his entire
work so important to the health and
comfort of his family and himself, and
the actual saving Of expenses which a
bounteous garden insures Is feature
which alone warrants him in making a
good garden. no matter what other
work many cause him to defer. It is
presumed that he has by this time of
year made all necessary preparations
for supply of fruit for family use
during the entire summer, and much Of
the provision for supply OF staple
vegetable should be completed, but
there is time for much more, ana 1t
win not pay to neglect it.
