|BAD MEXICAN
 STABS FELLOW

TOMBSTONE, May ls.--A telephone message received at the sheriff's of- fee from Gleason conveys the informa- ton that there was serious stabbing affair at the Leadville camp. A Mex ican named Gregoria Quinteras is charged with stabbing another Mexican in the back. Quinteras shortly after.

The name of the Mexican who was assaulted was not given, but it was stated that he was seriously injured and would be brought to the county hospital today. Quinteras was held to await tho action of the last grand jury on charge of assaulting another Mexican with go fife, but the grand jury evidently did not believe case could be made against Jim, as they ignored the charge.

MYSTERY IN
 DEATH IN WELL

MORALES, May ls.--The case of Feliciano Bojorquez, whose body was round night before last in well on the Lopez premises on Arizpe street in Nogales, Sonora, continues to puzzle the authorities and deepens the mys. tery.
 The dead man was a carpenter by oc- cupation, and bore a fairly good char acter One woman testiies that she saw him and spoke with him n half hour before he was discovered in the well, dead, and that he was then perfectly sober.
 It is stated that all the Chinese oc- eupying the buildings on the premises except one fled immediately after the corpse was discovered, and their where abouts are unknown. The remaining Chinaman in charge of the stores was arrested by the authorities and thrown into jail, but it is said that he knows nothing of the affair and will probably be liberated.
 An examination of the corpse dis. closed wound or confusion on the top of the head, but whether this was done before the victim fell into the we'll or was result of the fall, has not been determined.
 The absence of any known motive for the crime is by some held to be the strongest evidence at hand that the mans death was accidental, and it is probable that this case will add one more to the already large number ot unsolved eases of mysterious deaths.

Queer Charity Seen Every Morning
Near Paris Markets.

At certain point OF Paris, France.
near the Halles there is every morn
ing to be seen an instance for which
Il would probably be difficult to md
many parallels Of that benevolence
which combines with money expendi-
lures the elements of personal serv-
ice.
An old gentleman, well dressed, pre-
sents himself at an hour now well
known to those concerned, and there
distributes. with his own hands 100
large bowls OF soup, which he frst
tastes himself, to as many poor peo-
pie, who, it need hardly be added, are
there waiting for him.
Then he withdraws. walks for some
distance, and is taken up In fine
motor car, which whisks him rapidly
away. The Father of the Poor is
the only name which can be given to
him.

The Scotch Juror.

In Scotland in civil case jurymen
get ten shillings a day. for their serv.
ices and the litigants must In addition
provide them with lunch. If two cases
are tried consecutively and the same
jurymen officiate. they get ten shiil-
ings for each case.
But the most important difference
between an English and Scottish
jury is this: An English jury when
returning their verdict must be unan-
imous, and ii they fail tozagree after
certain length of time they are dis
missed and the whole proceedings are
begun again de novo before a fresh
Jury. This is most expensive mode
Of administering justice. In civil
eases. in order to avoid this result.
the litigants sometimes agree to &C.
cept the verdict of a majority. In
Scotland the jury can always give q
verdict by majority in civil cases
after the lapse of three hours.
