HAITIAN ELECTION
 AND REVOLUTION
Furnish a Reasonably Lively Period For the Residents of the Island.

Washington. Jan. 1.-The state de- partment today received advices con corning the recent revolutionary at tempt in Hayti. in the shape of two cabiegrams from American Minister Furniss, at Port Au-Prince. In the first dispatch. Furniss stated that the towns of Gonives and St. Marco were in the hands of revolutionists and that there was a battle in which the revO- lutionists were repulsed, when the telegraphic communication was inter rupted. The second dispatch, received at 2:3O D. m. today, stated that Fur miss had interviewed President Nord of Hayti. who insisted upon bOmbarding St. Marie. Lieut. Commander Marva protested against the bombardment until a reasonable time had been all lowed in which to move the women, children and non-combatants from those parts. The election of members of the house of representatives is in progress to add to the excitement of the incident The election is ascribed in some quarters as the trouble which culminated in the outbreak. Next years house will elect a president. The election continues almost a week.

FRESH AIR NEEDED.

Medicine is not much use to cure consumption. Fresh air and clean living are the essential forces to combat the dread white scourge. Every precaution should be employed to prevent the germs from settling on the lungs, and coughs and colds should not be neglected. To break up a cold quickly and cure any cough that is curable. mix a half ounce Virgin oil of Pine with two ounces of give erine and a half pint of good whisky. Shake well and take a teaspOonful every four hours. Five ounces of tincture of Gin chona compound can be used in- stead of whisky with the same effect.
 This mixture will usually break up a cold over night. Care should be exercised to use only the genuine Virgin Oil of Pine. which is prepared in the labo- ratories of the Leach Chemical Co, Cincinnati. O.. and put up for dispensing. only in k-ounce vials, each securely sealed in a round wooden case. IL is better to purchase the different ingred- tents separately and mix them at home.

Mrs. George Christ, Sr.. left the family home in Nogales last night and will arrive here Sunday morning. To be with her son in his hour of sorrow.
 The late Mrs. Christ. then known as Miss Christine Farnese, came to Phoe- nix first four years ago. spending that and the following winter here for
 benefits to be derived from a mild and equable climate. She was a most tal- ented vocalist, having received a tho rough musical education in France and Germany. and being graduate under the instruction of Madame Matilde Marchesi. one of tine most notable vO- calists and instructors in Paris. Dur ing a part of two winters here Mrs. Christ gave some instruction in vocal music but i'll health interferred with the continuance of her chosen work.
 Just twenty three months ago yes terday she was married to MT. Christ of this city. and only a month or so later she was taken quite i'll. From that time until the present she has been confined to the hospital the greater part of the time. though she recovered sufficiently to spend the summer in Nogales She returned about october 1st seemingly improved though the benefits were but tempo rary and she had to enter the hospital again very soon. where she remained until death relieved her sufferings last night. Besides her husband she is survived by a sister who lives in Mad ison Wis. another who resides in Minneapolis and a third sister who lives in Dakota.
 Though III health has prevented Mrs. Christ from much participation in so- cial affairs she made many warm friends among those who knew her, during the brief periods of her better health. and there will be sincere mourning at her untimely death and the sympathy of many friends will go out to the bereaved husband.

While the busiest part of the orange season has passed and the large part of the shipments have been made from the valley, the packing house is still running and will continue to operate till some time late in the spring. MT. C. F. JordOn will be the official sup erintendent and head boss there from now on, the plant having been, turned over to lis care.
 About twelve more cars of oranges will be shipped this season. but they will be made up of bloOds mostly. With these additional carlots. the to- tai shipments from the valley will be 12G cars, a much greater number than was at first estimated. Of the desert brand, fancy" I4.616 half. and 6612 whole boxes were shipped; of the Cac- tus choice" brand, 20,994 whole boxes. About one car load has been consumed locally. The reports are now coming in on the cash returns and the cars of Desert brand have averaged about S1400, while the Cactus cars sold from $500 to $12O0. and averaged about 5000 each.
 There will also be about 15 cars of ltllOIlS anu d NOuplt pl SAdpt The demand for the latter has been so great that the supply is far from adequate.

Eighty-Five Girls In Peril With Inadequate i've nues of Escape.

Scranton, Pa, Jan. 17.-Four girls were killed, ten seriously injured and a score more slightly hurt in a fire at the Imperial Knitting Company's mill in Dix court in the central part of the city today. The dead are: Marie Buckler aged 19, neck broken jumping from a third story window; Catherine Griffin age 20. skull fractured jumping from window; Jennie Ratchford age =, jumped from window and died in the hospital; Katherine Manosky age IS, jumped from window and died in the hospital. The seriously injured are Anna Ryan. aged 23; Florence Wares aged 19; Ernestine Kohn. jumped from the third floor and re- ceived internal injuries and broken limbs
 Eighty-five girls were at work on the third floor when the fire broke out on the ground floor where some men were vanishing furniture in the ware house. It quickly assended an elevat- or shaft and drove the girls panic stricken to a window opening on the fire escape. The girls on the upper upper part of the fire escape crowded those in front. With flames envelop- ing them half of them jumped from the third floor before the firemen ar rived. There was only one exit, a narrow hallway beside fire escapes the hallway was cut off by fire and smoke. The fact that many girls fainted fur ther blocked the narrow fire escape and added to the difficulty of rescue. The financial loss is $75,00O

A QUICK TRIP 10
 HE ROOSEVELT DAM
Panoramic Pictures of This Valley and Upper Salt River on Display at the Commercial Hotel.

On the front page of this paper will De found the advertisement of a quick Trip to Roosevelt" It Is a general invitation extended to the pub lie to call at the Commercial hotel, where in the reading room are dis played the finest series of panoramic photograps ever seen here and as good as were ever seen anywhere. They are the pictures taken by the Calkins Syndicate, in furtherance of the ad- vertising and subscription project fur thered by the clubbing arrangement between The Republican and the Or chard and Farm, well known and high class farm journal.
 These pictures are all framed and hang on the wall just as they will ap- pear when subscribers have them in their completeness, and as they will appear when exhibited in public places throughout the east where they will surely attract a great deal of atten- ton to Arizona. The light in the room make the pictures show to better ad- vantage during the middle part of the day. though they may be seen at any time. Another shipment of the pict- ures. ordered for display in the Hotel Adams. has not yet ben received, but is expected at an early day.
 The framing of the pictures was done in Los Angeles by the framing department of the Panorama company which is prepared especially for fram- ing it's own pictures and does no oth- CT framing business. W. P. Whitney representing that department is here and is prepared to take orders fom all who prefer to have the company frame the pictures. This is an entirely sepa- rate matter and has nothing to do with the clubbing proposition between the two papers. whereby the pictures are secured. The subscriber may have his pictures framed wherever he chooses. or not framed at all. The only thing is the pictures are so fine it would seem a pity not to have them framed. Mention of the framing by MT. Whitney is made only because he is prepared to furnish suitable frames for the different sized pictures, at abo,,- r.--- -Ne cost of framing else where. This is because 1t is a speciality and a large stock of the particular materials required, is on hand, secured in quantity and handled at a minimum of expense.
 But the principal thing for the read CT to bear in mind right now is the invitation to go and look at the pict- ures It is a convenient place and II does not cost a cent.

RICH ORE STRUCK
 Al THE IRON GAP
A Gila County Mine in Which Phoenix Men Are Greatly Interested.

The following good news from Globe will be pleasing to the many friends of the Galpin family in this city, as it refers to a property MT. Galpin and sons have been exploiting at the in stance of eastern capitalists they in- terested in it a year or two ago. The item is from the Globe Silver Belt, which sa.s:
 The National Mining Exploration Go. has made its first big strike. high grade ore being encountered in the east drift on the 450 foot level of the Iron Cap mine. Since the company commenced operations early last year, little doubt has existed that good ore would be struck in the mine. owing to its excellent location. With the Cop per Hill mine of the Arizona Commer- cial on one side of it and the Black Hawk mine of the same company on the other. there was no logical reason for not having ore in the Iron Cap.
 Several weeks ago a vein fourteen feet wide was penetrated by the north crosscut about 500 feet from the shaft but it contained only a trace of min eral. most of which was leached out. Drifting on the vein was started for the purpose of further exploring the vein and the recent strike is the re- suit. Although no assays have been made the ore is believed to average be- tween eight and nine per cent. some of it being glance ore, that will go as high as twenty per cent. The entire drift is now in ore which appears to be growing richer with each new round of holes blasted.

BANISHED. Coffee Finally Had to Go.

The way some persons cling to cof fee even after they know it is doing them harm, is a puzzler. But it is an easy matter to give it up for good when Postum Food Coffee is properly made and used instead.
 A girl writes: Mother had been suffering with nervous headaches for seven weary years. but kept drinking coffee.
 "One day I asked her why she did not give up coffee as a cousin of mine had done who had taken to Postum. But Mother was such slave to coffee she thought it would be terrible to give it up.
 Finally one day, she made the change to Postum, and quickly her headaches disappeared. One morning while she was drinking Postum so freely with such relish. I asked for a taste.
 That started me on Postum and now drink it more freely than I did coffee. which never comes into our
 "A girl friend of mine one day asked if it was coffee. I told her it was Pos tum and gave her some to take home, but forgot to tell her how to make 1t.
 The next day she said she did not see how l could drink Postum. l found she had made it like ordinary coffee. So told her how to make it right and gave her cupful made, after boiling it fifteen minutes. She said she never drank any coffee that tasted as good. and now coffee is banished from both our homes" Name give by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Michigan.

of an immense tract of about two

American syndicate. Montana de-
clares that this syndicate will build
a bridge across the Rio Grande at
San Juan on the Hacienda and a
railroad to Tampico. This latter road
is being surveyed and will connect
with a railroad now building from
Tampico to the City Of Mexico.
This road crossing the bridge will
connect with the road to build from
