When the charge of Spion Kop was made by the Boers, Van Gass was the first man to reach the top of the hill and to fire on the Brit ish entrenehed b4hind it, This charge was compared at the time to that of the famous Five Hundred composing the Light Brigade and pro claimed as the greatest feat of dar- ing ever attempted in the history of warfare
 With 42 men, Captain Van Class led the charge up the hill expecting to find small detachment of British troops. Instead, 5,000 seasoned Yeter- ans entrenehed behind their earth works met his gaze, and, as he con fesses. he thought his time had come.

 from his lower valley ranch Friday,

Captain Van Gass fought through the war against the Bricsh and distinguished himself on number of occasions. Having served in the mounted burgzer forces in South Africa under the Brit ish flag, he was one ot the first to leave his home in Pretoria and cast his lot with the Boer cause. Al though having only a stump of a right arm. the rest having been given as sacrifice to the peace of South Africa during the native uprising, ne was at first refused admission into the ranks of the fighting Dutchss.on and it was only after he had insisted S2n not being left behind by his com V sies that he was allowed to go aIong to battle as mounted private.

CHINAMAN WANTED IN
 MEXICO FOR MURDER

PHOENIX. June 12-To Wong How,
 Mexico is just at present about the
 last place he would choose, if it was left to him to say, where he would
 make his headquarters. He had much rather the immigration officers should deport him to China.
 United States Attorney Alexander will go to Nogales to represent the government n eXtradition pro ceedings, in which Mexico is asking 1 that How be surrendered and turned over to be tried for a brutal murder at Mesa del Sur, near Cananea. Several weeks ago How cut to pieces Lee Hing and fled to the Amer ican side at Nogales, where he was ! arrested for being in the United States without a certificate and or dered deported to China. He was ex- ceedingly glad to go.
 Before United States Marshal Dan iels could take How to San Fran
 cisco and put him aboard an ocean liner. the Mexican officials made
 acquisition for How, and tomorrow he will be given hearing at Nogales to
 show cause why he should not be ex-
 tradited.
 Lee Hing's brother is the accuser of How, and if his story is accepted
 How's days are numbered. The Hing brothers conducted a small store at
 Mesa del Sur, and for some reason not yet made clear bad blood existed between Lee Hing and How. Kings brother left the store one afternoon, and when he returned was just in time to discover How hurry

Our reinforce ments kept coming up from the rear on the run until we had fighting force of 400 against the 5000 British. After we had fought some time ant had them beaten, they put up white flag, but as soon as we came out of our improvised entrenchments. they opened fire on us. Latter they put up as manX as five white flags, but our men paid no attention to them then, only shooting them down as fast as they showed above the earth works. It was all the officers could do to stop the men from fighting when the final surrender was made.
 "Of the 5000 English soldiers, we took 364 prisoners. and all of the rest were either dead or wounded on the sides and top of the hill. They were buried there seven deep in a long trench. We lost 49 men that were killed outright and a large nunl- Der that were wounded l lost the Tt maining part of my right arm from a shot, end it had to be amputated at the shoulder. I was also shot through the chest. the bullet passing between the two main arteries. and causing no bad effects. It only kept me in the hospital q days. when I again joined my troops. The men wanted to elect me field coronet. but I did not like General Eresmus, in charge of that division. and I declined.
 At the close of the war I came to the United States with the Boer war exhibit that was at the Worlds fair. in order to see something of a coup. trv that had heard so much about. After the close of the fair. I traveled over the country and had about decid- ed to locate in Arizona.

 FROM DR. E. B. PARRIN

Dr. E. B. Perrin and his brother. Robert Perrin. arrived here yesterday evening and are stopping at the Gold man hotel Dr. Perrin is well known all over the west, having located in i California forty years ago. He now has his business headquarters at Will Hams. CocOnino county, and in that county and Yayapai he owns nearly 300, 900 acres of land on which is to be found much valuable timber; on his landed possessions in mortimer ATi- zona he has large flocks of sheep | Dr. Perrin is also owner of the Bab-
 acOmari land grant consisting of 32,- 1 900 acres of land in Santa Cruz and ! Cochise county. This land was con | tracted for sale to Colonel W. C.
 Greene several years ago and Dr. Per | rin expects to close this deal with l Greene in the near future.
 T am going to look at the tract of 1 land south of Douglas known as Lot A." said Dr. Perrin this morning. and will leave on the afternoon train 1 I have had ffatteTing reports on this property and if I find it as represent I ed it is quite likely that I will buy it | from the Bank of Sonora, the present owners. Tn that case it would be my | intention to cut the timber available on the tract into lumber which would | be marketed at Douglas and the min ming camps surrounding your city. If 1 I find a good range for sheep would stock it with flocks which l believe would be as profitable here as m | northern Arizona, where the sheep men have been much more prosper ous than the cattlemen. The land l available for agriculture would not be allowed to remain idle should I de | eide to make the purchase of the l tract.
 ] T have been led to believe that the | country surrounding your city. includ- ing Nacozari, Bisboe and Cananea, Is one of the richest mineral sections of the world and the development of the country in Sonora to the south Of your city will undoubtedly make Douglas the largest city in Arizona. l I understand that in the near future
 Douglas will exceed Butte, Montana. in capacity for smelting copper ore
 and when this occurs your city will
 no doubt contain population of 30,-
