The atfidavitS submitted on both
sides convinced me that at present,
at and near Walhalla, near which
the alleged homicide took place. the
public mind is in an excited state,

the jurors drawn to serve ut tins

much of the homicide. and doubtless
many OF them have discussed the

these jurors upon their voir dire
might give defendants an opportunity
to challenge for cause such as have

jurors served or drawn must neceS-
Sarlly be taken from people who re-

homicide, and these doubtless have

For Diseases of the Skin.

Nearly all diseases Of the skin such
as eczema, letter, salt rheum and
BARRIERS itch, are characterized by
an intense iching an smarting, which
often makes life a .urden and dis
turbs sleep and rest. Quick relief
may be had by applying Chamber
lain's Salve. 1t allays the itching
and smarting almost instantly. Many
cases have been cured by it's use. For

MANY YOUNG LADIES

Whether Bisbee is to experience "a plenthcra of weddings iI the near future is not known, but certain in. dications point that way. It is under, stood that an unusually large mum Der of young lades are enrolling in the domestic science department of the high school. and while scouting the idea of becoming a student of any other branches, are most anxi. ors to exhaust the resources of this particular course.
 The domestic science department is devoted solely to cooking and Its accessories, and this class Is one O. the largest of the school.
 Perhaps the young ladies may be sadly misjudged, but as the budding blossoms generally steer clear of the kitchen and its attendant labors un. less absolutely necessary. the un usual eagerness to master domestic science may have a deeper sigRifi canoe.

EAGINEERSAGREE OH RAILROADS
 CROSSING

At a meeting between J. C. Mcclure engineer for the Southern Pacific and F. c. Wilson, resident engineer for the E. P. & S. w Tuesday after noon. an amicable agreement was reached concerning crossing the tracks of the Southwestern by the s. P. line from Courtiand to Naco. The exact spot chosen was at the west end of Crook Switch. a short distance from the east end of Crook tunnel
 The crossing of the Southern Pa cific will be on trestle work above the Southwestern tracks. built at suf- ficient height to allow free passage of the trains of the latter road. The trestle and approaches will involve the expenditure of large sums of money to build but this is the best arrangement which could be reach ed when the topography of the sur rounding country is considered.
 Since building of the s. P. Court land-Naoo line was first spoken. of and the preliminary surveys were made, 1t was generally expected that when the question of securing a cross ing over the Southwestern tracks was broached. opposition would be encountered. The amicable agree ment reached in a short time is therefore rather a surprise to the gen ,ersl public.
 Just when work at the crossing will be begun, cannot be ascertsined at present but it is presumed that this portion of the work will be started shortly as it is probably the heav- jest piece of engineering work on the extension.

Arizona, in camp there.
 He arrived at Whipple at l o'clocC on the morning train, where he was met and conducted on an inspection tour by Capt. G. G. Palmer, command ing officer.
 The coming of the distinguished army officer was not known to citl zens of Prescott until a telegram tc F. NJ. Murphy was received. Governal Sloan was promptly communicated with and through the cooperation o. the governor and Mayor Goldwater. a warm welcome was accorded the gen eral. He made a semi-official call on the governor at o'clock, and ac cepted the chief executives invitation to inspect the National Guard of Ari zona at Camp Sloan. In a short speech General Bell complfmented the governor, Colonel McClintock and oi ficers of the national guard on the excellent organization of camps and military bearing of the men.

TROOPS DEPLOY IN MEXICAN
 BORDER

The dawn of Mexican independence day. September 16. will be marked by a great quietness throughout the Republic. although rumors of demon strations hostile to the government as represented by Diaz and Vice President Ramon Corrall are rife. In anticipation, it is believed. of an or ganized demonstration from ths side of the line, United States cavalry are eneamped along the borden That this is their object is denied by the off, ccrs, who declare the fact that they are encamped at verious places along the border this morning is only an incident of a practice march Ieste' day morning at an early hour Troop F. C: the Eighth cavalry, sta toned a; Fort Huachuca. rode quietly into Naco and went into camp. They are under command of Lieut.. R. L.. Collins. Lieut. Collins passed a few hours in Bisbee yesterday afternoon as thc guest of W. H. Brophy.
 "The troop I command is simply at Naco for short time for a practice maicn. The fact that they are there Is cnly incidental ard has no sigli- ficance," said he, q do not know how long they will be there, probably CT several days and they will then re turn. to the fort. l know nothing other than what have told you"
 If the one troop were out alone it would not look as if trouble were ex- pected but the fact that Troop c is in camp at Nogaies gives strength to the rumor that something beyond a mere patriotic celebration is feared today, on the other side of the bord- CT.
 In case any hostile demonstration from this side Of the border should be attempted the troops, which are said to be under orders from Wash ington, would be at once brought into action to quell the disturbance
 Local Mexicans disclaim any knowl- edge of rumors of an outbreak or of any political demonstration against the government So far as can be learned the only plans for the day entertained here are in keeping with the. festal character of the day. A few of the more prominent among the Mexican colony will go to Naco to at tend a fiesta and ball which is to be given tEere by the leaders of the border town. The Jefe Politico, or mayor is to enact the role of host, it is stated A Mexican orchestra which is to furnish music for the affar left here yesterday.
 At Cananea the base ball tourna- ment and patriotic exercises will fill the day to repletion, a grand baile ending it for the jewellers.
 In Bisbee. beyond the firing of a few charges of dynatime on the hill side opposite the city. there will be no celebration of note, A few pri- vate parties will mark the evening.

CURIOUS NEEDLES IN EUROPE.
One Made from a Hair and Another Is Covered with Beautiful
 Engraving

Y Many years back the then king of Prussia visited a needle manufactory in his kingdom He was shown a num- Der of superf1ne needles, thousands of which together did not weigh half an ounce, and marveled how such minute objects could be pierced with an eye. But he was shown something even finer The workman whose business it was to bore the eye in the needles asked for hair from the monarch's heed. It was readily given. and with a smile the borer placed 1t under his machine and made an eye in it. This he furnished with a thread, and then handed the singular needle to the 2s- tontshed king.
 Another most curious needls va5 in the possession of Queen VictC ria. It manufactory at Reeditch, and repre- sents the column of Trajan in mini ature. This well-known Roman column is adorned with numerous scenes in sculpture which immortalize Trajan's heroic actions in war, and on this diminutive needle, which was present ed to the queen on her visit to the famous manufactory in December. 1864, scenes in her life are presented in relief, but so small that 1t requires a powerful magnifying glass to see them clearly.
 The Victoria" needle can, more over. be opened, and contains a num- ber of needles of smaller size. which are also adorned with scenes in re- lief
