SKUNK BITE NEARBY
 PROVED FATAL TO RANGER
(From Sundays Daily.l

After three weeks of treatment for the bite of a hydrophobia skunk, at the celebrated Pasteur institute, Chi cago, J. S. Boyer, the young man who was bitten by a skunk on Cherry Creek, October 31 last, returned to Prescott yesterday. He expresses him self as of the firm opinion that he will never experience any evil effects from the wound, and is an enthusiast as well over the method of treating those afflicted as he was. After en- tering that institution he was treated twice a day for five consecutive days, and this was followed by one injee- tion a day for another ten days. He was then discharged but with the understanding that he must obey in- struetions by keeping out of the sun or from getting overloaded for a period of six months. Otherwise a relapse would follow and there would be a recurrence of the ailment. NIT. Boyer says that his ailment was di- agnosed by the physicians in charge, and the bite was pronounced as carry ing the poison of the hydrophobia skunk. Four days after he was bit ten he was under treatment, and the haste with which he reached Chicago was all the more in his favor, ae- cording to the medical men in charge of the institute
 He speaks of another interesting matter linked to the method of treat ing under the Pasteur system, saying that for three months from the com pletion of the treatment he passed through, he is immune from any bite of the earniverous race, and so fal as rattlesnakes or Gila monsters are to be considered in the deadly column to the human race, he can play witf them to his hearts desire and they can bite him to pieces without any Il effects But in answer to a question as to whether he would give yellow 1 rattler a chance to sample Pasteul virus, he has passed through a hard siege of having one kind of poisor injected and is not on the market fol variety of the fluid that has not al yet come under the pure food law fol analysis.
 MT. Boyer will remain for severa days in the city, and then return t' his mining camp to continue work il development, where he ceased on' month ago, when accidentally bitten

HEARTLESS MOTHER DESERTS
 HER LITTLE GIRL.

Another story of human interest in which a little girl is left a waif through the separation of father and mother ( has its foundation in this city, and the principles in the little bit of domestic tragedy is linked with at least one prominent man in the government of Douglas, who has been the good angel for the little one abandoned, says the Douglas Dispatch.
 It will be remembered that some time ago Mrs. J. S. Day is alleged to have eloped from Courtland with man named King. The husband of the woman, J. S. Day, att one time was employed in Thompson's sewing machine establishment in this city. Having no home after the desertion of his wife, MT. Day turned to Mrs. Thompson of Fourth street, and be- sought her to take the little daughter Mildred. Mrs. Thompson consented to do this, Day promising 10 soon send for the child, and to repay Mrs. Thompson for her trouble in the care of the little girl.
 Day went to Phoenix, and has been employed at ane of the exhibitors booths during the territorial fair. Mrs. Thompson, receiving no remuner- ation for the keeping of the child, has written to Day to either send for the girl or to make payment for her keeping.
 Meantime, Marshal James East, to relieve Mrs. Thompson of a burden that she is hardly able to bear. kindly took the little girl to his own home last Thursday and since that time the child has been kept there.
 Mrs. Thompson received a letter from Day in which he states that he would send money to have the child leave for Phoenix, and that he would try to meet her at Marieopa or make arrangements for Expressman Perry to care for the little girl on her arrival at that place. The money did not arrive Sunday, and Mrs. Thompson was still waiting for it yesterday afternoon.
 In his letter to Mrs. Thompson, Day writes emphatieally of his sor- rows, and expresses the hope that he shall soon be in a financial shape to repay her for the kindness, and to take his little daughter to himself. The child had been with Mrs. Thomp- son about si xweeks before she was taken into the home of Mir. and Mrs. James East.

YAVAPAI MAN WAS
 WINNER AT FAIR.
(From Sundays Daily.l


 J. R. Alexander of Sycamore Creek reached the city yesterday and brings from that section samples of the fruit and agricultural products he raised and for which he was awarded blue ribbons at the late territorial fair.
 One of the premiums he received was for a novel apple product, known as the banana variety, several of which are on exhibition in this city. In flavor these apples carry the odor of the banana, and the taste may be easily distinguished. In color they are of a yellowish hue, and in addi- tion they are pronounced the most edible of any other brand. This va rietv is the first and the only ever raised in this county so far as known and they are pronounced as somewhat of a curiosity, owing to their large size and the unusual taste they have
 Alexander also was awarded the first prize for another variety out of the ordinary, that of the Black Ben Davis apple, box of which he also generously distributed to friends in the city. His entire fruit display was awarded first hOnors, and the col lection was pronounced in Phoenix the finest and best ever received, ow' ing to the quality and the variety of the product.
