 All those who have seen the work of this young artist and after wards made her acquaintance are surprised and struck by her youth and raivette, and are unable to re- concile her few years with the maturity of treatment displayed in her creations. She modestly at- tributes the merit of her paintings to the excellent tuition which ' he has had under the well known master of landsca pc, Mir. Gonzalo Arguelles. The latter, however, who is very proud of his pupil, at- tributes Miss Mix's remarkable progress 10 her own application and natural talent for the work.
 Miss Mix has only been taking lessons from Mir. Arguelles some five or six months, and previous to this her only tuition was in the schools of California, where she perfected herself in drawing. She says that she loves her work and that she has practiceG much alone. which is accountable in a great de- gree for her wonderful advance ment.-Mexican Herald.

An Ate m oted Robbery Frustrated.

About 9 o'clock Saturday night, just as the stores were about clos- ing, two Mexicans entered the Chinese store djacent to the pho- tograph gallery of w. J. Neurnann and made an assault upon the two proprietors, with the intention of robbery. One shot was fired, and the bullet passed through the parti- tion between the store and the, photograph gallery, missing nar- rowly the photographer, who was just about starting to the assistance of the Chinamen whose cries for help he had heard. Siezing his re- volver Mir. Neumann ran out of the front gallery and into the store. As soon as he entered the robbers ran out the back door of the store through to Nelson avenue, thence, it is supposed, across the line. It is stated that they reached the money drawer and got out of it about twenty dollars.

Duffy represented Petligrew, and District Attorney W. A. O'Connor appeared for the Territory.
 Monday the case of the Territory vs. Ben Hayes was taken up and tried by a jury. The jury took all of Monday and the greater part of Tuesday. The jury disagreed, standing seven for acquittal and five for conviction. Mir. J. T. Mat. thews appeared for the defendant and the district attorney for the Territory.
 This is a misdemeanor case growing out of the lease by Hayes of Carbon's milk ranche and dairy business last summer while the latter was in Oregon. Fraud was claimed by Carbon, and a warrant of arrest brought Hayes back from Douglas where he went after quit ting the ranche.
 Tuesday Pettigrew made appli cation to the territorial court com missioner for a writ of habeas cor pus, returnable before Judge Doar at Tombstone Thursday at noon and on that day Sheriff Saxon took the defendant to Tombstone for z hearing. The object of the applica ton was to obtain a reduction 0 the bail ($l,000 in each case, which the defendant alleged in hi' petition to be excessive and not il proportion to the offence. Franl J. Duffy, counsel for the accused and District Attorney w. A O'Connor went to present thei case to Judge Doan.
 Thursday evening Under Sherif Lowe returned from TombSton, with Pettigrew. It is reported tha Judge Doan reduced the bail t, one thousand dollars.

JACKSONVILLE HAS
 TELEPHONE LINES

Wilsonville, May S.-(Special )-An im- portant farmers telephone exchange will soon be constructed at Wilsonville and connected with the telephone exchange and long distance lines of the Southern Bell Telephone company in Columbiana. The exchange will be constructed by an association of business men at Wilson vile and farmers living in the surround ing country. The association, of which E. O. Black is president has signed con- tract to connect with the Southern Bell Telephone company at Columbiana. Lines will extend out of the new Wilsonville ex- change, when completed, to reach liar persville, Vincent and other points and furnish service to about 25 subscribers.
 There is considerable activity among farmers in this vicinity in the matter of securing telephone service in their homes The extension of telephone service to the farm Is valuable to the merchants and business men in the nearby cities and towns, placing them in constant communi- cation with an important element of their trade There are a number of farmers telephone lines in Shelby county, and the progressive farmers are realizing the value and advantage of being in such close touch with their friends and neighbors and the business centers.

A CLOSE SHAVE
Many of Them Happening Every Day
 but Soon Forgotten.

Close slaves would be of more fre- quent occurrence but for the tender faces of many men, which will not per- init of shaving often. Heretofore, nothing has been said Tn these columns about poslam, a new skin discovery, in connection with it's use after shaving. Its publicity and sales have been con- fined almost exclusively to its remark able properties as an eczema cure; it stops the itching at once and cures the worst cases In a few days. While the application of poslam after shaw ing Is one of its minor uses. such as for pimples, the complexion, etc., shavers will find 1t a revelation, as It does for abrasions, roughness and severe scrapings what it does for all manner of skin diffculties-heals and cures in a few hours. It is the only article possessing real antiseptic and curative value that has ever been ex- plotted for this purpose and will sooth and tone up the skin as no toilet prep aration could possibly do.
 Poslam can be had for DO cents at any reliable druggists, particularly Jacobs Pharmacy, who make spe- cialty of 1t. Or the Emergency Labo- ratories, No. 32 West Twenty fifth street, New York city, will send trial supply free by mail to any one who will write for It. This Is sufficient to sho ow results in 24 hours.

WARNER MAKES BOND.
New Decatur Postmaster Spends One
 Night In Jail.


 Decatur, May al.)-Charlie Austin and others of New Decatur went to Huntsville this morning to make bond for Postmaster William A. Warner of New Decatur, who was arrested here yes terday and taken to Huntsville on an fn- dictment found by the federal grand jury at Huntsville, charging him with short age in his accounts some months ago.
 Owing to the fact that there was much excitement in Huntsville last night, caused by the killing of J. Robert Jones and the fatal wounding of A. D. Mc- powell by W. l.. Halsey late yesterday, Postmaster Warner was unable to arrange bond last night and spent the night in Jail.
 The arrest of Postmaster Warner has created small sensation in New Deca- tur. His friends say that he will be able to prove his innocence of the charge to the satisfaction of any jury. By some 1t is said that politics has had something to do with the matter.
