"Black Jack" in his time, was
a noted scout and guide for the
government in the many fierce
tights with the red devils of the
northwest coast. We first met
him at the old Maricopa Wells in
August, 1869. and could relate
not a few of his many escapades
and hair breath escapes from
foes-bOth red and white. He,
like many other pioneers Of Ari

St. Johns Happenings
Fronth observer
Stagnation.

Help Us to boost st. Johns and
Apache county. Stagnation is a
curse to any place, or to any
class of people. 1t is a sure and
certain indication of mental de
cadence. Mankind possesses two
orgons Of vision one of the eye
and ore of the mind; of the two,
the mind is the superior one, for
with the mind one can see much
farther than with the eye. But
if the mind, from disuse or from
Indifference, becomes stagnent to
a degree approaching mental1m
becility, then at this stage. the
eye alone guides and controls
the activities. Water cannot rise
above its source; and, if the blind
lead the blind, all will surely fall
into the ditch-of mental deca-
dence A community that sits
still and does nothing but snap
dollars, never can prosper IN ma
terial things; and the same con-
ditions prevail with the ideas.
for like results are sure to follow
IN both instances mental ant
business stagnation Let us tr
for a renaissance for ST, John
and for Apache county.

Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachiau Tube When this tube
is inflamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear ring
will be destroyed forever; nine out of ten
cases are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure

New York Letter.

A friend in New York CITY
writes rs breezy letter full of
interesting matter, but as it is {,
friendly personal letter, we can
do no more than make few ex-
tracts from it.
He says in part: "At last YOU
have decided to let others do the
prospecting with its weary
grind, while YOU sit in the sac
tum sactorium and tell how the
country should be run. In the
language OF the street you are
to LET George do it.
A Bosten paper has two col
umn article account of rich
strike of teurmalines near Lew
istOn, Maine. In this connec-
ton he says: 81 think we made
many mistakes in the early days
looking for silver and gold, in
stead of precious stones. You
are in a good section of Arizona
for precious or semi-precious
stones. and | believe that at no
distant day the output OF prec-
ious stones, in these United
States, will far exceed in value
all other minerals combined.

Everything on Broadway runs
to electricity. but it takes some
thing out of the ordinary to at
tract. The most marvellous dis
play used for advertising is one
about so by 100 feet, which
shows an arena with two char
lots, each drawn by four horses
racing like mad. To complete
the illusion, the ground appears
to fly backwards under the feet
of the horses.
We are just now on the eve of
an exciting election. Roosevelt
is writing the republican plat
form, and can safely predict
that it will be met by one from
the Saratoga convention. Muir
ply of Tammany is trying to
side-track Mayor Gayner into
the governors char, but New
York City needs him more than
does the state. This is lean
year for the tiger, as Mayor
Gayner is giving the city busi-
ness, and not a political admin
istration.
The city is growing sorapidly,
that one only needs to absent
himself for one year, to find upon
his return that he is almost
stranger in a strange land. The
Pennsylvania Tunnels, from Jer-
sey City, under the Hudson

New Orleans, Aug. 24.-Mamie Nc
Loughlin, a young girl of eighteen
years, who shot and killed her false
lover, Hugh Smith, Jr., a wealthy sa-
loon keeper, as he walked the streets
with her rival, was acquitted by a
jury In the district court here on a
plea of the tunwritten law" The jury
was out only twenty-five minutes.
The announcement of the verdict
was received with cheers by the mem
bers Of the Era club, an organization
Of women, and the other spectators
who filled the courtroom to a point of
suffocation. During the progress of
the trial mobs outside of the criminal
court building fought with the depu-
ties and policemen for admittance.
Miss Mclaughlin herself took the
stand just before both the defense and
the prosecution rested without argu-
ment.

had promised to marry me, but he did
not keep his word. 1 went to the
