Almost A Miracle.

One of the most startling changes ever seen in any man, according to w. B. Holsclaw, Clarendon, Tex, was ef- fected years ago in his brother. He had such a dreadful cough" he writes, "that all our family thought he was going into consumption, but he began to use Dp. Kings New Discovery. and was completely cured byqten bottles. Now he is sound and well and weighs 2lS pounds. For many years our fam- ily has used this wonderful remedy for Coughs and Colds with excellent re- sults." It's quick, safe, reliable and guaranteed. Price 50 cents and l,OOS. Trial bottle free at H. H. Watkins drugstore.

Cerbat School House Burned.

Last Wednesday night the school building at Cerbat caught fire about ten o'clock and was entirely destroyed. Three men were occupying the build ing at the time, having gone there somewhat under the influence of liquor. They had gone to sleep, but it is thought that they had left candle burning and the candle either had fal- len to the floor or had been overturned by one of the men, and when awaken ed the place was in flames. One of the men siezed George Luckton and threw him through the window, probably saving him from a horrible death. As it was Luckton was so badly burned that he had to be brought to the hos pital at Kingman, suffering from severe burns on hls feet and body. It is not thought that his injuries will be permanent.
 The building is quite a loss to the district and it is probable that an in- quiry will be made into the responsi- bility for the fire.

 The big dike along the Colorado river in the Mohave valley is fast as- suming proportions of magnitude. The dike will be one of the largest in the west and will reclaim many thousands of acres of the richest farming lands in the state. Much of the reclaimed lands will be planted to alfalfa and cot ton as soon as it is we'll protected from the overflow of the river.
 Kingman people that visited the dry farm of the Redlands people, near Wallapai, report that it is one of the best looking stands of grain they have eyer seen in the state. The people at the head of the project believe that they will be able to grow a crop of grain in this valley any year and will hereafter plant greater acreage.

 A week from next Monday the first jury session of the Superior court will be held. There are only few import ant criminal causes on the docket, but there are about sixty civil causes that will have to be tried. The session pro- misses to be long one, as the court will make an effort to clear the docket of all the old causes. Now that the court will remain in session a month or more if necessary there is no reason why litigants cannot have their causes heard and decided.

 Last Sunday night a prisoner who was being taken from California to West Virginia in charge of a sheriH escaped from the officer near Topock by jumping through the window Of the toilet, while the train was running at a speed of thirty.five miles an hour. Deputy Sheriff Harris was called to Topock to assist in trailing up the escape, but not trace of him was found. The man weighed about lSO pounds and it would appear reasonable that he would leave some mark on the roadbed where he struck. He was handcuffed at the time and could not aid himself greatly in landing from the train. Nothing has been heard Of the man since that time. He was nnder arrest for forgery.

Wallapai and Chemehuevis Indians have been holding a big pow-wow at the village in Kingman this week, at which the deaths of many Wallapais have teen lamented. The recent suicide of Look-Up Dick seems to have stirred up the Indians, the aged scout having been about the last of the brothers of the late chief Sherum and Charley. The Indians were of the im- pression that warrant had been serv. ed on the Indian, and that he was to be prosecuted for stealing ties, but the court record shows that he was simply served with process to appear as wit ness in other causes. The Indians will keep up their memorial services for some days, but intend later in the year to have Big Cry to propitiate the God of Wrath from future troubles that may be in store for members of the tribe.
 From Moapa the railroad has been completed to St. Thomas and the work of ballasting is now under way. The road has been built with view of per. manency and heavy steel rails have been laid. This leads the public to believe that the railroad is built with view to extending it either to St. George or to a.,connection with the Western Railway at Chloride. The road will at present only secure a small haulage of salt and the product of the farms along the Muddy valley.
 H. G. Schader, the we'll known min- eral surveyor and civil engineer, came in from Oatman last week to attend a session of court as a witness and also to look after business affairs. Mir. Schader is also County Surveyor of this county and his services will soon be required to lay out the new roads that are to soon be built across the county.
 Peter McCardell, the we'll known mineral surveyor, has gone to Stock ton Hill, from which point he will make survey of the mines owned by the estate of James Mulligan. These properties are situated in Cerbat and Todd Basin and are considered very valuable mining properties. The mines will be patented this year.
 The rain and snow storm of last night soaked the valleys and mantled the mountains with coating of white. This is the latest snow that has ever fallen on the Wallapai mountains since the whites have inhabitated the country The storm will be of great benefit to those trying out the dry farming theory in the valleys of the county.
 The miner is in receipt of good story from the pen of John l.. Riggs, which we are unable to reproduce this week. The story deals with the last of the Nash troubles at Eldorado Can yon.
 A. F. Muter returned last Thursday night from Douglas, from which point he had been examing mining property.

JACK JO HNSON WILL QUIT

Waited on packing house breeze from dear old Chicago comes the sad tidIngS that John Arthur Johnson is not only through lacerating "hopes," but to even up for the treatment dealt him by the lily white promoters in crooked New York he not only is go- ing to store away his ring regalia, but he is going to slip his title to one of the black pretenders- Sam Lang ford and still keep the championship title in mourning. That's getting even If they wont let John Arthur collect where the collecting is rosy he is go- ing to make it tough for the game.
 This champion in passing does not say to which blackbird he intends to slip his title, but he intimates that he will allow Joe Jeanette and Sam Mo Vey to shake dice for the honors, Maybe, however-that is, if Jimmy Bronson can borrow his ear-Jeff Clarke, the Fighting Ghost" will be allowed to enter the game, say with handicap of Little Joe" or Big Dick" !" and take one chance while the title is in passing.
