OF about three-fourths OF a mile, at
tackled a train on the Southern Pa
cIfic Of Mexico, near Potam station,
about 4 o'clock the afternoon Of No

was q Mexican woman and she re-
ceived only a slight flesh wound IN
the left arm This information was
brought to El Paso by William Car
ney. American business man of Fl
PasO, who was on the train and com
ing from HermosillO at the time
Tnqui story @COIerfuI,7 Says.
Reports reaching the border pre-
viOusly were greatly exaggerated,
said Mr.. Carney Monday. In the first
place, the report Of general Yaqui
uprising was somewhat too colorful.
said Mr.. Carney, and served to keep
many American business men from
their work in Mexico. As to the at
tack on the train, IL was Of a minor
nature, for there were no distractions
on the tracks and the train never
stopped during the whole affair, he
said
aRrOmcOs" to Tres Marias.
As TO activities of the Yaquis, the
Sonora government is taking strong
measures to keep the Indians down
There are two kinds Of Taquis. Mr.
Carney said, "broncos" and -'mansos-
The latter are being rounded up and
sent to Tres Marias islands, off san
Bias, Topic, where a penal institution
is located. Alrady about 1900 have
been sent there. When all the sup
posedly tame" Taquis are on INT
islands, the intention IS to prOmul-
gate a law giving anyone a right 10
shoot a YaQui on sight.
As to the Indians being without
food and on the warpath for that rea-
son, Mr.. Carney said such was not
the case, but that Yaquis are just
naturally worse than the old Apaches
and so on the warpath just 20 be
fighting.

OBITUARY.

William Walker was born In South
Bristol, Kenosha County, Wisconsin, in
1916 and died November Ii, 1917, at
the age of II years. He was the son
of Joel and Marinda Walker, pioneer
settlers of Kenosha County.
In much the usual manner of farm
lads, William Walker was reared to
manhood, receiving a good common
school education and assisting his
father in clearing and improving the
home farm. 1t later came into his pos
session and he engaged in its eultiva-
ton until 1912, when he retired from
active labor and made his home in the
village of Pleasant Prairie.
In 1884 Mr.. Walker and family
moved to the state Of Nebraska, re-
turning to Kenosha County in 1899.
AT the age of 16 he crossed the plains,
going to California, returning by way
of the present site of the Panama Ca
nal, and from there by steamer to New
York City.
In 1872 Mr.. Walker married Miss
Josephine Mead, daughter of Edward
Mead, who was also one Of the early
settlers Of Kenosha County. To them
were born five children, Of whom four
survive him, two sons and two daugh-
ters, William Mead Walker and Joel
Aaron Walker who reside on the old
homestead, and Mrs. Josie Alma Kinds
OF Odell, Neb., and Mrs. Grace Rock
well of Pleasant Prairie. Besides the
/ wife and children to mourn the loss of
kind father and loving husband, Mr..
Walker is survived by one sister, Mrs.
J. B. Jackson Of Chicago, and also by
eleven grandchildren.
Politically he was staunch support
