Death of John Rock

John Rock, one of Tombstone's
prominent citizens and business
men died at that place about noon
Sunday after a brief illness.
Broncho-pneumonia, couple d
with an attack of acute appendicitis
are given as the cause of death. Mr..
Rock was stricken with appendicitis
last Wednesday, this being the first
time in his life he had ever been i'll
but it was not thought an operation
would be necessary. Friday, how
ever, he developed pneumonia, and
already in a weakened condition
from the effects of the appendicitis
attack he failed to rally, having
been unconscious the last "a hours
before death.
The, deceased had been engaged
in the mercantile business in
Tombstone for the past eighteen
years, and was also the owner of a
large cattle ranch near Turner, in
this county, On which he also spent
considerable part of his time. and
numbered among his holdings
considerable herd of cattle. He
was a former supervisor, and was
for some time member of the COM
mission of state institutions.
John Rock was a man of unusual
ability and took much interest in
good roads and other public i'm
provements. He served the county
as supervisor. for three successive
terms, doing much in his official
capacity for the betterment of the
county roads.
Deceased was SO years of age,
and besides his wife leaves bro
.ther in St. Paul, Mimi.

A Smart School Teacher

said to me last winter: Every
permanent tooth saved is better for
a child than one hundred dollars
in savings bank. Many children
have dead teeth-when the nerve
dies a gumboil" forms on the
gum. The dead teeth poison the
blood, and if the child is exposed
to a disease it can hardly help TAX
ing it. If, I had the space to ex-
plain the pathology of the apical
peridental membrane, you would
then believe that the dead teeth
and gumboils are responsible for
many systemic disorders.

Deportation Trial in

ed with kidnapping for their alleged
participation in the deportations
two years ago that followed the
/. w. w. trouble in the Warren
District is now we'll under way
The big case was started Monday
in the Majestic theater, in this city
and will continue, it is expected for
at least a month. The charge
against Thomas E. Kelly, Joe
Harris, Charles Baer, DR.. Charles
F. Hawley and Joe Horton. all of
Bisbee, was dismissed at the open
ing of the hearing upon the request
of the county attorney, who stated
that he did not have enough evi-
dence against them to warrant
holding them longer. About
twenty-five other Warren District
residents names were also stricken
from the complaint, these persons
having already been tried among
the first 40 cases completed, and
bound over to the superior court for
trial upon their own request.
The testimony so far has been
without any startling features. The
principal evidence offered against
the defendants by the states wit
nesses, the majority of whom testi
fed in the previous hearings. has
been to the effect that they were
seen on the day of deportatlons,
associating with the hundreds of
other citizens who were armed on
that day.
The appearance of Col. John c.
Greenway, general manager of the
Calumet & Arizona Mining Com
pany, in court Monday was a sur
prise to both sides, as it was not
expected that he would appear for
hearing until his individual case
was called on September 18th, with
that of Harry G. Wheeler, J. J.
Bowen and others in the third
group.
Court reporters, who are taking
down the testimony, are finding
their task no easy one, as many of
the witnesses for the state are Mex
leans, Austrians and natives of
other foreign lands whose highly
favored accents make their testi
mony almost unintelligible.
Justice w. c. Jack is conducting
court from the stage of the big
theater, the defendants occupying
the center section of seats. The
state has adopted the method of
having each witness called testify
to having seen a certain number of
: the defendants. In the majority of
cases, the witnesses are handed a

which they have previously check
