Albert Sanchez was net injured when he was hurt.
 In effect that was the finding of a jury in the Superior court yesterday, deciding the case of the young Mex ican miner against the United Yer de Copper company for $5,O00 dam ages.
 The plaintiff alleged in his case that he was overcome by gas in a raise within a short time after lie had gone to work for the company, and. in falling about 30 feet, sustain cd injuries to his nose. Sanchez had testified he knew the smell of powder smoke, and that he had smelled smoke in the raise, but had remained up there while a fellow workman had gone elsewhere 10 procure a key for the air pipe.
 The question before the jury was two-fold in a way. It was up for decision whether Sanchez had re- naincd in the gss-chamber by reason of his negligence, and also whether the damage 10 his nose caused by the fall had injured him within the meaning of the law relating to per sonal damages.
 The case occupied two days for trsal and argument was completed about 5:3O yesterday afternoon The iury's verdict was brought in after supper and was in favor of the de fendant company.

BLACK CANYON NEEDING ROAD
 REPAIRS

Some one sent clipping from the Arizona Republican" to County Road Engineer Johnson, the other day. with the advice that he put some one to work on the Black Canyon road. The adviser failed to sign his name. However, whoever sent the article must have failed to read it, as it certainly gave Yavapai county the best of the argument on the pres ent condition of the road.
 Mir. Johnson says that in so far as his powers are concerned, he will keep busy after the roads carly and late and that all the possible good will be accomplished with the funds allotted for expenses. People wishing to make complaint about roads, need not be afraid to sign the complaints, as they can be considered in public, and need not be made secrets, as MT. Johnson says he is willing to talk roads to any resident any time. In many cacses nothing but talk can be done, as it is impossible to do every thing at once.
 There arc many roads in the coun- ty on whicch work is due to be done, and while the Black Canyon is a main road, it. is soon to be put in good shape by the bond issue work. Many other roads are suffering for improvements and patience Is neces- SHY among the people.
