By the barbers who will be forced to wit- ness such a sinful waste of the precious fluid this order is looked upon in the light of a barbarous and unusual punishment. Another serious kick that the knights of the razor have is against the rule that makes it incumbent upon them to disin- fect all the instruments used in their shops. They contend that this is impos- sible when applied to the literature which is such an attractive feature of each well regulated place and that an attempt at its enforcement is sure to drive trade away. The disadvantages, however, are not all on the side of the barbers. Customers are made to suffer likewise. Special at- terition is called to the order prohibiting the use of shops for dormitory purposes. This will work untold hardship on those who have been accustomed to pass a por- tion of each morning in luxurious dolce far niente while an attentive servitor by the use of hot towels removed from*their countenances the evidences of the mild and cheering excesses indulged in the night before. Altogether the rules seem to be destined to promote sanguinary as well as sani- tary conditions if they are enforced.

L e e e e HUSBAND TAKES LIFE OF BRIDE Jealousy the Cause of Awful Tragedy in Gila Valley. SRS Jose Valencia Stabs His Girl Wife After Charging Faithlessness, —_—— Special Dispatch to The Call. TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 17.—The people of Thatcher are aroused, over the terrible death which came to the twenty-day bride of Jose Valencia at the hands of her husband on Thursday night. The victim was one of the most beautiful girls in Gila Valley and had many admirers. She loved Valencia with all the ardor of her young life, for she was but 18 years old when she was led to the altar. Valencia was desperately jealous of his bride. He married her to take her away from yougg senors who were his rivals for her hand. The bride wanted to attend a ball on Thursday night and persuaded her hus- band to go with her. This function was the cause of the fatal stabbing. Return- ing home Valencia accused his wife of being false to him. He declared that she paid too much attention to other fellows, but she innocently protested that she acted as she always had done, in a man- ner becoming a pure woman. The couple, according to the story of the father of the girl, who was in the house at _the time, talked over the accusations, and he believed they had gone to bed in peace. During the night the father heard one cry of pain from his daughter, and springing from his bed rushed to her room. He found that Valencia had stabbed her and was frantic with rage a; Lis appearance. Valencia started towary the old man, swinging a knife which was dripping with the blood of his voung wire, but the father jumped into a bedroom and locked the door. Valencia tried to gain entrarce, but failing ran to the stable and saddled a horse. The old man notified Sheriff Sparks of the murder and he was soon in pursuit of Valencia with a_well armed posse. The trail was easily followed and the posse is close upon the murderer. The young woman was stabbed four times, receiving three wounds in the back and one in the neck which struck the jugular vein and caused death. Feeflng is intense against Valencia, but Sheriff arks will attempt to bring him back safely If he once Sombs upon him, —_— Suits Against Pythians.

BULLION THIEF “Jack” Winters Is Held for Trial Under $10,000 Bonds. Prisoner Acts as His Own Attorney and Asks Some Pointed Questions. CROCKETT, Aug. 17.—John Winters, charged with having robbed the vault of the Selby Smelting Company of bullion exceeding $280,000 in value, had his pre- liminary examination here this morning and pleaded guilty. The preliminary examination of Winters took place before Justice of the Peace Pratt. The great crowd which filled the courtroom was satisfied after the examination that Winters is not the fool many suppose him to be. When asked if he wanted a lawyer he replied that he walved that and also the examination. However, Lawyer Pres- ton proceeded to examine witnesses. Joseph, Bulger of the city office of the Belby Smelting Works was called to the stand, but his testimony amounted - to little, except as to the amount of unre- fined bullion shipped to the smelter the night of the robbery. John M. Owens testified to having locked sixteen sacks and four bars of bullion in the vaults on the evening of August 5. On opening the safe at 5 o'clock on the morning of the 6th he discovered the robbery. The sacks and the four bars had been stolen. He followed the tunnel to the mouth, and, with other workmen, traced the red pepper trail to the bay shore, where he found two bars and some sacks. He dfd not know the value of the gold In the safe on the night of the robbery. Sheriff Veale Testifies. Harry Middleton, an assayer employed by the Selby people, testified that he had helped to check up the loss and placed it at $283,000. He was present and identified some of the gold bars when they wera brought out*ef the bay by the divers. Sheriff R. R. Veale explained how he and Constable Moiles on the morning of the robbery went over the ground care- fully, looking for clews. After examining the ‘books of the smelter to see what men were working on the day and night shifts they finally decided to investigate Win- ters' cabin. Veale said that, in company with Moiles, Morse and Jackson, he vis- ited Winters' cabin, finding many things A pistol was found covered with mud of the kind that came out of the tunnel. Cloth such as was used on the cover which fitted over the mouth of the tun- nel was found, together with a spade and other suspicious articles. The Sheriff then told how he and Moiles went to San Francisco and saw Winters after his arrest, and that Winters had ex- plained to him the precautions he had taken to be sure of his haul. He had watched the steamer Sunol stop and then he went to a place where he could see how much bullion was locked up in the safe. When this was done he went to his cabin, got his_drill and went to work. Veale was at Vallejo Junction when the divers brought vp the gold and Winters was on hand to .nelp them out. He said that, Winters was inclined to be fair with the officials who were looking after the gold. ‘Winters Asks Questions. ‘When Veale had finished the Judge asked Winters if he wanted to question 9 the witness. Winters replied with a smile that he did., . _ *Mr. Veale, how far was it from the entrance of the tunnel?”’ asked Winters. “About four feet,”” replied Veale. “How_deep was the hole under the smelter?” “About three feet.” “Then it would be possible for the man to crawl into that hole under the vault without getting inside the smelter, wouldn't {t?" asked Winters. “It would,” was the reply. This answer brought a roar of laughter, as it was evident that Winters had made the Sheriff admit that no burglary had been committed, as he had never been in- side the smelter at all. The court then asked Winters if he had any further questions to ask and Winters replied that he was through. The court then held him to appear before the Su- perior Court to answer to the charge of burglary and fixed his bonds at $10,000. The officers took Winters to the scene of the robbery this afternoon to help lo- cate the rest of the missing bullion, sirefrrbielelnlninledeledeellileielded @ BELIEVE BOTH WL SURRENDER British Government Sat- isfled Boer War Is About Ended. —_— .

He is thus brought to see thousands of such cases every year, the THE GREATEST OF most of whom return to their homes to be treated by cor- T e spondence. The principal remedy he re- AMERICA'S SANITARIUNS. | semmeds e'52 such cases is Peruna, which every woman should have who has any affection of this kind. In view of the great multitude of women suffering from some kind of female dis- ease and yet unable to find any cure, Dr. Hartman, the renowned gynaecologist, has announced his willingness to direct the treatment of as many cases as may make application to him during the summer months without charge. The treatment will be conducted by cor- respondence. The doctor will prescribe all medicines, applications, hygienic and dlet- ary regulations necessary to complete a cure. The medicines prescribed can be obtained at all drugstores. This offer will prevail during the summer months. Any woman can become a regular patient by sending a written statement of her age, condition of life, history and symptoms of her derangements. All cases of female diseases, including menstrual irregularities, displacements, ulcerations, inflammations, discharges, irritation of the ovaries, tumors and dropsy of the abdomen, should apply at once and become registered as regular pa- tients. All correspondence will be held strictly confidential. No testimonials of cures will be given to the public except by the express wish of the patient. No one knows better than Dr. Hartman how much the women suffer with diseases peculiar to their sex. No one knows bet- ter than he does how many of them suf- fer with such diseases.

DYNAMITE-LADEN CARS BLOW UP Southern Pacific Freight Train Demolished by Impact. ASHLAND, Or., Aug. 17.—An explosion of dynamite which occurred this after- noon at 4:30 o’clock at tunnel No. 7, six and a halt miles north of Glendale, demol- ished an engre freight train on the South- ern Pacific. An extra freight train which left here at 9:30 o'clock this morning, composed of twenty-six cars, with three engines, was Just emerging from tunnel No. 7, which is a short one, on a sharp curve in the track about 100 feet long, when the train parted, the air sudden jar causing the dynamite In the rear two cars to explode. The entire train was destroyed, except one engine, and it was damaged Somewhat. There were ten cars of melons, two of powder, two of fruit and the remainder of miscellaneous cargoes. The explosion was felt for miles around. A car filled with acid took fire and the flames spread to the dry brush and tim- ber, causing a fierce conflagration. Cow Creek, which runs along the side of the track at this point, was filled with debris | and burning wreckage. The buildings of the Victory mine, a half-mile distant, were badly shattered and in a house a half-mile from the scene a sick woman as thrown from her bed by the force of the ghock, her arm and shoulder being dislocated in the fall. The train crew miraculously escaped with only a few bruises and scratches. A number of tramps who were riding in a half closed car, escaped, it is believed, but until the debris is cleared the loss of life cannot be known. At least eleven cars were atoms and cannot be accounted for, even their trucks being missing. Wrecking crews have been sent to the scene of the disaster, and at midnight more than 200 | men are at work clearing the track. The | tunnel, fortunately, appears rot to have been damaged, though the track and road- bed are torn up for a great distance. It is not expected that the three wrecking crews will have the track cleared and re- paired before to-morrow afternoon. e The War Bill of a Century.

Speclal Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Aug. 17.—The effort of the Canadian officials to tax Alaska Indians who hunt and fish on the navigable river Chilcat has resulted in failare, ac- cording to a letter written by C. H.

Gibbons says: “Much satisfaction and amusement is manifested here over the sequel to the a | action of the Canadian officlals above Klukwan in taxing the Indians for cross- | ing the movable line in eanoes, fishing, hunting, ete. The Indians, having more | independence than the cringing Ameri- can citizen, were preparing to take the law into their own hands and wipe the | custom-house off the banks of the Chil- | cat, and its occupants, also, if they re- sisted.
