MORALES A JoBBING POINT.

A commercial traveller from an east ern city, who stopped at Nogales a day or two last week remarked to TIE OASIS man: "Nogales has as bright a prospect as any town I have visited, and in the course Of the next few years it will enjoy a remarkable growth. It is the natural jobbing point of all the Sonora Sualoa and Lower California trade, and the de- mand for iobbing establishments here is becoming recognized, and will very shortly result in their com. ing here and doing business. There is no need for interior merchants in those states carrying heavy stocks, and large investments of money paid in customs duties. lt will be far more profitable to them GO pay the Nogales iobber little larger profit than they now pay the manufacturer, and get their goods in quantities Co suit when wanted, paying the duties on small shipments only, and saving the inyesf- ment of large amounts of money on large consignments The opening here offered jobbers will be speedily seized. and in the near future N0galcs w1iiDe the scat of a number of jobblng hons- es operating in the interior of McS- co.
 The force Of the position taken by the gentleman. and tbecleaTuess with which hc expressed hl views at once struck the scribe as well wortyof re- petition. That they embody some Of the points that go to assure Nogales d bright future there is no doubt; and that the opportunity presented wilibe seized by business men will surely fol- low. Already there is large trade with interior points in Mexico, and the growing mining camps in South- ern Arizona are also developing trade with Nogales that is assuming very grand proportions. Our mcr chants are doing the best they can to meet the demands of this trade: but that needed is the large and extensive stocks selected especially for such houses. The splendid openings here offered are tremendous, and wellworth attention of those in that line of bus mess.

stole Gold and smnggIea IL.


 Thursday the chief of police of Mag dalena was up from that place with one Of the news agents on the Sonora railroad named SamOra in custody. He was arrested at Magdalcna, on a telegram from the Mexican customs officials at Nogales. for smuggling out of Mexico, without paying the export duty. some S, GOO worth ofgold bullion. The customs officials here discovered that he had tlic gold on the American side of tue line. and as he had re- turned Go Gnaymas on ihs regular trip they wired for his arrest He is also in limbo on charge of stealing the bullion. lt was entrusted to him by a merchant in ilermosillo, named Kraft. to deliver to lawyer in Mag dalena. Instead 0f doing so he brought it onto Nogalc> and -muggled it across the line. When arrested SamOra cou- fessed his fault and offered to make restitution 50 far as possible. Hewas brought to Nogalcs, sonora, aud there he directed tlo Mexican authorities where to find the bullion on this side of the line, which they did.
 IL is credibly asserted that there will be a change of time on the rail- road the 30th inst. Sunday trains win not run, and passengers from the south will remain at Nogalcs until Monday morning, and those from the north win pass Sunday al Benson.
 Thursday afternoon Mir. Mark Shear CT of Blsbee went south Co attend to putting up some machinery on the mine in sonora owned and operaled by Messrs Ben Williams and West Howell of the Copper Queen Co.

POISONING AS A FINE Ant.
Italians Of Olden Is~-s Took Life in EsnY
SkE1ill Ways.

Italians Of OIden Ia.s Took Life in EanY
SRElfll Ways.
The art of poisoning in these days is
not cultivated with zeet or s&:ll. Even
in modern romantic and melocra-st.c
literature the poisoner works in what
the Boston journal calls a crude fash
ion; his one idea is to get the poison
into the stomach of the victim. De-
lection is almost inevitable and pun
ishment follows. Italians of the fif-
teenth, sixteenth and the first half of
the seventeenth century showed most
surprising skill. Italian Iemovers OF
enemies were welcome at many for
eign court, for they were subtle, sure
and, at the same time, well bred.
There was the attempt to kill Louis
XI. by rubbing an ointment on the cor
ner of the altar steps on which he
went to kneel. Gloves and bouquets
removed mighty men and delicate
women. Wallets pricked their masters
as they served them in their toilet.
Nails stepped in aconite put an end to
petty quarrels. Henry of CASTLE wore
boots one day and never took them off
again. A king of Grenada should
have refused the adornment of a
variegated royal jacket. There was
Jealous woman who smiled as
she saw her rival eat the half
of a delicious bird that had
touched the poisoned side of the knife
used by a kissable hand. A torch
borne before cardinal lighted him to
dusty death. Perfumed ducats slew
creditor before he could sign the re-
ceipt. There was poison in the POM
mel of the saddle that bore powerful
queen. 1t is said that Henry the en-
peror and Pope Clement XIV. were
poisoned in a draught of the holy
eucharist. There were still more sub
! tie devices, too horrible to tell; but
searchers into the dark yet splendid
history of the renaissance and students
of the Elizabeth drama may find
therein many a shudder.
Yet there is subtle poisoning even in
these degenerate days. The careless
plumber or the greedy landlord is, in
his way, a lessener of the race. There
are wall papers as efficacious as the
deathly books told of in the Arabian
Nights or by Dumas the elder. There
are public rooms where foul air induces
diseases. But these methods are slow
and bungling-not in keeping with our
boasted civilization. The smooth, the
subtle Italian was more merciful-that
is, when he merely accommodated a
master and did not work for his. own
pleasure.
