4 New Epidemic.

Last week and this new epidemic seems to have struck Nogales. The excitement over the arrest of Messrs. Pascholy, Hermosillo, ct. al., had hard ly died out before the editor of THE OASIS was in custody for an alleged libel on Sam F. Webb. Before night of the same day ex-Mayor Proto and Councilmen Gebler were lin hook" on charges of misdemeanOr, said alleged misdemeanors consisting of having sold goods to the town at the time they were councilmen. Monday the heavy hand of the law was laid on License Tax Collector D. J. Cumming on a charge of extortion and intimida- tion, in coercing Chinese dealers to pay their licenses by threats of i'm prisonment. Times in NOgales have been lively for courts and lawyers.
 Monday MT. Gebler asked con- tinuance of his case until Friday, to secure counsel, which request was granted, and on Tuesday the same order was asked and granted in the case of ex-Mayor Proto. In the case of License Collector Cumming the same order was granted-continuance until Friday.

The License Matter.

The outcome or the tTldl at CilJleH- den of the Nogales business men who had refused to pay their licenses was conveyed to the public in the printed telegram from Mr Herrera to MT. Dessart which went out with TIE OASIS Saturday morning By the train the mayor, council and other gentle men interested, returned and further particulars were gleaned from them. It appears tEat the decision of Judge Vanderlp was that those before him had committed an infraction tf the ordinance and the sentence was that each should pay the same fine, on each count, of fifty dollars, less the difference betweeen the amount of his license and the highest license on the schedule, and pay his license and costs beside. e. z. The highest license was sl5 per quarter. Those having that to pay were mulcted $50 fine, the license $l5, and costs, making S65 and costs One whose license was Sl0 would have to pay s less than the otber and so on through the list. or course an appeal was taken 10 the dis trict court, and the bonds were pre- pared and filed Tuesday
 Judge W. II Barnes of Tucson, has been engaged by those contesting the validity of the licenses, and is asso- ciated with General Williams in at sending to tue litigation on that side of the house. llearTivcd from Tucson Monday and immediately took hold Of ihe work in hand.
 Monday License Collector Cumming under instruction from the mayor and town council, again took up the work Of collecting licenses, and at evening reported collections footing up total of si0O. several paid under protest, and all had paid except those who were contesting- one or two who paid afterward. 1t is stated that the lDAa4 VI Nfl lut liAtiiSSFf n S'tiNNN1A' foots up s2ll per quarter. Deducting the twenty-five per cent allowed for collection, the net return to the town treasury would be s52.75 per month.
 Monday afternoon License Collector D. J. Cumming was arrested en a charge of extortion and intimidation in compelling Chinqmen to pay him money under the cloak of authority. He was arraigned before Justice J. $. Taylor, examination set at l0a m. Tuesday, and released on his own re- cognizance.

A Telephone Message in Switzerland and
Its Consequences to an American.
"When / was in Switzerland" said
the returned traveller, II had an acci-
dent happen to me that almost caused
my death. Twas stopping at hotel
at the foot of a mountain and, one of
the hottest nights ever felt anywhere,
went to my room and opening up
everything / went to bed and to sleep,
for | was dead tired after long, hard
days climb on the mountain. don't
know how long slept, but for a long
time before awoke was dreaming
that l had died and gone below, and
had struck the hottest place that local
ity had to offer. / rolled over in tor
ment, and squirmed, and had really a
devil of time, but at last came to my
senses enough to get up and see what
was the matter. Then l discovered
that all my windows had been closed,
fire made in the big stove in the
room and foot thick of cover laid
over me.
II was, so weak could hardly stand
when first got out of that actual hot
bed of Satan, but a few minutes at the
window, which opened, refreshed me
very much, and as soon as could got
down to the office. There l found a
mild-mannered chap, and / am ready
to bet he never got such tongue
lashing as l gave him before he had a
chance to either apologize or fight. /
knew he wouldn't fight, and after
awhile he began to explain, The first
thing he said was to the effect that /
ordered the fire and extra cover and l
went at him worse than ever. No
doubt / would have sailed in and
kicked him through skylight, but my
racket raised the proprietor, very nice
fellow, and he came out to see what
the matter was. Well, 1t took him a
long time TO get 1t straight, but it
seems that the wire from the telephone
In my roornA-the- hotel was new and
had all the latest wrinkles had some
how got mixed up with wire that led
up to the other hotel on the mountain
above the snow limo, and that q guest
up there in trying to telephone to his
hotel chap that he was freezing TO
death aud wanted fire and cover, and
the whole business got onto my wire
and my hotel chap had got the mes
sage as he thought, from me, and
