Senior Octaviano YaulZ is a musical
wonder and his performance upon the
guitar last night was superior to any
thing of the kind hat has cen pro-
duced here for a long time, if ever his
equal appeared before an Ell Paso aud

rendered some of his own excellent
compositions asst night.
Senorita Ursula Lopez and Senior J.

made an acceptable feature of the en-

novel one to Americans.
A kaleidoscope pleased the audience
between the stage performances by
presenting some moving pictures new
to FL Pasoans.

The trial of Newton Matthews. the
custom house ~janitor at Maria for kill

A verdict vas rendered last night at
Q o'clock after the jury had beer out
four and one-half hours and came as
a surprise to those who confidently eX-
pected that Matthews would be cleared.
Matthews was first tried in this
ty but the jury failed to agree and the
case was taken to Marfa on a change

w. T. Sapp. the famous OSSifed man,
who was on exhibition in Ell Paso dur
ing the carnival and afterward spent
several weeks here enjoying h eli
mate, lie dead in Albuquerque, having
died Wednesday night, and there is
some mystery connected with his
death.
Sunday night Mr.. Sapp and his man
ager arrived in Albuquerque n went
10 a lodging house. A bowl of hot
bread and milk was procured and MI.
Sapp ate freely of it. After eating the
milk and bread he became YER sick.
Some of the solution was give to a dog
and the dog also became sick. From
that time until his death Mr.. Sapp
grew steadily, worse.
Though it seems that his fatal illness
dated from the eating of the bread and
milk no autopsy was held and the body
was prepared for shipment to Leban-
on, KY, where Mr.. Sapp was born and
which place he called home, though
seldom there. His manager, James
Warren, was with him. as was also
Mr.. Warren's assistant, Thomas Moore
and the two men are heart broken over
the death of their friend. with whom
they had travelled for years and to
whom they had become attached with
brotherly affection.
Nowhere on earth is ther a parallel
case to MI. Sapp's. At the age of z
his muscles commenced to waste away
and when. his body was reduced to al
most nothing but skin and bone. his
joints began to ossify. Every joint
in the body, except those of the left
arm and fingers of that hand, became
asc immovable as block of marble.
and every muscle turned to bone.
Growth ceased when the qualification
tOk place and his body never became
larger than that of a child.
Though like a marble shatue in body,
he had a bright mind and obtained a
good education. He wrote his own
life story and revised it annually. He
talked freely and entertainingly to
people who called to see him. He was
always happy and his patience has been
the subjec tot many sermons.
For nearly twenty years he has been
on exhibition and visited $1,000 towns
of the United States and Canad. When
on exhibition his manager would lift
him up out of his baby carriage, in
which he lived. and hold him up be-
fore the stalled spectators. His stiff
body refined a horizontal position
while the manager used his arm like
the handle of a carpenters wooden
plane. The lower side of his head and
body and his right arm were perfectly
flattened from his having lain on them
for nearly forty years. Hi.
When his manager would life him up
in the above mentioned name some
of the audience, especially if there were
any women present, would utter a
sympathetic exclamation. but Mr.. Sapp.
smiling. would say, That's all right,
ladies, it don't hurt me at ALL"

and two brothers reside in Lebanon.

proving to be one of the best in that
territory. This property is now being
developed rapidly and rich ore is be-
ing shipped out every week.
Another property Mr.. Howle located
and developed is the Howle group
which he sold this month for $4,000
He has been in mining exclusively
since he went to Arizona n has made
a comfortable fortune in h business.
Feeling the need of a more central To-
cation he came to Ell Paso a short time
ago and has opened offices here. The
main feature of his business will be
buying and selling mines and there
are few men in the country who know
more about the business. He has the
confidence of all the mining men in the
east. having sold them many pieces of
property in the west n in every case
the property has turned out even better
thar he represented. He is of that
class of mining men who consider noth
ing more hurtful to h business than
misrepresentation and unless he a
July recruitment a liiiS liz wal
no one to invest in it,
The other member of the firm. Mr..
Goss, came here from Colorado, V
ing been in the mining business in
Cripple Creek and other places for %
years. He is also a practical mining
man and has been successful in the
business. Mr.. Goss will be the Office
manager for h company and will at
tend to all the real estate business for
the firm. They are both energetic men
and being men of means as well as X
p~erience and a thorough knowledge of
the business will prove of material
worth to the mining and general in
~terests of Ell Paso.
The offices Howle and company have
fitted up in the Stevens building will
excite the envy of every n who sees
them. They have half of the ground
floor and it is fitted up with the finest
furniture to be had in Ell Paso. All
the floors are carpeted with moquette
and heavy curtains with several re-
ception Dom where patrons car con-
suit with the management without be-
ing overheard by loafers and others.
The heavy expenditures they have
made on their offices alone give suf-
ficient evidence that they are here for
business.
One advantage this firm has is that
of being already well known in all
mining countries. They hail from two
of the best mining states in the union
and bring with them a connection
with investors as well as sellers that
few men in the business possess. They
propose handling all kinds of real
property, including mines. ranches,
timber lands and city real estate in
Ell Paso and elsewhere.

ENGLISHMEN
AND ARIZONA MINES.
There Will Probably Be Some Inter-

and Morenci AS a Result of his Visit

A quartette of very wealthy English
men passed through Ell Paso the other
day. They put up at the Sheldon ho-
tel for the night but left the city early
the following morning. They were en-
route to the mineral belt around Cliff
ton and Morenci in Graham county.
Arizona. For many years hat parti-
cular section has been recognized by
all mining men who know anything
about hat country as the richest and
most valuable mineral section in this
or, perhaps, any country.
For many years past there have only
been two large companies in there.
One was an English syndicate and the
other Phelps-Dodge of Detroit, Mich.
The English syndicate built the rail-
road in there and have developed their
property along conservative lines.
characteristic of their nationality. The
ore is copper of the richest kind and
there is plenty of it. Recently an
other company controlled by Montana
men have located in there on what is
known as the Butte nine. Other small
er fry ave gone in also. and now these
four Englishmen have designs on the
district.
1t is said that they can control capt.
tai to an unlimited extent. and tho in
are that some important de-
v~elopments will result arou Clifton
and Morenci as a result of their visit.

A FEIT,OW hv the anna Of R

A FELLOW by the n anne of Bak- CT over on Kings river has been seized by the postal authoriti es for using the mails for fraudulent purposes. Baker had 8 little store at the east end of the rail road bridge on Kings river and so far as the people of that sec tion knew that was his only bus mess, but some large business concerns of Kansas City and oth- CT places had been inform ed by Baker that he represented the Kings River Mining & Smelling Co. with a capital stock of S70, = 900, all paid up. This sta tement had been furnished in order to secure credit for goods, at the rate of 5000 worth month. Before extending credit a Kansas City house sought further infor- nation to find that no such a con- cern had existence. Bakers let ters were turned over to an in- spec5or and now he languish- es in jail at Fort Smith.

THE following timely argu- ment is made by the Searcy Beacon: "It appears to the Beacon that the people of Arl1an : sas should begin to wake up to their own interest. We are in the habit of shipping our cat tie and hogs to St. Louis and Kansas City and then buying them back in the form of lard, ba- con and canned goods, shipping our fruits and vegetables away and paying some smart chap for canning them, then buying them back at double price. Cotton and wooden mills, canning fac tories and packing houses should be established in our midst, which would not only give employment to our surplus labor, but keep thousands of dollars continuously in circulation here which goes to enrich people living in other StateS.o
