 oarts Tomorrow

Miss Zannibel Douthitt, of Hazel street, leaves tomorrow evening for Nogales, Arizona, to accept a posi- ton as first year teacher in the pub lie schools of that place.
 Miss Douthitt is a graduate of the Indiana State Normal school. Since graduation she has been one of McKeesport's most successful and popular teachers.
 She will be greatly missed in the educational and social circles of our city. It is with feeling of re- gret that her many friends bid her goodbye. but they all join in wish ing her God-speed.
 It is hoped that her new work will prove most pleasant, and that she may have the success there that she has enjoyed here in her own home city.-McKeesport (Pa.) Daily News.

Was Misinformed.

MT. Alfredo Monteverde, of Her mosillo, writes THE OASIS that the paragraph recently appearing in these columns, upon the authority of Doctor Ales Hrdlicka, the nat uralist, to the effect that the re- mains of Miller and Remley, the two Americans killed by the Va quis a couple of years ago, remain ed unburied by the wayside where they fell, was incorrect, and that no doubt Dr. Hrdlicka had been misinformed.
 Mir. Monteverde states that doubt less Dr. H. saw the bones of some one at the place he designated, but that they must have been those of Yaquis who died of wounds re- ceived in battle near Bacum.
 Both Miller and Remley were friends to Mir. Monteverde, and one of them was Masonic brother. For which reasons the gentleman who writes, who was at that time at Torin, interested himself in se- curing the remains of the two un- fortunate Americans, and was given every assistance by the command ant of the First Military Zone, General Luis E. Torres, who or dered the remains taken into Torin. Within seven or eight days after their death General Torres had secured the remains and they were delivered to Mir. Monteverde at Torin.
 It was the intention of Mir. Mon teverde to forward the bodies of the two unfortunate gentlemen to their friends and relatives, but at that time communications were so in- secure and the roads so dangerous, on account of the depredations of the Yaquis, that he was compelled to abandon the plan, and they were buried in the cemetery at Torin.
 THE OASIS very cheerfully makes this statement in behalf of Mir. Monteverde.

Taken to the Highway.

Monday afternoon Messrs. A. E. Crepin and Nat Crocumb, of Pata- gonia, reported to the sheriff's office by telephone from Washington Camp, that they had been held up on the highway and robbed. Later in the evening they came to Noga- les and gave the particulars of the hold-up.
 The two gentlemen were going from Patagonia to Washington Camp in a buggy, and at point on the road, about three miles from the latter named place, they were stopped by young man named Harry Whipple, we'll known to everybody in that part of the county, who was heavily armed, and demanded their money.
 Not quite comprehending the meaning of the young man, Crepin said
 II have but little money with me, Harry, but if you need some come to Patagonia and l will lend you all you want"
 q don't want to borrow, but l do want what you have with you. This is no joke. l mean business. Get out and deliver"
 The two gentlemen climbed out of the buggy and delivered what money they had amounting to $9.50 in the aggregate. The young highwayman proposed also to take their watches and chains, but they argued him out of that idea While they were still on the ground, an other team hove in sight down the road.
 "Who is that coming up the road?" asked the new road agent.
 "That is Dick Farrel," was the reply.
 'He is just the man 1 want to meet. Nothing would afford me greater pleasure than to rob my old friend, Dick Farrel. You gen. tlemen get into your buggy and drive on while proceed to hold up MT. Farrel."
 The two gentlemen did as Whip pie directed, and shortly after they reached Washington Camp, MT. Farrel came in and reported that Whipple had stopped and robbed him, but he did make known the amount of his loss. It was after ward learned that he had been re- lieved of $S.50 and his gold watch.
 The newly-fedged highwayman has always borne most excellent reputation, and is we'll known and liked. His friends are at loss to account for his sudden and sensa- tional departure from the paths of rectitude.

Now that a new trial is impos-
sible in Cuba, I ask the cooperation

I will present myself to answer any
charges that may be brought against
me, by or through any legally con-
stituted authority. growing out Of

INTERL0CkING PLANT.
ILLINOIS CENTRAL WILL SAVE
MANUAL LABOR AND MONEY
AT CAIRO.

The Illinois Central iG installing an
electric interlocking plant at Cairo,
Ill, which gives promise Of proving
especially valuable. The plant is To-
Gated at the junction Of the Illinois
Central with the Mobile and Ohio,
and includes twenty three levers,
operating fifteen switches, fourteen
signals and one movable point frog.
From the junction point the two roads
pass over the single tracks Of the ILL
nois Central up to and across the
bridge over the Ohio river. without
any interlocking plant the roads would
DO compelled to stop their trains at
the junction. which would be espe-
cially Objectionable because Of the
grade on the approach to the bridge.
The new work replaces an old manual
plant, will require four less men for
its operation. and an unusual feature
to be included will be the operation Of
O switch at the entrance to the bridge,
which is located some 1900 feet from
the tower. For the lighting Of the
signals, lamps Of only one candle
power will be used, requiring but four
ffths Of an ampere for the plant, and
by using this size light one storage
battery of fifty FIVE cells can be made
to light the signals and to operate
switches and signals. Though but a
small plant, it will prove one Of con-
siderable economy and usefulness in
the handling Of trains at this point
