A New Mining Camp Near Nosales.

Two months ago TIE OASIS made mention of the Maravilla mines, in the San Antonio Pass, about twenty miles southeast from No- gales, upon which development work had made fine showing of copper ores. Since then the prop. erty has been taken over by the ''Winona Mining Company" a strong corporation including a number of capitalists residing in Winona, Minnesota. Mir. A. w. Remnant, who is also general man. ager for the Sonora River Placer Mining Co.," operating in the vic unity of Bacoache, is general man. ager for the Winona Company, and commenced operations about II month ago.
 Upon his road home, Thursday, TIE OASIS editor stopped at the new camp, and found the superin- tendent, Mir. True, and his assist ant, Mir. Campbell, pushing work with all vigor. A new shaft is sinking, and is now down about fifty feet A hoist and gallows frame were in course of direction. AS soon as completed the shaft will be pushed downward, and a cross cut will be sunk to penetrate the ore body. developed by the former owners, by an incline ninety feet deep, about 300 feet distant.
 The new camp will become very lively place in the near future, and of great advantage to Nogales.

the issuance of writ of habeas
corpus in the district court at

''Buck" kearse, who was recently
by Justice OF the Peace
Clark to term OF sixty days in the
county jail on charge OF assault
and battery. Although kearse
pleaded guilty TO the charge. the
complaint alleges that the pro-
ceedings in the justice court were
irregular in the fact that no jury
was impanelled and no evidence
taken, after the defendant has
made his plea, as the statutes pro-
vide. The hearing, as to the facts
in the complaint, will
come up before Judge Dixon in

One of the most remarkable Is: Let

enormous interest would be aroused by

One variant of the mystical sayings

sayings formed new gospel which is
