Witt's Vivid Account.

''The Douglas Inte-national-Am ican says: Officer Witt, of Fl Paso who carried Lewis to Nogales and turned him over to the sheriff of that county has described the reception given to Lewis on their arrival at Nogales
 "Mr. Witt gives a vivid account of the reception that was rendered the prisoner there. He says that when the people learned that Lewis was coming almost the entire population of the town turned out to greet him and jeer at him as he was being rush ed from the depost to the place of incarceration. So great was the peo ple's jollification at getting the man back, whom they think is principally responsible for the failure of the bank, that they organized a torch light procession and paraded the streets headed by brass band"
 Many people in Nogales met Office Witt when he was here. He ap- peared to be decent, sensible sort of a follow, and it will be hard for those who met and conversed with him to believe him guilty of the above tom myrot.
 While here the fun-loving spirits of the border city did their best to show Mir. Witt pleasant time and over looked no opportunity to "mix em" with him. Perhaps that's why.
 The citizens of Nogales are a God fearing, law biding people, and while 1t IS true, many were glad General Lewis was returning, he was not 'Jeered," neither was there "torch light procession headed by a brass band" At no time was Lewis in danger of bodily harm.
 Mr. "Wltty" Witt we wouldn't have believed 1t of you.

Don't Be a knOcker.

If there's a chance to boom business boom 1t. Don't be knecker. Don't pull long face and look as if you had a sour stomach. Hold up your head, smile and hope for better things. Hide your hammer and try to speak well of others, no matter how small you may really know yourself to be.
 When a stranger drops in, jolly him. Tell him this is the greatest town on earth-and 1t is. Don't discourage him by speaking ill of your neighbors or opposition firms. Lead him to be- lieve that he has at last struck the place where white people live. Dom t knock.
 Help yourself along by becoming popular, and push your friends with you. It's dead easy.
 Be good fellow and soon you will have a procession of followers. No man eyer helps himself by knocking other people down i'll character or busi- ness No man ever got rich by trying to make believe he was the only good man in town who knows anything.
 You can't climb the ladder of success by treating on other peoples corns. You're not the only pebble on the beach. There are others, and they have brains as well as you. There IS no end of fun in minding your own business. It makes other people like you. Nobody gets stuck on knocker. Don't be one-or two.-Ex. si

AT IT AGAIN.
The NosaIes Knocker Gets in Ills Deadly Work and the Town and Country
 Is the Loser.

If eyer there was community cursed and handicapped by the 'knocker," that place Is Nogales, which for mary years has been the gateway to Sonora, one of the best minin g countries on the face of the earth.
 The time is not far distant when a stop will be put to the knocking" business, which seems to be the stock in-trade of certain individuals, who infest Nogales, and lay in wait for strangers who come here with money to invest in mining prospects or ra1nes- If these individuals see a chance to get their own ''strick in,' good and well; but woe be it unto the other fellow, if Mir. Knocker, is not first consulted and offered ''slice. "
 THE BORDER VIDETTE has from time to time been requested to show up to the world, these "knockers, who while their presence and methods are well known, their identity could never be fully proven. Their deadly work continues but so well do they cover the tracts made by their cloven hoofs, that proofs of their terrible guilt are lacking. It will not always be so, however, and then there will be something doing, in the way of rail, some tar and feathers, many indign- ant citizens, and "Mr. Knocker," all moving in one direction,-the out skirts of the town.
 TIE BORDER VIDETTE this week was told story of ''Nogales knock ing" the equal of which can not be found in ancient or modern "knock- ing' history. About six months ago one of our best known mining men, opened correspondence with parties in the east, with the view Of disposlng of certain properties situated in So- nora After many months he was successful in his efforts to interest a gentleman in St. Louis, by the name of Cameron, and on February 9th, the mining man received the following telegram, which is self-explanatory and proves beyond doubt that Mir. Cameron of St. Louis, not only meant business but put up the money to "come, exmine mines, buy and work, if approved:'

Saw Discovery Sink

Though nearly year has elapsed, the exact time, place and manner of the loss of the ill-fated Alaska steamer Discovery is just now known. The in teresting information comes from Chief John of the Lituya bay tribe of Indians. Chief John was perhaps the last person living to see the Discovery ahoat. On the afternoon of November 2, off Litu- va hay, he saw the Discovery go down. Lituya bay is u!nety-three miles south of Yakutat, the last port made by the Discovery. Chief Johns statement supports the contention of the press that the Discovery was lost after leaving Yakutat, November 1. His testimony also disproves the sensational stories re- gently published to the effect that the hull of the Discovery had been found on Middleton Island, far out to the north and westward of Yakutat.
