 MANS TRIAL AT NAco.
(Special to Review.)

Especial 10 Review.)
 Nacc. March 2.-One of the most important cases to occupy the atten- tion of the local justice court occurred today when John Blevin was tried be fore Justice of the Peace Greaves and a jury. Mir Blevin was charged with stealing goods and merchandise from the El Paso G Southwestern railroad on the Naco section sometime in De- cember.
 Attorney Fred Sutter and J. w. Ba- ker of Bisbee together with the attor- ney for the Fl Pasc & Southwestern railroad company acted on behalf of ;he territory.
 After examining one dozen witnesses for the prosecution and the defense the case was dismissed at the insti- gation of the district attorney. The fact was brought out that there has been considerable goods stolen of late. This case was used as an example, but evidence to convict was insufficient
 There was also another charge against Mir. Blevin which was dis missed for want cf evidence.
 The defendant came up to Naco with his wife and child. Mrs. Blevin being present in the crowded court room during the trial

Banks of Massach usetts Hold Funds
 For This Purpose.
 Tt is perhaps not generally known that savings banks in Massachusetts, under the provisions of the acts of 1875 and 1895. are especially authorized to receive on deposit. to any amount. funds in trust for the purpose of set ting out shade trees in streets and parks and fer improving the same. and also for erecting and maintaining drinking fount;:Sls in public places 9 said NJ. F. Dickinson in an address at a meeting of the Massachusetts state board of agriculture.
 ''These funds are placed on interest in the banks. the dividends being pay able semiannually to the town desig- mated by the donor. and are to be ex- pended by the authorities of the town for the purposes specified. No part of the principal can be withdrawn. and the same is exempt from attachment or levy on execution.
 'I am not informed to what extent funds have been deposited in our sav- fngs banks for these purposes, but the legislation certainly is a step in the right direction. Let US hope that out of it may finally grow the habit on the part of our rich men of providing a permanent fund for the establishment aud beautifying of cur public places"
