NOSaIeS OIL Field.

Yesterday afternoon large p,rty
of Nogaes people visited the oil fields
located northeast of the town. They
went out at the invitation of the So
noita Oil Co., and all efforts we're ex-
erted by members of the company
along Co make the trip one of pleasure
and interest.
Mr.. Robert Lewis, a California oil
the large oil fields on the American
continent and is perfectly familiar with
the die -ent geological formations
found wherever oil is encountered, was
along with the party. He was taken
out for the purpose of exporting the
field and giving an opinion.
The places where the first indie
ations we're discovered were visited,
and after exa aiming the shale, oil-rock
and sand stone, Mr. Lewis stated that
in his opinion there would be no trou-
BILE in encountering OIL Several places
along the road reminded him of parts
of California where the largest wells
have been tapped.
The party spent over an hour in the
vicinity of the oil basin. Capt. Hand,
the Nogales geo,ogist and mining man,
pioted the visitors over the country.
The gentleman is an interesting talker
and has thorough knowledge of oil
and the formations III which it is found.
The party returned to Nogales very
much pleased with the trip. After
seeing the indications and listening to
the opinions of Mr.. Lewis and Capt.
Hand it is easy to see why the members
of the oil company are confident of
tapping flow of oil. Their drilling
rig will soon leave Los geles.-No-
gales Times

The Passing of w. F. Marleau.

The passing of William F. Marleau,
which occurred at Los Angeles, Cali
fornIa, March 18th was learned with
regret by a wide circle of friends in
Nogales, where for many years he and
his family resided.
Deceased at the time of his death
was about 45 years of age. He ha d
for many months been suffering from
the effect OF paraletic stroke and had
gone to Los Angeles in hopes of regain
ing his lost health. Instead of getting
better he grew gradually worse and
Los Angeles physicians announced to
the family in Nogales that the end was
rapidly approaching. Mrs. Marleau
and Jesse, their oldest son, Immediate
ly departed for the bedside of the loved
one who had ever been kind and
affectionate. They were with him
when the end came. The funeral was
held in Los Angeles.
A sorrowing widow and five child
rem, three girls and two boys are left
to mourn the loss of one whose every
thought was for their welfare and hap
piness.
The town of Nogales has in the
passing of William +. Marleau, lost a
and highly respected citizen
who has in years gone by done much
to assist in the up-building and adj
of the town.
Mr.. Marleau for many years was
general manager of the Arizona Com
rnercial Company, now the Southwest
ern Commercial Company of this city,
a position he resigned on account of
failing health.
At the time of his death he was
trustee of the Nogales public schools.

JOHN DESSART.
The Ex-Bank Presidesldent Said to
Be Insane

| Wednesday afternoon John Dessert
ex-president of the defuact Interna-
tional Bank, was examined in the
probate court on charge of insanity
The complaint was made by w. X
| Sprecher, his brother in law.
The committing surgeons appoint
ed by Probate Judge OConnor were
DIR. A. L Gustetter and DIR. n. X
Noon; Drs. a. IL Noon, H. w Purify.
Ray Ferguson and A. q. Wright were
called as witnesses.
A NUN err of spectators were pres
ent when Sheriff Turner arrived at
the court room from the Dessart re-
sidence with the unfortunate ex bank
president. All of those present have
known Mr. Dessart for number OF
years, but he made no sign that he
knew they were Oh earth. With DO W.
ed head he sat nervously stroking his
hat and picking his hands. Occasion
ally he would run his long hair lhrou h
his fingers. He presented a pitiful
appearance of crushed and broken
manhood; no man present would have
changed positions with him for all the
gold in the would. Death before that
While the witnesses were being ex-
amined Mr.. Dessart remained in the
sheriff's Office.
The first witness was W. R Sprecher,
who told of Mr.. Dessart's chang ed con-
ditlon and insane acts since the Iuter-
national bank closed.
County Treasurer Marsh, DIR. Purdy
and Major Fred Herrera fer ten years
Mr.. Dessart's partner in the bank of
IL foe fis.d
as to the changed unnatural condition
of the ex-banker, who for many years
had the reputation of beinga careful
conservative business man of great
ability. Major Herrera said the con-
dition of the wrecke bank was such as
no bank president in his right mind
would have permitted to exist. He
also told of how MIR. Dessart had been
wounded in the head at the time in
1896, when Black Jack and his gang
held up the bank.
When the afflicted ex- banker was
brought into court to be examined by
the physicians he appeared dazed and
when asked by DR.. Wright, whom he
had known many years, John do you
know mef' he replied, Il know your
voice" Later he recognized the doctor.
When DIR. N. X. Noon questioned
MIR. Dessart and declared his friend
ship fer him, the banker broke down
and cried in pitiful manner. He
said he had no friends and was a terri
bly, abused man. Everybody, he said,
accused him Of robbery, when in truth.
everybody had robbed him. He ex-
pressed great bitterness toward Ger
tain individuals, whom he claimed were
responsible for his troubles and threat
ened to kill them il they went to his
home
The examination lasted more than
two hours, at the end of which the
ply asked the court to grant
them until Thursday afternoon to
make report. The request was grant
ed and Sheriff Turner took Mr. Dessert
to his home.
Thursday further continuance of
ten days was requested by the COM
hitting surgeons in order that a more
examination of MIR. Dessart's
condition might be made. The re-
quest was granted

Pullman Conductor Ing Drowned at
GuaymdS.

The Citizen office is in receipt of a
letter from DIR. III. A. Schell, which
details the finding of Pullman Con-
ductor Ing in the bay at Guaymas,
who had been missing two days. The
doctor writes:
81. Fl. lag residing at 237 South
Fifth avenue, Tucson, Pullman Con-
ductor on the 'Burro' train, arrived at
Guaymas, Sonora, Mex, on his regular
run on Thursday. March 10th, about
$50 a. IN. After chatting with a
few friends and remaining around the
lobby of the Hotel Armada until 11:3O
he went out. a friend met him and
spoke with him about 1890 He
then told this friend that he intended
having boat ride on the bay before
train time.
"Shortly afterwards Ing rented a
rowboat and started out alone About
. o'clock the boat was picked up emp
ty as it was drifting towards the shore
The owner of the boat failed to say
anything about the boat returning
without its occupant evidently think
ing it had been abandoned by the
renter to avoid payment for use.
MIR. Ing was not missed until about
train time when DIR. Schell, who had
been trying to see him before leaving
on the run back to Tucson, went to
his room aud found that his suit case
was still there. AS the depot is about
a mile from the hotel it was thought
possible that Mr.. Ing had been some
where near the depot and had not suf-
ficient time to return to the hotel for
his belongings. When, however, Con
ductor Barnum arrived next morning
and reported that nothing had been
seen or heard of Ing, investigation
was made, which resulted in finding
out about tue boat incident.

TIE CITIZENS TICKET.
Rousins Mass Meeting Held "Wednesday
Night In ArmOry Hall.

Wednesday night a rousing mass
meeting was held in the Athletic hall
and a ssCitizens' Ticket" was placed in
nomination to be voted for at the com
ing city election.
Col. Allen Il. Bird of the Oasis, and
Hon. Arthur L. Peck managed the
meeting in a most pleasing and salts
factory manner, and the only reason IA
resolution of thanks was not passed by
the enthusiastic assembly was because
the political machinery perfect
and ran so swiftly and smooth, it was
all over before anyone could think of
the resolution.
The meeting was called to order by
Col. Bird who at once got busy and
appointed a committee to "pass the
hat" for the price of the hall i'll the
sum of ten ducks He later said his
motive for haste i'll gathering funds
to pay for the hall, was selfish one
owing to the fact that he was personal.
ly responsible for the bill; concealed on
his person was a resolution, which when
read, might cause a stampede from the
hall. the result of which would be that
he would be left to ''hold the sack"
The resolution referred to was one
pledging every man nominated at the
meeting to take a ghty oath never
especially while in office-to vote to
repeal an ordinance now in force which
is opposed to the employment of women
in saloons. The resolution was passed
with a whoop, when put to motion.
and after Fred Bowman was elected
chairman and Professor Mcclure,
secretary of the meeting, nominations
for councilmen were in order, the fol
lowing gentlemen being unanimously
elected to take care of the Nogales
taxpayers interests: Capt. j.. w.
Mix, A. L. Peck, Ramon Vasquez.
John A. Sphinx, Schuyler Case, r. S.
Sturmer, John F. Bowman. The
H. w. Kelsey, were also placed in no
who, what they lacked in numbers,
made up in enthusiasm. Each of the
gentlemen declined the honor with
thanks. Mayor Kelsey most emphat-
ically declined stating he had helped
make the slate, and had at that time
refused to stand for ''any old thing"
He was in earnest; let some body else
have chance.
The next in order was the nomfn-
alton of city clerk. E. L. Griswold,
the present incumbent, who has made
an ideal clerk, was nominated. He
declined with thanks. Mr. L. Burgoon
was then mentioned and he won the
nomination in a walk, being the only
candidate.
Mr.. Jack Burns. one of Nogales'
old-time Republican war horses, was
the unanimous choice of the meeting
for town marshal and John X. Nolan, |
the present we'll known and competent /
street commissioner, was named for |
the same place on the "Citizens'
Ticket"
There being no further business the
adjourned.

VARIOUS VIEWS OF PROVIDENCE

The popular Russian view of the re- cent Japanese disasters is suggestive. We might say 1t was amusing, were it not for the danger of being thought to take light views of an entirely seri- ous matter; for no doubt the Russians are quite serious and sincere in think ing the Japanese vessels were destroyed by direct Divine interpretation and as "an offering to Russia upon the emper- ors birthday" Even though we may regard such belief as grossly super stitious, we must treat it with the re- spect that all honest religious faiths deserve. Yet we cannot help wonder ing how how those who think thus ex- plain the disasters which the Russians themselves were suffering only a little time ago.
 That sturdy patriot and interesting letter writer General Weedon, of Vir- ginia, when he was following Washing
