by Mr.. Durnal is but a short dis
lance from where Alvord and Stiles
robbed Mr.. Tener of the output of
his mines several months ago.
For the past two week Col. Kos
terliski, who is in charge of all the
rurales in Mexico, with head
quarters at Magdalena, has kept a
large force of his men out in the
hills. 1t is presumed that this
fact alone tended to Illustrate the
plans of Stiles and his party to
again make a raid upon one or the
other different treasure trains
coming from the rich gold mines
into Magdalena.
1t is thought that by this time
information has reached Roster
lisky Of the close proximity of
Stiles and the Rurales are close
upon his track. If captured in
Mexico Stiles will receive but
short shift. 1t was for this reason
that it was thought that he would
not again venture so near the scene
of his last holdup but would keep
close the border.

Outlaw Stiles Near MagdaIena.

Columbus Durnal, who is well
known in Nogales having lived
here some time ago, has returned
to Douglas this week from an ex-
tended prospecting trip in the
Magdalena district of Sonora. He
rode across the country from the
town of Magdalena to Douglas and
reported that on his journey he
met Billy Stiles, the much wanted
outlaw, whom he has known for the
past ten years. Although he did
not speak to Stiles Durnal is
certain that he passed him while
travelling between Magdalena and
the CerroPrieto mines, located a
few miles from that town. There
were five men in the party,s includ-
ing two Americans besides Stiles,
and two Mexicans. Further along
he met several prospecting parties
who told him that Stiles was in
that vicinity.
1t is the opinion Of all who have
seen Stiles and the party of which
he is apparently the head that
another attempt had been planned
to rob the bullion train coming in
from the Klondyke mines. The
point at which the men were seen

TACOMA, Wash, Dec. 20.-Stanley
Cearce has left Dawson for Canada to

next summer In accomplishing this
Cearce announces his intention OF
showing Canadians how eggs should
be packed.
For this purpose he will buy 5000
empty egg cases in Chicago and ship
them to Toronto. where he will pro-
vide a cold storage plant for the pack
ing and storing of the eggs prior to
shipment to the Klondike. He will
buy his eggs on the Canadian side to
escape payment of duty. Besides this
financial advantage Cearce has found
that Canadians sell eggs which are
second to none in the world, but they
are greatly behind in the art of egg
packing. This deficiency, Cearce says.
is due TO the difficulty which the Can
adian packers have in getting abso-
lutely dry lumber for egg boxes.
Lumber which is even slightly damp
will convey a foreign flavor to eggs.

SAN RAFAEL, Dec 20.-Cigarettes
and openwork socks were two of the
items that caused a disagreement be-
tween Rev. Robert f. Lee Craig Of
Grace Church and his flock. The ultra
modern pastor was last seen yesterday
bound for the San Rafael depot in an
express wagon. Ali his household
goods were with him. II is given out
by the vestrymen that Craig has re-
signed voluntarily and gone to accept

Craig came TO the peaceful town Of
san Rafael in May last. on first sight

that his raiment was too loud for the
place and for his calling His low-cut,

used by Kentucky colonels. On one oc-
casion il is reported that the reverend
gentleman's language was so strong
that il sent one Of the prominent young
ladies Of the congregation into hyster-
les. A bevy Of girls were engaged in
decorating the church when the strenu-
Gus pastor appeared, and they claim he
broke into a storm of profanity so
strong that one of their number was
overcome by the shock.
The vestrymen, while they do not
deny these stories outright, maintain
that differences with the congregation
did not cause Rev. r E. L. Craig to
depart for the sunny South, where
openwork socks cause no shocks and
where the ousting Of a negro is consist

he resigned OF his own accord. Rev

other pastor can be found
Following are statements from some
Of the vestrymen:
