July 2O.-Jim Smith. a young man who has been employed in the Capote mine for the past four years. was adjudged insane this week and sent to the asylum at Phoenix Last Saturday evening Smith applied to the keeper of the jail on the Mesa and asked to be locked up. assigning no reason for the unusual request The authcrities suspected that the mans mind was deranged. and after caring for him during the night called in physicians the next morning, and they discovered at once that he was suffering from dementia occasioned by over indulgence in alcoholic liq- uors. Smiths home is in Illinois. and his relatives have been advised I0f his condition.
 Notwithstanding the terrible defeat which the Cananea baseball club sui fered at the hands of the boys from the Shelter City last Sunday, they are as confident as ever.

Manager Harry Roland. of the Cananea Club. has re- ceiyed an invitation to play Fl Paso at an early date. No reply has yet been given, but it is probable that game will be arranged for.
