Mayor Thompson had a full force
out working the 'new town streets
Iast week, and the work is a credit to
him. But say, friend, you slighted
the old part Of the town. We ought
to remember some of our best fami-
lies still reside down there. They
have not said one word about it,,
and this is only a reminder, edo UNI

Mr.. Lawrence Mccain and sister,
Carrie, of WINFIELD, visited their
parents last Sunday.

the ensuing year, and Bro. Elliott
goes to Pollock. We regret very
much losing Bro. Elliott and his es-

Leon to his old home, and trust that
this year will be one OF his best, and
that he will be successful in winning
souls for Christ.

it was her daughter who had come in

not receiving reply, it fully aroused
her, when she saw negro man just
in the act of going into the room, oc-
cupied by her daughter. The light
was burning brightly. and she could
see the man distinctly. but did not
recognize the negro. She called to
her daughter to bring the gun. when

Grape-Nuts Accomplished What Ocean

It's not what you eat but what you digest that gives strength.
 Many man drags around year after year half dead, because his food is not digested and he takes first one kind of medicine and then another without re- lief-because medicines cannot take the place of we'll digested food and never will
 Give nature a fair chance, as a prom inent German American of Chicago did, and if you're in bad fix from stomach trouble, read what he says andtry it on.
 About year ago." he writes, T was afflicted with stomach trouble which so enfeebled me had to quit work I grew so lean was merely skin and bones.
 q had the advice of six different doe tors and two college professors. One thought had cancer of the stomach. another advised a change of climate, and recommended ocean travel de- cided to follow this last and went abroad for three months.
 But my health became worse and  worse. The least amount of food caus- ed me awful pain, and obtained relief only by having my stomach pumped out.
 Nothing did me any good, Soon I could take no food at all except strain ed oat meal then time came when I could not even take that. I lost cour- age and prepared myself to die. At that tirne my wife brought me package of Grape-Nuts, but I had no confidence in anything any longer.
 "She finally persuaded me to taste a few spoonfuls of the new food and to my surprise I retained it and had no distress That made me feel fine and encouraged to make another trial for life. For several months I ate nothing discovery day bowl of Grape-Nuts with cream. and thus I regained my health, my old-time weight and am now as well as ever. I could not live with out Grape-Nuts."

DELEGATES TO CONVENTION
FIVE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY
 ENTERTAINMENTS

Of Towns and Districts Will Attend
 What Lake's Friends say--Tt i'
 Claimed That the Senator From the
 First District Will Have Over Four
 Hundred Votes on the First Ballot.
 Claim Disputed by Weeks.
 Tn all the towns in the state the re- publicans have elected delegates to the state convention, The number of del- egates from the towns and senatorial districts in the convention will be five hundred and eighty. It is claimed in behalf of Senator E. J. Lake, one of the candidates for the nomination tof eutenant-governor, that he will re- ceive on the first ballot at least four hundred fotes. This claim Is disputed by the friends of Frank B. Weeks, of Middletown, Senator Lakes rival for the nomination, who say that MT. Weeks has developed more strength throughout the state than Senator Lake or his friends are aware of. Tax Commissioner Frank E. Healy, who is in charge of the canvass of Senator Lake, and other gentlemen who are as- sociated with him, have not the slight est doubt that MT. Lake will be nomi- mated on the first ballot, and say that it is only question of the size of his majority.

TAXPAYERS ARE
 FOR SEWER
Eleven Registered Voters Were SgeR Yesterday by The Review and all Ia
 VOf the Bond Election.

There are 296 registered voters for
 the sewer bond elecs5on to be held
 February 5. Of this numbT about Do
 have been seen so far by represent
 ative of the Review. Out of this fifty, three have stated they were op- posed to the sewer bonds, and two de-
 ciined to tell their attitude on the
 proposition. All the others are em-
 phatically in favor of the sewer bond proposition. The canvass yesterday was made chiefly among the profes- sional and business men, and not one was found who was opposed to the sewer bonds. Easing the votes for and against the sewer bonds upon the ratio of the canvass so far made. the vote February should be 266 for the bonds and 30 against. The number of people who would have been qualified to vote on the bonds had they not neglected 10 register, is large Some failed to register on account of be- ing away on business or q pleasure trip, and others purely through negli- gence.
 From this list Of interviews many good reasons for voting the bonds are given, and no arguments against them are made. The general opinion is that Bisbee needs the sewer system and is able to have it, that II does not tax anyone who is unable to pay their share of the sewer bond tax; and a lack of municipal Improvements Is keeping the city from growing moreI rapidly than aJ present,
 The following is list of interviews secured yesterday:
 J. E. Thompson: Il favor the sewer bonds because this improvement is necessary for the health of the city. IL would make Bisbee al better place to live, and people who now leave for California and other points during the summer would stay here the year round. It would also bring many people to Bisbcr to live who own property here and are .n- terested in the mining industry. T. would increase the value of the prop erty to many times the cost of the bonds. ] have juse returned from a trip through many cities Of much less business activity than this, which has sewer system and up-to-date n every way, and know Bisbee is much more able to have this than these cit les. 1 can see no reasonable aTgu- ment against the bonds.

ROULETTE GAME OPENS
Gamblers Strike at Douglas I Has at Last Been BrOkenIE

Douglas, Ariz., Jan. 27.-(Special.J-
 Although a roulette game was yes terday started in the Sample Room saloon on Avenue c. near the Orph- cum theater, by Joe Gribble and Chas- Wallace, there seems no rush at the former gamh.ing resort saloons in Douglas to "open up." In fact, the gamblers seem uncommonly languid about getting busy. Some say they don't want to open up as they have never made any money at it.
 One saloon mas, ], F, Rails, of the White House, Said he might open be. fore pay day, but wasn't sure about il. He expressed himself as plumb will. ing for the authorities to stop the gambling altogether, and said he wished to see it run cut of the ter ritory. Mir. Rails said he saw little chance of change in the policy of lhe city government after the city election, as the sentiment of the peo- pie was overwhelmingly opposed to reduction of the license. He said. in reply to inquiry, that he was sure there was no movement among the saloon and gambling men to infiu- ence the result Of the coming city eIectlon.
 The Brunswick people are not mak- ing any talk about opening up, but do not say they will not open. In fact, the games, it seems, will open gradually but without a race.

TOOK A GUARD
 ON JOURNEY Q
Judge CaSs of Douglas Re- turns from Exciting Trip to the Sonora COuEtry--- The MOntO VistO Mine.

Judge Cass is home again after sev- eral days in Sonora on business. He was as far south as Moctezuma and
 rode from Nacozari to Moctezuma with body guard of one lone Mex ican. whose only firearm was a cigarette. The judge was not armed at all. and depended altogether for protection on the body guard. who was also guide, philosopher and friend. The judge says his confidence grew as he rode along, and before he hunting for Yaquis but couldn't even get a report of any. They are get ting to be scarce down there now. But on his return to Cumpas he saw a real Yaqui scare.
 A Mexican was driving a mule team pas and had a led horse to the rear of his wagon. As he approached a hill he heard firing and the spit-spat of the bullets as they fell about him He abandoned his team and mounted his saddle horse and rode for dear life to Cumpas, where he gave the alarm. The brave citizens of Cum pas were not content to defend the town alone They selected a stout hearted band from the veterans of former Apache wars and raids, and went out after the Yaquis. When they reached the mountain where the "a quis had fired upon the teamster, they formed a cordon about it and approached, taking advantage of all the cover the nature of the ground would permit. Presently two shots rang out from over the sky line, and two Mexican boys, q cotton-tail rab- bit and dog charged into the ranks of the advancing veterans. But the men held their ground, and after a to the teamster, the troops returned to Cumpas. The boys said they didn't know he was passing and fired his way without knowing he was there.
 Judge Cass says this is typical Yaqui story.
 The judge says the Monte Visto mine Is showing up better as the drifting on the nine-foot vein contin- ues The ore is getting better stead fly. When the tunnel being driven toward the fourteen-foot ledge reach es it's destination they will drift on

DIED AT THE AGE OF ,os.
Mrs. Juana Romero Passes Away al
 Pirtievilie, Home of Daughter.

Douglas. Ariz-. Jan 27.-(Special)- )--
 Mrs. Juana Romero, grandmother of Pete Martinez, the well known Douglas ball player, died yesterday in Pirtleyille at the home of her daughter. Mrs. Martinez.
 Mrs. Romero came here from So. nora. Mexico, only few weeks ago. She has been suffering lately with Ia grippe, which she was unable to throw of on account of her great age. she being 105 years old.
 She was probably the oldest person in this part of the country.

that ledge also. By drifting com paratively short distance on the big vein they will attain depth of 500 feet. The three big veins have a dip toward each other, which the en- gineers think will make them one big vein at reasonable depth. But the valuable mass of ore already un- covered in the great Monte Visto mine makes it one of the finest prop critics in Sonora.

A Good Time Ahead.

This is the beginning of the best
season ever experienced in the poul-
try business in the South. More peo-
pie have thoroughbred stock and eggs
flor sale this year than last. yet the
supply will not begin to fill the de-
mand. Prices of good fowls win not
Ibe lowered, but on the other hand, in
some instances, fabulous prices will
be asked and received for single birds.
Our Southern poultry raisers are
studying and working as they never
have before, and they are advertising
the sale of their years hatch. You
will find that our Southern breeders
have as fine stock at as reasonable
prices as anywhere. There is an adj
vantage in buying near home-the ex-
press charges and the necessary delay
and frequent damage en- route. The
columns of the press are open to the
lpoultrymen and we want them to give
Ius their experience in raising young
chicks this summer and tell us OF their
preparation for the coming shows
