He was recaptured and returned to the prison.
 Arizona Republican,: F. s. Baldwin is engaged in loading an other car of oranges at the Santa Fe depot which will be shipped out this noon. Orange growers on the south side are complaining of the scarcity of orange boxes for ship ping purposes and considerable difficulty is experienced. Wm. Ellsworth and ". K. Brown have about two car loads of oranges ready for the market but they are seriously handicapped on account of not being able to secure boxes. The navels have all been shipped and only the Jaffa variety, which are considered by some as a better grade than the larger sizes, yet remain to be disposed of
 Arizona Republican: Mrs. So- lano NJ. Sosa, believed to be the oldest woman in the territory, died here. She lacked just d week of being III years old She was born at Cocopara, Sonora, on Christmas day, 1795. She came 10 Tucson sixty-nne years ago, and had lived in this vicinity ever since. At that time there was nothing of Tucson except an old church on the other side of the river sur- rounded by a few adobe houses. On account of the ravages of the Apaches even at that early date, the settlers were compelled to take refuge at San Xavier. She leaves daughter, Mrs. NJ.

 Tombstone Prospector: Harry Dearsley, one time amateur cham pion heavyweight boxer of Eng land, has turned archaeologist, and has recently made several import ant discoveries on his ranch about five miles west of Phoenix. In large mound covering nearly two acres, Dearsley has had dug sev- eral holes, from one of which has been taken large earthen jar, containing human bones. The grewsome find was made about five feet from the surface, along with considerable pottery, most of which crumbled and fell apart when exposed for a short time to the action of the air. So far Dears- ley has done but little work, only prospecting what appears to have been the burial ground for race of people that once lived and thrived in the Salt river valley, but has since disappeared.

PAYS to Watch Small Things.

No matter what the general magni.
tude of business may be, It Is well
worth the while to look out for its
minor affairs. This may be an age
of large things in general, but It is,
after all, from the handling of smaller
deals that the greatest profits are de-
rived. Small leakages are sure to slip
by unnoticed unless the business is so
organized that every detail, no matter
of how little apparent significance.
