"dnd if Gnd tbe Tayopa | will give you the rifle
 "Oh, but am not showing you the Tayopa" quickly replied the gentleman, in real alarm.
 The next morning the COW was released, and started in a hurry to go to her calf, with Mir. Sexton following her closely. After lead- ing him over several miles Of rough and precipitous country the COW fell over a precipice and broke her neck, dying in few minutes. MT. Sexton returned to the hacienda and reported the loss to the owner.
 "Ah!, DOT Dios," exclaimed the disconsolate gentleman, "One can not send even COW to show the the Tayopa without her losing her life"
 And that was as close as Mir. Sexton came to finding the lost Tayopa mine.

Even Cattle Not Immune.

MT. Thomas Sexton, who resides in the Yaqui delta, at Ontagota, relates an amusing story that goes to show how superstitious are some of the natives of the country. The circumstance related occurred some years ago, when Mir. Sexton was engaged in mining in the Sierra Madre. He was travelling through the mountains, and had occasion to stop several days at ranche owned by a wealthy native. In Mir. Sexton's outfit were number of fine rifles, with which the ranche owner was much taken, expressing himself as greatly desirous of own ing one. Incidentally the native gentleman imparted to Mir. Sexton the information that he knew the exact location of lost Tayopa mine, one famous in antigua days as very rich and productive. Upon receiv- ing that information Mir. Sexton said:
 If you will show me the Tayopa I will give you one of those rifles and one thousand rounds of ann munition."
 1T dare not do it" was the reply. "Should 1 do SO 1 would die"
 But finally the gentleman, so anxious was he to possess the rifle, ciphered out way in which he could have Mir. Sexton led to the mine and evade the penalty that tradition had taught would be visit ed upon all endeavoring to point out the long lost mine. Said he:
 Il have sent for my COW, and she will be brought in tonight; but her calf is tied out where she comes from. In the morning 1 will turn her out, and you follow her back to the calf"
 "All right" replied MT. Sexton

Business Extending.

Monday TIE OASIS man paid a visit to the Sonora Iron Foundry (Fundicion de Sonora at Hermo- sillo. and found it very busy place. Business is increasing very rapidly, and now there are forty mechanics constantly employed, where there were less than a score year ago, while there have been added re- gently number of new machines that add greatly to the efficiency of the plant and the extent and variety of the product. Much of the new machinery is in the wood working department, including reversible spindler and shaper, four sided shaper, a seven-inch shaper, etc. In the wood working line the shop is turning out now the largest sized refrigerators, suit able for hotels, restaurants and saloons, that are equal to the inn ported and much cheaper. School desks and park seats are special ty of the establishment, elegant de- signs of both being turned out, equal to those made in the United States; and orders for both articles are filled frequently from all parts of Sonora. An order for park seats at Cananea was filled last week, and school seats for the same place were ordered this week. In ma chinery the foundry turns out now a whim of the Davis pattern, an assay office ore grinding mill of the long familiar pattern, and a new horsepower irrigating pnmp, the latter from designs by Mir. J. H.. Aguilar, the engineer and manager of the Sonora Iron Foundry Next to. Mir. Aguilar in the conduct of the growing enterprise is Mir. G. NJ. Bliss, superintendent, who IS a very active and valuable man for the place.

London, Feb. Eff the movement
for the abolition of the house of the
lords, begun in earnest with the OPP
ening of parliament two weeks ago,
has frightened the members of that
august body and caused them to re-
solve to lead better and more useful
lives, the English public knows moth
ing of it. If appearances count for
anything, the lords are determined to
adhere to their ob%structionist tactics
to the bitter end, if nee be. Many
of them have openly expressed their
contempt for the blatant dema-
declared that they would neither ask
nor accept any compromises in the
coming fight. Apparently it is to be
var to the knife 4 the knife to the
hilt, with a combination between the
crown and the people to defeat the
mobiles. In case of a popular uprising
against the lords, there is little doubt
that King Edward will take his stand
with the people. Edward is decided
ly enamored of the king job and is not
likely to put the future of himself and
the royal family in jeopardy for the
sake of the gang of headstrong arts
tocrats who don't know on which
side their bread is buttered.
The house of lords as at present
composed consists of three princes of
the royal family, two archbishops and
twenty-four bishops or lords spiritual

If this is true the hereditary mobiles
it is dorrbly true of the archbishops
and bishops, the lords spiritual of
the house. Every reform measure has
met with their determined and at
times spiteful opposition. The bill
granting the people the right of suf-
frage was fought by the religious me-
mbers, who voted solidly against it.
At one time there were over 200 of
lenses punishable with death on the
statute books of England. Every bill
to abolish capital punishment for the
small offelses has been passed in
spite of the opposition of the lords
spiritual, not one of whom has eve
voted in favor of such a measure. 1t
is by such tactics as these that the
Bishops have involved the established
church in the fight on the house OF
lords, and it is more han likely that
it will fall with its creator.
