NO COOLER MILL FOR
BROWNSVILLE.


To all appearances, Falturrias
has beaten Brownsville to the pea
nut mill, as planters in the Falfur-
rias vicinity have already pledged
themselves to plant $500 acres of
xoobers, while Brownsville has
fallen very far short of that
amount. In fact, THE HERALD is
inforuIed by the representative of
the peanut mill enterprise that not
a bushel of peanuts has been pledg-
cd to be delivered at Brownsville,
and this place has not the ghost of
a show of getting the mill. THE
HERALD has endeavored to obtain
a list of the names of those farmers
an Cameron county who have
pledged themselves to plant pea
nuts and the acreage pledged, IN
order that our people might see ex-
actIy how they stand in relation to
this enterprise, but the representa-
tive of the mill proposition has not
vet complied with the request OF
4he paper for the information II
would make interesting reading,
and perhaps might inspire others
to 90 into the industry if they
should see that a number of repre-
sentative men have sufficient con
6deuce in the enterprise to invest
IN it to the extent that was asked
of them. THE HERALD has pub
Eished so much relative to the pro
position, that it would like very
much to let its readers see just how
the matter stands at present.
Mill or no mill, however, thu
subject of peanuts has received
very extensive airing of late, no
only through the columns of TIL
HERALD, but through the paper
all over the state. II half of tn
0apers are correct about the mat
ter, there will be no end of peanut
grown and not a few peanut mill
will be built somewhere in Texa
1he coming year. Perhaps,
Brownsville had a business men
organization of some kind to loo
after her interests, she might no
have lost out on the goober propC
sitioa.

BISbEE HAS THE RICHEST BANKS
 IN ARIZONA
Territorial Auditor Page In Phoenix Pays Tribute to the Financial Rating of This Camps Institutions,


 Says the Phoenix Democrat: After several days spent in Cocbise and Yuma counties to visit the banks of those cities, Territorial Auditor Page has returned to Phoenix with the statement that the Miners & Mer chants bank in Bisbee leads all insti- tutions of that kind in Arizona. In both Cochise and Yuma counties Auditor Page found prosperity. In Bisbee the effects of the recent union agitation are wearing off. and in Yu- ma the people are busy cultivating farms and developing the mineral re- sources.
 Yuma people for the most part are reconciled to the removal Of the pris- on. though some believe that it will work to the business injury of that city. Plans are already under way in Yuma to erect a magnificent tourist hotel on the prison site when the pen itentiary is moved to Florence.
 About the Same time that Auditor Page was in Yuma George Truman, citizen member of the board of con troi, visited the territorial prison. He reports having found matters running smoothly under the management Of Superintendent Thomas Rynning.
 When seen and asked for a state ment in regard to the relative stand ing of the various financial institu- tions of the Territory, Auditor paee said: -.
 The last statement submitted to me by the Miners & Merchants bank of Bisbee, undoubtedly shows larger totals than those presented by any other bank in the history of the ter ritory, whether national or territorial. This lead was gained by the local bank owing to the enormous increase in the amount of its deposits. and speaks we'll for the progress of Bis bee and the Warren district
 The Bank of Bisbee also submitted statement of it's affairs which class es it as one of the leading banks of the territory, and which, when analyz- ed, speaks well for the policy of con servatism, as far as this quality is compatible with progressive Oauhins- Taking these two institutions as basis, Bisbee leads the entire ter ritory in the banking line and it should be a matter of pride among the citizens of that city. that their banks have advanced from the posi- tion of comparatively small institu- tions to the very first rank within the past couple of years.''
 When asked for an opinion in re- gard to the enactments of the recent 1 legislature, Page. who served one term in the lower house and another in the upper house before being ap- pointed. to his present position said : l "I do not think that anyone will deny that the 24th legislature pass
 ed many good laws and contributed
 its full share toward placing our ter
 ritory in the class of progressive com mOnwealths.
 "Of course there are many who Sd!
 that more good laws could have beer passed, but they never stop to think
 of the various obstacles which might
 arise when one endeayors to enact {
 bill into law within the comparativel!

ACCIDENT TO MOTHER AND
 CHILD NEAR YSLETA

YSLETA, Tex, April 3.-A very se- rious accident befell Epimenia Oene- las and one of her little girls as they were coming in to attend Easter services Sunday. The horse being driven became frightened and ran away, the mother and daughter being thrown from the vehicle and both badly injured. Mrs. Oenelas received large gash in the back of her head, and it is feared her skull is fractured, and she was badly cut and bruised otherwise. Her little daughter was also badly hurt and is in a very se- riCus condition.
 People living near the scene of the accident carried the woman and child
 into nearby house and doctor was called to attend them. Mrs Oenelas
 Is still unconscious and the outcome is uncertain. The wagon was demoi ished and, if the woman lives, this will add to her burdens. Many 6

 forth a coin to go as an easter offer

COCHISE HAS A GOOD SURPLUS
 IN CASH
Board of Supervisors Find Close to 3 Hundred Thou- sand in Hands of County Treasurer Gaines.

Yesterday morning the Board of Su. .pervisors closed it's meeting for the first quarter by making personal in spection of the funds in the hands of County Treasurer J. \. Gaines and found that the vaults in the county court house contained the round sum of s96, ,52S.13, this in gold. greenbacks and silver. How the extra three pen nies got into the vault with the rest of this mass of wealth is not explain ed, but Supervisor Bowen, who return ed to the city last evening, states that it is probable that possibly some enthusiastic supporter of three-cent fares has contributed three pennies toward his first mile ride, thinking that the three-cent rate bill has passed the territorial legislature.
 Most of the time of the supervisors was given over to auditing the bills of county officers and examining of bills against the county, and to hear ing the reports. of the various depart ments under their supervision.
 While this amount does not by any means represent the wealth of the county, a little comparison with that found in the largest county in the ter ritory may be of interest. In Phoenix a few days ago, when the supervisors of that county followed the usual GUS tom in vogue throughout the territory of examining the funds in the hands of the treasurer il was discovered that Maricopa's treasurer had in his DOS session an almost like amount, the funds in that vault showing the sum of S5T71S.01. -..

SAVED BOYS LIFE.

With his foot tightly wedged be- tween a rail of the Fl Paso & South western railroad tracks, and plank at one of the. crossings in the local yards, while a switch engine with a train of cars bore swiftly down upon him, the five year old son of Mrs. Anne Peabody, of Naco Road, in this city, narrowly escaped with his life, his final rescue from the very jaws of death being attributable to nothing else than the prompt and heroic action of his mother who pulled him from this dangerous position with main force. The lads ankle was sprained in the act but otherwise he escaped serious injury, if not certain death Mrs. Peabody and her two children a boy and girl, were walking along the tracks in the local yards when the train whistled Mrs. Peabody and the girl stepped off the track to 8 place of safety. but the boy following them became caught in the manner indicated above.

HELD HER HAND; NOW HE HOLDS
 HAPPINESS
Romance of Recent Bisbee Wedding Leaks Out When Young PaImiSt Takes Wife to a Northern Home.

With the departure from Bisbee oi Mir. Albert George Martin and his newly made bride. nee Miss Edith Gable, the young couple having been united in matrimony by Justice Ho- gan on Tuesday night, has leaked out the romantic side of the meeting of Not unlike other lovers of the same age, these last to be made happy people held hands, not in the good old way perhaps, but held hands just as effectively. At least this is the admission of the groom himself. Since the holding of hands and the study of them while they are in his possession in the business of MT. Martin who styles himself "Profes- sOr," il is not strange that sooner or later, he should have held the hand of one who was to share his path through life and cook his meals for him.
 Little more than a month ago, Mrs. Martin, then Miss Gable, seeing the advertisement of the professor, and DtllS hSlSued JUN IL "lLAi tIt NlltSEl- tainty of love, re paired to hIs oIiroe, there to have unfolded the mysteries of the future, which the lines in her palm told as an open book, could she but interpret them

 Did he see in the life of this fair creature before him his ideal woman or did the natural forces overcome him in spite of his occult powers and deep concentration in the subject, in mind?
 Well. at any rate. Miss Gable want ed to know something about he: ru. ture husband, and certainly if the professor could tell her not that which she so pined for, it was then plainly his bounden duty to offer him self as a solution of the problem. He offered.

 Judging from these premises it seems that unless petition signed by his friends, and they are numerous. is presented to the councilman from the Third ward. Tracey's place will soon be occupied by comparative stranger who could just as well act as the pow CT generator for an eight-pound ham -ner and drill.
 IL may be true that Tracey was a little bit forward in asking for an in crease in his wages considering his job. but he did it in a respectful way thinking, no doubt, that he might be able to get a little more wherewith to enjoy life, before he attends the last funeral in which he will ever partici pate.

There is no doubt but that when the employees of the. city got up their petition to the city, council for raise in wages they little thought of the dire consequences which might follow this display of monstrous ingTatitude to- wards those who had handed them small chips from the municipal po- litical pie It seems that the. next petition which the employees, or at least some of them, will. have to pre- sent to the council is one praying that they may hold their jobs.
 When the petition. was read to the council on Tuesday night Councilman Uncle BiI1S Morris ran bis eye over the names of the signers and spied that of Tracey, man in whose behalf he had exerted every ounce of in fiuence he had to secure him the ap- pointment to take care of the city barn. Evidently the Solon from the Third ward could not believe his eyes, because he turned to one of his col. leagues and asked him if that name, pointing to the one one in question, were Tracey" His colleague as sured him that il was, and with that Uncle William" almost exploded
 He chewed his cigar, attempted to speak and his voice failed him, and finally he brought his fist down on the mahogany table with a crash, and an exclamation which sounded like Well, I'll be d-"
