New Hospital at Cuadslsjars.

Guadalajara Times: Plans for the general hospital that the Southern Pacific will build in Guadalaiara are now being pre- pared in the engineering depart ment of the Cananea, Yaqui River x Pacific railroad in Tucson, AriZ It will take some time to complete them. It is understood that the hospital will have accommodations for at least fifty patients, and 1t will be arranged with a view to future additions. In addition to wards there will be a number of private rooms. The hosp tai will be of stone, brick and steel con struction. and 1t will be arranged in accordance with the most mod ern ideas of hospital building. The Southern Pacific people decided to establish the general hospital in this city because of the unequalled climatic conditions here. The sick and injured from all points on the Guavmas- Guadalajara nsion will be brought to the Guadala jara hospital for treatment.

HAS fAlTH IN PHOENIX.

A We'll Known Phoenieisn Visiting No- gslee Tells About the Capital City of Arizona, and the Causes of Her Pros perity
The oasis., 1907-04-27

Saturday and Sunday last No- gales was visited by Mr. A. Re- dewill, the pioneer piano dealer of Arizona, who stopped at the line city couple of days, en route into Sonora on business mission. Mir. Redewill is we'll known in the line city, having visiting here frequent lv, and has here a host of friends, who are delighted always to meet him. The gentleman has also wide acquaintance in Sonora, and does great deal of business in that state.
 While he knows the musical instrument business from a to izzard" it is as booster of Phoe- nix and the Salt River Valley that MT. Redewill shines pre-eminently. For every word he utters about pianos, or organs, or anything else in the musical line he emits a complete vocabulary descriptive of the beauties of Phoenix and the great valley of which that beauti- ful city is the crown and center.
 Phoenix" said the gentleman to a representative of TIE OASIS, lis forging ahead with rapid strides, and many influences are working to the development and enrichment of that city and its tributary region. Construction of the great water storage reservoir in the Tonto Basin region has given an assurance of an unfailing water supply for the entire valley; and thousands of acres of land considered unavailable heretofore will be under irrigation shortly. The sugar plant, which suspended last year on account of an in sufficient supply of water, has re- sumed operations, with an abund- ant supply assured by the new diversion dam now completed, giving a cash market for thousands of tons of beets each season, the product of hundreds of acres of land; and scores of farmers are preparing to avail themselves of the opportunity.
 "The prospect of two transcon- tinental railways, that will cross at Phoenix in the near future, gives confidence to investors; and much outside capital Is flowing into the city for permanent investment in real property and its improve ment in substantial elegant struct- ures.
 "The Territorial Fair last year was great success, and this year it will outrival far the grand success scored last Fali. The ter ritorial appropriation was increas- ed munifcently by the legislature recently adjourned. and in ad- dition to that the business men of Phoenix have contributed literally to provide funds for other prizes than those that would be possible ! out from the territorial appro- priation only. The speed program will be longer, the prizes larger, and the horses contending the fastest in the country; because the purses will be sufficiently fat to attract to the meeting the very best in horsehesh. There will be prizes for everything and all things produced in Arizona. including babies; and in every instance the

strswb berry industry. He stated that
he would soon place r. W. Allen, his

photographs will be taken which will

industry of the state.

strap which holds the shafts In place.

be discovered that something was rad
ically wrong with the shaft oonnec-
tion. He at once sought to extricate
himself from the wagon. In giving a
very hard lunge he pulled the driver
over the front of the wagon and he lit
on the back of the fIactious animal.
In the skirmish the front axle became
detached and away went the steed at
a two-foIty rate. The horse ran d.
rectly to the Snow & Upson shop,
but as be passed by Col. Hartley's
yard he ran between large oak tree
and fence and tore of a lot of pickets
and left the front running geer. No
one was seriously injured.

HINTS ON GIFT-GIvING.

A careful canvas of social gather ing, one evening this week, showed that nine-tenths of the persons present intend to make nothing but useful gifts for Christmas, this year. This is prob ably fair statement of the attitude of most people toward the gift question. The currency tie-up, now happily past, certainly made folks do some serious thinking concerning Christmas gifts. Thus the vogue of the really useful gift, which was born several years ago, promises to become almost uni versal this season. As the most useful gifts are those which people can make the most use of, articles of wearing ap- parel naturally take first place in the gift column, just as the wearing ap- parel sold by Meigs & Co. takes first place by reason of it's superior style and wearing qualities. Early buyers of goods have much the best of it, in se- lections and comfort, and Meigs 6 Co. urge their thousands of friends and customers to do their Christmas buying early. There will be plenty of people who will put it off, to crowd the stores the last few shopping days before Christmas. Buy early, and buy your useful gifts at Meigs & Co.'S.
