Train Service on
 NogaIes Branch

Notice has just been given of a night passenger train that has been paced on the Sonora branch of the Randolph lines and as a result of the extra service half day in time is saved on journey between Tucson and Guaymas
 The double train service on the So- nora road was put on to accommo- date the rapidly increasing traffic which has gone ahead wonderfully with the extension of the new lines through Sonora and Sinaloa.
 The Guaymas sleeper under the new schedule leaves Tucson on the International train at 3:l0o clock and arrives in Guaymas on the following morning. The night train on the Mexican road makes direct connec- tions with the Nogsles train at No- gales, and as a result the alI-night lsyover in the Line City is done away with.
 On the return journey the train leaves Guaymas at 6 B D. m. and ar rives in Nogales at a. m. and in Tucson at p. m.

Arizona May
 Lead in Copper

That Arizona will probably head all oi the copper states and territories in this country during the present year in production Is the statement given out by the Boston News Bureau.
 with but two more months in the present year, Arizona is giving Mon tana' the leading copper producing state, hard run, and the heavy fall- ing off in the Montana production, to- gether with the comparatively small decline in Arizona production as com. pared with the other states, has brought this territory on almost even terms with Montana.
 Although there has been decided reduction in all of the copper districts, the falling off now from normal in Ariz1na IS only about 5,OOo, 900 pounds per month.
 The reports for the ten months of the year that have already passed show that there has been a falling of of 93,OOO.OOO pounds, as compared with the production of last year. In the decrease Montana has been the heaviest sufferer. At Butte, the chief copper center of the state, the pro- duction was S3,OOO,OO pounds less than in the previous year, showing a decline of 27 per cent.
 During the month of Oct lber the copper decrease in this country, Mex. ico and Canada was 3I ,O36 ,O40 pounds, which is a decline of 30 per cent as compared with the same month last year.

Phelps Dodge Co.
 Granted Immunity

A Washington dispatch regarding the land frauds in New Mexico says no prosecutions will be had of the
 Phelps Dodge interests, who were in dicted recently on alleged irregularities and lands frauds The dispatch says: "The president has been seen rela-
 tive to this matter, also the secretary of the inte rior, Mir. Garfield, and it is said they are convinced that no actual fraud has been committed and that there was no intent to commit fraud. It is said that the Phelps Dodge of- ticisls admit that they furnished the money for most of the entries on the land ip question, but they first con- suited an attorney, Mir. Spies, who is indicted with them, and that he ad- vised them tba. it was legal and the regular way to do it. The govern msnt, it is said, would not be able to prove a conspiracy and will drop the matter and remove McHarg, the spe. cisl assistant attorney general who brought the indictments without & proper insight into matters.
 "It is also said that the lands may be restored to the territory or ap- praised and resold to the present holding corporations. but it is certain
 hat the indictments will, not be brought to trial by the government, the president, attorney general and secretary of the interior being sstis- fled there was no intent to defraud the territory out of the land"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by focal applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an infiamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eu.tachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de ,troyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is noth ing but an infiamed condition of tn, mucuous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollar for any case of Deafness (csused b! catarrh) that cannot be cured b, | Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars free.
