CH|RICAHUA CO.
 STOCKHOLDERS MEET TODAY
Matter of Acquiring Title To Property In Paradise Will Be Taken Up-McHeny May Be Superintendent,

It is probable that as a result of the meeting of the stockholders of the ChiTicehua Development company, which is to be held at Tucson this morning, operations will soon be re- commenced in the Paradise district on the claims which Burns and Duncan, the original owners, leased some time ago to the Chiricahua company.
 The bond which Bur-sS ana Duncan granted to the Chiricahua company expired on September Sth of last year. and at that time operations ceased. A meeting of the directors of the company was held on October 20, at which time Burns and Duncan agreed to give the title to the property to a new company, of which they would re- ceiYe a certain amount of stock, and the directors issued & circular letter to the stockholders in regard to the matter.
 The letter reviewed the transaction with the original owners, stating that the conditions for the transfer of the title to the property were:
 CD That 100000 shares of stock in a mining company to be organized should be issued to the stockholders of the Chiricahus Development company, in the proportion of two and one-hslf shares of the new stock for one of the old; tn enew company to take over all of the liabilities and assets of the development company.
 (2) That 50,000 shares of the new stock should be issued to Burns and Duncan in payment for the twenty-six claims forming the group.
 (3) That 100, 1000 shares of the new .companuy remain in the treasury of the company for the development of the property.
 (4) That all of the stock of the new company must remain in escrow, and in lieu of certificates of stock non negotiable receipts will be issued, un- til such time as the directors feel that it is to the advantage of the company to issue the certificates. The only exception to the last condition being 2,O0O shares of stock, which will be issued to the original owners at once.
 The matter will be taken up at a meeting this morning, and the matter of appointing superintendent will re- ceive definite action. It has been stated on reliable authority that Charles McHenry, formerly mine fore man of the Cananea Consolidated com pany's holdings, and later superfnten. dent of the Gold Treasure mine, will be placed in charge.
 The directors of the Chiricahua De. .yelopment company are: T. F. Cole, N. W. Haitre, N. Nj. Kaufman, s. R. Kaufman and W. G. Rice. Thomas F. Cole is in Bisbee at the present time, and was unable to leave for Tucson to attend the meeting, on account of mat ters which require his attention in the district Accompanied by his party, he will probably leave for Silver City, New Mexico, this evening, where they will inspect the workings of the Ty- rone proprty.

 MT. Bowser handed over the money without another word. He knew that Mrs. Bowser was standing at the head of the stairs and drinking in every word, and how he was going to square himself was puzzle. He stood in thought for couple of minutes and then ascended the stairs and went down the hall for his hat.

Dozen LAWYERS
OFFER ADVICE
SUPREME JUDGES MAY SIT IN TAX
APPEAL CASES EVEN IF SLIGHT
LY RELATED.

Upwards of a dozen attorneys were
present in Supreme Court this morn
ing, about half of whom took part in
argument on the point of law as re-
quested by the court some days ago as
to their eligibility to sit in tax appeal
cases in which members of the court
may be related within the third degree
of consanguinity with parties to a suit.
The construction of the Organic Act
was involved, and the attorneys were
unanimous in interpreting the act as
permitting the judges to sit under the
conditions stated. Among the attor-
neys who argued on the matter were
Attorney General Hemenway, Prosser,
Wilmington, Marks, Lewis, Smith and
Cooper. The court took the matter I'M
der advisement as to their own COM
petancy.
The cases in which the court had
particularly in mind in asking for
opinions of the attorneys, are the tax
appeal cases of the various big p1anta-
ton, in which of course a great many
persons throughout the territory are
stockholders and in a number of cases
these are known to be related to one
or another justice of the court

KIDNAPPED CHILD
KEPT FOR TEN DAYS
CHILD OF TENDER YEARS Is
STOLEN AND RETURNED AGAIN
TO THE PARENTS.

WAILUKU, Dec 1.-THE communi.
ty was startled Tuesday morning Of
this week to learn that kidnappers
were responsible for spiriting away
the little two-year-old daughted of An
tone F. Serene on December list and
keeping the child until a reward of
two hundred dollars was offered for
the return of the child
For some days after the child was
stolen many believed that the child
mad become lost and in all PROBABLE
ity persisted for want of food
1t is reported from Hama that the
parents were informed that the child
was not dead and it was suggested
that reward be offered This was
done and the same published i'm the
News and large posters printed here
and forwarded to Hama by the Clau-
dine Saturday
When these posters were put up the
father OF the little child was informed
that the child would be returned Tues
day This information was given by
the son of a well known kahuna of the
district and true to his statement the
child was returned On that day
The child was well and had evident
ly been taken good care of. 1t had
been kept about four and half miles
up the mountain in a deserted house.
That it was a deliberate case Of kid
mapping is not questioned as it would
be impossible for the child to live ten
days without food
The police are making every effort
to ferret out the mystery and have ar
rested two parties and are holding
them for investigation

LANDLORD
UNCLE SAM
FEDERAL PROPERTY AT WAIKIKI
IN BAD CONDITION AND HOUSES
WILL BE RENTED.

The condition of the several pieces Of
property purchased by the United
States Government at Waikiki for
fertilization purposes is giving Captain
Orwell United States Army Engineer
in charge some concern. 1t will likely
be several years before the property is
needed for the purposes for which it
was built and in the meantime unless
much needed repairs are made on some
of it. it bids fair to go to pieces. No
funds are available for making any OF
these repairs, and hence the quandary.
The sea is rapidly encroaching up
on the Along and Schaefer places, and
some of the buildings bid fair to be
undermined soon, unless a seawall can
be constructed to protect them. Be
sides repairs are needed on number
of the buildings especially of the OLD
Hebron estate. Captain Orwell is at
present trying 10 get tenants for the
several places, and devotse the rentals
on improvements, as the only hope OF
saving the government a large amount
of money
