Don Ramon at Nogales.

Wednesday morning upon the return of Don Ramon Corral from Cananea, during the short time he remained at the line city before embarking for the south upon the special train which conveyed that gentleman and the distinguished party accompanying him to their home in the capital city of Sonora, he held an informal reception at the depot on the Sonora side of the line, where number of prominent citizens from both cities paid their respects. There were delegations from the town board and board of trade of Nogales, Arizona, and the board of supervisors of Santa Cruz county, and many prominent citi- zens. Judge Eb Williams was the head of the delegation from the board of trade, and he acted as spokesman of the party. In greet ing the distinguished citizen of the neighboring republic, Judge Williams, speaking in Spanish, spoke in substance as follows:
 Sir: In greeting you we come as committees from the governing body of our own municipality. and from he board of trade of our town, with the board of supervisors of our county. And in welcoming you we are impelled by no motives of ordinary etiquette, but by senti- ments of the sincerest regard, heartily and truly felt by people of one country toward one of the most beloved sons of neighboring country; and in greeting and part ing with you we wish to express our most sincere wishes for your own happiness and welfare, as well as for the welfare and happiness of the great republic of which you are one of the most distinguished representatives"

A Kidnapping Plot.

When THE OASIS was closed last week there came information from Douglas that the noted revolutionist, Sara bia, was arrested at that place, and with connivance of American officials taken from the jail and spirited across the line. Great in- dignation resulted, public meetings protesting against the outrage were held, the officers implicated were thrown in jail. Washington was communicated with, and it was made very plain that the Ameri- cans resented the indignity. It is stated that the Mexican govern ment ordered the man released to the American authorities. which was done at Nogales, Thursday evening, and Captain Wheeler re- turned him to the jail at Douglas, to await regular proceedings in Mexico if he is wanted. there for an extraditable offence.

 Wednesday morning NIT. and
 Mrs B. Schwob and their daughter, Miss Alicia Schwob, departed from Nogales for California, where they will make their home, going first to Ocean Park for few weeks, but making their permanent residence in Los Angeles. This pleasant family have lived in Nogales many years, and they leave behind them at the line city many warm friends who will miss them greatly. Tues day evenings a banquet was rendered Mr. Schwob at the International Club, in Nogales, Sonora, and the function was largely attended by the leading business men of the town. When they took the train to depart there were many ladies at the depot to bid them farewell.
 Some of our town boomers are so crazy upon the subject of the Cananea railway that they can let slip no opportunity to have some thing said about 1t, and they fre- quently make themselves ridicu- leus. It would not be SO bad did they not sometimes make others ridiculous and lacking in. sense, when they have done nothing to merit the imputation. An in- stance was presented in the ac- count given by the alleged daily newspaper of Judge Williams speech welcoming Don Ramon Cor ral. The Times asserted that the judge made allusion to the fact that Nogales is now definitely fixed as the western terminus of the road. Judge Williams states that he said nothing of the kind, and that he has more sense than to lug such a subject into his remarks upon such an occasion.

 And that very night Mir Martin the secretary, booked deck cabin on the Canewdon Castle which left for Cape town in fortnight. John Shil realiz- ed the value of the doctors advice. His health was breaking down under the strain. He required a change of air and the life on shipboard would be tolerable. It did not matter to him where the ship was bound for. If she were to drop anchor off the Needles he would derive just as much Denent from the voyage. There would at any and the cheerful hustle of life
 Nothing indeed could be more dreary than the lonely months at Black Hall The eternal darkness was beginning to prey upon his mind and he was faced with The aw lSIl prospect Of madness As Leonore had foretold, he was strong at first, but he had grown weaker day by day. The idea of suicide was becom- ing more and more definite in his mind. The immortality of the act was scarcely perceptible in his own case He was helpless and useless mere burden on society. Life has no place for -derelicts. They should be destroy ed and sunw deep in the sea of death.
 And ''tt destruction was so easy. More @.s. once he had fumbled his way g5a, iesk which held a loaded revolver end had taken the weapon In his hand. He had only to place the muzzle to his temple, pull the trigger. and loi there would be an end to all the darkness and all the pain. No ma gicians wand Was more wonderful than the slender tube of steel.
 Yet he had hesitated. He had not been afraid of death. but of what his death might mean to Laura Tanker lane Each time he had seen her face In the darkness and her eyes and lips had pleaded with him.
 
 Hardy left the room, here is the last chance. T will see if a change of life is likely to do me good. If it does not, I shall know what to expect. J sail go mad and kill myself.

 John Shil stood on deck with Mir ATa hr hi q the shore as if both sea and land were alike to him, and he felt the same emotion that comes to everyone on board an outward bound ship. In his minds eye he could sec the land fading into the distance and the broad stretch of water before him. He could hear the throb of the engines and re- alized that every stroke of the piston Nook him farther from home. He could
