A more congenial lot of men never
sailed forth for a junket of this sort.
Not a ~disagreeable episode of any sort
wrinkled the pleasure of the tourists.

business men doomed up wherever we
went. Big, jolly gentlemen, open

weather clerk was most amiable. Not
a single uncomfortable day did we
have. Late afternoons and evenings
an overcoat was comfortable at Gold
field.
One of the felicitous hits was the
securing of Frank G. 1yrrell as the
spokesman for the company. Gold and
silver and precious stores drop from
Mr.. Tyrrell's lips like ~dewdrops from
the morning rose. He swayed his au-
ditors from tears to laughter, and
from reflection to uproar. At every
oasis in the desert they wanted more
of Tyrrell, who always said just the
right thing.
One of the most amusing episodes
of the journey was a mock trial In
the drawing-room car Wednesday

Three hundred tons of ore from the

to these 100 noisy stamps, after hav-
ing been treated to a cyanide bath,
and come out in the form of gold and
silver bricks from the kissing melt

ton of the processes that so interest

And what did the Angelenos say
as they rambled homeward over the
sands?
That the mining industry of these
new camps which have grown up in
the past half dozen years is as stable
as the fruit growing of California or
the agriculture of Kansas,
That every mountain in Nevada
has a promise in it.
That there is-there really is-a
pot of gold at the other end of the
rainbow, if Patience and not Guile is
in pursuit.
That the mining business in Neva-
da not only requires enormous CAPT
tai, but it rewards enormous capital
intelligently applied.
That the mining business as con
Quoted on paper in a hot-air foundry
in Los Angeles is altogether differenr
from the mining business as carried
on by the giant workers of our neigh
bor state.
That the demand for more capita
for development which ONE so loud
ly out of Nevada, is a legitimate de
mand by men who r carrying for
ward operations as substantial as ar,
those of the wheat growers and or
ange planters.
That the patience, skill and cout

Is most admirable.
That Los Angeles should lend

and sincere workers, who are dol,

There were few mining experts in
this group of fifty-six representative
business men. They all went down
into the mines and explored miles of
tunnels at levels varying from 500 to
100 feet below the surface. At Gold
field they tramped amid the vaulted
| ~gloryholes of the world-famous Mo-
hawk, which is said to have produced
SIS 900 900 in 100 days. At Tonopah
they walked for miles and miles
among the tremendous diggings of
the Belmont, which is now paying 10
cent quarterly dividends. Few of our
party knew ore from waste; but they
saw the operations conducted upon
such a magnificent scale; they saw
the cars loaded with rich quartz and
tale; they saw the huge machines;
they saw the glistening gold coming
out in bars and in cleaning sands;
they saw new hoists springing up BY
scores and new mills planted every.
where; they saw properties developed
with the gold taken out of them.

This monster mechanical organism,

But the story it told, after all, was
the story of creation.
God made the earth, and He saw
that 1t was good. He saw that all of
it was good. The desert is not a

 The selling of the cigar factory en- abled Mir. Fleischer tO give his en- tire time to the clothing business and the rapid growth of the Boston Store was the result. A good trade was worked up in Sonora, and to better fill Sonora orders, branch stores were later established at Guavmas and Cananee. While the branch stores were new the proprietor had all the work his busy brain could attend to, but as time and system brought the busi- ness of the Boston Stores to con dition of steady trade, that required less of his personal attention, he began to plan other enterprises. About eighteen months ago he es- tabiished wholesale clothing house in Nogales, Sonora, and very soon thereafter he began to plan a factory that would supply stock for his wholesale establishment, and for the retail stores in Guaymas and Cananea, Sonora. The factory was finally established on a small scale a year ago, but orders from the south were soon pillng up al such rate that the few solicitors in the field had to be called in

Bandits Fight Among Themselves.

TIE OASIS is in receipt of a let ter from Mir. Jacob Beaverich, of Sahuaripa, conveying an account of the killing of notorious outlaw named Teodore Lopez, and two of his band, by other members of the gang, in a fight over the distribu- ton of money, which had been se- cured in a hold up they had per petrated.
 According to the account given by Mir. Beaverich, the band was camped for a night at the Bavesa ranch, near Lampazos, and while seated around the fire the question arose of division of $200 secured from a traveller last week. The men who accomplished the robbery claimed the larger portion of the spoil, while Lopez, as q need for his leadership, demanded the lar ger share, without having partici- pated in the deed. Words were passed when suddenly the bandit chief drew his gun, killing one of the Zapata brothers seated oppo- site him. The remaining brother took hand in the affair, and shot Lopez through the head, killing him instantly, after which he him self was mortally wounded by a member of the gang who had sided with the chief in the dispute.
 A report of the killing was car ried to Lampazos by ranch hand who witnessed the fight, and who stated that among the remaining members of the gang hard feelings exist, which will probably lead to still further killing.
 Lopez came from prominent and we'll known family in Sonora, being brother of Don Miguel A. Lopez, owner of the Lampazos mines, but had gone wrong, and by his very force of character and ability, had made himself the heao of dangerous band, whose depre dations have spread terror far ant wide. Many of the depreciation committed in that part of the country that have been credited t( Yaquis, are supposed to have beer perpetrated by the Lopez band o bandits. It is hoped the traged,

CLOTHING FACTORY
 IS FULL GROWN
sormer Llttle Establishment Gives Way 10 One that Will Employ 200 People and Distribute Thousands of Dol lars Monthly in the Line Cities.

 Fleischer in Nogales, Sonora, about A year ago, is now thing of the past. The establishment employ ed about thirty people and was conducted just long enough to dem onstrate that Mir. Fleischer was right when he expressed the opinion that south of the international line there is a market for the produc- ton of large factory. The little clothing factory established could not begin to supply the demand, but the enlarged establishment will fill a large portion of the West Mexican field.
 The former factory is being re- placed by one that will employ POO people, and turn out 150 dozen overalls and Kahkis daily. It will have pay roll of about $7,0OO a month-a goodly sum for distribu- tion through the business channels of the line cities, and splendid addition to the steadily increasing volume.
 The building for the new factory is now complete, and during the past week, Superintendent J. B. Bristol, of the Nogales Electric Light & Power company, with his able electrical expert, MT. Ed. Hol- fen, installed in the engine room the dynamos that will furnish power for the operation of the one hundred and fifty machines that are now being installed in the big work room.
 The new building is l60xl40 feet. The work room is 75x35 feet, the cutting room 75x35 feet, the stock room 60x35 feet, and the finishing room 25x35 feet. The engine room is 40x35 feet.
 The product of the factory will be rough work clothes, the material for which can be passed from the United States or any other country at a cost that vii enable the factory to undersell any competing estab- lisment that will have to pay duty on manufactured garments shipped into Mexico.
 Mir. Fleischer is now arranging for trip to Europe for the purpose of perfecting arrangements with European houses to furnish mate rial for the factory.
 Experienced salesmen will travel through Sonora, Sinaloa, Lower California, and other west coast states in Mexico, working up the trade for the enterprise. Later on a first class merchant tailoring de partment will be added to the fac tory.
