First Car Operated on Electric Line.

If somebody had told George War
rem, the discoverer of Bisbee, TWEEN
ty-six years ago, that by this, time
there would be more than 10000 peo-
pie Lying in these canyons, supported.
by mining enterprises which rival
any in the world, and that real, live
electric street cars would be in oper-
alton, as well as automobiles, and
every other kind of conveyance, the
old prospector would probably have
hit the speaker over the head with
pick handle and told him to quit
''joshing." But one day last week a
handsome new electric street car was
run out of the car barn at Warren
with @. G. Adsit, consulting engineer
for the Cole interests, at the levers,
and made a trip from one end of Ari-
IONA street to another.
Adsit with his assistants, completed
the task of carrying the current from
the Oliver electric plant to Warren,
and late in the afternoon the cars
were placed in a condition for trial
run. There were some minor diff
culties experienced when the first at
tempt was made, to start the cars,
but later everything worked properly
and car No. 1O1 pulled out of the
barn with c.. G. Adsit, Col. G. w.
Van Dyke, manager of the Warren
company, J. B. Grand, Ralph Cad
well, superintendent, and a Review
representative on board. The car
was run out along Arizona street and
back again. everything working per-
feCtly.
The company's engineers took up
the task of surveying line to the
prospective site of the Warren Dis
trict Country club, and as soon as the
location is decided upon work will be
commenced.
The town now has more than $780,
600 worth of buildings, sewer system,
a water system, street car line, and
in fact everything that goes to make
a city modern and Re
view.

Copper Exports Heavier Than for Long
Time.

Price fluctuations in the copper
metal have of late been small and
there has been no &C tiYity in the
market, but continued large ship
ments abroad make the subject of
much discussion in trade circles, and
are causing more or less agitation in
the minds of consumers, who, for
ments abroad as the mere reflection
of shifting in loans. The consum-
ers are saying to themselves that the
great volumes of the exports of cop
per at least show the ability of the
copper interests to borrow money,
with which to carry their stocks,
rather than sell at a price not in
keeping with the cost of production.
One of the most encouraging bust
ness signs of the day developed in
the money market in the shape Of
greater willingness on the part of
the leaders to accept loans secured
by industrial collateral. The rate on
these loans has been holding one-half
per cent. to one per cent. above the
rate named on mixed collateral, and
today there was an appreciate
spread between the rates quoted on
these collaterals. independence on
the part of borrowers is very notice
able.
Perhaps the most significant fea-
ture in money is the increasing &C
tivity in commercial paper. Choice
names today were discontinued at a
rate as low as 81 per cent, and it is
difficult to find offerings of really
good paper above per cent. OF
course there are many borrowers who
are willing to pay II per cent. for
money, but they are not to be classed
among the keenest observers of con-

Man Sneezed Hi, ARM Out Of JOint.

You've heard man say lie almost
sneezed his head off haven't you?
Almost, mind you, but not quite.
Well, Carman Legg of the local car
repair shops can now say that he al
most lost an arm that way. He
sneezed it out of joint, at any rate,
and it took considerable effort on the
part of two men to get it back in
place.
The curious accident to Mr.. Legg
is said to haYe happened while he
was under car doing some repair
work. He was crouching low and all
bent up at his work when he felt a
tremendous sneeze coming on. He
could tell that it was going to be a
big one, so he thought he would just
timber up and enjoy it. He loosened
up one shoulder a little too much,
however, for when the critical mo-
ment came he went through such a
contortion that the violence of the
shock completely dislocated the loose
shoulder and the victim found him
self in great pain.
One of Mr.. Legg's shoulders is said
to have been crippled for some time,
so that it easily comes out of place.
And while the story of the accident
seems most improbable, it is said to
have happened very easily. Some
difficulty was experienced in getting
the arm back in place. 1t required
the services of two men, but it was
finally accomplished without the
necessity of administering an auaes-
thetic.-Douglas Dispatch.

The Pure Food Law

Secretary Wilson says: "One of the
objects of the law is to inform the
consumer of the presence of certain
harmful drugs in medicines" The
law requires that the amount of
chloroform, opium, morphine, and
other habit forming drugs be stated
on the label of each bottle. The
manufacturers of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy have always claimed
that their remedy did not contain
anv of. these drugs, and the truth of
this claim is now fully proven, as no
mention of them is made on the label.
This remedy is not only one of the
safest. but one of the best in use for
coughs and colds. Its value has been
proven beyond question during the
many years it has been in general
use. For sale by all druggists.

A LARGE DEMAND
FOR GRAPE FRUIT.
Which Will Exhaust the Arizona Supply
Long Before it is Satisfied.


While the busiest part of the
orange season has passed and the
large part of the shipments have
been made from the valley, the pack
ing house is still running and will
continue to operate till some time
late in the spring. Mr.. G. E. Jordon
will be the official superintendent
and head boss there from now on, the
care.
About twelve more cars of oranges
will be shipped this season, but they
will be made up of bloods mostly.
With these additional CARROTS, the
total shipments from the valley will
be 120 cars, a much greater number
than was at first estimated. OF the
desert brand, "fancy," 1876 half,
and 6612 whole boxes were shipped; of
the Cactus "choice" brand, 20,994
whole boxes. About one car load has
been consumed locally. The reports
are now coming in on the cash re-
turns and the cars of Desert brand
have averaged about S14OO, while the
Cactus cars sold from $500 to $1,000,
and averaged about $1,000 each.
There will also be about fifteen cars
of lemon and a couple of grape fruit.
The demand for the latter has been
so great that the supply is far from
adequate. The fame of the Arizona
product as being far superior to that
of any other section, has been
brought to the notice of the public
and buyers in wholesale markets are
anxious to get them, and pay the
price, offering $3.50 f. o. b. Phoenix
for boxes of. grape fruit. The Har-
vey system, which always furnishes
the best on the market along the
Santa Fe to the travellers, is anxious
to get all the Arizona grape fruit to
be had and the dining car service on
the road is also after it.
Grape fruit is likely as the years go
by, to prove a much more popular
fruit as the public is just becoming
acquainted with its merits as an edi-
BILE. Several additional acres will be
set out in the trees around Phoenix
this spring, but with the growing de-
mand, Arizona orchards can nowhere
meet the supply unless fruit growers
increase in large numbers, as they
will no doubt, with the completion of
the dam.
Mr.. Fleming, the manager of the
packing house, has received deluge
of testimonial letters from all over
the country on the quality of the
Arizona orange in towns like Terre
Haute, Indiana, where the delicious
Desert Fancys or Cactus Choice never
were heard of before, the fruit has
been grabbed and there were calls
for more. In the language of one
commission house there, ''they intro
duce themselves and sell on sight"
In all the l08 cars of navels shipped,
there has not been received one soli-
tary complaint from the eastern pur-
chaser which is the strongest kind of
d testimonial. 1t is believed with the
extensive advertising of the year,
the next seasons crop can be sold in
advance right in Phoenix.

DIR. RICKETTS, TALKS
OF CANANEA CAMP.
Tells of Important Work Of Greene.
Cananea Since Production Ceased.

Cananea Since Production Ceased.
DIR. L. D. Ricketts,, general man.
ager of Greene-Cananea company,
was in Ell Paso last week and is re-
ported to have stated that there was
nothing definite about tie time the
Cananea mines and reduction plant
would open up again, this depending
entirely upon the financial condition
in the east and the quoted price of
copper
In the meantime the mines and re-
ducing plant of the Cananea proper
ties are being actively developed and
improved so that when the company
again begins active operations every
thing will be in condition for long
and prosperous run. The Puertacitas
group of mines above Ronquillo dis
trict are being developed and num-
Der of valuable veins of ore discov-
tain. The America mine is also be-
ing worked and much high grade ore
found there
The work Of remodeling the smelter
is progressing rapidly, according to
DIR. Ricketts, statement, and when it
is completed will be more convenient
and economical than the former ar
rangement. The old method was to
have the ore dumped into the
furnaces by hand from the ore bins,
but these bins have been rebuilt so
that they feed automatically by grav-
ity, thus perfectlng a saving in labor
and time consumed in getting the ore
reduced.
The mills in concentration No. l are
being repaired and rebuilt in prepar-
alton for the opening of the mines
and the machinery of both the old
and new concentrators is being over
hauled. The canvas cyanide plant
that was planned to reduce the tail
ings from the concentrators has been
abandoned as the general manager
has discovered more effective means
of reducing this waste product. The
gravity concentration that was to
have been built on the hill opposite
the present concentrators will not be
erected at present. if at all, as the
water supply for these concentrate tors
is serious question in the Sonora
camp and if a third concentration is
built it will be near good supply of
water.
DIR. Ricketts, stated that the new
smelter the company was reported to
be planning north of Cananea on the
Yaqui railroad was still in the future
and that nothing definite had been
decided regarding its erection. The
present smelter capacity was not
equal to the work demanded of it
when the camp was running full force
and the practicability of building a
new and modern smelling plant near
Del Rio, between Cananea and Naco,
was discussed and a brick plant es-
tablished at Del Rio with view of
making bricks for the new plant, but
the general manager says that such
a plant is not in the present plan of
action, as the increased capacity of
the old smelter will be sufficient for
all needs when the company starts
up agaln.-American.

Colonel II. L. Pickett who was in
Phoenix from Tombstone to attend
the supreme court, was the speaker.
Pickett is we'll known because of the
prominence he has taken in the fight
against joint statehood during recent
years.
"The Tombstone Consolidated
Mines company" he continued, "has
recently struck a large body of sui
phide copper in the Emerald mine at
a depth of about 600 feet, upon which
it is both sinking and drifting.
"This gives absolute assurance that
the ore bodies of Tombstone are per-
manent and extend to great depth.
Tombstonians feel that prosperity is
assured for the next thirty years and
that the camp will yet duplicate its
production in the early 'S0s, VIII en-
over S40,000,000 in silver was pro-
duced.
"Cochise county is proud of the
fact that Arizona led all the western
states in the production of mineral
in 1907 with its s67, 900, 900 taken out
of the GROUND, but prouder still that
Cochise produced more than one
third of the total. They consider
Cochise county the greatest county

Fine Progress Made on Work in Mexico.
After having spent about two
weeks peregrinating about over the
greater part of the northwestern
half of the republic of Mexico on d
tour of inspection of the Randolph
lines in that section, District Passen-
ger Agent Humphrey, of the South
ern Pacific, has returned to the city.
Mr.. Humphrey left Tucson with the
party of railroad officials who accom-
panied General Torres, of Sonora, on
his official opening of the Navajo
Alamos route to Alamos. He left
the party there and subsequently
visited Hermosillo, Guaymas and
then made a general tour over all the
Mexican lines.
Mr.. Humphrey said: "The opening
of the extension was a great thing to
the people of Alamos. Practically
thousands witnessed it who had never
seen railroad train before and the
advent of the special was taken by
them as one of the seven wonders of
the world. The special car, Silver
bell, which carried our party stood on
a track which was about four feet be-
low an embankment, and every hour
in the day while it remained there
hundreds would stand and talk inter-
minably about the wonderful sight as
they inspected all its various apart
ments.
my trip over the Mexican lines
was very interesting. Railroad con-
ditions down there are a great deal
better than is thought. All the roads
are in good condition and they are be-
ing kept in state of improvement
in spite of the money stringency that
compares favorably with the roads in
states.
"There is no let-up in railroad de-
velopment and extension in Mexico
-
Alamos line is going to be profitable
to the road and it is regarded as a
great boon by the inhabitants of the
territory in and around Alamos, and
in fact along the entire line of ex-

increase in the development of their
