MocTEzuMA IMPROVES.

During the last three or four months Moctezuma, the capital of the Moctezuma mining district. has been reported to be rather quiet, owing to the general falling off of activity in the mining industry. However, Moe tezuma, like other towns depending upon active mining for trade, is now beginning to recover.
 Carlos LaoiZa, a prominent attor- ney of that town. writing a business letter to this office, adds the follow ing:
 Tt has been raining here for two days; there has been no heavy fall, but sufficient to do abundant good to the growing wheat along the Mocte- zuma river.
 Business in general is showing signs of improvement. In a short time the smelter Of the Promontorio and Anexas Mining company, of which MT. R. P. Travers is manager and one of the largest stockholders, will be blown in. Mir Travers is ex- pected here every day; he will be accompanied by three experienced smeltermen, who will erect the plant. Most of the machinery for this smelt- CT has arrived at the mining camp, forty miles southeast of this city"
 Mir Laoizo has resided for a num- Der of years at Moctezuma and is the attorney for number of important mining companies in the Moctezuma district-Dougias Dispatch.

PRAISES MccA8E.

Writing to David T. Dunlap of this city from Salt Lake City, Utah, Har- " B. Henderson of Cheyenne, Wyo, state examiner for Wyoming, com mends in glowing terms the splendid work done at the Dry Farming con. gress by c. J. McCabe of this coun- ty in behalf of Douglas as the meet ing place of the next congress.
 Your city and state" writes Mir. Henderson, were ably represented by Hon. G. J. McCabe, who was a fighter from beginning to end, and l am sure that Douglas, Arizona, and all the resources of your territory are more widely known today than they have ever been before. You have no advertising agency that equals MT. McCabe, and while his city was out voted for the next convention, yet it was a close call, and his masterly ef- forts and brilliant oratory, together with the hospitality which he prom ised from your people, were such as to win the approbation of many of the delegates.

HUNDRED MONTE CARLO
 ACROSS MEXICAN BORDER

A rumor Chat Agua Prieta is soon to be converted into a miniature Monte Carlo, where every kind of gambling game from craps to faro will be privi- legged to operate in wide open, free and easy style, has been current o1 the streets of this city for a day ort wo, creating much interestin among the re spectiye classes of citizens.
 The report circulated is denied most strenuously by the best citizens of that city, who say that it is most ridiculous despite the assertions of others, who say they know that promises have al ready been made to extend this con cession. It Is understood that those interested in the operation of such bus mess have been working for some time to obtain such a concession from the authorities of the state of Sonora and have been greatly encouraged by re- cent communications. At che same time those who are supposed to know. laugh at the idea of the state authori- ties granting such license when 1t is strictly against the federal law of Mexico, and they cite the fact that a number of men who attempted to op- crate games in the city of Cuidad Juarez were most vigorously prosecut- ed recently by the authorities of the Mexican government.
 Such a scheme would certainly trans form the staid little border town with bonn of riotous dissipation of good money from Douglas. and the traffic between the two cities would probably warrant the building of two or three street car lines but there is little like lihood that such Q transformation will occur. A great many business men have taken keen interest in the story since its currency on the street and one or two haS~ writteS to both the government authorities at Mexico and those of the state of Sonora at Her mosillo.-Douglas Dispatch.

JUDGE AS A DEFECTIVE.

Judge Butner of Pirtleville has re- gently done a very successful piece of detective work, in which he rounded up former employe by the name of John Draper, who recently disappeared from town leaving lot of bills among the local merchants charged to the account of his employer.
 Draper was employed up until about two months ago in the meat and gro cery store of MT. Buttner in Pirtle- vile, and considerable confidence was imposed in him by the judge, who is generally busy in his official capacity as justice of the peace. His honor sud denly became suspicious that things were not going just as they should and before he had time to investigate he was surprised by the sudden disap- pearance of Draper. The situation was soon well known and since that time the justice has been on a still hunt for his man. He located him a few days ago in Tucson, where he made a quick trip and surprised him. He effected a settlement without bringing the man to court and just returned yesterday from accomplishing his errand- Douglas Dispatch.

GRANT MINE.

W. Gerbrich is in the city today, having arrived yesterday from the Giant mine owned by himself and c. E. Hartwell of Los Angeles. Mir. Gerbrich brought a sample of ore with him to the Copper Queen smelt- CT which he struck few days ago in a tunnel which he had been running to cut a ledge which cropped out on the surface. The ledge was cut at a distance of 1S9 feet from the mouth of the tunnel and now three feet of high grade copper and silver ore has been encountered which will average not less than s150 to the ton. The day Mir. Gerbrich left the mine he took out more than a ton of this ore without any help.
 This morning MT. Gerbrich tele- graphed to his partner in Los Ange- les to come to Douglas for the pur- rose of making arrangements for the future operation of this property. IL is the intention to begin shipping to the smeIter in this city as soon as possible. The ore will be shipped from Tuicachi.
 The Giant mine is located about eight miles south of the Valdeza prop erty which is now being operated by a leasing company composed of the stockholders in the Valde- ga company It Is expected. accord ing to report, that the vaideza will also be shipping ore to the smelter here in the near future.-~Douglas Dis patch.

SEWER WILL COST
 OVER s14,OO0.O0
Figures Regarding Construc- ton of System to Connect
 With Bisbee Drain.
Lowell. January sO. 1sOs.

Lowell, January 30, 1908.
 The construction of branch sewer to connect with the Bisbee sewer at a point in Lowell is contemplated by the citizens of Upper Lowell and Jig geryille, and for this purpose an cleo tion will be held on Saturday after noon at the Upper Lowell club house. the polls to be open from 12 to z o'clock. The cost of the sewer has been a source of mystery to the resi- dents of the localities which will be benefited by it's construction, and for their benefit the following figures have been compiled: The cost of construc- ton will amount to s1O,000, which amount has already been promised by certain capitalists at per cent per annum Including this interest, the total cost of the branch system will be s14.21e.72, payments of si,000 each to be made yearly for fifteen years, the last payment amounting to S210.72, to be made in 1923 These figures do not include the rentals which the City of Bisbee will secure, which will be s45 monthly, which, during the fifteen years taken in the payment off of the debt, will amount to sS,100.00. This added to the interest, S4,210.72, and the principal. s1O.00O, will bring the cost of the sewer to S22.310.72.
 The building of this branch sewer will be a great boon to the residents of the neighborhood surrounding Sp- per Lowell, and, with sewer -hains in all it's streets, the sanit9zy conditions at that part will be of ehe best in the district.

OPPOSITION TO BRYAN
 IN NEW JERSEY


 TRENTON, N. J., Jan. 3G.-Eiorts said to be backed by the regular dem ocratic state committee are being made to discount the visit of Wm. J. Bryan, who is coming to New Jer- sey next week to deliver several ad- dresses under the auspices of the New Jersey Progressive Democratic league, which is the recognized Bry- an organization It has been appar- ent for some time that the league in tends to put up a stiff fight to have solid Bryan delegation sent from this state to the Denver convention. The old-line democrats have not talk en kindly to this idea. though 1t was not until very recently that they have taken any steps to balk the plans of the Bryan element Now the auxil- iary committee of the democratic state committee has arranged to give dinner in Newark tonight, and the fact that it has invited Senator Dan iel of Virginia, an acknowledged anti Lryan man, to speak on the occasion, is regarded as evidence that the state committee will work to head of the Bryan sentiment which has been gaining force unopposed iH New ter sey.
 The members of the Progressive league, however, declare that they are not worried over the action of the state committee. They declare that the democratic sentiment in New Jersey is overwhelmingly in favor of Mir. Bryan and that nothing can pre- vent the delegation being sent from this state with instructions to vote for the Nebraskan's nomination. Meanwhile the league is preparing to make the most of Mir. Bryan's coming visit Speeches have been arranged for in Newark, Jersey City, Passaic and one or two other cities.

AGED MAN RUN DOWN
 BY fAST-MOV|AG CAR
Motonman Drops Fender IT Time To Save Nonogena
 rian From Death.

TUCSON, Jan. 30.-Thomas Allen, one of the oldest residents of the ter ritory, was knocked down Sunuay by a street car and dragged for a con. siderable distance. He is 94 years old, and owing to his advanced age it is feared that he injuries he sustained will result in his death.
 It was due to prompt action on the part of tle niotorman in lowering the street car fender that Mir. Allen was not ground to death beneath the ear wheels.
 The accident occurred at the loon where the Fourth avenue line turns From Fifth avenue into Toole avenue. It is supposed that Mir. Allen, owing to his age. did not hear the car ap. preaching and attempted to cross the tracks in front of the car.
 He was struck and knocked in froar Of the car. As he fell the fender was dropped and the aged man was caught by this and rolled along for several feet before the car could be brought to stop.
 He was picked up by the street car crew and taken in carriage to the office of Dr. H. W. Fenner. There he was given medical attention and was then removed to St. Mary's hospital in the Southern Pacific ambulance.
 Mir. Allen has been a resident of Tucson for about six years. He is a brother of Mrs. John Stockman and came to Arizona from California. where he was one of the early pion- eers in that state.
 Despite his advanced years he was still active and vigorous and looked fully ten years younger than his real age. It was reported at the hospital this afternoon that he was resting fairly easy, but grave fears are en- tertained for his recovery, as it is doubtful whether he will be able to withstand teh shock of the accident.
