PURE AIR FOR SLEEPERS.
Fumigation as Used To Destroy Germs
of Disease.


In an article on the disinfection OF
sleeping apartments, Professor Koe-
! mig, of Goettingen. says that at one
time, while he was practicing medi-
cine at Hanan, he suddenly discov-
ered that his bedroom was thickly
inhabited by bugs. A friend assured
him that he could easily get rid OF
the pests. and proceeded TO fumigate
the apartments with corrosive subli-
| mate.
The success of the operation was
gratifying, and when the room was
opened the dead bodies of various
kinds Of insects were seen strewL
about the floor. This incident led

means would be effectual in destroy.

houses after scarlet fever or measles
and in hospitals after erysipelas gave
most satisfactory results.
Since adopting this method he has
never seen second case OF conta.
glous disease which could be attrib.
uted to infection remaining in the
room in which the patient had been
confined. The mode OF procedure Is
very simple. Two ounces OF corro.
sive sublimate are put on plate
over a chatting dish, and then the win.
dows and doors of the room are
closed At the expiration OF three or
four hours the windows are opened
and the apartment is thoroughly
aired. The person entering the
room should take the precaution to

There has been much argument in
various quarters that Congress should
remove the duty on white paper from
Canada, ii being held that this would
relieve conditions in the United
States. Mr.. Dillon believes such a
step would bring no relief whatever.
Parliament enact an export duty on
pulp logs. The American paper
maker is not getting raw material
from Canada because his field of sup
ply is exhausted. II such an export
duty were imposed there IL would
merely mean that the cutting in
American forests would be increased
Then again. such step on
Canada's part would mean probably
that American capital would cross
the border and build its mills there,
thus distributing its money through
payrolls in the Dominion rather than
in the United States. That would not
be step of benefit 10 our own couI-
try and its people, believe"

action through monopolistic control
was in any way responsible for ad-
vanced prices. He said:
Il want to say that the Great
Northern Paper Company stands ut
terly alone. 1t has no condition or
working agreement with any other
papermaking company in the world.

George H. Crosby, assistant dis
trict attorney of Graham county
who resides in Stafford, came to Cliff
ton this week on business connected
with his office. He Was joined later
by A. A. Anderson, sheriff, and they
will spend the next few days in Cliff
ton, Morenci, Metcalf and Duncan
taking evidence which will be used
during the next term of the district
court. By doing this they will great
ly facilitate the probability of delays
in the conduct of cases that will come
before the court. In this respect the
present district attorney has made
an excellent record. Mr.. Crosby is a
first-Class lawyer and has a good
reputation at Apache, in which
county he served as district attorney.

Jimmy Hogan, who has been rum
ming the skip at the A. c.. reduction
works the past five or six years, met
with what proved to be a costly acct
dent Tuesday of this week. The skip
jumped the track and he left his
station to assist in putting the car
back on the track. Jimmy got into
the car to balance it and when it was
placed on the track the brake slip
ped and had he not rolled out in 4
hurry he would have been seriously
injured. His leg was caught by the
cable and his pants and underclothes
were ripped off and his leg skinned.
Upon investigation d few minutes
later Jimmy discovered that he was
shy 1920 which he was in the habit of
carrying in his sock. He made a
search for it Immediately but could
not find it and decided that it had
been picked up by an unknown party.
\ reward of 300 will be given for
the return of the money to the ERA
office and no questions will be asked
about it. Mr.. Hogan is a hard work
ing man and the return of the money
will be a great help to him.

The DarktOwn Ministries.

Clifton will be treated to one of
the star performances of the season
next Saturday night, April 18th, at
the opera house. 1t will be the
Darktown Minstrels, purely a home
team, although number of the boys
are oldtimers at the business. The
company is composed of twenty peo-
pie, five of whom will furnished the
music. The minstrel is made up
almost wholly of the band boys They
have devoted much time to rehears-
ing and have incurred much expense
for costumes and should be favored
with a packed house. They guaran-
tee your moneys worth. Catchy
music, funny jokes and numerous
heart-itching selections, Reserved
seats on sale at the drug store.
They will perform at Morenci next
Wednesday evening, April 10, and at
Duncan in the near future.

The A. 81 N. NJ. railway has just
made a change in the curve at the
point of rocks just before reaching
the switch to the Shannon hill road.
The track was relaid closer to the
mountain and the wagon road was
changed to the opposite side of the
track next TO the river. The chang
reduced the curve from twenty-three
to nine degrees. In addition to this
the company is doing a great deal of
work in the local freight yards. The
old lines are being repaired and the
a. & N. NJ. will soon have frst-class
railroad yard.

New Base Ball Diamond at MOrenci.

For the past four or five years Mo-
renci base ball fans have been dis
cussing the building OLA diamond.
They have at last secured a building
site on the D. c. Stag dump. The
surface will be leveled and covered
with tailings and grandstand will
be built. The base ball association
has been organized and is represent
ed by some of the best citizens of Mo-
renci. The building of diamond at
Morenci will be the accomplishment
of what was always considered an i'm
possibility. 1t is indeed a big under
taking and the Morenci people should
be congratulated upon their enter
prise.
This diamond will be the only ball
ground in the world that is located on
the rim of a mountain and it will be
necessary to build a substantial high
fence around it to prevent lost balls.
A ball batted over the fence will be
a sure enough home run.
Now that Morenci is to have d
ground of her own the Clifton team
will have the pleasure of playing re-
turn games. There will be another
advantage. Clifton and Morenci can
work together and divide the expense
of bringing outside teams to this dis
trict. Morenci already has the best
team in the territory and when they
get their own grounds they will have
an opportunity to improve their field
work.

NJ. c. Billingsley, who arrived in
Clifton about a month ago from Cal
ifornia is now at Billiards hot springs.
Mr.. Billingsley was suffering from d
severe case of ciatic rheuma tism,
which attacked him last fall and has
been getting worse ever since until
he visited the local springs. When
be went to Billiards springs he was
hardly able to walk and his friends
feared that his case was incurablC
After he was there a couple of weeks
his condition was greatly improved
and it is now thought that he will re-
turn within a few weeks a well man.
The Gilliard springs are gradually be-
coming famous for the curing of
rheumatism and other ailments and
this last case is the first one of its
nature that has been treated there.
The curing of Mr.. Billingsley will be
a great card for the springs, which
are destined to become a popular re-
sort in the very near future. Mr..
Gillidrd should organize a company
and build hotel at the springs for
the purpose of Offering better accom-
mediation to his customers. 1t was
through the advice of friends that
Mr.. Billingsley visited the springs as
he had visited other hot springs but
received no relief. Macs many
friends are glad to learn that he is
on the road to recovery.

The Libel Case.

The libel case against number of
Mexican residents of Metcalf and
the editor and manager of the Mo-
renci Leader, caused by the printing
of an article about Tim Nardelli.
came up Tuesday before Justice
Smith. After a consultation between
the attorneys it was decided to pass
the case to the grand jury, which
meets in a few days. The defend
ants were released on their own
recognizauce to await the action of
the grand jury. Mr.. Erricson who
was named as one of the defendants,
was dismissed, it having been shown
that he was not responsible for the
publication of the article. The case
attracted much attention Tuesday
and the transfer of the case to tae
grand jury prevented what would
have been a lengthy trial. The
transfer also saved the county much
expense.
a number of the Mexicans who are
interested in the case have resided
at Metcalf number of years and it
is rumored were mislead into the
trouble Tim Nardeln has also re-
sided at Metcalf many years.
