q New Departure.

The advent at Nogales this week of the Raymond Teal Comedy Company marks a new departure in the theatrical annals of the line city which is due to the intelligent effort of Mir. H. J. Temple, super intendent of the Sonora and the Nogales- Cananea railways, to com pass which Mir. Temple has worked ever since assuming the position. Many excellent companies would have cone to Nogales but for the fact that they could not get into the town from the main line of the Southern Pacific or from Bisbee without losing the nights they arrived, on account of the lateness of the train from the north in reaching Nogales. Mir. Temple con ceived plan whereby there night be saved to the companies travelling through Arizona that night by bringing them to Nogales from Bisbee via Naco and Del Rio, to accomplish which arrange ments had to be made with both the Mexican and American custom houses for little or no delay in crossing baggage and scenery. That done he worked to get the companies, the Raymond Teal Company this week being the first The new arrangement worked to a charm, and Nogales will be now on regular theatrical circuit; which will be taken advantage by many good theatrical companies.

M Mallclousness.

Monday Justice Chatham gave one Juan Feliz a jail sentence of twenty days for disturbing the peace, which offence was committed Wednesday or Thursday of last week, but the culprit had not been apprehended until Sunday even- ing. He had disturbed the peace of sundry and various people by carrying along the street large snake, alive, which he held by the nape of the neck, and thrusting the reptile into the faces of passers. One of the victims of his hideous sport is a woman who was fright ened exceedingly at having the head of a hissing ophidian stuck up against her countenance. Sport so hideous and brutal might be at tended by consequences very seri- ous for one upon whom perpetrat- ed. and the feeling is that the pl nishment was very light for the offence.

Returned From the Survey

A special telegram to the Bisbee Review, from Douglas, dated the 18th ult., has the following items of interest to readers of THE OASIS.
 Frank Turner returned to Doug las yesterday from Sonora where he had been with surveying party now engaged'in making a final and definite survey of what is known as "Lot No. 4 vast tract of land south of Douglas, lying west and north of Fronteras. The tract con- tains AT ,000 acres, approximately. On this tract are vast areas of agricultural, mineral and g aging land. It includes great forest of timber in the Ajo mountains and what is known as the Tordillo mining district is part of Lot No. A."
 This vast possession was origin ally a grant made by the Mexican government to a German syndicate in 1887. It has since passed through successive owners until last year, when it became the property of the Bank of Sonora as a result of large loan made upon 1t.
 Mir. Turner said yesterday that he was compelled to leave the surveying outfit and return to Douglas on account of his health. He was with the survey for three weeks. The survey outfit consists of large party of surveyors, helpers and soldiers, it requiring twenty five pack animals to ac- commodate the party.
 Lot No. 4" is a vast property and with a start in the develop ment of northern Sonora, expected soon as the result of railroad con struction, it will greatly enhance in value.
 The survey instanced is tha which Engineer Ignacio Bonilla' of Nogales, Sonora, went over into that part of the country early las month to accomplish, Mir. Bonilla being the engineer in charge.

PRINCETON, Dec. 13.-After several
nights of further observation and the
receipt of cabled advices and calcutta
lions from eminent foreign astron-
omers, Zaccheus Daniel, fellow in as
tronolny at Princeton University, ap-
nounced today some new and interest
ing facts about his latest comet-the
baby tailless Daniel comet ofy1s09, dis
covered last week.
A cable from DR.. Ebep, 'at KEEL, Ger

when Mr.. Daniel found the celestial
wonder, it was very nearly at peri

he had calculated that the comet was

and abt at IS, Oo0. 600 miles from the
earth.

time, probably for several months
said Mr.. Daniel, but the tail, if the
comet has one. will probably never be
visible, even through a strong teie-
scope. 1t is now easily seen through

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Dec. ia wave of
bullish enthusiasm swept over the
grain pits today and carried prices
sharply higher, the gains in some in
stances being more than two cents,
compared with the previous close. May
corn advanced to a new high point for
the crop, the price touching 81 cents,
almost 2 cents above the previous high
mark.
Opening quotations on wheat showed
gains of u to 2h, the latter being on
December. which opened at HIGHLY.
May opened at 109MG110A. Demand
was active and general. because of con-
tinued light receipts and excellent de-
mand for the cash grain. Early in the
day December touched lily, while May
sold up to 1101a. Later prices reacted
about Il a cent on profit-taking.
The new high mark for May corn was
marked by a general rush to buy. due
largely to rain over the greater part
of the corn belt. Prices at the start
We're from Il to q to 2b@2A cents
above the previous close. the greatest
gain being on the May delivery. which
opened at ssh TO 66a4. Before the de-
mand was temporarily satisfied the
price had been forced np to 81. There
was considerable realizing on the bulge
and the future options declined about
/ cent before the end of the first hour.
May steadying for a time around 66h.
Oats share in the general stampede
of shorts, and the consequent big bulge
in prices, opening quotations being y
ITO rs higher than Saturdays final
figures. Light receipts and unfavor-
able weather for the movement were
bullish influences. The May delivery
opened It As to ASK and for a time held
within that range.

start. owing TO a 10 cent decline In
live hogs, due to larger receipts than
had been estimated. The bulge in
grain, however caused a substantial
rally early in the session, pork being
especially firm. Opening prices were

The vast scope of the proposed COM

to take in not only the Rothschild in

WALL STREET NOTES.

Uptown Sentimental well-known
railroad official. in discussing the hnan-
cial situation this morning, said thai
he was unable to see n heavy cloud
upon the horizon. He thinks that the
tone of President Taft's first message
viii continue TO be a factor in Wall
street n in financial circles generally
for some time to come. Although 1t has
been rumored that the Encouragement
might recommend further radical action
with respect to the corporations. this
man is inclined to doubt that anything
of a serious character viii be forth
coming from that quarter. Specula-
tors, IN the whole, are inclined to take
a more hopeful view OF the situation.
Stocks ought to rule firm today and
can be bought on weak spots. Money
conditions are becoming easier. both
here and in London. The weekly bank
statement disclosed that funds were
returning from the South and the in
terror. Equally important as a mar
ket factor is the spread of the belief
that time is ripe to make a moderate
advance in freight rates in order to
pay railroad employees higher wages.
When this movement is under way all
standard rails can De bought. In the
meantime, prices lag on account of re-
cent heavy stock issues, all of which
have to be digested. Brokers do not
look for any substantial advance in
prices today, but the tone promises to
be steady, and as vas the case at the
close last week, a creeping upward
market. As money becomes easier,
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific will
sell higher. Consolidated Gas can be
safely bought at this level. Copper
shares will sell higher. as the metal
situation is now steadily improving.
