ple. The Santa Cruz club. recently
organized for social intercourse, has
membership of 1875 and comfortably
furnished rooms
THE town has an elevation of $3.50
feet and will in course of time demand
attention as a health resort. During
the early SOS when yellow fever ra-
vaged the coast towns of Mexico and
thousands fled from them, Nogales
looked like and was great hospital.
People. fever laden, died by dozens, but
1t is g. remarkable fact that it was inn
possible to take the infection there.
The writer of this article was called
there to investigate affairs when the
epidemic was at its worst.
The Montezuma, then the only hotel
in the town, was full to oyerfiowing
with yellow fever patients. One occu-
pied a bed on the billiard table in the
barroom of the hotel. Whatever guests
there were in the hotel vacated their
rooms in favor of the afflicted ones as
they were brought in from the lower
country, and contented themselves with
blankets on the dining room tables.
Through the thin board petitions the
sick could be heard groaning. vomit-
ing and dying all night, but so far as
those well were concerned that was
all there was to it. 1t was impossible
for infection to spread. The Mexican
government sent it's troops there for
safety and kept them there until the
contagion was over in the lower coast
towns. Despite the rush of the af-
flicted to it, the town and its people
were absolutely immune.
GRANT HURTS TOWN
The Nogales country is in a measure
handicapped by the so-called Baca
grant. This grant is float and was
given to the heirs of said Baca in
lieu of certain Mexican lands But
the lands upon which said grant was
to be placed were to be unoccupied,
non-mineral, agricultural lands. In
the placing of the "f1oat" these restric-
tive provisions were disregarded and
the entire western slope of the Santa
Rita mountains was embraced within
its claims. Cunningly the heirs al
lowed many years to elapse before any
attempt was made to enforce owner
ship, and when this was done it found
the country rich with settlers and de-
veloped mines and farms.
The case was at once thrown into
court and it is now up to the govern
ment to unravel the tangle, but in the

1t has been owned for the past thirty
odd years by Hon. ]. K. Brown, to
which place in 1872 he took his fair
young wife when he brought her from
Ohio, and where most if not all their
children were born. Henceforward 1t
will be known as Sahuarita station. 1t
stands Immediately at the point where
the Calabasas connection enters the
Twin Buttes road.
1t was first located in the long ago
by man named Rice. He later aban-
doned the place. Subsequently it was
taken possession of by the late o. G.
Benedict, and it was at this place Mrs.
w. C. Green was born. Again 1t was
abandoned and later taken up by the
late Thomas Roddick and James X.
Brown. It has remained in possession
of Mr.. Brown ever since. The family
no longer live there and the place wears
a deserted look in all that desertion i'm

UP-TO-DATE TOWN
IT has a few American looking res-
licences, but, as a rule, the Mexican
stvle of architecture has been followed
throughout. The streets are daily
sprinkled and swept and, taken as
a whole, it is one of the neatest and
cleanest little towns to be found in
the southwest. It's trade, of course.
is largely from the agricultural and
mining districts to the south, which
in the aggregate is said to amount
to a large sum annually.
Henry Levin Nand Henry Meyer,
both born. and raised and educated in
Tucson, are doing the business OF the
town Is forwarding and commission
brokers. They receive goods on con-
signment, pay freights and forward
same to destination. Anything in
transit between the two countries is
taken charge of and delivered when
and where wanted. Last year they
handled about 5000 head of cattle
for American buyers and expect to
handle many more this present year.
Buyers recently in the state have ar
ranged for 5000 head to be shipped out
in May.

The lesson was a severe one, and al
though they followed for some dis
tance, they never dared again attack.
When nearing Calabasas they became
aware that another conflict was on.
Later they encountered a body of In
dians in retreat, pursued by a party
of horsemen. The Brady party then
attacked the Indians and killed many.
BATTLE WITH INDIANS
These Indians had, so Mr.. Brady
afterwards learned, attacked the mis-
sion and rancheria at Calabasas. I'm
able to cope with such great numbers,
the besieged garrison succeeded in
getting assistance from the garrison
at Tucson. On this assistance arriv-
ing at Calabasas, they boldly attacked
the besieging force and in a hand to
hand conflict inflicted on them
bloody defeat. Mr.. Brady, in speaking
of the occurrence to the writer re-
peatedly expressed his admiration of
the soldiers from the Tucson garrison.
Their skill as horsemen, their bearing
and courage were such as to elicit

1857, on the expulsion of the Jesuits

impression on it. While galloplng
around the post and yelling defiance at
the garrison a big mule ridden by a
Texan was killed by being struck with
a pound ball fired from cannon IN
one of the torreons of the fort.
KILLED THREE APACHEs
The return to the Rio Grande was
made UP the Santa Cruz by way OF
Calabasas. When near the old San
Xavier mission they surprised a camp
of Apaches and killed three. At Gala
basas they were Hospitality treated and
left the country without damage. This
statement was made to the writer by
the late Judge Adams of San Luis
Obispo, who, although but II years OF
age, was with the Texans at the time
of their attack on the fort.

Famous "Fourth" Events.

1t is an interesting fact that the
fourth of July has been rendered a
memorable date in American histo-
ry by several incidents other than
the adoption of the Declaration of
Independence at Philadelphia in
1916.
Three ex-presidents of the Unit
ed States have died on that date.
In 1896 Thomas Jefferson, author
of the Declaration, passed away.

ceptance by colonial representa-

with which his name is most in
separately connected. John Adams
also died that same day and year.

MELON CROP MOUNTS
TO MILLIONS ANNUALLY
Rich, Red, Luscious and Green
Fit for A Queen. Have
a Slice and "Wet
Your Ears"

Large, luscious watermelons, of
the dark variety which have
made Georgia famous, are now
grown in Missouri. and to such an
extent that millions are shipped out
annually from the producing coun-
ties to the markets of St. Louis,
Kansas City, Chicago, Indianapolis,
Milwaukee and other large northern
central cities.
Advance figures from the 1910
Red Book of the Labor Statistics
given publicly yesterday by Labor
Commissioner ]. c. A. Hitler, indi-
cate that the watermelon crop of
the ia counties of Missouri for
1909 amounted to o,I7o, 90 melons
each large luscious and delicious
when properly iced and served in
large slices with the rich, red,
tempting meat, thickly bespeckled
with black seeds, turned up. 1t
was probably the largest crop of
melons Missouri has ever raised,
and SO great was the demand for
them from the commercial centers,
that they could not be shipped out
fast enough. With the prevailing
price at ten cents apiece this vast
quantity of Missouri melons was
worth Sol7,oIo. almost enough
money TO make millionaire out of
anyone who could have raised the
entire crop alone.
So favorable is the climate and
the soil of Missouri for watermelons
that about eighty counties produce
moro or less of them every year,
but the majority only enough for
home consumption. More would
be raised if farmers only knew that
there is a market for all they can
ship out, and, it is safe to say that
the wholesale price per melon will
never again be under seven cents,
a profitable figure for growers.

In 1888 ex-President JamesMonroe,
who fought as youth in the Amer
lean Revolution, died on the Fourth
of July.
After a long siege, General U. S.
Grant marched into Vicksburg
July a, 1868, the fallen stronghold
of the Confederacy in the west.
For many weeks the nation had
hoped and prayed for this result.
Grants victory completed the
opening of the Mississippi river and
cut the Confederacy in twain.
The very same day the nation
learned of the defeat of General
Lees army at Gettysburg after
three days of terrific battle. Get
tysbure. historians agree, was the
pivotal battle of the Civil war.
Yet again, on the glorious Fourth
of 1898 was disseminated to the
nation through its eager press the
news of the remarkable victory of
Sampson and Schley over Cervera' s
fleet at Santiago. "a triumph which

were made, and the following state
ments of facts are written along the

| desire to say that we have, be

not only be applied to truck wagons,
but all kinds of cars, ships, mills,

fact, in every place where power is
TIONARY OR MOTIVE.
Referring to truck wagons, briefly,
the comparisons are as follows:
The cost of hauling freight by the
Universal Motor truck wagon and
the upkeep of same will be a maxi
mum of four cents per ton per mile
under average conditions. The actu-
al fuel consumed will be considerably
under one cent per mile per ton.
while the very best showing made by
any other known power truck up to
this date has been 25 per cent great
er for fuel alone than the fuel used
on the Universal Motor truck, and
under the most favorable conditions
at that. while the cost of upkeep OF
such a truck is far greater than the
upkeep of the Universal Motor truck.
We get to the ground with 6l per
cent of the initial power. which is
gas-engine power, while the very best
that has been done by any so-colled
competitive truck is 40 per cent, And
the straight gasoline and other cleo
trio trucks have run down as low as
22 per cent.

Subsidiary companies are now be-
