OLD TIMERS LEAVE
CANANEA FOR FARMS
lsnecial 70 Review


CANANEA March 1S.-Lighting
seldom strikes an object in Cananea
until the days Of the rainy season ar
rive; but. for once. all traditional laws
of the elements have been overturned
and a hot has descended from a March
sky. After a lapse OF all the years
Cananea counts as her active age,
Bin Zent has decided to leave. Bill
hauled in coke from Naco in the old
roadway, busting. growing days; and,
when the rails were laid from that
point. he teamed ore from the Elisa
and other outlying camps until the
narrow gauge railroad eliminated all
work of its kind. The firm OF William
Zens & Son is q landmark that Will
linsen in Cananea for a long, long
time. He has purchased farm near
Tucson and disposed OF his transfer
business here. The farm is a splen-
did one, and with the energy its new
owner has. win no doubt enrich him
and blot out every regret that might
arise from leaving the place that has
been his home SO long
Fe1owing closely on tents depart
ure, comes that of Ed Bass, who has
bought a farm in the same locality.
Bass has been here also since the
eariy days. having operated a hack
line continuously since the railroad
came. There will be two well &C
quainted farmers over near the Old
Pueblo when these Cananeans begin
to ill the soil.
Miss Julia Santa Cruz has entered
the $4,000 contest that the Kelly pa
pers have opened and is not to be
satisfied with anything under the REQ
Auto that is offered. She has enlist
ed all her numerous friends in her
behalf and will be somewhere around
the top of the list when the final count
is made.
A r. Moehlinkamp received a mes
sage from his old home in st. Charles,
No. stating that his father was dead
and left at once for that place. II
is expected that he win be away over
two weeks.
Congratulations are being received
by Mr. and Mrs. Joe Benson over the
arrival OF a baby girl.
The new framing shed on the west
Stag dump is finished and was put in
Ope don yesterday morning
Ar electric hoist is being installed
at the Oversight No. IL shaft.
B. c. Brooks. employed in the gen
eraI managers office for the past
three years. has resigned. He viii
leave for Mexico City Monday, but vii
not accept permanent employment fol
a while as he is seeking much need
ed rest. IL is probable that he vii
return to Cananea next fall.
Bill Goodman is expected to arrive
on teday's train. Bill writes tha
when he left here last November he
made a promise TO return this year
and that all the managerial oderi
Bisbee could have made would no
have induced him to break his word
As he was the property of the loca
club from a logical view since las
year and has been considered a fixtur'
on the team right along, il looks a
if Bisbee was doing the grab act whel
she sought 10 lure him away.
Bert Whaling wrote TO Bisbee for
berth contemporaneously wit ha lette
TO the local manager. He received
ticket as an answer from the las
named letter and did not hear iron
Bisbee until the ticket came. Cans
nea is not after any men that Bisbe
desires and is gathering her team fror
old players-but one new face thj
year. Our team will be strong an
without any stolen members on it.
