More About That Chinese
Smuggling.

There was a sensational arrest In
Deming last Saturday, when E. S.
Clark, a Southern Pacific conductor,
was taken In by a deputy United
States marshal. Clark was the con-
ductor in charge Of No. l. the Cali
fornian, and as usual, registered at
the Deming depot. A couple Of
strangers were standing by, one
looking over Clark's shoulder as he
was writing his name. The stranger
asked him II he was +. s. Clark,
and Clark told him he was. The
stranger nodded to the other stran-
ger, who produced a warrant and
arrested Clark for smuggling Chi
nese in from Mexico. The first
man was a secret service man, and
he then turned to Conductor Geo.
Sullivan, who was deadheading on
the train, and told him he could take
charge of the train. Il seems that
the secret service men wanted to
arrest Clark in New Mexico and
save the trouble of extraditing him,
but did not want TO leave the rail-
road company in the lurch, and so
made arrangements with the COM
pany to have an extra conductor on
the train to take charge of it. The
same day in Deming, N. W. Shine,
who was acting as a conductor on a
freight train, was arrested on the
same charge. II is claimed that
last October some Cinnamon were
smuggled through on a freight train
on which Clark was the conductor
and Shine was the brakeman. Mr.
Shine has lived in Lordsburg many
years and has an interesting family
here, and his many friends gave
him credit for having too mucf
sense to get mixed up in a Chines'
smuggling case. The government
Is watching this matter too close
for railroader to take any chances
in it. Furthermore, his most init
mate friends, among whom Is thu
writer, do not believe he would take
! a hand in smuggling, under any con
: Lsideration. Some of his friend
: here guaranteed his bond and i
: was made by Deming capitalists II
+ the sum Of $4,000. It is reporte'
that the alleged smuggling was dom
: on the llth Of October, and tina
, Mr.. Shine did not go to work, afte
A his vacation, until the 18th Of 0cto

KEEP THE GOOD
WORK GOING ON
Another Mining Company
Organized By a Bunch of
Deming Men
A. SHULTZ, MANAGER
Will Develop the Shultz
Mines in the Tres Her
mana Mountains.
A. SHULTZ, MANAGER

The citizens of Deming and Of
southwestern New Mexico may re-
memember the excitement caused
by the great copper strike made by
Albert Schultz in April of 1907, and
the great rush of people to Mr..
Schultz's mines which are located in
the Tres Hermana mountains,
1t is well known that Mr.. Shultz
has been offered, from time to time,
considerable sums Of money for his
property, one party offering $780,
10000. All these offers have been
refused. Mr.. Shultz has been quiet
ly at work developing his mine. He
has one shaft sunk to a depth Of
over seventy feet. At this depth
very high grade copper ore has
been found, and at this depth he
decided to drift and find the extent
of the ore-body. After drifting and
prosecuting the lead for distance
of about forty feet and finding he
was still in ore, he decided to sink
deep enough to get stopping ground,
however, heshad gone only a few
feet when he encountered water
which ran stronger than one per
cent. copper, and not having pump
ing facilities to keep the shaft dry,
he was compelled to stop further
development of the property.
After consulting with his friends
and figuring on the amount OF
money necessary to develop the
mine, he decided he could not do il
alone.
Mr.. Schultz has formed corpor-
alton under the laws of New Mexico
known as the Copper City Mining
Company. The officers Of the com.
pany are composed of Deming bust
ness men, as follows:
DIRECTORS:
N. A. Bolick, President.
Christian Raithel, Vice President.
c. J. Kelly, Secretary and Treas.
Albert Schultz, General Manager.
j. A. Mahoney, Director.
The above named gentlemen have
caused to be spread on the minutes
of the first directors meeting, tina
there shall be no salaried officers il
the company until the property il
on a paying basis, and that ever!
dollar subscribed stock shall be ex
pended for developing the property
and on these conditions only, woult
they serve as directors.
The directors and managing off
; GERS of the company are sufhcien
guarantee for any one wishing b
invest, that this is not a tock-jobbinl
proposition. 1t is needless here +
, go into the merits of this propert

! and by mining men from othe
mining districts. and all pronounc
it to be equal to any of the big COZ

section can bestow upon it.

FINE PRIZE GRAFTON
On Mistakes" Delivered by
Margaret Rosch at the
Deming High School Ora
torical Contest.

Mistakes. We all make them.
Acting on impulse, prompted by
prejudice, hurried along by the
high tide Of life which leaves little
time for weighing the import of
each little deed, we are all of the
while doing things which at the
time appear trivial, but with the
passage Of time stand out in bold
relief among our important doings.
Happy are we If these potential
deeds have been we'll and wisely
considered. The responsibility is
upon life's actor, the results for
good or evil may rest upon countless
thousands.
Eden was marred by the disobe-
dience Of Eve and a heritage of
weakness still flows to her frail
children who people this old world
Of ours.
Turn the pages Of history and
view the mistakes of many of the
leaders of the world.
The records of France are marred
with the portrayals of the horrors
of the French revolution. The
question at once arises: Why this
awful slaughter? Lo! the answer
the mistaken ideals created by one
of her great leaders Voltaire. A
imam who denied the existence of 9
Supreme Being, nature and society
were his gods. 1t was the writings
and teachings Of this man more thar
any other that moulded the charac
ter Of the French people at thai
time.

blotted by Napoleon, the Man o.
Destiny" who marched into Russii
expecting to win one of his accus
toned brilliant victories and crusl
them with his enormous army, bu
he make a goat mistake in not reck
oning with his host. On and ol
went Napoleon, deeper and deepe
into that desolate land, only to flint
the Russians keeping constantly be
yond his reach. Desertion, lines
and death began their fatal worl
and thus Napoleon's plan of cam
paign proved a total failure.
In the list of battles fought dur

stands out not to be forgotten b.
! the whole world Balaklava il
which occurred that mad but heroi
charge Of the Light Brigade. VIII
this mad charge? Because someon
