In fact one exper- fenced traveller, and former rail- road man, states that the Mexican By, has recently changed their sleeping car service, in order to get rid of the Mexican employees. At any rate that is the result of talk ing over the operation of the sleep ing car service, as foreign conduc tors and porters are being employ ed. The $. P. Company and Pull man Company have had their at tention called to the articles and took measures at once to remedy the individual faults, and, in this connection, 1 may say that these companies are always ready and willing to remedy any cause for complaints that may be made to them. 1 also desire to make it clear that 1 did not wish to cast any reflection on the local officials who have the handling of these employees, as know they are doing their best to have the service up to standard, but isolated cases, like those referred to, will occur in spite of all endavors."

Mr. Hannah is a young man who has grown from childhood in NOgales, and has been connected with the U. $. customs service number of years, having advanced through several grades to the important and responsible post of cashier. It was while the young lady resided in NOgales that there was cemented a friend ship which has now ripened in the high and holy relation the young couple have assumed.

MUSCRAvE AGAIN
Convicted ot Felony. This Time h
 New Mexico.

The El Paso Times of last Satur- day had the following special tele- gram:
 Roswell, N. M. Dec. l5.-Vollie Mus grave was found guilty of stealing two mares from Breeb Hurt, of Dexter, by the trial jury in district court last, night. Musgrave was indicted ill five counts by the recent grand jury and this was the first of the cases to come to trial. He is charged with COW and horse stealing. Vollie is from Arizona and is a brother of George Musgrave, who was tried and acquitted here last spring of the charge of murder for killing George Parker, fellow cowboy, near Roswell l4 years ago. It will be remembered that George Musgrave was long said to be the only surviving member of the famous Black Jack Gang, of New Mex leo. This Musgrave denied when he was finally captured and brought to trial, l3 years after the killing, which he explained as an act of self defense. George Musgrave has been in the cattle buying and selling business here since he was brought back for trial last Jan uary, but has now left Vollie Mus grave is remembered as a promoter here and at Albuquerque of wild west shows during the past summer.
 The man convicted at Roswell is known we'll in Santa Cruz county, and at the October term of court, 1908, he was convicted of the crime of assault with intent to commit rape. He was sentenced to eight years in the Arizona penitentiary; btt through the exertion of some sort of influence he was paroled at the end of eight months after reaching the penitentiary. The foregoing shows that he has broken his parole.
 At the same term of court Mus. grave was indicted for fraud. When he was convicted and sentenced upon the first indictment the case wherein he had been indicted for fraud was continued indefinitely. So when he gets through his term in New Mexico, should he return to Arizona, he can be imprisoned for breaking his parole, and tried also on the other indictment.

The Pullman Service.
To THE OASIS:

"The recent article in this paper regarding Pullman service on the West Coast route, has brought forth considerable comment from many travellers, who inform me that the criticisms are too severe and gen. eral, in their reference to all em- ployes. It is we'll known that certain prejudice exists against the Mexican employees. and when this is openly displayed they resent it, as they have a racial pride that flares up when spoken to in a man. ner the least offensive. This pro- bably accounts for some of the dis courtesy displayed.
 Many of my writers say that the Mexican employees they have travelled with have been as polite, courteous and attentive as could be desired. It is a noticeable fact that the moral tone of the Mexican em- ployes is superior to their prede- cessors on the Pullman cars, and taking everything into considera- tion, their good points and faults will average up very we'll with similar class of employees in the States, and I am informed that the Tucson Mexican employees on the West Coast route are superior in intelligence and attention to their

Nina Mexico.

MT. w. E. Pomeroy, general manager for La Compania Nina dc Mexico, which took over from the estate of the late Carmen Ortega, the Nina Mexico, near Bacanora, in the Sahuaripa district of Sonora, was at Nogales Tuesday morning, en route to Ell Paso for the holi- days, with his family, who make their home there.
 Mir. Pomeroy informed THE OASIS that all the machinery for the 75- ton blast furnace is now on the ground, and he anticipates having it ready to blow by the first of February, if not earlier. The power will be supplied by 125. K. w. electric generator, driven by a 125 H. P steam turbine engine, and the plant will be one of the most complete and modern install latiOns anywhere.
 The telephone line connecting the camp with Tonichi, the term mus of the Southern Pacific rail- way, on the Yaqui river, had but three miles to build when Mir. Pomeroy came through, and he anticipated its completion by to- day, putting the camp in close touch with the outside world.
 The main shaft, which is now at a depth of 750 feet. is still sinking, and the company intends carrying it down to depth of 1000 feet, and even farther. At the depth now attained the ore body is larger and richer than ever, yielding rock that carries 200 ounces in silver per ton and a large per centage in lead. The product of the furnace will be a high grade lead matte.
 The operations of the company are giving a great deal of move ment over in the Yaqui river re- zion. It has 400 pack animals employed in the transportation of supplies and machinery from To- nichi to the camp, about thirty miles in a northwesterly direction.

SANTA CRUZ COUNTY.
4 Bunch of Interesting Items From
 Various Points Throughout.

DeVelOpmenL continues on the Buffalo group, the Red Men group and several other promising prop critics in The Basin, near Harshaw, as presented in these columns, and that camp is one of the active places in Santa Cruz county.
 Mark Lulley is at the Wander ing Jew camp, in the Santa Rita mountains, doing additional work on the Jew and NJ. < s. groups of mines. He had done already the assessment work, but is putting in lot more for good measure.
 Messrs. George B. Marsh and Louis Lulley of Nogales have com menced extensive development of their IL group of mines in the San ta Rita mountains, in the vicinity of the Alto and Wandering Jew camps-lying between the two. These properties make fine show ing and 1t is anticipated their de. velopment will add greatly to the importance of the Tyandall district.
 Mir. I. G. King has sold to the Havalena Mining Company his Royal Iron mining claim, in the Patagonia district. This claim lies between and connects two groups of claims the Havalena Company owns, and is directly in line with the tunnel that is running for their development. The tunnel has cut through the country rock and is now in the big ledge it was run to intersect, and punches of ore are coming in the ledge matter.
 The affairs of the Queen Bess Copper Company, at Mowry seem to have become tangled almost at their very inception. In August last a party of Kansas City people, three of the gentlemen being direct ors in the corporation which took over the property, visited the camp and expressed themselves as well satisfied. At that time 1t was an- nounced that ample funds had been pledged for development, and with considerable enthusiasm work was begun upon triple compartment shaft which was to be sunk to a depth of 500 feet as rapidly as men and money and machinery could do the work, Then they all re. turned to the East, leaving Mir. Fred Miller to do the work. But in little while the money and supplies in hand were exhausted and there came nothing more Mir Miller failed also to receive the purchase price of property he had sold to the promoter of the com pany-Mr. s. F. Johnson-And the company had taken it over. He went to Kansas City and inter- viewed the board of directors. The result was that last week two of the directors-Messrs. J. E. Ritzler and Vernon Ross visited Santa Cruz county, and they had hardly set foot in the county when they were served the papers in mum Der of suits against tLe company. The gentlemen visited the camp, called on the creditors and looked over the ground, after which they returned home, very reticent as to their intentions. For the difficult ties in which the company is placed they blame MT. Johnson, who is the president and general manager of the company, as we'll as the promoter.

Good Breeding Places.

1t is not, he says, nice idea to feel
that the mosquitoes annoying you are
sewer bred, but investigation and ex-
pertinent have shown that this is the
case. The catch basins Of the street
sewers always hold a certain amount
Of stagnant water and when in the dry
season the top level of this falls below the
entrance to the sewer it Is stagnant and
would for an excellent breeding place
If it were not attended to.
The superintendent of sewers. A. E..
Phillips, said today that he had con-
sidered the possibility Of the street sewers
acting as mosquito breeding places and
that he had been flushing out the traps
at intervals of ten days So that they
were kept clear oftener than the limit
within which mosquito broods develop.
He said that he was going to make the
flushing every five days, however, and
that this would be started right away.
There is a different type of sewer trap
from the one now in use in Washington
in which the water does not stand at
all. When DR.. John B. Smith, who
gained fame by his anti-mosauto work
In the Hackensack meadows outside
Of Newark and Jersey City, was here last
year he commented on the type o. sewer
traps that were in use here and suggested
that the use Of the dry type would be an
improvement. Mr. Phillips says that in
the extension work to be done in Wash
ington the new type of traps are to be
used.

Back Yards Traps.

Eliminating the street sewers as the
cause of mosquito breeding still leaves
the backyard traps, and DR.. Howard said
that it had been proved that mosquitoes
did breed there. These traps are familiar
to every one. They are covered with
little perforated iron cover and take the
surface drainage from the yard. They are
so arranged inside that there is basin
to catch the sand and refuse and at the
same time the drainage water stands
there, acting as a seal to the pipe against
sewer gas. This water is disturbed only
when the pipe is flushed. Ordinary use
may or may not clear it. Observation
has shown that the mosquitoes do breed
in these traps in Washington, and when
extensive mosquito work was done in
Brookline. Mass, in 3O1 and 1902 about
LOCO of these yard traps were inspected
and the mosauiotoes were found breeding
in them freely. After that they were
treated occasionally with kerosene and
the nuisance abeted.
Bad in Closed Yards.
1t was pointed out however, that the
trouble in Washington was worse where
most inaccessible. There are great
| many places in the northwest where
families go away for the summer and
then the unused sewer trap in the back
yard becomes an undisturbed breeding
place.
The worst Of it is from the viewpoint
of the neighbors that the houses where
the people have to stay at home may
all be infected by the mosquitoes bred
on the premises Of the luckier families
able to get away
The Department Of Agriculture intends,
however. to take up the matter with DR..
Woodward, the health officer. and see
whether the health Office inspectors have
not legal right to enter such yards and
treat the drain pipes with kerosene. 1t
has not been definitely proven SO far that
the notwithstanding mosquito breeds in
these backyard traps, but all the indica-
tons are that he does, and IL this is the
case the matter will come within the
scope Of the health Office regulations.
The fact remains, however, that a great
deal can be done by the householders re-
naming in town if they will spill a cup
full Of kerosene a week into their back
yard sewer traps. And II man has a
house vacant for the summer on each side
from the backyard drains the probabili-
ties are that If he slipped over the back
fence and dashed cupful of coal oil into
the trap that he would not be arrested for
burglary.
Connected With Infant Paralysisp
A subject that has been discussed by the
medical society and by the officials of the
Department Of Agriculture is whether or
not the mosquitoes have not some con-
nection with the present epidemic Of in
FAINT paralysis. The germ Of this disease
has not yet been found. but this is true of
yellow fever, which II Is now known Is
carried by a certain breed of mosquitoes
and conveyed i'm that way only. No ex-
tensive experiments have yet been made
in connection with infant paralysis. but

SIMPLE STYLE FOR HATPIN
Utility More Than Ornament is the
Idea in This Millinery
Accessory.

Nowadays the hatpin is an fmpor-
tant millinery accessory. and cleverly
combines beauty with utility in an al
most unfeminine way.
So important is this little ornament
that the only trimming on a large
shape will be jeweled disks that are
very satisfying to the woman who aims
at elegant simplicity.
Besides the huge round forms there
are long cylindrical pins studded with
Jewels; there are conventional forms
that hint of the orient in their color
ing; there are pins that offer sugges-
tions of home manufacture. for bro
cade, tapestry and linen are the ma
terials used One little shop in Paris
has shown pins with tops of straw or
raffia, woven to match the hats with
which these novelties are to be worn.
In another milliner's, lace flowers
are used to cover the Dresden silk
cushion, These are extremely pretty
with the tulle turbans and large lace
trimmed straws.
The Frenchwoman insists upon hat
pin sets that are kept with their re-
spective shapes, and on no occasion
will the disks be used to fasten the
wrong hat on her head. 1t is just one
more evidence of her attention to the
little details that combine to create a
harmonious whole.
