of robbery at the Tigre mine | Lucky Tiger) over in the big bend of the Bavispe river, beyond Yza-
 bal station on the Nacozari rail-
 way. Taking advantage of the
 fact that high grade ore was being
 packed from the camp to the rail-
 way station they boldly rode into
 the camp with a pack train and
 were permitted to pack out full
 loads of rich rock, aggregatlng some $10,000 in value, the mine employees and officials thinking them a part of the outfit employed by the contractors for the packing. Later the trick was discovered, the thieves were overtaken and lodged in jail at Nacozari and the ore re- covered.

Some days as much as $50 gold values is taken out with one rocker while other days the ground will run very low.

The property has already considerable development, and with vigorous prosecution of work, now assured, it is destined to advance speedily from the stage of very promising prospect to that of very valuable and productive mine. It makes one of the best showings in that part of the country, with which THE OASIS editor is quite familiar, having visited the region a num- Der of times; and the prediction is here ventured that the Eloisa will prove a very valuable property. Twenty-Five men are now employed, sinking two shafts and drifting upon 4 foot vein, carrying good values in gold and silver-the lat ter predominating.

Laurens village was one time over
stocked with mutton.
Before the war, my brother in law
raised nice flock of sheep They got
troublesome. no ten rail fence would
turn them, they got so destructive on
the crops he determined to see them.
On visit to Laurens he consulted his
brother who WAS railroad agent at
the old brick depot Yes. YOU can
sell all the mutton YOU send to town.
We went home, drove up the sheep in
the lot, and put the negroes to killing
and sSining them, Next morning he
loaded up twenty head on the four
horse wagon aud sent them down to
laurcns ,or his other John to- sell.
lie sold three and half sheep and
sent the others back to his brother
James, who. with his wife and child
ren ale them until they were tired
out with the smell of mutton.
He then tried the negroes on them.
They soon refused to eat the meat.
Finally he told a white tenant he might
have the remainder of the mutton. il
he would take it out of his smoke
house
He never tried Laurcns again as a
sheep market.

NEW YORK CITY IS
DEATH TO PASTORS
DR.. Carter Says Hard Work Makes
of City Clerical Graveyard
No Aid From Flocks.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1J.-With the
declaration that New York CITY is a
graveyard for ministers, Rev. DR.. vii
liam Carter. pastor of the Madison
Avenue Reform church. Madison-ave.
and Fifty -seventh-st. in sermon Civ
ing the pastors point OF view, said
that the reason why pastors break
down in their work and three prom
inent Fifth-ave. pulpits are vacant is
that there Is no cooperation and sym
patty on the part OF New York con
gregation for the pastor, who has to
do his work alone.
THAT New York City is a grave
yard for ministers is proved fact,
said DR.. Carter After two years
work | had to go abroad for years
rest, suffering from a nervous break
down. | met three other New York
pastors abroad for the same reason
and for the same length of time. one
died TWO days after his return, and
now recently another sudden death
has left a prominent pulpit vacant
Another pastor. discouraged and in
despair over his work. could not con-
tinue longer and resigned. Some
years ago prominent minister,
abroad for the same reason that
went. took his life while suffering
from melancholia, brought on by the
same strain and stress of his work.
When 1t is realized that three OF
the prominenet Fifth-ave. churches,
paying the largest salaries, are with
out pastors and have extended call
after call to have them refused. it
proves that ministers are avoiding
rather than seeking New York
churches.
Some residents of New York have
an idea that the salaries paid the
ministers here would prove attractive,
not realizing. first OF all. that min
listers are not in the ministry for the
money they make out of il and all
could make much more money With
their ability in some other profession
or in n business line, and, secondly,
not realizing that because of the cost
OF living with the larger social posi-
ton that must be maintained, sal
than elsewhere.
Ministers here are compelled to
bear the whole burden alone, instead
OF having the sympathy. the support
and the hearty cooperation of the
congregation. church calls pas
tor and then complacently sits back
in the pews and says in effect:
We've called you; we're paying your
salary; now go ahead and do the
work
