Prehistoric Ruins
 in Cochise County

Frank G. McErsin, who is in the city for a few days from his home about fourteen miles from Cochise Station on the Southern Pacific rail. road. on court business. states that he has discovered q prehistoric village near his ranch, distance of about three miles. He states that from the appearance of the various articles he has found, which he believes to have been used as cooking utensils, they must have been used by race of people many hundred years ago. The discovery was made in digging ditch. Mir. McErwin states that he has un- covered 8 wall, which he estimates to be sbou. twenty feet under the surface Of the ground, and has followed the same for twenty-sevenfe feet, and which he believes to be an ancient ruin. While MT. McErwi and farm hand were engaged m making bare the wall of the ruins, they came across many bones which appeared to be well pre- served, and, in fact, the entire skeleton of one Of the prehistoric race was found intact, but as soon as an attempt was made to remove it the same fell to pieces. MT. McErwin brought to Tombstone with him several small relics from the ruins and from all appearances were used in grinding grain; also arrow heads and stone hammer. He will send them to the Smithsonian Institute, along with description of his find, to ascertain the name of this race people who inhabited this part Arizona during that period. He further stated that ne found 6 slab of rock upon which were inscribed many curious figures of men and animals. It is understood, from MT. McErwin's description oi the find, that during the Spanish rule of this country, and during the time of the reign of Moctezums, way back in the fifteenth century. large monastery was located somewhere in that section, and it is the belief that possibly he has uncovered the ruins of this ancient home of Spanish monks.

Joe Bush" PromuI-
 gates a New Idea

Since Gene Larrieu moved to Tombstone to take up his permanent abode, the city has acquired not only 6 good nstured, jovisl citizen. an ex. pert knight of the cleaver and trench. ant quill driver, but withsl a genuine philosopher.
 Just yesterday Gene advanced a new idea which if universally adopted would perhaps solve 6 most perplexing problem that engages the populace at this season of every year.
 T have just been thinking" said the radiant "Joe Bush," as he exhib- ited a receipted bill which looked suspiciously as if it had been incurred by Santa Claus, "thst the movement inaugurated for a sane and 'noiseless' Fourth of July throughout the land seems to be meeting with the approval of all except the kids. Now" he added confidingly to THE PRosPEcToR reporter, "what would be the matter with proposing, for the benefit of those who had a hard time rustling a turkey this winter, to start 6 similar movement to be known ss the 'toyless, turkeyIess Christmss?' It would cer. tsinly be c money saver," said Gene in parting, as he graciously waited cpon a cash customer.

How New Year
 Was Ushered in

On New Years eve the changing of fire bells, blowing of whistles, shoot ing of pistols and other demonstra- tions of welcome for the coming of the uew year indicated that the aus picious event was duly ushered in by Tomb stoneites per time honored custom.
 The Rescue Hose company dance was brilliant social success and fit- ting finale of the old year, the merry dancers iding to the spirit of welcome to the new year with hearty zest.
 The usual number of New Year resolutions were recorded and each "resolu,er" started at the threshold of the new year with good intentions at least.
 At the Wolcott home novel "backwoods" New year party was had. |. the guests, imbued with the spirit of the occasion, wore costumes which were positively effective enough to cause continual merriment. Many ingenious games were introduced, clever fsvors provided, rustic decors- tions greeted the eye, while refresh. ments were served in full harmony with the occasion, atfording irresist. ible jollifcstion and good cheer. The guests literally "rsng out the old and rang in the new" when 1910 was reached and many antics marked the enjoyable occasion, one long to be pleasantly rembembered by the guests

Statehood Boosters
 Are Still Hopeful

AWashingtonton dispatch says:
 Statehood advocates are anxiously waiting for word from Senator Albert Beveridge of Indiana. They also would pe pleased tohavesn expression from Senator Knute Nelson of Mia nesota upon his attitude toward the admission of Arizon, and New Mexico into the union during this session of congress. Througn the elevecth hour oppoeition of these two members of the senate committee on territories. the only territories remaining were kept out of the un on in the last reg ular session of congress.
 Last winter the chief reason Sens- tor Beveridge arguhd against state hood was that cong cess should wait until the 18th census is taken to sub stantists the claims of the advocates of statehood that the two territories now contain over 50),000 souls. The senator is not unquslitediy against statehood. but insists that congress should take more time in considering the legislation. But the statehood boomers are hopeful that the pressure from the national administration and the early passage of the bill in the l hoose will modify the attitude of the chairman of the senate committee and
 his powerful collsgue, Senator Nelson
 They do not wan. to go into the sen. ate with the determined opposition of Senators Beveside and Nelson Still they will not give up the fight
 even if these senators should refuse te
 withdraw their opposition.
