STALKER REUNION

The tenth annual reunion of the
Stalker family was held at Robert

JUVENILE CRIME
Use of Them May Lead to
the RefOrmatOry
DISTRICT ATTORNEY Nj. Il. SIM
ONS ISSUES WARNING TO
TOBACCONISTS.

There are some of our dealers in
tobacco that ought to be more care
ful in selling cigarettes to children.
l believe that that is one of the
causes that lead the children to COM
NIT crimes"
That is the way District Attorney
M. E. Simons accounted for the wave
of juvenile crimes that has been
sweeping over the Maple City for the
past year, when asked by a Citizen
man for an expression of opinion on
the matter.
There is a penalty attached to it,
and it ought to be enforced" he en-
phatically said.
There are number of criminal
cases on for October term of court,
but l can't tell until the returns are
all in, just how many there will be-
There's the Commonwealth VS..
Joseph Ackerman, and G.. e. Burr,
and Patrick McCann. The charge is
assault and battery, and the alleged
offense was committed at Rock Lake.
There's the Commonwealth
against Dominick Lusiano, that's our
Italian. The charges are selling liq-
uor without license, selling on Sun
days, and selling to minors. The al
legged offenses were committed at
Gouldsboro, Lehigh township.
There's the Commonwealth
against G. w. Swartz, Ariel, charged
with embezzlement.
Then there's the Commonwealth
against Frank Bregar, the name is
spelt several ways, charged with as
sault and battery The offense is al
legged to have been committed at
Brownville, Clinton township.
There's the Commonwealth VS..
Joe Skubitz, another name spelt sew
eral different ways. He is charged
with pointing a gun at the prosecu-
tor and making threats at Brown
vile.
g That's all we have now. It's
hard to tell just now how many
cases We'll have. The practice among
some of our justices is to keep their
transcripts until just before the
grand jury, instead of sending them
in, as they should, right away.
There's only two prisoners in the
county Jail, Dominick Lusiano and
Hartman serving term. That's all.
" There will probably be as much
business at October term as usual.
The last term was very light.
There are very few civil cases
listed for trial. The attorneys didn't
seen anxious to place civil cases on
trial There's only four civil cases
placed on trial. There is no danger
of dispensing with Court. Well have
court in October"
The civil cases listed for trial at
October term are: Cole VS.. Cole,
Admx. assumpsit, Lee plf., Kimble,
deft., Walentynowicz VS.. Allen ct al,
trespass, Searle and Salmon, plf.;
Mumford, diff; Klansner VS.. De

LAMPASAS SILVER MINE
 PROMISING PROPERTY

The Lampasas Silver Mine com pany, whose property is located near Moctezuma, Sonora, will be in active operation within six months. it is de clared by a stockholdeT in that prom ising mine This program was agreed upon in the last several weeks.
 A. W. Utzman, of Fremont, Ohio. who came to the southwest to inspect the property on behalf of a number of eastern capitalists, left yesterday fos his home having made a trip to the Lampasas mine. It is said he was so pleased with the prospects for the mine that he purchased a very large block of stock for the capitalists whom he represented.
 A tunnnel and shaft on the pros pect has upturned an amount and quality of ore that gives good indr cations that the property will be a producer. The ore that has been taken from the mines yields largely silver. but also contains some gold and lead. 1t is said that the South ern Pacific of Mexico is contemplat ing constructing an extension of it's road into MOetezuma and Guaymas and that the line will run within ter miles of this mine.

GRANDMOTHERS
 USED SAGE TEA
To Oarken the Hair and Re- store Gray and Faded Hair
 tC lis Natural Color

It is easier to preserve the color Of the hair than to restore 1t. although it is possible to do both. Our grand mothers understood the secret. They made a sage tea" and their dark. glossy hair long after middle life was due 10 this fact. Our mothers have gray hairs before they are fifty, but they are beginning to appreciate the wisdom of our grandmothers in using sage tea" for their hair and are fast following suit
 The present generation has the ad vantage of the past in that it can get a ready-tO-use preparation called wy eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy. As a scalp tonic and color restorer this preparation is vastly superior to the ordinary sage tea" made by our erandmothers.
 This remedy is scld under suaran- tee mat the money will be refunded Y it fails to do exactly as represented
 If your hair Is losing color or com ing out. start using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur today. and see what change it win make in a few days time.
 This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle. and is recommended and sold by all drug sists. zzi-

BEAN CROP EATEN
 BY GRASSOPPERS

Grasshoppers destroyed an en. tire crop of beans for NJ. M. King on his ranch six miles northwest of Douglas this summer These pests were what is known as army grass hoppers. because of their peculiar color. resembling soldiers uni form.
 MT King planted nine acres Tn beans early in the season and soon they were all up and doing nicely. giving promise Of an excellent crop. When they were some eight inches high. millions of these grasshoppers appeared and completely destroyed the young crop Mir King declaring yesterday that he did not expect 10 get one hundred pounds from the nine acres.
 Besides this crop of beans Mir King has about sixty acres of sor- ghum hay that will yield a fair crop, but not as good as the one he pro- duced last year, as the summer sea- son was not so favorable. How ever. he will be able to market a good hay crop this year and he win start cutting it next week.
 Mr King was formerly a resident of Douglas and served for a time as street commissioner and after wards as policeman. Three years ago he secured an excellent piece of land as a homestead and moved on to it and since then has made many improvements Last year he had a very heavy crop. which was pro duced at a good profit.
 Had it not been for the grass hopper pest this year he would have made good money on his crop of beans.

AN INTERNATIONAL
 AFFAIR AT DOUGLAS

The result of a battle royal be- tween some American and Mexican boys ended in the police court at Douglas yesterday morning Ac- cording to the story of the boys, the fight has been brewing for some time, and ample preparations for a big war were made on both sides.
 The Mexican boys molested the American boys in a ball game yes terday afternoon and the battle started. For some time the air was filled with flying stones and pebbles thrown with sling-shots by both sides. and on account of police in- reference the battle came to an end suddenly and before anyone re- ceivkd injuries About forty young warriors were taken before his honor.
 After hearing their story and se- verely reprimanding them, the judge discharged them all, but warn ed them not to engage in war any more, and not to use sling-shots.
 The sling-shots are becoming a nuisance as well as an object cf danger and the city authorities are determined to stop their use.

Since the stork brought a little girl 10 family living in the Bronx the heir. who had attained 10 four years of dignity before the sister came. has had his nose very much out Of joint His mother. in fact. found trouble at times in keeping him from poking out the eyes of the intruder and other wise exhibiting the innate cruelty Of the boy-child.

 Iet at times the feeling of depriva ton of oldtime attention will come to the surface. Then the boy will take himself 10 the darkest corner 10 be found in the flat. push himself closely up against the wall and begin to whimper in low tones. Soon the whimper. like the musical patrol. grad ually becomes more apparent Then from out of the darkness comes the low plaint:
 -Muvver don't like me"
 There is a cessation Of the whimpeT for a moment; then it begins ou a more emphatic scale and again comes in louder tones:
 "Muyyer don't like me"
 From this the protest goes into sob ping. and finally it comes 10 a climax in most heart-breaking tones:
 "Muvver don't like me"
 This IS the time for the head Of the household 10 intervene. for she has learned by experience that whatever she might say before the psychological moment is ignored. In the softest tones she answers:
 Yes. dearie. mother does like you She loves you with all her heart"
 From out of the darkness comes in a great. indignant cry:

 Despairing sobbing follows. but it goes down as the musical patrol dies away. and finally very penitent little boy comes out of the corner and plucks at his mothers skirt. looking : for attention,

PROFITABLE SESSION
 OF ARIZONA BANKERS
Return of Mr. BuckwaIter from the Association Conven-
 ton at Prescott

r. M. Baekwalter, cashier of the Miners and Merchants bank. returned yesterday morning from Prescott. where he attended the convention c the Arizona Bankers association as delegate from Bisbee. He was the only Bisbee banker to attend the con Yention- After the adjourning of the convention, Mr. Buckwalter visited the Grand Canyon and Phoenix.
 Mir. Buckwalter was honored by the convention in being named a member of the executive board, which, among other things, will name the place or meeting Of the next convention. Ee will serve three year term in that position.
 The board win meet at an ,e2ly date 10 decide upon the next meet, ing place Of the national convention. lt is understood that Douglas is mak- ing a bid for the convention, and it may go to that city The plan Of having Phoenix as the next meeting place of the convention every year has been discussed. but it did moi come mp at the last meeting of the association. so some other city may have the opportunity of entertaining the miliionaires. Phoenix is favored by some because 1t is a centrally To- cated e.ty and easy of access to bankers all over the territory.
 Bankers were present from all parts Of the territory, said Mir Buck. walter yesterday. and many from out side the territory. half a dozen from Fl Paso and as many from California points, were present. The banke1s were royalty entertained by the Mile High city and the convention proved an outing as well as a profit to the bankers.
 Prescott has an air of prosperity" ssai Mir. Buckwalter, that is dificult for the casual visitor to trace 10 its source. Its banks have. believe, about three millions of deposits, which is quite a remarkable showing for town of that size 4 little ,n- vestigation. however. will show where the towns prosperity is due to the fact that it is the distributing point for a territory for miles around it.'
 Mir. Buckwalter was handed some thing while in Phoenix. A friend did it. The thing was a lemon weigh ing a pound and a half. It is not really a lemon. but it had a lemon for a father-or mother. as the case may be. The fruit is the result of an experiment being conducted by a friend of Mir. Buckwalter at Phoenix, by grating a lemon trace to grape , fruit tree. It retains the shape of the lemon. but he has not yet tried 1t to see if it takes after the lemon or grape fruit in taste.

HE WAS AGENT
 FOR NOTABLES

Tomas Rico, the man who was ar rested in Agua Prieta on Thursday night and held in custody until yes terday afternoon, was released on a telegram from Governor Maytorena, sent from Hermosillo, and Rico left this morning in answer to another telegram from the governor calling him for a conference.
 The cause given for the arrest of Rico in Agua Prieta was simply that he was a suspicious character. The fact is that Rico visited Agua Prieta for the purpose of carrying out a commission for the governor of So- nora, according to his statement this morning. He exhibited the telegram from Governor Maytorena, calling him to Hermosillo. and also one from Madero's secretary calling him to the City of Mexico this month to see the newly-elected president So 1t would seem that the suspicious ness of Rico was the fact that he is acting as the confidential agent Of the higherups in the government of Mexico.
 Rico stated this morning that there was no foundation for the re- port that he was a follower of Gen. Reyes or anyone else other than Francisco l. Madero and the newly established government in Mexico. After seeing Governor Maytorena at Hermosillo, Rico expects to proceed to the City of Mexico.
