The International Gas Company.

Owing to a press of news and advertising last week THE OASIS overlooked mention of the newly organized International Gas Com pany, the Articles of Incorporation for which appeared for the first time. The company is oficered by Mir. Spiro Proto, president and treasurer, H. W. Kelsey, vice presi- dent, and Doctor w. F. Chenoweth, secretary. The new corporation is organized to take over from the purchaser at the recent masters sale of the property, under an order of court, the plant and fran- chise of the Nogales Gas Company, the litigation in regard to which has attracted so much attention during the past year, and to con- duct operation in manufacturing and selling gas and electricity, for heating, lighting and power pur- poses, and obtaining franchises for such enterprises, in both the United States and Mexico. It is to be financed upon a scale which will make it a successful and profitable enterprise.

SAN FELIPE MINE.
Develops Twenty-two Feet of Good Ore at the Depth of One Hundred
 and Fifty Feet.

From Mir. J. L. Sheperd, general manager for the San Felipe Mining Company, who was at Nogales Sun day, THE OASIS learns that in the property of the company, on the Yaqui river, near Realito, the shaft which was started in December, has been sunk to a depth of 150 feet, and at that depth a crosscut was run twenty feet to the ledge Then the ledge was crosscut twenty-two feet, all in good silver ore. From the crosscut a drift is running both north and south, and each face is in good ore of the same character and quality.
 The San Felipe is an antigua property which yielded very rich ores in the early days under Span ish occupation in Mexico, and like so many of the good mines in Sonora was abandoned after the independence of the country, on account of the Indian depredations, withdrawal of the Spanish troops having given the savages a free hand. When Mir. Sheperd &C., quired the property, some eight or nine years ago, the old workings were all in very bad shape, so that it was almost impossible to deter mine their extent and importance Upon the old dumps, among the waste thrown out by the antiguos were found small samples of very rich ore, which convinced Mir. Sheperd that the property was worth development. Upon that faith he organized the San Felipe Mining Company and enlisted in the enterprise capital for it's, deyel- opment. Machinery was shipped early last year, but the revolution ary troubles, Yaqui difficulties and heavy floods washing out the rail.

Mexican Union Railway

The Mexican Union Railway, operating between Torres and Minas Prietas, distance of twenty kilometers, which extended it's line last year to point forty-one kilometers farther toward Ures, is making preparations now to resume construction and complete the line into the city named, which is forty kilometers distant from the present terminus. Ties are being delivered along the line, the rails, angle bars and spikes are provided, and laying track will be resumed very shortly. It is anti cipated that the line will be com pleted by the last of May, and as soon as Ures is reached trains will be run through to that point from Torres.

the Red river valley, the past seven
months, is going to discuss Silos and

them in the reach of our farmers.
1t will certainly be money in every
farmers pocket to hear this subject
discussed. Howard Elliott, president
of the N. p. railway has been invited
to give his noted talk on Relation Of
Railroads to Farmers. Mr.. Elliott has
put into this subject, a life's obser-
walton and experience, and 1t is worth
going miles to hear. Professor Ladd

national authority on pure foods, will
be present an ddiscuss subject that
is of the greatest possible interest, not

Railroad News
nine CARS OF
DEFECTIVE RAIL;
REPRESENTATIVE OF GARY COM
PANY CALLED TO LOOK OVER
THE SITUATION.

/ =.
Minot, N. D., Jan. s.--Nine cars of
broken and defective ninety-poun
rails were brought to this city this
week from points along the Great
Northern between Minot and Devils
Lake which have been taken up from
the track during the past few weeks.
The Great Northern for some time
has realized that there was something
wrong with the new ninety pound rails
which were laid between Minot and
Devils Lake something like year and
half ago and for six weeks the COM
pany has kept track walkers ahead and
after practically every train along the
division.
1t is said that the most defective
rails found in one day have been sew
enty- nine, while in the neighborhood
or 700 have been found in all. Some
OF the rails have been found to be
defective in more than one place. AS
the rails were replaced, the defective
rails were gather in car load lots at
the various stations, so there was car
at nearly every station between Devils
Lake and Minot. There Is always
more trouble with rails in cold wealth
er, because the cold contracts them,
causing them to break il there is any
thing wrong with them. It is not a
very hard matter to break rail once
let 1t become defective. In cutting
them 1t Is only necessary to chisel
around one and bear down on both
ends. In unloading rails the greatest
care is taken. The rails are never
thrown from the cars but are pulled
of gradually without any jar.
This is costing the Great Northern a
great deal of money, for it is said a
rail costs $22.75 at the steel works
and as much more to haul it. The
Great Northern has an excellent road
bed and the best of ties are always
used. 1t is owing to these facts and
to the care which the rails have been
spiked to the ties that there have been
fewer accidents.
1t is reported that within few days
representatives of the Great Northern
and the Gary Steel Works Of Gary
Ind, where the rails were manufactur-
ed, will meet at Minot to investigate
carefully as to the defective rails. The
steel works, is Of the opinion that
the rails have been marked with an
engine of the heavy type, with a de-
fective wheel. Both companies are
anxious to determine just what the Diff
ficulty is. 1t is said that both con-
Germs have had experts along this di-
vision for several weeks and the great
est precautions are being taken.

A SAFER ANEsTHETIc

DR.. Raymond c. Corbuin of New
York, skilled anesthetist and investi-
gator of anesthetics, declares in The
| American Journal of Surgery that nj
| trous oXide-oxygen is, without doubt a
peer as an anesthetic, and urges it's
| adoption by all surgeons in place of
chloroform and ether.
Nitrous oxide is familiar as the
laughing gas" used by dentists, and
nitrous oxide oxygen is combination
of the "gas" and oxygen. DIR. Corbuin
maintains that it is harmless, while
the others are dangerous. ...
THE bette noir of every surgical oper-
alton is the anesthetic," he says. This
view is shared alike by the surgeon, the
| medical man and the layman. / have
never discussed the subject with a
single physician who did not state
frankly that II he were compelled to
submit to the influence of the knife he
would dread the effects of the anes-
thetic more than that Of the operation
itself.
THE use Of nitrous oxide" continues
DR.. Corbuin, "as preliminary to ether.
and the light and unsatisfactory anes-
combined with air, is so we'll under
stood in this city that it makes many
surgeons hesitate to believe that nj
trous oxide-oxygen can be used salts
factorily in major surgery.
But fits practically routine use in
such work in some of the larger hos
pitals of this country and the numer-
Gus demonstrations which / have made
with it in the various hospitals and
sanatoriums in this city, ought to con-
vince the most skeptical that it not
only is practical anesthetic for gem
eral and special surgical purposes, but
that it also is the anesthetic par excel
lence in that large variety and number
Of cases and conditions in which it
is especially indicated, or, In other
words, where ether and chloroform,
either through recent research or long
established usage, are contra indicated"
The writer goes on to state that eth.
er is an irritant to the mucous mem
brane of the respiratory tract and the
kidneys and bladder. When it is given
to patients already suffering from in
fiamation of these tissues it is "add-
ing fuel to the flame" Nitrous oxide
! oxygen is absolutely unirritating to
these tracts, and should be employed
when they are infiamed, no matter
what the operation may be. Post-op-
erative pneumonia, due to the effects
Of nitrous oxide oxygen, is unknown.
There is much less shock and de-
preston" the writer insists, with nj
trous ide-oxygen than with ether or
chloroform. The patient regains con-
sciousness within a minute or two after
the anesthetic is withdrawn, and, be-
ing always less depressed, must conse-
quently recover from the effects of the
operation sooner and better in every
case than when more depressing anes-
thetic agents are used. Moreover, nj
trous oxide-oxygen causes much less
nausea and vomiting than ether, con-
sequently the patient is much more
comfortable after this form of anes-
thesia.
TN diabetes nitrous oxide oxygen is
always strongly indicated, regardless of
the character or length of the opera
ton.
Nitrous oxide-oxygen is much less
toxic per sc than ether or chloroform.'.
