 Justice High was prompted to make the above remarks regarding the ar rest of James Negro, for carrying a revolver. The judge did not argue the case with Negro at all but just gave him a sentence Of s150 or I50 days in jaI. The case of Negro is a particularly fragrant one and the pO- lice and community in general will be glad to know that he Til spend the next five months at Tombstone. He had just come from that city, where, on Monday. he completed a term for beating a woman here. He had con sumed about dozen drinks Tuesday night and was still going strong when he was arrested and the gun found. Negro has the reputation locally of being a bad man and an habitual gun toter

WHO GETS TAX

Sonora Mining Corporation Undecided at End of Meet ing--Await Further Legal Advice-Important

Win. O,Neill, of Douglas, was here yesterday to attesd a meeting of di- rectors of the Cadena de Cobre Min ing Co. The meeting was held prin- cipally for the purpose of discussing the matter Of tax payments on the property in Mexico. The question with this company. as with numerous other land holding corporations in Northern Mexico, is who to pay. All want to keep up their taxes but in view of the situation to the south. perplexing proglem attends getting the money into the right hands,
 Decision was not reached by the Cadena de Cobre people at their meet ing What they did conclude to do was to seek further legal advice. This will probably be forthcoming in a short time and is expected to be Of character that will point the correct manner of procedure for all con cerned in like manner in Mexico.
 The Cadena de Cobre is a valuable property in which several Bisbee pee pie are importantly interested. To re tain it's possession they were obliged to carry on litigation in Mexican courts that was prolonged through a period Cf five years, victory ultimate ly resulting for them. Development work that has been done has extended
 ratification for the fight that va made for the property In consequence the owners. are in no frame of mind to take chances at the present time on losing their property through CT TOT in tax payments.

hams Vegetable Compound improved rapidly and today am a well woman. I cannot tell you how happy feel and I cannot say too much for your Compound. Would not be without it in the house if it cost three times the amount. Mrs. CHAs. CHAPMAN, R. F. D. No. 2, Belle vue, Ohio.
 Because your case Is difficult one, doctors having done you no good, do not continue to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound 2 trial. It surely has remedied many cases of female ills, such as indamma- ton, alteration, displacements, tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, baekache, and it may be exactly what you need.
 The Pinkham record is a proud and peerless one. It is a record of constant victory over the obstinate ills of woman --iils that deal out despair. It is an es- tablished fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's s Vegetable Compound has restored health to thousands of such suffering women. Why don't you try it if ycu need sucn Q ne5icine?

STAR PROPRIETOR IS
 BREWERYS BOOSTER

Main street is on the right track but just a sheet or two behind the wind, declared Proprietor JakoL Schmid of the star theater yesterday. They need the nightly band con oeTts up there and they will be e good thing for the whole town, but they can claim that they are start ing something new or have any of the best of Brewery Gulch. for we started this nightly concert business in Brew cry Gulch two weeks ago and are keep .ng 1t up. That is the Star theater Is keeping it up, for it is strictly Star theater enterprise and we want credi, for it"
 Mir. Schmid in his correction oi previous band statements put II ght, for the Star has been hay. ing the raneisoo l. Maaero band o. nine pieces in B. ewery Gulch nightly for about two weeks. The band is the
 citys Mexican musical organization and furnishes a very good program lt has attracted much attention n Brewery Gulch and draws a crow1 there nightly. The only suggestion that might be extended the band is that it stick to Mexican music, which it renders in high class manner, very pleasing to all hearers. Other com
 positions it attempts are not so vel done, failing to appeal to the spiri,
 of the players.
 The point which Mir Schmid. how ever is that Brewery Gulch leads in attractions for the public. With the new Main street band going, which will be soon, both the citys big thor oughfares will have nightly band con cert programs and the public of the district be assured of pleasure ana
 plenty of life in whichever of the two it may find itself.

POSTAL SAVINGS SHOWING
washington Letter in BROOKLYN
Eagle.)

washington Letter in BROOKLYN
Eagle)
Those who were enthusiastic over
the establishment of the postal saw
ings banks are somewhat disappointed
over the figures. The system has been
in operation now nearly two and d
half years. The total deposits today
are about $35,0OO,00O, not including
about$2, 100000 converted into postal
savings bonds. The depositors num-
Der obout 100000, which shows an
average deposit OF $10O each. These
figures are not up to the expectation
of the promoters of the scheme.
One reason for this fact is held to
be the regulations, which in some re-
spects are exceedingly drastic. Wher-
ever there was a doubtful point, it
was decided in favor of the Govern
ment. The postal savings advocates
declare the regulations should be more
liberal to depositors. For instance,
deposit less than year old, if with
drawn receive no interest whatever.
When the Post Office Department
went into the savings bank business
there was a wide belief that the gen
eral public was losing confidence IN
state and national banks But the re-
suits do not indicate this. On the
contrary, they are interpreted as indi-
eating public faith in responsible
banks. 1t is generally accepted that
most of the money deposited with the
Government has not come out of other
banks, but constitutes new and addi-
tional savings by the people. The
banks get it in the long run, as Gov
eminent deposit, so to that extent they
are really gamers by the institution.
1t is felt by students of the postal
savings system that, if it's regulations
are made more liberal toward deposit
ors, it will show a great jump in pop
ularity, but not otherwise. None the
less, it is a healthy infant and COM
pares very favorably with the history
of such institutions abroad.

SIXTY-FIyE YEARS OF SUCCESS.

This company is purely mutual AMI
