Sellers is president of the Ocean-to Ocean High way Association, which has been boost ing the southern route the past several years, but we believe that trip across this part of the country will convince him of the error of his way and bring him around to be booster for the Santa Fe Grand Canyon Needles National Highway. The northern route would benefit Albuquerque far more than would the route to the south of that c'ty. as Fl Paso would finally divert all travel on through Texas and not through the Rio Grande valley to the Duke City.

 Fifteen prisoners were taken to Prescott by deputy Marshal Price and two assistants last Monday. These n en were held on charges of selling booze to Indians. While at Ash Fork two of the men got away, but their absence was not observed until the delegation was unloaded at Prescott. l During the past two months nOre bootlegging has been carried on in Kingman than for many years, which denotes prosperous times among the Indians. It takes money to buy booze and none can be obtained unless the Indians come through with the deniro While the general laws of the United States make it a crime to sell liquor to the Indian it fails to make the Indian party to the prosecution. Was the Indian prosecuted for soliciting booze It would soon do away with the boot | logging business. Since the latter part of March there have been more than twenty cases before the Com mis- sioner in nearly all of which the de- fendant was held to answer.

Trust Companies Show Big
Growth

Copies of the twelfth edition Of
Trust Companies of the United
States" an annual publication which
is compiled and published by the United
States Mortgage & Trust Company,
New York, have been distributed among
the Trust Companies Of this city
me information contained therein is
particularly timely in view of discus
sions during the past year at various
State Ranking Associations and at the
recent convention Of the American
Bankers Association.
According to a table in the book,
showing a reorganization of resources
and liabilities of Trust COMPANIES BY
States, Texas is reported as holding
$1!,409,sSl in banking resources. OF
this, 10 percent, or more than $1,000
10000, is held by FL Paso, among five
institutions headed by Rio Grande VAL
ley Bank q Trust Company, with re-
sources of over three million dollars.
AS indicating the growth of Trust
Companies, the total resources reported
June both, 1903, were S3,917,442. 900. and
on June SOth, 1914, the total resources
Of those Companies reDortinr- were
S5,924, $4,000, which is more than one
half Of the combined resources of Sill
49,, 10000 reported by the National
Banks Of the United States on June
5Oth, 1914. In the Preface it is stated:
The substantial increase of nearly
Four Hundred and Fifty Million Doi-
lars, shown in Trust ComDaDv re-
sources, as compared with the figures
Of year ago, together with the Larger
number of Companies recorded. is an
impressive reminder that the scope of
useful activity occupied BY these insti-
tutions is continually broadening and
charging.
Considerable attention has been
given by banking associations and
legislative bodies during the past year
to revision of the various State laws
governing the operation of financial
institutions within their respective ju-
risdiotions. This in turn has led to
more general recognition Of fbe desira-
biiity OF bringing Trust Company Iegis-
lalon' SO far as might be found eXpe-
dent and practicable. into line with
the me- laws now governing those institu-
tions whose operations are subject to
the provisions of the Federal Reserve
act BY , this means it is hoped that
that greater degree of barmonv ana
more EFFECTIVE concert of action De-
tween State and National institutions
so necessary to the advancement of
pot 2oth and do to the fullest development of
the nations resources aud commerce"

sively read by those interested In
psychic research and various forms
of mysticism and alleged SUPER
natural phenomena. Here is its ac-
count:
EVERY one has heard of the
malign Egyptian mummy case which
was brought to the British Museum
some years ago, and whose presence
dealt death and disaster to attend
ants and others who looked upon it.
A story is now being told in we'll
informed circles which is said to
have emanated from one of the
museum authorities. From this 1t
would appear that several OF the
museum attendants, convinced that
they were in danger of their lives,
presented an ultt alum that the
coffin-lid must be removed from their
vicinity or they would resign.
Their demand was considered by
the curators, and, in view OF the
catalogue of calamities that some
how seemed connected with the
mummy case, their demand was con-
sidered reasonable. A replica was
accordingly made and painted in
exact facsimile, and this was ex-
hibited to the public as the real
thing, no outsider being any the
Z wiser or the worse. The coffin itself
was deposited in an obscure cellar
in the vaults of the museum. Then
all stories as to the evil influence OF
the Egyptian coffin ceased.
''The attendants exhibited the rep
lica with calm minds and stolid in
scrutability. The public who gazed
upon it suffered no ill-effects. BY
and bye, however, an American
Psychologist inspected the coffin
and ascertained that 1t was certainly
not genuine. 1t was faithful copy,
but his expert eye discovered 1t to be
q fraud To drop on the British
Museum exhibiting fake was an
event of flrst-class importance, and
an exposure that would have brought
worldwide ridicule upon the veneer
able British repository Of antiquarian
art and treasure seemed imminent.
1.-THE curators, therefore, took the
American visitor into their conf
dence and explained what had been
done. Moreover, they took him to
the cellar and showed him the
original coffin. and he declared that
he was satisfied.
~sBut look here he said. r

make you bid for IT.!
