IN the archaic art Of all the prehis-
toric civilization the use of beads is
shown on even the crudest paintings
and sculptures; and, as We approach
the later ages, of which we possess
at least crude written records. we find
the bead still maintaining it's impor-
tance as the chief feminine decoration.
In fact, it may be accepted without
hesitation that practically all our own
articles of jewelry are derived from
prototypes which were originally but
manners of wearing strings or pend
ants of beads.

TEMPE
DR.. SAL MANS TELLS OF
CONDITIONS IN MEXICO
Splendid Lecture Given in Methodist
Church Hehe Yesterday Morning

The Rev. Levi b Salmans, NJ d.
spoke at II o'clock Sunday morning in
the Methodist Episcopal church at
Tempe. He has been a missionary in
Mexico for the past thirty years. hay
Ing served in the ministerial and edu
cationai work for a part of the time
and for % years served in the medical
missionary work in Guanajuate, where
he founded the Good Samaritan Hos
pital ard Dispensary in the which he
organized the first nurses training
school ever formed in the republic
which graduated seven classes of nurs-
Is before any other similar institution
was sufficiently developed to graduate
its first class. The doctor told of the
course and development of this medical
work and the resultant effect upon the
Methodist schools and churches in Gu
anajuate and indeed upon almost the
whole body polite in various respects
in all that region. Ninety thousand pa
tients have been served. quarter of a
million dollars earned professionally
and turned into the work by himself
and his fifteen assistant physicians,

on indigenous resources without direct
aid from the missionary society splen-
did schools built up and the first fully
supporting and self governing
Protestant church of the republic es-
tablished
This was the first medical missionary
work established under denominational
auspices in Roman Catholic country.
Such was its success that six other de-
nominations have taken UP the matter,
some of them having built splendid
hospitals and there having gone to
Mexico altogether from the United
States about 100 doctors and trained
nurses to do medical missionary work.
Medical missionaries were supposed TO
be peculiarly adapted to missionary OPP
erations in pagan lands, such as Asia
or Africa. where their presence was
needed for caring for the health of the
other missionaries. Many people seem
to have imagined that, because such

countries IS Mexico possessed modern
ly educated practitioners. there was no
occasion or need there for medical mis-
sionaries. This the doctor stated had
been shown to be a great mistake, as
healing and teaching where from
Christ's own days closely allied with
preaching for the purposes of evangel-
ism, and healing not less so than teach
ing The work of healing in Mexico,
the same as in other countries, has
been able to furnish an ocular demon
stration of the real spirit of love and
boneficence existing in the gospel thus
removing doubts and fears, prejudiees
and hatred and replacing them with
confidence and the kindest considera-
ton, as we'll as with a receptive spirit.
These things have to be accomplished
in countries where there are modern
practitioners of medicine the same as
in pagan lands and the healing art is
the wost powerful agency Christ him
self or the apostles os the seventy 9TH
er preachers appointed by Him were
able themselves to find or use. 1t is
the doctors opinion that all churches in
every country, whether considered a
missionary land or not, should avail
themselves increasingly of the use of
the healing art in the hands of the very
most skillful and consecrated practi-

The doctor has a daughter who is a
teacher of Spanish and German in the
Tempe normal school and another, who
is a student in the senior class. He
came this way from New York, where
he has spent the past eight months
studying in New York post graduate

OF HISTORY
G. V. Angulo, a Visitor in
City, Who Has Resided in
State for Sixty Years,
Tells of Some Other Rainy
Spells-Snow in 1862

G. V. Angulo of Tucson. who has
been in Mesa the past few days as
the guest of his son, c. f. Angulo,
of The Toggery, looks upon the
present rainy spell as a repetition of
certain other floods that have Wis
tied Arizona. The first severe storm
in the memory of one of the oldest
settlers in the state was in 1862
W lille he was clerk in Tucson.
The rain began falling in February
and continued for fifteen days and
finally ended in a snowstorm. 1t
was during the civil war and many
of the residents of the Old Pueblo
We're under the impression that it
was caused primarily by the con-
the north and the south. The un-
usual amount of water, together
with the unprecedented cold, was
something unheard of and no other
cause could be ascribed.
In 1881 continued Mr.. Angulo,
we had a very severe rain which
lasted for seven days. Tucson at
that time was made up of adobe
houses, and there was not roof
in the town that did not leak
In the opinion of the aged man
the present precipitation, while more
copious than in recent years. does
not compare in intensity with the
storms of 90 and 81.
Mr. Angulo mentioned some of
the prices that were charged in the
early days when money was plenti-
full and when liquor flowed freely in
the little town of Tucson. Lard sold
in the Sos at $3.50 per pound, while
ordinary muslin brought S10O a
yard. Corn sold for $1250 per hun
dred while a drink of whskey cost
fifty cents
In the opinion of Mr.. Angulo the
present rains are liable to continue
for some time on account of the
early arrival The start has been
made and the real rainy period, Jan
uary and February are yet to come
