First Through Train From Cananea, Steams into Naco After lnterinission of about Three Months
TOWN OF NACO IS
 ONE OF THE DEAD
New Commandant of Border Town IS Busying Himself With the Rehabilitation of The Town.

The first train between Cananea and Naco, Sonora, on tbe line of the southern Pacific de Mexico. arrived in the border town yesterday after noon at o'clock. This marked the first resumption of train service be- tween sonora's big mining camp and tte border for practically three months
 A number of people made the jour ney from Cananea 10 Naco and said that the track. b ridges and general equipment were in very passable con dit!on Dave Green @ we'll known Sonora saloonman and very favorably known in the Warren District bought the first through ticket sold since the siege Of Naco first interrupted the operations of the railroad.
 According to C. Breton. civil head of the port of Naco. the train service will be run three times a week. The civil authority has b.fn in confer ence with Superintendent Cron. of the Southern Pacific de Mexico and the best Of feelings appar to exist between the Maytorena government and the railroad company.
 The machine shop, on the Sonora side Of the line, is being re-commiss- toned The srop is more or less of a veritable shell Not a window light in the structure was whole. Jagged pieces Of glass remain as a memory of shrapnen nights. water.soaked trenches, rocking humanity and a beleagured town.
 The whole town of Sonora. in fact. stands as one great monument to the desolation wrought by shell fire. The people of the Warren District and those Of the entire border. have ann pie opportunity to compare the wreck and ruin which has visited SO many parts of France. Belgium and Russia
 The remains Of trenches stand like the skeleton of a snake. com pletely surrounding the town of Ma co. Signs of habitation can be found in plenty. The ground is burrowed. Miniature cave dwellers palaces are scattered the length of the trenches. Signs of cooking an occasional re- maining 'fdiole" which will, undoubt- edly sprout in the coming spring. crosses, in front and in back of the trenches. mark what was one of the most prosperous and contented towns along the International boundary.
 The cuartel, once the pride of Naco. is be sprinkled with splotches. where the white plastering was knocked the ground by the beseigers' rifle fire. A large and ungainly hole gives mute evidence of we'll aimed shell from a field piece Wreck and ruin reign supreme inside the building as well as out.
 Of residents in Nauo there are to be counted in small lots When Ere ton and his customs men arrived in Naco there were some Chinamen left
 The Chinamen. unable to come in- to the United States. preferred to risk the wrath of the Maytoreeua forces to being shipped to China by the government of the United States.
 But Naco is feeling better It now has a government under the leader ship of c Breton. Street cleaning is one of the features. One of the hardships, however, which Breton is faced with is the fact that labor is not to be had. Consequently the work of cleaning-up will be slow
 The new. civil authority. however l is in earnest He is going about the task of rehabilitating Naco in bus inesslike way His men are search ing through the mesquite brush out side of the trenches for unburied dead and few days will elapse before they are all taken care of and given decent burial
