FIND A SNAKE IN BANANAS
Attacked by Whole Office Force, Ser
pent Is Cornered and Commits
Suicide.

Tacoma, Wash.-A we'll behaved,
beautifully-colored, five-foot Porto Ri
can snake, species unknown, which
had smuggled his way some 5000 miles
in bunch Of bananas from his tropic
home, arrived In Tacoma.
Bill Hall, driver for Hammond &
Co., packed bunch of bananas to the
scales. After weighing them he saw
something that looked like peculiar
leaf In the top of the bunch. Bill stuck
his finger down and the leaf turned
into big, red, hungry mouth. Bill let
out yell that sounded like a steam
boat whistle and ran.
The whole office force, armed with
various weapons, advanced to the at
tack aud the snake dropped on the floor
and headed for the wharf. When sur
rounded he coiled and was ready for
battle.
Seeing his chance for escape cut Off
the snake plunged his fangs into his
own body, gave final wriggle and
turned over stone dead.

AGED PERSONS ARE MARRIED
Romance That Began Nearly Half a
Century Ago Is Happily
Ended.

Cleveland, GA romance which
had it's birth half century ago In
the public schools of Niles, but which
was broken by a lovers quarrel, cul-
minated Monday night at eight o'clock
at the parsonage of Rev. T. Alfred
Fleming at No. 9S15 Pratt avenue,
when Mrs. Emma Davis of No. 10720
Massie avenue and David Armstrong
of No. 10521 Grantwood avenue were
married.
Mrs. Armstrong Is fifty-eight years
old, her husband is sixty-two.
Armstrong and his bride were play
mates in Niles so years ago. Almost
constant association brought their two
hearts together, and as years passed,
plans were made for their marriage.
Armstrong was then twenty-one.
Then came the lovers quarrel-a
trivial disagreement-and the twain
drifted apart. Armstrong married; so
did his first love, and then nearly 40
years passed away.
Death left them single again, and
fate drew them together. Both settled
i'm Cleveland scarcely a. thousand
yards apart. Their love dream of
youth was resumed. And they began
counting anewl The aged "newly
weds' will make their home at 1920
Massie avenue.

OLD MINE WON AT CARDS
Thirty Years Later Claim Shows Pros
poets Of Producing q Large
Fortune.

Helena, Mont.-One wintry night
some thirty years ago a group of men
sat about a card table In Helena. 1t
was late when one man showed In his
last "white"-and lost. Demanding
one more try, he offered a mining
claim. Not a gambler In the house
would give the desperate stranger so
much as a chip for his claim-none
but "Swede Sam" Wallin. The miner
lost. The land which became Wallin's
as a result Of the night at cards lay In
the Blossburg mining district, near
Helena. AS the years Of three decades
passed, Its dirt remained unnoticed.
Lately Wallin's claim may have
grown to be worth 100000. A pros
pector struck a rich vein Of ore In
the Blossburg district, running into
Wallin's claim.

FINDS BABY PARALYSIS GERM
Medical Achievement Is Attributed to
Or. e. c. Rosenow Of Mayo Founda-
ton at Rochester, MINI.

New York.-Medical men showed
keen interest when word reached this
city that DIR. Edward Q. Rosenow,
head of the meteorological depart
ment of the Mayo foundation at
Rochester, Mimi, had finally sue
ceeded in isolating the germ which,
judging from the invariable results Of
many experiments, is the cause Of In
fantile paralysis.
One important result of Doctor
Rosenow's work here during the sum-
mer-he went back to Minnesota only
a few days ago-was the discovery
that invariably the germ which he has
isolated was found In the tOnsils of
children suffering from infantile
paralysis. Doctor Rosenow's expert
ments here showed that children suf-
fering from poliomyelitis who were
not making a good recovery showed
striking improvement after the ton
sis had been removed.

officers and men lent their own money
to buy food and forage, but 1t was not
until the end of April that clothing
could be obtained. By that time the
men were In a pitiable state. Two
fights stand to the record of the Sew
enth-Guerrero and Tomanche.
The Thirteenth, which arrived at Co
lonia Dublan on March II, furnished
the two picked troops which Major
Tompkins commanded In his dash af-
ter villa and which were halted at
Guerrero. The itinerary of the re-
mainder of the regiment embraced Eel
Vale, Las Cruces, Namiquipa, San
Geronimo, Lake Itascate and Eel Rubio,
where Ii made its headquarters May l
to seek bandits in the district to which
Ii had been assigned. 1t was concen-
trated at San Antonio on May 10 and
later went into permanent camp at
Colonia Dublan.
Story Of Hard Luck.
The history of the Tenth cavalry is
record of hard marching and hard
luck. Short two troops when it was
made part of the column that entered
Mexico from Culberson's ranch, ii was
divided on reaching Colonia Dublan.
The first squadron, sent south on the
Mexican northwestern, lost number
of men by injuries when their ram
shackle train was wrecked. The third
squadron participated in the vain
march to San Miguel. 1t was joined
March "a by the first, and both reached
Namiquipa March %. With the first
squadron at San Diego del Monte, the
second engaged in It's first clash with
the enemy at Aguascalientes on April
1. Three of the 80 Villistas were
killed. On April this squadron
reached San Antonio, and on April
il was at Cusi. Ordered on April ID
toward Parral as thanking force, it
arrived at a point 20 miles from that
city Just in time to REINFORCE Major
Tompkins' squadron, which had re-
treated from that city. The regiment
was concentrated during the retire
ment and camped at COlOnia Dublan
on May 10.
The regiment on May lost its com
mander when Colonel Brown, ill, left
for home. Brief mention only is made
of the hardships the only negro cav
afy in the.expedition endured. 1t re-
ceived no clothes until May 13. The
horses began to suffer early in the
campaign from lack of forage and on
March % they were further disabled
when their shoes began to wear out
The first supply of coffee, hard bread
and bacon received since March Is
was furnished the men on April 20
During that time the command sub
sided almost entirely on beef killed
on the range and corn ground in small
hand mills. No details are given con
corning the scouting expeditions il
which Troop G, from Ojo Federico
and Troop X, from Dublan, were en-
gagged when cut up at Carrizal.

GUGGENHE|MSN NOW
IN AJO DISTRICT
Pay Over 100000 for Two Year Bond
and Lease on Group of Claims

AJO, Ariz., June S.-The Guggen-
helms (the American Smelling and
Refining Co. J. have entered the Ajo
field, taking a two-year bond and
lease on the Copper Mountain group
of mining claims, situated about Is
miles south.
Diamond drilling, it is said, will be
commenced Immediately.
All operations will be tributary to
Ajo, the claims taken over being in
this mining district, and this camp
being the postoffice and nearest trad
ing point.
There are to be four equal pay
ments of rs per cent, the first falling
due in six months, the second in one
year, the third in year and half,
and the final payment in two years.
The selling price is given as over
100000.
The owners are M. E. Gibson, Jr.
and W. A Knox, both of Ajo.
The deal was made the first of the
week through VI
Tucson, the S. P. man, who is agent
for the Guggenheims in this portion
of the southwest. He visited the prop
erty, accompanied by B. B. Ellis, Of
the Longyear Co., diamond drillers.
The Copper Mountain group con-
sists of sixteen claims. The forma-
tions are similar to those at the New
Cornelia and at the Ajo Consolidated,
probably monzonite and rhyolite. A
massive dyke $50 feet wide extends
for a distance of a quarter of a mile.
Here there are many workings, includ-
ing tunnels, shafts, etc. The deepest
shaft is down 60 feet. There are four
shafts of from 40 to 60 feet, and any
number 10 to 20 feet. A tunnel 40
feet long connects with one of the
shafts.
The entire dyke is in ore "copper"

Considerable ore was shipped in the
early days.

COURT SAYS R. R.
MUST HAUL BOOZE
Decision of Federal Court CompeIs
Railways to Haul Into State Liquors
= Ordered for Personal Use.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 10
The federal court today ordered the
transportation companies to deliver
beer and whiskey- ordered from
Schiller Brothers for personal use"
This message was: received in L;
bee this week and if true, it clears
up a great amount of advertising done
by the Kansas City liquor firm and
much other speculation INDUCED in
during the past few weeks in every
section of the state of Arizona.
Judging from the brief message, re-
ceived from Kansas City, the decis-
ion will effect all shipments of liquor
for personal use into the state. The
complaining company, some weeks
ago, advertised for business in the
state of Arizona and guaranteed de-
livery. They at once mandamused the
transportation companies and,accord-
ing to the telegram, the federal court
granted the application.
If the decision is as broad as it
promises to be the transportation COM
panies will have some definite court
action TO base their acceptance of
liquor for delivery in the state. The
Santa Fe officials, recently in Pres
colt, declared their line would not ac-
cept liquor until the federal court had
decided the matter.
Detailed information as to the effect
of the decision is eagerly awaited
throughout the state.

CARLISLE MINE
SHOWS ACTIVITY

DUNCAN, June 14.-Men controll-
ing the Carlisle Mining company were
visitors at the property of the. COM
pany at Steeplerock this week for the
purpose of inspecting the progress
made at the mine Among the visit
ors was Sanford Makeever, of New
York City, president of the company :,
He left the camp on Wednesday
morning for his home, where a special
meeting of the board of directors is
to be held soon after his arrival
there. At the meeting steps are
to be taken towards making a general
reorganization Of the company and
raising sufficient funds to continue
the work begun last year
Mr.. Makeever was highly pleased
with present conditions at the prop
erty and, it is said, soon after inspec-
ting underground conditions and look
ing over the. immense ore bodies he
began arranging for conducting oper-
atoms on a much larger scale than
planned heretofore.
The mine has been entirely unwat-
cred and the pumps are now only
required to handle 70 gallons of
water a minute which is not suffi-
cient to even keep the test mill sup
Piled More water will have to be
developed to supply the mill
Manager NJ. K. WEIGH, of the prop
erty, was in Duncan on Wednesday
morning for a short business visit,
at which time he said that operations
at present consisted of only necessary
work to keep things moving, but that
at an early date the force of men en-
ployed will be greatly increased.
