P" the train." The engineer replied.
There are no Americans on the train"
Puzzled at this information Villa is
said to have ridden below Laguna with
his men and there waited for four and
a half hours. The explanation of the
delay In the arrival of the two merl-
j cans was that they had left on a freight
nam preceding the departure or the
passenger bearing Ornelas. and the
freighter was passed by the passenger
train at Moctezumi.
Chihuahua Fears Hump.
When the freight train bearing the
two American business men arrived at
Lagivna the train crew discovered that
the Carranza garrison at Laguna had
boarded the Ornelas train and gone into
Chihuahua. Telegraph advice was
asked by the crew as to whether or
not they were to come on into Chi
huahua, and the Chihuahua garrison
commander, fearing that it was Villa
himself who was resorting to this ruse
to enter Chihuahua, replied "Side
track at Laguna to make way for train
northbound and come In tomorrow"
It was this delay at laguna that
saved the lives of two Americans, so
stated the Mexican passengers The In
cident happened on January ol
RELEASE HIDES
Shipment Made By Carran
za Government Permitted
to Go to New York.
The two carloads of hides sold by
Mexican officials in Chihuahua to the
FInnegan-Brown company, of New
York, and detained at the local custom
house for several days because it was
alleged 80 percent of the hides shqwed
brands that belonged to Americans and
persons residing on the American side
who had not been a party to the killing I
or tne stock 01 sale or tne niaes, were
released Friday afternoon, and began
their Journey to New York city.
In releasing the hides, the local cus
tom authorities stated that all ship-
m.nti frnm V.rlcft rtnmtncr Intn h
stateB under similar conditions, will be !
neia up for investigation. The delay in
shipment was the result of a request
from W. Harrell, secretary of the Pan
handle and Southwestern Stockmen's
association, upon the custom officials.
Mr. Harrell took the position that a
writ of injunction might be secured
and the hides tied up pending federal
court proceedings Several decisions
from the higher courts were studied
bearing upon tho title to possession of
the hides and when these were found
to be adverse, the request for further
holding of the hides was withdrawn.
It is understood, however, that suit
mav be instituted by the respective i
owners 01 me niaes against tne import
ing company, but this action would be
civil.
Third Car of Hidm.
A third carload of hides, many of
which are said to bear the brands of
ranches owned by Americans, was
brought over Saturday. Customs col
lector Cobb said Saturday morning that
the car would be held until Monday,
so that stocl men interested could have
an opportunity to inspect tho ship
ment A renresentatlva of one nr the larve
i cattle companies controled by Ameri
can interests said Saturday:
The original shipment from Chi
huahua consisted of three cars. The I
iirst two cars to cross had few Ameri
can branded hides in it. The last will
have more. The shipment of thc first
two cars was a test case and now we
may expect almost anything"
Complaint Is Filed.
Complaint has been filed in the
county court against Jose Maria Rubia,
charging him with bringing stolen
pioperty into the state. RubU 1 al
leged to have brought in a quantity
of hides, stolen from Calderon Bros,
of Mexico.

Sonora Receives Highest Award at the
Great Panama-Pacific Exposition
LTHOUGH it is more than thirty years
since the phonograph first came into use, it
is only within the last ten or twelve that' the
wonderful possibilities of the instrument for enter
tainment and education have been fully appreciated:
and the phonograph has become even more a part of
the home furniture than the long familiar piano.
The large manufacturers taking advantage of
the ready sale for machines, however, have struggled
for quantity rather than quality in manufacture, and
have contented themselves with stimulating the de
mand by lavish advertising.
The Sonora has been made in accordance with
certain ideals, and may justly claim to be
"The Instrument of Quality
Clear as a Bell"
Here are certain features in which Sonora
' PRICE $22b-
Selected la Preferenc
When Heard la
Comparison''
as is stated in the trade mark,
phonographs excel all others.
Tone Quality Is of the first importance, yet the
Sonora was the instrument lo be given the high
est and only perfect score for tone quality at
the Panama-Pacific Exposition, and the only one
to receive an award for this feature thus defi
nitely establishing the Soaora as superior to all
others in this most important particular.
Universal Playing by which the Sonora plays all
makes of disc records, diamond, sapphire, steel
needle, etc., perfectly, was first introduced by
the Sonora, and Sonoras are still far in the lead
in this respect.
77ie Automatic Slop on machines costing $100.00
and over is a very desirable feature. It is simple
to operate, and the mechanism (which also in
cludes the Automatic Starter) is thoroughly
reliable.
The Envelope Fding System of the Sonora is re
markable in its simplicity and nearness.
Tone Control, first used on the Sonora, by which
the music may swell and die away at will, is a
fascinating and exclusive feature: this control
over the expression adding greatly to the pleasure
of the listener. The method by which the sound
is controlled at its source (and not merely
muffled) is a patented one.
Cabinet Work and Design. The beautiful flow
ing lines of the cabinels speak for themselves.
The quality pf workmanship is comparable with
that expended on the making of violins or other
musical instruments. They are finished on all
sides, permitting them lo stand out in the room.
The Motor runs nearly twice as long as any other
made at the same price.
The Sound Box, Iic the motor, is made in Switzer
land, which has been for generations the true
home of music and musical instruments.
The pleasure and satisfaction to be gotten from a Sonora, however, rests m no one of these
things, but in the perfection with which they are all assembled, and the manner in which each plays its
part in making of the Sonora.
