LOCAL MATTERS.
TucsOn's New Hotel.


 Mfr. Joseph Neugass this week opened hts new restaurant in the fine hotel re- gently erected by Messrs. Maish & Drls- coll. Thursday noon's lunch was the first
 meal served in the new quarters, and those entering the building at that time had the pleasure Of seeing the restaura- teur, clothed in his blandest smiles and some other trifles, welcoming and waiv- ing to their allotted seats his numerous guests.
 MT. Neugass may well be proud Of his establishment; the hotel Is the finest building in A-iEona, and the dining rooms will bear comparison with the best in the large cities as to cleanliness, alriness, qui- ct and comfort.
 In moving Into these rooms the proprie- tor has made an entirely new deal, from the bare tables down to the napkin rings; everything is new. The silver-ware, crock cry and in fact the whole tableware were bought in San Francisco and Mir NeugasS has spared no expense In respect 10 com fort and even elegance. As we entered the hotel Thursday, everything which greeted our eyes was new; the rooms from the well-laid floors to ceiling were reso- nant with newness: the table spreads were new and crimpy; likewise the napkins too, there were new plates, the cutlery was new and a knife and fork at every plate; there were new castors with new contents, new glassware, new sauce bottles and,- new food; yes there was new food. We experienced some unhappiness Tn this re. spect; where. oh where was the little green colOred pickle on whose rind we carved our initials three years ago, and which through all those years had daily met us at lunch? This old friend was displaced by some new assorted pickles, but with the sense Of our loss full upon us, we could not even extend to them a sour recogni- ton. Where too was our old catsup bot | tie, whose label We had defaced until it read Superior Tom Cats," and so supple mented our frugal meals with food for the | imag gination? This too was gone, displac- ed by new bottle whose clean label con | fined us To the prosaic fact Of tomato cat sup.
 Alas! what changes the years bring. There was sermon 10 us m these losses Of old friends. old things and ways Of doing things are passing away in Tucson. The old style Of restaurant will no longer do. MT. Neugass, with true business sa- gacity, recognizes this fact, and therefore he has taken his new departure He sees that a well-kept restaurant, with the per sonal supervision Of the party most inter- Iested, good food we'll cooked, moderate prices, walters who don't need a galvanic battery to induce symptoms Of life,-hel recognizes these things as requisites and ne Is going to provide them In the future. He is the most successful man in his line In Tucson as regards permanency, and with the prosperity of this as we'll as the other good restaurants at present in oper- alton, the bachelors of Tucson ought no longer to be objects Of pity to the bene- diets Of their acquaintance. In fact we only fear that some of the married men, seeing our happy lot, may be tempted to stray hctimes from their hearth and home ahd thus SOW seeds of discord. Don't do anything Of that kind, benedicts. You may lose in tender joints and succulent game; your bills Of fare may be limited generally in comparison 10 ours. but buoy ed by the smiles of the fair, wait patient ly for your reward hereafter. In the mean time We shall take our comfortable meals at Mir. Seugass'. By the payment Of a reasonable stipend monthly, we shall go to our meals when we chOnse; if we get fa- tigued Ove- night and finger fin the arms Of morning beyond our usual hour, we shall wend our way 10 our accustomed seat, unmindfui Of the time and never be | disappointed in a welcome, and warm meal. We can sit there alone, in perfect quiet, no household cares or bills or ba- bles ts distract. Along the cool seques- tered vale of life" we shall breakfast. lunch and dine in all the quiet peace | which none but a bachelor knows. The days Of our tribulatiOn are over and in view Of the present excellent restaurant In Tucson, every bache- Tor therein should hang his banner on the outer wall and determine to live single | this vale Of tears AS to the ben edicts, their case seems hopeless; they had had awful examples held up to them, from the time Of Adam down, yet nothing would satisfy them but to marry From the depths Of our heart we pity them but they have crossed the Rubicon and must abide their late There Is no relief,-ah' yes, there is oue;-they can come to the and bring their whole family with them.
