1t will be seen, by correspond
enee reported in our advertising col
umns, that, at the request of our
leading citizens, Mr.. Walter Leman,
of the California Theatre, has con-
scented to delay his departure for
San Francisco in order to repeat
his reading of Hon. Nathan Por-
ter's lecture on tho drama. Owing
to the bad weather, and other I'M
favorable circumstances, the at
tendance ut Mr.. Leman's last read
ing was not so large. as both the
merit Of the lecture, and the sxcep-
tional grace and finish Of the
reader, should have guaranteed.
An universal desire having been
expressed that the reading should
be repeated, Mr.. Leman has named
Monday evening as the time, and
Good Templars' Hall as the place,
for the second entertainment. We
are certain that the hall will he
crowded by our most cultivated
and appreciative people. Mr.. Leman

Arizona Mining News.

We clip the subloined items from
the Arizona Citizen, published at
Florence:
Mr.. s. Sllverberg returned on
Wednesday from trip to the
| Globe District, where he il inter-
ested in some very valuable min
ing property. Mr. s. says tn Mex
lean mine is looking first rate; the
ledge is twenty feet in width and
the ore body four feet. The ore
will average $3.50 to $500 per ton,
and the quantity is immense.
That's good enough.
Pat Con nelly sent US down a
beautiful ore specimen last Mon
day from the bottom of the GUIANA
juato mine. 1t is filled up with
splphurets and covered all over
with chleridss; it weighs about five
pounds and will assay over $4,000 to
the ton. Pat had some assays made
yesterday from specimens not quite
as good as ours and the certificate
showed nearly $1,000 per ton. That
Connolly strike was a lucky one
and the best of it is yet to BE- told.
We were taken quietly aside one
day this week aud shown some re.
markably rich ore from the
"Eudora" mine, situated about
eighty miles south OF Florence in
Pima county. The specimens we
saw would go all the way up-and
even beyord-so we don't like to
estimate their value, but the owner
has had an assay made Of what was
considered waste rock at the mine a
few years ago and the result shows
nearly $500 per ton in silver. Pretty
good waste rock that. G.. P. Howe,
of Florence is the lucky locator.
Messrs. w. B. Hellings, and c.
H. Beckwith were in town early
this week and left by coach for San
Francicco on Wednesday morning,
for the purpose OF completing the
sale of the Golden Star gold mine,
which has been for o number of
years the property of Mr.. HellIngs.
We mentioned in our issue of
Novem Der 30th that tho Golden
Star had been bonded by G. H.
Beckwith fer George D. Roberts of
San Francisco for $4,000. Since
that time the mine has been ex-
amlned by various experts, who
have reported in the most favora-
BILE terms. One thousand dollars
was paid down at the time of bond
ing the mine, and the remainder is
to be paid at once. Mr.. Roberts and
his associates will ship the neces-
sary machinery at once, and the
work of developing the mine and
reducing the ore will be pushed
with energy, and we bespeak great
prosperity and rich rewards for the
Cave Creek camp.

CHICAGO, Ill. April % pc.
lice report that the communist element
here already number several
thousands, aud that many drilling
places are almost nightly frequented
by armed men. There are three
balls on the North Side having IA
%ciiilies for drilling purposes, aud the
Superintendent OF Police reports that
about 1000 men drill 10 them ever
week. la the Seventh ward are two
halls where they drill. In this ward
between 400 and 500 men drill three
times a week. There are two halls
in the Fifth ward, where large mum.
bers attend the drills, which take
place three times a week. Ia the
Sixth ward loo men drill 10 two diff
terent halls. Superintendent CT Pc.
lice Hickey says that the arms used
by the organizations are mostly
Springfield rifles of the old and new
patterns. The most startling fact
that the Superintendent has discov-
cred is that the communists have
sent an agent from this city to New
York to purchase arms and amuni
lion. vi this lie has 20 doubt what,
ever, having the most convincing ev.
idence of the fact 10 his possession.

CINCINNATI, April l5.-Advices
from many points in Kentucky, Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois indicate that
the storm of yesterday was very gen
eral and severe. A Somerset, Ky,
despatch says the storm in that re-
gion has never been ~equalled for fury
aud persistence. The wind unroofed
or demolished dwellings, stores and
other buildings. Chimneys, fences
and trees were destroyed, and more
or less damage was done to the
property of nearly the entire popula-
ton. In one place a house hall a
lille from town, occupied by cOlored
people, was blown fiat to the ground.
The property of the farmers is very
generally injured. On half an acre
Of land ia one place forty four trees
were uprooted. Some persons were
forced TO flee to the cliffs for protec-
tioD. Advices from Wayne county
and other sections of Kentucky are
of the same general tenor.
AT Toledo, Ohio, several buildings
were seriously damaged.
At Monroe, Ohio, a brick block
was uDroofed and a portion OF the
wall thrown down, crushing a small
house occupied as a confectionery.
At Salem, Ohio, the upper part OF
the Na5b residence was blown over
upon Perry's foundry, crushing the
roof and ipjuring two workmen.
Quite a number Of other buildings
were unroofed.
At K~ensington, Ohio, a brick
school house was demolished, ipiur-
ing all the children, some of them
quite seriously.
In this city end vicinity, signs,
trees. fences, &c, were blown down.
