THE Good Templars of Diamond cele-
brated the tenth anniversary of the orsani-
cation of Diamond Lodge No. l on the eve
ming of the 18th inst. The opening at 8 a. m.
was made interesting by a number of inn
promptu addresses, in which sketches of
the founding of the lodge, its progress and
triumph were given, after which the party
spent an hour or two at games. This was
followed by singing and dancing. A sump-
tuous supper was spread, to which they all
did justice. One of the most interesting
features was the music and singing. The
songs by the Misses Smith, Miss Mary No
Ian, Miss Lizzie Walling and Miss Ella Finn,
are worthy of especial mention. The affair
was confined to the lodges membership,
except a few intimate lady friends, to whom
much of the evenings enjoyment is due.
The local mention last week of Mr.. John
Shroder's trouble about placer mines at the
head of Beaver creek brings out a long let
and at his request we publish that part of it
relating to the affair, which he states are
facts. He says:
] employed a man by the name of John
Dye to work on the claim this season, and
ON April 9Th he and /, accompanied by L.
A. Blaine, went to prospect and determine
where it would be best to open up. l (as is
my custom) took my gun along in the hope
that | might find some game. The other
had a pick and pan, and when we got there
| asked Schroeder for the loan of a shove
tor a little while which he gave. I ther
asked him where he was at work, and asket
him if he was aware that he was upon thu
patent? He said Schmidt had told him h.
was not. | asked him to come and l woult
show him the lines Of the claim, which II
did. He claimed to nave his title fror
Schmidt, and / asked him to show me tn
papers, and he said they were in his cabi
in Ohio gulch. We agreed that he was t
, bring his title to my place the next day G
the day following, where [ would show hir
/ a bill of sale from Schmidt to me, I havin
j. bought his interest there to get the require
amount of work for the patent, and it W
: could not agree as to which was the best t
tie, we would go and show all the papers t
Il. E. Collins, Esq. and have his opinion O
E it. Schroeder did not come as he promise
and [ have not seen him since. / did no
], order him off the claim nor threaten him i
. any way.

MEssRs. Sperisen & Watson, of Benton
gulch, after a chase last week of eight or
ten miles in the snow and fallen timber,
succeeded in capturing a monster bear.
Mr.. Sperisen says he weighed full 700
pounds after dressing. The fat on his hind
quarters was three inches thick, and when
tryed made about twenty gallons. He
thinks it was bruins first tramp after leav-
ing his winter quarters, as he had taken no
food and was very lank. His hair wa long
and of steel gray color. The color and ex-
%traordinary size induces the belief that he
was an out and out Rocky Mountain grizzly.

Stanley's ElOquence.

Stanley does not seem to have put all the interest of his recent African explorations into his book, Through the Dark Continent" judging by a late private letter from Paris. At a dinner given bim by Colonel Thomas ". Knox, at which a score of journal ists and literary men were present, Stanley, at their request, gave minute and thrilling account of the relief of his starving expeditions at the mouth of the Congo. The recital, which was in the simplest and most modest man. ner, occupied two hours; was listened to with breathiess attention through out. and at the close there was not a dry eye Tn the room. Its eloquence was in it's simple truth, and one who was present says that it was the most in- teresting and pathetic narrative he had ever heard. Surely, a man who can hold for two whole hours a company of journalists and authors, many of whom have travelled far and wide, and had moving and perilous experiences them selves, must have something eXtraordi- nary to relate, and must be possessed of the gift of true eloquence.

Brigham Young.

Brigham Young was the only pro fessed prophet on earth who got rich of of hIs own dupes, and whose heirs were compromised with, in order to divide the stealsges without making too much noise about it. Brigham had stolen everything except the tenn pie itself, and John Taylor settled quietly with the Young heirs, receiv- ing as the church divy the theatre and a few buildings that are not worth the money invested in them. The Youngs took all the church farms, the church herds, the banks, railroads, stores, choice town lots, etc, etc, all Of which had come from the confiding people in the form of tithes, perpetual immigra- ton funds, work under various preten- ses, temple funds, fast donations, fe- male relief funds, etc, etc. The people just begin to realize the vastness of the steal. Ii amounted to many millions Ogden Fireman.

Our Financial Condition.

We dislike to annoy the public with our private affairs, but as we are about to take fresh start il Tucson the fol lowing quotations may be admitted:
 If from Cum, they are valuable as coming from one who knows how to make 400 0pound steer weigh 800, and who has saved out of $l 300 per an nun enough money to buy a printing office Enterprise
 Bro. Cum was in Tucson a few weeks since, endeavoring to get such security for CollingwoOd as would be accepted by him before he would al. low the press to leave Florence.-Star.
 After reading these extracts the pub. lie will know exactly who owns THE CITIZEN, and just where the money came from. We have simply to sug- gest to the Enterprise that our record will bear investigation. It is certain that we kept the Apaches al peace, and didn't need to borrow any rations from the military. If We made an extra 400 pounds of beef we are that much ahead, while it is evident that no one has been injured. But Marion can't prove anything: he has tried that over four years, and now he better take a rest.
 To the Star, we can say that howev- CT poor we or our credit may be, we have never been compelled to issue on brown paper" nor 10 barter our col umns to a Mining Company for job office.

The Indian Question.

The leopard cannot change hls spots nor can the Indian Agent, though he resign and embark in the newspaper business, drop the cant common to the fraternity. Cum says, in the CITIZEN of August 10th, "the Eighth Infantry wouldn't have killed hostile Apache if they had been kept in Arizona twenty years. We did well to get rid of them, etc"
 It must be gratifying to such com. manders as Capt. Porter, Major Bray. ton and others to have their records held in such high esteem.
 Again; The strength of our peace and our security against hostile h. dians, is in our Indian policy and scouts"
 The above is from the last Enter prise. The word policy in our ar ticle was written police" but our ty- DO made a mistake in the last letter of the word which was not noticed until too late for correction. It was our in tention to say "Indian police and scouts" We don't think as much of our general Indian policy as the Enterprise does, but we stand solid on the fact that "The strength of our own peace and our security against hostile Indians is in our Indian police and scouts" Capt Porter, Major BraytOn, etc, made good records in Arizona, but the Enterprise will remember that they commanded companies of Indian scouts.

A Little Form is Missing.

A little form is missing, A first-bOrn nursling flown, There is anguish in the household
 Left desolate and lone. There is a new mound in the graveyard,
 A short and narrow bed, And parent hearts are grieving
 And mourning for their dead. A little crib is vacant now,
 Tiny garments made in vain, A baby voice no more shall moan
 And sob with earthly pain. You fold away the little robes
 Your loving fingers wrought, It has changed for robes immortal
 The fading ones you bought You may weep beside the little grave, You may kneel and kiss the sod, But think, oh, stricken mother,
 Your child is now with God. Yes, safe with God, and safe from pain, From sorrow, care and-sin, Far safer than those without the fold Are the lambs who have entered in. Oh, think where is your little one, Not in its cradle bed, Not lying in your weary arms,
 Nor with the molderlng dead, But safe above in Heaven,
 Upon the Saviour's breast. With his loving arms around it, It takes the sweetest rest. Strive not to check your tear-drops, Let them fall like summer rain, For beam Of hope shines thro' them You may meet your child again. Yes, weep, but with exultIng: That rare bright gem you've given, To receive a glorious setting In the diadem Of Heaven.

{" Apache Land.''
(By Chas. D. P,-.on of Arlzona.) }


 Another book has been written ol Arizona with the above title and by the aforesaid author. Florence has tn, misfortune to own this demented ole fossil as a resident. His new worl is the most disgraceful attempt a rhyme we ever saw. It is totally un worthy of editorial comment and would not be noticed had not the author made shameless personal attacks on some oi Arizona's best citizens. The poet (?) stoops to low, vile personalities, but this is in keeping with the man and his work. Last winter he came io us with his manuscript and wanted his bosh and slrrs published in THE CITI. ZEN, but after a brief examination il was promptly rejected. The old man and his sayings are harmless where his true character is known, but his book may be read by some who are curious to observe the extremes of human fol- ly, and it is our desire to acquaint such with the true character of the author. Every true critic will at once condemn the work. The following comments on this new book appeared in the News Letter of August 24
 The author of this remarkable work, in the second paragraph of the intro ductiOm, says: Ut was written in mud hut, on dirt floor, without the advantage of single book of refer ence, and no more knowledge of met rical composition than a donkey has of yardstick, and goes into the world a simple child of the desert, like the author" If this is the truth, and we. see no reason whatever, from the con- tents of the work, to dOubs it, why under heavens it was attempted: Why was so much time, paper, presswork and composition wasted in giving to the world a mass of the most insuffer- able bosh it was ever our i'll fortune to encounter? Was there no kind friend to advice MT. Poston not to rush sol wildly in poetical(D life? Why didn't the printer show some consideration for this misguided man, and refuse tol the job: Why was his MSS. not rejected from the first? We con- fess to having looked it over, and al- though we have become much unset tied and rendered rather nervous byI it's perusal, we cannot refrain from giv- ing a few quotations, from which an opinion of the entire work may &C., be formed:
 Fort Yuma now stands on the hill Where Gila's brighter waters All The Colorado's muddy bank, Just opposite tbe soldiers tank. Twas built on site Of Yuma land, By brave old General HeintzeIman, On the other side, on sandy ground, My chief with him laid out a town, But neither now from Squatter band Can claim a single foot Of land.
  We bought this land from Santa Ana When he sold under the hammer, The old one-legged Peter Funk Ten millions must have made him drunk. 1 The treaty made with old Gadsden Was all very we'll as things went then. For old titles now we've no regards; We've become nation of Communards; We'll confiscate these old estates, And then make tracks for Eastern States. l And so on through one hundred and 'orty-one pages.
