MIR. HERMoN WELIsCH returned last
 evening from Tombstone, where he has
 spent eight days In looking oyer mining
 property and business prospects general i ly. He says he saw some beautiful rock
 from the Lucky Cuss shaft at q depth Of
 seventy-five feet. On the Empire mine.
 the property of Mir. Stowe, the shaft Is
 down I2O feet and is all lum bered in a
 manner that shows fine workmanship.
 He now communicates with the workmen
 In the bottom of the shan by bell signals.
 About 100 tons Of ore are now on the
 dump valued at least slOO per ton. Mir.
 Welisch thinks that, generally speaking,
 business Is rather dilapidated; compara-
 lively few men are working and money is
 correspondingly scarce. He thinks there
 are now about 1000 tons of ore in the dis.
 trict ready for the mill. The Tombstone
 mill will not be in running order for six
 weeks or two months. At Charleston
 business just now is light, buildings are going up rapidly, about sixty Mexicans are now engaged in making adObes, which are being put in the walls as rapidly as they are made. Fifty houses are already about completed; town lots are already scarce. MT. Welsh has lot in the center of the town upon which he has dug q we'll and Is now building house, all Of which shows that he is confident of the prosper ous future of Charleston.
 MIR. LEVIN has given another evidence of his generous nature and public spirit I,x-e Fr,x fn bIa l, of the Public School and of the CatholicI School, both boys and girls, 10 attend the grand May-day concert to be given to- morrow afternoon at the Park, commenc- ing at half past four p. m. The invita- ton was gladly accepted and the children are now anticipating a grand good time. | It has been further proposed to make up a purse for the purpose of providing cakes and lemonade for the little ones. The editor Of THE CITIZEN has the subscrIp- ton list which already contains a mum Der of liberal donations. He will see as many as possible and any not called upon who feel desire tO contribute to this worthy measure can leave their mites with Mir. Hudson at the bank. If, any de sire 10 offer further suggestions for the and entertainment Of the children, the same are now in order. Let all join heartily in thls matter and make 1t a complete success.
 AMONG our later visitors is Dr. O. $. Tunnels. Of Indianapolis, Indiana. Dr. Tunnels Is one of those gentlemen who nave exerted faith without seeing, he hay ng, without personal investigation, plac- sd some Of his means 10 the credit Of Ari- zona mines; and he Is now here for a few weeks of relief from professional labors, md to see the beauties Of this country above and below ground.
