From Thursday,s Daily.

THE residence of MT. E. \. Fish was a scene Of fun and festivity last night. The
 real occasion or it all was the iact that yesterday was March F, and just five
 years since Mir. and Mrs. F. had started
 on their way together It was their inten-
 ton 10 suprise their friends after all were
 together, by the announcement that thIs
 was their wOOden-wedding day; but there
 were too many confidential whiperings,
 and the result was that the friends serious
 ly treated the matter as a genuine wooden
 wedding, and put the surprise upon their
 hosts. a number Of wooden articles of
 use and ornament being left as remem-
 brances. A full array Of Tucson society
 was present; there were the best appoint
 ments for dancing; something 10 stay the
 possible fatigueS Of the evening was serv-
 ed with great liberality; and it Is safe to
 say that not a merrier evening has been
 passed this winter Not least among the
 events was the re-affirmation of their mar
 riage VOWS by Mir. and Mrs. r. we pre- sume for the sake of safety against the
 possible effects Of certain recent legisla-
 ton. The bride was solemnly invested
 with wooden persuader" for the main-
 tenance Of her proper position and au- thOrity; and the groom received a sweep ing charge from the officiating minister. There is no doubt but that this family will, in the future, as in the past, be noted for the order and harmony of It's internal relations. We congratulate the high con- flaaf the attainment of this anniversary, and hope for many returns.
 AMONG the many evidences of our gen. eral progress and prosperity Is the rapid school. We learn from Prof. Horton that the accommodations at the school buUd- ing are insufficient for the number of pupils now on the rolls. The present at. tendance is about 225, while the rolls for the same month last year show roll of only l75. The school building will accom- modate conveniently only about 26O pu- pills, so that there is already a surplus Of twenty-five small boys to be slowed away in the corners, on extra benches, &c. All our readers will be pleased Go learn that some addition to the school building IS thus made necessary. It will soon be too warm to pack the children in overcrowd- ed rooms, and We trust it may be consid- l cred proper for us to ask if the trustees have not some means at their disposal by ! which Improvements, absolutely neces' sary, can be made without delay.
 Losr.-We dislike 10 be annoyed with business propositions at a social gathering but sometimes 1t is necessary as well as profitable to mingle business with pleas are. One Of these instances occurred last evening and at just the season when .ren- ovment waxed warmest we were request ed 10 note the following advertisements: [,ost-At the celebration of the Wooding Wedding or Mir. and Mrs F. \. Fish, March l2, 1879, about II o'clock D. m, by .he handsomest lady in Tucson, her appe- lite. We are also permitted to state that .he finder will be rewarded with square meal provided the lost treasure is returned .o the original owner with .ts luster unim- paired.
 UNDER strict orders from the city au- ,horlties the police department is keeping town all disorderly manifestations.

All paid their fines but Higgins md Cunningham, who languish in theI 3astille.

Ward will be in tomorrow with S2,0OOl ounds more, and a day or two later Con- reras will be here with 25,OO0 pounds more pr the same firm. Strangers are at loss Q know what becomes of the immense hipments Of goods constantly received N our merchants. The question is hard ne ana we really give 1t up.
