From Thursdays Daily. ARDERS0R- HUDSON.
Wedding Of ReV L z. Anderson and Mss
 Sophie Hudson.

| A very interesting though somewhat
 complicated, or perhaps more properly complex, celebration took place this morning at the residence of our favored
 townsman, Mir. Charles Hudson. This ] 18th or June ommemorates The tinieth anniversary Of Mir. Hudson's birthday.
 IL also completes twenty-five years of welded life for MT. and Mrs. H.-their sil- yer wedding-and was therefore deemed a
 most behtting occasion for the marriage
 oi their daughter Sophie with the Rev. J. F.. Anderson. At 10 o'clock the family
 gathered in the parlor and the groom en- tered with the bride leaning upon his arm, !, beautifully arrayed in white and be- decked with wreaths and bads Of snowy purity. As they took their places on the floor the bride and groom Of twenty-five years stood side by side with the bride and
 groom oftO-day. The former seemed con- tent with a consciousness Of dulles well performed and many rich rewards Of love
 and labor, while The latter were beaming
 with hope and the realization Of joys and
 happy duties just begun. The ceremony
 was after tho Episcopal form and con-
 dncted by Rev. Wm. c. Mills. When this
 was finished and the words " pronounce
 you man and wife" were spoken. the
 groom stepped in front Of his father and
 mother and in a feryent prayer expressed
 gratitude 10 Almighty God for the bless
 ings that had strewn their pathway in the
 past and a supplication that each future year might bind them closer together, un- til the strength and iervor of their love should find boundless scope in blisSful eternity. Congratulations then followed, which were indeed sincere. The company next repaired to the dining-room, where tce board was spread with all the boun- ties and luxuries of a wedding breakfast These were disposed Of amid much mer riment end pleasantly. Then Followed the bnstle Of preparation for departure, and at o'clock the sage rolled out, car rying Mir. and Mrs. Anderson, Mrs Hud- ! son and Miss Laura Hudson. all bound | for visit Co the coast. Mir. and Mrs. An ! dersOn will extend their visit as far as Col ! OradO, where a sister of the groom now lives. The heartiest congratulations and good wishes of the community follow the ! new ly married coupie on their journey and wish them a joyous visit, a safe re- turn and many years ofconnubial bliss.
 IL is but proper to add that Mir. Ander- !. son has labored cOnstaatly for nearly three years in this mission field and well !. deserves a brief vacation. The new church ! is now under roof and the work will con tinue, under the supervision Of MT. sam uel Hughes. so that the building will be ! ready 10 occupy upon the return oi the ! minister. Before leaving Mr. Anderson made arrangements with Rev. MT. Mills | to supply his pulpit during his absence, so : the regular services will continue. Dur | ing the building of the church MT. Ander- ! son has had many additional labors. His trip will rest him and he will return re- freshed and prepared to begin his work | anew in the new building.
 THE Restingmt Party could find few recruits in Tucson just at this time. The | recent good news from Tombstone, rich l and large developments in Patagonia and . exciting discovery Of Maidstone and Pea | body near San Pedro, have carried away l. not only most all our floating and indus i trious population, but much of the ma . terial of which the Bestingmen's Party IS Mines that will excite this | latter element to physical exertion. must | be uncommonly rIch-and that is the ex- act condition of more or less on all sides | Of Tucson.
 HOUSES and settlements in some shape | are dotting the country just eastward of l Tucson for several miles. number Of | wells have lately been dug and uniformly ! good water has been obtained in sand and . gravel at depths ranging from thirty-hve To forty feet. Dr. J. c. Handy now has men digging a well a few miles out of town towards Camp Lowell on a piece of land which he intends 10 improve.
 TEAM of mules ran away this afternoon 1n Main street, and broke down the tele- graph and knocked the stufing out of wagon.
