MISCELLANEOUS,
Tombstone District

Tho leading mines of this place are more
than coming up to all that was expected of
them. The Charleston mills send out their
regular quota of silver bars now averaging
about $4,000 per month, and the Contention
mill an equal amount; thus making 100000
per month from the two mines--the Tough
nut and the Contention. At this rate it will
aggregate about two millions per annum from
the two mines with their mills at present ca
pacity. But these mills will be enlarged or
other ones built, for the output of the Tough
nut will more than supply double all the
stamps now dropping in tho district, and
shortly the Sunset, Grand Central, Empire
Prompter, Head Centre, Randolph, Ajax aud
other mines will have mills, and as these
mines produce an abundance of ore equally rs
rich as that now being milled, l cannot well
SEQ how the annual yield OF bullion from
Tombstone alone can fall rs low as $4,000 900.
In fact, there is to be boom" here very soon
that will out.boom everybody else's boom.
Besides mills we are soon to have more steam
hosting works than all the rest of Arizona
| combined. There arc now seven of them here

Among the most interesting incidents of tho

Shady, and you can all join in the chorus,
emphasizing all, The Incompatible old darkey
song was sung in Lumbard's best style, the
entire convention joining in the chorus, with
n strangely thrilling effect. Il spec by and
by you'll see Mussa Grant comm, sung Lum-
bard, in the words of the negro bidding adieu
to JEFF Davis and the convention Gheered the
aptness Of the song, aud the enthusiasm broke
out again when Lumbard sung;

Extrayagant Women.

A fashionable dressmaker recently sued the
Countess Potoclii for the amount of her bill,
said amount not being far from 100000. One
nj tcle in the list was a cloak lined with Rus
sian sable, TO: which the modest sum of So, 400
was charged. The count declared that the
prices asked were absolutely extortionate aud
refused payment. Hence the suit. The now
famous cloak has been placed in the hands of
an expert, who will be able to declare If the
furs used were worth anything like what was
asked for tho garment. 1t appears that
the Count Potockrs father died some
time ago. He was great miser, had kept
his children deprived Of all the clegan-
cies to which his wealth entitled them, and
one of the first uses that his son made of
his new inheritance was to authorize
his young wife to so and purchase for her
self complete and splendid outfit. But he
never contemplated such prices rs the dress
maker in question has seen fit to demand, and
so he has made necessary stand against til Q
extortion.
am told that there are some other really
startling revelations of the same nature to be
unIolded shortly. Worth, for instance, has re-.
fused to make another article for certain
noble English lady, whose husband is one of
the wealthiest men in England, because he
cannot collect the amount owing to him, now
over 100000 (Sl00,000). 1t is said that the
books of that famous establishment, if care.
fully Investigated, could tell strange stories.
There was one fair lumnary of the second en-
pire who died owing Mr.. Worth some
$4,000, and l do not know if he has
ever yet been paid in full. But the
chief of any one Of the great houses of
Paris could tell queer tales of that nature if
he would. l have heard Of how there came
one day to the Compagnie DIES Indies (tho
greatest lace and India shawl warehouse on
the Rue Richclieu) n certain noble duchess,
with set of point lace Aouncos that she
wished to have altered. The courteous sales.
man took her directions very quietly, hut
when they were ended, he remarked: "Bo.
fore we alter your lace, madam, do you not
think that you had better pay for III" The
bill had been standing for over seven years
But the liveliest case on record of this nature
was that Of the wife Of n prominent official of
the second empire, who bought Il superb set of
diamonds on credit, took them straight
way to the Mont dc Pcte, aud forth
with pawncd them. Naturally when
| the bill was presented she was unable eithor
| to pay it or to return the jewels. The affair
was on the point OF terminating in tromou-
dous scandal when some prominent parsonage
informed tho emperor of the whole matter,
and pointed out the terrific damage that would
be done to the reputation Of the imperial Off.
