aProtest From Orc BIaneo.

Mir. A. k. Smith, who came in last Thursday from Gro Blanco, states that some dissatisfaction exists among the miners of that district on account of the recent establishment of the PajOr ita and Fraguits Mining Districts The former, it is claimed, includes the old town of Orc Blanco, and much of the old Gro Blanco District, and the formation of the new district is liable to result in much annoying complica- tion. MT. Smith declares that the miners of his district object not so much to the matter of the division as to the manner of it. No notice, it is claimed, was given of the intended separation, either by the miners of the Psjorita, UT by those of the Fraguita. Had such notice been given, the Gro Blanco miners would willingly have met in conference and arranged the matter SO that all would been satisfied. As it is, some of the claim holders do not know to which of the districts their allegiance is due, and in some cases the separation is liable to be the cause of great inconvenience.
 THE CITIZEN suggests thst inst at present would be a good tune to call Q meeting of the miners of the three districts, at which the matter could be amicably settled, and All liability of future trouble or complications 6e re- moved. ~..
 Mir. Smith gives us welcome piece of intelligence in the Tact that Af. c. H. Holbrook, Of Oakland, will in few days have & Wheeler rotary stamp mill in Tucson, on its way to Orc Blanco, with all the necessary accom- paniments. It will have a capacity of i've tons per day, and is | compar- atiyely new invention. We sincerely wish Mr. Holbrook the best of success, for it only needs practical mill in that district to create the best kind of boom.

New Diamond Drill.

We had the pleasure of meet ing NIT. ". s. Fritz, who has been sent out to Tucson by the American Dia- mond Rock Boring Company to put up and operate the new diamond drill re- gently purchased by the San Xavier Smelling Company. MT. Fritz has for many years been engaged in the con- structlon and operating of these drills, and we may therefore expect soon to hear of the machine being at work.
 The drill itself arrived several days aco and with the boiler and machin- cry will be shipped at once to the mine. It is the first ever brought 10 the Territory, and its, advent is the subject of a great deal of interest among our mining men. It will at once be put at work on the ledge about 100 feet from the shaft. After depth of 900 feet has been reached, the dia- mond will be turned against the mountain, and a horiEental hole will be sen. clear through.
 The smelling works will commence operations Tn about 8 week, and the pipes now bring water distance ol two miles to the mine, though not vel | comnIsted to the shaft.

Good Word. for old Hat District.

Good Words for Old Hat District.
 we lad the pleasure on "Wednesday evening Of meeting Mr. VIII Fow. ief' a is'e arrival Tn our Territory and valuable acquisition to our mining community. Nr. Fowler has for years been engaged in mining opera 'ions In Nevada and California, and is no" visiting Arizona on business of the California Prospecting and Devel- oping Company. He has just returned rom a visit of eight or ten days to the Old Hat District, and he expresses himself as surprised and delighted be. yOnd measure at the evidences of won. derful mineral wealth which that new district discloses. Ills verdict is a most emphatic Good" He believes, although asserting that the country has features which are entirely new to him, that there are the most positive evidences in the veins thus far dis closed of permanency, while some of them are of astonishing richness. Like all mining men from the older States, he Is somewhat disappointed st the amount of prospect work accom- plished, but such as there is is turning out extraordinarily rich.
 Ar. Fowler visited the American Flag, the claim which shows the most development in the district, having s shaft so feet deep on the ledge, with a well-defined vein carrying horn silver, chlorides and some galena, and with two feet of pay matter. Another shaft has been started of tue ledge which will tap the vein at the depth of about 65 feet.
 The Merrimac, belonging to Wiley Box and others, he found to be splen- did prospect, having at ths depth of 52 feet B vein three feet wide and in dressing in size with every blast. The ore is a very fine grade.
 The Christmas has rock at the bot tom of sn 1S-foot shaft which assays as high as 5000. The pay-streak IS Is inches to two feet wide.
 NIT. Fowler also paid a portion of the Bloodsucker District visit, and was well pleased with what he saw Tn the short time he was there.

A Fine Thing for the Teeth.

Fragrant SOZODONT is a compo. sitiOn of the purest and choicest ingre- dients of the Oriental vegetable king dom. Every ingredient is we'll known to have a beneficial effect on the teeth and gums. Its embalming or anti. septic property and aromatic fragrance makes it toilet luxury. SOZODONT removes all diSagreeable OdOrs from the breath caused by catarrh. bad teeth, etc. It is entirely free from the injurious and acrid properties of tooth pastes and powders which destroy the enamel. One bottle will last six months.

In From HarahnM.

George Campbell, owner of the rich and promising Pensacola, at Harshaw, gives us the following notes of pro gress of his various claims at that point, since our last report.
 Work has been steadily prosecuted on the Julia, which lies about a mile and half from thertown of Harshaw. The shaft is now down about 9 feet, and disclOses a sIX-fOot ledge of chlo- ride ore. 4 pay streak four feet wide csrries ore that il is believed will average S60, as the rock is of a most uniform character, and assays as high as $115 have been obtained. The shaft will be sent to a depth of 100 feet as fast as possible.
 The Delaware has 30-fOot tunnel all in ore, and the Brick Top, which joins the Delaware, has 8 30 foot shaft in the vein which shows ore all the way across. Assays from this fine large body run as high as S175.
 The Pensacola, which has been too often mentioned in these columns to require further description, will soon be opened up again, and we shall ex- pect 8 showing that will be great credi. even in this camp of bonanzas. Even now it has an immense body of rich ore in sight.
 Nr. Campbell states that, instead of Harshaw having two or three hundred population, as has several times been reported, there are fully 500 people in the camp. Most of them are men who possess but small means, and much more capital is necessary to show the true value of the claims. This will all be remedied in time, however, as the wealth is there in the hills, and it will attract capital just as certain as that the hills are there.

H1ack from the Mines.

MT John Spring has returned from a most successful eight-days business trip through lhe southern part of the county, and is in consequence highly pleased with the prospects in both camps.
 At Harshaw he found building to be ost active, Lord & Williams new z ore, just completed, being one of the
 .ndsomest and most complete retail houses in the Territory. MT. Spring also found the branch of the Park Brewery in a prosperous condition. The Hermoss mill IS getting along finely.
 From Harshaw to Washington Camp he found the miners confident and consequently happy, and everybody on the high road to wealth.
 Charleston was found to be sur prisingly lively little town and the two principal business houses-Wei- isch and Scott-were apparently uOipS an enormous trade.
 Mir. Springs account of Tombstone coincides exactly with that of every me else-a live and growing town with great future and most ener- getic people.
 The crons in the Sonoita Valley were reported to be in excellent con dition, owing to the late rains, MT Spring stating that he saw corn that was three feet high in places, and oth- or grains in a similar state of growth

RuIIdIng Notes.

Prominent Smong our citizens who ,sva recently been extensively i'm .-,virg their real estate is Mir. J. NJ. p.rger. the jeweler. He has just com -,,sted a block of dwelling houses at hs corner of Sampson and Meyers s,raet which in point of completeness, srish and convenience are models They occupy frontage of 7s feet on Nsveys street and 50 feet on Sampson, .,5 are so arranged that the entire b,ildiuC can be used as one residence, .r divided into separate dwelling houses. The frontage is such that f-,m each of the dwellings can be had O .nleadid view Of the green and fer ,;r Santa Cruz valley. A visit to Mir. Rergrr's own residence, in the same ,lock is genuine treat. The build ;7cs and grounds, though unpretenti- ,1S m themselves, are most taSiefully ,-namented with arbors, shrubbery, s,rers etc, snd when MT. Berger ,ompletes his contemplated improve nepts no pleasanter residence will be ,,und in this country. Like many busi- ness men he finds recreation and rest in utilizing his odd moments in work ing around his place, and being of most lngeuIous turn, he has himself constructed fountains and irrigation works. planted and cultivated grape vines. which this year bear the first ,-Yib fig trees, etc, and with hun s-ed devices made a most beautiful rlsce of bis home.
 Mir. Carlos Tally, editor and pro r-ictor of La Sonora, with character is,ic enterprise has about completed second story to his premises, on church Plaza, and with its double raple roof. the building presents most imposing appearance. The second story will contain ten fine large rooms, and will probably be occupied ss offices. etc. The lower floor has eight large rooms, and the whole building has a frontage of 37 feet and depth of 70 feet. The improvements have cost Mr. Fully s22OO, and the ex. penduure, beside being 8 credit to him. shows his deep faith in the flu lure Of Tucson
 Additional rooms are being built to the Sisters school building, on Con gress rect.
 MT. II. C. Wiley has just finished a weU-5gilt threeroom dwelling house on Ni..ary Plaza, which is quite an addi- ton ,U that part of the city.

The Windmill Fund.

We are somewhat surprised that the usually liberal people of Tucson have not more generously responded to the suggestion that & fund be raised for the purpose of presenting windmill to St. Hary's Hospital. The object of the appeal is 8 most worthy one, as better facilities for using the water at the hospital are urgently necessary ; the incessant demands upon the slender funds of the Sisters render it impossible that they should make the improvement themselves, and it should be an act of pleasure Oh the part of our people, as it is their duty, to fur. nish the money.
 It is therefore with pleasure that we announce that Mir. Alexander Levin, with his characteristic generosity, has arranged to give q grand ball in aid of the fund. at his Summer Theatre, on Thursday evening, the 9th instant, the entire proceeds of which will go towards effecting the desired object. TuIy & Ochoa will act as treasurers in the matter, and all money will be paid to them. Now let every one pur. chase a ticket, and the windmill will be an accomplished fact. Purchasers of tickets will be amply repaid in the enjoyment they will derive, and the patients at the hospital will be glad dcued by the sight of green trees asd beautiful flowers.

Not a single case has been before the Police Court during the week, and justice has had no occa sion 10 use her sword or balance or biindtold her eyes for seven long days in our community.
