 The stage for Maricopa will hereafter leave Phenix promptly at II o'clock p. h., and will not wait for the northern connections. This change has been made necessary owing to the fact that if the mall does not arrive at Maricopa at o'clock D. ID. 1t IS reported, and for each failure 6 fine is attached, which makes it essential for it tO leave on time whether the northern mail goes or not.
