Old Timers I'm Tombstone.

In glsncing over The Tombstone papers
can see almost daily the names Of ex-
Nevadans. A few days ago Appointment
citizen Of Tombstone returned from the
East with a new wife, and . quintet sere-
naded them. Here are the names Of the
vocalists who furnished the music for the
occasion: Dick Rule, Les Blackburn,
Fred. Brooks, George Atwood and Tony
Craker, all old timers, and all have been
doing just such pleasant tricks as this for
the last twenty years In new camps. The
afflicted Tombstone family put up the
wine, OF course, and toasts and q jolly time
generally ruled the hour. Those old Ne
vada boys know how to ring themselves in
on the good things Of this life.
