| Business Change,

Quite change took place Wednesday in the wholesale liquor house of Wm. B. Hooper S Co.,. in this city, that estab- Iishment, located on Mesilla street, hay ing been purchased by Wm. Kane X Co.,, who took possession Thursday. Mr. Kane has recently returned from Har- shaw, where he built mp a good trade in the same business, and his business tal- ents are fully manifest Tn his ability to make his present investment. Mir. Thos P Patterson will still continue in his present position as manager, his fidelity and close attention to business being fully recognized by the new proprietors.
 While this change has been fully con summated, the old business landmark will not be entirely Obhterated from this city, and the legend " Wm. B. Hooper X c." vill n few days appear above an inviting set of offices at the corner of Nesilla street and Church plaza, through which all the extensive notifications of their business throughout Arizona and New Mexico, Texas and Sonora, will be conducted, and their extensive depot of supplies near the railroad will continue to forward goods to the various branches of the house.

Meyers District.

Meyers district is in a fair way to be : come one of the best mining camps in ' the Territory. Several Philadelphia : companies are about taking hold of the mines therein, and this fall work will be pushed most vigorously. The shaft on the Guusight mine is now down about zt0 feet. It is an incline run with the dip of the vein, which is Co the west. At that depth tbe shaft is all in orc, and a crosscut which runs 22 feet west from the foot wall las encountered nothing but ore. The face of the Crosscut is in better ore than at the bottom 0f the shr+t. The Silver Gdrt mine runs Farai- Tel with the Gunsiglt, but dIrs to the east. Both mines are evIdeu1ly of one and the same lode, the true pitch of which VIII probably be found to be to the east. From the strength and char acter of the oilver Girt foot val 1t is to be presumed that when the two veins come together t will regullte the pitch of the lie. At the bottom of the Gun sight shaft. 2tO feet below, calculating from the dip of the two veins, it is esti- mated that distance of 90 feet sepa- rates the Gunsight from the Silver Girt, and from appearances t Is very possible that the present orc body extends the whole width. An average sample, taken from nine feet of the surface of the Sil- yer Girt assayed over S900 per ton. Sinking Is being steadily carried on in the Gunsight, and there k ore enough in sight to run a 3O-stamp mill one year. These two mines are the properts Of one Philadelphia company.
 The Morning Star mine is tue first ex- tension south of the Gmssht It has about 100 tons of ore on the dump that averages Sl00 per ton.
 The Morning Star Extension Com pany of Philadelphia has been incorpO- rated to work extensions of the Morning Star mine. A. Caldwell, the superiu- tendent of Gunsight group, has also been rendered the superintendeney of this company, which will commence work immediately.
 Preparations are being made to sink another hundred feet on the Mineral Bed mine.
 The Atlanta, at 25 feet in depth. has an ore body funr feet wide, aH through which metal is visible to the naked ere Orders have been issued from Philadel- phia -o sink lG0 feet more on this mine.
 Mr Bivens, who has managed the min ing interests of Meyers district from the beginning, will return from Philadelphia this montb.-I Yuma Free Press.

 Tbe CITIZEN last Thursday made brief mention of the death at the hospital of Mexican named Marquis, from wound received some ten days ago in 8 melee in the Barrie Libre. The under- taker notified Coroner Horton of the case, but that gentleman's business was so urgent that he could not hold an in- quest, and the man, clearly murdered, was consigned to the grave without the cause of his death being fully estab- lished, as required by law. It has come to a pretty pass if officers of the law only propose to discharge their duties when it suits their personal convenience.
