PeTsOnal,

Judge T. Lillie Mercer is in town from Tubac.
 | F. L. B. Goodwood, of Florence, is al the Palace.
 Capt. W. H. Seamans has returned from California looking well as usual H. c. Walker, the boss of the road, when it comes down to staging, returned home Tuesday.
 The many friends of Henry Horton will regret to learn that he is confined to his bed by a severe attack of rheumatism.
 D. D. MoriRrty, Superintendent of the Sunset, aud L. Goodman, of Con- tention, made the CITIZEN office A very pleasant call Tu esday.
 NJ. W. Bremen, the most success ful mining operator in New Mexico, is at the Palace Hotel. His many friends are glad to see him again. 4sP. D. Sturges, A. Erlund and c. F. Zogbaum, New York capitalists who purchased extensive mining property in Sonora last Spring, arrived in town last night and registered at the Palace
 Jesus Ballesteros, of the custom house service at La Noria, and one oi the pleasantest young men in Patago- nia, has been in town several days on visit. His mother and sister will ac- company him on his return and reside permanently at Harshaw.
 Miss Nellie Cashman, one Of Tomb stones merchants, has been visiting Tucson for e few days, the guest ot Mrs. NJ. J. Smith. Miss Cashman vas formerly a resident of Tucson, where she won the respect of all who knew her by her sterling personal and business qualities.
 Capt. T. J. Jefords left Sunday for California, 1t is understood, 10 perfect arrangements for the erection of water works in Tucson. We nope the Captain will be not only success ful, but enjoy himself fully during his temporary absence from his old |" stamping ground"
 Chief Justice French returned Friday night from Prescott, and it is to be hoped that he will remain at home for some time. Judge French has borne the brunt of the hard work Of the Su- rreme Bench, as well as the work ot this district-more than enongh for one man, and he is about overworked.
 D. B. Gillette, one Of Arizona's most successful mining operators, and the man who made the Hermosa what il is today, returned from his long visit to the East on Saturday night. MT.

they would hold an inquest on scbnei der, and If l killed him, they would hang me in twenty minutes. I told them that did kill him, but I wanted fair trial. Well. guess you know all the rest"
 The murdered man seems to have been universally liked. Richard Oird' Superintendent of the mine. who went 10 California on last pight's train, told Marshal Slppy in the tram that Schneider was a quiet. peaeeable man, and he never heard of his ever having trouble with anybody before. NIT. Gird admitted, however, that Schneider had a clasp-knife in his hand when he died, but that it was not open.
 George McKelvey, the constable who arrested Rourke, had the utmost difficulty in getting him to Tomb stone. He had the prisoner in a buggy, and the pursuers nearly caught them at one time. Arrived there. the prisoner was taken to Jim Vogan's saloon and a strong guard placed over him. Shortly afterward a mob collected and would undoubtedly have hung the prisoner brt for the frmness of Marshal Sippy and the other officers. Another buggy was procured and SIppy and Deputy Sher. iii Behan got into it, with Rourke be- tween them. and rode of accompanied by fifteen men well armed with ri- fes, the latter accompanying them a distance of twelve miles. Threats were made that advantage would be taken of the cutoff between Tomb stone and Psntano, 10 reach the latter place on horseback, and the train boarded by the angry vigilantes, but the officers arrived safely with their prisoner, who had about as narrow an escape from death as often falls to the lot of ordinary mortals.

OUR TOMBSTONE LETTER.
Progress of the Mona Mine in Tur- quoise Camp - Other Promising Properties in the Same Section Tombstone Notes.
Special Correspondence oi the CITIZEN.

Special Correspondence of me CITIZEN.
 TOMBSTONE, January 12.- The Mona mine, in the Turquoise camp, is showing up in excellent style. The new working double compartment shaft is now down S9 feet and tim bered from top to bottom in the best of style. They are down about the same distance on the discovery shaft, and when both shafts are down about 100 feet they will run a drift to con- meet them. The ore IS improving in richness, and the width of ledge is not known yet.
 The Defense is not being worked at present, but large force of men will commence work shortly.
 The Contention CTurquois camp) is now down some 40 feet and the bot tom of the shaft is all in ore which will go we'll up into the hundreds.
 The Bradshaw is now down over 200 feet, and they are taking out 5000 rock.
 The Tough Nut hoisting works are all completed with the exception of getting some of the machinery in place, which will be done in a day or two, when they will start up.
 The Head Center and Tranquility mining companies are erecting hoist ing works. The Head Center IS now down about 420 feet.
 It is the intention of the Contention and Grand Central companies to run a railroad from Benson to tombstone, if the Southern Pacific Railroad does not commence shortly; so there is no doubt that we will have railroad con nection soon.
 The Vizina mine is shipping ore to the Boston mill daily, but the mill will not commence to run on its ore for some days yet.
 Major Bayless has started work on the Anchor mine, and they are now down 25 feet, with most satisfactory showing. It is his intention 10 open it up in earnest.
 The mines along the Charleston road, in the southern part of the camp, arc now attracting considerable notice.
 The Oakland, owned by Messrs. Irwin and Poage, is down 9 feet, and showing up in excellent shape, and will continue to some depth further under the management of San Fran cisco party, who is working it for an interest.
 The new Mayor and Councilmen took their oath of office yesterday. One of the first duties II will perform is the election of City Attorney. Mr. Marcus P. Haynes, formerly District Attorney at Newark, New Jersey, is the most prominent candidate.
 $. W. Carpenter, late Recorder of Pima county, and wife are In town, and arc stooping st the Grand. but will move in few days to their new house on Fourth street, near Saf0rd's.
 Nr. Gillette, President of the Cir ard Insurance Company, left last night for his home in Philadelphia. He expresses himself as much pleased with the camp, and predicted . great rush of Eastern capital IS soon as the southern connection is made.

Our Weather.

The attention of those people who claim that our present delightful weather IS beastly cold this morn ing," etc., IS invited to the following epitone of real cold weather |" bIck East, g taken from Springfield (NIass) paper:
 Another example of the curious re- veTsal of meteorological conditions is furnished in the fact that Maryland and Virginia are enjoying an old fashioned New England winter, while central New England gets Of with moderate Virginia weather. The storm which began Saturday extended along the coast from Maine to Virgin ia, and was ne most disagreeable of the season Snow fell all along the line, but the heaviest in Maryland and Virginia. Al Baltimore on Sun day morning, the rain turned to snow which fell 10 the depth of a foot, the heavIest fall in three years. At Wash ington the snow was followed by rain on Sunday, which made the foot trav- el so disagreeable that the special Christmas services announced in some of the churches were given up. In Virginia the country roads are badly blockaded by snow and ice, trains are delayed and travel generally is great ly impeded. Along the Delaware coast the gale was very severe, and some marine disasters are reported In New Jersey the snow drif'ed badly on the railroads, and the fall was nine inches on the level.

Here our polite friend Beckwith
 handed us over to the foreman on the
 top, Mir. RObsrt Bowen, who could
 not be outdone in kindness by any
 body underground. He put us on the
 top of the King and showed us all the
 earth below, and we felt very much the poverty of a devil on a mountain
 with a world of wealth below his feet,
 without a shadow of title 10 It. He
 showed us the narrow rich seams of silver ore that lured the truant soldier
 to the spot of the first discovery. He showed Us the enormous basin, 200 feet by s and 6j feet deep. from which the King sapped its first surface hundred thousand.
 He showed us where the last ram had washed down 2O00 tons of fine ore into the bottom of this basin. He showed us the little donkey engine that pulled out of that great hole the loads that gave the first vitality to the Silver King. He pointed to the wInze from this basin or quarry, reaching down seventy-fiye feet to near the new works, but which don't connect for fear of leading the surface water to the lower works; and the hlll itself IS but a mass of rich chloride ore, 10 be found within ten feet of the surface wherein the tOpof the ground is taken of. Ia looking around Mir. Bowen pointed to the neighbor of the King, the Blk. We supposed that plays the part of Mordecai at the Kings gate. an extension owned by Aaron Mason, Robert Bowen and Harry Jones.
 The Silver King is located easterly and westerly, at an elevation of 5000 feet, and the first work was on the edge of the big open cut or basin. It was here MT. Copeland found the first silver rock. Thanks to the bucking mule wat wouldn't go. ," and thus de- tained his companions, repacking, while he '' dropped upon their for tune
 Again our friend Bowen showed us 5000 tons of chloride ore On the old dump and 5000 tons more on the new dump, all heavy with silver, in all lhe mixtures we have described, and which the monster mule trains carry 10 the mill at Pinal as fast as possible lt the rate of 50 tons per day. We saw the large engine and machinery, he blacksmith shop, the telephone with the Pinal office, five niles away, the patent machinery for cutting screws and nuts, the large car penter shop, the Excelsior pump bringing water 130 feet. They work 50 men underground. Three engi- n eers. three carmen, two bumpers, one blacksmith and helper, two tim Der men, eight men on the dump aud with -he foreman, 22 Iu all on top.

Sale of the GoIdtrea.

Some time since the owners of the Goldtree mine, in the Santa Ritas- which attracted much attention last summer from the richness and extent of its ledge-bonded it to J. B. Ser geant, of Joplin, Missouri, for SEQ, 900. Mir. Sergeant has since visited the property himself, and has signi- fed his intention to conclude the pur- chase of the property. The bond ex- pired to-day, and the purchase money will be paid Gs soon as the wires be- tween San Francisco and the East which have been down for several dsys-are in working order, as it was being telegraphed here when the break occurred.

Encouraginc Commerce.

The mercantile traffic between this Territory and Mexico is a matter of
 interest and importance. and one which daily deserves more and more the attention of our merchants, prin- cipally of this city, as the center of mercantile transactions, especially with the neighboring State of Sonora. The connection between the railroad from Guaymas and the Southern Pa cIlic and Atkinson roads, which will be made in a comparatively short time, and the general development of that portion of ourneighboring Republic, of which we see unmistakable signs, will create wider fields of commer- cial enterprise for our merchants, par ticularly in the matter of American manufactures, as it will increase not only the facilities but the demand, at less risk and more profit, as the de- mand Is of course bound to increase with the growth of population in So- nora. They in turn, would naturally prefer American goods, as the more enterprising men in their midst would be from the United States, and also because our commodities will be able successfully to compete with those from European sources.
 This international trathc has of De- cessity Co conform with certain reg ulations, as having to do with the es- pecial legislation of another country, etc., and our merchants not being fa- miliar with such regulations and laws often creates difficulty in many in- stances and discouraging efforts look ing to secure such trade. It is for this reason that we again call atten- ton to the fact that there is in this a city Mexican Consulate, where in- terested parties may always obtain necessary information regarding the fiscal laws of Mexico. In this regard, also, Senor Rafael Varrios, the Mexi. can Consul in this city, informs us that, for the convenience of shippers to his country, he will admit all pa pers necessary to be presented to hIm in the English language, and will also furnish information in regard to the necessary character of such papers. This is by no means the first evidence which Consul Varrios has shown of the interest he takes in the friendly and successful commercial relations between the two countries,' and our people are much indebted 10 his ef- forts in their behalf.
