The fl m of Beckwith and Lewis has been dissolved by mutual consent, and Mr. Lewis will reopen the Lewis House, re- modelling and reftting it. He has made many neat and attractive improvements in the surroundings of his hotel which give the place homellle and cheerful aspect The re-opening of this house will i've us two tirst-class hotels and furnish ample accommodations for the increasing number of visitors to this growing town.
 Mir. Jack McGowan, for a long time foreman of the Silver King mine and subsequently, superintendent of the Til den, which is the east extension of the King, has returned from his winters visit at the East and is making his headquar ters here for the present. Mr. McGowan is an expert miner and knows how to handle mines, both under ground and in the market. He will probably take a bond on some mining property here soon.
 General Manager Linkton, of the Pi- nal Consolidated, returned from the South Pioneer camp Monday. It was his intention to visit the Deer Creek coal fields when he left here for the Pioneer, but he changed his mind. Tuesday, in company with Mir. Wm. Jennings and Ye Scribe of the ENTERPRISE, he visited the Mineral Hill district, and took look at the Lelo. He pronounces the latter a fine prospect, and says it can be developed at small expense.
 Jonnny. Moran, Charlie Weiser and Pat Morgan returned from the Owl Heads district Monday, and brought with them Il lot of ore samples in which the virgin silver shows as plain as the blossom on toper's nose. The most remarkable part of it is the fact that the ledge from which the specimens came, is out on the desert. they say, and shows this native silverrock on the surface. The boys think they have  and We hope they have.
 If you come to the city and want to buy any thing, don't 70 to your hotel to get the reputation of any person, for treat many hotel-keepers receive commission for prais- ing store keepers; but go to the Chief of Police, ask his opinion, he can tell you of anyone.

 Mir Jas. T. Ligon completed the erec- ton of the iron jail cells Monday, and the work was accepted by the board of SUI pervisors, Tuesday, and paid for. The jail will be the strongest in the Territory. excepting the Territorial prison at Yuma. We have heretofore riven detailed description of the cells and the manner of their construction, and will only add here that of all the patent jail cells, the Pauley patent is the most perfect It will only require an inspection of the cells at Florence to convince one of the truth of this statement
 The demand for dwelling houses in Florence is still increasing, while the sup ply is completely exhausted. We repeat, for the twentieth time, that some man with few surplus dollars at command, could insure himself steady and liberal income by building a few comfortable ten ement houses. There is no question as to the future of this town being one of pre- gress and prosperity. Its central loca- tion and manifold resources insure this. It is not dependent upon one industry for support, but draws alike upon farmers, miners, stock growers, etc.
 There has been another change in the proprietorship of the Silver King hotel of this place, Messrs. Beckwith and Lewis retiring and w. L. Bailey stepping in. Mir Bailey owns the building and intends to increase the room by building two story addition on the north end In- creased hotel facilities Is one of our great est present needs, and Mir. Bailey will render the town great service, and at the same time put shekels in his own purse in supplying this want. He will keep tirst-class house, and thls coupled with his universal popularity, will insure him full measure of success.
 It has been suggested by some of our citizens that funds should be raised, by means of private subscriptions, to build a fence around the cemetery and to remove the rubbish that has accumulated there. It is certainly time some such move was inaugurated, for the cemetery Is in a wretched state of neglect Portions of it are almost buried under mass of dead brush and weeds, while cattle and swine can roam over most of the graves at will. This should not be; the least we can dc for the revered dead is to see that theil graves are properly protected and cared for Should petitions asking subscrip tions for this purpose be circulated, wt are confident that our people will respond cheerfully and lberally. Generous in al
 things else, they will not be niggardly il
 this matter.
