Directors

The property of the Company consists of $500
head of cattle, houses, six ranches, controlling
twenty miles of river front, which controls 20o-
600 acres Of land, houses, corras and other build
ings necessary to conduct the business, located In
Tonic Basin, centre part of Arizona Territory.
IT has long been known that the raising of Cattle
in Texas, NewMexico, Arizona and other States and
Territories of the great west is and for many years
has been immensely profitable and the fame Of tho
Cattle Kings is world wide. Starting with small
means, these men within a comparatively. short
time, attained positions in the World Of business
and finance rivalling the famous Bonanza Kings Of
the Pacific Coast. Their success shows the results
of intelligent and persevering efforts and the short
time which has been necessary for the achievement
of that proves conclusively that Investment
made in the cattle business rarely fails Of returning
ratio of profit fairly astonishing to those not IA
miliar with the resources OF the great west. And
the almost absolute certainty with which the profit
can be relied upon, will at once commend this class
of investment to anyone who will take the trouble
to study the history Of Stock in the western portions
of the United States and more particularly Texas,
New Mexico and Arizona. Capital invested in cattle
will return larger per centage of interest than Is
returned by any other legitimate Investment and at
the same time be free from the risks and uncer-
tanties usually attending highly remuneratiye or
speculative business.
No safer investment could be offered.
The management of the Company's affairs is In
the hands of parties whose long experen renders
them familiar with all details and are einently t
ted to conduct the enterprise with success.

BEFORE JUDGE BONNEN.
FRIDAY. Charles E. Warwick vs.. A T. Sterling
and Fred Il. Mortimer. Action to recover 1892 for
rent of Lyceum Theatre building on Exchange
street, seven weeks less one day. Defendant Ster-
ing denied that he was partner with Mortimer or
that he ever held himself ont as such Verdict for
the plaintiff for S151.70.
Benjamin Thompson for plaintiff
i. W. Parker for defendant
John j. Roach VS.. Horace G. Hewes. The plain
tiff is glider, and claims that in consideration that
he would assist the defendant in his business, de-
PENDANT agreed to furnish him with all the work he
wanted to do for one year at the rate of thirty
cents an hour; that at the end of nine months
defendant discharged him for fauton plaintiffs
part and he claims TO recover the difference between
what he would have earned and what he has been
able to earn after he was discharged until the
pratt On Of the year. The defendant claims that
the contract was not for one year. He admits that
he discharged the plaintiff simply because he had
no'further work for him, and that if the Court de-
cdes that the contract was for one year as the
plaintiff claims plaintiff is entitled to decision
for Sl5l.70. The case was tried before the Court
without jury. Decision reserved.
Benjamin Thompson for plaintiff

was held at the coart room here on Thursday
Nov 18th, at o'clock p. M, for the adjust
nent Of. little difficulty which had arisen
among white and colored people at Ligonia
Village. From the testimony adduced it
would appear the parties had been engaged in
free fight and that the dolored men were too
much for the whites, hence the arraigDment
of one colored gentleman and three colored
ladies. Judge Perry, after hearing the testi-
mony, decreed that the gentleman should pay
fine OF ten dollars and costs and each of the
ladies should pay a fine of one dollar and costs,
the whole amounting to something over $50.

Read whatDr Ludwig Gays of the Health
Lift exercise: 10 person engaged in seGen-
tary pursuits, the constant use of the Health
Lift will prove a great blessing. Unlike all
other physical exercises, it does net exagger-
ate the strength Of one PARK Of tbs body at the
expense of the other parts, but it brings every
muscle into prompt service at the same nc
ment, causiog healthy action and a renewed
and lively circulation of the blood. OF its
merits can speak from personal experience,
having praoticed on the Health Lift about
eight months. Commencing with lifting 100
pounds, which was a full lift for me at that
time, ut the End of the eight months j could
lift $40 pounds with as much ease as 1 could
the 1870 lbs. at the commencement. l cheer
fully recommend the nse of the Health Lift.
Maun's Reactiorary Litter is the only reliable
machine for exercise.
