Concerning the Beauty for Whom
Senator Fair Shattered All His
Household Gods.


Household Gods.
From the Peru Qnd.) Republican.
Reference has been made lately to the
unhappy domestic relations of Senator
Fair, of Nevada, which eliminated in a
decree of divorce and alimony for his
wife. The girl in the case, who seems
to have completely captivated the old
man with his SIC, 100000 is "Annie Car
penter" plump and handsome blonde,
about 81 years of age, with crushed
strawberry hair. Annie has history.
and so has her mother and her aunt.
She is the daughter of J. H. Smith, who
was the editor and proprietor oil the Pc
ru Free Press about thirty years ago. In
1876 ME-. Smith left her husband in Pc
ru and accompanied Mr.. and Mrs. John
7. Stevens to California-or at least was
passenger on the same ship with them.
Mrs. Smith went to the home of her sis
ter. Mrs. Schultz, also Peruvian, who
was then living with her husband and
keeping hote! at Young's Hill, a mining
town not far from San Francisco. Very
soon after her arrival there her daugh-
ter was born and christened "Annie."
GQ0
husband she abandoned in Peru
and married miner named Car.
penter, whose name her child by
the former marriage was permitted to
assume. She left Carpenter, obla,ned a
divorce from him, and fora while had
employment in Washington. After re-
turning west she was remarked TO Car
penter. The little daughter Anna went
to live with her aunt, Mrs. Shultz, who
was very fond of her. Mrs. Shultz be-
came member of Colonel Bakers fam
lily in San Francisco, and, taking advan.
tage of her husbands absence in min.
ing town, procured a divorce and &C.
companied Colonel Baker 70 Washing.
ton Soon afterward Colonel Tom Fitch,
silver-tongued orator of the Pacific slope.
became enamored of Mrs: Shultz and
married her after having procured. d.
vorce from his wife.
Like her mother and her aunt, Anna
Carpenter has her charms. Some time
ago San Francisco doctor or dentist
fell desperately in love with her, al
though he was at the time the husband
Of one wife. Through the influence Of
Colonel Fitch he procured a divorce and
married his new love at Virginia City
Afterward the wronged wife had tie
proceedings of court granting him di-
vorce set aside and this annuled ais
marriage with Anna Carpenter. She
has since made conquest of larger game.
Her -siations with Senator Fair
were the grounds for the
divorce recently obtained by Mrs. Fair.
The ten-millionaire is now free to marry
his bonnie Annie, who is said to be
pretty as well as viyacious.

RAILROAD ITEMS.

The track of the Southern Pacific is now laid to a point three miles this side of Sacra- mento Springs. There are from eight to ten miles more to lay to reach the river, and much of it is very heavy work. The company, however, will make short work of it as they have $500 Chinamen at work grading.
 The A. & P. railroad company's officials are getting in hurry to lay track. They have been putting down from two to two and half miles per day. The carpenters could not keep out Tof the wly with the bridges, so shoo-fying and plugging had to be resorted to. Only about one half of the bridges are completed, the culverts or small bridges are cobbled up with ties and rails and run over and left to be bridged here after. The isygs bridges are shoofiied or run around.

We find Kaiser Conrad and partners store, old mess- tent and sanctum will have to be moved, as it is right on our lizard trail and also ob- structs our view If they kick any we shall run the railroad around them and then the only communication open will be by steam CT from Connor's well. The Grand Hotel at Bingman without top or bottom with loop holes for windows, we have secured for a lizard grooming yard. The rent is low and lease long. Orders hSve been issued to avoid all trespass on what was once the old military reservation at BeRl Springs. We will not run any risk of our stock getting through that picket fence. We will not as. sume any responsibility for toll or water tax. We are going to get our stock natur- alized, 30 our reptiles can vote by proxy or otherwise at the next county convention and they will be instructed to vote solid for the contractors aspirrnt for the legislature who was left out in the cold last fall, but we shall insist on having our inspectors and judges of election, as we would much rather trust the honesty of a third class reptile than the average truthful William with the spirit of Democracy dyed in his wool.

RECOGNIZING THF FACT,

Albuquerque business men recognize tue fact that hereafter all the trade from the mining camps on the A. & P railroad and throughout Mohave county, Arizona, is in their reach, and but very little effort On their part will give them full possession of the field. Not less than a dozen different ad- vertisements from our business men were sent to the MINER at Mineral Park yester. day. Heretofore most of the goods at Min eral Park and surrounding camps have been sent east from San Francisco, and thence by rail, steanbout and waG ons to their final destination. Any man with very small amount of husiness knowledge will Rqt dis pute the fact that Albuquerque will be able to deliver these same goods cheaper and in less time when the railroad is completed. - Albuquerque Democrat, March 5.
