". E. STEVENS,
Hnle Ns Nnfch.

A question of fact seems to be a mat te- o' dispute in relation to La Venta- na. Several very creditable gentlemen, among whom are c. c. Jones, Ira Carter and John Hartt, affirm that La ventana is a hole Others such as R. N. Wllkin, c. II. Barnhart and the CITIZEN reporter assert to the contrary. Both sides claim Co have been through the vexed aper- tu-e, and one says t is hole and the other rhH' l is a notch. As the CITIZEN reporter has been there ii will be very hard Co argue him out of his senses. As t IS only a fourteen mile drive from Tucson via Fort Lowell 10 the mouth Of PCt-hole or Nentana canyon, the curios- lty 0i any To k1ow winch side is right can be easily satisfied. From Fort Lowell the route is direct. and a buggy can be easily driven into the canyon. An hours's climb to the top of the bluffs on the eastern eide will take one to B spot where a good view can be had. It vill then be appsr nt to the most incred- Ul1us thEt the sketch in the CITIZEN office IS correct one.

FOur Living Husbands.

New York Letter m Philadelphia Record
 [ understand that Miss Ellen Terry is rather disappointed that she has not seen more of the society of New York ladies since her arrlval here. At dIn- uer some few nights ago, where the wife of the host was the culy lady present, she did not hesltate to express her dIs- appointment at having met SO few New York ladies. I have been furthermore told that NIT. living and Mir. Barrett, whO were invited 10 spend the day at a country place near New York, wrote to inquire if the lad es-meaning Mrs. Barrett and Miss Terry-mIght &C., company them, and that the answer was tha' they might come, but that the ladies lf the house would not be at home This ls rather hard Cn Mrs. Barrett, who Is oue of the best of her sex-a woman as virtGous as she is delightful. For my part l must say that, i. l received Mir. Irving. would receive Miss Terry. I don't believe in making fish of one and flesh of another. If Miss Terry IS not a person to receive into ones household, then neither is MT. Irving. To be sure, Miss Terry has had good many hus- bands, all of whom are living, I believe. ] believe there are four of them. But some women have a genus for husbands, and l suppose she is one of them. Her first husband was the famous English po-trsit-painter Watts. who I believe has been bnighted for his artistic attain ments: but there was a divorce, and Mrs Terry marrled again.

From the London Herald.l
 Some correspondence has recently teen published as to the exact words of Eeison's famous signal at the battle of Trafalgar. Mir. J. V.

THE MEXICAN CENTRAL.
What Is said iu Boston-Es-Iy Ccmple-
 ton Expected

The nearness Of the completion oi the main line Oi the Mexican Central railroad. l2l4 miles from Fl Paso Go the City Of Mexico, will come as a surprise. says the Boston Transcript, to many not intimately acquainted with the rapid march ot this great work The poIular estimate of the time when the fret rails would unite the City of Mexico and the United States has been the summer of 1884 But lately the Nexicans have talked of grand opening celebration May 9th. national day to Mexico. and the rate Of progress upon the two ends now hastealng to junction at Fresnilll indicates a union of the Tails some weeks earlier. The management makes no au- nOuncement as yet. as ralls are in trans port upon the ocean, and there are al- ways unforeseen delay s in the completi u of so great an enterprise.
 But General Manager Fink, of the southern division, says he will toe at EresnIllo, A miles out from the city of Mexico, by the end of the year. He has crossed the great Encarnacion river. :l}5 miles out and had laid SIS miles on the Sth of October. This is l6 miles. be- yond the junction of the proposed i1ne from IamplcO winch ls to cTuss Mexico east and west and leaves Mr. Fink but 96 miles more to build.
 General Manager Robinson of the northern division was 53l miles out from Fl Paso October ,, having 20S miles c. be finished and the track wHs gUirr down at the rate of two nIles per day. NIT. Robinson says he is aiming to te si the junction in February. There is no hard work between the ends oi the tracks and If the rails now en route arrive safe ly, the chances of delay will be reduced to minimum. he ear y spring of lSSi should see the joining of the main line tracks It IS pleasant to note iu these days of excessive outlsys upon under estimates, thst notwithstanding the comparatively unknown character of the geography ot Central Mexico, the estl- mates of the cost of the northern divl- sion as made by President Nickers1n are being justified. Full returns from Mr. Fink sre expected later.-Chihua- hua News.

CINCINNATI RED.
4 Youthful Tramp Who Wanted 10 See
 Casey.

The other day a decidedly youthful looking blonde appeared in the sheriifs office, and asked to see Casey.
 "Whst do you want to see Casey for!' inquired Sheriff Paul
 "I knew him at Big Springs and Col oradO City"
 "How did you know him Gt Colorado City? believe I saw you in jail there, said the Sheriff, as he gave the blonde closer inspection.
 "No, you didn't was the tramps quick reply.
 "Wel, I did" said Paul, "and you were being tried for burglary
 "I was in there on a misdemeanOr,' said the tramp Tn a confessional tone of voice, as he went out, not anxious tO h. terview Paul any longer.
 Last night the blonde was pulled ID with a lot of other fellows and luo geG lu the city jail.
 s'There Is Pinkey in jail" sad Chiel Buttner, "who was a companl Ot Casey's in Colorado City"
 He is Cincinnati Red, replied UIe ut the tramps, wberent Cincinnati Red blushed all over his face and neck.
 Did you know Casey In Colorado!' inquired the CITIZEN scribe.
 "Yes," replied Cincinnati Red, -I knew him there four months in the jail. ] was there on charge Of burglary. Casey had knocked man down and robbed him at Big Springs. There were eight of us in the same cell, which vas ouly sixteen feet long. When We slept there was not much room. and We had to lie down spoon fashion. When any fellow wanted to turn over be would knock on the floor and holler roll and We would all turn at once. We had some shanks hld in -he IaIl, and they starved us ill one fellow told. We would not let him out of the cell after that. Casey came near killing jaIloT Robinson one day. He had him down and would not let hIn go ill the guard put a revolver right up 10 his head. After that they chained him heavily. When Casey was arrested st Big Springs he could easily have gotten away Gs the ficer was so drunk that he fell once and Casey picked him up Casey danced two sets that same night. They took him over to Colorado City because there is no jail at Big Springs.
 The people there all told Casey he would get clear. When they took hlm to Colorado City they went into a saloon to get drInk, NheI Deputy Sheriff Gaines, of Fl Paso, told Deputy Sheriff Morrow, who had Casey in charge, that there was reward for him. We all thought when they took Casey out Ui jail to give him to Paul that he was Co- ing free. Casey had e five week. growth of whiskers, about sn inch long. The light side of his mUstache does not grow fast, and that is why be does not try to cultivate 1t. Casey was a packer once in the army In Arizona. He was not a regular soldier. He had partner named Pat MahCuey, Pat NolihAn or Manning or Bill Miller. He went by all these names. Casey seemed Co 5e anxious to know what had become o, him. Casey had been arrested lt |. Paso for the reward against him, but had escaped"
 "Is that allyou know about Casey :'
 ''Ies, that Is all He doesu't talk an. about his past life.

Woman at Horse Sale.

From the Burlington. Yt., Free Press.l
 "The women, bless their little hearts, % said Mr. Drew, of the Van Ness House -"the women can he just as sharp in a trade as the men. One winter I went up t1 kichford to buy a horse. l found 1t all right, but at the time l was making 8 trade with the nun who owned 1t his wife kept raising an awful fuss about selling It at the figure l offered. If the horse was sold, she said, how would the poor children get tc school, she would like Co know; they wouldn't have the horse Co carry them, and 1t was too far to walk. Finally, however, We made q trade, and hitched :he horse in n sleigh io drive home. i jumped into the sleigh, but the horse wouldn't start. l touched Lim with tine whip, hut he merely turned around and fixed a sad, inquirinS gaZe upon me. I touched him again, with the same result. Then 1 hit him little harder, and what do you think be dids He jumped several feet into the air. I thought 1 was going mp Tn a balloon. And when he struck the ground be started of at q regular Maud $. gait The fact was, you see, that horse had never been hitched single before in his i:ie.
