M Earth, ot the firm of Earth 6 Wilson, spent two days in town thi week, and was pleased with the loca tion and prospects of our town.
 Ralph Osborn is the proprietor O the Clipper Saloon and Club Room! Tn west end, and is too well known te need any extended endorsement from us. Heis slowly recovering from ; serious .gunshot wound, and we hope
 soon to see him able to lay away hl'
 sticks for good.
 Ed. Stahle, well-known as tonso rial artist, will be glad to see his old friends and patrons at his first class shop with Gregg & Gregg. opposite
 the depot. Ed. is so well-known on
 the line of the A. & P, that no ex
 tended introduction from us is requir- ed.
 Laughlin & Son, successors to John l Drain, have large stock of fine whiskies, brandes and cigars, and make speciality of hot drinks. Stran. gers and visitors in town should call on "Uncle Laughlin," where they will find hearty welcome by "real 'uld Irish gentleman" and will re- celve square treatment.
 Hon. G C. Bruce is visiting his niece, Mrs. Spafford. While here Mr Bruce will look the county over with view of returning here to re- main permanently. MT. Bruce came to the Pacific slope in 1852 ana was Tn Tucson in 1858. He will be val uable citizen in our county, and we hope he will return.
 A juvenile class is being instructed in vocal music one evening in each week, by MT. Mccormack, Newell's s right hand man.

 Benson is without a church or preacher, and the Herald says If some missionary society will only send them some good old Jealous bible pounder, who don't believe in the revised ed. : ton of the old or new scriptures, we'll size him up, and if he fills the bill he will be taken care of, without any divy from the missionary fund, which IS the way Tucson supports its protes- tant clergymen.
 A. q. Hoover, at one time agent for John R. Price x Co.,, at the rail. road terminus, but more recently of the land department of the A. & P. railway, is our local ticket and freight agent at this station. The Major is Il veteran in the railway service, and is much esteemed for his obligin. and courteous treatment of the patrons of the road, and for his genial social qualities.
 Col. ]. B. Thomas, the special gov ernmtnt agent for timbered lands, re- sides in Flagstaff. The Colonel has chosen this locality for his headquar. ters from the fact that be has as much and perhaps more to look after Tn the interests of hls deparment in this vi- clnlty as any other single locality un- der his charge. Colonel Thomas has the reputation of being wide awake to the interests of our universal rela- tive, Uncle Sam.
 Jessie Gregg's place is centrally To- cated and stocked with the finest liquors and cigars that can be procured in the trade. His place IS cozy and complete in its appointments and con, ducted on square prinei pies.

Per haps Jim Black can number among his friends and acquaintances both in tenderfeet and old-timers, as many men as any resident in this portion of northern Arizona. Careful and at tentlve drivers are furnished tourists desiring to visit adjacent points of in terest in. the surrounding country.
