Last Sunday evening Rev. Welsher::
of the Baptist church, closed his first
lecture, of series, on ''Joseph, the
resOlute young man." This lecture
was ably prepared and delivered with
much feeling and eloquence. As his
words rolled out from the mouth as
from a silver tongue he held his large
audience spell bound from the begin
ming to the end. Next Sunday evening
his lecture will be- Miriam, the
sweet singer of Israel" Services 7:45.
We are requested to state by Com
missioner Bricker that he did not intend
to impute any blame to Commissioner
Blevins in his article ITO the Citizens
of Dickinson County," to be found on
our first page, and he trusts that the
reader will not so conStrue it; indeed,
he had ordered the paragraphs referring
to Mr.. Blevins stricken out, but too
late for the REFLECTOR, as the first
side containing the article was worked
off at the press before the order was
received.

A visit to Mineral Park this week afforded us the pleasure of feasting our eyes on familiar faces which have been gone from our gaze for long time past. Bob Steir, the popular sheriff oi Mohavc county, sits in his easy chair awaiting business, and wears that beeming smile which is the same though he were taking in a million dollars per day. Bucksbaum, the county recorder, we found pour. ing over his books with that same close attention as If his office was flooded with new deeds and mining locations Capt. White moves about with the alacrity of a youth of eigh- teen summers, and although trade is unusually light, he proposes to stay with the Park, on the ground of com pulsion. Christy wants to know what the "infamous Thirteenth legislature was made up of, man or beast" and the Mohave county court bill meets with but little approval among the citizens. Eb. Williams and J. J.
 Hyde are wrestling with the Miner, and how they get so readable news paper where there is so much quiet ness and dullness, is a mystery. All look for better times, and we hope their expectations will be realized.

 ED. CHAMPION: Being aware that your popular and interesting paper has a number of subscribers in this city, I think perhaps it will not be impos- ing upon your columns to describe through them an event that rarely occurs in our little city, and which prompted me to write you this short letter containing as we'll as the description of the event, beautiful display of bad grammar and spelling, The event before mentioned was real flesh and blood wedding, which came off on the evening of the ISth, the contracting parties in the perform ance being MT. Samuel J. Riley, who has charge of some mining property in the vicinity of Prescott, and Miss Clara Nicholas, who loved the horny handed miner sufficiently we'll to jour ney all the way from the state of Indiana to join her affianced and be one of the principals of the occasion. The passenger train due here at 10 o'clock came rolling in on time with the expectant bride aboard, who was met at the depot by her prospective husband and of course, as all true lovers do on such occasions, there was surplus of kisses and embraces given, which caused crusty old bachelors like A. G. Oliver, who was present, blush and smile and VOW that the next best thing after having car load of freight forwarded, would be get spliced. The happy couple proceeded immediately to the parlor of the Cottage Hotel, where Judge Wilson was awaiting patiently to perform his first marriage ceremony. Immediately upon enter ing the parlor Judge Wilson arose and asked them if they were ready for the proceeding and the reply being in the affirmative, the ceremony commenced. After two or three hours the judge managed to get their names repeated several times and the necessary ques- tions "Will you take, etc, etc., and the requisite replies returned, and then throwing all the dignity officially invested in his position, he very sol emnly pronounced them "man and wife" Thus ended the second event oi that kind in Ash Fork. Mir. and Mrs. Riley departed early the next morning in carriage especially brought over for their conveyance, for their pleasant home, which no doubt is pre- pared 10 receive them. May happiness b. their continually through lif..
 Among the guests present we noticed Messrs. Sanford, Mal!oy, Furrow, pr. Bishop and his charming daughter Clara, she being the only lady present besides the bride. M. l.. Wood, the proprietor of the hotel, in good taste and politeness, introduced all present. There were several others present, but the writer of this was so absorbed in the proceedings, that he did not mo- tiCe them. FL NAHDI.

MINERAL BEET RAILROdD.

We had an interview with A. C.. Pendleton, in charge of the Mineral Belt Railroad surveying party, now in Flagstaff, and from him we gather that the road is to be built, but on ac- count of the bad weather, the actual work cannot be commenced until about May Ist. Next Monday the surveying party will begin reconnoi- tering line out about fifty miles, be- tween Pine Springs and Stevenson's Lake, for the purpose of ascertaining what prospect there would be to get a station at a near point to Jerome, and wagon road from thence to that place. It is the intention of the com. pany to build to Stoneman's Lake and beyond this season, and make a station there, which will supply the Verde and Jerome country. The sur veyors have been lying idle on ac- count of the bad weather for the past week, but will now undertake to ex- anime the country via Strawberry Valley and Pine Creek, with view of getting line that way, to avoid tuunneling in the vicinity of General Springs. It is generally conceded that much more direct route can be made from Flagstaff than from any other point on the A. x P. railroad for fifteen miles on either side of us, also having the advantage of passing through the timber belt. By the time the engineers are through with this work, which will occupy three or four weeks, the work of grading is expec ted to commence. It will certainly not be advisable to commence before that time. MT. Eddy is issuing his orders from Boston, and will return in April. As the wagon roads and trails are now. supplies could not be delivered six miles from town, by pack animals or otherwise. It is a natural route from Flagstaff to Stone mans Lake, and undoubtedly will be settled upon in Boston as the line of the road. A bona fide contract has been let for one hundred miles of rails to a Johnstown, Pa., iron firm, to be delivered in May.

4. C. OLIVIER 6 cos NEW FOR
 WARDLNG HOUSE.

While. in Ash Fork, on Thursday last, we took occasion to call upon our friend, A. G. Oliver, leading merchant of northern Arizona, who recently moved into his new quarters occupied as a store and forwarding house. The building is 6oxsa, and is located near the railroad track, con. venient for unloading freight from the cars. Mir. Oliver concucts an exten- sive forwarding trade at Ash Fork, the enormity of which can scarcely be realized by those unacquainted with his business. The consignments for Prescott, Jerome and the Black Hills mining camp, keep teams constantly on the move, and the large amount of business transacted daily at this estab- lishment is xcredit to the manager.
 MT. Oliver is one of the foremost commercial men of our territory, and IS looked upon with confidence and esteem by the public generally.

FAILURE OF M4RSHfLL WOODS,
 OF dSH FORK.

PREscoTr, A. T., March aa, 'Ss. A. E. Fay, Esq, Flagstaff, Ari-
 zona.
 DEAR SIR: I am directed to say that Marshall Woods, of Ash Fork, Ariz., on the Ioth inst. made an as- signment to, A. G. Oliver, of Oliver x Co.,, Ash Fork, for the benefit of his creditors. His assets inventory $S,oo3. .98, of which S5,ooo at least are available. Hts liabilities amounted to s4,o97.4S, of which sI.a7+43 are preferred. Of his assets, S3,6a5.99 consist of horses, wagons, black and wagon smith stock, $4,S67.99 are ac- counts and $4o8. % are bills receiva. ble.
 This assignment is bona hde and brought about through stagnation of business, with the fact that Staab &  Co.,, of Albuquerque, N. M., had brought suit before Justice of the Peace and attached property amount. ing to S5,ooo.oo. which if sold in these hard times would not bring in cash enough to pay their bill, which was sa93.oo This attachment was dissolved and deed of assignment immediately delivered to MT. Oliver, who is prudent business man and will manage the estate so that even those creditors who were present at the time feel that every dollar will be realized. Very Respectfully,
 E. M. SANFORD.

w. J. Mulvenon, our popular sher- if, has been in town this week, on official business. Billy's popularity with the people of Yavapai county is sufficient evidence of his efficiency as an officer, and the affairs of his office at the present time is additional evi- dence as to his competency and worth in the responsible position he occu- pies. He stands better show for re- election than any sheriff our county has had for years.
