Bradshaw tmine:1-

Old boy Brad has again dent0astra4 ted his usual luck, for he was never. known to lose 8 pointin any game. i His many friends in the city thought he had made a mistake in accepting the finale" contract to. .Bishee, but they were mistaken, it just put him in the humor to take larger contract, Qor every one knows that Brad is lucky.) This time instead of being finale" contract, it was a "female" contract. On his last trip to Bisbee he caught quite cold which nnads him feel quite stiff, but not so with Brad; it was just what he needed in his new business.

The NupsiaEs Of Mrs. Frankie Stump and eS. .. Bradshaw
 Last Evening.

Last evening the residence of Mrs Frankie Stump was :he scene of g brilliant wedding, in which our well known fellow townsman G. s. Brad shaw and Mrs Frankie Stump of this city, were the principal actors.
 The large parlor was tastefully decorated with flowers, and the scene was made cheerful by the galaxy of youth and beauty that had gathered to witness the ceremony which would unite two loving young hearts and two charming young people in the holy bonds of matrimony.
 At precisely 8 :45 the wedding party entered the parlor, Mrs. Stump being accompanied by her bridesmaid, Mi s Taft, and MT. Bradshaw, by his best man MT. Andy Ritter As the we'd ding party reached the center of the room, the Rev. G. L. Pearson stepped forward, and in h;s usual impressive manner, made the couple man and wife.
 Immediately after the ceremony the young couple and their invited guests sat down to an elegant wedding supper, and the health of the newly
  welded pair was drank again and again in bumpers of sparkling Roderer. MT. Bradshaw is one of Tombstone's oldest and best citizens, and his genial manner, and many good traits of character have made him hosts of friends in this camp.
 The bride is also an old resident of the camp and is a handsome and ac- complishcd lady, and her many virtues have endeared her to her many friends in this city who are legion.
 THE TOMBSTONE tenders it's congra- tulations to the happy couple and trusts that many "little stumps" may spring up in their path through life.

 William Elinger received letter to-day giving the details of the trag edy. MT. Ellinger and companion named Hummer were on their way to. SprinservilIe and had stopped at Cienega AmarlllI for dinner. After dinner they went into another cabin where Renfro was. A man named Craig had it Is stated at the instigation of Renfro, gone some weeks before on Cottonwood ranch which Mr. I,aac Ellinger bought it eighteen months 70 had it homesteaded according to law and had taken up his residence there. Mir. Eilinger said his brother had taken all the necessary steps to secure his property and to avoid difi- culty had offered to arbitrate the mat ter.
 Mir Ellinger had never had any di ffi culty with Renfro who is a cowboy and native of Texas. Renfro said to Mir. Ellinger while they were in the cabin:
 q understood you sail if had be,n living in your house at Cottonwood you would have made me pull down the cabin"
 T don't care whether you do or not said Mir. Elliuger at which with an oath, Renfro, seized his pistol and shot MT. EllinSer through the right lu g.
 Dr. Sherman says that Mir. E finger made no resistance as he thought that Renfro was trying to "bluff' him and he had no idea that he would shoot.
 Hummer shot at Renfro but missed him and he then escaped on good horse.
 Isaac Clinton who was in the room at the time said the killing was mcsi unjustifable.

As this is the time OF year man,
townships are discussing the subject
Of building school houses and otllel
subjects connected thereaith, / deem
it my duty as a citizen, if not III
Snpt- OF Schools to ofrey a few sug.
gestions. First, as this il q prairie
countrg and the settlers quite scat
tering, it is very difficult for chill
dren to attend school during the
winter season without real suffering.
Second, the taxable valuation is not
much yet to what it win be when
the land is all proved up on and inn
proved, consequently school tx
must he high. The question natu-
rally rises how shall We provide
schools for the most children at
the least expense and at the same
time make them Of the most yaluei
l think we ought to look carefully
at The value OF our schools, for 4
poor school is very dear at any
price. Think In most districts Il
would be better to have school in
spring and fall and not during
winter.
AS an illustration, Bristol town.
ship bull: seven school houses for a
little less than sI4o0. They are
iex22 feet with eight foot posts,
good frame, sheeted, papeqed, sided
and painted, and are ready for lath-
ing and p~lastering or ceiling. Al
most any township can afford to
build four such school houses, and
by properly locating them scholars
viii hardly ever be obliged to 20
more than two miles TO school.
The houses are comfortable to hold
school in till it Is zero weather. In
several Of our townships scholars are
Obliged to 60 three and four miles if
they go to school at all. BY build
ing school houses similar to these
and holding school as suggested,
most Of tho children viii BIZ able 10
attend school from four to six
q
months during the year, and the
cost will not be 30 great Int every
can provide and maintain
such schools. Then they can be
run with less expense during the
warm season than in winter. Wages
paid lady teachers are less than male
teachers, and they are usually more
successful in primary schools. The
,uei burned during the winter Is no
mall ITEM.
In q few years when the country
becomes more thickly settled and It
= found necessary to have school
the winter, these houses can
finished and the cost will not
come so nearly at one time.
