IRON ORE FROM LOUISIANA.

A gentleman largely interested ig
iron manufacture in Pittsburg and else
where was in st. Louis few days ago
on what will appear to many like a
strange mission. He wanted to arrange
for the transportation of crude iron ore
from the mouth of the Red river-away
down the Mississippi-to the city of
Pittsburg. 1t will be news to most peo-
pie that there is is iron ore in the Red
river country. Yet it seems that at
Jefferson, La, one hundred and fifty
miles above the mouth of Red river the
finest of iron ore-the kind used in the
manufacture of Bessemer steel-is
found in almost unlimited quantities.
1t can be mined and loaded on steam
boats for seventy cents a ton. Its
transportation to the mouth of Red
river is an easy matter.
The gentleman already mentioned
conferred with Captain Thorwegan, of
the Chouteau, as to the best and cheap
est way of getting the ore from the
mouth of Red river up to Pittsburg.
Captain Thorwegan advised the build
ing of an elevator at the mouth of Red
river. Into this the ore could be load
ed from the Red river boats, and from
this ii could be loaded into empty coal
barges on their way up the Mississippi
and thence on up the Ohio. This plan
will probably be adopted.-St. Louis

An immense assemblage of coIored
people were at the depot last Sunday
evening to meet Gov. Warmotb, who
came on the northbound passenger
at six o'clock. For several days pre-
vious preparations for grand barbe-
cue were being made. The report got
out among the darkies that in addition
to whole drove Of cattle being killed
and cooked up, the Democrats would
have five thousand dollars on hand
Monday to "buy out niggels with" The
consequence was that every day last
week benighted leaders Of the Republic
cans party were putting in an appear
ance, while the humber class gath
cred as thick as peas in a pot around
the barbecue hole. For TWO weeks in
advance the colored band "tooted and
blew" until 10 o'clock overy night lead
ing one to believe that Warmoth would
receive musical treat such as few are
permitted to enjoy. But, 10! a change
came over our blissful anticipat;ons. Our
colored musicians took q practical look
at things, and we suppose thought that
while the balance Of their kind were
admiring Warmoth and getting pull
at tbe $4,000 Democratic Doodle
they ought to be making something
themselves. So, when applied to to
furnish dulcet music for the occasion,
they demanded forty dollars for their
services. That put an end to the music;
not single drum, not bugle note
welcomed "Mr. Warpath", as some of
the colored women called him, on bis
arrival, or accompanied him as he wend-
ed his way to the hotel followed by bis
colored friends. On Monday he made
very plausible speech, dotted here and
there with bis time promises of JUS
tice and leniency toward the negro. He
was followed by local speakers, pEomi
nent among whom was his honor Aleck
McGaffey who pawded the earth like
bobtail COW in fly time, and dealt out
gas enough to justify the town 10 giving
him lifetime contract for lighing il
up. He is like Walmoth's votes under
the Nichols majority--rather hard to
find just now.
The barbecue would have come of in
grand style had not the scarcity of
beef on toast caused such confusion
In their ranks. We are told that the
management had to lock themselves up
with it, and throw ii out that all hands
might havea grab at it. In fact, things |
got desperate. One negro, we ale told,
grabbed hunk of meat, and on being |
hotly pursued by hungry crowd, ran
into a thirty foot well and came |
very near drowning.
After the hash, the Doodle was next
in order for the "coon,n but as it was
nowhere to be found, he was disap
pointed and sad indeed.

LOGU4rs0Us PRISONER.

w R. McNeil, an enterprising youth Of twenty-one; who loasts of great familiarity with Arizona jails. and who recently took French leave of the Phoe- nix cooler, and in order to facilitate his flight stole F. r. Kellner's horse, was pursued by James Thomas, of Florence, and overtaken near Duncan, N. N. On the return to Phoenix he was hospltably entertained in the Globe lookup from Tuesday evening until Wednesday morning.
 By invitation Of Deputy Sheriff Hammon we visited the jail, and npon coming within ear-shot of the cage, were gratifed to know that his bird was musical and had metal in his heels. He sang:
 Dance, dance, as long az you can,
 Wemust travel through life, but why make
 dead march of it?
 The fine linen of state may sit well upon
 man,
 But lis pleasant, methinks, just to tuB
 out the starch off. ?
 And at the instant of his complet- ing the first stanza of the tyre he sad he would have to forgo singing the re- maining one hundred and seventy-two verses as bis break fast had been an- nounced.
 Upon inquiry, he said he was born m Massachusetts, and that the down was yet upon his cheek, when he had sown his wild oats, and while brush ing them in he came under the observ- ant ege of those who were tempted by rewards, and who, consequently, short ened bis tether and brought him with m the compass of a jail Sticking out his feet he said, You observe l am ieweled, but that Is the reward of Ylr- tue and the desire to shed joy in the household.
 But grace before meat; Tn obliged for the visit, but have not the heart to detain you longer, Ta-ta we may meet again, if not in this mundane sphere, certainly, beyond the blue, the mild ethereal sky. I leave for Phe- nix as soon as 1 have had breakfast. Any commands for the garden city? Shake.

 brated on Saturday evening, January 14th, at the residence of the Superin- tendent of the Old Dominion Copper Company. Globe.
 The wedding vas most pleasing in all It's appointments and cn scale of munifcence corresponding to the inn portance of the event, the contracting parties being highly esteemed Tn the community. The bride, although re- gently from Bakersfield, California, resided in Globe, with her sister; Mrs W. H. Cook, for several years, and has a large -rircle of friends here. The groom, a native of New Bedford, Massachusetts, during hls long resi- dence in Globe, has held continuously the responsible position of head smell ter at the Old Dominion Company's works.
 More than fifty invitations had been issued for tbe wedding, and at the hour appointed for the ceremony to take place, tbe parlors were thronged with guests on the qui vivo of expec- tancy. Shortly thereafter the bridal party entered and took their positions in the north parlor, the contracting parties being attended by Miss Flora Wood, as bridesmaid, and Mr. Jos. H. Hamill, as groomsman. Rev. F. W. Downs performed the ceremony winch was none the less impressive by being brief. Atits conclusion congratula- tons were extended 10 the newly welded eonnle. and a short interval spent in social converse and in view ing the wedding presents which were numerous. Supper was then an nounced and the entire assemblage sat down to an elaborate rerast, which was discussed with evident relish.
 At late hour the guests took their departure. afler again expressing their good wishes for the prosperity of the happy couple. They have set sail on the sea of matrimony under favorable auspices and the BELT wishes them lon voyage.

Read Ihe Death Roll

Which the bills of mortality of any large city may be ftly designated, and you will find that renal and vesical maIadies. that is to say, those that effect the kid ncys or bladder, have remarkable prom
 inenco-we had almost said-preponder- ance. Bright's disease and diabetes in the chronic stage are rarely cured, and gravel, catarrh of the bladder and enure- sis, slay many. Yet at the outset, when the trouble merely amounts to inactivity of the organs involved, the danger may be nulifed by that pleasant renal tonic and diuretic, Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters, which imparts the requisite amount of tone to the organs, without over-ex- citing them, and the use of which is con- venient, and involves no elaborate prep- aratlon. Dyspepsia, a usual concomitant of renal complaints, and debility, which they invariably produce, are remedied
 by it. So also are constipation, mala- rial, rheumatic and hetfotis ailments
