CASA GRANDE, Sept. 90.
 It is warm weather again-decidedly in contrast to that of last week.
 School opened this morning with a good attendance. AS the parents in general have decided to adopt the old fashioned rule that if child is punish ed at school he shall also be punished at home, there is no doubt but the school will be a success, so far as good order is { concerned, and without which nothing could be accomplished Mir. Robinson, formerly of Tempe, is the teacher, and arrived recently, accompanied by his wife.
 Our Deputy Sherif's badge is none too big this morning. an assistant depu- ty having arrived. Dick is now the hap py and proud fathor of two fine boys. Lucien Walker, of the Vekol mine, arrived last week from California. An informal reception was held in honor If q beautiful boy, who was exhibited with much pride by his fond father Mir Walker and family have gone to the Ve- kol; Judge John D. Walker remains here
 A new windmill, an Aermotor, has been erected by Mir. Hoff, the agent, on the property of Mr. Thomas Tomlinson. It looks well, and if q success, as it un- doubtedly will be, others will probably follow. There is nothing like good ex- ample.
 Two new frame buildings are nearly finished; although we are having a build ing boom, the town IS comparatively quiet Several people are absent, and Tn small place every one counts.
 The crickets are still here, and make night merry with their chirpings. Nei- ther do they hide ID the hearth or chim ney corners, but come out boldly and give fine opportunities for studying their musical methods. One cannot see that they do any harm, although so hila- rious; meantime the chickens live high, but do not seem to diminish the beseig- ing army, andss.the crickets continue to give free concerts. One at my elbow, who has been calmly looking on, has just given two notes, as of protest against such personalities. I do not think they came down in the rain storm, though 1t rains so seldom here, it is not to be wondered at that people get strange ideas. have known some peo- pie to see snakes when it didn't rain l But since San Francisco suffered sim liar invasion of crickets recently, we may infer that they have come south | from that place to spend the winter here-perhaps.
 A new store and saloon have gone up at the Monarch camp. It is as yet a | tent house, which will be replaced no | doubt by a more substantial edihce if | events justify. It is rumored that the | mill at the Silver King is to start up | Some machinery went up to the Crispin | mine, recently, which Is also near the | Silver King, which speaks well for that | locality.
 Frank Souva, of the Gilt Edge Saloon, has returned, after a long absence.
 Charlle Wilson is also back again.
 Judge Marshal's family is expected | soon from California.
 Numbers of Indians on horseback are | passing through en route from Sacaton | south ward-bound, and stopping to wa ter their horses at the wells of friendly persons here. The recent | edict of keeping Indians out of town af- ter sun down IS a wise move. No good | Indians care to stay in town after dark The Enterprise is mistaken Tn thinking the rule to keep Indians out after dark originated with the deputy sheriff, as it was during his absence in California recently, that it was first enforced.
 The Justice of the Peace and Consta- ole have heretofore been considered sufficient for keeping order, as the citi- zens are law abiding, and peaceable
