CASA GRANDE, Ariz., June ?, 1890.
 As usual in Arizona in the warn
 season, travel is very light, arrivals, lik' angels visits, being few and far betweel
 in comparison with the steady stream that flows on to the country where It | cooler weather. Strangers from coolel climate, although finding it rather warn are surprised to find it is no worse are delighted with the cool nights here and that there are no mosquitos to dis turb their repose, and that so peaceful a country is Arizona, that they may sleep in safety with their doors and win dows open. Plenty of ice too, for cool ing drinks, and two or three tunes a week the town revels in ice cream every restaurant having their days for dispensing the luxury to warm and thirsty people. It is possible now to batbe at reasonable prices, bathing be- ing considered here in Casa Grande as one of the necessities of life, and al though luxury, is no longer held at prices not to be possible for any one not a banker or a drummer. One of my pet hobbies. or vagaries, if you will, Is that since cleanliness is next to godli- ness, people would be better every way if it were possible to be clean, in fact, if bathing were a fact of easier accomplishment. A bath-tub is as necessary as bible in every home and family, summer and winter the year around. No matter if ones clothes are not so fine, so long as the wearer, like ones conscience Is kept pure ard clean. Sc, Gs bathing is an assured fact here, We naturally know that people here are all the better.
 As for pews items, we have had a change in Wells, Fargo < Co. and the postofiice. Mr. Thomas Tonlinson hay ing received the appointment. We shall miss our townsman, John Loss, who has held the position for so long and whose business will not permit his attention to anything outside of hls mining business. The position being one of responsibility, being unable to give It his personal attention. he has resigned. The office will be moved shortly from the 1ld accustomed qua rters at the depot to romlison's store, which will necessitate more building one would suppose.
 It Is said the $. r. depot Is to be en- Iarged for freight facilities, and that an addition of eighty feet will be added, besides further building. This, ii so, lugurs well for Casa Grande,
 The pay car went through yesterday md the Mexicans who drew money leld services in the evening, at one of he saloons, and had high jinks nearly III night. The lean and hungry numer JUS deputies hovered around like bug ards. and reaped a small harvest, al most too small to be divided up one would think. Phonie Price had gone if to bed like a sensible fellow, not car ng to put the county to more than ne essary expense, although ready at all ines, if occasion demands. 4 Mexican family has camped in close | to the jail, probably for con enience sake and to be near Tn case the l husband and father is again incarcerat- d, which was the case for the term of a ew days, when the family aforesaid lade themselves quite at home, slept on he ground, and hung their clothes cn he bushes.
 Some beautiful horses for Globe pri- ate owners passed through here yester- ay. One narrowly escaped injury by citing frightened and falling off the epot platform, in disembalking from he car. w. R. Stone, of Sloan and Stone, Of florence, Attorney -at-Law, passed trough en route to Tucson, and is look lg well.
 G. T. Breese. agent for the nurseries of iuenther, of Rochester, \. Y. is back ,om Florence. Large orders for trees nd vines for thls place will give good esults in a short time, and help to lake Casa Grande beautiful place. All esidents on the street south of the de- ot will plant trees along the side ak next Fall.
