Death of a chicago Broker.

CHICAGO, March limo. t. Lester,
a wealthy stock broker. died to-day. He
has been an invalid two or three years on
account of too close application to bust
ness A couple of weeks ago he started
for a Southern health resort but became
a%larminely Ill and was brought home.
Some of his friends assert that the fatal
prostratiou is mostly due to the manner
of his daughters marriage some weeks
ago to the son OF p. ID. Armour. Lester
had arranged for grand wedding festiyi-
ties. Young Armour disapproved and
taking the girl to Milwaukee had a quiet
marriage. The shock of this, it is said,
completely upset the invalid.

4 Paying Business.

Tue following from she Citizen, while intended ios Ts1snc r-incipsily, is sp- plicsble to every portion of tine terri t0rv:.
 Among tho &sny pursuits which can, be naade' profitable in Arizona. there snone which would bring quicker and lAl ger raiaras than poultry raising. Eggs sloE bring 90 cents per dozen, peFhsps s srifte above inc average price thosgh st tiaes the price reaches as high ss D aud 50 oents. Nine ;enths si sll es sha1 article sold in Tucson are shipped sn. mostly from Kansas. al. though Csliisyais sends iu some. From 500 to is06 dozen are bought from out. side markets every week when one need not be im ported. Eggs are always In demand, and the market is never glntted.. When fresh sbey are worth from , te lo cents per dozen more than the unt ise product, The sign Tucson Eggs' slways brings them & ready sale tlie prlces ranging higb- <, Poultry ranches with say 5so or coo chickens, divided into small iocks of % or 3e, snd given plenty of roors with free sccess Co water, would make an in. yestnent that would pay 1000 per cent, Chickens are hardy, and as a rule III this country are left to their eva sweet will. Given little care, the trouble is well repaid.
 IL might be said that an Arizona climate is not good one for poultry. h the Salt River valley, the business is carried on very extensively, bringing good returns. For nine months out ei tise year poultry can be made to pro- dnce in this sliuiate in immense ausn. titles,
 The home supply of eggs consists O.; . few brought in by Mexicans. For these good prices are always paid, and young chickens find a quick market.
 The business is one no, requiring any muscle labor, aud persons otherwise inesp2clted may carry i. on as we'll as the strongest. :.
 = Wosaen. boys er disabled persons may follow tass wqrk making out of it first rate income. ~~ ,.,..
 Poultry raising Is not au experiment. Everywhere chicken ranches pay, Ari- zona included.
