 Nelson still holds the fort and the bad men have taken back seat for the time being. The Lordsburg Lib eral condems in the strongest terms the lawless acts of these men, and the better class of people, who are in the minority are powerless to act.
 Another operator at Benson walked out last night and there is but one man on deck who does double work.

MO vit Came About.

Old Santa Claus, king of the holiday trade. A tour of inspection has recently made, To decide who, of all the merchants in town, For the holiday season has prices way down, And has goods that for presents are timely and neat, Winch for prices with Santa himself will compete. For St. Nicholas, tired of climbing on roofs, And awakening the people with clat- tering of sshoo.s And lodging down chimneys with a pack on his back; He decided this season to try a new tack. So this year he says to his numerous friends, As over the country his journey he wends: "Please buy your toys of the house named below. For no more I'll carry through frost and through snow. They'll show you fine goods, well worth your attention, A full list of which I've not space here to mention" And on this subject no longer to dwell As the house below mentioned ii known so we'll. That Santa can only endorse the opin ion That they are the leaders and have full dominion.

A passenger just from the east who came over the Santa Fe, gives de- scription of the recent blockade in which he was caught for four days and nights. The snow had the right of way. It was in the Raton and Glori- etta mountains, and was the heaviest for years, aud it was eight feet deep on the level. It had drifted at the mouth of the Raton tunnel sixteen feet or more. The weather is very cold and the thermometer in the mountains was at least twelve degrees below zero. The trains laid over at Raton station, where the passengers were all we'll cared for. There is an eating house there with plenty of provisions, and beyond the delay there was very little inconvenience exper- fenced.

Pope Plus TX was . Mason.
 New York Times.
ANOTHER VICTIM.

New York Times.
 Masons in this city are mildly in- terested in the cable reports of the commotion in the French Chamber of Deputies over the statement of Presi- dent Floquet that Pope Plus TX was Freemason.
 A worn copy of the Voice of Mason ry has been found, in which the story of the expulsion of Plus TX from the order was published. The story is as follows;
 At the semi annual meeting of the Grand Lodge of Masons, Scottish Rite of the Orient, of Palmero, Italy, on the 27th of March last. Pope Plus TX was expelled from the order The de- cree of expulsion was published in the official Masonic paper at Cologne, Germany, and is preceded by the min. utes of the lodge in which he was initiated, and is as follows:
 GA man named Mastai Fe rretti, who received the baptism of Free masonry and solemnly pledged his love and fellowship. and who after ward was crowned Pope and King under the title of Pic TX, has now cursed his former brethren and ex- communicated all members of the Order of Freemasons.
 Therefore, said Master Ferretti is herewith, by decree of the Grand Lodge of the Orient, Palmero, expelled from the order for perjury
 "The charges against him were first preferred in his lodge at Palmero in 1865, and notification and copy there of sent to him, with request to at tend the lodge for the purpose of an swering the same. To this he made no reply, and, for divers reasons, the charges were not pressed until he urged the Bishops of Brazil to act agressively toward the Freemasons. Then they were pressed, and after regular trial, decree of expulsion was entered and published, the same being signed by Victor Emanuel, King of Italy, and Grand Master of the Orient of Italy.

Devoid Ot Decemcy.

Phenix is fast gaining the reputa- tion of being an unfit place for virtu- ous people to tarry in. The columns of filth that have been published in the papers of that city during the past six months would not have been sanctioned in another town ia the territory. The two morning papers in particular have vied with each other in unearthing Ill of the misiortunes that befell unfo. tunate women, and the sickening details were dragged be- fore the public with the apparent en- dorsement of the community. The ast disgIaceful and criminal act on the part of the press is the damnable article in the Republican, in which a young lady who was well known for many years in Tombstone and Bisbee, was made the target for the pencilings of a low mind for the sake of the few nickles which its publication might afford It's author.
 The facts of the case are simply those of similar cases occurring daily, and which are no concern of the pub lie, and not in any sense, affairs for publication.
 Dr. Darlington married Miss Lillie Ham in Phenix on Dec 17th, as the following telegram will show:
 PHENIx, Dec 19.
 S. 0. BAGG, PRosPECToR :-Dr. Dar- lington and Lillie Ham were married here Dec IF. R. H. UPTON.
 The article in the Republican held the wife up to the public gaze as a depraved character practicing deceit upon her parents, and the hus- band was represented as a fiend whose black heart had ruined the life of his future companion in life's joys and sorrows.
 It might be we'll to explain that Mr. Upton was resident of Tombstone for ten years, and that MT. Ham and family resided here for about the same length of time. MT. Upton had been a friend of MT. Ham and had seen the daughter grow from child into womanhood. The interest that he took in the affair is perfectly under stood by those who know the friend- ship existing between the family and MT. Upton, and to announce to the friends of both parties that barrier had been placed against any future cause for unkind remarks, was the object he had in telegraphing that fact through the PRosPECToR to the many friends and acqualntances of the par ties concerned, who will wish them a prosperous and happy future. For the man who penned the low thoughts of his depraved mind, they will wish no better fate than would befall him i did he reside in Cochise County.
