Mr.. oLADsToNE's PET.


The Dog That Accompanies the Grand
Old Man IN His Walks.
"Petx'' il the name of . little black
POmeranian dog A. Hawarden castle to
which, il is said, Mr.. Gladstone has be-
come much attached. The dog came
from Swalbach, Nassau, where two of
Mr.. Gladsone's family were sojourning
for some time in the early summer of
1883. PETE belonged to Herr Befsoir of
the pension stadt Coblcntz, where they
stayed, and in return for their. atten-
tiOns he SO entirely devoted himself to
the two English visitors that, when the
stay came to IN end, by friendly ar
rangement PETE came over to England
and made his new home at Hawarden.

cares half SO much to accompany on .
walk as Mr.. Gladstone, because he
knows that the chances are that he will
get more stick-throwing-Petz pet

the great statesman than FROM the
other and more hard-hearted members
of the family. With this object in view,
he will lie in wait in the early morAing

may be allowed to accompany him on
his daily walk Up TO the church stS:so

Gladstone has often protested that in
throwing sticks for him to catch He is
quite unable To resist or to dire out his
pertinacious little friend. Nearly, all
the ex-cabinet ministers when visiting
Hawarden have had to contribute in
this way to Petx's amusement. ,''-'
Mr.. Gladstone delights in telling his
friends how on one occasion whsa he
was telling tree, with Petzas his only
companion. the little fellow, after .
time thought some little attention
should be paid to him, and that some
chips should be thrown to him to fetch.
So he kept picking up . chip now and
again. and dropping It 1t the wood

Mr.. Gladstone took il all in. and. ap-

THAT STATION AT DALLAA

Good Deal of Anxiety as to What the
Railroad Company Will Do.
81 was misquoted about the station ai
Dallas" said Michael Trump, Of the Penn.
sylvania Railroad Company, to reporte,
yesterday, referring to an article published
in one of the Sunday papers. 81 did moi
say the stations Of Dallas and Torrens were
to be consolidated. What did say is that
no action whatever has been taken.
Our workmen began yesterday morning on
Q new station for Torrens, to be built on the
southwest corner at the intersection with
Fifth avenue. 1 will say, however, that
Dallas station should be discontinued when
the new station is completed"
"Why?" was asked. doesn't the busi-
ness at Dallas warrant station?"
81 do not refer TO that" said Mr.. Trump.
ssIn the first place the, station is at a dan
gerous point on account of the shifting. In
the second place, it is not SO very far to
Fifth avenue"
This latter statement will very much as
tonish the good people of North and South
Dallas They never knew before that they
were a race of pedestrians. The distance
haps; and that's about the only style of
travel practicable to the people on the
north side with streets as they have been
the past few winters. The people believe
there is enough patronage at Dallas to JUS
tify a new station right where the old one
stands.
The residents of the district interested
are charitable enough to believe that the
citizen from the boulevard" who, in the
newspaper article referred to was made to
say he favored consolidation of the two
stations, was also misquoted. They cannot
understand why he should advocate meas
ure which would result in such great incon-
venience to his neighbors. The people are
on the anxious seat.

JAMES GETTY & CO.,
1so FIRST AVENUE,
PITTSBURG, Pa,
Have received a stock of the cele-
brated o. F. c. Whiskey, manufact-
ured by the George T. Stagg Co.,
Frankfort, KY, and which is becom-
ing popular and is being so generally
used by connoisseurs throughout the
land. The special and distinctive
qualities Of this famous whiskey are
its delicate flavor, absolute purity
and great age. There is not a single
bottle of o. F. c. which is not at
least ten years old. This gives an
added richness to its already supe-
rior flavor. 1t certainly is not sur
prising that it has become so popular
and is being called for so generally
by the better classes.

It would pc we'll for all those. ho.h ;n Tombstone and elsewhere in tine county, who desire to take out their final papers and vote this fall to send their names to the clerk, A. H.

From the Line,

Lieut.. Seyb2rn and Dr. Mearns, of the boundary survey party, who are visiting Tombstone, are much pleased with our town and its magificent eli mate. They say that there is no finer climate in the world than that of southern Arizona. Lieut.. Seyburn was in active service during the Ger onimo breaks a few years ago and has had many exciting experiences around the San Carlos reservation in pursuit of reEegades. He thinks the Apache question is settled for all time.
 The party with which he is now act ing as escort is camped al Pete John- sons ranch below Bisbee. The Mexi- can party is still long way behind. The principal cause of their slow work IS due to the lack of money, The United States surveyors are now doing the work for the Mexican party, the expense of which will be paid by the Mexican government. It is expected that under this order of things the Mexicsns will soon catch up with our party.

For the Adobe.

s. R. DeLong of Dos Cabezas picks up the cudgel for the much despised a io!-e. In a communication to the Citizen he says:
 have observed there have appeared at various times in your valuable journal and other Tucson papers, very disrespectful remarks about our old fDend the Adobe" as building mater ial, saying "this relic of barbaris m must go" or words to that effect. Now there are other evidences of barbarism still stronger than the abused adobe" that is 10 think the manners, ways and customs of ones particular neigh borhood section, are superior to GUS toms and all other peoples. Savages always know more in their own esti- nation than all other people, and know their ways to be perfection hay- ing seen no other. Now the fact seems to be that brick is the best building material for lattitudes sub ject to dsmpness and frost; for adobes where dsmpness could reach them and then freeze, would soon scale them off and crumble away, but in lat titudes where houses are built more as a protection against heat, the adobe is preferable, therefore in spite of "bar- bsrism" prejudice in this dry warm climate. For a house, for comfort, give me an adobe with thick massive walls, and dirt roof under either an iron or single one-iron preferred as that will rot burn

A Suggestion.

The only argument the leaders oi the two great parties are open to is- votes. You may talk and fret and tune about the wrongs oi labor, the infamy of demonetizing silver, or the burden the liquor traffic compels pro ductive industry to carry all you please fl you'll only vote the regular ticket, ."this once.v Failing to vote the ticket is the only thing that hurts, there fore don't grumble, but go off and flock with party tha: believes as you do. If there are none then create one or .hock by yourself. In some way register your individual opinion; not especially in convention or during the campaign, but on the Sth of November at the ballot box. Then and there is the only time and place it counts.

A Big Waer Suit.

One of the biggest water suits ever brought in Arizona is to be commen- ced by the Mohawk canal company, of Yuma county, against all or nearly all the canals on the Gila river. The principal defendants will be the south Gila, Farmers, Gila Bend and Flor enoe canals. The Mohawk antedates all others on the river, so it IS claim ed, having been made in 1883. The company claims to be first, both in location and appropriation. It will ask that all others be restrained from using water until the Mohawk is SUD- piled if the water does not reach the Mohawk heading then the others will be allowed to use it. The case will probably be tried before Chief Justice Gooding, at Phenix. c. F. Ainsworth or Phenix, and W. H. Barnes, of Tue son, have been retained by the Mo hawk company. A bitterly contested fight may be looked for, as all will de- fend what they believe to be their rights.-Yuma Times.

Which will you haver It does seem as if some folks prefer to nave the last
 condition Of the liver rather than the first. They perpetually dose them selves with purgatiyes totally without virtue as alterative of liver trouble. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters IS the successful candidate for the peoples choice, and yet, popular as it is, there are unfortunates who keep on trying the drastic remedies of former days. It is to the intelligent portion of the pub lie that the well known and long tried properties of the Bitters appeal. Reas- on should be guided by experience in
 the matter of medication. "The best guide to our feet is the lamp of exper- iencs," said great patriot of the early
