The North and South Raiload to
 Blow its Whistle in Tucson.

Judge Kibbey was in the city yester day direct from Prescott. He had not seen his family for long time and start ed for Florence on this mornings train Whilst here the judge was spoken to re, lative to the chances of the North and South railroad as he understood it in the northern section having just come from where the road is now making its initial steps. He replied II have held conver- sations with several active and promi- nent men in the now railroad building section of Arizona where there is a great deal of vim and commendable push being exhibited in putting the road through to Phoenix, spoke witk MT. Frank Murphy who IS most thoroughly acquainted with the projects and ulti- mate designs of the road now being built and he asserts positively that it will extend to Florence and Tucson. From all that 1 have seen with my own eyes and from that which has been con- nded to be by those who are in posi- tive position to know l say that Tucson can rely on the North and South rail- road as not only contemplated but an early completed tangible fact" The judge left for his home in Florence thls morning.

High Handed.

Word comes from Station 30 on the ArIzona and Southeastern railroad which is several miles north of the SO- nora line and a few miles below Bisbee, that on Sunday four Mexican custom house guards surrounded the sta ton and captured another Mexican who had been but few months previous the chief of the Mexican guards. He was on his way to the City of Mexico and had with him a trunk which the invad- CTS took possession of, and demanded the key of the owner. This he refused to give up although threats.against his life were made nnless he consented. Finding him stubborn in bis refusal they procured an axe and broke the trunk open. They took from it bundle of documents, and hastily took their departure for their own country.
 The victim refused to say anything regarding the purport of the paper seiz- ed, but from another source it is learned that they contained damaging testimony against the custom afiiclals stationed in Sonora, and that had he reached his destination with them, wholesalea rrests and removals would have speedily fol- lowed.
 4 telegram was sent 10 the commander at Ft. Huachuca but he was unable to act. The matter has been laid before the state departament at Washington Prospector.

Tucson's Rain Experiment.

Tucson was thrown into 8 state oi excitement yesterday evening about half past five or six o'clock by the con- stant and rapid intonation of what app cred to be consort of volleys of artillery or dynamitical explosions just Sonth of Tucson. Some said that it was the eve of the day upon which Mars was to jump 8 million miles nearer to the earth than heretofore and propably the gods of war had become angered and were turning loose hot shot shrapnel and shell in order to provoke our militia to arms. Others said it was Allisons rock men working a way for the canal bed. The truth which always prevails was probaly gotton down to and condensed to the following facts. Some of our Citi- zens among whom were the mining men Sampson, Bent, Oury, Flnnigen Wetmore Preston, and others conceived the idea that the conditions being favorable constant explosion and concussion of giant bowler would produce ram, To this end l30 pounds of giant powder was purchased and taken to the top of Sen tinel Peak just South of the city where gunner Flnnegan proceeded to load and discharge the dynamite artillery and dSSd!er "eIuOre teln pdTarily ueSlsteQ from assaying chlorides, bromides, quar- tz and rock and proceeded to tackel Jupiter Pluyius with the reseuls that he secuard an assay of black floating clouds, accompanied by winds and str eaks of lighting followed by condensed water known as rain. This act on the part of these gentelmen simple as it may appear may rebound in an established principle of discovery worth thousands upon thousand of dollars tc Arizona

This company met last night at their armory hall on the corner of Convent and Jackson street, This Hall is one of the best ID the city and was at one time the armory of the Grand Army of the Republic meetings, long and pret- ty baDnerets monogramed with the stars and stripes extended from the far corners of the ceiling and met at the entrance of an air ventIlator in the middle of the ceiling. Three stacks of arms including 50 rifles along with bayo- nets and swords and other accoutre- ments ornamented the soldiery and likewise :he hall. Captain Trayer marshalled his company into lIne and read certain portions of the military code to them relative to absence and non attendance and the fines attached thereto when traced to absolute negii- gence. The captain who is thorough veteran Tn military tactics then proceed ed to drill his company in the manual of arms and during the evening turned over those duties at intervals to 2nd Lieutenant Hutton and 1st Sargent I. R. Riesgo. The drill practice was very creditable. Captain Trayer says that he has made application for two drums and will shortly receive them. He seems to be an officer we'll up in military tactics and no doubt will bring those under his charge to high degree of proficiency.

Owing to the advertised announce ment Tn the newspapers and also an announcement made al the last regular session of the City Council that there would be a special meeting of the City Council Thursday night certain mem- bers of the Council assem- bled at the city hall last night at the proper hour, to transact any business that might tend to promote the City's welfare or to place JhIs community into an atmOs- phere of improvement and a step for ward from the present dilatory state of inactivity. Tie rooms of the city hall wherein the mayor usually presides, is opposite park square and to the rear of the court house. As one enters the door the opposite half of the room fac ing the door is encased by neat railing inside of which there is an elevated platform approached and surrounded by tier of steps on this platform is the desk end char of the City's chief off, cer is located.

The old idea of 40 tsars ago was that facial eruptions wee due I1 blood humor," for which they gave potash. Thus all the old Sarss- parillss contain potash, most objectionable and drastic mineral, that instead of decreasing. actually creates more eruptions. You have mo- dced this when taking other Sarsaparinas than Joys. It is however now known that the stom- ach, the blood creating power, is the seat of all vitlating or cleansing operations. A stomach clogged by indigestion or constipation, vitiates the blood, result nimples. A clean stomach and healthful digestion purihes it and they disappear
 Thus Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla is compounded after the modern idea to regulate the bowels and stimulate the digestion. The effect is immediate and most satisfactory. A short testimonial to contrast the action of the potash Sarsaparillas and Joys modern vegetable preparation. Mrs. c. D. Stuart, of 100 Hayes St, s. F., writes: "I have for years had indigestion, tried popular sarsaparilla but it actually caused more pimples to break out on my face. Hearing that Joys was . later preparation and acted differently, I tried 1t and the pimples immediately disappeared"

Mad Dogs.

Last Thursday afternoon the ranches in the vicinity of Florence were invaded by large yellow dog foaming at the mouth and snapping at every animal in sight It succeeded in biting a number of dogs and very much fright ening the occupants of the houses. This procee ing was kept up for sev- eral days, and the mad dog succeeding in eluding the sbot guns and pistols called into use for its reception. Sun day the dog returned to Pat. Hollands ranch where it belonged, ard was there dispatched. A rumOr is current that a child Lad been bitten by the rabid ami nal, but has not been confirmed. Many of the bitten dogs have been killed in anticipation of attacks of hydrophobia. It is expected that many have escaped detection and will show the dreaded symptoms later on. "Iellow dog" Is now an ominous by-word in Florence Florence Tribune.

The best dressed lady in Amadee July 4.h was squaw from the Pyramid Lake reservation. She wore a handsome dress of scarlet plush, trimmed with lavender ribbon. Her raven black hair was held Tn place at the neck by gold broach richly set with stores, and the locks were then allowed to fall at will down her back. On her head was a rich white and black chenille shawl fringed on the edge with quarters at distance of about two inches apart. In purchas- Ing a water melon from B. c. Brown she displayed a bead purse containing two twenty-dollar, three ten-dollar and several five-dollar pieces, together with a number of greenbacks.
