Misses Warren and Long of Mesa, with | 0.her local talent, will assist in making ! he occasion one of long remembrance. The new addition to the Mesa Coop. now almost finished downstairs, and few more days will witness the fitting Gp of counters and shelving and stock lg the store. There will be three de- ysrtments, dry goods, grocery and \ hardware, which will no doubt get the
 bulk of the business of Mesa and
 vicinity. The prosperity of this busi-
 ness, the Zenos Coop, has been prover.
 tisl in the past, starting with compara- lively nothing under the careful man
 lgement of George Passey it has for
 lbe first three years paid big dividend
 each year, and last year a dividend of
 5 per cent was paid it's stockholders and the capital stock doubled. The
 business demanded more room and the
 Nge addition was put on. Last spring
 Nr. Passey started in business for him-
 eli and w. J. LeBaron was chosen to
 nke charge and no doubt it's success in
 le future will be greater than in the
 ast.
