READY TO MOVE
Three Companies of Troops at " WhIPPle Ready to Move on a Moments
 Not ce.

An official order was received by telegraph, at Whipple, last evening, from General McCook from depart ment headquarters at Denver, to place three companies of the troops stationed there in readiness to move at a moments notice. They were ordered to take two days travel rations and ten days uncooked food with tentage and camp equipments and 100 rounds of ammunition. Their prospective destination was not stated and of course can Onl y be guessed at. While troops have been asked for, along the line of the A. x P. road, the fact that two days, travel rations have been ordered in- dicates that their objective point can not be this side of Albuquerque if ordered east of Prescott. Los Angeles has six companies of troops so It does not seem that any larger force is re 1uired there, while if they were to be sent to San Francisco a larger amount of rations would be required. In anticipation of rece.y- ing such orders, Col. De Russey, commanding the Whipple garrison, had already quietly put the troops in marching order condition and if last nights orders had been for them to moye at once it would have required but very short time for them to have put the order into execution.

How a Little Act Of Consideration We.
 Distinction For e Traveller.

|
 An Englishman making the grand tour about the middle of the last cen. tury, when travellers were more ob | jects of attention than they are now, on arriving at Turin sauntered out to see the place
 !, He happened to meet a regiment of infantry returning from parade and took a position to see it pass. A young captain, evidently anxious to make display before the stranger, in crossing one of the numerous wa ter courses with which the city is in. tersected, missed his footing, and in trying to save himself lost his hat.
 The exhibition was truly unfortu- nate-the spectators laughed and looked at the Englishman, expecting to see him laugh too. On the con trary, he not only retained his com posture, but promptly advanced to where the hat had rolled, and taking it up presented it with an air ofun- affected kindness to its confused owner.
 The officer received it with a blush of surprise and gratitude and hur- ried to rejoin his company; there was a mur1nur of applause, and the stranger passed on. Though the scene of a moment and without a word spoken, it touched every heart, not with admiration for a mere dis play of politeness, but with a warm CT feeling for a proof of that true charity which never faileth.
 On the regiments being dismissed the captain, who was a young man of consideration, in glowing terms related the circumstance to his colo nel. THe-colonsl immediately men tiohed it to the general in command. and when the Englishman returned to his hotel he found an aid-de-camp waiting to request his company to dinner at headquarters.
 In the evening he was carried to court, at that time, as Lord Chester field tells us. the most brilliant court in Europe.
 Of course during his stay at Turin he was invited everywhere, and on his departure he was loade,l with let ters of introduction to the different states of Italy. y.-Philadelphla Times.

The New City JsiI.

The new city Jail, when completed will be an ornament to the south side, as we'll as a solid and safe place for the custody of infractors of city ordinances. The building is 43xlS feet. The office of the Mayor and other city offices will be in the front portion of it, while the rear will be fitted up with cells. The building is stone entirely, the contractor being Hugh Burns, one Of the best stone workers in the southwest. The walls are already progressing well along towards completion, and Mir. Burns thinks that, with good weather, he will have his part of the contract completed within ten day . The front wall is being built with stone from the quarry west of town, a rich looking brown sand stone. 1t is cut in what is known as rock face, and is one of the finest pieces of stone work in the southwest. Mir. Burns is a veritable artist in stone cutting, and the work done on the front of this building would be an ornament to the finest buildings found in large cities. The side walls are being built of granite and is known as random work. While no effort has been made at orna- mentation in them, they are being built for durability, being two feet in thickness, many of the rocks used running across the entire width of the wall. MT. Burns has done a gseat deal of work in this section during the past four years, and we have to hear yet of the first work that has not proven entirely satis- factory. The stone work for the new Catholic Church was built by him.
