 Last week new petition for a school district at ATizola was pre- sentcd to the board of supervisors of Pinal county. The petition bore the signatures of the parents of twenty five children within the proposed school district. To a supplementary petition was attached the names of nearly all the taxpayers in the area included. The petition went to the board with ihe official approval of the county school superintendent, Judge Miller. The board took mp the mat fer, and by consent it's consideration was continued to the April meeting. at which time it is hoped the super visors will grant the prayer of the pe- tition. At that time the people of Arizola will have been uniustly de- priycd of their legal rights an entire year. Surely that should be sufficient time to satisfy both Smith and Reid.
 Nf- VI. baunon, foreman nf the force that enlarged the stock corral, is an old acquaintance of Mir. Tho. Burke of Arizola, and while here Mr. Bannou enjoyed very pleasant social visit with his friend. Mr Lannon's force was nicely outtitted with boarding ear, tool car. etc. and in the boarding ear the wants of the men are well pro. vided by two good cooks who laid on the table at each meal spread that clnalled that of good hotel. From here the outfit went west, and will be engaged some time in lepliring tres. ties and bridges between lere and Yuma, new piling being needed in many places.

UNAUDITED CLAIMS.

Mendocino Asylum Directors Man
damus the State Examiners.
The suit Of the Directors of the Mendo-
cino Insane Asylum against Governor
Markham and the State Board of Exam
iners has been transferred from Mendo-
cino to this county.
1t appears from the papers filed that
the asylum directors had approved three
certain claims amounting to S7l7 80,
which the State Board of Examiners re-
fused to allow on the ground that the
asylum fund for the fiscal year, appro-
priated by the Legislature, had been eX-
hausted. This the directors deny, and
aver that the fund has still to its credit
the sum of $4,000, and they have asked
the court Tor a writ of mandate requiring
the Board OF Examiners to audit the
claims.
In his answer Attorney-General Hart
admits that there is $1,000 in the Mendo-
cinO Asylum fund, but says it is in excess
of the amount specified in the Revenue
Act and cannot be used.
The ayslum directors have filed de-
murrer to the answer of the defendants,
and it will be heard at an early day.

Comedy" will be given on Wednesday
evening, commencing at $50 o'clock, in

All who attended his first lecture were

that the course will prove very popular.
Tickets for the remaining five lectures
may be had at the door for 81 90; single
admissions, 80 cents. These charges are
solely for the purpose of meeting actual
costs of the course, with no profit what
ever TO anyone. II the charges do not
equal the cost the University Club has to
foot the bill. If there is surplus on any
one course it is applied to the mainte-
nance of the next and reduction OF the

restaurants, abandoned by the French,
are thriving on the Americans of foreign

have never got away from the fine old
neighborhood. They have failed to grow
richer with the city, and they cling all
the closer to their exclusive pride. a
great deal of pathos and some absurdi-
