wATERw AND VISITORS.
They Will be Discussed nt Rabbits
 Hall saturday Night.

At the close of the Fourth of July meeting last Tuesday night Mayor Bab- bit announced that he had been in- formed of the organization "f syndi, cate in the southern part of the terri tory, whose object is to put in water works system here, if it is practicable. The company feels confident that it has feasible plan. but wants d guarantees of charter and fair profits before com mencing operations.
 It was decided to hold meeting at Babbitl's hall next Saturday night for the purpose of discussing the matter, at which D. NJ. Riortlan will preside and E. $. Clarke will act as secretary. The movement is backed up by the same gentlemen who are booming the Fourth of July celebration, and they desire the cooperation of every citizen in town.
 The mayor also read letter from Governor Hughes, in which it was stated that Il number of people from the south intended to build cottages and sprnd the summer here. He pre- dictrd that Flagstaff would he the coming summer resort of Arizona and backed up his prognosiicatinn ny sev- rral clippings from papers ia southern Arizona, in which the advantages of the Sk,lght City as place to spe' d the hot months in a cool and pleasant manner were ably and truthfully de- picted. The governor also said that he various Chantauqua societies of the territory would probably hold yearly encampmrnts here and advised the establishment of park on Oh servatory hill and the erection of an auditorium in the center of it. These matters will also be considered and a definite plan of action decided upon.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
The Durango, Flagstaff & san Diego
 Route Cheap and Feasible

The Durango, Flagstaff S san Diego
 Route Cheap and Feasible
 Wilson Hamilton, president and John w. Francis, secretary, of the Du- rango, Flagstaff & San Diego Railroad company, reached Flagstaff on Monday with Charles Lee, the chief engineer of the road, after having completed the survey of the Mogollon rim from the Crest to the Verde valley. After ex- animation of the country in q general way by Mir. Lee and Mir. Monroe, the assistant engineer, it was determined to commence the survey at point half mile west of where the Dry Beaver wagon road reaches the Crest of the rim and about five miles north- west of the Montezuma well. There taking general southwesterly course to point on Dry Beaver about q mile and half westerly from Beaver head and where the Oak creek road leaves the Dry Beaver and where the line st. ikes the valley, being about six miles from the Crest of the level plaln. | 1t must be borne in mind that Mir. Lee was assisted in this work very much by his knowledge of the country, he having made Il reconnaissance of tie region for w. A. Clark in January 1894. The sharpest grade in this dis tauce of six miles is 3 per cent. and the sharpest curvature is twelve de- grees. which is much less grade and curvature than many western roads. very feasible and comparatively ineX- pensive mountain road. All the rest of the llne is over fairly level coun- try where d road can be cheaply built. From Beaver head the company has the choice of two routes, one by crossing S'th +icch uedi Soui tuOuoc tOCh anu the other by going along on the south side of Oak Creek to the Verde river. From the crest of the rim northward there is also the choice of two routes to Flagstaff.
 These are gratifying facts coming frnnn a al lik.l Mi. who has had nearly quarter of a century's experience IS ! railroad en- giueer. He was employed on the Southern Pacific, the Oregon Short Line, the Northern Pacific, the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix. the Jerome and many other roads where first quail ity of engineering skill was in sharp demand. He came to Mir. Hamilton with the highest recommendations from Mir. Joseph L. Giroux and other gentlemen of equal standing.
 This solves the problem, settles the question of the possibility of the Flag staff route and also establishes the i'm portant fact that the road can be easily and cheaply built. A little en- t rprise and determination of purpose on the part of our people will soon be rewarded by north and south road from Durango, through Flagstaff, to San Diego. Now let us have the road from Flagstaff to the Verde completed by the time snow flies next tall.

BING, BANG! BOOM! HURRAH!
Get Ready to Celebrate the Fourth of July-Also the Two
 Following Days,
It Will Be the Biggest Time Ever Seen in Northern Arizona-A Rous- ing Meeting Held Monday Night and Another One wiII Occur This Evening.

Flagstaff is to have the biggest Fourth of July celebration that has ever been seen in northern Arizona. It will commence promptly at the stroke of l2 on the night of July 3. be continued for three days and will cost S2,5OO, which is just twice the amount which was used last year.
 These facts were determined upon last Monday night at the largest and most enthusiastic preliminary meeting that was ever held for such a purpose in this city. The gentlemen present were: D. M. Riordan. k. S. Clark, F. W. Sisson, Dr. D. J. Brannen, Tim othy Donahue, c. H. Coble, District Attorney Jones. Mayor Babbitt, Ben Coffin. J. Guthrie Savage, Julius Aub- ineau, Jef Meyer, George Hochderffer and several others. The gathering oc- cured in the office of E. $. Clark, but a number of people thought that it was to be in Babbitt's hall. and when they found the latter place in darkness they went away. As soon as the as semblage was called to order it pro- ceeded to business and elected D. NJ. Riordan chairman, and E. $. Clark secretary.
 Il think we should have a three days celebration and should easily raise $2,500 to carry it cut" remarked d Mr. Riordan. ''Such an affair I feel sure will attract at least 1000 people from southern AriZ ma, besides the vis- it"rs who come from contiguous towns. The Fourth falls on Thursday and we can keep it going until Saturday night" On the motion of Tim Dona- hue ihe chair was authorized to ap- point a general committee of arrange ments consisting of eleven members, and the following selection was made: David Babbitt, Dr. D. J. Brannen. E. s. Clark, c. CanalI, George Hochderf- fer, Oscar Gibson, A. T. Cornish, J. w Francis. Ralph Cameron, George Hoxworth and D. M Riordan. Their first work will be to secure supscrip- tions. amp they were instructed to have half the amount paid m by May 1. D. NJ. Riordan started the ball to rolling by putting his name down for $25O. io be paid upon demand and Mayor Bab bitt followed suit with the same amount Dr. Brannen agreed to chip in $25 and free arnica and lint. Julius Aubineau came next with $50 and Cof- fin Bros. helped along the starter with $2n, while Tim Donahue said he felt confident that his firm would go in to the extent of $l00.
 It is intended to have the literary and patriotic exercises on the Fourth and the sports will occur on the two subsequent days. Mayor Rabbit agreed to have Governor Hughes take part if he can possibly be induced to come. and D. NJ. Riordan promise d to go east in an effort to get some public man of national celebrity to attend and make an oration. Mayor Babbitt was then elected treasurer. after which the meeting adjourned until tonight.
 The meeting this evening will be held in Babbitt's hall at 8 o'clock and the committee requests everybody to attend.

ANOTHER RUNAWAY.
DIR. DOlan's Team Runs Away
Bernard Christy Hurt.

-
Third avenue was the scene of
quite a bit of excitement on Monday
night of this week in which some
body got hurt. It seems that DR..
Dolan had returned from profess
sional visit in the country about 9
o'clock and had left Bernard Christy
to unhitch and put away his team.
As Bernard was unhitching the team
in front of Mccartney & Aagaard's
livery barn, piece of paper blew up
between the horses, which frightened
them, and they started to run across
the street, running into tree in front
of the sample rooms, which smash
ed the tongue out of the buggy and
tore up the harness. They were
caught and brought back to the barn
by Fred Haislett and Jim Durfee.
Bernard hung to the lines when the
team started to run and was jerked
into buggy, striking on his arm and
dislocating it. DR.. Dolan set the
dislocated member. This makes
four ranaways in town in the past
two weeks. ~: u

The Latest SWindle.

A farmer living near Sibley was a
victim of the latest swindle the other
day. He sold a horse for $1,000 and
received the money at night, simply
glancing at the face of the bills, sup
sosing them to be two ten dollar bills.
He put them in his pocket and did
not look at them again.untilshe went
to pay bill at this place when he
found they were old Confederate bills
and worthless except as: curiosities'
The victim is now looking for the
man with the horse but it is safe to
predict he will never see him again.
Such men as he are not apt to be
found when wanted.
