It is with no small degree Of pride that
the SOUTHWEST SENTINEL refers to this
very worthy institution. Il was found
ed in this city IN the year 1883, by a few
of our leading ladies, who sought to fur
nish an asylum for tile infirm and a ref
uge for the deserving injured and afflict-
ed. 1t would be difficult to state in just
what degree their efforts have been re-
warded. But let it suffice to say that all
they hoped for has been most bountiful-
ly realized. In addition to the great
charity dispensed beneath the roof Of
this institution TO the hundreds Of home
less and penniless subjects, this commu-
nifty has noticed the quiet though steady
growth Of { Of the best equipped hos
pitfalls in the southwest. From a small
building on the present site in 1883 has
grown an institution which today could
not be duplicated at an expense Of &1O,
600.
During the session of the Legislative
assembly Of 1884 an appropriation Of
$1,000 per year was asked for 10 aid OF
the institution. This was granted and
has been continuously enjoyed ever since.
The management of the institution has
been exclusively in the hands Of ladies,
and this monument to their clerical and
executive abilities iscertainly most graf
flying. There has been very little change
ia the officers OF the society since its or
~gnnization, up to the present time.
However at the election held on the 18th
Of last February, an entirely new corps
Of officers was chosen. This necessitat-
ed a thorough auditing Of accounts from
June LIST, 1892, the last date upon which
the books we're checked, up to January
3lst, 1895. BY agreement Of both the
retiring and incoming officers, a commit
tee consisting Of VIM. IL. Newcomb, Il.
Cosgrove and W. @. Porterield, was Sc
lected aa the auditing committee, aud
after a most thorough and searching
examination, occupying several days,
they submitted their report last Thurs
day. During the time from June. '82,
to February, '95, about $4,000 had been
received and disbursed, and considering
that warrants ranging from % cents up
to hundreds Of dollars had been drawn
in the mean time. it IL remarkable that
some errors did not occur. But such
was the report OF the committee. They
not only found the books and accounts
correct 10 q cent. but also found In the
hands OF the treasurer s454 o.. This
amount, together with the $3.50 now due
from the Territory for the month Of Jan
uary, will give the new management
s7O4.0 upon which 10 begin their ad-
ministration.

Mrs. Marren.s Whist Party.

The Siempre vive Whist Club met
with Mrs. o. s. Warren last Saturday
evening, and in addition to the regular
membership there we're invited guests
present to the number Of Go. Very few
regrets we're received by the hostess
and those failing to be present certainly
missed n OF the brightest social events
of the season. Progressive whist was
the leading feature OF the evening, the
science and pleasure OF which was taken
up at about $3.50 o'clock. He who start
ed at the foot table was at once fated
not to reach tho goal-table number
one. One remarkable feature about
the party was found in the fact that out
Of SO great a number there were so few
poor players-in fact The playing was
universally very fine. The playing con.
tinued till nearly u o'clock, when lunch
was served. This was also an highly en-.
ioyable number on the program. The
refreshments we're ample and delicious
and partaken of with an enthusiasm
which attested to their toothsomeness.
After luncheon had been served the
guests assembled in the spacious parlor
where all joined in singing plantation
melodies and college songs. Il was a
very successful party in every particular,
Miss Josie Whitobill woD the ladies'
prize and Mr.. 10 e. Sheridan the gen
tIemen's prize.

A GeOgTaphicaI Party.

The ladies' Of the NJ. E. Church gave
another one Of their enjoyable sccials
at morrill, ball last Friday night. The
geographical feature Of the entertain
ment consisted IN the selection of part
ners for supper, by the gentlemen draw
ing cards upon which was written the
capitol Of a state. Each lady had been
provided with a badge upon which waS
printed the name Of some state, and the
gentleman holding the card upon which
the capitol Of that state was written be-
came her partner. It proved very inter
esting.
A very entertaining musical and liter
airy program was rendered, as follows;
Overture, violin, horn, piano and organ,
Wessrs. Barnes aud Fitch, aud Misses
Abraham aud Knucky.
"Piigrim Chorus, Misses Moore, Clay
ton, Whitohill Childers, Mrs. Mari
oil, Messrs. Marriott and Fitch.

The Little Fanny mine and mill at
Cooney is doing great work theso
days. Last month the mill was run "a
hours a day and was not closed down
five minutes during the entire month
The company has just completed their
new tram and it works like a charm.
II carries 40 tons Of ore per day aod
does ITS work without break, strain or
friction. There are 30 men employed IN
the mine and about % IN the mill. Since
Chas. Oracle, the new foreman, took
charge Of the mill there has been a very
marked improvement in the operation
Of the Little Fanny. To give an idea OF
the amount Of money put into %circula-
ton by this company It is only necessary
to state that every month it pays out,
for labor and supplies, about $1,000.
The Maud s. which Is one Of the best
properties 10 the southwest, is running
right along night and day without inter
ruption. The method Of handling the
ore on this property lessons the operat-
iug expenses very %appreciably. Instead
Of expensive hauling or trans the ore
is run directly from the mine 70 the
mill ia cars, and thus the expense Of
r~ehandling the ore is saved. For the
two weeks ending February 7th, the
managers Of this property shipped three
bars Of bullion weighing, in the aggre-
gate, 44O pounds.
The Deep Down mill, which has been
closed down for a long time, will start
up again thus week on custom ore. The
majority Of the ore which this mill will
treat will be from the consolidated mine,
This mine has perhaps one Of the largest
orc bodies OF any mine in the Territory.
w. H. Newcomb, OF this city, who is the
principal owner Of this property, is 60
ing out tomorrow to direct the work and
will ut once put on a large force of men
aud push both the mill and mine to theiI
utmost capacity.
Geo. r. Brown is pushing the develop
ment work on the Copper Queen mine
at Cooney. He is working a double shift
and employs 10 men. The development
work is disclosing rich ore bodies and
the company which he represents intenC
quitting up q mill in the spring.
Cooney, Coates & Shibely, who hav,
taken q lease and bond on the Coonei
mine and mill, are doing we'll. They ar,
making q steady run and their water sup
ply is ample for all their needs.
II is reported that Mcclure & Fuez
of Granite Mountain fame, are going t
take hold Of the Little Fanny property
enlarge the plant and purchase severa
other good mines. Should this result
be accomplished, Cooney will at once OK
perience a great boom.
There are several new buildings il
course OF erection at Graham and th,
Confidence rs pounding away night un'
day.
The whole Mogollon country is as bus,
as a bee hive, and there is not an idl
man in that section who desires to work
The average wages paid is about $50
per day.

Sheriff Baylor shannon returned from
the Lower ella last Thursday afternoon,
where he had been IN search of the men
who held mp the Southern Pacific train
on the 25th Of last uoath at STEMS Pass.

country, but while he was unable to To-
cate them, ne found out where they had
stayed and obtained a complete descrip-
ton OF them and the horses they rode.
He also learned the names OF the desper-
ADDE'S. Grant Wheeler and Joe George

Of Feb, the day following the hold up
and made no secret of what they had
done. They both shaved of their heavy
boards and affected other DISCUSSES at
this place. From there they went 10
Blue Creek where they stayed all night
with Henry Martin, aud from this point
IL is not known just what direction they
took. There Is a reward Of $1,000 offer
ed for their arrest and conviction, but
they are bad men and heavily armed &c
that he who captures them will have a
desperate brace TO handle. Deputy
Sheriff McAdee is still out and will not
return until he examines every nook and
crook in that part of the country. These
men are also known to be the men
who did the hold-np job near Wilcox
a few weeks ago.
