Dispersion OF New England Families.

The extraordinary dispersion Of New
England families is illustrated in let
ter written by William Chaplin Web
ster, of Hudson, O., to the Hartford
Courant Mr.. Webster says that his
great-grandfather, Thomas Webster,
of Hebron, Conn, who lived to be
ninety-nine years and eight months
cid, had family of thirteen children,
all but one or two of whom married
and some Of whom settled near by
among them his grandfather. William
c. Webster is now in his eighty-ninth
year. When he was boy there were
four Webster families on four adjoin-
ing farms in that part of Hebron
known as Gilead, and he can count up
City Websters born and raised on those
farms. Now there is not Webster on
those farms, and the name has run out
in that neigh6oIllood.

SHIPS LOST AT SEA.
Swift Destruction Awaits a Sunlxen Vessel
at the Bottom of Old Ocean.


at the Bottom of Old Ocean.
In looking at the oceans, the mind
almost instinctively turns to the fate of
the ships which found their resting
place upon their floors. If the reader
were appointed to inspect the bottom
of the drained sea, he would be sure to
look at once for some remnants of his
kind, overwhelmed by storm or battle.
Fancy has depicted these vessels as
thiclly strewn over the bottom of the
sea and at times as hung in the depths,
unable, on account of the density of
the water, to find their way to the
earth. But all we know of the condi-
tions of the deep leads us to believe
that the sunken vessel finds its way
quickly to the foundations of the sea.
In few hours at most it reaches its
everlasting grave and is ready for the
swift destruction which awaits its
form.
At the stroke of its fall it must in
part sink into the ooze, which every
where is deep. Quickly the creatures
OF the sea, who by long existence in
fields where food is scanty have learned
to avail themselves of every chance of
subsistence, seize upon all the organic
matter which fortune has sent to
them. Even the masts and the other
woodwork will shortly be honeycombed
by living species and weighed down by
encrusting forms. Thus before long
the masts will fall and the decks will
share in the ruin.
If the reader could traverse the field
wherelnto came the shot-riddled ships
Of Trafalgar, he would probably, says
writer in Youths Companion, be sur
prised at the slight effect they would
make on the landscape. Each wreck
would most likely appear as a low
mound of debris, in which it would be
difficult to trace the semblance of the
stout craft which waged the greatest
seafght of all time.
Ships OF European people have been
for centuries finding their way to the
floors CT the ocean. Probably over a
hundred thousand vessels have met this
fate since the time when our race began
to find its way around the world Yet
by far the greater part OF these have
fallen upon the shadows near the shore,
where the swift currents and rapidly
moving debris are likely to aid in their
destruction and burial.
How swiftly they disappear in these
conditions may be judged by the expert
ence Of a diver who has sought for
sunllen treasures. Almost invariably.
after hundred years Or SO has passed,
they find that the craft is quite lost to
sight. Far more money has been spent
in these explorations than has been
won from them.
Curiously enough, the most perman-
ent records of mans empire of the seas
are being written in the ashes from the
coal-fed fires Of the steamships This
waste is in its nature indestructible
and the mass of material contributed in
any one year to the ocean floors is to be
reckoned by the million tons. In time
all the great ship routes will be payed
with this debris, which will be built
into the rocks, to remain as the most
enduring physical monument of mans

The Bisbee team are a good natured set and of cheerful disposition, not easily ruiiied, and above all are good players. although the Tombstoners went them one better.
 There was an immense crowd of spectators present who watched the game with interest, and spplauded every deserving play. In the first inning heavy score was made on both sides after which it was a tight game until the 7th inning when the Bisbeei;es made runs which sent them ahead points. Then the Tomb stones come up the home stretch in the ninth with two tallys to spare, which was the signal for more enthu- siasm, every body going wild with de- light.

THE BAND.

The Huachuca brass band composed of 20 pieces was, h the vernacular oI our devil, lou, of sIght," and theil music certainly was excellent and well rendered. 4 large crowd was con. stantly around the players and appre. citation was shown by the deserved acclamations and expressions of praise by the multitude. The
 FIREWORKS
 At the ball grounds was a success. A stand was erected and the grand pyrotechnic display was pleasing feature. Many new novelties were presented and the air was continually filled with variegated gorgeous colors and brilliant fires of dazzling effect. The numerous sky rockets. were espe- cially admired while the revolving wheels of rayJnet fires and shower Of pearls was well recleved. The band also interspersed during the fireworks disylsy with patriotic selections and all went merrily. At Scbielf,li lin Hall in the evening.
 THE DANCE
 Was the finale ot the days celebration and most brilliant success it was. The hall waa most elaborateiy and ar tistically decorated with bunting, flags and the nation al colors and the canvas ed floor placed in faultless condition which increased the pleasure of danc- ing. The hall was crowded and the beauty there assembled from all sec- tions of the county blending with the harmonious music of the Huachuca string band on. is completely lost in ecstasy of delight Sixteen sets were constantly on the floor and to say that everyone enjoyed themselves but faintly expresses it, In no manner could the festivities of the day ended more happily than in which it did amid music, and pleasure and good will toward all. It was a most pleasing close oi the evenUul day, and one long to be remembered.

Tombstone can be excused for lay ing claim to being the best Fourth of July town in the territory, made pos sible by the patriotism, energy and
 iberality of our citizens. The desire that the day should be honored in e ner dear to every America heaIt was general, but it remained for the celebration committee to carry it into execution, and 10 them is due the fact that no Independence Day has ever been celebrated in Tombstone more in unison with its memories and associ- ations, and with more general satisiac- ton to all than that of yesterday. By the night of the third the town was rapidly filling up with people from the surrounding country bent on having 6 good time. All through the night the rattle of vehicles of visitors from Bis bee, Benson and other points in the country, were heard, while squads oi cowboys from every ranch in tie county were on deck, and their arrival made known by series Of gentle whoops, such as the cowboy alone can utter.
 Benson was represente d, and Ben son yell informed the citizens they were also in it.
 The visitors from Bisbee alone are variously estimated at from l25 to I50. Fairbank. Wilcox, No ogales, St. David, Crittenden. Tucson, and nu- merous other towns were also repre- sented.
 Three of the largest stage coaches on the 4th were heavily laden with rolicking jolly lot of humanity, and altogether the patriotism displayed by all awakened admiration, and their enthusiasm commanded respect.
 The days programme was carried out to the letter, no hitch whatever being noticeable in the proceedings, which reflect more credit upon the organized and creditable efforts Of the executive committee. Long before the time set for the first feature of the programme steady stream of buggies and other vehicles, citizens and cow boys on horseback, bicycles, etc.. were seen going to the race track to see the

BIsBEE, July 3. 1895. AN INDIAN SCARE.

AN oNhhI@
 MT. Joerss oar portly and affsble watchmaker, returned yesterday from pleasant trip to the Huachucas where he went to relocate some cop per claims that he owns. The claims are in the California mining district and are rated by those who know as very rich property.
 One afternoon MT. Joerss left camp with pail to fetch some water from a neighboring canyon, but was stopped half way by series of blood-curdling war whoops which he supposed en- anated from the thorax of an Apache hostile. At first he thought of flight, but MT. Joerss is rather portly and well along in years, and upon consid- ering the matter decided to stay where he was and try conclusions with the Indians. Having waited several min utes and no Indian appearing he wen- ded his way back to camp whree to his great disgust he learned the supposed war whoops were nothing more nor less than Pete Hansen's agonizing rendition of Sweet Maria" Both MT. Joesrs and Pete are sun-browned and healthy ss Indians from their weeks exposure to the weather. AN APPALLING CATASTROPHE.
 MT. John smith has 6 COW, thereby hangs tail, also s tale. For some months this COW has been regaling herself with the contents oi the barrel that contains the refuse from Mrs. Crossey's restaurant. Of late she has developed a tendancy to kick over the tub every night after finishing her repsst. To prevent this Mrs. Crossey had the tub tied hard and fast to the fence. Last night the COW called as usual and becoming exceedingly wroth at the innovation in her grub dispen- ssry jammed her horns in the fence and packed tub, fence and all down the street until the fence became fastened to MT. Medigovich's fence, The COW wanted to go but the fence said "divil go" and when she finally did get loose she left one oi her horns in the fence. Mrs. Ciossey is bewail- ing her wrecked fence, John Smith IS going to pu; his COW ID a museum as unicorn.

sTEER-rYIyG CONTEST.

The steers were brought to the scene from Overlock's slaughterhouse by a number of willing cowboys, and the entries numbered seven. The judges appointed were J. U. Vaughan, James Cox and Cris Robinson, and the time keepers were Chas. Overlook and c. c. Warner.
 The contest wac most exciting, and it was here the cowboy, wrought up 10 degree of intense excitement and emotions as to the outcome, could be seen in all his glory. With each contest or at any critical moment of the sport a round of deafning yells would go up reaching the heavens. To see the amount Of money that was being bet. all thought of hard times and contrac- tion of currency would certainly be dispelled. Betting among the cow boys was continually gong on, and many dollars changed hands on the result. Each of the cowboys did well although it was apparent some disad- vantage or bad luck was in store for each of the runners. Vim. Vaughan carried of the honors and first prize of $50, and James Lowry came out second best and received S25.
 Mir. Vaughan demonstrated his dex- terity and expertness with the lasso on several occasions during tine day, and he certainly would have broken the record in steer-tying had he not had the misioytune of his horse slip

 James Lowry, who secured the sec ond prize, is left handed and a crack roper. His steer was down Tn less time than il takes to tell it but his tie rope was broken and considerable delay was caused in making the steers feet secure. His time was :l5..

 HORSE RACES.
 The free for all horse race for a quarter of a mile was run from let street on Fremont, the outcome being on 9th, The streets were lined with people on either side of the course and the race watched with interest. Two entries were made in this race by Ben Sneed and Vim. Brow. The lat ter carried of the $50 prize. This was a good close race and considerable money changed hands on the judges decision.
 The con so!ation race for 300 yards cowponies, had three entries-Messrs, H. T. Appel, Burt Alvord and Tuck Potter entering their favorite steeds. Tuck Potter came by the mark win ner, and SEQ repliniahed his purse.
