ton, Chloride and Hermosa, a Mexican
band furnished the music, Fire-crack
ers were set off at intervals during the
dance which reminded some of the
wild and woolly ways when ptht
boys used to get too much liquid en-
thusiasm aboard and shoot off theil
snperauous guns, but now it was al
in fun and peacefulness. There was q
sumptuous supper served at the Black
Range hotel at midnight and the dance
was kept up until about 8 o'clck in the
morning. The outdoor festivities ar
ranged for the fourth, such as horse
and foot races with a ring tourna'
ment, had to be given up on account
of a heavy rain, but a large audience
assembled at the hall to hear Hon. K,
NJ. " bite deliver the Grafton Of the
day. Mr.. White fulfilled all the expec-
tations of his audience and was fire.
Quently applauded, and made the indie
pendent free and unlimited coinage of
silver and gold at the ratio of 16 to l

all the guests from afar had remained,
and as the youth and beauty Of Fair
view decided they would enjoy dane

ranged for the evening Of the fourth
which was voted even more enjoyable
than the one on the previous evening;

Mrs. Charles Yaple and Hon. Dick
White, who were applauded for the
way in which they lightly tripped the
steps of this most vivacious and grace

One of those neat, handsome little
side-combs of tortoise shell ornament
ed with silver, which the girls use to
confne their hair, was picked up on
the day following the dance at Fair

HERMOSA.

Hon. Richard Mansfield White went
up from here to deliver the Indepen-
dence day Grafton at Fairview and to
attend the ball there ON the evening Of
the third of July.
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Hearn rode
down here from Fairview on the morn
ing Of the fourth of July and lost no
time during the ride, they reported that
the ball on the evening Of the third at
the Fairview opera house was great
success.
Those, who had determined to 60
from Hermosa the Independence Day
celebration at FSirYiew, found that
their horses had strayed away, so that
as walking was hot work and tiresOme,
they concluded to remain at home and
have a picnic and a dance here.
The picnic on the fourth of July
was held at the grove of cottonwood
trees on the Bull Frog mine which ia
about half way between the upper
and lower camps. The outrageous
foliage here makes a perfect shelter
from the fierce rays Of the midday sun
and the Rio Palomas always has living
water at this point which aids l II
keeping the air cool. There was a
dance at the town hall in the evening,
but some Of the ladies arrived there
in u dampened condition on account of
a slight rain, and the %sprinkling which
they received from the low, oyerhang-
ing branches of the trees along the
road, but this did not dampen their
spirits at the dance which was a great
success. THE BLACK RANGE has be-
fore this said that these low, hanging
branches ought to be cut away so that
the very thing which happened nigh,
be avoided, namely; the wetting of
persons driving between upper and
lower camp. The stones were partially
picked from the road as advised but
the equal nuisance, the low hanging
branches, have not been removed,
some one whose road tax is due ought
to be set to work cutting them I'M
mediately.

A good rain yesterday set the creeks

Good, soaking rains have occurred
during the past week and vegetation is
rapidly springing up.
Jas. Wing and Ed. James have taken
q lease and bond on the Dreadnaught.
They commenced work on the mine
this week and have plenty of good ore
in sight.
Through the request Of several of
our citizens Richard Mansfield White
delivered a fourth Of July Grafton and
silver address to the people here Sun
day evening, which was attentively
listened to by an appreciative audience.
He made a strong plea for silver and
advocated the uniting Of all siverItes
of all political parties. United we
stand, divided we fall.
The fourth was a quiet day for Chic
ride. AT noon time the people assem-
bled at tie grove near the Castle house
and listened to Rotations and readings
by the the school children, after which
a bountiful repast was served by the
ladies'. Immediately after dinner a
glorious downpour of rain occurred
promptly checking any further attempt
at holiday making.
One Of our fair correspondents has
sent in the following about Dick
White and his Grafton on the fourth of
July:

FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.

The fourth of July celebration at
Fairview began at shutdown on the
third Of July, and was continued up TO
70 o'clock at night on the fourth OF
July, when the scruples of those who
were religiously and %devoutly dispos-
ed, and these who expected religion
and were tired, caused the festivities
to close on the beginning of Sunday.
The ball at the town hall on the eve
of the fourth was largely attended,

FATRVIEW.

John Cook and Nose Gibson came in
from Magdalena to help celebrate.
Grafton and the neighboring ranches
were well represented at the dances.
The dance on the night of the third
was we'll attended, and enjoyable; the
dance on 5he night Of the fourth was
equally well attended, but more enjoy
able.
Richard Mansfield White, of Her
mOsa, who was our orator on the 4th,
addressed a large and appreciatiye
audience in the town hall. Our patri-
Otism was aroused, and our loyalty to
silver strengthened, and we hope to
have the pleasure of hearing Mr.. White
again at no distant day.
The small boy with tin horn and
f~re-crackers was not so much in evil
dence as we thought he would be, and
he was missed though scarcely regret
ted. Everything passed off here IN an
roderly manner on that day Of days
when a little extra exhilaration
might be excused.
The raiustorm on the afternoon of
the Fourth put more than a damper on
the sports arranged to begin at three
o'clock-it was In fact, an extinguisher.
Disappointment oyer the loss of amuse-
ment was compensated, however, by
the joy felt by all over the good such
a downpour would do the country, and
the the cattlemen looked radiant.

CHICAGO, Dec. 19.-In wheat the bear
ish feeling which has been so prominent
the past week was less in evidence at the
opening. Liverpool also sent reports on
the wheat crop In various provinces of
Argentine, showing a serious condition of
affairs in some instances. Opening quo
tations for May were from SO1s to SOA,
compared with yesterdays closing price of
79la. The price took dip to 79s4 soon after
the opening on the throwing over Of a lot
of London wheat, but the market had too
much statistical support to break badly
from such a cause ,and as soon as the pres
sure was removed prices went up again.
The receipts at both the northwest points
and in Chicago were very small Mime
apolis and Duluth reported 376 cars and
Chicago SO cars, a total of 412 cars COM
pared with Cos cars on the same day last
week and S72 on the corresponding day of
the year before. The official figures on the
New South Wales wheat crop showed
shortage of 1,120, 900 bushels of home re-
quirements. The seaboard reported
good inquiry for export, one dispatch from
New York saying 1t was known there that

ers took 10000 bushels here. The visible
supply is not expected to show over 25o, 900
bushels decrease on Monday, and some
look for a small increase. The pronounced
weakness of oats made its influence felt
shortly before the close. Realizing was
