Brand the Calves.

The Range News gives the following bit ot excellent advice to Arizona Stock Men:
 While general roundup work has been completed. stoekmen in many localities are going carefully over the range second time to make sure that all calves are branded. Calves are now too valuable to be neglected, and, know- ing that the maverick hunter IS every where at work. owners are exercising double diligence this fall. It is to the interest of stoekmen to see that all calves on their ranges, whether belong ing to themselves or others, are pro- perly branded for the owner. The pre- sence of unbranded stock on any range will attracts rustlers as surely as car rion attract buzzards and when once on the ground they are not particular whose stock they get. His loss will be least who looks after his cattle most faith. fully.

A NEW FIRM.
Gibbons & Greer, of COnchO,
 General Merchandise.

Probate Judge L. R. Gibbons and Re- corder J. H. Greer have formed a CO., partnership and b ught out the gener- al merchandise store of Juan Candel- aria, Concho. and will hereafter conduct the business established some months slnce by Mir. Candelaria, who intends in the future to devote his entirs ener gies in the direction of his extensive sheep interests. He is probably the heaviest single sheep owner in Apache l county, and his Intere sts have grown until they demand his undivided atten- tion. We extend to the new firm our best wishes. and predict for it success in the new move. Judge Gibbons has had an extensive experience. and well knows the wants of the pa irons of the establishment and how to supply them. He was superintendent of the c. M. & NJ. l. here for some time, and was serv. ing in that capacity when selected as a successor to the late Judge Craig, few months since.

Indigestive poisOns are the bane of the dyspeptic's life When sick, see if your sickness is caused by indigestive poisons. If so, take Shaker Digestive Cordial. This is the only certain way of being permanently cured, because it is the only way that gets rid Of the poisons. You know that fermented food IS poisonous. You know that poison is unhealthy. Shaker Digestive Cordial clears the stomach of ferment- ing food, and urifies the blood and system of fIndigestive poi,ons. It cures indigestion and the diseases that come of It. Headache, dizziness, nausea, stomach-ache, weakness, fatuience, constipation, loss of appetite, irritabil- ity, ect. These are few of the symp- toms, caused by indIgestive poisons, cured by Shaker Digestive Cordial.

While the old favorites were on hand and sustained their parts with their usual ability, there were number of new and younger members of the two organizations drafted into the cast upon thls occasion, and they sustained their parts as we'll as the elders. Notably was this the case with the two young ladies. Miss Sarah Butler and Miss Louie Freeman, who divided the honors of the evening. Miss Butler, as Mar tha Gibbs, showed she possessed talent for acting in no slight degree, and Miss Freeman, as Lady Valeria, looked and acted lovely. Both young ladies were easy in their movements. while their pronunciation and articulation was as near perfection as that of any one we have ever heard in Assembly hall. The acting of these two beautiful young la- dies ma ade a success of the evenings entertainment. The acting of all the company was notably good. P. T. Cole man as Sir Arthur Lassell, Chas. Jar wis as Jasper Plumb, L. k. Gibbons as Stephen, and w. J. Mallory as Freder- ick Plumb, Were admirable, while Alex. Shreeve, as Toby Twinkle, did himself proud. The minor parts, Lady Leath- erbridge and Harris, were done by Mrs. s. A. Davis and Mir. Frank NIcolI, and Tn a very creditable manner.
 A crowded house greeted the compa- ny, and the play moved along very smoothly under the management Of David P. Overson. We hope the per- formance may be repeated at some date near future.
