= Hon. Sam Hughes states that the ell
ectrical storm of week ago was the
prandest he ever saw. He was at his
ranch about 20 miles west of town when
the storm came up. No rain fell in his
immediate neigh borhood, but about
four miles away the earth was deluged
as by q cloud burst. Heretofore be-
cause of it's peculiar situation in q val
ley rain has fallen Whereabouts when 1t
fell nowhere else, but this year it has
thus far skipped him entirely.-Tucson

1t has been proven without doubt
that Broncho Bill and his partner
Johnson attended a dance at Geronimo
last week. They spent over $500 m
the town and purchased five new suits
of clothes and other articles from j.
n. Porter, merchant at that place.
Detective Thacker and posse went
through last Wednesday-13th inst,
and unloaded their horses at Thomas
and started for the Black river. "Bron-
cho'' Bill does most OF the dancing
while johnson stands watch around
the door. Bill got too much liquor on
board at the dance and because a girl
refused to dance with him he pulled
both his sixsbooters and cleared the
hall. They bought every cartridge in
town that would fit their guns and lett
again for the hills.-Bulletin.
