Cowan of the First Methodist church.
The wedding was attended by forty
guests. There was a sumptuous we'd
ding dinner and a good musical pro-
gramme. The groom is quite well
known in the city and is one of the
proprietors of the Phoenix restaurant.
The bride. a charming young lady, ar
rived here lately from Texas.
ALL KINDS OF LUCK. Smith, the
tailor, was at one time familiar. leg
end in the advertising columns of the
Phoenix papers and while he lived here
he did well financially. He went to
Tucson and prosperity followed him,
but he longed for Phoenix society. so he
returned and married a Phoenix girl.
Then the real boom began. In course
of a year or two there was another
Smith in the family and now it is an
nounced in the Tucson papers that a
recent census shows four Smiths. The
latest addition is of the girl kind, reg
ular Phoenix-Tucson girl-a variety
that cannot be excelled.
A MAN OF PARTS Lee Gray,
farmer. lawyer. politician and mer-
chant, not long ago took charge of the
mining properties formerly managed
by c. H. Gray and associates. sixty
miles east of Dandy, Cal, and twenty
three miles west of the Colorado river.
1t is understood he is successfully de-
veloping the mines and not long ago
erected a three-stamp mill which is
giving excellent returns. According to
the Needles Eye he has recently added
the accomplishments of a sailor to his
qualifications by building a barge at
Needles, and as master of the craft
now transports supplies by water to
the river point nearest the mines. The
time will probably come when it will be
necessary to build a railroad into that
section and another field of operations
will be open to him.
