Florence Tribune: It most not be forgotton that one of the great natu- ral resources of Pinal county, is it's coal fields. Wiley NJ. Weaver, general manager os the Crescent Coal comp any, of Gallup. N M., and an expert on coal formations, visited the Deer Creek measures last week and pro- nounces "the area of coal-bearing land extensive, the lodges large and the quality of coal excellent;" he also con- siders it a good coking coal. This corroborates the report of the United States Geological Survey, which says 1t is "an extensive tut undeveloped de- posit of bituminous coal. the beds being from five to ten feet in thick ness" In extent and value of it's un- developed resources no other county in Arizona approaches Pinal.

The Gentry show.

Monday the people of Nogales, both large and small, were delighted with the Gentry Dog and Pony show, which gave four performances to large and well pleased audiences. A inner az gregation of trained animals was never before gathered under a single canvass, and every performance was star in his particular line. The exhibition showed that an inehaustible fund of patience and application must have been devoted to bringing all the num. erous ponies, dogs and monkeys, aggregating more than two score, Co such a pitch of perfection. Not the least of attractions were the two trained dwarf elephants. All the at taches and attendants were gentle manly and obliging, and they made many friends among the citizens of the line cities who will look forward with eagerness to their return next year, when they will probably visit Hermosillo, Mlnas Prietas aud Guay mas.
