Mack and Lombard mines should be made paying properties.
 w. w. Brunk, who has for some time been pastor of the Methodist church at ! Flagstaff, and who is well known in 1 Williams, passed through this morning on trip around the world. Rev. Brunk is a southern gentleman, having the affability of the old time gentry. He is a graduate of the University of Virginia. although he has lived in Cal ifornfa for some time. He will leave San Francisco in a few days and will spend some time in the Hawaiian is lands. He will go thence to Japan and the Orient. Journeying westward he will stop at Jerusalem and Egypt and cruise up the Nile. His trip will con- sume about six months. during which time he vii see most of the continent and England. MT. Brunk intends to follow featuring after returning to this country
 Attorney Jones was in town this week on professional business. MT. Jones is one of the old time politicians of this county and has host of friends. His paper, the Flagstaff Gem, is one of the leading papers in northern Arizona.
 Another very welcome caller this week was Tom Pulliam, the county re- corier. who is completing his second term in this office. Probably no office holder has more friend than he. and none are mere efficient MT. Puliam has recently become a partner in one cf the leading businesses in Flagstaff, and is out of politics for the present.
 The' recent change in the time of the e hnnn,I ha can practically an evening paper in Williams and other points along the line. We get the news here in the ev- ening, published in Phoenix in the morning. and associated press dispatch eE.
 One of the hardest rains of the sea- son began hsre about in the afternoon Thursday, and continued for some hours. Hailstones as large as hickory nuts fell covering the ground followed immediately by the heavy rain. This did vast amount of good to the stock men of this section of the territory as well as giving new life to vegetation generally.
 A large drove of horses passed through here this week on the way to Dodge City, Kas. They were in pretty hard shape to say the l5ast. It is to be hoped that the grazing of that country will do them good, if they live long enough to get there. We are informed that 5000 head of cattle are being ship ped from Mohave county 10 California. r ar Bakersfield, to range. Up to now the outlook for stockmen has been very discouraging, but it seems that the rainy season has set in and the ravines are running full. and the weather gives the appearance of being thoroughly settled for the rainy season.
 The new store that has been opened by the Twitty Bros. in the new Parker building is one of the neatsst in Will Hams. They carry a complete line of groceries and have things arranged in metropolitan style.
 Attorney Doe, of Flagstaff, is in Will Hams today working on the settlement of the Grand Canyon railroad. It is generally understood that here will be settlement of some kind this week. With the exception of the Manistee and Saginaw Lumber companies all credi- tors are agreed upon the proposition made by the Santa Fe road. If a set clement is arrived al the Canyon road will pass into the hands of the Santa Fe system.
 MT. and Mrs. Sims leave today for an extended trip throughout the east.
 MT. Dermot, the manager of the Sag inaw Lumber Go. arrived in Williams this week, and has begun his new work as manager of the company. MT. Der mot has had eXtend-d experience in this work, and will doubtless make an efficient man for this place.
 Mir Dempsy, of Manistee, Michigan, l is here for a few days with friends who are connected with the lumber compa- n.y. MT. Gardner, also of the same | place, is also paying his friends visit.
 Miss Ethel Marine, of Flagstaff, who | is employed as one of the public school | teachers for the ensuing year. is now in | Williams. Miss Marine com5s highly | recommended
 Williams has experienced many inn provements this year in the shape or | fire business buildings. This gives a | very encouraging outlook for the town. Some of the buildings that have been | erected this season are the best that | have thus far been put up in Williams.
 Bill Williams mountain and vicinity | are certainly the sportsmens' paradise, as this locality is thick with game. Almost daily reports come in that mul- tftudes of deer, and antelope are seen upon the mountains, as well as good many bears. Wild turkeys are ire uuently heard near the town. The old miners relate that only a few years ago deer w5re so plentiful that they could shoot them from their back yards. The law has been such the last few years that the deer have had time to Increase very noticeably, or at least the law has been observed.
