 Miss Evelyn Delaney entertained a company of her friends very pleasantly at her home last Friday evening, but laid some rather taxing tasks upon her guests, for each one was required to f-h h h t,I. h.a title of some popular song. Some of the work was very artistic, Mir Rae and Mir. Florence eXcelling. IL was not so hard to represent the title as it was to guess what titles the sketches of others depicted. Mrs. R. r. Jame- son won the prize for the best guessing.
 The team attached to one of Web ster's stages ran away one morning last week, and had wild course about a mile down the canyon. They finally ran of the road into hole, so deep that they could not get out, and were captured there later. The only dam age the outfit suffered was a broken tire on one of the front wheels. Rod McDougall was riding in the canyon, and his horse was caught by the run away and badly cut, although Mir. Nc Dougall escaped harm. The canyon road is bad place for d runaway and a still worse place to meet one.
 Real estate operations are lively in Morenci. Several houses are soon to be erected and the good sites are al most all taken, at least on the D. C. side. It is good thing for the camp to have the shack" give way to the comfortable cottage. Every man feels better when he gets into his clean clothes and puts on his billed shirt, for good surroundings go far 10 make good man. So when the houses begin to take some pleasing shape, and speak of comfort and stability, the citizen be- gins to breathe different air, and feels more as if he was living, and not merely camping. There is no reason why in a town or camp whose perman- ency is well assured, the citizens should not take some time and thought for beautifying their surroundings. The streets of Glasgow were kept clean because every man swept in front of his own door. Let every citi- Zen do his share towards making even a mining camp q pleasant place to live in.
 Even the Bisbee boys could hardly complain of the way they were taken into camp on Saturday, although they may not have liked it SD well on Sun day. The team was met at Lordsburg by Chas. Mitchell, who was constituted a reception committee for MOrcnci. He safely piloted them oyer the wind ing of the A. & N. NJ. and the NJ. S, so that they reached Moronci about : 30 D. ID. The Morenci band was out to receive them and Manager Puckett and many others gave them q hearty Il nN 1a HhN ct ceived the first attention and admira- tion of the visitors, but there was mething else to be disposed of. A substantial dinner had been prepared at the Puckett mess. After attending to this, the party spent the rest of the evening at the shelter. Sunday morn ing Superintendent Mills placed special train at the disposal of the team and the reception committee, on which they made tour of the camp. The possibility Of ride on the 20-inch gauge were amply revealed, but it was said that some of the team still retain ed their preference for Pullmans and the standard gauge. A short eXcur- sion was made in the West Yankie mine and then the party returned to take the stage for Clifton. A large of the Morenci enthusiasts went to Clifton Tor the game, description of which is found in another column. The Morenci boys were very glad to get acquainted with the Bisbee team and glad to entertain them, for they were gentlemen and good fellows. May they live prosperously. The members of Manager Stiles party were Messrs. Morse, Godfrey, Howe, Brown, Graf, Bledsoe, Martinez, Armstrong, Lopez and Mullen. Come again, gentlemen.
