THE MINISTER SON.

A most deserving and credit table troupe presented TT h e Ministers Son." at the opera house Thursday evening to a good house on the lower floor. The gallery gods were aware of the nature of the play to be pre- sented and were conspicious by their absence.
 The drama is clever and so were the people who took part, but w. B. Patton as star rises above the level of his associates as the snow capped peak over the mountain foot hills. He is an actor who demonstrates the force of the manner in which a thing is said rather than what is said. He mixes pathos and hu- nor adroitly and changes tears into mirth. Only an extended criticism could do justice to MT, Patton's unusual gifts and we have not the time. Let us con- clude hoping that he may come again.

The Arizona hast- ern railroad of which Colonel Epes Randolph of this city is president, won. decisive victory over the Phoenix and Eastern of Florence on Monday of this week, when Judge Fletcher NJ. Doan after hearing all of the evidence in re- gard to the disputed right of way between Kelvin and Dudleyyille on the north bank of the Gila river, ruled in favor of the Arizona Eastern. This means that the grade already constructed by the Phoenix and Eastern will revert to the Arizona Eastern. The attor- news for the Phoenix and Eastern have announced that they will ap- peal to the Supreme Court. The commissioner of the general land office has already ruled in favor oi the Arizona and Eastern and the
 Phoenix and Eastern may appeal from his decision to the Secretary of the Interior.

The fire broke out in the rear of L. D. Redlield's store, but there is no clue to it's origin.

The trial is set at the request of the defense in behalf of Mir. Murphy. It is well known fact that Hugh H. Price, who IS the most important witness in the case, is not able to attend court and in all probability the remain. ing indictments against Mr. Mur- phv will be dismissed by the court on Monday for lack of prosecution The indictments against Hugh Il Price are held over pending the ability of MT.
