The Arizona sentinel., 1904-09-28

ers, Misses Edith and Marcia, returned
last week from an extended tour oil
the east. Speaking of the Worlds
Fair, Mr.. Townsend said it is too big
to be seen properly in a short visit,
nevertheless he was impressed with
its beauties and wonders; be was also
impressed with the high prices In
vogue for the benefit of fair visitors.
Their eastern visit was the most en-
joyable part of the trip, having spent
some time at and near his bCyhoOd
home in New York State. They also
spent several days in the great met
ropolis, and the young ladies were
especially interested in the sights to
be seen in the big city, as we'll as those
to be found in Kansas City and Chi
cago, few days being spent in both
cities. Mr.. Townsend says the trip
was worth all and more than it cost, in
the pleasure alone it furnished Misses
Edith and Marcia, to say nothing of
his own enjoyment.
Surveyor General f. S. Ingalls, came
down from Phoenix Monday morning
to talk politics a little, have q social
visit With his friends and register for
the coming election. Captain Ingalls,
thinks Yuma the coming town of the
southwest, although he has a good
word for the capital and says Phoenix,
before many moons, will be on the
main line of two trans-continental rail
roads, and the future of that city is, of
course, very promising. Bob Doll, a
well-known Phoenix resident, came
down with General Ingalls,. He con-
cluded after looking around a little,
that the gate city is a conner. Both
gentlemen returned on Monday nights
train.
