A Tombstone Lamp.

A quiet, yet impressive little incl dent occurred last evening, calling to our minds the swiftness of the flight of time. and the slender tenure of which the old pioneers who happen to survive, are holding on to life On this occasion. Judge Duncan present ed Paul. B. Warnekros with a plain glass lamp as a souvenir. Perhaps there IS not an article in his whole stock, regardless of value, that he would not sooner. part with than that old lamp.
 On the first day of December, 1879. Judge Duncan bought that lamp from Paul B. Warnekros, who was then a salesman for J. B. Allen, on the cor nerk of 4th and Allen Streets. At that time this camp was in Pima county, and all there was of Bisbee was known as Warren's camp. In. dians were thicker than fleas on a Mississippi sand bar, and if that old lamp could remember and repeat the history of the community during the period of its existence, 1t would make great reading. Mir. Warnekros is as proud of that lamp as a small boy of his first pair of red top boots-Tomb- stone Prospector.

The JariIias-

Tuesday E L. Ish, superintendent of the Jarillas mines, came in for sup plies and incidentally to shake hands with old friends.
 Mir. Ish had a, splendid report to make to President Dr. A. L. Gustet- ter, who is very enthusiastic over the splendid showing made. Mir. Ish has fifteen men at work and is now estab- fishing a steam hoist sent out last week from Roy & 1'itcomb, Inc. Splendid high grade ore is being taken out for shipment to the Fl Paso shelter which will give the lucky stockholders good returns.
 The mines are owned by the Jarillas Mining Company a close incorporation organized by P. E. Murray of this cty. All of the treasury stock. except a few hundred was taken by local peo- pie at S4 % per share. It is DOW $500
 The success of the mines means much for Nogales as all the supplies for the camp and machinery. etc, for the mines will be bought from our merchants.
 Dr. A. L. Gustetter is president, F. E. Murray vice president and mana ger. Dr. l.. T. Bristol secretary, and w. F. Overton treasurer. The above named gentlemen with Henry Van Derleck and Dr. Messick make up the board of directors.
 In the big window of the Interna tional Bank building are number of sa ns ples of very rich ore taken from the mines. They look good to laymen and better to a mining man.
 TIE VIDETTE wishes the Jarillas and all interested, success.

To Discuss Joint Statehood

Tke members of the Territorial Bar Association in this city are in receipt of communication from the president of that organization, Jerry Millay, of Phoenix, which is sent out by the secretary, Thomas J. Prescott, from the capital city, inviting them to come there on the 2lst and take part in a special meeting which will be called at ? p. m. on the date men, toned, for the purpose of discussing g ths Statehood bill pending in Con - gress. The invitation concludes i.y requesting the members, if they can not be present, 10 send in their views on the matter by mail.
 Owing to the press of business which is just now occupying the atten- ton of most of the prominent attorn- eys of this city. and the coming g Christmas festivities, It Is very doubt ful whether this locality will be repre- sented in any distinctive showing, but of course the reasons spoken of do not prevent the gentlemen from reply by letter requested, and in all probabil- ity most of them will do this.
 As matter of course, the bar of Phoenix will be present and probably some of the members from Prescott, owing to the comparative facility of getting there against the route from Tucson, and at any rate, there will be enough representatives to voice the sentiment of the Territory as to the issue-Tucson Citizen.

Queer Legal Situation.

A rather unusual and interesting situation exists in our local justice of the Peace office. J. W. Grant, who was elected to that office at the No vember election, is now in New York on important mining business which will certainly detain him until some- time in January The case is such a one that prevents his leaving New York until a settlement is effected, and it involves many thousand dol lars If Mir. Grant Is not here at the beginning of January to qnalify for the office, either his predecessor, Judge Ashley, will continue in office until his successor qualities or the office will have to be declared vacant by the Board of Supervisors and that body will have to fill the vacancy by ap- pointment.
 Judge Grant was elected as a re publican. The Board of Supervisors is democratic, and 1t is presumed will appoint a democrat to the office in duce Judge Ashley to hold over.- Times.
