"UNcLE JOSH" COMING.

The most beautiful story of Ameri- can life told on the stage will be pre- sented at the Doris opera house We'd nesday, Oct. 25. The famous play of Uncle Josh Spruceby" is a story of New England farm life full of fun that keeps the audience in a merry mood through tne four acts and with a vain of pathos that will cause a tear or two to tricl1le down the cheek. The scene is laid in Vermont and some of the characters are taken from life and daily habits of the people the author met there. The company presenting the play this season is an efficient one, and in addition to considerable special scenery, a first class orchestra fills an important part of eight sOlOists. This musical organization has a worldwide reputation and is under the direction of a talented leader and composer of note. A very popular program is ren- dered between the acts. A big band is carried by the company, and a novel and unique parade is given at noon daily and includes a concert by the band. A carload of special scenery and mechanical effects are used. The realistic saw mill scene is one of the most startling pieces of stagecraft ever produced. 20 people are in the com pany which is the largest production

James Gibson on this east side of the creek, I must say that I have never seen corn-fed and ripe for slaughter, or in the exhibition stalls of county and state fairs, finer specimens than the yearling and two yearling short horns which Morris and Gibson have had ranging here for four years past. As they meander about (tOo fat for crazy stampeding) their slick, gIOsy hides reflect the sun like mirrors.
 About five years ago Logan Morris put on this part of the range a bunch of about 40 young cows, with one splendid bull, all shorthOrns, thor oughbred. These endured over three years of misery, as well as the other breeds peculiar to the Arizona stock. When at early evening of once a week. apparently for a convention, distracted meeting or dance, the cattle of Cook and Jack Gibson meet those of Logan
 Morris and James Gibson at the creek there seems to be human joshing at each other in their roaring. The hardy bully boys from the west side, whom imagine clad in blue denim Overalls and jumpers, roar def1antly at those of NJ. & c. on the east side: "Oh, can toss over the moon any of you paper collar dudes!" This is directed to Loge's Durham bully boys, clad in creased pants, low cut vest and swaI- low-tail coat. They are all alike, in

excellent condition, as far as I can ihear from the Cartwright Bros. and Woodson, on the upper creek, to Tom Mercer and Ferris and Harrington, on the Verde. God knows these cattle men deserve prosperity after ten years of flair to middI'ng" and the reverse.
 Four years ago the Linvilles went out of cattle into 9 herd of 100 fine bred Angora goats. These, ever since, have been kept on a few square miles above the Phoenix mine. Notwith- standing an acidental loss of over 100 head, two years ago, and the sale and slaughter right along for mutton of a few head at a time, this herd has in creased to about 5000 head a month ago, when they cut out and sold 600 head to MT. HOuck, who at once took them to the Kansas City market. The mOhair clipped is valuable, and con- siderable in weight. I understand that the Linvilles have decided on a yearly maximum of 5000 head, and the sale of 500 to 800 each year, which with their mohair makes the venture a satisfactory one. Jas. L. Cant and son have a herd of 800 head of an other breed of goats ranging higher up the creek.

have waited this long to ascertain the effect of the warm days and nights that have since intervened- I am glad to say that the feed all over the range has since taken a fresh start, and that the outflow of springs (which had not yet appreciably diminished) is swell ing in volume. Cave creek yet runs on the surface to d point opposite the Linville homes. I hear also that the ancient water sheds in Winnefred mining district, in the west end of Paradise valley, were filled, as also the ponds all along the Verde canal If we have a rain yet in October, and one or two in November Gas we ancient natives eXPec) the feed and water supply of Paradise valley will be so abundant that the transient sheep men can at once, on their arrival on this range, place their herds there. For various reasons the sheep men prefer to graze on that valley. And since cattle do not range there-only the wild horse herd-the cattle men will, of course, concur.
 For cattle men, thank God, have nothing but the best possible news. The enormous mesquite bean crop of this season, maturing a month later than heretofore, has added solidity to the neat weight of cattle already in excellent condition. Personally, I see only the herds of Logan Morris and of

MORE NEW SCHOOL TEACHERS
But There is Plenty of Room for all
 ofThem.

The territorial board of examiners has passed upon the credentials of an other class of applicants, though real ly the applications come singly, rather than in clesses. It is only chance that several are passed upon at once.
 First grade certificates were granted to the following named: Agnes D. Dan iels, of GiIa county, on a state life di- pIoma, issued in California; Lily $. Morgan, of Maricopa county, on state normal diploma, issued in West Virginia; Matte L. Hoffman, of Ma vajo county, on a state life certificate, isued in Minnesota. A second grade certificate was issued to C. Henry An derson, of Apache county, on sate normal diploma, issued in Utah.
 This is all very good, but there should be more of them. The terri torial and county school superintend- ents are still unable to fully supply the demand for teachers, for Arizona s school population is growing rapidly, and all these youngsters demand and must have educations.
 Even in the Phoenix schools there

It has been necessary during the past month dOr several of the teachers to resign, through unavoidable circumstances, as was the latest incident. that of Miss Holmes.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE MAGNITUDE OF PAINS
 HPOMPEIIO

POM MPEIis"
 The climax of managerial daring and ingenuity would seem to have been reached in the stupendous production of Pains thrilling pyrotecnnic display, Last Days of Pompeii,' which will be seen in this city on the night of Oct. 23 and 24. Heretofore, on account of the tremendous expense of production, these famous displays have been con fined to only the larger cities and big international fairs and expositiOns. For several seasons Henry J. Pain and his general manager, H. B. Thearle, have been seeking to perfect a plan where by the exhibition could be transported in it's entirety and produced in the smaller cities, the same as the largest cfrcuses; but Last Days of Pompeii" is so much greater an affair than even the largest circus, and the vastness of the necessary paraphernalia and the great number of people required to give an adequate production of the spec tacle was simply appalling and al- though tremendous attendance was certain to be drawn, the expense look ed too great to warrant the risk.
 l Within the past year however, they have successfully evolved a scheme and perfected plans for a portable exhibi- l tion on a most elaborate scale. Since last November a small army of pyro- l Itechnists, electricians, carpenters, scenic artists, costumers, etc, have been at work in the Pain work shops at ParkvilIe, L. l., and on May 1 the great task was completed for the road The productions given are on quite as extensive a scale in every respect as are seen at Manhattan Beach, N. Y. Three hundred people participate in Pompeii's stirring scenes; four acres of massive scenery represents the an cient Roman City, and an immense amphitheater with a capacity for ten thousand people is provided for it's spectators. The show also carries its own electric stage lighting plant, which has a capacity large enough for
 good-sized city, and the entire out
