venient transportation is concerned, and since it has become known that such a proposed line was in contem- plation, business men and property owners generally have been quick to endorse the new plans.
 Another important enterprise which is also under consideration by local capitalists is the building of an up- to-date park and recreation ground at some point along the proposed street railway line. or at its terminus. It Is proposed to lay out beautiful grounds, including flowers and grass plots, with baseball ground, and race track, an artificial lake. skating rink, etc, etc, and to make the recreation park a delightful place for an after noon outing.
 Last, but not least. there are rumors of a Bisbee Local Building and Loan Association, patterned after the Tucson Building & Loan Associa- tion, which has been in existence in that city for the past twenty years, and which has done more to build up Tucson and afford neat and com | fortable homes, at a minimum cost to it's inhabitants, than any other simi' lar organization in the west. We also learn that the City Council has under consideration the building of a splendid roadway from Main street up Tombstone Canyon to the | divide, and the condemnation of the l frame shack at the corner of Allen block, also a portion of the front yard of Superintendent Walter Doug
 las, making of the alley in the rear of Main street a desirable business | thoroughfare.
 These are some of the business and
 municipal projects that are being i talked about in the city, all intended
 for the improvement and growth oi Bisbee.

(Yuma Sun)

United States Marshal Ed Mooney and Leo Troutman, of Phoenix, who were in town Thursday, brought Jose Torres, convicted of selling liquor tc Indians, to the penitentiary to serve a term of a year and day.
 The sentence dates rom November of last year, Torres having been ar rested a short time before that. II has been the practice of the courts in imposing sentences to the penitentiary to use the words "the territGiaI pris. on at Yuma" Tn view of the fact that the prison will not always be there Judge Kent, in the case of Torres, em. ployed the words, "the territorial pris- on of Arizona" But the prison will prohahlx he at Yuma as long aa Tor.

Get from any prescription phar-
macist the following:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilNa, three ounces.
Shake we'll in bottle and take a
teaspoonful dose after each meal
and at bedtime.
The above is considered by an
eminent authority, who writes in a
New York daily paper, as the finest
prescription ever written to relieve
Backache, Kidney Trouble, Weak
Bladder and all forms of Urinary
difficulties. T b e mixture acts
promptly on the eliminative tissues
Of the Kidneys, enabling them to
filter and strain the uric acid and
other waste matter from the blood
which causes Rheumatism.
Some persons who suffer with the
Affections may not feel inclined to
place much confidence in this sim
pie mixture, yet those who have
it say the results are simply sur
prising, the relief being effected
without the slightest injury to the
stomach or other organs.
Mix same and give it d trial. 1t
certainly comes highly recommend
ed. 1t is the prescription Of an
eminent authority, whose entire
reputation, it is said, was estab-
lished by it.
A druggist here at home when
asked stated that he could either
supply the ingredients or mix the
prescription for our readers, also
recommends it as harmless.
