The copper era. (Clifton, Graham County, Ariz.) 1899-1911, 1908-04-02
MORENCI ITEMS.

Walter Tappin, of Clifton, was the
guest of w. J. Arthur and family
last Friday.
A. T. Thomson, of Clifton, was the
guest of Mr.. and Mrs. Nonamaker
last Tuesday.
E. F. Whittlesey is having another
room built this week which will add
greatly to both the looks and con-
venience of his home.
NJ. H. Mclean made hurried trip
to Bisbee the fore part of the week.
He reports that camp to be in a
fiourishing condition.
Misses Dodge, Lloyd and Clarke and
Mrs. Hogan were viewing the scenery
in Metcaif and vicinity Sunday.
They report every thing in the min
ing line as humming around that
burg.
The d. G. company is putting rail-
ings on all the retaining walls in
Morenci and it is something that
was certainly needed as it not only
helps the looks of things but it adds
greatly to the safety of pedestrians.
The social at the school house on
Saturday evening was a decided sue
cess, in fact these entertainments
are becoming so popular that the
assembly room is not large enough to
accommodate all who wish to attend.
Mr.. Book, brother of our genial
physical director, i expected in from
the east the latter part of the week.
He will work for the company during
the day and in the evenings will have
charge of the club basement and the
news stand.
An inexperienced man attempted
to pull a badger on the plaza last
Tuesday evening and dislocated the
animals neck. 1t seems to US that
the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals should investi-
gate this case.
Mrs O'Connor, of Nogales, presi-
dent of the Rebekah assembly in Ari-
IONA, was a visitor in camp this week.
After her lecture the lodge gave a
rect ption in her honor. Refresh
ments were served and those who
were fortunate enough TO attend re-
port delightful time.
Mark and Albert Rumenapp re-
ceived word that their mother was
dangerously i'll and left for their
home in Michigan Saturday morning.
Their many friends here sincerely
hope that they will find their mother
much improved in health.
John Kiddie andsL. H. Talcott left
overland last Saturday to look at
some mining claims located about
twenty miles northeast of Duncan.
If the claims are as good as they
have been represented the boys ex-
pect to invest and thus lay the
foundation for future riches.
Last Sunday evening while stroll
ing across the plaza we noticed a
young lady with a base ball player
for an escort slowly climbing the
hill. Just as they reached the top
the young lady called out in a voice
rather hoarse from much roofing,
1--WE beat EN- which being inter
preted meant that after one of the
most closely contested ball games of
the season the score stood > to IN
favor of Morenci..
People who were looking for enter
tainment could certainly find some
thing to suit them on last Wednes-
day evening. A magician gave an
entertainment at the opera house
that was good; the Morenci band
gave a concert at the rink and
dancing and skating were kept up
until a late hour for those who enjoy
that kind of recreation while those
who are older grown attended lee
ture at the church given by an officer
in the Salvation Army; this was also
good. So taking it all around any
one who staid at home on Wednesday
evening did so from choice.
