What proved to be the worst
wlndstorm of years took place in
this county last Wednesday
The wind and dust was simply
fierce and old residenters state
that it was worst since March
81, 1892. The wind of this week
tore down the awning in front of
the city meat market and wreck
ed the one in front of the White
Swan Grocery store. So far as
we have heard there was no
other damage done in this town
or county.

The Georgians of Augusta are
chuckling over new story
about Mr.. Taft.
Mr.. Taft, it seems, drove out
one afternoon to see a Georgia
planter. The planters cook, a
very old woman, takes no inter,
est in public affairs, and she did
not recognize the portly guest.
What did you think of that
gentleman, Martha?" the planter
asked, after Mr.. Taft had driven
off.

WILL BUILD NEW RESIDENCES.
Two Canyon City Residents VIII Begin Erection
Of Modern Homes at Early Date.

Residence building in this town
and county has become "a very
common matter during the past
eighteen months. The number
that have been built would be
surprising to even those who are
somewhat acquainted with the
conditions and to those who have
not investigated the matter it
would be revelation.
Canyon City is to have two more
modern cottages at an early date
according to reports. 1t is said
that Claude n. Harrison would
soon begin the erection of nine
room bungalow at a cost of $500
on his lot where his present
house stands. He will remove
the present house to another lot.
D. L. Holland, who recently
sold his large ranch holdings
southeast of this city, is to begin
large residence southwest of
the square some time during the
coming week. 1t is said that
this residence will cost some
thing like $4,000. Is also rumor-
ed that one of our bankers will
soon begin the erection of brick
residence which will cost him
about $500. Verify Canyon
City is building up with substan-
tial residences.

THE VALLEY DAT CONTEST

The Tempe news column gives an item on some big oats raised to match those of Chaplin Scotts at Scottsdale. Chaplain Scott says congratulate Tenn pc on doing well, but all that is need ed now is to keep their oats growing another foot or so. The sample he gave to Rev. A. B. Tomlinson to exhibit at Tempe was picked up along the edges of the forty acre tract and was not up to the standard. The sample put in the board of trade rooms at Phoenix was eight feet six inches, and three fourths of the bundle of heads was S5k inches long. The chaplain says keep the oats growing it may be that his oats can be matched, if not beaten. When S15 feet is reached let him know and he will be glad to take off his hat to the one who beats him.
 WHO WANTS A BULL DOG?-A stray bull dog has appeared at 712 East Adams street and taken up his abode. The residents at that number are in no special need of a bull dog, in fact, would a little rather he would go somewhere else, and particularly as he is a vicious sort of an animal, and has very bad habit of running out at passersby and either trying to bite them or scare them to death. The po- lice have been informed of his tactics, but hate to kill him, for he is an ani- maj that would doubtless be prized by some one, and has probably strayed away from his owner Any person who has lost a bull dog should look over the specimen at TIP East Adams street and do so at once, for his days are numbered and are getting mighty few at that, unless some one brings him an almanac with new dates in It.
 TERROR OF AUTO DRIVERS Usually the drivers of horse vehicles have a terror of automobiles which by their weight and action in time of miX-up give a carriage the worst of it. But Harry Friedman has a two wheeled cayuse cart that the autos are learning to shy around. His latest experience was at the corner of Center and Adams. He was going south on Center and an auto was pounding along easterly on Adams, both being on the right side of the street and both drivers alertly watch ing the streets they were on for a clear right of way, neither paying as much attention as he should to the cross street. Friedman crossed the bow of the auto being well in the lead. but the machine being un- der faster speed constantly gained, with the result that the rear of the cart was caught by the machine In- stead of smashing the cart and kill ling the driver, as might have been expected under the operation of na- tural law, the cart took a headlight off the auto as slick and clean as though it had been severed by the

 A CASTLE CREEK MlNE-A cor respondent of The Republican writes as follows: "The Deleway mine is looking good again, and the. drifting will be continued. The drift is in 175 feet, and very fine ore is coming in. In ten days more the mine will look as good as ever. In the winZe we had very fine ore down seventy feet, then some gangue matter came into the vein and the rock was low grade. With a further sinking of thirty feet the min eral showing began to improve. The ore in the face of the drift is a very heavy copper sulphide.'
 TUCSON lINE-UP-Efforts are being made to get the Southern Pa cific to run a special eXcursion' next Sunday to Tucson to take the Salt River valley nine and their admireres over. The Phoenix boys are going to win the game with the Tucson team just to lend a certain prestige to the newly formed team. The lineup of the Tucson nine has just been re- ceived. It will be Hart and Bottom, pitchers; Woods, catcher; Boltz, first base: Reister, second base; Phelim, third base; Godfrey, short; Sullinger. Stevens, McGee and Hudson in the Outfield.
 DISTRICT cOURT-One more con- viction was obtained in district court yesterday, that of Ephraim Richards indicted for the burglary of the Mesa Bakery It did not take the jury long to announce it's conviction of the truth of the facts set forth in the in dictment. Antonio Lusana, who had been indicted for assault with intent to commit murder by attacking Ana stacio Pallas and a woman with whom Lusana had formerly lived, withdrew his plea of not guilty and pleaded guilty He asked for an i'm mediate sentence and was given a term of four years in the peniten- tiary George Campbell, who had pleaded guilty to an indictment for forgery, was sentenced to a term of two years.

BUCKEYE RAILROAD RIGHT OF WAY-H. M. Lewis and wife, c. B. King and wife and Miss Nellie Hes lin, spent couple of days or portions of two days in a trip through the Buckeye and Arlington country. The purpose of the gentlemen was to con- fer with the settlers concerning the right of way for the proposed PhOe- nix & Buckeye railroad, as commit .teemen appointed by the board of trade. The purpose of the ladies was to have nice ride and see the coun- try. The whole party returned fully satisfied with the result of the trip. The gentlemen report that the settlers are very much enthused over the railroad project and they do not believe any trouble will be experi- enced in securing the right of way. Incidentally the committeeman sound ed the settlers a little on the subject of the bonus, though that matter is in the hands of another committee. They found that the sentiment had been well represented by Messrs. Norton, Day and others, who spoke for the lower country in the public meeting. Some of the farmers are a
 little pressed for ready money, owing to their expenditures for canal inn
 provements, etc, and may ask for little longer time on the bonus, but
