[ II ottfttsifN T ouIlS Mrs. Young returned last night from ! Tucson where they went to attend the Cinco de Mayo celebration. in honor of the Mexican holiday and the opening of the Twin Buttes railroad to No gales. They are the first of the PhOe- nix people to get hack and would not have come until today only that Mir. Young had to go north on business this morning.
 Speaking of the celebration last night he said it was fine success: couldn't have been better except that there were not enough Phoenix people in attendance. Mir. Young says the show was worth all it would have cost anybody to see il and as a purely business proposition and to show a friendly spirit. he thinks there should have been at least 500 people there from Phoenix, The celebration is to Tucson. all that the annual fair is to Phoenix and he regrets that a greater enthusiasm concerning it was not awakened here.
 Mir Young says the streets of Tue son had been given q thorough clean ing and the whole town looked as spick and span as any city could. The decorations were profuse and fine; never saw anything better in that line. He has seen larger cities and more bunting in evidence but never more effective displays
 The city was full of notable visitors yesterday. among them being General Torres. military governor of Sonora and his staff; Governor Redo of Sin aloa and his staff. Governor Sloan and his staff. General Thomas. command ing the departmen; of the Colorado and his staff: and General Godfrey retired. Most Of the notables in the list were accompanied by their wives many of the ladies from the southern republic being very handsome women. General Torres brought along the fa- nous National band and a cavalry troop was present from Fort Huachu- ca, representing the American army Governor Redo, says Mir. Young. is q very handsome man and is grad uste of Yale university. Governor Torres is more democratic in his v.ays and is also decidedly popular with all who meet him.
 Yesterday there was a very spectac- ular parade which was reviewed by the dignitaries mentioned It was in some respects the most novel, inter esting and suggestive parade ever held in Arizona. First came the mounted police. followed by the University of Arizona cadets and the local conpa- nies Of the National Guard of Arizona Next came the Huachuca cavalry, and the members of three Mexican frater- nal societies. Many floats followed. one being in honor of President Diaz, another in honor of General Torres, one for General ZaragoZa, and one representing Liberty. The Tucson fire department in uniform was next in line and in its wake came big pro- cession Of Chinese escorting an i'm mense dragon which they had brought from Los Angeles especially for the occasion Finally the parade was end ed by procession of 16O0 pupils of the public, parochial and high schools of the city.
 The guests of the city were all hos pitaby entertained at the old Pueblo club and in the santa Rita hotel Last evening there was public reception at Elysian grove. q card party given by the ladies of the city in the old Pueblo club. and a banauet in the Santa Rita hotel at which the plates were $5 each and full value was guar anteed Tor the money. It is a celebra- tlon, says Mir. Young. that Tucson should be proud of and he is sorry he could not stay until it was over.
