 AT BIG GATHERING

 WILLIE, AND LUNCH COM 6iNED IN FINE PROGRAM

One of the most successful social affairs of the winter season was given by the Lowell club last night, in celebration of moving into it's new quarters, the occasion being in the nature of a house warming About two hundred and fifty peonle were the guests of the club during the evening and at 6 bushes session of the club 100 new member were placed on the roll of membership.
 The features of the entertainment were wrestling and boxing or sparring matches. Joe Doris and Roy McAllister, both of Bisbee, wrestled three bouts with no fall w. R. Banks being the referee All three of the rounds were fast and both wrestlers exhibited clever tactics.
 In a four round sparring match of two minute rounds, E. c. Barkin and W. c. Pierce furnished an entertain ine exhibition, followed by a three round contest between Dutch Lind man and Ben Gravy. No decision was given. Both matches were re- fereed in a satisfactory manner by w. B. Banks. Several other stunts were seen and on the occasion of it's first public function of such character the new club made a decided hit.
 A lunch of sanwiches and coffee was served the guests during the evening.

ARBOR DAY ID BE
 OBSERVED FRIDAY
Bis6sE POST OFFICE WILL CLOSE WHILE PEOPLE PLANT
 GREEN THINGS

Friday, February 1. is holiday and the Bisbee post office will be closed. The general delivery window will remain open the same hours as on Sunday. The counties that will join Cochise in the celebration of the day are Gila, Graham. Maricopa, Greenlee. Pima. Pinal Santa Cruz and Yuma. February 3rd is not arbitrarily set as Arbor Day, but falls each gear on the Friday fol- lowing the first Monday in Feb Tuary.
 Arizona is probably the only state or territory in the Uuion in which any holiday falls on different dates within the confines of the state or territory There are holidays which are observed on different days. such as Memorial day in the south
 The day is properly celebrated. according to the governors pro clamation, by building up the work which George Washington was the beginner in tearing down. that of planting trees. vines. etc, and i'm proving one owns viro and fig tree. The birth of the idea If Arbor Day no doubt originated in the plan of forest conservation which has become one of the most important duties of the government and which has its heroes no less renowned than the army and the navy While the Father cf Our Country did not start out to deyastate the country with his little hatchet, those who have followed with their little hatchets have served to draw the attention of the whole country to the need Of protecting our forests and of improving the laudable am. bition of the man who made two blades of grass grow where only one grew before
 So. it is decreed by the governor of the territory. that the residents of Bisbee get out their garden tools Friday and dig a little hole in the ground and plant something. What ever you do plant something Lit tie drops of water, little grains of sand made a mighty ocean and a mighty land

b|SbEE COUNTS COUNTY SEAT
 CHICKS
Opinion Seems to Favor War ren As Site for Court
 House

Chairman Cunningham Of the com fnittee appointed by president Fran kenburg at Tuesday nights mass meeting held in the Fair hall, was called to Douglas on business yes- terday morning and there was no meeting of the committee yesterday and no fnrther collections were added to the fund to defray the expense Of sending a delegate to Washington to secure the passage of bill to remove the county seat from Tombstone and provide for an election for the selection Of a new county seat
 Already the matter of location, should Bisbee get the court house and county iafl. Is under discussion among the bushes men Outside of of Warren there seems to be but one other place, according to opin- ion. for the court house and that Is on the site of the old cemetery up Brewery gulch. There are no doubt places in the canyon where it might be located but as between that and Warren the latter is re- garded as nearer the center of population of the district and in the general discussion yesterday War ren seemed to have the call as the place of location Lowell has few advocates as the place for the site.
 It is pointed out that in selecting location the fact must be consid- cred that the county will grow and that any site selected must be large enough for any future addi- tions.
 Should the efforts of Douglas and ljisbee to have congress pass a bin removing the county seat avail, ihe first named city would enter the race for the plum with a handi cap, as Bisbee and the immediate district have the lead over Douglas in the matter of votes It is known. tAtNNfG4g AAaL DJuSlaS lS dtA tfhug in the field for the votes of people ia other parts of the county and that they have representatives working in Courtland. Wilcox and the Sup phur Springs valley, and they will seek to overcome the handicap with enough outside votes to SC. cure the location.
 Should the court house be award ed to Bisbee at the election and Warren selected as the site, there is talk of extending the street car line 10 Douglas making the court house easy of access to the people of Douglas. That Douglas will give up the fight, no one imagine.s and the truce lasts only until the bill providing for the removal of the county seat from Tombstone passes congress.

PEKIN, Feb. 1:-The discovery that twenty deaths from the plague have occurred at the Chinese hospi- tai at Tsin TsieQ have caused the suspicion that the real conditions are being concealed by the mis- sionaries. In doing this. however, they are merely complying with an imperial edict. IL is believed here that the plague is not diminishing and physicians attached to the legations have calculated there are 500 victims daily throughout the infected quarters.

MATRIMONIAL MATERIAL.

Picayune Announcement is made
that one hundred buxom English and
Irish girls have arrived on their way
to Canada, where they expect to become
wives of northwestern farmers Here's
a chance for tillers of the soil to land
first prizes, for there isn't back num-
Der ii the bunch Of beauties, and it is a
safe bet that the farmers where they are
going could go farther and fare worse.
But think of the horse sense OF these
young women in going into country
towns to make their future homes, in
stead of fiocking TO overcrowded cities.
nj the country they will be safe from
the wiles and wictedness of mefropo1i-
tan life. and they will get acquainted
with the steady and sturdy characters
Of field and farm and become honorable
ard useful members Of society.
