LUCILLE ITEMS.


On Wednesday night Of last week
the house belonging to Mr.. Hill in
which Mr.. Gilmore was living, was
burned down. The fire started from
some unknown cause, about 2 o'clock
in the morning. Everything was lost
except the. family, and it came near
being awakened by the burning build
ing coming in on them. The above
was especially unfortunate in thar the
night was very cold. Some idea of the
intensity of the cold in the recent
blizzard can be gained by the follow
ing. fact. The writer in walking along
the railroad track saw skunk which
had attempted to cross the track and
froze to one of the iron rails.

A. ( N. M. ENTERs PROTEST.

George R. Drysdale, auditor and treasurer of the Arizona and New Mexico railroad, was. here last Sat 'urday en route to Clifton from Santa Fe. New Mexico, where he appeared before the State tax commission for his company protesting against -.s a raise in taxes. J1 -.4
 Mir. Drysdale appeared before sthe commission to protest against the raise, of $380,510 in the valuation of the Arizona and New Mexico railroad decreed by the tax commission at it's November meeting, and to ask that a reduction be granted. His request for reduction was based principally on the fact that for. nearly five months beginning September Il, 1914, the three big copper companies of the Clifton district of Arizona, which this company serves, were tied up by a strike, as a result of which, according to his statement, mot a pound of ore was mined or smelted by any of the companies, and the freight business normally created by these companies ceased absolutely" MT. Drysdale said that the companies affected by the strike-the Shannon, Detroit and Arizona, contributed, during the fiscal year ending June 30, last, 74.36 per cent of the total business handled by the Arizona and New Mexico railroad the S5 Mine at Lordsburg, New Mexi co contributing 19 .02 per cent of the tonnage.

HEAP FOR GOVERNOR

PHOENIX, Feb. 26-Harry w. Heap, of Prescott was today announc- ed as candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. He has been a member of the Yavapai county board of supervisors a number of years and is successful business man.: At one time he was manager of the Phoenix street railway sys. tehl.T @%'.
 This does not change my position in the slightest" said tax commis. sioner Tom Campbell, who has been generally regarded as the probable Re publican candidate for governor. If after the assessing season I think can be nominated and elected, l shall come out for the governorship.. Mr. Heap is admirably qualified for the office. The fact that so many (good Republicans are seeking the | nomination, or are willing to accept it, is hopeful sigh."

James s. Douglas, better known as Jimmie Douglas will be a candidate for delegate to the St. Louis con- vention in the Cochise district. MT. Douglas is one of the most popular copper magnates in the state. Re gently in Globe, a boom for him for the Democratic nomination for gov ernor was launched. Just now MT. Douglas is directing the Verde Elk. tension but he manages to get lit tie time for politics. He is anything but a buttoned-up fellow and has lots of friends in both parties all over the state.

sONORA'S RETURN ID NORMAL IS
 DELAYED
Peace in Party We'll Restored and Business is Resuming But Railway Repairs Will Require Time

TUCSON, Feb. 2S-That the people Of Sonora are trying to do some busi- ness, but that it is not brisk,was stat ed oy Colonel Epes Randolph, who has returned from a trip over the Southern Pacific of Mexico as far as San Bias. Sinola He said:
 ''Nhe towns are quiet-I would say peaceful. There are garriSons of sol diers at all the principal cities and at all points along the railroad likely to be invaded by the Yaquis. The gener al disposition is to clean up the cities and put them in orderly condition.
 "As to business, there is some ev- erywhere, but it is not brisk. There is some disposition to start up the min4- Americans are getting back into the country with view to reopening and are looking around.
 North of Guaymas I would judge that the planting is about 75 per cent of normal. However, the corn plant ing season has not come yet, so that you cannot very we'll tell.
 ''The road is in very bad condition. Eighty per cent of all wooden bridges between Nogales and San Bias have been destroyed. On. the whole the aggregate length of bridges destroyed is some twelve miles. We are operat- ing as far as Rosario, sixty kilometers below MaZatlan-after fashion. Trains are running during daylight only, and very slowly. The openings are: crossed either by shoo-f1ies, or by lcribbing.
 Colonel Randolph was accompanied by Mrs. Randolph and H. J. Lawtop, general freight and passenger agent, and his wife.
 To a reporter in Nogales, Colonel Randolph is quoted as stating that the reconstruction of the road is being pushed, and that it is expected trains will be running into Topic before long
 The matter of completing the road on east of Topic to make connection with the rest of the road into the city of Mexico, will commence later after having got the road that has already been built into working condition.

NEW coRNELIA TOWNSHIP

Following the completion of the Tucson, Cornelia & Gila Bend railroad which opens the great Ajo Copper district to the world, a town is now springing up in the desert like magic, a town which is destined to grow into a city of 5000 people or more within the next two years. Building is trying to keep pace with the de mand for accommodations by the hundreds of people who are focking in every week as a result of the prep arations to mine the vastest low grade property in the world and the construction of a plant to reduce the ore to concentrates and thence to electrolitic right on the ground.

.F|REMEN BALL WAS BIC SUCCESS AT
 THE PRINCESS
One Hundred and Twenty-Five Coup
 les Trip the Light Fantastic-Gen-
 eral Manager Carmichael Praises Services of Volunteers.

One of the most enjoyable dances of the season was that given by the Cliff ton Volunteer Fire Association at the Princess Theatre on Saturday evening last. It is estimated that not less than one hundred and twenty-five couples were on the floor at one time ana the entire program with several extras and encores were danced un- til the wee small hours of the morn- ing.
 The expenses of the dance were de- Ifrayed by donation from the Arizona Copper Company, Ltd, in the sum of two hundred and fifty dollars, given as token of appreciation of the services rendered by the volunteers on the occasion of the big concentra- tor fire on November 9th last.
 Several committees were busily en- gagged for week making the arrange ments and the good time enjoyed by |all testified to their work well done. Colored electric lights around the balcony and emblems of the fire de- partment arranged on the stage gave the affair the spirit of the occasion.
 At nine o'clock the grand march was led by G. L. Crawford and Mrs. Clyde Barber during which the emble- nautical programs were distributed.
 Turing the evening delicious refresh ments were served in the Princess Confectionery adjoining. t-
 Prior to the grand march the as- sembled guests were welcomed by Member Karl Schade, who few minutes later introduced MT. Norman Carmichael, General Manager of the A. c. Co. Ltd, who took advantage ot the opportunity to express on' be- half of the company his sincere ap- preciation of the services rendered by the Clifton Fire Brigade who have responded nobly whenever they have 'been called to duty. He praised the fire fighters of the world as an organi- Zation of fearless men endangering their own lives in saving others and protecting property. Mr. Car michael expressed the opinion that two essentials were necessary for an efficient fighting organization and enthusiasm and advocated at least one paid fireman in the town who should act as leader and devote his time to the efficiency, of the de- partment and the instruction and drill of the volunteers. It should also be the duty of the paid fireman to have charge of all equipment.
