 City Sub-,antialI, Built.
 The years of growth of the city are marked in the ege and appearance of the homes and the buildings. strurtures in the business district which have been reared % or 30 years ago stand beside buildings which have been erected in the past few years. II is remarkable. how ever. to note. that as in Douglas. the buildings of the business district are Of . permanent and substantial character and are generally either of brick or concrete. | Many or them are among tlle most hand ! some and spacious in the state. including l in this list the offices of the Copper I Queen. the company store building. the ] postoffice and public library. the buiid- 1 inRs of the fraiernal organization. includ- ! ing the Elks. the Masdns and other orders. | the Copper Queen hotel. various apart 1, menf houses and the Y. ". (. A.. schools | and churches.
 In the residence district the type of i is generally Of board in one | two. three or four rooms. There are. 1 however. many costly residences. built of | brick and concrete. The outstanding fea- l lures or the residence districts are the | manner in which homes are built clinging | io the hllsides. the front doors of one | tier opening onto the roofs al the backs i Of the tier below. and the number of | houses and homes which must be ap- | preached through long and tedious ! climb up stairways and trails from the | business district of the city.
 Every Home Has Vines.
 Every home has its vines and trees. | are the most numerous of | the trees. because they flourish with less | care in this district than do other vari | ties. Ruf many homes have in their back | yards or their front yards small orchards | of various fruits. To plant and grow | these trees their proud owners have haul cd dirt several miles. dug ont Of the rock | and decompOsed stone in fhe yard. and | filled up with rich lOam. A green lawn. | a few shade trees. and climbing vines for | the walls and porches are thus made pos sible. and at some homes small rose and ! flower gardens are carefully nurSed. In | a district where the bare rocks have af- fOrded the perching place for the homes. | where nature has dictated the location of I residences. where formerly nothing but | the low scrub oak and few similar | bushes grew. Bsbee has made beautiful her homes by industrious attention tO the | greenery for which residents have had to make root-space in the rocky foundations of their yards.
 Calling Under difficulties.
 II was while the artist and the writer were adniiriDg one especially beautiful yard and home high up on one of Bi>bee's hllS above ibe Castle rock on Tombstone canyon that they saw 2 woman making ral, She was dressed for the occasion, m afternoon street suit. natty hal. and 2 g'O,cs. she carried small silver card rase.
