Senator Wellington Three Score ant

Former United States Senator Geo,
L, Wellington, of Cumberland, cele-
brated his seventeen birthday at his
home in his native city on last Sat-
urday and was the recipient of warm
congratulations from all sides by his
many friends and admirers. He gave
dinner Saturday night to a few of
his most intimate friends. Despite
Senator Wellington has suffered great
handicap during the past eight years
as the result of a paralytic stroke,
which affected one side, his indomita-
BILE spirit has kept him going and he
is about the streets of Cumberland
daily. He is a great exponent of
fresh air and goes automobiling sew
eral times day. To this diversion
he largely attributes his ability to
overcome his infrmity, which would
have caused capitulation by one less
resolute in spirit.

MARCH OF REFINEMENT
(Verses for the Year 1889
Tell John to set the kettle on,
l mean to take drive;
l only want to go to Rome,
And shall be back by five.
And, Tom, take you the gold-leaf
wings,
And start for Spain at three;
l want some Seville oranges
'TwiXt dinner time and tea.
Fly round by France and bring a new
Perpetual motion gun;
Tomorrow with some friends I go
A hunting in the Sun.
Tell cook to dress those humming
birds

They've now been killed at least two
days,
They'll be un peu trop haut.
The trip l took the other day,
To breakfast in the Moon,
Thanks to that awkward Lord Bel
laire,
Has spoiled my new bolloon.
For steering through the milky way,
He ran against star;
And turning round again too soon,
Came jolt against my car.
But, Tom, get you the car repaired,
And then let Dan and Dick
Initiate with ten square miles of gas,
| mean to travel quick.
My steam is surely up by now,
Put the high pressure on;
Give me the breath-bag for the way;
All right-hey-whiz-Tm gone.

Means Much to Cochise

The addition of the Apache Powder plant to the industry Of Cochise coun- ty will mean much to the county in wealth and production, since many small mining properties, as we'll as the larger one will De able to take ad. vantage of the cheaper blasting pow der rates which are bound to result from the production of the plant.
 Increased business to nearby cities and towns will also result and Tomb. stone is bound to come in for it's share of it, while later it is possible the company may decide to furnish electrical power, of which they will have much surplus, to farmers in the San Pedro Valley for pumping and do- mestic purposes.
 While the exact cost and value of the big plant has never been made public, conservative guess would place it a: s3,0O0,000.
