present.
Mr. Hines, representing Hicks, Judd
& Co. the heavy bookbinders and sta
tioners of San Francisco, is visiting

bility of their work.
A telegram from Sau Francisco has
hastened the return home of Mrs.
Hugh Casey, mother of Mrs. Charles
Granville Johnston. Mrs. Casey's

man the condition of the big mines at
water level, having been connected
with the Contention Co. almost from
ine uay 01 its location to a year ago.
The millions of dollars paid in divi
dends above the 600 level he does no
consider a drop in the buckot com
pared with the bonanza already proved
to be below.

Commissioner Morgan,
The commissiener of Indian affairs
in his reply to Supt. Cheyney, says :
"I am a Western man. My father
was a pioneer who settled among the
Indians when his nearest white neigh
bor was twelve miles away, and I have
known something of Indian character
all my life and am familiar by person
al observation with the condition of
-Indians throughout the Indian coun
try. I made a trip last fall tnrough
Arizona, visiting all our schools and
acquainting myself with the habits
and condition of the Indians as fully
as possible, and while I realize how
difficult the work is, I am encouraged
by that already accomplished and feel
very hopeful for the future. I wish to
correct the misapprehension which is
in your mind regarding tho renegade
"Kid". While at San Carlos last fall
I took special pains to inquire into his
history, and I found that he was not
educated at Carlisle nor at any other
school. He was formerly a scout in
the government service and picked up
something, of course, while iivsuch ca
pacity, but he has nover had any
schooling."
The K of T banquet at the Can Can

A Plesnnt Entertainment.
The entertainment last evening
at the Methodist church drew a packed
house," The new paper, new car
pet and lavish display of flowers and
multitude of pretty children, created
the impression that one was in fairy
land. There were many incidents of
the evening' which were pleasing, but
lack of space will not allow extended
mention.
The programme was one t which
was in no sense a dry one
and Rev Downs did his part to create
a smile when the proper time arrived,
and so the two hours were spent, one
minute with a lump in the throat and
the next disappearing in a flood of
laughter.
"What's the news?" by the Sunday
school class was rendered in a manner
as only little tots can sing.
"The new church organ by Besse
Sharkey was delivered in a style which
shows a natural talent which Miss
Bessie has many times proved, was
born with her.
A quartette by members of the
quoir caused many to forget them
selves and applaud vicorouslv which
was checked by the pastor who dis
countenanced it.
"Buttermilk Joe," a recitation by
Miss Lola Hoxhurst, brought tears to
many eyes. It was a pleasing part of
the evening's exercises.
"The Pilgrim's company," a solo by
Mamie Meagher, was given in her
usual clear and pleasing manner.
Miss Mamie Roath gave a recitation
entitled "The Rock of Ages" in which
the singing of strains of this beautiful
pieco were rendered in a rich melod
ious voice full of feeling which as
tonished all who had not previously
heard the young lady sing.
A solo by Fied Hererra, "Sweet
Spirit hear my Prayer" was fully up to
expectations. Every one expects
something superhuman qf Mr Herrera
and they were not disappointed.
A vocal duet by Mrs. Kieke and her
!-.. If!.. V.ii! . 11 It
eiuim luisa iuiuo jiancriy was a
charming part of the exercises. Those
who had not previsously heard them
sing together, were most agreeably
surprised.
"At the Fountain" by the Sunday
school class preceded a duet by Mrs.
Downs and Miss Hulda Howell en
titled "The Shoperds Voice." They
were entitled to all the praiso bestow
ed upon their successful effort.
A duct by Gertrude Whitney and
Mollie Bauer, entitled "Softly and
Tenderly" was a very pretty and ex
ceedingly well executed vocal gem.

Lieut. Flipper writes for theNogales
Record, giving the result of his inves
tigation regarding Arizona grants.
"Upon examining tho list." says he,
I find the following Arizona private
land claims are duly recorded for the
amounts I give:
San Rafael de i.a Zan.ta for four
sitios. Titlo issued in 1825.
San Ignacio de Babacomari for eight
sitios. Title issued in 1832.
San Juan de las Boquillas yNogales
for four sitios. Title issued in 1833.
San Ignacio de la Canoa report of
survey of four sitios on file. It does
not appear that a title was ever issoed.
San Rafael del Valle for four leagues.
Title issued in 1832.
San Jose da Sonoita for one and
three-fourths sitios. Title issued in
1825.
Tres Alamos. Report of survey on
record. It does not appear that a title
was ever issued.
A careful examination of this list of
104 large octavo pages fails to disclose
the record of any other of our Arizona
private land claims.
Iu view of the probably early organ
ization of the Land Court, the fore
going information may be of use to
the settlers on these several 'grants.' "

James Speedy, constable of Nogales,
last Saturday returned to this post two
deserters from the army. The sixty
dollar reward makes the many eyes of
all the sheriffs, constables and civili
ans open wide in looking around for
men who have deserted their posts in
the army. They can see three times
as far and step five times as quick as
they could when only thirty dollars
annointed their vision. If soldiers
have any sense and honor left thoy
will never give these keen-eyed pro
tectors of the public welfare a chance
to make any money out of them.
A Horse in Bond,
Yesterday Senor Alonzo Aspe,
collector of customs at Juarez, says
the El Paso Herald, received a valua
ble horse from Nogales, Sonoro, which
had been sent to him in bond. Strings
had been fastened around the horse's
neck and body and were fastened to
gether with United States custom seals.
This is probably the first time in the
history of the Unsted States custom
service that a horse has been sent to
one country from another in bond.
The animal was taken to the United
States consulate where the seals were
taken off.
