Last Sunday afternoon Don Rosalio Colomo had an apoplectic fit on Commercial street, and is at the present time confined to his bed. Did you ever notice two people meet on the street, and observe how much their actions resemble those or a hen and rooster? So soon as the "nest" is properly renovated, the "dove" shall be "set to nest." However, it is well to remember, "there is many a slip between the cup and the lip." Mrs. Huning, the Misses Amalia and Juanita Huning, wife and daughters of Henry Huning were in town this week visiting their numerous friends and acquaintances. We respectfully call the attention of our readers to the anuouncment of B.

C. Blassingame, Esq'r. Bob is a candidate for the Sheriffalty, and if rustling counts he ousrht to ''get thar." 1 Peculiar Experience. During the winter of 1S67-S, and while residing at Santa Fe, New Mexico, I had a- somewhat peculiar experience, and which to this day remains unexplained to me. At the time aforesaid there was a jewelry firm in Santa Fe by the name of "Brown Bobbins." Mr.

Crocker Brown, the senior partner, usually clos ed up the store after business hours, carrying the only key to the store about his person Mr. had sleeping rooms on the south side of Bio Chiquito, and Mr. Bobbins roomed at the Exchange Hotel, both gentlemen taking their meals at this hotel. One evening about dusk and shortly after supper, I happened to be walking up the street to wards the Exchange Hotel, when direct ly in my front, and perhaps twenty feet distant, I saw a man whom I positively knew to be Mr. Bobbins.

The jewelry store at this time was between Bobbins and the hotel. I was well acqauint-ed with both members of the firm and frequently spent jrfany of my leisure hours at theiretore. I followed behind Mr. Bobbins, at the same time quickening my pace so as to overtake him. However, before I came up to to him he had reached the store door which he un hesitatingly opened, passed into the store leaving the door a little ajar, I also entered being not exceeding three or four feet in rear of Bobbins.

This jewelry store had two rooms, the front one used as a sales-room and the small rear room was used for a work-shop. There was only one door to the building and it was at the front facing the public plaza. The work-room had no outside door and but one small window, and this window was at all times securely fastened, besides it was covered with large iron bars. In the front or salesroom were a couple of chairs, and the smouldering remains of a fire in the fire place. As before stated I entered the store immediately behind Mr.

Bobbins, but not seeing him in the sales-room I naturally concluded that he had passed into the work-room at the rear, I therefore sat down on one of the chairs near the fire, filled my pipe and prepared to make myself comfortable until Bobbins came in. I sat there smoking for some, time, and finally replenished the fire, again filled my pipe, at the same time thinking to myself "Bobbins is making a devil of a long stay in the work-shop." I had been there, perhaps, a couple of suddenly Mr, Brown, the senior partner of the firm, came in at the Iront door, and asked in a surprised manner how I came to be there at that hour of the night. I replied that "I came in behind Bobbins, and that Mr. Bobbins was then in the back-room, but seemed to be making a deuced long stay of it for I have been sitting here smoking for at least two hours." To this Brown replied that "Bobbins was not there, on the contrary lie was then at the hotel, nor had Bobbins left the hotel since supper. This statement surprised me very much, and I said "impossible I saw Bobbins open the door, walk into the room, and I camo in not three feet behind him." Brown says "this is very strange indeed, for I locked this door, and no other person has a key to it." He then lighted a lamp and we made a thorough inspection of both the front and back rooms we closely examined the premises and were satisfied that no living soul, other than ourselves, was about the house.

The result of this.ex-araination caused me to experience a sort of uneasy sensation, for certainly here was an insoluble mystery that savored of hobgoblins, or at least of the spiritual. After completing our search I requested Mr. Brown to examine the stock and see that all was as he had left it on locking up for supper this was done and everything was found intact. Brown says we will now go up to the Fonda and see Bobbins, and I will convince you that my partner has not been out of the hotel since eating supper. We found Mr.

Bobbins seated in the billiard hall of the hotel, and upon being accosted by Mr. Brown with the question: ''Have you been to the store since supper? Bobbins laughingly replied that he "had not set a foot outside the hotel since supper, and as I have no ke' it would be of little use for me to go to the store after closing." Mr. Brown then explained to Bobbins the evening's occurrence which greatly surprised him, and he again said "I have not put my foot outside this house since supper; in fact I have sat in this very chair all the evening talking with you, as you very well know, until you left to go home." This was a fact, for Brown said they both took their meals together, entered the billiard room together, and sat there together talking until he (Brown) started to go to his room for the night. Can any one explain this apparent mystery Query How came the door to be unlocked and standing ajar? Who, or what was it entered the stoor immediately before me? And what caused Crocker Brown, contrary to his invariable custom, alter going part way home, to return to the hotel corner, and thence down another street directly opposite from his sleeping rooms? ALBEBT F. BANTA.

St. Joiixs, Arizona, Sept. 11, 1890. Last Thursday night a splendid dance was was had at the Court House under the auspices of Sheriff Creaghe with Don Ygnacio Bazan as floor manager. The gathering was a select one with just enough couples present to allow all to enjoy themselves to their heart's content.

Dancing was kept up until the wee sma hours in the morning. Sheriff Creaghe never does things by halves, but when he starts in to have a good time he generally succeeds. Of the numerous ladies who graced the occasion, we noticed the following among those present: Mrs, St. George Creaghe, Mrs. Henry Huning, and her two charming daughters, Misses Amalia and Juanita Mrs.

Bessie Frank, Mrs. Pedro Montano, Mrs. Alfred Buiz, Mrs. W. G.

Scott, Mrs. J. L. Hubbell and Miss Alvira Ap-odaca, and many others whose names we failed to learn. We do hope these social entertainments may not be allow ed to languish into "innocuous desuetude," but that they may become more frequent as the cool weather approaches us; for surely it does good in many ways to thus cause the people to come together at these social and innocent en tertainments.

"Uncle Jim" Wallace, ye editor and manager of this paper, left here last Wednesday morning to represent the county of Apache in the Territorial Dem ocratic Convention which met at Phce nix on the loth instant, "Uncle Jim' is a whole-souled, big-hearted friend and a thorough, uncompromising demo crat. We bespeak for him a hearty welcome from all strangers at the Con vention as to those who know him, no commendations are necessar'. Many of our people, the husbands wives, sons, daughters, aunts, uncles cousins, and lovers with their sweet hearts, are attending the New Mexico Annual Fair at Albuquerque. The poor devil which, of course, means the scribe on this paper, is debarred these and kindred pleasures; he must remain at home; toot his bazoo; give 'email taffy; and for his pay in this service get roundlv and soundlv cussed. Such is life for the pencil pusher.

From a private letter we are informed of the recent arrival at Ilolbrook of Mr Adolph Schuster with his newly acquir ed bride. Our friend Adolph crossed the briny deep in search of his "better half" which he found somewhere in Germany. The Herald extends its sin cere congratulations to the happy pair, and wishes them a world of joy in their new relationship to each other. No cake expected.

fc In this issue we publish the call for a County Democratic Convention, and it is the wish of all good citizens, who have the welfare of this county at heart, and who favor another two years of eco nomical and honest county government, that the primaries be well attended, thereby insuring good and reliable del egates to the Convention. Messrs. Julius and Gustav Becker, the leading merchants of Springerville, were in town last Saturday and Sunday, having some business before the Court Commissioner and at the Treasurer's office. Mrs. Apodaca, wife of Mr.

Serafin Ap odaca, with her three youngest children, is visiting her friends and relatives at Albuquerque and other points along the Bio Grande. We call attention to the Bepublican call for a County Convention. ANItJCEMEIV.FS, I hereby announce myself as a candi date for Sheriff of Apache county at the ensuing election, subject to the action of the Democratic County Convention. B. C.
