Tubac P O,
Pima Co, 55 miles s of Tucson, is the third oldest town in the United States ; following San Augustine, Florida, founded in 1513, and Santa Fé, New Mexico, 1540. The earliest published account known to exist (1549) gives Tubac as the only established town or city of any importance in El Desierto or La Papagueria, and states that it was then inhabited by a people much in advance of their neighbors. We again hear of it in 1600 as being the largest city in Novum Mexicum, with the exception of Santa Fé, and the resting place for the trains to recruit on their journeys from Alamos in Sonora to that place. It was garrisoned by troops under Spanish, Mexi- can, and American rule, to protect the inhabitants from the raids of the savage Apa- ches who infested this region, and embraced every oppor- tunity to plunder and kill. In® the vicinity are to be found the remains of arastras and smelters, together with large dumps of ore-slag, which pro- claim it to have been the center of extensive mining operations when occupied by the Spaniards and Mexicans. The land in the upper Santa Cruz valley, in which the town is situated, is very rich ; but owing to scarcity and un- certainty of water, agriculture on a large scale has generally proved a failure. For raising stock of all kinds this section is unsurpassed, and the clim-
ate is one of the most delight- ful in the world.

Tucson P 0,
Pima. Co, county seat, and in- corporated city of 9,000 in- habitants, is the chief com- mercial town of Arizona, be- ing eligibly situated for trade on an elevated plateau in the valley of the Rio Santa Cruz, in the midst of a productive country, and on the line of the Southern Pacific Railroad, in latitude 32 deg. 14 min., longitude 110 deg. 56 min., and having an altitude of 2,542 feet above the sea. The locality is about midway be- the Gila river and the Mexi- can border, being about 65 miles from each in a direct line, and by the railroad is 247 miles east of Yuma, and 978 miles from San Francisco. The valley of the Santa Cruz leads into the Mexican State of Sonora, 'with fine wagon- roads to Hermosillo, Altar, and other large towns of that country. From its favorable position it commands a large trade, with the prospect of becoming a railroad center of importance. The location was selected by the Spaniards fully 300 years ago, in ex- tending their frontier settle- ments and missions, making Tucson, then called Quequel- son, one of the oldest towns of the United States, ranking with St. Augustine, Florida,

and Santa Fé, New Mexico. As a frontier town and mili- tary post it has experienced many vicissitudes : in constant war with the Apaches, at last standing alone, the only place occupied by the Mexicans in the region south of the Gila, since ceded to the United States. But it is not known that the occupation was con- tinuous previous to 1754, when the Presidio of Tucson was established as a protec- tion to the Mission of San Xavier del Bac, and the set- tlements of the valley of the Santa Cruz. In 1847 the place was occupied for a short time by the American forces known as the Mormon Batta- lion, under Colonel Philip St. George Cooke, and thencefor- ward was on the route of em- igrant travel from the 'States ' to California. In 1849 it was a welcome resting-place to the weary pilgrim who found here his first and last signs of civilization in many hundred miles of travel. The protec- tion, kindness and hospitality of the people of Tucson is vividly remembered by the pioneers of '49, whose fortune led them by the, southern route in their journey to the El Dorado of the Pacific. In 1854, by the treaty known as the " Gadsden Purchase," the region was ceded to the Uni- ted States, and Tucson became an American town, at least in name, if not in character. To every appearance it con- tinued a Mexican pueblo, with buildings of adobe, mere huts of one low story, with flat
roofs, and the ground for the floor, placed with little regard to streets, or order of any kind, and without door-yards, out - houses, conveniences, or ornamentation ; and to a great extent the old accidents of lo- cation of streets, or passage- ways, continue to mar the city of the present. But the ad- vantages of position have drawn hither a large and profitable trade, which is rap- idly changing the ancient pu- eblo into a modern American city-having been organized as such in 1877. By the cen- sus of the place in 1872, the population was estimated at 3,500; by the census of 1880, it was 6,993; and at present it is claimed to exceed 9,000. A great impetus was given it by the discovery of the mines of Tombstone, Bisbee, and other localities contributory to it, and this was acceler- ated by the completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad, which was finished to this point on the 20th of March, 1880, and to the connection with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fé, making a trans- continental road in March, 1881. With daily trains from both extremes of the conti- nent, with the telegraph con- necting instantaneous thought with all the world, and with well - equipped lines of stages running to surrounding points and extending into Sonora and the great cities of Mexico, its isolation is removed, and its means of intercommunication and trade perfected. Now it claims all the elements of a

first - class city, with its great mercantile houses, stock ex- change, banks, hotels, schools, churches, daily papers, parks, suburban resorts, hospitals, etc., with street railroads, gas and water- works soon to be added. While the general appearance of the city is Mex- ican, with many low, flat- roofed adobe structures, there are also many of a more pre- tentious order; and a number of quite elegant residences, costing from $5,000 to $10,- 000, stores, and public build- ings of great value. So nu- merous are the business estab- lishments that it would be dif- ficult to name them. There are two prosperous banking- houses, that of Safford, Hud- son & Co., with a branch at Tombstone, being a substan- tial and well-conducted insti- tution, that would be a credit to any of the great cities of the Union. Five well-conducted hotels furnish excellent ac- commodation to travelers, and comfortable homes to res- ident boarders. Two brewer- ies supply the refreshing bev- erage which is said not to intox- icate, and a vast number of sa- loons dispense it to the thirsty. Three daily and weekly news- papers - the Citizen, Star, and Journal-furnish the American public with reading matter; and El Fronterizo informs the Spanish-speaking population, in their own lan- guage, of the events of the day. Besides these are the Arizona Mining Journal, published weekly, and the Arizona Quarterly Illus-
trated. A steam flouring-mill in the limits of the city, and two propelled by water in the vicinity, afford a market for the grain grower. Here are the United States Custom House, Internal Revenue Of- fice, U. S. Land Office, Sur- veyor-General's Office, U. S. Depository for the District of Arizona, U. S. Courts, and Signal Service offices. The Public School department was organized in 1872. A commodious school-house has been erected at an expense, including ground and furni- ture, of about $10,000. It contains a library valued at $1,000. The school is pre- sided over by two male and two female teachers, and has enrolled 260 pupils, of which 149 are boys, and 111 girls. The St. Joseph's Academy, conducted by the Sisters of St. Joseph, is a seminary for young ladies, and has 135 pupils. There is also a paro- chial school for girls under the charge of the Sisters of St. Joseph, and the Saint Augustine parochial school for boys. The number of school children in the district much exceeds the number enrolled, the great majority being Mexicans. A private school is kept by Mr. and Mrs. Silva, which is well at- tended. At all the schools instruction is given in both English and Spanish. The Tucson Library Associaion was organized January 1st, 1880, and now has a library of 300 volumes, which is maintained by a fee of $5 per

annum, or fifty cents a month from those partaking of its benefits. There is also a pub- lic library and a railroad library. The religious orders are also represented. The Presbyterian Church was or- ganized in 1877, and has an adobe church edifice with a seating capacity of 250. This was erected in 1879, at a cost of about $9,000. A Sabbath- school is maintained with seven teachers and fifty schol- ars. The Methodist Church was organized in 1879. The society has a brick edifice with a seating capacity of 200, which was erected in 1881, at a cost of $4,000. The St. Augustine Roman Catho- lic Church is an adobe struc- ture, finished in 1869. A flourishing Sabbath-school is connected with this church. The Mount St. Joseph Novi- tiate of the Sisters of St. Joseph is one mile from Tuc- son ; has two sisters and seven novices. The St. Mary's Hospital, under the charge of the Sisters of St. Joseph, is located one mile from the city, and has accomodations for forty patients. The hos- pital, as it now stands, was opened May 1st, 1880. It is a grayish stone building, lo- cated at the base of the Tuc- son Mountains. There are two stories: the lower of which is reserved for county patients, and the upper for those who are able to pay for the care they receive. Ano- ther story is to be added as soon as the funds can be se- cured. Of the social orders
there are organized lodges of Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Good Templars, and Turn-Verein. The Odd Fellows have erect- ed a fine brick hall, costing $8,000. There are some pleasant suburban resorts ; those which are most fre- quented being Silver Lake, three miles up the Santa Cruz, and the military post of Camp Lowell, about seven miles north. The lake is a favorite resort for bathers, and is exceedingly well pa- tronized. The climate is
