TIE Arizona Journal and Miner, of Prescott, the two Republican newspapers of this county, have con solidated, MT. J. C. Martin, of the Journal, purchasing the good will and subscription list of the Miner, from C. w. Beach. This is move that ought to have been made long time ago, if for nothing more, to relieve the business men of Prescott from the tax upon them to support more papers than the town could stand. Mir. Martin has proved himself a good newspaper man and will hold the lever for the Republican side crediiably. Mir. Beach will attend exclusively, hereafter, to his cattle business.

An AnecdOte of Garfield.

A year before his election, General
Garfield could have been seen gayly
sauntering along PENNSYLVANIA Avenue,
laughing, talking, nodding his head to
this acquaintance and to that, without
any obstruction to his progress in the
shape of sidewalk reception. Those
who did not know him personally were
familiar with his face and name The
ladies had heard his eloquence in the
hOuse-the street urchins had seen him
at the base ball grounds shouting, with
the eagerness of boy, his pleasure or
dissatisfaction as the game progressed.
While member of the house he often
took occasion to run out into the sub
urbs of the city to witness this exciting
sport. / remember one afternoon
when he reached the stand erected on
the grounds few minutes after | did.
/ was leaning against the front rail of
the platform, and, clapping me on the
shoulder, he asked, WHO'S ahead?"
l gave him the information, and he
thereupOn became so interested in the
game that he seemed unaware that his
heavy weight upon my little body was
to say the least, inconvenient. He was
constantly exclaiming: " Good catchn
g Fine hit!" sob! what a muff!'
and well-known extracts from base bal
language, and he soon grew so excited
as to make me feel the effects.

THE only candy that the little Esqui-
mau children know anything about
comes from the shin-bone of slaugh-
tered reindeer. The marrow that is
dug out of these bones and the tallow
which comes from other parts of the
reindeer are considered delicious It'd
bits, either eaten raw or cooked. 1t is
because this fatty matter helps to keep
out the cold that the young people like
it so well and eat it with the zest with
which Yankee boys and girls devour
chocolate creams.
