 Commencing on next Monday, Shul
 & Austin will run stages three times s week to Jerome, leaving Prescott
 Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and returning on alternate days. An alleged circus is in town. l, claims to be an Oriental affair, and from the general appearance of its make up we do not doubt it Prescott is not e very good place for snide shows.
 A deed from E. w. Wells to John Lawler for all the interest in the Law Ter copper property acquired by the former from N. A. Lawler, has been filed for record, the consideration being $54l.
 A compromise ticket for delegates, to be elected at to-morrow's primary, has been agreed upon between J. R. Walker and w. A.. Rowe, candidates for sheriff, each one naming five candidates. As- pirants for other county offices have not been consulted in the matter of their selection and are kept in the dark in regard to the ticket, which is being kept profound secret.
 J.R. Walker came in last night from his range in the MogollOn mountains. By . strange coincidence, w. A. Rowe arrived about the same time from his mining camp. Both seem to have very important business at present in town, and it is just barely possible that they may remain over to take in the demo- cratic primary tomorrow, though, Of course, they never once thought of to- morrow's being the day it was to be held until after their arrival here.
 The fifty feet sample of hose arrived yesterday, and was tested by the off cers of the fire department and fOremcn of the hose companies last evening The hydrant selected for the test was the one in front of Mrs. Blackburn's. The hose was attached to the hydrant, when the cap was taken off the plug and screwed on the end of the hose and the full force of the water turned in. A nozzle was also placed on the end of the hose and it was doubled and twisted into every conceivable shape. It stood all the tests satisfactorily, and l,OOO feet more hose will be ordered immediately.

The Tobacco OF Havana

Il is needless to lay down set Of rules for
the guidance of tobacconists. They know
dat the soil of Cuba viii not produce light
cigar tobacco any better than any other.
When nature produces a tobacco light in
color it is unsuited for cigars, is a well
known fact the world over. THIS is the rule
that nature herself has made and when you
get pale color you may know tia. the to-
bacco has been doctored and unfit in richness
and aroma for delicious smoke. The great
crop of Havana tobacco is dark; the coming
crop will, in all probability, be dark also;
and il the dealers do not bestir themselves
md enter into the work OF converting their
misguided customers they will iInperil their
trade in the finer grades OF cigars. The Ha-
vana tobacco excels al other for cigars. The
Mexican and Manila weeds are favorites for
cheroots The Kentucky tobacco is inter
mediate in character The tobacco of Vir-
GINA is the best for pipe smoking, while that
from Maryland is used for the cheaper grades
Of cigars.-New York Mail and Express

loug been a matter Of criticism in other cities
that Cincinnati had no press club. This IS
indeed her first. It appears that ever since
the place got big enough TO have two journals
there has been bitter personal ennIty be-
tween some two editors Of prominence, the
last, the longest and the bitterest being that
beaween Murat Halstead, OF The Commercial,
and John r. Mclean, of The Enquirer. This
erIaity was hereditary In q newspaper sense,
Is the quarrel between Halstead and former
Enquirer editor went so far that duel was
almost arranged for, and it was wildly sug-
eested that the city fathers should sprinkle
saTiust on the pavement ct the corner of
Fourth and Race streets, to soak up the an
ticipated gore. Other quarrels Of almost
equal bitterness ragged between various mem
bers Of the press; but since Cincinnati ceased
to be ''Porkopolis' and became the paris Of
America her editors have become as nlutu-
ally courteous as members Of the United
States senate.
The dignitaries of the Press club are: Presi-
dent, Charles B. Taft, pro,giotor Of The
Tilnes-Star; vice presidents, r. e. Tunion,
city editor Of The Telegram; Elliott Mar
field, city editor Of The Enquirer. and Milton
A. McRae business manager of The Evening
Post; secretary, Edward Flynn, city editor
of The Commercial Gazette, and treasurer,
C. c. Murray, editor of The Price Current.
The building in which the club welcomes
visitors for this summer is one Of the new
centennial buildings, which will make it re-
inarkably convenient; but when the celebra-
ton season is past, the club expects to have
rooms in the central section of the city. The
club starts with seventy-ive members.
