PREFERRED LOCALS.

F. E. Prowell, the Opera House drug gists, finds that times are now the opposite of dull in Phoenix. His fine stock of drugs, perfumery and fancy articles attract to his store abundant custom, in addition to those who come to quaH the cooling nectar from the soda fountain. He has just received, in response for demand for some articles superior to those usually sold in this Territory, q large consignment of trusses of various sizes and shapes to fit any one who may be so unfortunate as to need such an appliance. They are war ranted for two years and are guaranteed to combine all the points useful in a truss. The moderate prices charged for them is not the least of their recom- mendation. For the use of the lame and halt an extensive assortment of well constructed crutches has also been obtained. Those needing such articles should not fail to visit the Opera House Drug Store, on Center street.
 For a frst-class breakfast go to the Maricopa House, at Maricopa.

against the door, burst 1t open. As
he entered n terrible sight met hi
gaze. Riggs held the woman by the
throat on the floor, while with his
disengaged hand he was jabbing O
knife into every portion Of her bod
with the frenzy Of n mailman.
johnson rushed ut the assassin and
hurled him into a cornerfrom which
he soon arose and made for the
peacemaker, apparently with the in
tentiOn Of killing him. He slasheti
and stabbed him several times, and
would no doubt have killed him but
for the approach Of Others on the
stairway, which brought him TO his
senses. Hejumped from the window
and made his escape. The woman
was cut in as many rs twenty-five
places, and it is impossible for her
to live. johnson received four very

the desire OF the committee
that consideration Of said bill b.
continued without delay until final
action thereon, and that the same
course shall be taken as to the Idaho
bill as soon as the Wyoming bill
shall be concluded. Further con.
alteration Of the Wyoming bill will
not be moved until March 25. The
committee further desire, as soon a
the Idaho bill is disposed OF, that the
House shall take up another bill for
admission Of States, previously re
ported by the committee on terri

sideration thereof continued with n
little interruption as practicable by
other business OF the House, and the
committee proceed to consider bills
for enabling acts for Arizona and
New Mexico, aud both shall be re-
ported favorably or adversely at an
early day.
The democratic members OF the
committee did not regard this reso-
luton as sufficiently binding on the
Republicans to take UP the New
Mexico and Arizona bills, and
Springer offered resolution, which
was lost by party vote, that on
Tuesday, March 25th next, the
House will take up and consider in
the House special bills providing for
the admission Of Wyoming, Idaho,
New Mexico and Arizona as States
into the Union, in the order named,
and this order shall continue from
day to day thereafter until all such
bills have Consideration and final
action. This order, however, shall
not interfere with the revenue CRAP
preparation bills, but when entered
upon it shall not be interiered with
by other business until all such bills
are finally disposed Of by the House,
and at least one day be allowed for
the consideration Of each bill.
