Like another ,oonan
the one who's used DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. She's a
stronger and a happier woman
and a healthy one. The aches,
pains, and weaknesses, that made
life miserable are gone-the func-
tional disturbances or irregularities
that caused them have been cured.
Face and figure show the change,
too. Health has restored the
charms that rightfully belong to
her. For all the weaknesses and
ailments peculiar to womanhood,
"Favorite Prescription is a posi-
tive remedy. No other medicine
for women is guaranteed, as this is,
to give satisfaction in every case,
or the money is refunded. It's pro-
prietors are willing to take the risk.
What it has done, warrants them
in guaranteeing what it will do.
It's the cheapest medicine you
can buy, because it's guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned.
You only pay for the good you
get.
Can you ask more?
That's the peculiar plan all DR..

Herbert Mapes was twenty-four year,
old, a member Of tho class of '92 at Co

HE WON A FORTUNE.
His HiGhness and His Big Prize, IN

His HiGhness and His Big Prize, the
$50, o Futurity Stakes.
For many a day His Highness will be re-
membered by turtles as the winner of the
richest prize ever competed for on the
American turf. He met twenty-one horses
OF exceptional merit for the SIS, 900 Futuri-
ty takes at Sheepshead Bay recently, and
despite the facts that he carried 100 pounds
and gave from 8 to 25 pounds to his OPP
ponents, he won the grand prize by a good
length annie the plaudits of $4,000 people.
The Futurity is a sweepstakes for 2-year-
olds, distance three-quarters of a mile;
gross value. s75,00o, and worth S67. 900 to
the winner. His Highness' time was
1:15 10, and he wa piloted to victory by
Jimmy Mclaughlin.
His Highness Is a bay colt Of princely
proportions. He is owned by David Gid

A strange feature of the race was the fact
that one year ago, when his great horses

JOHN sAxTga's AWFUL CRIME.


He Kills His Entire Family and Thea

A most complete and horrible case OF
wholesale murder and suicide was that of
John H.. Baxter, of 92l East One Hundred
and Sixth street, New York city. He was
a painter. with work enough at good
wages, had a fairly well furnished home
and some money, and seemed to live very
happily with his wife and two children.
But he fretted with a fear OF heart disease,
of which his father died. One day his wife
walked out with a neighbor, Mrs. Thomas
Laing, mi said:

just what it is, but l feel that something
awful is going to happen"
The same day her husband called on his
sisters and told them he expected to die
soon. That evening he sat on the front
stoop playing with his children till o p. M,
when all retired. About an hour later the
~neighbors heard six pistol shots. but could

THE GRAND CANYON OF COLORADO.

The Great Granite George is about forty miles in length. The portion from its head to the Bright Angel Greek, some fifteen miles, is narrow, dark and gloomy. It stands at the upper gateway of the great canyon as if by its very frown to keep back the intruder and guard from vulgar eyes and sordid greed the grandeur, the beauty and hidden treasure of the low CT canyon. At the Bright Angel Creek everything changes-the granite slopes are fatter, they arc of a softer black granite, cut into sharp pinnacles and crags, and seem more as if formed of very coarsely stratifed slate.
 The canon grows more and more pie turesque and beautiful the farther we proceed. The granite has lost its aw- ful and threatening look and slopes back in beautiful hillsides of varies sated black, gray and green.
 At the side canons, and from the bends of the river, the upper portions of the whole gorge are brought into view, showing the great marble and sandstone cliffs, benched back far away from the the river, while moun- tains just in close between the side canons and washes nearly a mile and quarter in height As we look down the river, or up low side canon, with the placid water between its polished walls of black, and gray, and green, ! for foreground, there rise aIove the dark sandstone, tier upon tier, bench upon bench, terrace upon terrace, step- ping back farther and farther and higher and in immensity of height and proportion seeming to tower almost over our heads. First above the dark sandstone come the fattened slopes of the lime and mineralized matter, in horizontal layers of yellow, brown, white, red and green.
 Then rise sheer walls of stained marble 1000 feet or more, the lower portions yellow, brown and rtd, the coloring of red growing brighter as it hears the top. Above this smaller benches of marble, at the top of each a little mesa covered with green bunch grass and bushes, and above these dozen or more terraces of scarlet and fame-colored sandstone, stained on their outer points with black, and the little benches between them relieved by the bright green of the greasewood and bunch grass, the whole cro aned with perhaps a couple or thousand feet of the lighter gray, yellow and white sandstone ledges, capped by pinnacles and pires, turrets and domes, in every imaginable shape size and proportion.

FROM conversations with some of our oldest and most experienced cattle men, whose judgment can be relied upon in such matters, the loss of cattle will be very heavy in this county this spring. The estimated loss varies from twenty to thirty five per cent. This goes to show that the ranges ill this county are overstocked and that the cattlemen are losing money by holding thelr steer cattle until they are three, four and five-year-olds. It would be to their advantage and money in their pockets, if they would round up and sell every yearling they could gather each year. The losses they sustain under their present sys- tenn of conducting their business amounts to much more than the natur- al gain from yearling to three year-olds, and after the latter age there is, con- paratively speaking, no gain. Sell as ycarlings and you have two years use of tho money, and will not be compe!l- ed to borrow at the rate of twelve or fifteen per cent per annum, as many are now doing; on the contrary, If they are prudent and economical, they will have money to loan and can often get that rate of interest on gilt edged security.-St Johns Herald.

BAD BUSINESS.

The money sent from Flagstaff to such firms as Montgomery, Ward & Co, of Chicago, H., and to cheap clothing houses east and west for shoddy clothing under the pretense that 1t ''is made to order," would sup port frst-class mercantile establish ment at home whose proprietors, clerks and families would add materially to the towns population and wealth. Not a day passes but what more cash money is sent away from here to pur- chase goods that ought to be sold by our own merchants, than is sold by any first class Flagstaff house for the same day, groceries excepted. This condition of affairs is deplorable and ought not to be. In part the trouble occurs in the fact that our merchants do not keep in stock the class of goods needed, but they would if the demand existed and the people would give them an even chance with the eastern house. To build up a town requires a certain kind of patriotism. The citi- Zen must believe in his town, must patronize it, even at an apparent loss must shut out foreign dealers by pat, ronizing home institutions. When men complain that their own town is dead 1t is most usually true that it is dead, and that the men who do the complaining are the men who have killed it. Flagstaff merchants carry good stocks, sell goods at reasonable prices and will do better when they are better patronized.

THE result of the railroad situation Is probably going to be this, that there will be no road built to Prescott, When the thing Is simmered down to a point, this valley would be hundred Der cent better of with road to Hol. brook or Flagstaff, where it would be iu the direction of cold field and through splendid lumber region, and by which this valley would have a di- rect outlet to the east for its eaily fruits. This is the route over which this valley has long desired road, but because there appeared to be a chance to get one to Prescott that route has been urgently advocated. Now that that chance seems to have failed the people of Phenix, Mesa, Tempe and the whole Gila and Salt River valleys VII beni their energies to get road where it will do them the most good. Herald.
