 Courier: While great many south ern Arizonans give us the go-by for Cal ifornia, still there are number of Salt River valley families in the woods around Prescott. If few suitable houses were built for rent in Prescott some of those who go to California would summer here.
 It was heard on the streets yesterday that the young ladies of the city who ride bikes were going to organize a boomer club and that a meeting would shortly be held for that purpose. They are going to combine and every last one of them don the boomers so that the population will get used to them immediately.
 Probate Judge Grouse has announced that no more second rate teachers cer tifcates will be issued and no tempor ary certificates unless by the consent of the school board. This is done as a matter of protection as there are too many teachers now who have certif- cates and no schools to teach. It will give chance to those now having cer. tifcates to secure employment.

 Yesterday afternoon an accident oc- cured on the corner of Washington street and Second avenue which came near giving the quietus to one man. A | COW with rope attached to her neck was being led behind wagon. The bovine showed disposition to become obstinate, so one of the men adjusted the rope around the cows horns and sat in the tail-end of the wagon with the rope in his hands. The wagon started up, and the first thing the man with the rope knew was nothing, for he came to his senses in Dr. Tuttle's office with his head in bad shape. He had been pulled off the wagon and fell on hls head, rendering him unconscious.
 It was an amusing sight to see Gen. M. E. Collins attempting to conquer and ride bicycle yesterday afternoon on Wall street. The general had faced bullets and listened to the roar of the cannon without trepidation, but he was in mortal fear of the bike. Justice Johnstone persuaded the general to mount the machine, promising to hold him up, but, when the machine was going fairly we'll, the judge deserted, and the result WAS the generals specks were found in vacant lot several yards distant and the case the other side of the street. The general waxed wrought with his fall, and, making another effort, he said, 'I'll ride the blame thing if I bust, my galluses," and he rode.
 The entertainment given on the grounds adjacent to the Presbyterian church last night may be termed as n artistic and financial success. Events oi this character are always sure to bring out youth and beauty, but it would be hard to tell where 30 much female loveliness as was present last night all sprang from. They were there, however, and it would be but nat ural that the young men would be pres ent, for they represent the financial part of the business. The young lady disposes of the ice-cream aud the young man pays for it. The program was one of especial merit and the applause that followed each rendition was sufficient proof that the audience thought so.
 Several persons in Tom bstone wit. messed horsewhipping the other eve, ming. The chastisement was admins tered by married woman upon her bus band. Both were coming from op. posite directions and were about to pass each other when the woman, who 1 IS lat, falr, forty ana muscular ana when she began to lay the whip on hubby, he danced very lively and tried to pacify his irate spouse. She would not be pacifed and the blows rained thick and fast on his defenceless head. He suddenly rememb bered that he had an engagement in hurry and made rapid tracks up the street. The cause of the wrath of the woman with the whip is not known but it is probably
