Secondhand Sermons,

4 brisk trade, so it is stated by a church contemporary, is driven in the supply of secondhand sermons to young clerics. Should these clerics de- cline to deal further with the vendors, the latter threaten to bring the matter before their superiors. Because of these threats, it is alleged that many clergymen prefer to pay any sum that nay be demanded from them in man. Ter which practically amounts to black mailing. It seems that the usual clerical name for these purchased dis courses is "cat's-meat sermons;" they are sent in carefully concealed enyel- opes, and they are suited to all tastes and occasions. First sermons and farewell" ones are equally kept in stock. The writer, who warns the clergy against these cat's-meat produc- tions, says that congrega tions find you out in month. h."-Pearson's Week. ly.

EXCURSIONS TO PRESCOTT.

Since the inauguration of the new and unexcelled passenger train service on the s. F., P. 6 P. railway, you can go to Prescott on Saturdays, leaving here at 9:15 a. m. and return on Mon day at 6:30 a. m. or flo p. m., mount ain time. The fare is only $S:20 for the round trip, on excursion days, which will be every Saturday during the summer. Here is an opportunity for Phoenix business men to send their families to Prescott where they will escape the heat in the valley, then visit them every Sunday.
 Prescott climate during the summer IS delightful, the nights being always cool enough to enable one to secure re- freshing sleep. Many people rent tents and camp out among the pines, which makes the expense of living very small. Desirable camping grounds can be found within radius of one mile from Prescott. For fur ther information write or call on E. w. Gillett, acting general agent, Phoe- nix, Ariz.

EXCURSIONS TO THE GRAM
 CANYON.

On July 16 and every alternate Thursday to and including September 10, 1896, the $. F., P. & P. railway will place on sale round trip tickets from Phoenix to Flagstaff at one fare for the round trip. The limit will be for thirty days, enabling parties to take advantage of long trips to the Grand canyon of the Colorado river. First class stage accommodations, includ- ing meals and guides, can be secured at Flagstaff. This will afford an oppor- tunity to people of Arizona to visit one of the grandest wonders of the world. It is claimed that people from other states and territories take more interest in this trip than our own resi- dents. Arizona people should know more of their own territory. Here is their chance and at less expense than ever before. For particulars call on or write E. W. Gillett, general agent, Phoenix.

According to Mr.. Blumenberg the pipe-organ in
