EXCURSIONS TO THE GRAND
 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 a less expense than ever before. For particulars call on or write B. W. Gillett, general agent, Phoenix

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 4:10 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 B. w. Gillett, acting general agent, Phoe- nix, Ariz.

MICROBES ON STAMPS.
The Phflatelist's Collection as A source
 of Danger,

or Danger.
 Having successfully disclosed the hv- gienic dangers adherent to the kiss.
 the telephone receiver and the towel,
 medical science has now turned it's at-
 tention to the perils that beset the
 philatelist's art. According to Dr.
 lnna, says the Science News, a patient
 was recently attacked by g. peculiar
 parasitic growth in the beard. On mak- ing a minute examination of some of the hairs, the doctor recognized the dis ease as "piedra,' which is chiefly met with in British Columbia. The doc tors friend had never been in Columbia put he freduently received letters from correspondents there, and, being a. col lector of postage stamps, he was in the habit Of removing them from the let ters. In Dr. Unna's opinion the gum on the postage stamp is an excellent material for retaining any disease germs that it may receive from the an- pilcatlon of the tongue, and in remov- Ing stamps-eVen when moistening is cone with the sponge-there is always a danger that the collectors fingers may receive and communicate the con tdmination,

RUINED BY A CONTRACT.
An Iron Founder Undertakes Something
 Outside of His Line.

All Aion Hounuer undertakes Some mething
 Outside of His Line.
 The founder of the Nendome column Tn Paris met with financial ruin in his contract. The French government. when it decided to erect the notable column, entered into contract with an Iron founder, says the Philadelphia Record. He knew nothing whatever of modellng or casting in bronze. The government agreed to supply him with cannon captured from the Russians and Austrians during the campaign of 1855, In quantities sufficient to found the monument. The contractor. know Ing nothing of the phenomena which the fusion of bronze offers, found when tWo-thirds of the column was com p!eted that he had used up a Il his metal ou1hclent bronze had been given him to complete the monument. and he was responsible for the entire amount flnolng himself face to face with bank rnptcy he melted up his scoriae and mixed the metal with cheap refuse which he purchased, and so completed the founding. The castings, however. were found to be so full of flaws that the work was stopped, and the founder rulned. The holdings of the different parts ot the bas-relief were so badly executed thatthe chiselers who repaired the defects removed no less than 70 tons of bronze. They received for their laoor < 12,o00, to which was added the 70 tons of bronze, which became their perqulsltes. The whole transaction was very, very French.

The Chinese Flag.

The flag of China is one of the gavest among ensigns. The body of the flag IS pale yellow. In the upper left hand corner is a small red sun. Lookino in- Cently at the sun is a fierce Chinese dragon. The dragons belly is a bril- liant red and white. His green back is covered with stiff knobs. He is stand- ing on his two hind paws and the left torefoot. His feet, are fve-toed and slightly hooked. His long, fve-forked tall stretches away in the rear. The dragons neck is arched back. His mouth IS wide open and he looks as if he were about to try to swallow the red sun.

WHISPERS FROM THE SEA.

Something Concerning the Formation of
 Curious Marine Growth.
 There is a marvellous marine growth called sertularia which has the appear ance of delicate bush, although it's slender stalks or fibers are built up by thousands of minute animals, some thing as the coral polyp builds up the coral. It is found, says the New York Sun, in clumps and punches on wreck age and stones and elsewhere, and sometimes it is torn loose in storms and driven ashore. The many thousands of tiny creatures which have built it up and inhabit it die, and the dead bush IS called skeleton. Its fibers shrink some now and they are even finer than they were. They may be a foot in length; sometimes nearly two feet. They are brown, some punches being dark and some of lighter shade.
 As the children of the carpenter adorn themselves with shavings from their fathers workbench, so do the children of the fishermen with the ser tularia cast up from the sea. Its fibers are pretty nearly straight, so they can- not be made to serve as ringlets, as curly shavings do, but the girls take the longer, finer punches, which arc us- ually the lighter in shade, and make of them long brown tresses. The boys make great mustaches of the sertu- larla, and flowing Dundreary whiskers and sober boards. In wandering along the shore one might come upon 6 stranded boat hauled high above the tide with her side stove in, perhaps, so that she would not float, but occupied by adreaming youth in sertularia beard and mustache, who imagined her gal lant ship and himself her bearded com mander

prise of the general run of operators
 who were looking for lower range on account of Saturdays bank statement
 and weak cables from London. A decline soon followed and the market ruled rather weak until late in the afternoon, when a general ad- vance ensued The improvement was
 not maintained, and in the decline the industrials, internationals, Manhattan and Western Union scored losses of Ii
 @11a per cent.
 The weakness was due to a belief that the Bank of England rates of
 discount will be advanced on Thursday
 and also to the big dry goods failure in
 Philadelphia and the increased activl-
 ty on the eSpart of the bears. Subsequently the losses reported were
 regained and there was some buying on the belief of a big sound money vic- tory in Maine. Toward the close the
 both accounts and the market left off
 barely steady.
 London firms bought St. Paul and operations were unimportant. Neither the reduction in the posted rates for
 sixty day bills to $4.S2, nor the weak
 ness of silver had any influence to speak of on the railway speculation. Net changes show losses of 14@9s per cent. outside of Northern Pacific pre- ferred, Northwest and Manhattan, which gained as@4a per cent. Tobac- co, however, lost 1as per cent. Tn hn iYo dropped 5, to 46, and rallied to 491s. Bonds were dull and lower. Sales were $643000.
