A HUMELED DANDY.
The Heartless Trick Played Upon Him by
 Lord Randolph Churchill.


 At an entertainment once, where Lady Randolph Churchill was playing on the piano, says Kate Fields Wash ington, a tall youth was observed pay ing a languid and rather insolent atten- tion to the music, standing close enough to the performer to have his comments easily overheard by her. ''Lord Randy" was close at hand, too, and presently heard the vapid youth remark: "Deuced fine music, you know, but it lacks veal soul-it lacks veal soul" To the critics astonishment, a muscular young man, with a big mustache, whom he had not noticed before, whispered in his ear: ''For a shilling I'd wallop the life out of you!' He hastened to withdraw, but without discovering the identity of the author of the menace. The next day, to his delight, he received an invi- tation to the Churchills' home, which he accepted with avidity. On entering the house he was met by his threatening neighbor of the night before, who, he at once discerned, must be Lord Ran dolph. He proceeded no further than the entrance hall, for Churchill beck oned to the drawing-room, and out foated Lady Churchill. ''This fellow has come to apologize to you for his re- marks of last night" hissed Lord Ran dolph. "Now," to the stranger, down on your knees!" Down went the dandy, isping out the most abject plea for for giveness. Then he was turned over to footman to be put ignominiously out of the door, while the host followed his retreating figure with roar of de- risive laughter.

EXCURSIONS TO PRESCOTT.

Since the inauguration of the new and unexcelled passenger train service on the s. F., P. &s P. railway, you can 20 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:2O 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 a radius of one mile from Prescott. For fur ther information write or call on B. W. Gillett, acting general agent, Phoe- nix, Ariz.

How Society People Go 8 Wheeljng-At-
 tending Groons and Maids.
 The form of bicycling is beginning to be studied. Grooms on wheels must follow their mistresses as they did on horseback; it is probably only ques- tion of short time when the 1ady's maid will have to include wheeling with her other accomplishments to secure a situation. On tine road the woman who wishes to ride la mode has to know a number of little things that are over- looked by another woman, just as the smart set have a code for riding and driving that is as inexorable as that they should not eat with their. knives or put sugar on oysters. Socitty in sists on an upright position, with, of course, no attempt at racing pace. It also frowns upon constant rin nging of the hell-that will do for the vulgar herd who delight in noise; the welI-in- formed wheelwoman keeps eyes and ears alert and touches her bell rarely.

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 less expense than ever before. For particulars call on or write B. w. Gillett, general agent, Phoenix.

HARD TUSSLE WITH BRUIN.

Oregon Hunter Attacks Rear with an
 Ordinary Jackknife.
 J. c. Hearing, who vas hunting and trapping in the Blue mountains, 8 few miles west of Elgin, met with little ad- venture with bear recently that might have proved rather serious to him had il not been for the intervention of one of his dogs, says the Portland Oregonian. He was engaged in setting traps, and as he had considerable weight to carry he had no weapon with him except jack knife, and on his rounds his dogs dis covered the winter quarters of a bear in a big hollow tree. The bear was at home, and was pretty much alive, as sub- sequent events proved. As bear pelts are quite valuable, Jake was quite anxious to secure this one, but was afraid that it he went to camp, mile and half dis his pochetknife to the end of a stick and attempted to cut the animals throat. He only succeeded in inficting some pain ful flesh wounds, which so enraged the brute that it suddenly came out of it's hole, and was almost on him when one or his dogs made sudden onslaught on the animals rear, which diverted his attention long enough to enable Jake to dodge behind a. tree, and the dogs soon made it SO tropical for the bear that it was glad to take refuge in tree, where they kept it until a gun was procured from camp, when the animal was quickly dispatched.

The New York World quotes Sena

The New York World quotes Sena-
tor Daniel as follows:
Nothing could be more illogical
than the nomination of President
Cleveland for third term. There is
not the least essence Of logic in the
proposition. His nomination would
be an abandonment of every principle
the party has ever avowed. You can
saw that in the World for me. l
would not support any man for a
third term.
Senator Daniel probably meant to
say that he would not support MI
Cleveland for the nomination. Some
of his friends, however, interpret the
above to mean that he will not vote
for him, if he is nominated by the
Democratic Convention. But, what
ever the action of Senator Daniel
might be in such an event, the tone
of the Press of the State and the eX-
pressions of dissatisfaction with Mr.
Cleveland which are heard on every
hand, would seem to indicate, that
the nomination of Mr.. Cleveland by
the Democratic party, would be, tc
say the least of it, dangerous eX
pertinent. Senator Daniel would vote
for him, perhaps, but so many Demo
Gratis would stay away from the polls
if Mr.. Cleveland is the nominee, that
Virginia could be very we'll classed
among the doubtful States.

The bill to abolish compulsory
pilotage upon coastwise vessels was
defeated in the House of Representa-
tives, as indicated by the following
from the New York Journal of Com
merce, in the interest of Mr.. McKin-
ley:
The bill to abolish compulsory
pilotate, under the State law, was
beaten by a vote of more than two to
one Monday in the House, as the
result of political deal Ringing on
the Republican nomination for the
Presidency. The deal was made be-
tween the representatives of the
pilots on the one side and Major Nc
Kinley's managers on the other. By
its terms it is expected that Mckinley
delegates will be chosen in the Caro-
linas and in Florida in return for the
solid Mckinley vote which was given
against the pilotage bill Monday.
This was the conviction of all the
managers for the bill, and it was
supported by the character of the
vote.
The above is given as another
proof of the fact that Republican
legislation is always political, and
that they do not even hesitate fol
the sake of political advantage, to
strike down a member of their own
party. Of course the justice OF the
measure never entered into their
calculations. 1t was matter OF nc
consequence to them that pilots
should continue to extort money tor
services which are neither wanted OF
needed,

Cincinnati, April 12.-Judge j. H.
D. Stevens, of ST. Louis, chairman OF
the National Executive Committee
to the American Protective Associa
ton. passed through Cincinnati to-
night on his way to Boston.
Regarding the fight that the A. p
A. is making against Mckinley, Judge
Stevens said:
ut is true that the a. P. A. viii
not give to Major Mckinley its sup
port, either for the nomination or fol
the election in November, should nc
be nominated. His record is such
that no A. p. A. member who is true
to his principles and who has not
been weaned away from the Associa
ton by promises of an Office can sup
port it. Mr.. Mckinley has never
recognized this organization"
Judge Stevens then enumerates
various grievances against Mckinley,
among them the neglect of Mckin-
ley's managers to grant an A. ?. A
committee an audience in Washing
ton on the 25th to the 30th OF last
March, and the fact that Mckinley
himself left unanswered kilograms
sent by the committee to him.

sentatives and senators. The eXer
cises were held on the lawn at Jefrer-

hundreds of people from the sur
rounding towns and farms. Three
addresses were delivered, the first by
Chauncey Black, the second by En-
Governor Russell, and the third by
Senator Daniel, of Virginia. All OF
the speeches were very tiue, but the
greatest enthusiasm attached to
those of Mr.. Russell and Senator
Daniel on account of their entirely
opposite views on the money Ques-
ton.

G. r.. Va. as second-class matter

The commission merchants of Bal
timore, through our columns this
week, submit their views on the bar
rel question, and in such plain and
practical way that no shipper of pro-
duce can fail to comprehend what
they mean, or what is expected of
them if they want the best returns
for their produce-and it is to be
hoped, that our farmers will be wise
enough to profit by the advice which
is given them. Indeed, no other
course seems to be left to them but to
use barrels of fair and uniform size,
and none others IN our opinion ought
to be used, or for the most part will
be used, unless the same returns are
made for pony as for a fair barrel
of produce.

We published last week for the in
formation of the public and partlcu-
larly the justices of the peace, the
law passed by the last Legislature OF
our State, requiring the justices OF
the peace to try all cases OF misde-
meanor, and by misdemeanors Is
meant all offences of whatever kind
against the criminal laws OF the State
which are not punishable by con-
fnement in the penitentiary or by
death. But, the clerk of the court
informs us, that the J. P's. are still
sending him recognizances to answer
indictments for misdemeanors. This
new law requires the j. P's. to try
the cases of misdemeanor brought
before them, and if the parties are
found guilty to impose such punish
ment as the law prescribes for the
offence, and if not found guilty, to
acouit and discharge the prisoner.
The law gives the prisoner the right
to appeal from the judgment OF the
J. P. to the county court; but the
Commonwealth has no right OF
appeal.
