 Prescott Journal-Miner: The car nival committee at Phoenix has ap- propriated S200 for football, and the Prescott team has been invited to go down and play. The boys were treat ed so royalty during their last visit that they intend to go.

 Cleopatra, with Lillian Lewis as the central figure and feature, brought a packed house to the opera house last evening.
