Summary Of Condition in Arizona
 Section.
 With the exception of Yuma county, bhe southern parts of Ysvapai and Mo- jsve county and western Pima county, thunder showers have consinued to be frequent throughout the Territory dur ing the psst week. The showers were mostly local in character and the amount of rainfall at one time in any place wss in mcsb instances light. But they were of such frequent occurrence btat there are now but few grazing dis sriots outside of those above named where there ie not sufficient moisture to keep the ranges green. And, but few f any farming districts where the canals are not supplying sll the water needed for crops not yet matured. Ex- csssve rainfall occurred in some places, damaging grain and hay yet in the fields and causine washouta on rail roads
 O. the whole the condition of crops and ranges have greatly improved dur Ing the week. h southern Apache county wheat is nearly ready to cut, bhe second crop Of alfalfa is being har- vested and apples gre ripening. Chinob bugs are doing some damage.
 The grain crops and third cutting Of alfalfa in Grshem county have nearly sli been harvested.
 Some wheat in soush Nav6J county has bsen badly damaged by rust.

The Smalley Quartette.

The performance of the Smalley
Grand Concert Co, at Olympia Thea
ter, last evening, gave universal sat-
isfaction to an audience composed
largely of our best musicians. Nearly
every number was encored. The very
first outburst of harmony from the
sweet wclltrained voices seemed to
place them en- rapport with their audi
encc, which was held to the closing
lullaby, a fitting sedative to the tenn
pest of melody that had enthralled
the senses Tor couple of hours. The
ladies made their appearance in that
most delightful of musical measures
waltz tlme-in which the voices blend
cd in ripping waves of enhancing
melody. Hear Dem Bells" was an
other quartette that was worthy of
special comment, the rising and falling
revcrbcrations of deep-toned bells be-
ing produced with marvellous exact
ness. BY special request, Miss Sprague
sang " Rocked in the Cradle of the
Deep" which was a splendid test of
her range and quality of voice. She
| sang the lower notes, trial severe for
male voices in the lower register, with
clcarneSs and ease. Another splendid
number was Spring Song" Gn cos
tume) in which the ear was delighted
with sea of melody while the eye was
gladdened by graceful array of Ma
lures regal Observation-Disclosures.
Marie Louise Perrine, the soprano,
is petite in form, but graceful in figure
and her voice is of good range and
warm and sympathetic in quality.
1t shows careful training, and an oc-
casional thrill indicated reserve power
that might be available in compost
tons of the highest order.
Grayce f. Gilmore and Esther
Plumb, mezzo-soprano and contralto
have splendid voices under excellent
control.
Last though not least, comes Maud
Caruthers, the elocutionist, whose reel.
tations indicated close study of the
subjects portrayed and a careful repro
duction Of the shades and phases of
emotion that at times sway the soul.
Taken rs whole, these charming
ladies are, to use a chic phrase, up to.
date, in their melody and methods,
and act their way to command the
respect and sing their way into the
hearts of all whom they have the
opportunity OF entertaining.

None But Ayers ut the Worlds Fair

There was only one blood purifier
admitted at the Worlds Fair, Chicago.
1t was Ayers Sarsaparilla. All others
were shut out because they did not
meet the requirements of the Fair Com
missioners. Ayers Sarsaparilla only
was accorded the honor of an entry, be-
cause it did meet those require
ments. In othor words, the Worlds
Fair authorities found Ayers Sarsapar-
lila to be an honest, scientific prepara-
ton, the only one of its kind they could
endorse. That was good testimony that
Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best blood
purifier made. Furthermore, hundreds
of physicians say it is, thousands of
druggists say it is, millions of patients
say it is. Take it, ailing friend, and you
will say it is.

lions.

Failing to refute the logic of my
arraignment of the veto, the Palad-
iun, uses the Yankee argument asking
questions, and | will answer each of
severally:
LIST. "What pig?" Your pig, the
one which was hurt
I'd. "Does a pig apc?" Certainly Il
trained pig initiates and apes human
beings.
Sd. "Does an ape squeal?" have
never pulled a wild apes tail to know
what sound it would make, but the
Olympian and Palladium apes do
squeal.
4th. "Can either of them lecture?
Naturalists say that wild apes can,
and certainly any pig could instruct
either Rathbun or Scobey in newspa-
per ethics.
9Th. Possibly Daniel don't know
it, but astronomy tells us that moons
do not scintillate." never accused
the Palladium of scintillating, but en-
quired when it did so. If it has been
anything but moon rejecting a dull
light will Bro. Rathbun produce the
copy?
The Olympian quotes the Paliad-
ium's admonition stick to
law or prune growing" How can one
"grow prunes" in Thurston county?
Scobey, in his paper, killed all the
prune trees last winter.
7th. / am tainted with being a
failure as q lawyer and this accusation
has rs much to do with the veto us
any other item in either of the Rogers
organs. But is it not possible that |
have been as successful in that profess
sion as either of these competitors?
BY innuendO Scobey challenges q
comparison as to success or failure
in our respective avocations. | sug-
gest conference of our creditors to
decide this interesting question.
Palladium and Olympian, can you
get no ray of light from your "sun
and Governor" but one personal to
myself?
You have each been convicted as
accessories after the veto, with circum-
stantial evidence creating strong sus-
piciOn that you were accessories before
the fact; Price and Rathbun orally
approve it, the former declaring that
if he were Governor he would have
vetoed the bill, the latter saying that
good reasons not assigned exist to JUS
tify the veto, while Scobey is more
cautious and only spits venom at those
who criticise the man who downed
Sullivan.
If the capitol is built during Rogers
administration, how can Scobey con-
solidate the southwest combine and
control it for himself? Unless he can
draw the $4,000 as Governor, what Il
useless fight he has waged against re-
ducing the salary.

Weather Report,
GENERAL SUMMARY FOR MARCH.


March, which is proverbially
blustcry, stormy, month, fairly eclipscd
its previous record in Washington in
the matter of a succession Of cold days,
with frequent rain, snow. and high
winds and gales.
There was more precipitation than
in any year on record except 1894, and
the average temperature was the
lowest Of any March since the record
begun. The number OF days with
precipitation was greater than in any
March for the past seven years, and
the number OF clear days less. The
sevcrest cold spell of the month was
that eliminating on the 18th, during
which the temperature went down to
below zero at several points in eastern
Washington. In the western section il
did not reach zero, except at mountain
stations.
y furious gale in the coast section
on the 18th caused much destruction
Of timber, and it did considerable
damage in harbors to weak wharves,
and small craft insecurity moored. In
the towns poorly constructed, build
ings were injured, fences and signs
blown down, etc. The gale reached
velocity of 40 miles per hour at the
Seattle station, so miles at Tacoma,
and 80 miles at Fort Candy, at the
mouth of the Columbia river.
March is usually a spring month in
this State, and farm work is usually
well advanced; this year the season is
three to four weeks late, but it is ex-
pected to result beneficially, rather
