Pat Sheedy on Gambling.

When asked how. if he always play ed a square game ne could always fird people he could beat, Sheedy re- piled: My, boy, sucker is born every minute, and," he added, some times twins"
 Of all the twin suckers we know of, the greatest are: The one that believes all the best drugs and chemi- calls are kept by one store; and the other is the one who believes that all drug stores keep equally as good drugs and chemicals
 The claim we make is that we dis pense nothing but pure drugs and chemicals, and our stock contains more good values for your money than all others. DIR. G. H.. KEEPER. .,-r Opera House Block

of the situation is that the disease is of very mild type.
 The exodus from this city, which began in a small way several days ago, has attained unprecedented pro portions. The state board advises all who can to leave. The most rigid local quarantine prevails nere
 First the cases were reported as malaria fever, then, after time, they became dengue fever Another wait and they were pronounced suspicious, and finally declared to be the genu- inc yellow fever. During all this time the disease has been spreading rapidly at the rate of five or six new cases daily, until there are now forty cases in existence at Edwards. The evolu- ton of the disease from malarial fever to yellow fever was such that the peo- pie now regard dengue as simply a more convenient term for yellow fe- yer.
 The state board has instructed Dr. Purnell to place a cordon of guards around Edwards. Reports say that the disease has also appeared at Clin- ton and Smiths, towns near Edwards. The state board has ordered the dis continuance of trains on the Wood vile, Miss, branch of the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley road.
 Yazoo City, Miss, has issued or ders for shotgun quarantine to be enforced. No trains are allowed to stop, except to exchange mails at the quarantine stations. No passengers are allowed to leave the train at all and all mail and express must be fumigated. Guards armed to the teeth are placed along the country boundaries, but In spite of these rig i'd rules several have managed to get in, some even coming from infected districts. Two drummers who came on Monday were taken yesterday and put on a quarantine

ALL CONDITIONS COMPLIED WITH
What a Prescott Paper Says of the F.
 6 A. c. Subsidy Bonds.

The Prescott Courier having had considerable. to say about the alleged fraudulent Yavapai subsidy bonds without advancing a single fact show ing them to be fraudulent, the Journal Miner on Tuesday printed the follow ing:
 Our contemporary has considerable to say about the fraudulent bonds of the P. 6 A. c. railroad, but it fails to state where the element of fraud ex- ists in them. The bonds were author ized by an act of the legislature They were issued on a specific contract, all the conditions of which were compiled with so far as the records show. These conditions were the building of a railroad from Seligman to Prescott. The road was completed January |, 1887, and operated till October, 1893. The county during all this time paid interest regularly on the bonds and redeemed some twenty-seven thou sand dollars worth of them and fund ed over fifty thousand more, thus rec ognizing their validity fully Moth ing in regard to their fraudulency was ever limited at until long after the road ceased operations, and the ces- sation of operation Of the road seems to be the only element of fraud now charged. It may be popular to advo- cate the repudiation of this debt of the county, but there is not a single individual engaged In that business who would not denounce similar meth ods on the part of an individual to re- pudiate his just debts.''
