THE NEWS OF
PRESCOTT

Prescott, Ariz., Dec. H. Especial
Correspondence of The Republican,
Mr.. John Lawler has returned from his
trip through California, from San Di-
ego to San Francisco and return, and
reports a slight boom all over CaIifor-
mia resulting from the recent oil discov-
cries there. In an interview with him
he says he is about to erect a brick
building just south of the Hawkins
building, which will contain store
rooms and offices, the brick for which
building is now being held for him by
the firm OF Fitzsimmons &, Co. of this
city. This, by the way, is the only
brick available for building purposes at
present, and the prospects are that
there will be no more to be had before
spring. Lawler and Wells are the own
ers of the first fifty feet adjoining the
old Bellevue house, and Mr.. Lawler
owns the next fifty, while the next
fifty feet are owned by Wells and
Hazletine, upon which $50 feet Mr..
Lawler says will be built, commencing
as soon as brick can be obtained, store
rooms and offices, which will make
continuous brick block between the
corner of Gurley and COrtez streets
and the Head house next adjoining the
postoffice. 1t is said that plans have
been already submitted and considered
favorably on the tearing out OF the old
Bank of Arizona building, and the re-
building of stores and office buildings
from the Hawkins building to the cor
ner of Gurley street, and on that latter
street adjoining the electric light and
telephone offices, and that they are
only awaiting word from Mr.. Halle
tine to go on with the work, to pro-
coed at once with the proposed demol-
ishment and rebuilding.
Mesdames E. B. Gage and Henry
Goldwater, who have been kept busy
for the past few weeks in soliciting
subscriptions for the building of the,
new public library, have at last. sue

AMERICANS IN SOUTH AFRICA.

My observation has been that Amer
leans in Cape Town, and, in fact all
through South Africa mainly favor the
British. Without doubt this is partly
due to the speech in common of the
two people 1t is partly due to a COM
munity of business interests. But it
is largely due to a feeling of resent
ment at Dutch eXclusiveness.
We here in America have too long
been accustomed to throw the door
wide open to immigration and confer
the franchise at the earliest possible
moment, so that when our people go to
the Transvaal they are astounded to
find two-thirds of the population and
four-ffths of the property without re-
presentation. Most Americans go as
did, progressed in favor of the
Beers. Most if they remain long, be-
come British sympathizers. This is
the rule. or course, exceptions can be
/ found. Those who have partaken of
Dutch hospitality do not turn their
backs upon their hosts.
| While much may be said for the
! Dutch in South Africa-for their cour-
age, their industry and admirable sim
| plicity of life-it must be owned that
Americans find the English more COM
panionable, easier to deal with in bus
4 mess, and vastly more alert. The

ious oligarchies in one case an autoc-
racy) have long been at a standstill.
/ They dwell in the seventeenth century,
and dream of the barriers they built
against the stormy North Sea- The
American and English are peerine over
the brink of the nineteenth century. 1t
may be precipice before them, and
they may be riding to a fall but they
are riding. Which is the better way 1

thirty years and has been in constant
correspondence with his maiden sister
in-law. The first act opens with the
household in a furry of excitement
and preparation, as he is expected mo-
mentarily. In the meantime a sutton
for the hand of one of Mr.. Goodly' s
daughters induces Ebenezer to accom-
pany him to a glove contest in the in
terest of anatomy, and after some per-
suasion the professor goes. The con-
test is supposed to have taken place in
q private club and the police raid the
place. The professor and the young
man escape and are pursued by what
they supposed was q policeman, but
he is none other than a spectator who
is being pursued himself. The man en-
tiers the house after the professor and
after a few explanations relates how
he whipped the policeman, and the
complications begin. There is Jones' -
He is the man of the world who lives
by his wits, and who says in explain
ing his business that when he strikes
a slow town he sells prayer books, and
a lively town playing cards" AS the
police are around and in the house all
the time, they are compelled to shield
Jones, anu 10 the family ne is
duced as the reverend conference.-the
brother of Ebenezer. So the story com
plicates itself through three acts and
works out admirably. the most laugh
able part occurs when the reverend
gentleman makes his appearance. Jones
has many funny scenes with him, one
in particular is very amusing. There is
a sanitarium close by and Jones makes
it appear to the family as though he is
one of the inmates who has escaped.
The professor is also kept busy, as
Jones has convinced his wife that he is
a very sick man and must be kept in
bed. Through all this Jones is put
ting up bluff game of love with the
maiden sister and a real game with
one of the daughters. Mr.. Clarke has
been particularly fortunate in the Sc
lection of his company, which includes
several remarkably beautiful women,
who will wear some stunning gowns.
He has also staged the comedy elabo-
rately and has spared neither care nor
expense in any detail.

THE JONES ACCIDENT.

of his first starring tour in a remark

comedy by George H. Broadhurst,

The play was received with generous
appreciation by theater patrons and
the press of San Francisco in every
way equaling that of New York and
London. The plot admits of u pleas
ing variety in dialogue and many hui
morous situations. The story treats
of Ebenezer Goodly, who is a professor
of physical culture. His interesting
family consists of Il wife, her maiden
sister, and two beautiful daughters.

GARCIA MUST HANG.
The Death Sentence Pronounced in
Prescott on Friday

At 10 o'clock this morning Francisco
Garcia was brought into court to hear
the sentence of death pronounced
against him in accordance with the
verdict of the jury which convicted
him, says the Journal Miner. Although
the announcement had been previously
published that he would be sentenced
this morning but very few were enough
interested in the proceedings to be
present.
Garcia maintained the same stoii1
expression Of countenance that has
characterized him during the trial and
never manifested any emotion during
the proceedings. The judge fixed the
date of his execution on Friday, Feb
ruary 2 between the hours of 10 a. m.
and 2 p. m.
No motion for new trial or notice of
appeal has been filed in this case as is
almost always customary.
