ABOUT SCHOOL ROOM DECO.
 RATION.

The JoURNAL-MTNER some time since made mention of the latest designs of pictures for school room decora- ton. At the time of publishing the aforesaid article the paper was un- aware that the enterprising ladies Of the Monday club had already se- cured samples of these pictures. The editor has had the privilege of inspecting these and can trathfuliy say that they equal if not surpSss the description given ofthem. More appropriate school room decorations could scarcely be imagined, as the colors are pleasing ;o the eye and the pictures are historical in their nature. They are in charge of Mrs. R. R. Coleman at her residence. They are very reasonable in price aud the members of the Monday club are extremely 6 able to place a number of them in the school rooms, with the cooper - atlon of our citizens. No mere worthy object can engage the atteI- ton of any who are interested in the success of the public schools, as tie work of making them attractive to the pupils is big step towards Sc curing an interest in the schools. Several parties have already, at the solicitation of the club, puTchAs, d pictures and donated them Co the schools. Any others who are wiling to do this graceful act can be given the opportunity bv calling ou Mrs. F. A. Tritle, president of the club, or on Mrs. K. k. Coleman, or in fact on sny member of the club. For a very small outlay of money one can help along this cause very much and if a number of our citizens who are abundantlY able to do so, would each contribute one or more pictures, the bare walls of the school rooms would be made attractive and the schools become pleasant place for child ren.
 The work of school room decora- ton is just now receiving great at tention all over the country, aud the Monday club is to be congratulated for taking the initiative in Prescott in the matter. Our people should give them 8 hesrty cooperation so that our beautiful city may not be behind the rest of the country.

RIGHT AT THE HAST HEADF
First Anniversary Of the Raising of Old Glory on Cuban Soil by ar
 Arizona Rough Rider.

One year ago yesterday was the | hrst anniversary of the raising of the American flag on Cuban soil. lt Is
 a memborable day to all Americans, and espec ially so is 1t to the pride | and valor of Arizona It wss day that passed in this city without any ! incident or observance whatever.
 and aside from the few here who ! figured in the great event, 10 stlen- ton whatever was given this his to'ical occasion.
 It was an ArIzona Rough Rider to whom belongs the honor and glory of planting Old Glory on the ram parts of foreign country, and II for
 no other reason, We should all re- joice m thIs feature of the deed alone. His name IS Al Wright, and
 he came from Yuma, joining the famous regiment in this city, and following 1t from beginning 10 cad. The flag that has become So famous is back again in Arizona, ahd is sheltered in regard and devotion at the territorial capital. it was given the regiment originally by the ! Women's Relief Corps of PheniK.
 The many Rough Riders now r,- siding in this city, in speaking of the event yesterday, and 10 recalling this historical deed, do so with A feeling of almost reverence. They ssy that the Rough Riders landed at Bs- quirri about noon yesterday one year ago, and that evening about sundown Sergeant Wright, evidently on his own yolitIon, seized ,bs colors of bis regiment and sscended a block house. He then unfurled the Stars aud Stripes, and instantly every Ameri.an ship in the harbor ssluted the American flag as 1t was never done before. The scene is said to have been an inspiring one, and one too, that the "boys" say will never be effsced from memory. Two days later tAe regiment was under fire, and running hand ID hand with that flag incident, they were the first of that army of iu- Vasion 10 blaze the way for others. the noted 6gbt at Las Guasimas taking pace on the morning of June 24, lSYS.

 Tomorrow, at Las Vegas, the regi- meut again becomes urited. Many of the officers who led in that fight are again in the ranks, and though many of the beys are absent and un- able to again mIngle with their comrades, there echoes from the absent. nevertheless, Ihs tidings and cheer of the past in fellowship and devotion that only the soldier knows and feels.
