HOT TIMES BREWING.
The Shooting Contest on July 5 Promi'
 ses Great Sport.

The following challenge was pub lished in the Jerome Reporter this week and the accompanying letter was received by the challenger this morning:
 q hereby challenge any member of the Jerome Gun club to shoot against me at Prescott July ,, at from to 100 bluerocks, for S25 side. If the members of the club fall all over each other to accept this challenge and feel envious of the one selected to shoot against me, I make the same proposition to'each and every member of the club, or as many as care to take up the proposition.
 D. D. Mcdonald"
 "Jerome, June 26-To Center Fire Bob, Prescott, good morning:-We have received your def, $500 a ticket, and we can assure you that un less we all get drunk land we prob ably would shoot you just the same ii we were drunk, la KingmanO you will most probably have to put on your shooting clothes about July ,, for We will be there. We have men, tioned your proposition to several and each has said, we'll see how we shoot on their grounds and then let you know Very truly yours.
 Walter c. Miller"
 Just as expected, the Jerome shoot CTS are not as blooded as their sweep ing challenge in the Reporter and Mining News, to shoot against any team of five men in the territory would make them appear. Prescott has team that will do them to a finish on the 5th. Ferguson, who had not shot but twice in three years, stepped up to the trap last night and broke As out of 90. Itwas dusk when he shot his last 10.
 The Jerome boys are good shots on their own dump, but have lost every time they have gone away from home.

VOICES ESTABLISHMENT! !!
IT ALSO FINDS 4 HOME IN THE SWELL NEW BUILDING. -..CREDlT- ABLE IN EXTENT TO THE SPIRIT OF THE NEW DEAL IN OUR MUNICIPAL PROGRESS.

IA connection with the formal open ing of the Palace. the last, but by no means the least, is reference made to the business of our townsman, Her man Voge, who occupies the right wing of the structure as a wholesale liquor house. It is proverbial in business annals and rightfully so, that of all races to cast their lot in community of their adoption, none observe more fervently or earnestly a regard for the industrial advancement of their new home than do the Ger mans. Whether the land is to be re- claimed for agricultural purposes, the home surroundings made more invit- ing and receptive, the shop advanced to the highest order of skill and work manship and so Jn and on, this rule will apply more forcibly and directly to this race than any other. Mir. Voge is no exception to this rule. He came to Prescott about eight years ago, and with that tenacity characteristic of the blood of the "Fstherland" he has camped on the Hassayampa trail of our ups and downs, and in a nutshell has made an exemplary and generous hearted citizen. His business has grown steadily and surely from the beginning to the present, and why should it not. Today he maintains in his employ force of twelve men, and what better argument can there be advanced in behalf of his zeal and his business abilities when the ques- ton of home industries and the prin- ciples that go with that question, are to be considered in building up home enterprises. It is proposition in it. self that echoes back strikingly to others to observe and regard. How many residents of Prescott are there who have ever taken the time or the opportunity to examine his bottling works in West Prescotti Few if any If any are so inclined they will see not only intricate, but likewise expensive machinery as well, and if even op- posed morally to the maintenance of his calling, favorable regard will be extended him and his methods in supplying home patrons with com modity that is handled by home labor exclusively. At Congress Mir. Voge has also an extensive business which is handled by the employment of four men and two teams, the product be- ing furnished by the Prescott house. In this city he maintains, in addition to his bottling and storage rooms, complete and we'll assorted store rooms of liquors and cigars of the best grades, which are wholesaled ex- clusively. MT. Voge has competent corps of employees, among whom are John P. Bauder, chief clerk; Pete Ohlsen, foreman of the bottling works; J. K. Miller, manager of Congress branch house; J. M. Sloan, head de- livery man, along with others em- ployed in responsible positions. The disaster which overlook MT. Voge last July was a severe one to him fnan- cially, but like so many others simi- larly affected, he camped as it were in the trail of diversity and will live it down. He should succeed, for men of his deeds and citizenship are never crushed.

CLARK WINS HIS SUIT.
New York Su preme Court DIsmIsses
 Prof TreadweIrs Suit Against Him.

The New York World Friday June 2l has the following: Justice Me Lean, in the supreme court today, on the application of Atwater & Cruik- shank, attorneys for Senator William A. Clark, of Montana, dismissed the suit brought by Prof. Geo. A. Tread we'll against Senator Clark, the United verde Copper company, it's directors and Edward Bonnet, a coffee dealer in London, England, and Chas. E.. Thomas, the manager of branch house of Bennett's for the recovery of shares of stock in the United Verde Copper company, said to be now worth S30,OOO.
 Treadwell claimed that he had pledged the stock, which was only worth Sl0 share at the time he pur- chased it, with Bennett as security for an account he had with him.
 When Prof. Treadwell left London for this country there was due to Ben nett S254. Thomas came here and went to Arizona, where he sold the stock to John De Witt Burgess, who in turn sold it to Senator Clark, the president of the United Verde com pany.
 Treadwell claimed that he was will ing to pay the amount he owed Ben nett, and alleged Senator Clark got the stock for S7 share, and that he and Burgess were aware of the reasons why Thomas held the stock. He charged Clark, Burgess and Thomas with conspiracy.
 The defendants denied all Tread wells allegations, and Senator Clark averred that he had purchased the stock in a bona fide transaction.

Henry Mar quand & Co.,, the big stock brokerage firm is said to be indebted to the bank to the extent of a million six hundred thousand dollars and the inadquate security held by the bank on this loan is the principal cause of the trouble. Comptroller Dawes, of the treasury department, says there is no possibility of the government losing anything by the closing of the Seventh National bank of New York. The bonds the bank holds on deposit at the treaaury department more than cover the government debt.

Another Account.

Ocilla. Ga, Aug. 13.-Yesterday DR..
Wiley Russell. son of Mr.. Bony RUSSELL
of near Minnie, in Irwin county, was
shot and instantly killed by Will
Brantley, young white man.
DIR. russell and his father-in-law,
Mr.. George Young, left home together
In a buggy to attend to some business
in the northeastern part of the county.
On the return trip, and when about
five miles from home, they were met
and stopped in the road by Will Brant-
ley who was accompanied by his IA
ther. William Brantley. Young Brant-
ley had a double barrel gun, and told
DR.. Russell he was going to kill him.
DR.. Russell sprang out of the buggy.
and started around it when young
Brantley discharged one barrel of the
gun at him, killing him instantly. Then
turning to his father, he asked: Shall
| kill the other one?" His father told
him no, and they left.
The trouble grew out of DR.. FusseIl's
intimacy with Cullen Brantley's wife.
which caused them to separate. This
occurred some time last year. Cullen
is a brother of Will Brantley. DR..
Russell was a widower for several
years up to a few months ago when
he married a daughter of Mr.. George
Young.
Neither Brantley nor his brother have
been apprehended up to this writing.
Coroner d. B. Null was at the pro-
hibition meeting in Irwinville yester-
day, and could not have reached Fitz-
gerald. and as it is some six or eight
miles from there to the scene of the
killing, it must have been midnight be-
fore an inquest could have been held,
if at all last night
Dr. Russell belonged to one of the
oldest and most prominent families in
the county.

with the Tyson gang some two years
ago, of conspiracy to defraud through
the use of the malls.
1t is remembered that the leader. D.

summer the crop outlook was very
gloomy, but since the weather has been
reasonably favorable and now the
farmers are hopeful.
Work on the Valdosta extension of
the Wadley and Mount Vernon Rail-
road is fairly under way and is being
pushed from Douglass to the Ockmul-
gee river where it is expected to meet
the work starting from Rixville. With
through cars from Augusta to Valdosta
coming through Adrian and being met
here by through cars from Savannah to
Dublin, Adrian will become fine rail-
road point and quite stretch of coun-
try heretofore remote from railroads
