 Hawkins and Ed. Walker were in two-horse buggy going to Aultman When about 10 miles from Jerome they came to an arroya leading through the property of the Monarch Mining company.

4 Valuable OH Map.

Hall, Barlow and Austin have just issued an up-to-date, accurate. in. dexed map of the Kern county oil fields, which will be of incalculable advantage to the oil industry of that section. The maps of the four fields are those prepared by MT. Austin, and which are known the country over for their accuracy. They have been corrected and brought down to date, and are, in the new form, in- serted in the pamphlet, while on the opposite pages the companies are ar ranged in alphabetical order with the section, township and range. The new publication makes it possible for any and every person contemplating investing in stocks or land to ascer- tain exactly whether the property in which he is interested is in the proven belts, whether it is prospective oil lands or purely wildcat.
 The publishers have issued 5000 copies as first edition, and subse- quent editions will be kept correctly up to date.
 As there are great many people in Arizona who have invested in Cali fornia oil stocks, this book will be found very interesting to them, and orders for it can be sent to the Jour nal-Miner office, Prescott, and they will receive prompt attention. Price, 90 cents.

4 Desperate Gravy Man.

Sheriff Munds and Geo. Giles ar rested crazy man this morning il the rocks west of town. where he ha. been camping for few days. He shot dog last night and seemed tc be bent on adding a man to his list oi victims, and was well prepared fol committing the act, as he was armed with two Winchesters, a shot gun and a six shooter. It required a little strategy on the part of the officers tc effect the capture. Sheriff Munds succeeded in getting between him and his arsenal, when Giles grabbed him and the two succeeded in placing the hand cuffs on him. When he realized the object of their visit he abused them roundly, and said if he had known what they wanted he would have killed them both.
 The man is stranger in this sec tion and refuses to divulge his name. The only thing he will say about him. self Is that he is tourist from Phe- nix. He Is six feet one inch tall and Is very muscular in build. He had a pair of sandals made of rawhide tied on his feet. He had two burros with him and nearly wagon load of var ious articles were found in his camp.

her, she didn't realize her own weari- ness. But once at home, exhaustion over came her. If woman were thoroughly robust, without ache or pain, she could not keep this work up without under mining her health. What shall be said then of those women, who are not strong, who suffer from headache, backache, bearing-down pains, and other conse- quences of a diseased condition of the womanly organisrn9 And these women are in the great majority There are few women who are free from diseases peculiar to their sex.
 BURNING THE CANDLE AT BOTH ENDS
 That expressive saying not only sug- gests the most rapid form of waste but also the most foolish. When a woman overtaxes her strength in any cause, whether in the enjoyment of social pleasures, or in the service of church or charity, she is rapidly hastening to the end of her public activity.
 The proof of this is found right at home. Young matrons who are not dancing any more, church workers who are no more active these have not step ped aside because of loss of interest but because of lack of strength.
 There is not a weak woman who would not like to be made strong again. There is not sick woman who would not like to be made well. And there is not the least reason, in ninety-eight cases out of every hundred, why women should con- tinue to be weak and sick. The first step to the establishment of the gen. eral health is to establish the local womanly health.
 rI feel that it is only my duty to send you a statement of my case,D writes Ms. Mary E. Wilcox, of Emo Rainy RivefN Algoma Co.,, Ont. "I suffered untold misery for many years with uterine trouble, until commenced taking Dr. Pierce's good medicine and used the local treatment as advised. took two bottles of 'Favorite Prescription and two of Golden Medical Discovery I also sent for one box of your 'Antiseptic and Healing SupPositories.' have only used two and that was two months ago.

What Offended Schley.

The following are some of the offending paragraphs which appear in Macklay's History of the American Navy derogatory to Rear Admiral Schley, and upon which he bases his action asking for court of inquiry and later to base a civil action against the historian:
 ''ln his report about the coal supply of the vessels under his command, Schley exhibited either a timidity amounting to absolute cowardice or a prevarication of facts that were in trinsically falsehoods.-(Vol. IT., D. 296.)
 "Schley, on May 2S, 1898, * turn ed in caitiff fight from the danger spot towards which duty, honor and the whole American people were most earnestly urging him. Viewed in whatever light it may be, the fore going dispatch cannot be character ized otherwise than as being without exception the most humiliating, cow ardly and lamentable report ever pen ned by an American naval officer (Vol. IT., p. 29S.)
 May 2S, Schley retraced his course and arrived about ten miles off the harbor of Santiago, at o'clock in the evening. Schley says four to five miles out, but the reports of his com manding officers make it almost ten or twelve miles.-(Vol. III, D. 299.)
 "Schley was perfectly willing to avoid blanketing the fire of the Ameri- can warships, even at the risk of a disastrous collision with the Texas, so long as he could escape getting too close to danger. Schley's contri- button to naval strategy, as is plainly shown by his conduct throughout the campaign, was avoid your enemy as long as possible, aud if he makes for you run.-Vol. H., p. 365.)
 |" Let the Texas take care of her self was the heartless reply, and the shameful spectacle of an American warship, supported by force super for to the enemy's-a warship whose commander had expended such vast quantities of ammunition in target practice in the presence of a fashion able hotel at Hampton Roads in order to meet worthy foe-deliberately turning tail and running away was presented. ."-(Vol. IT., D. 364.)

 "The Prescott Journal-Miner says that advocating free coinage of silver now is on a par with adYocating slavery. As q political economist the Journal-Miner is a brilliant genius and its logic is unanswerable. Its editor ought to be sent to the Arkan- sas legislature. ."-Enterprise. Ger tainly the logic of the Journal-Miner is unanswerable, even by a Texas statesman. Slavery was killed by President Lincoln's proclamation and became dead issue at the close of the war. The free coinage of silver question was killed by the votes of the free American citizens of the United States and an act of congress following and has since been as dead an issue as slavery. An attempt to resuscitate its corpse in 1900 only sue ceeded in burying it under a bigger avalanche of votes than in 1896. Even an Arkansas statesman should have the intellectual acumen to see that so far as being live political issues, they are on par with each other.

A RattIeSnake Story.

A thrilling story comes from Men. tone, California, regarding the narrow escape of Louis Winter, the three year old grand son of William Win ter, the dramatic critic. It is said that the child played with a rattle snake and escaped its fangs. 1
 The story runs that the father went in search of Louis and found the in fant with the snake tightly grasped in his fist. The little fellow had a grip just below the head. The father called to the boy to drop the plavthig. Instead of doing so, Louis changed his hold to the tail and ran to his papa, trailing the hissing serpent be- hind him. The father crushed the snakes head and carried the little one to the house, where it was found that he had received no injuries.
 The child claims that he played with the twisting thing for some time.

For woman's happiness in the married state depends less, as a rule, upon the man she is to marry than upon her own health. The woman who enters upon marriage, suffering from wornanly weak ness, is ~heaping up trouble against the day of trouble"
 Weak woman are made strong and sick women are made well by the use of Dr. Pierce's Pavorite Prescription. It is the one reliable regulator. It dries en- feebling drains, heals inflammation and Liberation and cures female weakness. It nourishes the nerves and invgorates the entire wonanly organism.

Church Lights and Social Leaders.

Every community, however small, has its group of energetic women, who lead and light the way in every local enter prise. If it is charity, a bazaar, church fair, or any other benevolent undertak- ing, they work day and night to make it a success. They are not the women who neglect their homes to serve the public. They simply do double service. Many a husband knows what it is to bring his wife home from fair or bazaar near the hour of midnight and see her drop, in sheer exhaustion, into the first chair she comes to. While the lights were bright and the talk and langhter were all about

EDITORIAL NOTES.

oON' Auen says or Porto Rico: There is great future for the island. There IS much land that has not been cultivated. The people are eager to learn and the resources are great"
 Public opinion should demand that congress get at and make public all the facts in the West Indian naval campaign, and settle once for all the Sampson-Schley controversy, which has grown more than tiresome with the assertions and counter-assertions that accompany its periodical revival.
 If the present ratio of renunciations continues until the democratic nation al convention meets there will not be enough free silverites left to properly bury the corpse.
 MT. Bryan now realizes that John ny Mclean gold bricked him in Ohio. and suspects that Artie German has the plans laid to follow suit in Mary land.
 The Russian press has been given little more freedom, but not enough to encourage any criticism of official acts. Still, the editors are thankful for small favors from a source which has hitherto granted them none.
 Is the closingof democratic national committee headquarters in Chicago another kick at the editor who is fall ing down the hill so fast he cannot appreciate the scenery7
 One marked peculiarity of the Dave Hill presidential boom is that it al- ways reaches its greatest strength several years before the convention meets.
 The eastern hot wave has been broken and cooler weather prevails once more. It is just possible that Old Sol has had that rent in his outer wrapping, discovered by the French scientist, patched up and the excessive heat cannot now escape.
 Violence is threatened near Pitts burg Tn connection with the steel strike.
 If MT. Bryan objects to being called a back number, just call him two back numbers-1S96 and 1900.
 Great Britain is now employing ne- groes to manage her mules. Mules work best with negro chaperones.
 Ex-Senator Towne says that silver is dead and that D. B. Hill is the fav orite of the west for the democratic nomination.
 MT. Rockefeller has admitted-to the assessor, too-that he is worth a million dollars. MT. Rockefeller should be careful not to overestimate his wealth.
 While it is hardly sportsmanlike in the Texans to encourage the negroes and the Mexicans to fight, and then to stand by to watch results, it is cer- tainly one way to solve the race ques- ton.
 The public, which gets into trouble if it's bills are not paid promptly on the first, would like to know how it is that actors and actresses get the credit that continually enables them to go through bankruptcy with S1OO,OOO worth of debts.
 The gross annual earnings of the Southern Pacific company amounts to S80,0O0,OO0. Of this amount S53.OOO. 900 is paid out in expenses.
