McCARTHY'S DISAPPEARANCE.
AriZona's Ex-Fish Commissioner Fails to Put in an Appear ance From a Pigeon
 Hunting Trip.

J. K. Day, partner of John McCar- thy in the hunting business arrived in Prescott on Saturday evening and reported that Mr.. Mccarthy is miss ing. Mccarthy has occupied the position of fish and game commits sioner of the territory for the past four years and is also deputy Uni ted States marshal. He has been en- gagged in tripping and hunting for the past twelve or fourteen years and there are few if any in the territory who has made more money out of wild animal scalps than he.
 He received an order recently from eastern parties for specimens of the wild pigeons found in Arizona, also for four dozen fur or tassel cared squirrels, an animal found only in the Mogollon mountains and White mountains of Arizona. Mccarthy, Day, J. s. Gallett and Tom Bower went into the Mogollon mountains the latter part of May and went into camp on Clear creek, near Jones's ranch. On the morning of June 6 Mccarthy left camp to go over to Poverty flat, about three miles, to shoot pigeons, the only weapon taken by him being a shot gun. Nothing has been seen of him since. His fail ure to return the first night did not arouse any special uneasiness on the part of his comrades but after being absent two nights they concluded that some mishap had befallen him and started in seafch of him. His tracks were found in Poverty flat and were followed up into the mountains going towards Bakers Butte. Owing to the great number of pine burrs ill the mountains it was impossible to follow his trail. On June g party of nine cowboys joined in the search and later another party of cowboys from the Verde valley joined the searching party and MT. Day says that when he lclb On nulotldN ONCl bNCh1y hAOh were securing the mountains hunting for him, but no trace of him had been discovered after leaving Poverty flat.
 A party of Indians who had been in camp on Clear creek, returned to the Verde valley but on being ques- tioned stated that they had seen nothing of the missing man.
 Mccarthy, as stated above has been engaged in hunting in northern and central Arizona for over twelve years and knows every square mile so there is scarcely any possibility that he lost his bearings. The only plausible theory of his disappearance is that he has met with some sort of mishap. That he has encountered a bear, of which there are a number in that sec tion, or that he fell over cliff and he was either injured or killed. A bear appeared at the camp of the hunters a night or two after his disappearance and stampeded their horses.
 Mccarthy when he left camp wore corduroy hunting suit and had on a deputy United States marshal's badge also Workmen's badgeand Masonic and Odd Fellows badge united as he belonged to all of these orders. His wife who resides at Dudleyville has been notified of his disappearance.

 It would be ruinous if the demo- crats should capture the house at the next election. Their present policy is to oppose everything that the re- publicans support, and the control of the house would enable them to play the part of bull in the colonial china shop in great shape.
 The cabinet should be sincerely grateful to Mir, Bryan for his attitude in regard to the supreme court deci- sion. Until he broke out there was some doubt whether or not the coun- try would approve the course of the president. Afterwards, there was none.
 Of course, the country generally will have no hesitation about accept ing Mir. Bryan's prediction about Elm peror Mckinley. Mir Bryan has armed such fine reputation as an accurate prophet that no one has any longer any doubt about his prophe- ciss.
 "Consternation and despair have given place to faith and courage, the voice of calamity is no longer heard in the land, and the orator of distress and discontent is out of a job."-Wil liam Mckinley.

The president has spiked the demo- cratic guns by his prompt action in declining to be considered candi- date for third term, and knocks the prop out from under MT. Bryan's cry of imperialism.

BEAUTIFY THE PLAZA.

Every day sees another shanty or two torn down and removed from the plaza. The time set when these shanties should all be removed from the plaza was up Monday, but there are several merchants who occupy these temporary quarters whose per manent quarters are not yet finished and they are therefore unable the va cate and the board will, under these circumstances be as liberal and easy with them as possible, allowing them a reasonable time to get into their new rooms. But the empty shanties are all being torn away and a day or two will see but very few of these places left as a reminder of that ter rible July night. The generosity and kindness of the board of super visors in permitting the use of the plaza in this manner has been a great help to many of our merchants and has enabled them to pull through a very trying time. When these places are finally all cleared of again there should be a move inaugurated to beautify the plaza and make 1t har- monize with the New and Greater Prescott. With the abundant water suppl y that we shall now have. the plaza could be made very beautiful at a small outlay, and those who have been benefited by the use of the plaza should now take an active in terest in seeing that the place is made one of beauty and comfort. Let the grounds be nicely cleaned of, grass or clover planted trees set out, seats placed under the shade trees where the weary may find a place to rest. good cement walks laid out, the mis- erable remnant of a more miserable fence entirely removed, or in other words let the plaza have the appear ance of being in a real, live, wide awake city as it is, and forbid that 1t should ever return to look like it did before the fire more like a cattle corral than city park.

 Baby Comes,

In the days following the baby's birth there is often long uphill struggle to recover strength, and the nurse busies herself in the preparation of jellies and broths for the invalid.
 When Dr. Rerce's Favorite Prescrfp- ton is used as preparative for mother hood the baby's advent is practically painless, there is abundant strength to nurse and nourish the child, and a rapid recovery from the shock and strain in- sepsrable from maternity.

Sometimes l would get some better and think I would get we'll only to wake up some morning not able to rise.

That is part of the statement of one woman, mother of six children, who found new life by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is not the or dinary cares of the family nor the natu- rsl obligations of motherhood. which make women prematurely old. But it is the womanly diseases, draining away the vitality, and undermining the strength. which take the roundness aid supple ness from the form, the bloom from the cheek and the brightness from the eye.
 Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures those womanly diseases which rob women of youth and beauty It establishes reg ularity, dries eufeebliug drains, heals inflammation and Liberation, and cures female weakness. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. It brings back to the mother the ightheartedness of her bridal day. This Is the testimony of thousands of women who have re- newed their youth by the use of "Fs- yorite Prescription"

LAST NIGHTS ENTERTAINMENT.
4 Beautiful Exhibition of Graceful Mo. ton and Ease of Action By a
 Score of Little Ones.

One of the most interesting enter tainments ever given in Prescott by local talent, was that of the closing exercises of Mrs. B. H. Smiths danc- ing class last night at the opera house. The little folks were very tastily and appropriately attired for the occasion and went through their various num- ba<s in most creditable manner, eliciting the greatest applause from the audience.
 The remarkable success of the lit- tie folks in their various dances cer- tainly reflected great credit on Mrs. Smith, as a successful teacher in the art of dancing, as some of the dances given would have reflected credit on professionals instead of children amateurs. The programme was as follows:
 l. March. Republicans and demo- cTats.

 3. Cracoviane. Miss Edith Cat field.
 1. America. Master Lowry and Miss Storm.
