AN EARLY EXPLORER OF ARIZONA
And Eminent Mining Engineer Comes to Prescott to Rest and Recuper-
 ate His Health.

Captain Clarence King, one of the most prominent mining engineers in the United States, has taken up a temporary residence in Prescott hay ing recently rented the Butcher resi- dence in East Prescott.
 In doing so he was actuated from motives of regaining his health, rather than from business stand point. Captain King had an attack of whoop- ing cough about a year ago and went up to the Klondike country, on a business trip. The rigors of that eli mate did not have any beneficial ef- feet upon his ailment, and on his way home from there last fall he was taken with pneumonia and lay at the point of death in Chicago for four days. The combination of diseases has left his health somewhat shat tered, hence his trip to Prescott to recuperate.
 Captain King is by no means a stranger to this country as in more recent years he has made several visits here on professional business, while as far back as 1864 he travelled all over the country, being connected with the engineer corps of the army. There are few men living today having a more practical knowledge of the territory than he as he has ex- plored it from one end to the other, having scaled its mountain peaks and traversed its plains and valleys.
 Although only here but few days he is already commencing to expert ence an improvement in his physical condition.

Fire Saturday Night

The fire department was called out
 little after 10 o'clock on Saturday
 night for fire in the extreme eastern limits of Prescott. The building was owned by T. W. Otis and was occu- pied by Mir. Gnash, and a family connected with the Salvation army whose name was not learned. The building being located directly across the street from J. NJ. W. Moore's resi- dence. The Gnash family and the Salvation army man and his two chil- dren were all in bed, the latter's wife not having yet returned from the Saturday evening meeting. The oc- cupants of the house were awakened by the flames and succeeded in get ting the children out of the burning building, the fire having made con- siderable progress when discovered but were unable to save any of the contents of the building. The cause of the fire was the explosion of a lamp left burning in the building. The de- partment reached the scene of the fire very promptly considering the steep hill up which they had to haul their apparatus, and succeeding in preventing its spread, but the build ing is a total loss.

SHOOT THE CHUTES. |"
4 new Place of Amusement Recently
 Started in Los Angeles.

AS there are several hundred Ari- zonans who go to Los Angeles each year, it will be well foi them to know of the different places of amusement where they can go and be entertained. A new attraction has been added to the numerous places there, during the past few months and it has al ready taken its place in the front rank of them all. It is known as Washington Gardens but it is more familiarly known as Shoot the Chutes." Any one who has had the exhilarating and thrilling experience of shooting the chutes" can appre- ciate what the term means. Mir. Eliot the proprietor has secured a large tract of land inside of the city limits and has spent thousands of dollars in improving it and fixing it up as respectible pleasure resort. The chutes are the highest and longest in world, and the boats, just before they strike the water attain velocity of 100 miles per hour, making the trip a most exciting and thrilling one. He has also secured quite a collection of animals, birds and reptiles, and is adding to this feature all the time. The place has been laid out with walks and has been planted with shade trees and flowers, making it most beautiful resort A miniature railroad, capable of accommodating ten grown persons, the ever present merry-go- o-round for children, saddled ponies and carts for races, swings, trapezes, bowling alleys and numer ous other devices offer an endless varity of amusement to all. A visitor to Los Angeles on pleasure can find no better place to spend day than in this place which IS reached by street cars. The place is specially to summer tourists from Arizona, as the place is run on respectable basis, nothing being allowed on the grounds to of fend any one.

MEMORIAL DAY
 OBSERVANCE
Interesting Ceremonies to Com memorate the Memory of the Brave Boys who Defend- ed their COuntry's
 Honor.
School Children Participate in the Ex- erciser at the Opera House m the Evening. "A Good Sized Aud
 fence in Attendance.

Memorial day was appropriately observed in Prescott by the usual patriotic demonstrations incident to its annual recurrence. The exercises of the day were under the direction of the veterans of the civil war, whose ranks in Prescott are becoming notice ably thinner each year. One can re- call many familiar forms and faces connected with the observance of this day, decade ago who are now mis- sing from the ranks of the veterans.
 The exercises consisted of the usual procession to the cemetery where the graves had formerly been decorated, where the services of the order were held over the grave of a deceased comrade, and the customary salute fired. A band of school children par ticipated in these exercises which ad- ded interest to them.
 The literary exercises were held in the opera house in the evening and were under direction of the Woman's Relief Corps, Mrs. Mary Bowen pre- siding and announcing the program. The opera house was filled to its full est capacity.
 The Prescott orchestra furnished music for the occasion which was highly appreciated by the audience, a medley of national airs eliciting special applause.
 Three numbers on the program were by the school children, two of them being songs, one of them by the little tots of Miss Strange's room and the other by those of other rooms. The third number by them was a salute to the flag and was very impressive and beautiful. Nothing is so calculated to arouse the spirit of patriotism in the young mind as exercises of this kind, while it has the additional effect of keeping it alive in the older minds of those who witness it.
 The address of the evening was de- livered by T. c. Job, and was very able and well prepared one, breathing patriotism and devotion to the coun- try in its every sentence, mingled with admiration for the valor and deeds of heroism of the brave boys who gave their lives as a sacrifice on the altar of their country when its ex- istence was in the balance.
 A double quartette composed of Mesdames Andrews and Sloan, Misses Block and Drais, Messrs Beach, Brockway, Kessler and Ashley, render ed musical numberin a very interest ing manner, eliciting the applause of the audienee.
 Miss Amelia Block also rendered vocal solo in a very effective manner.
 The exercises closed with the sing ing of ike Star Spangled Banner, the singers being behind the scenes while the flags were exposed to the view of the audience.
 Rev. Taylor, of the Baptist church, made the opening prayer and Rev. Peck of the Methodist church, pro- nounced the benediction.
 During the fntermission of the ex ercises, ice cream and cake were served by the Woman's Relief Corps, a number of young ladies passing the refreshments among the audience.

 5.-Customs taxes were wrongfully collected on imports into the United States from Porto Rico after the rati- fication of the treaty of peace, and be- fore the taking effect of the Porto Ri can act; on imports into the United States from the Philippines since the ratification of the treaty of peace, and imports from Hawaii into the United States after the annexation and before the taking effect of the Hawaiian ter ritorial government law.
 5.-The validity of duties collected, both in the United States and Porto Rico, under the Porto Rican act is sustained, and the cohstitutionality of that law is sustained.

 And oh how much that woman needs the rest sometimes. She brushes and scrubs, and rolls pastry, her temples throbbing, her back aching. her nerves quivering under the stress of pain What she would give if she could just creep upstairs and throw herself on the bed in darkened room and rest
 Rest would temporarily relieve the strain, doubtless, but it would be the same story over again tomorrow. The real need of weak, nervous women is not rest, but strength, and that real need is fully met and satisfied by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. It removes the causes of women's weak ness, regulates the periods, dries weak ening drains, heals inflammation and and cures female weakness. It tranquilizes the nerves, encourages the appetite and induces restful sleep. "Fa- vorite Prescription contains no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine, nor any other narcotic.

Harrigan with two other con. victs escaped from the Canyon City Colorado penitentiary on Monday, Harrigan, stripped the guard of his uniform and gagging him, donned the uniform himself, gave directions to his fellow convicts with whom he had been working, about the work, then slipped over the wall and made his way into Canyon City.
 When it was discovered that three convicts had escaped, Harrigan aided in the search for them, and even di- rected the officers to a bridge under which the other two convicts were found. He then aided the officers in a search for himself, and locking into box cars, buildings and other places. This was kept up for some time until some one suspected that he might be the convict. He made his escape, however, into the ice plant there, and was followed by no less than fifty persons, but the building was searched from top to bottom without revealing him. He is still at large.

The Di Vernon Waist.

The dressmaking article in the June number of The Delineator is de- voted to describing the features and construction of the style of waist called Di Vernon. The construction of this waist gives greater freedom to the arm and across the chest, and is adapted to bring out in full measure the straight front style of carriage now so popular and fashionable. It shows a tendency in dress that indi- cates a gradual conforming to the in structions of the best teachers of physical culture.
