Model Excursion.

Ex-Governor R. c. Powers left this
 morning for Ash Fork to meet party
 of stockholders of the Model Gold
 Mining company. These gentlemen
 have come through from Chicago in a special Pullman car equipped with dining room and other accommoda- tions. Prominent among them is Frank Yeager of the wholesale lum- Der company of Yeager & Sons, known as the "Shingle King" from the fact that, for a time, he controlled the shingle market of the northwest. The party will spend one day at the Model mine and will also take look at some of the other mineral districts of the county.
 The Model shaft has now reached depth of 90 feet forty feet below the water line. The ore is changing from an oxide to a sul phide, but from tests made, the mine seems to maintain its reputation for high grade ore.
 The mine is well equipped with hoisting machinery and F. J. Cramer is running three shifts and pushing development work as rapidly as pos sible. The Model is expected to come to the front as one of the best divi- iend payers in the near future.

IMPORTANT TO LITIeANTS.
They May Hereafter Select the News paper for the Publication of all
 Legal Notices.

The law governing the publication
 of summons and sheriff's sales. has
 heEs.ofore been construed to give the sheriff the authority of designating the paper in which such publication should be made and personal requests for their publication in certain papers have been ignored in spite of the fact that the litigant paid for the publica- tion. The recent legislature passed law which provides that parties who pay for such notices may have them published in the paper of their choice. It reads as follows:
 All county and other officers re- quired by law to give notice of any matter pertaining to or pending in their respective offices shall publish all such notices in some. newspaper published in their res pective counties, provided, that when the cost of such publication shall not be a county charge the party at whose cost the said publication is made may desig- nate the newspaper in which said pub lication shall be made, and may con tract with the paper so designated for the payment of the cost of the said

GET A WRIT OF MANDAMUS.

The new editor of the Tucson Citi. zen is working himself up into a very excited condition over the question of Arizona's admission. He issues a ter nble threat against the republican party, if it fails to admit the territory as a state. The aforesaid editor is talking to the galleries" in his edi- torial rant" He is too intelligent not to know that it has been the policy of both parties not to admit territories into the fellowship of states, if the aforesaid territories happened to be opposite politically to the administra- tion Tn power. The Citizen says:
 "So far as Arizona is concerned, she will not pay bribe to the republican party. She demands admission to the union of states as a right. If that right is denied, postponed or obstruct- ed through the intervention of the re- publican leaders there will not be q vestige of the republican party left in Arizona, and republicanism will be- come as obnoxious to Arizona as re- construction made it to the states of the south. New England cannot ram her ideas into men who were born free and have minds of their own"
 Would not the realization of that threat be wonderful calamity to New | Engla I and the country at large gener The Journal-Miner sug- gests ..-"E tue Citizen editor gets out a manaa'uIs to compel Arizona's ad-

A WORTHY OFFICIAL.

The Tucson Star, although a demo- cratic paper. is possessed of the spirit ot fairness to have the following to say of an official of this territory who has merited all that it says of him:
 'It has been nearly four years since William NJ. Griffith was appointed United States marshal for the district Of Arizona. His appointment was most satisfactory to the people of the territory, without regard to party, for he was then as now accepted as one of the best citizens of Arizona of the pioneer class. Quiet, firm, with an abundance of courage, tempered with good judgment and prudence. It was then predicted by the Star, as well as other territorial journals that Mir. Griffith would make a most satis- factory official, owing to his traits of character, which especially qualified him for the high office. That predic- tion has been verified in the fullest acceptation of the term. It can be said without fear of truthful contra diction that at no time during the last thirty years has the office of United States marshal been so we'll admins tered, with such satisfaction to the law-abiding people of the territory as during the incumbency of Marshal Griffith. He has brought dignity to the high office. He has caused among the people of the territory higher regard for the department of justice. The spirit of persecution so apparent under some of the pre- vious incumbents of the office is en- tirely absent under the present admin istration. If it is true that the peo- pie are best governed who do not realize they are governed at all, then may it with truth be said that the laws are best administered where their administration is not felt by the good and law abiding citizens, Such has been the striking fact under Mar shal Grifith's administration of his office. The department of justice has been peculiarly fortunate in its ap- pointments in Arizona. The people of Arizona have never been so well satis- lied with the appointments of depart ment as during the present admins tration, and among them there is none who has given more general satisfac- tion, who has performed his duty so unostentatiously, so promptly, so sat isfactorily to the law abiding com munity of Arizona, as has Marshal Griffith. The president and the at torney general will receive the com mendation of all the good citizens of Arizona without regard to party afili- ations when the appointment of Will liam Griffith as United States mar shal for Arizona has been made" 4

ATTACHMENT FOR A MILLION.
Commission Claimed From W. c. Greene sSSof Arizona For the Sale of 100, 900 :
 Shares of Mining Stock.

'Of the making of books" it is said there is no end" ''Of the troubles of litigation there is no enc" seems to be equally true so far as W. c. Greene and the Cananea copper property is concerned. A New York paper of re cent date says:
 Deputy Sheriff Murray received an attachment yesterday for S1,0OO0OO against William c. Greene of Arizona, in favor of Marcus Stine, which was obtained on the ground of non-resi- dence.
 Mir. Stine alleges that Nov. 1, 1899, MT. Greene entered into an agreement with James Shirley, authorizing the latter to sell 100000 shares of stock of the Greene Consolidated Copper. com pany, and for each share that Mir. Shirley sold he was to receive one share of stock as his commission. Mir. Shirley entered into negotiations for the sale of 100000 shares of the stock to Mir. Stine and associates. The nego- tiations were completed and Mir. Greene notified of the sale and prom ised to carry it out. Mir. Stine also alleges that he offered to make the first payment of S50,000 required by the contract of sale, but Mir. Greene refused to- complete. and repudiated the sale. By reason of the sale MT. Shirley was entitled to 100000 shares of stock of the value of S10 each, and he assigned the right to MT. Stine.
 The suit was begun on January ,, 1900, and the attachment was obtained yesterday. Deputy Sheriff Murray served the attachment oh the secre- tary of the Greene Consolidated Cop per company at BIT Broadway. The sheriff received a prior attachment against Mir. Greene on February 6 last in favor of James Shirley for S6,000 for money adeadvahced.

Mrs. Blaine's Spring Goods.

Mrs. R. R. Blaine has just stocked
 up the millinery department of hel
 store with the daintiest Spring hats that ever came to Prescott. She has hats for all, the elderly, the middle aged, the young, the misses and the smaller girls. They are so beautiful, too, that. properly trimmed, they will make the uninviting features of the ugly look handsome, but then there are no ugly women in Prescott, so that they will be used for making the pret ty ones look prettier. She has secured a veritable artist, too, to take charge of the millinery department, in the person of Miss Henderson, formerly head trimmer in "The Savoy," San swell millinery store. Miss can trim hat becoming to any face or features.
 The millinery department of her store, however, is not the only feature that attracts the attention of the ladies. Her shirt waists, skirts, wash dress skirts, belts, dress goods and other too numerous to mention of ladies wearing apparel is complete and right up to date in styles.

What is a kisS7

The following are few definitions Tn answer to the question asked.
 What is kiss?"
 A kiss Is noun though used as a conjunction. It is never declipcl. Ii Is more common than proper; it is not very singular and is generally used in the prural and agrees with you and me-"
 "Something of nothing and the Lord knows it's good"
 "A conjunction which cannot be de clined."
 Two puckers drawn together by Cupid's bow string"
 "A heavens given power by which man can shut woman's mouth with out knocking her head off"
 "A damsel, describing her first kiss says that she never knew how it bap- pened, but said the last thing she re members was the sensation of fighting Tor her breath in hot house full of ylolets, with the ventilator choked by blush roses and tulips."
 A twentieth century American kiss Is a sudden contraction and relaXa- ton of the orbicularis oris and the zygomatici muscles in the contact with foreign substance, and is q safety valve for the pentup emotions ot the central organ of the vascular system when too highly inflated by the automatic beilOws-Love."
 The electricity produced by the battery of two lips, which sends warm. thrilling currents to the heart and shocks other people"

 After the programme had been ren- dered Mrs. Bowen, president of the corps stepped to the platform, and in a most impressive and fitting manner made the following presentation speechi
 Dear Friends: The occasion of our gathering this evening affords us the double pleasure, that of your presence and the opportunity given for this corps to attest in a small de- gree our appreciation of the esteemed place in which we hold the past presi- dent of the corps.
 1.-Two years ago, under the most discouraging and adverse circum- stances, when dark clouds surrounded the corps; when at times it appeared that the noble sentiments which were the foundation of our order seemed to be lost sight of, and our bark, tempest tossed and rock riven would be wreck ed upon the shoals of dissension, she bravely adhered to the principles of F., c. and L., stood at the helm, and to her credit be it said, that with true fidelity she has enabled the corps to weather the gale, and to ride safely into the haven of tranquility.
 ''To her is due the honor of the re- organization of the corps, which she has never deserted. She has at all times zealously labored for its ad- vancement.
 To-day We stand with harmony among us, each endeavoring to follow the noble precepts of our past presi- dent, with stronger and more potent zeal toward the fulfillment of the pur- poses of our organization.
 Too great praise cannot be ex pressed for this effort and the source of its inspiration.
 "As an expression of the high es- teem in which we hold the efforts of our beloved past president, the corps desires to present little token of our love and esteem.
 Past President Modem, please step forward.
 ''On behalf of the w. R. C., I pre- sent you, Past President Modem, with this testimonial of our gratitude and of your worthy efforts in the upbuilding of this corps.
 The inscription appearing thereon will ever recall to mind our favor, and we hope will be an incentive to in creased effort in our good work"
 The testimonial was a handsome | gold badge with appropriate inscrip | ions. Dancing followed, the prize for he cake walk being awarded to Ar thur Gales and Vera Greenwood.

PreScott's Next Play.

Hanging being the usual method ot extreme punishment in the majority of states, the arrangement of a deatf cell and the fittings of the electricity chair will be something of a revela- tion to the average citizen. An op- portunity to see an exact reproduc- tion of these will be given at the Dake opera house Wednesday, April 24tb where the great melodrama "The An gel of the Alley" will be presented. A perfect representation of the famous condemned" cell in Sing Sing with its intricate system of electricity wires and the method of placing the pris soner in the death chair is portrayed and the reproduction is perfect in every detail. This is the first time that such a scene has been gwen upon the stage and it has been viewed with absorbing interest by thousands.

PASSED MILLION MARK
ATTENDANCE AT PAN-AMERICAN
EXPOSITION
Short Limit Railway TIckets
Has Kept Many Away
Who Wanted Long
Visit

BUFFALO, N. Y, July THE total
attendance to date at the Pan-Amerfcan
exposition Is 1,797,S6S The exposition a.
tendance began May 20, but at that time
many features We're incomplete, and the
people remained away The average
daily attendance for June, including five
sundays, was over 81 1000. The excessive
ly hot weather during the last two WI eks
has had a deterrent influence on the at
tendance, Notwithstanding that Buffalo
is rated as the coolest city, by several
degrees on account Of the breezes from
Lake Erie. 1t Is believed that July and
August will enasily bring the total to
about 100000, and it will remain for
September and October to bring the re-
mainder Of the 10000, 900 of which the
status Of guesses has been set. At the
Chicago worlds fair 5S per cent of the
attendance was during the last two
months. Eight million paid admissions,
with the revenues from concessions, viii
pay the expenses OF the cost of the Pan
American exposition. One thing that has
perhaps counted seriously against the
attendance to date is the short limit rail-
way excursion tickets, which gives the
holder but one or two days at the expo
sition. Some of the excurs on people have
exressed themselves strongly against any
ticket having limit of less than fifteen
enough for anyone who desires to enjoy
the exposition as a festival or to profit
from 1t as a great educational institu-
ton
