day, though there are indications that
middle age is creeping on, and with
age rather less strenuous hours. At
Potsdam the old vigorous life of ten
and twelve years ago has continued
longest. His imperial majesty rises
with the lark, dons his riding clothes,
then sits down to preliminary break
fast calculated to appal less imperial
constitutions. The ride done, the en-
peror gets himself to letters and state
papers and interviews.
The big meal of the day, compared
with our notions of what time late
dinner should be, comes at an uncom
fortably early hour. That done, the
time is spent in the family circle, or
more often at the theater; and it may
be mentioned that the play in Ger
many does not interfere with the i'm
perial habit of getting early to bed.
AS BELTS so voracious a worker and
one who spares himself so little, his
majesty may be said to enjoy his
food. He has increased in girth con-
siderably of late years. He has not
the seat on horseback that he had, let
us say, in 1895, while the contour of
his chin has grown appreciably more
rounded.
One useful quality which William H.
has to perfection is the power of in
slant application. He can take up a
piece of work and become immersed
in 1t at moments notice. Certainly
the faculty is one which no emperor
who has to travel about and show him
self should be without.
One tiny example of such concentra
tion came under my notice. The EN-
peror had come over for night at the
opera at Wiesbaden from Mainz,
where he had spent the day reviewing

New Ideas in Ribbons,

There are some new ideas in rib
bons. Bright and satiny surfaces are
most in favor. The wide ribbons for
trimming have a silk beaver finish.
One of the smartest of these is a
bright green shot with blue. A white
ribbon showered with graduated black
spots has a pattern of dark blue spots
of varying sizes. Ribbon having a de-
sign of scarlet poppies is effective.
An entirely new idea is the embroid-
cred cloth ribbons in narrow widths.
These are playing an important part
on the gowns of the moment. For
example, black ribbon has a design
of forget-me-nots. They are also seen
in the oriental colors

The Empire mine on Groom creek was closed down for about a month while new machinery is being installed for the purpose of developing the prop erty several hundred feet deeper than at present.
 Jackson McCracken, who located the McCracken mine at Signal, and after ward sold it. leaving Arizona in 1876, has written letter to Colonel H. A. Owens. telling him of his finding min eral in Baca grant away back in the eaIly period of the history of this ter ritory. He also refers to the fact that certain rock found on the grant is identical with the oil rock found in California. The grant will shortly be thoroughly prospected for both oil and mineral.-Journal-M Miner.

With a 300-ton smelter a few miles north. big garrison at Fort Whipple, and a fair prospect for oil in Lonesome valley, Prescott certainly has a very bright outlook.

 Such being the case anyone who knows anything whatever about the operations of Peruna can understand why this remedy is permanent cure for summer catarrh.

RIO TINTO'S REPORT.

 The total receipts for the year were $9166. .G2O, being $704,S5 less than those of 1900 and s456100 less than those or 1899. By these figures it is evident that the copper production of the mines is not increasing in any great measure, fact that is confirmed by the figures of production given in the report, which are: In 1899, 2O.23O tons: 19OD, 21.120 tons; 1901, 21 100 tons.
 The dividends declared in 1901 amounted to 12A per cent on the cap ital stock.-Los Angeles Mining Re view.

THE NICKUM ESTATE
Postponement of Petition for Probat-
 ing of Will.

Yesterday was the time set in probate court for the hearing of q petition for the admission to probate of the will of J. w. Nickum. Nickum is the man who died at the Sisters hospital a cou- pie Of weeks ago, having shortly before his death willed half of his estate to Dr. E. E. Prowell. He had at the same time a wife and two children living at Portland, Ore, whence he had come early last winter. He had previously willed his whole estate to Dr. Prowell. but the day before his death he changed his will, leaving half of the estate to his children. It was provided in the will that in case any woman appeared claiming to be his wife, upon the establishment of that fact she should receive 8. W. G. Beck of Port land was named in the will as the person to See that the provisions of it ill respect of his children should be carried out
 Mrs. Nickum was informed of the death of her husband and it was under stood that she was coming to Phoe nix, but letter was received from her later saying that she had changed her mind and she directed the interment of the body here. Dr. Prowell wrote to MT. Beck about the will but it ap- pears that the latter had not com- municated with Mrs. Nickum. Attor- ney Sleeves had taken some interest in the case by reason or Nickum hay ing belonged to the order of the Eagles and also because he had known him in Portland. He wrote to Mrs. Nickum and received a reply which indica ted that she was not acquainted with the situation. He wrote to her more fully and presented himself at probate court yesterday morning and suggested that the hearing of the petition be postponed until Mrs. Nicllum might arrive or be heard from. There was no opposition and the hearing went over to next Thursday.
 Claims against the estate of Charles Kinstler were presented by the admin istrators, R. L. Rogers, Joseph Mont gomery and Dr. C. F. Hawley. A de- cree establishing notice to creditors was issued in the estate of Thomas Branagh and a sale of real estate was confirmed

The facts are ! that at the Fl Paso carnival one yea ago Arizona. by rank advertising on the 1 part of the promoters on the banks of the Rio Grande was induced to journey east and pour its treasure into the laps of this traducer and his neighbors. El Paso issued q heart melting invitation to the Elks to come and lay their sun- burned cheeks against the sorrel tresses of the carnival goddess and when they 1 got there the were bundled and bumped and buncoed, and Fl Paso Elks were so conspicuous by their ab- sence that the Albuquerque and Ari- Zona boys actually took lanterns and i searched all over Fl Paso for q live 1 Elk.
