GEN. FUNSTON'S
 ARRIVAL. Greeted by the Cheers of ThOus- ands of Citizens Assembled For the Fourth of July
 Celebration. An Informal Reception on Saturday Evening--A Public Reception Will Be Rendered Him in Dake's
 Opera House Tonight.

General Funston arrived in Pres cett on Saturday evening, shortly after 5 o'clock. He was met at Ash Fork by Mayor Burmister and few citizens, and was brought to Prescott by special taain., He is travelling in private car of the Santa Fe road, with c. F. Gleed, a prominent official of that road, who is a warm personal friend of his, and Prof. Lucius L. Blake of the University of Kansas.
 On the arrival of the train at the depot, the party was met by large concourse of citizens, while the Phenix band, and a number of carriages, were also in waiting. The guests were placed in the latter, and driven through the principal streets, preceded by the band. The general was cheered at every foot of the route, and he gracefully acknowledged the en- thusiastic greeting accorded him by occasionally raising his hat, and bow ing to the crowd.
 General Funston was accompanied by his wife and child as far as Ash Fork, and from there the latter con- tinued their journey to Oakland, Cali fornia, Mrs. Funston's former home.
 An informal reception was rendered General Funston in the parlors of the Hotel Burke from 9 till 70 o'clock in the evening, during which probably over one thousand people called to pay their respects and to shake hands with the hero of three wars, and a man who, on account of his bravery and daring, rose from private citizen to a brigadier-general within the short space of three years.
 A public reception will be given to him in Dake's opera house tonight, followed by dance, to which all are invited.
 General Funston will return to Denver probably tomorrow, and will not on this trip make a general tour of the territory as previously y an nounced. He made an official visit to Whipple today and inspected that place.

must deal with the blood. It must be able to eradicate and eliminate the poisons which corrupt the blood and breed and feed disease. When the blood is cleansed, the pimples, blotches, boils and other eruptions disappear, ulcers and sores are healed and the flesh becomes sound and healthy.
 THE RIGHT WAY
 to cleanse the blood from scrofula is to choose that remedy which has cured thousands of people who suffered from scrofula in its most grevious forms.
 "I am using a good many of your medicines in my practice,' writes Dr. Joseph Fike, of Lost Springs, Marion Co.,, Kansas. Wen years ago there was an emigration from Rusland to this country and there was a lady in the company who was badly affected with that dreadful disease, scrofula Her mouth and throat were in an awful con- dition, and there were Jumps on the out side, below the jaws, the size of a hens egg. Other doctors had been called and they said 1t was fatal case. I felt confident that none of my remedies would benefit her any. It came to my mind that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medica; Discovery was recommended for such cases, so went to the drug store and bought one bottle and gave it to her to use as directed. Five bottles cured her and she is well to-day. She is married now and has three healthy children"
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov- cry judged solely by the cures it has effected is without doubt the most pow erful and most perfect blood purifying medicine of the century. It is a radi- cal remedy. It goes to the root of the disease. Some preparations containing mineral poisons such as mercury are offered as cures for scrofula. These medicines only suppress the symptoms of disease for while and give the skin

IMPORTANT MINING STRIKE The Merchants Mining Company Encounters a Good Body of High Grade Ore At a
 Depth of Two Hundred
 and Forty Feet. A Property Which IS Rapidly Coming to the Front As a Gold Producer.--
 Stockholders Elated.

Last week, while engaged in run ing the south drift at the 240 foot level of the Merchants Mining Con- pany's property, strike of rich ore was made which cannot help to be most gratifying to the stockholders of that company. A two foot body of solid mineral was encountered, which assays, without sorting, S75.OO per ton in gold, silver and lead. The ore body at this point is five feet wide, three feet of which is of very fine milling ore worth S15 per ton, and the remaining two feet of the quality above mentioned.
 This property is more than making good what was claimed for it when the company was incorporated, as every foot of work done has opened up good ore and has added to the value of the property generally, and the prospects are excellent at present for its developing into one of the largest mines in Arizona.
 Stockholders of the company are very naturally elated over the pro gress being made in the development of the mines, as well as the showing which has been made with the work done, and all the indications at pres ent are that no one will ever feel sorry for having invested in this pro- perty. The mine has been an ore producer from the surface down to its present lowest workings, and the best indications for it's permanent success are that the greater the depth attained the better the ore encoun- tered, both in quality and quantity
 The property has been worked con tinuously since the company was or, ganized, and, since the completion of the railroad, one can ride on it to within 1,500 feet of the workings, two trains each way passing there daily.

KINGS EVIL.
How Ignorance and Super stition go Hand in Hand.

4 curious sight might have been seen in England a couple of centuries ago. At Whitehall or some other royal resi- dence a little group of people would shrinkingly await the coming of tue king, in order to be vtouched for the evil" The specific Uevil" was scrofula, and it was the popular belief that scrof- ula could be cured by the royal touch. Hence the common name for scrofula was Kings Evil.
 Nowadays we know that scrofula is a disease of the blood and that even were there magic in kingly touch, no ex- ternal treatment could cure scrofula. The medicine which cures scrofula

look of clearness, but after a time the suppressed disease like smothered fire breaks out with a new violence.
 It is the uniform testimony of those who have been cured of scrofulous dis. eases by the use of oGolden Medical Discovery" that the cure is permanent. In many instances the testimonial to the cure has not been offered until the lapse of several years proved how thoroughly and lastingly the medicine had done its work.
 No class of people are more grateful for the blood purifying power of the VDiscovery" than women whose faces have been marked and marred by pimples and other eruptions. The smooth skin and clear complexion which come back when Golden Med ical Discovery" has swept the blood clean of its corrupting poisons, are Q source of unfeigned delight to those who for years have had their beauty rlarred by some form of eruptive dis ease. Beauty begins in the blood, and the first step to beauty is to cleanse
