 Miss Gussie Raible will leave to- morrow for a brief stay with friends in Chicago, Cleveland and Cincinnati prior to entering fash ionable school of music at Indian apolis, Ind. The course contem- plated by Miss Raible will keep her away from us almost an entire year. To say that she will be greatly missed by her large circle of friends is giving but a vague idea of the genuine regret that her departure will occasion. The Jour nal-Miner is quite sure that it is voicing the sentiment of the good people of Prescott in saying that we are sorry to lose her and that our wishes are all for her success.
 Frank Wells, son of Attorney General Wells, leaves Friday morn ing for Rolla, Mo-, where he will enter a school of mines. Frank is bright energetic young man and his many friends in Prescott wish for him every possible success in his new field of labor. Few young men have the golden opportunity to carve out a name for themselves that will live in history that is now within the grasp of Mir. Wells. En- dowed by nature with the ability to take advantage of opportunities, with an inherited disposition for successful business career, with all the accomplishments that money can buy at his command, it can truly be said that Frank Wells is indeed fortunate young man.
