 The bet that B. A. Hardy IS pa rading in last Sundays Gazette, as a vote catcher for Davis, that one "Erastus Crook bet Dr. D. T. Fly att even money or its equivalent that Davis would defeat Wood two to one in this county" is SC insig niticant as to merit the supreme contempt of all right thinking peo- pie. Crook is a hot Davis man, and in his enthusiasm for his idol, he actually offered to bet hat on the terms named, when Dr. Hyatt told him he would take that bet. No "money, or it's equivalent" was put up, and what is more is. quite likel will never be, since Dr. Fly att will probably never demand the

From this 700 foot level, and as soon
as conditions will warrant, drifting
will be commenced and a cross cut
run to intresect large body of ore
that is thought to exist some distance
off.
Superintendent Staunton is Justly
elated over his successful manage
ment of the water, and as soon as prac-
teal will commence active operations
on the Emerald, the Tranquility, the
Silver Thread, the Lucky Cuss, the
West Side, the Toughnut, and the
Comet, the last named four having
been put in shape for the work that
is soon to be resumed, while the three
former shafts are being worked upon,
and are nearly completed, all of which
have been sunk to water level.
Two hundred carloads of ore have
been shipped by the company since
the advent of the railroad into the
camp, and from two to three carloads
go out daily. There are 200 men on
the.pay roll, and that number will be
considerably augmented in the near
future, as the Consolidated Mines COM
pany, says Superintendent Staunton,
is anxious to push development.

HURTING THE UNIONS.

1t is pity that organized labor
should be overreaching itself whenever
it has a chance, says the Santa Fe New
Mexican. A labor union is a mighty
good thing for those that belong to it
but il is feared that some of the bull
doing tactics resorted to recently in
the name of organized labor will
create decided public opposition. At
Telluride, Colo, citizens have driven
out the labor leaders. At Albu-
querque recently a non union man
was attacked and beaten on the streets
simply because he was not a member
of labor union. At Washington
the okbinders' union attempted to
set itself above the laws of the United
States, but was wise enough to with
draw from its untenable position. At
La Junta, union men walked out be-
cause their pay checks we're day late
and as a consequence La Junta may
lose the big railroad shops. The wiser
men and the cooler heads in the labor
organizations should call halt and
bring back unionism into conserva-
tive lines. There is no other way for
this nation to prosper but for capital
and labor to work in harmony when
ever possible, even at sacrifice to
either party. Any other course is
bound to be followed by hard times,
the unemployment of thousands of
men, lower wages and general finau-
cial disaster.

The Good Templars.

The twelfth annual session of the
grand lodge of Arizona, 1. D. G. T.,
will convene in Prescott on Wednes-
day, August 10, at two o'clock and
continue in session two or three days.
Grand Secretary Walbridge of Phe-
nix, is now in town, arranging for
the gathering, and will remain until
the close of the session. 1t is expect
ed that there will be large attend
ance from the thirteen lodges in the
territory, as the railroads have made
a very low rate for the occasion, with
return limit to August 81, which will
permit visitors from the tropical
south to remain in this ideal summer
resort long enough to get cooled off.
Granite Lodge No. II will attend to
the entertainment of the visitors, and
will also have charge of all local ar
rangements. Members of the local
lodge will invite the citizens of Pres
colt to join them in extending a vel
come TO members OF the Grand Lodge
in a public reception on Wednesday
night, in one of the city churches.
Thursday will be devoted to business
sessions of the Grand lodge, morn
ing, afternoon and evening.
1t is expected that the business of
the session will be completed in time
to hold a public meeting on Friday
evening which will be addressed by
Grand Chief Templar Gibson of
Tombstone, Grand Secretary Walbridge
of Phenix and other visitors.
The local lodge will meet on
Wednesday evening next to complete
arrangements for the Grand Lodge,
and to elect delegates to it.

Have Mines UnWatered.

The mammoth pumps that were in
stalled and have been forcing the wa
ter from the Tombstone mines for
something over one year have fulfill
ed the most sanguine expectations of
the management, says the Prospector.
So successful has been the work of
unwatering the mines that during the
past two weeks the labor of the pumps
has been lessened 400, 900 gallons hav-
ing been deducted from the daily flow
of ,, 500, 600 gallons. The main shaft
is now down 1G0 feet below the old
workings, when the mines were tenn
porarily abandoned owing to the tact
that the machinery of that day was
inadequate to cope with the enormous
floods encountered when the GO0-foot
level was reached.
Now that modern machinery has
accomplished that which was deemed
an impossibility, few years age, the
pessimist may rejoice and shout, al

complished but the work has not been

Building Good Homes.

j. NJ Green, the we'll known mill
man and carpenter. came up from the
Hillside section few days ago to
purchase a bill of lumber for the cree
tion of fine new residence for Robert
Shultz. The lumber was shipped yes
terday and Mr.. Green will leave for
Hillside this evening and will begin
the erection of the house at once.
Mr.. ShultZ has one of the finest
ranches in this county, and in fact it
would be hard TO find nicer place
anywhere, and he has decided to have
d house built just to his liking and
especially for the climate of Thomp-
son valley. The plans are something
on the order of the old Spanish style.
There are four separate rooms ON the
ground floor, with large halls eight
feet wide between them and forming
something like a court in the center.
The upper story simply has two large
rooms. There is a very wide porch
clear around the house, and the lower
floors will be cement, making it one
of the most comfortable buildings that
could well be imagined for warm
Mr.. Green has just COM
pleted the erection of comfortable
dwelling house for Henry Ritter ON
his ranch in that neighborhood.

Two Kinds of Brabery.

Dr. S. NJ. Wright, who is now so
journing in this city, and who has
favored the journal Miner with a
number of excellent poems, contribut-
ed one recently entitled 1.-TWO Kinds
of Bravery which which has attract
ed more than ordinary interest. The
particular sort of bravery which he
brought out prominently was that of
the miner to whom he paid beauti-
full tribute. He has received the fol-
lowing letter from a Fairhaven, Mas
sachusetts, banker who is constant
reader of the Journal Miner, in which
the writer shows his appreciation of
the poem:
81 have just read your poem Two
Kinds of Bravery and pronounce it
fine. 1t presents the true side of a
miners life and should be published
far and wide, wherever miners are
found whether with gloves on or not.
When men like yourself engage in the
business and can truly portray its
dangers and the quiet courage re-
quired to rend the rocks and wrench
from the depths of nature the ore and
mineral necessary to supply the wants
of trade then will the people better
understand the work and the life of
the miner and the profession be ap-
preciated, respected and duly honor
ed. 1t is good supplement to your
previous poem ON temperance.

Death of Mrs. Farren.

Mrs. John Farren died at her home
in Prescott this morning at three
o'clock, from injuries received last
Sunday afternoon in runaway acct
dent between Prescott and Granite
Dells. Mr. and Mrs. Farren were on
their way to Granite Dells to spend
the afternoon and in attempting to
pass buggy on the road they drove
too high mp on an embankment throw
ing Mrs. Farren out of the buggy and
the horse became frightened and began
to plunge and jump and finally step
ped on her crushing in her side, from
the effects of which she died as above
stated.
Mrs. Farren is we'll known to nearly
every one in this section, having lived
at what is known as the Half Way
house between Prescott and Fort
Whipple for the past twenty one
years. Her first husband, Tommy
Long, died some five or six years ago,
and she was married to Mr.. Farren
about two years ago. She was a good
hearted woman and had many friends.
She was % years of age.
The funeral will take place on Sun
day. The remains will be taken from
the late residence of deceased at 40
p. m. and services will be held at the

Orchestra Concert.

Music and dancing was the order of
the evening at Odd Fellows hall last
night, the occasion being the second
promenade concert and hop of the
Prescott Orchestra. This local organ
iZation was out III force being repre-
scented by twelve members. The or
chestration was evenly balanced, the
stringed instruments predominating,
and the orchestra was never in better
condition before. They played with
force and precision, modulating in the
soft passages and emphasizing the
fortzandos with good effect. The or
chestra rendered concert programme
of eight selections at the opening of
the entertainment, consisting of the
ever popular "Hearts and Flowers, F"
selections from the opera 'Storks, -
and other melodies. They were as
sisted by the mandolin quintette who
were compelled to respond to an en-
core. The gentlemen forming the
quintette are Messrs. Major, Petit
bone, Lamson, Littler and Pettibone,
and their playing added much to the
pleasure of the evening. Following
the concert program the floor was
cleared and dancing INDUCED in to
the strains of the orchestra.
The front of the hall was prettily
decorated with Indian rugs and palms.
Punch and refreshments were served,
and altogether the evening was de-
lightfully spent.
Owing to the threatening condition
of the weather and the fact that many
patrons of this class of amusement are
out of the city, the attendance was
not what it deserved to be, as it is
doubtful if there ever was a better
concert rendered in the city by home
talent, and the evening was ideal for
dancing.

A Veteran Surprised.

Yesterday was W. H. FergusOn's list
birth day, and last night was the reg
ular meeting night of the Woman's
Relief Corps. The members of the
Grand Army of the Republic had been
invited to be present at the hall and
as soon as the regular business of the
lodge had been finished they all re-
paired to the residence of Mr.. Fergu
son and gave him genuine surprise
party. The ladies had prepared fine
lunch which they took with them and
Mrs. Ferguson, who had been taken
into confidence in the matter, had
also prepared a number of toothsome
dishes, and after an informal program
of songs, recitations, army stories, fish
stories, and stories,a bonuteous lunch
was served. The evening was one of
real enjoyment to all present and no
one enjoyed it more than Veteran
Ferguson.

Henry Clews in his Weekly Circular
says that the crisis in Wall Street APP
pears to have reached its climax, and
from now on improvement may be rea-
sonably expected, accompanied, of
course, by the usual set backs Incl
dental to convalescence. Experts
seem to agree in diagnosing the all
ment which has attacked the stock
market with such severity as financial
gastritis--the inevitable result of an
i'll advised attempt to swallow an i'm
mense quantity of indigestible securi-
ties. Singularly, the attack has been
most severe upon those who took part
IN this sumptuous meal; but fortu-
nately, owing TO vigorous constitutions
and heroic applications of the hydro
pathic or liquidation treatment. the
disease did not become sufficiently
acute to develop symptoms of hys-
terra or panic. The unhappy patients
have suffered severely by their under
writing commitments; nevertheless a
valuable lesson has been learned, and
the experience should have its value
to observers and all interested.
