train of three coaches contained about
200 people and left Prescott about s 80
for Congress arriving at that place
about noon. \ grand rush was made
for the restaurants and after the ex-
cursionists we're we'll filled up the
train again took the crowd to the ball
grounds which are about a mile
from Congress.
The people of Congress had made
preparations for the excursion in the
way of erecting a covered grand stand
which was greatly appreciated by our
people as it saved them from burn
ing sun and added much to their com
fort. The most disagreeable thing of
the day was the fierce wind which
blew during the afternoon, filling the
air with dust. When the game was
called at , o'clock it was evident that
the Congress boys were not match
for the Prescott team as they had not
had the systematic practice and conse-
quently could not work as we'll to-
ether. However, they put up hard
game and the first two innings result
ed in neither team making score.
At this time the pitcher of the Con-
gress team was hit on the right arm
with bali and was not able to pitch
the remainder of the game When the
Prescott boys went to bat again they
made three runs and from then on the
score piled up till IA scores stood to
their credit at the end of the game,
while the Congress boys had succeed
ed in getting in home but twice, and
these scores were both made during
the last inning. Corporal Clark, of
Whipple, umpired the game and his
decisions were perfectly fair and i'm
partial and gave satisfaction to all
concerned.
The following is the line up of the
two mines:
Prescott-Feldacmp, catcher; Sharp
neck, pitcher; Baker, first base; Hun
ter, second base; Joplin, third base !;
Mansfield, short stop; johnson, center
field; Hendon, right field; Cate, left
field.
Congress-Hess, catcher; c. Car
raj, pitcher; E. Carral, first base;
Rees, second base; Poncho, third
base; Bernel, short stop: Jones, cen
ter field; Creation, right field; Mesa,
left field.
The Congress boys promised that
they would get up an excursion and
come to Prescott on July Fourth to
play return game, when they nope
to be in better practice and say they
will give our boys the game of their
lives.
Messrs. James Wagner, manager of
the Prescott team and D. D. McDon-
aid, who engineered the excursion and
carried it through to such successful
termination, received the hearty
thanks of all who enjoyed the trip.

DEATH IN WAKE
OF A TORNADO
One Hundred People
Killed in Georgia.

Gainesville, Ga, June 2.-The tor
nado which visited the towns of Gain
esville, New Holland and White Sui
phur, Georgia, yesterday afternoon,
resulted in killing about one hundred
persons, according to the reports
which are as yet incomplete.
1t is estimated that forty persons
are fatally injured, and many more
hurt Probably one thousand per
sons are homeless. Two hundred
houses, besides the Gainesville cotton
mills were destroyed by the storm,
aggregating a property loss of 5000,
600.
Last night brought increased misery
to the sufferers for steady rain set
in attended 10y bitterly cold weather.
The work of rescue however proceeded
throughout the night.

NEW STRIKE IN
JEROME CANYON
A Nine Foot Ledge Of
High Grade Ore.
The Cross Cut from One Hundred
and Fifty Foot Level Reaches
the New Ledge.

The jerome Canyon Copper com
pany which has been running a cross
cut from the main shaft at depth of
$50 feet to tap ledge east of that on
which the shaft was sunk, has found
the ledge, at distance of 200 feet.
The ledge was encountered several
days since and the cross cut was con
tinued to determine its width. which
proved to be nine feet. There is a
solid body of red sulphide ore of this
width at the intersection OF the cross
cut and the ledge.
T. q. Mite, foreman of the mine,
says the ore is of the same character
as that of the United Verde mine at
jerome while the formation generally
is also similar in character to the
formation at Jerome Assays of the
suIphide ore in this cross cut gave re-
turns of 81 per cent in copper with
fair values in gold and silver. This is
considerably higher grade than the
average of the Jerome ores.
Another ledge is known to exist still
further east OH this same claim, and
with the good results obtained in
opening up this nine feet of ore, the
cross cut will be continued to strike
the other ledge, which they expect to
do within thirty of forty feet.
While doing assessment work on
another claim west of the main shaft of
the company, last week, small vein
of very rich gold ore was encounter
ed. Small samples of it can be OBJ
tanned which will go away up in the
hundreds of dollars per ton while the
ore is all very high grade though the
vein is small The ore was found
within a few feet of the surface and it
is fair to assume that it will widen
out with depth.
The company has just received an
additional boiler and air compressor
and will install machine drills very
soon. when they will commence to
sink the shaft to a greater depth.
The present outlook of this proper
ty is very fiattering. Its management
is in good hands, too. as both Super
intendent j. s. Smith and Foreman
T. G.. Mite are old and experienced
miners, and are working the mine
systematically as we'll as economI-
cally. making a good showing for
every dollar of expenditure.

ished musician, and is destined to
take high rank among musicians. 4
beautiful feature of the evenings pro
gramme was several numbers in which
Miss Bailey and her pupils appeared
and in response to encores, the latter
would give a number, showing marked
ability and careful training.
Where such excellence is shown as
was last evening, each number being
musical gem, it would be difficult,
as we'll as unfair, to pick out any par
ticular number for special mention.
Taken separately and collectively it
was one of the best musical entertain
ments ever given in Prescott.

LOSS BY FLOOD
Waters Are Abating at
Kansas City.

Kansas City, Mo, June 2.-There is
a decided Improvement in the flood
situation here this morning and a
general feeling exists that Kansas City
has seen the worst of the worst flood
in its history The water remained
stationery during the night. The
danger of famine has passed, and
railroads are confident that they will
be able to bring in ample supplies
from this time on.
There is a greater scarcity of food
in Kansas City, Kansas, but with the
opening of the electric line from
Leavenworth there will be no distress.
Superintendent Goodwin of the Water
company annouces this morning that
the water supply will be restored by
night
The first mails from the west have
come in. About two car loads of sec
ond, third and fourth class matter re-
mains in the mail sacks in freight
cars, under five feet of water.
The financial damage in the city i:
estimated by business men to be any
where between ten millions and
twenty five millions dollars. The
great danger now is in crumbling Of
the brick buildings where the current
of the flood water has loosened the
foundations of structures.
The gas supply is not yet restored
and great majority of breakfasts this
morning were eaten cold.

The flood is gradually receding anC

In the country great damage has beel
wrought, half the towns being unde
water. Near the mouth of the rive
at Keokuk conditions are the wors
today, and the situation there is ap
palling. The river is from six to eigh
miles wide. In every direction ma,
