Journal Miner: The territorial grand jury has submitted its final report at Prescott. which con- tained some startling and sensa- tional charges agalnst some of the county officials. The report was of such nature that the duties of the body were considered to be fur ther needed instead of being dis charged and adjournment was taken until December 21, when further and fuller investigation of some of the conditions reported on will probably be taken up. They repor- ted having examined thirty-six cases and having found nineteen true bills and examined 134 wit nesses, besides those examined by the committees. The grand jury
 reports that number of cases are held to the grand jury by justices of the peace, which should have been disposed of then, thus effect ing great saving to the county, Special mention is made of Congress precinct in this connection, many of the cases not meriting con sideration by the the grand jury. Severe condemnation is made of the financial management of the county hospital and poor farm and fragrant abuses are reported, where in it cites that forty-four inmates were charged and collected for, when it is alleged there were only twenty six patients in the hospital.

ARIZONA NEWS.

Enterprise: Jerome's new Con- gregational church, mention of the destruction of which has been noted before, stood the pride of the con gregation that built it only for one brief week. It was destroyed by flames one week to a day from the sabbath of its dedication The loss is $6,000, and the insurance S3,000. It will be rebuilt.
 Miner: The license committee of the city council met last night in City Attorney Sutter's offices, and in the near future will have a sensational report to make to the city council. At the meeting last night it was decided to rake the license entirely of certain small business houses, and in the case of many others cut it in half. To off set some of the sweeping reductions, the licenses on saloons and whole sale liquor licenses will be greatly increased. Just how much has not been definitely decided. The purpose of this committee is to make the saloons bear the license tax, and to relieve the small deal CTS in other lines of business of as much of the burden as possible.
 Enterprise: The man who attemp- ted to blow up the E. r. x ;. W. water tank at kodeo, has not been caught. The railroad wants him very much and has offered reward of $500 for his capture. The posters offering this reward have been put all over the country, and one of them can be seen at the Douglas depot, says the Inter- national American. The damage done to the tank was more serious than as first reported. A railroad man, who was on warship Tn the battle of Santiago, said that the side of the tank looked like the Texas where she was hit by a six inch shell from a Spanish gun. The man who did the deed did not seem to understand the action Of dynamite. He laid it on the foun- dation alongside of the tank and exploded it. Had he removed stone in the foundation and put the powder in the hole, the tank would have been completely ruined.
 Bisbee Miner: Tomorrow after noon between the hours of 5 o'clock and } o'clock the magnificent com pany hospital that has just been completed by the Copper Queen company at an expense of about $75,U00 will be thrown open to the public. Between the hours named the public of Bisbee as well as vlsi- tors in the city will be welcomed within the doors of the building for inspection of the different de- partments. Nurses and guides will show visitors through the building. The latter part of next week the building will be ready for occu- pancy. At that time the patients of the company will be removed into the building and assigned to their wards. There are four wards with sixteen beds each, beside about thirty rooms for private patients. There are two large op- erating rooms, one of them being for emergency surgical cases. Every room in the building is fitted with all modern conveniences. This Cop per Queen hospital will be for the

himself as not in sympathy with the
strikers and said they had no cause
for going out and should congratulate

AERIAL ACT.
Extraordinary Exponents of Artistic
Gymnastics.


There has never been a better nor
truer title for any kind of a troupe
than that of the famous gyn1nasts with
the Adam Forepaugh and Sells Broth
fers shows and called 1.-The Ryan and
Zorella Troupe" the greatest aerial act
on earth. The extraordinary perform
ance given by this wonderful group OF
men and women has never been APP
preached before. 1t is the first time
in the history of the circus that so
many genuine expert aerialists have
ever been simultaneously in the air,
and when it is remembered that each
of these seven men and women are stars
of the very highest magnitude in the
arenic armament, and are the union OF
the three greatest aerial troupes ever
known in this country, some idea OF the
remarkable feats may be imagined.
They will prove one of the most pleas
in features ever seen with any show,
and to those who are fond of perilous
feats in mid-air they will furnish a
most agreeable topic for conversation
after you have recovered from the
stunning amaZement their wonderful
performances will cause. They Will
be seen here when those great shows
exhibit here on Tuesday, May 10.

The school board has decided to fur
nish all members of the seventh grade
in the schools complimentary tickets
to the graduation exercises. This is
done in order to interest these pupils in
high school work, and spur them on to
a continuance of a school course. The
seventh grade is considered by educa-
tors to be a critical point in a pupils
life. as more drop out then than in any
other grade, feeling they do not care to
pursue a high school course. AT a
recent meeting of prominent educators
in Chicago the matter of max ing the
eighth grade a part of the high school
was brought up and discussed, for this
very same purpose, to interest the pu- I
pills at this critical time and put them
into the high school early. Once start
ed in the high school the percentage of
those who do not finish is small. Re-
ports at that meeting were to the ef-
feet that Marshalltown and one school
in Illinois had taken the start in max
ing the eighth grade a part of the high |
school several years ago.

FREE MEDICINE.
Mcbride G. Will Make an Unusual Offer
to Women.

to Women.
Marshalltown women know from sad
experience the folly of trying to cure
their diseases by ordinary medicine. 1t
is as foolish to expect to cure falling of
the womb. irregular menstruation or
other female troubles by the usual
stomach drugging as it would be to
cure burn or sprained wrist in that
way.
The Palm Vine treatment Is the only
scientific way of curing women's dis
eases. 1t consists of two separate and
distinct medicines: one for internal use,
and the other for direct application.
Each of these medicines sells at fifty
cents, but to introduce the treatment in
Marshalltown Mcbride &, VIII will give
with every package of Palm Vine they
sell soc. package of sanatire tablets.
and will further agree to refund the 90
cents If the purchaser is not satisfied,
This unusual offer can be continued
for a short time only, so every woman
suffering from falling of the womb, ir-
regular or painful menstruation, back
ache or ovarian trouble should take ad-
vantage at once.

CHARGED WITH CRIME
Thomas Ross, Who Shot Mamie Allen,

Will be Given Preliminary Hearing
Thursday Afternoon.

Thomas Ross, the 16-year-old DO.
who shot Mamie Allen, aged H. Monday
afternoon, with the result that the cir
died Tuesday morning, was arrested
Tuesday afternoon on a charge of man
slaughter. The information was filed
by Henry Allen, brother of the dead
girl. Ross pleaded not guilty and his
preliminary hearing was set for Thurs
day afternoon at O'Clock. His bonds
were fixed at $500.
The statute gives the law wide
range in cases of manslaughter, and
does not specify that there be shown
intent on the part OF the defendant to
kill his victim. Negligence, or the
careless handling of deadly weapon,
is given as sufficient ground for GRIM
inal prosecution.
