Opening a Success.

Yesterday was an ideal day for the opening picnic at Granite Dells, and the crowd in attendance is estimated at from 1900 to 1900 people. The Eagles band was in attendance dur ing the day and discoursed music. The boats on the lake were in cOmmis- sion all day while the bowling alleys, billiard room and dancing platform furnished opportunities for amuse- ment of these respective classes.
 The broncho riding contest was quite exciting, the winner of the contest being Harry Wright, the prize being s25. The main event of the day however was the ball game between Iron King and Prescott and resulted in a victory for the Prescott team by a score of l2 to ?. Prescott's new battery, the Hemus brothers, are all right, and with them the Prescott club will be able to accomplish their intentions of getting away with any team m the territory. lion King has hsrstofers bad the champion team of

Loop the Loop Act.

One of the features at the coming carnival will be Dare Devil DiavOla, in his famous loop the loop act on a biccyIe. On wheel in the air, head downward he loops the loop. Whirling through space from dizzy rim to dizzy rim his feet pointed to the stars the wheel upside down churning the air, nothing like it ever dreamed of by the most extravagent human imagina- tion. It is the limit of daredeviltry. Oiavola rides down the dizzy incline plane mounts the circle of the loop on his wheel. and he skins to the apex head downward, and then flashes out of the loop in safety.
 Can the human mind and body act as quickly as the shot that flies from the gun? The multitude holds its breath as Diavola the prince of dare devils leaps head downward across the very jaws of death. To be seen only with the Nat Reiss Southern Car nival company.

TIE APRIL AMERICAN BOY.

The Amerien Boy for April presents a front cover that will attract boys, it being striking picture of a young Indian. And who has a better right to claim to represent young America, after all, than the Indian boy. The stories in this number are The Silver Mine, by Harriet Prescott Sponord The Blue Dragon, by Kirk Munros; Three Yankee Boys in Ireland, by the Editor, snd Arty's Guardian, by Geo. H. CoOmer. The editor in his "Just Between Ourselves page talks of va rious things boys are asking about, some serious, some playful-but al ways interesting. Part six of How to Become Strong teaches boy how tS sit and how to sleep. Jas. G. Card, a Cleveland high school boy, writes of a trip he made to Washington, repre- senting'his class, to study the govern ment. Then there are all the regular departments with the hundreds of items about the Order of the Amer ican Boy, etc. s1 year. The Spragus Publishing Co.,, Detroit, Mich

WILL REMODEL
 DRUG STORE Old COVillaud Store to Be Fixed Up.
W. H. TimerhOff, of Flagstaff, Will Arrive in a Few Days to
 Take Personal Charge.

c. E. Gentry, who is in charge of the new post office drug store former ly owned by W. P. CoviIlaud, but which was recently purchased by W. H. Timerhof, of Flagstaff, has just received word from Mir. Timerhof that he will arrive in Prescott in fsS days, and begin the work of entirely remCdeling the place. He has just purchased in Los Angeles four of ths largest full glass show cases, the glass extending from the floor up. These will be shipped at once and installed instead of the small ones now in use in the store. The shelving will be spread out parallel with the walls and the fountain will very likely be placed near one of the front windows. This will allow of the partition through the room being either removed or sx- tended further back and will greatly increase the size of the store room A large and complete stock of every thing usually found in a first class drug store will be put in and strong bid will be made for share of the patronage in this city and vicinity.
 MT. Timerhoff has been in the drug business in Flagstaff for a number of years and hasjbuilt up an excellent trade, but desiring to extend his bus mess and get into a larger field, he sold his store in that city and pur- chased the Covillaud business. The Journal Miner welcomes Mir. Timer hoff to the circle of business men in this city and wishes him success in the venture.

Empire Stock Company.

The Empire Stock company went out to McCabe this morning and will present their strong four act drama, "The Avenger, in the Miners Union hall tonight. The company is under the management of Adolph Moser and is composed of practically the same people as it was at the time the "Power of Man" was presented last winter, with the addition of some three or four characters. There are twelve people all told and it is said by those who have witnessed the rehear- sals that they have splendid play and present it in imasterly manner.
 The play will be put on in the Jerome opera house on the night of the 16th of this month and in I. Q. O. F. hall in this city on the night of the 22d. Prof. Emanuel's orchestra will furnish the music for all of these places.

AN OPINION OF
 MINING EXPERT Rich Mineral Zone in
 This County.
Sees Great Possibilities in the Flu ture for Bunker Hill Mine
 Examined by Him.

Dr. Nestor A. Young, a we'll known mining engineer of Los Angeles, is in Prescott on one of his periodical visits, having come over to examine the Bunker hill mine in which he and some of his friends are stockholders. Dr. Young has reported on many of the important properties of Yavapai county during the past few years, and is therefore quite familiar with the mining interests of this section. Re- garding his present observations at the Bunker Hill the doctor says:
 "After a long and careful study of the mineral deposits of this district I am compelled to admit that many of the predictions made by your To- cal engineers and miners, and which appeared to men of the profession who were not fully acquainted with your country to be overdrawn, or at least the result of over hopefulness rather than scientific observations, are now being realized. The more l see ot this region the more completely do I concur in the opinion of the old engineers who have watched the de- velopment of your mines closely for years.
 "This is certainly one of the richest mineral zones in the world. And l may add that 1 consider the Bunker Hill one of the best properties of the district. I was particularly pleased with the results of the recent work. The further the property is opened up, the richer it shows and it is grat- flying to note also that its wealth in- ereases in extent. 1 believe the Bunk CT Hill is all that your local people claim it to be, and it is my convic- tion that with all the favorable things that are known of it here, you will still be surprised at the outcome. :"
 It is a satisfaction to receive this confirmation of the opinion of our own engineers with reference to our county and the Bunker Hill mine, although we may add without reflect ion on the doctor, that we knew these things before he told us.

 REDUCTION Rigby Smelter to Be Completed.
Machinery Will Be Shipped al Once and Railroad Spur
 Built to Plant.

The mammoth chlorination reduc- tion works at Mayer on which work was suspended some three or four months ago, are to be completed at once and it is hoped to have the plant in operation inside of two or three months. T. John Rigby. president of the Ribgy Mining and Reduction company, arrived in Prescott recently and went out to Mayer on Friday morning to consult with Edwin c. Kirk, of Wheeling, West Virginia, also one of the directors of the )m- pany and the eastern financial agent. All difficulties have now been over come, from a financial standpoint, and these gentlemen are here to make arrangements for rushing the compile tion of the plant.
 The machinery has all been pur- chased and will be shipped at once and installed as soon as it arrives which will be within the next few weeks. The grade for the railroad spur from the P. & k. track to the smelter has been completed and as soon as the track laying crew has fin ished laying the track at Grown King they will lay the track for the spur and then the machinery can be un- loaded at the plant when it arrives.
 The completion of this plant will be one of the greatest benefits to this county of anything that has happened to it in years, outside of the building of the railroads.
 The plant will be enabled to reduce thousands of tons of ore per month that otherwise would be absolutely valueless on account of the character of the great percentage of the ore of that section of the country being so rebelious that it cannot be handled with any profit by the ordinary methods of smelting or milling. The Journal Miner is more than pleased to announce to Its readers who are inter ested in the mining industry in this county, and most of them are, that there seems now to be no doubt but what this great plant will be in full operation this spring or early in tho summer.

county. There is something doing every minute and even between the minutes. The one difficulty seems to be in getting supplies, which must be 1 freighted up over the hill from Huron on the railway. There is water in plenty for all mining and milling purposes in spite of the dry weather The hills are fairly dotted with camps and mine buildings, and perforated with shafts and tunnels and the wheels of industry are humming.
 The twenty stamp mill of the Braganzs company at Henrietta is running steadily night and day. The shaft, whence this ore come is now down five hundred feet. ''The off cers and directors of the company, said endentMcLaugElin, twill arrive from the east shortly to elect officers for the ensuing year."
 Mir. Osenberg, who has been book keeper at the Henrietta, as we'll as MT. Ochhauer, assayer have resigned, and gone to Prescott. A. l.. Kramer, of Chicago, has been secured and wilt combine the duties of both bookkeeper and assayer for the present.
 Above the Henrietta some work is being done on the Cypress mine. Over in Eugene guIch a large new hoist, boiler house and reservoirs have been erected by the Alto Gold Mining company at the Paymaster mine. An upraise was made to the hoist site, 100 feet above the old tunnel. A new road has been graded to the hoist and the company is spending consider able money on what is considered the best property in the gulch. First class ore is being taken out of the bot tom of the 125 foot shaft which is rap idly being sunk deeper and great things are expected of this mine. The valuable Alto properties are being rapidly developed by Superintendent $. c. Johnson and are the most prom ising in this vicinity. Much pros pecting is going on by various per sons.
 On Big Bug creek Kent is work ing fifteen or twenty men in the 100 foot Postmaster tunnel. Twenty five men are at work in the Poland end of the geat Poland tunnel and it will be completed in a months time. At the Poland Extension some development work is being done on the Fitzhugh Lee and the Vassar owned by the Am erican Gold and Copper company. This company is preparing to com mence important operations in the Fitzhdgh Lee tunnel.
 Big Bug creek is now a consider able stream, being fed by a cOpious flow of the purest water out of the Poland and the Lotta tunnels. Be- sides supplying the plants along its own canyon, the Henrietta also pumps water from this stream to run its mill Things are expected 10 liven mp at Poland and Providence when electric cars are running through the tunnel to Walker, thus connecting five or six mills on the other side of the divide with Prescott by rail.
