The installation of officers for Bar

cussion on Tuesday afternoon and it

of the chairman of this section, the
president of the club, Mrs. b. ID.

Mrs. y. l.. Munds was leader Of
the day and the meeting was opened
with a sketch of Wagner's student life
and early career by Miss Amy Nelson.
A sketch of the closing years of
Wagner's life, written by Mrs. Munds
was read by Mrs. I. H. Bate. Mrs.
Munds then gave talk on Wagner's
famous opera, and had it illustrated
as she progressed, with instrumental
and vocal selections from it. The
first of these was a prelude from
Lohengrin, " by Mrs. W. A. Cline on
the piano, and the next "Elsa's
Dream and the "Bridal Procession"
also by Mrs. Cline, on the piano,
"Lohengrin's Eternal Farewell to
Elsa" was sung by Miss Eta De

MAUD MULLER OUT WEST.

Maud Muller with the tresses dark,
Was stenog for a mining shark.
Her job consisted in chewing gum,
Answering duns and keeping mum.
But biz got bad and Maud grew pale,
And the shark had a bunch that he'd
hit the trail.
But a sucker ambled in one day,
His whiskers looked like a bale of hay
He wanted to buy some stock Of
course,
And flashed a roll that would choke
a horse.
The shark with a con that would melt
your mouth,
Soon had the sucker travelling south.
He told him of houses, lots and land,
Of legs he could pull if he had the
sand;
Of mine he had that was ten feet
wide;
Went a hundred a ton where it had
been tried.
Then loaded him up with the brew of
Lemp,
And started him off to the Hassay-
amp.
The fish wrote east that he's struck it
sure.
When they tumbled they set up an
awful roar.
And of all sad things of tongue or
pen,
Is the way they wait for a dividend.
Of all bold deeds that are done by
dark
Was the way that sucker was merged
into a shark

Statement of Stewardship.

Prescott, Ariz., Jan. 6.-Editor
ournal-Miner. In as much as the
Prescott public library is now com
pleted and in use the board in charge
think the public who have contributed
so literally to this great improvement
to our city may be interested in some
detail as to its cost. The following
brief summary covers the main points
Cost of lot, $500.
Building complete including arch
itect's fees, 1851. SO.
Furnishings and freight on same,
s66S.11.
Books and freight on same, 1862. 80.
Daily papers and magazines for a
year, 500.
Total cost, s14, 412.43.
OF the above amount Andrew Car
negie Carnegie donated $4,000 at the
solicitation of Mrs Henry Goldwater
aud the late Mrs. E. B. Gage. While
the board appreciates and feels CRATE
full to Mr.. Carnegie for his gift and
the stimulus to establish a library
given by it, it will be seen by in
spection of the figures above that his
donation paid but a comparatively
small part of the expesne of building
and equiping the institution, by no
means sufficient to warrant calling
it a Carnegie library as is sometimes
done. 1t is to the Iiberality of her
own citizens - pre-eminent among
whom in this respect has been F. NJ.
Murphy-that Prescott owns the sub
stantiaI and pretty structure which
now stands as a monument of their
public spirit.
The board desires to extend most
hearty thanks to the Monday club for
their CO operation and financial assist
ance.
Any information in regard to books,
ETC.. may be obtained from the Ii
brarian, but it may not be amiss to
state here that the use of the reading
room is absolutely free to all resi-
dents and non residents, and it is
hoped that every advantage of this
privilege will be taken by strangers
sojourning in our little mountain
city. By order of the board,
Mrs. W. I. Brown, Sec'y.

Samuel Bonner, of Boston, the we'll
known forecaster, has issued his
prophecy for 1904, in which be says:
81 predict that the price for pig iron,
railroad stocks and many commodities
will be lower next year than for the
year just past. l predict that the re-
publican party will be successful in
November, 1904. 1 predict that in the
year 1904 there will be a revival of
trade. Better times and higher prices
will prevail until the year 1911. The
present downward cycle of prices in
general business ends in 1904. The
year 1905 will be the beginning of a
new up cycle in pig iron and for
long continued prosperity in general
business, lasting till the next COM
merciaI revolution, during 1911. The
coming opportunities to catch Ousi-
ness and prices at their lowest limits
of depression will not happen again
for twenty years.

STEAMER SUNK;
FIFTY DROWNED
Boats CapSized Loaded
With Women.
Vessel Drifted Unmanageable For
Several Hours Before Taking
Final Plunge.

Seattle, Jan. "a report to The
Times, from Port Townsend, Washing
ton, says: ''The tug Sea Lion arriv-
ed here at nine o'clock this morning
and brought twenty four survivors Of
the steamer Clallam which sunk in
the straits at 80 this morning.
The tug Richard Holyoke also ar
rived at l 80 with more survivors.
Owing to the high southwesterly
gale and heavy sea, the Clallam be-
came manageable yesterday after
noon when off Discovery Island.
The heavy seas broke in the lights
and the vessel began to fill. All wo-
men passengers we're placed on three
boats which capsized and all we're
lost.
The Clallam's predicament was seen
from Victoria, and Geographic ad-
vices dispatched the tug Richard
Holyoke from Port Townsend to the
scene of the disaster. She was unable
to tow her to safety and two other
tugs picked up the passengers as the
steamer sank.
A later telegram from Port Town
send says that probably fifty live;
were lost on the sinking steamer many
of them being women and children.
