And in speaking of club affairs use
love and caution.
The lecture is over, the appeal has
begun.
1t is this, that by your interest you
encourage the one
You call president, and cause her to
feel
That your heart is in club work for
woe or for veal.
Though your hands cannot work it
matters not much
So your words do encourage the presi-
dent and 'such.
And do not let US each forget
That the principal purpose for which
we've met
Is to help each other, and so come
prepared
To give all of the good in which we
have shared.
This wise advice has Lot been given
Because so needed, but as Ieaven
For future work, for the best of club
As the best of people-will sometimes
rub
The hair in the wrong direction,
The making of rhymes is habit bad
A habit, to our friends, most distress
ing and sad
And this solemn promise 1 make my
constituents
That this is the last while 1 am presi-
dent.

ELI S. PERKINS.

The following is taken from the
Martinez Herald, of which the eandi-
date above is the editor 1t speaks for
for itself, and is repoduced according
ly: Mr.. Perkins says:
The republican party of Yavapai
county has seen fit to place the name
of Eli S. Perkins on its ticket as a
candidate for the Office of county
school superintendent. While there
was no effort on the part of myself or
friends to obtain that nomination, in
order to show my appreciation of the
confidence thus reposed in me by my
republican friends l have concluded to
accept the nomination and make the
race as best can without taking too
much time from my private business.
In the event of my election, ! shall
make the schools of Yavapai county
the object of my best and most careful
attention. An experience of eight
years in the school room has taught me
many things which it is needful for a
superintendent of schools to know.
This experience has been in various
states and territories, and in states
where the school systems have been
different. Thus it has been my good
fortune to observe the methods of
many different teachers and the opera
tions of many different systems. Three
years work in Arizona schools has
me rather thoroughly with
the system of this territory.
As a candidate | shall be pleased to
have the voters of the county look
into my past history and see if l am
the kind of man fit for this position
of honor and trust, and if, for any
| am found wanting and my
is found to excel me in
worth or fitness, [ shall deem it the
duty of the voters to vote for him;
but if, upon investigation, am found
worthy of your votes, shall be high
ly gratitied to receive them, and prom
Use that you will never regret having
cast your vote for me.

LAST SAD RITES.
Funeral of the Late John Bagby
Held on Sunday.

The funeral of the late John Bagby
on Sunday was one of the largest held
in Prescott for some time, deceased be-
ing held in high esteem by all who
knew him. The Elks, of which he
was a member, met in their hall at
l 30 O'Clock and attended the funeral
in a body.
The body which had been prepared
for burial by Fl. NJ. Maus & Co., was
first taken to the family residence Cd
north Marina street, whence it was
carried by his brother Elks across the
street to the Catholic church, where
services wree conducted by Father De
Vale, the church being filled with
sympathizing friends
At the cemetery the Elks conducted
the services by reading the beautiful
and impressive service beside the open
grave.
A rather novel and an entirely un-
usual feature of the funeral was the
presence of over a dozen Cinnamon,
members OF the Chinese Masonic or
der, of which the deceased was also
member. Although unknown to most
of his friends he joined this order in
Tombstone in 1882 and had kept his
membership up ever since.
Deceased, as formerly stated in these
columns was most favorably known for
his many sterling qualities of integri-
t. and generosity. No man who ever
went to him in trouble was turned
away empty handed, and few men in
the community had as few enemies as
John Bagby.
