the Prescott boys got in four runs in the eighth. Ellis then got his second wind and again shut the enemy out in the ninth. In the first inning the Prescott catcher, Bowers, went to the bad, and his place was taken by Con- nor. In the third inning Wagner, the Prescott Boy Wonder pitcher, was knocked out of the box and went to 3rd base, while third baseman Penny went behind the bat and Catcher Con- nor went in the box. Later Prescott put in another pitcher for an inning or so.
 During the course of the game Gra- ham struck out eight men. The oth- CT side changed pitchers so often that it was hard to keep a line on them. The Prescott boys made numerous er- TOTS and had a faculty for letting the ball slip through their fingers, losing a number of flies that really belonged to them The Phoenix boys played very clean game most of the time, making very few errors, and the home team also made the only double play of the day.
 Following is the score by innings:

CHOOSING A WIFE BY MUSIC.
Novel Scheme of German Professor
for Ascerfnining the Feminine
Temperament

a German professor proposes to,
solve the difficulty some people seem
to have in choosing a wife by trial by
music" reports the London Express
Everything depends on the taste of
the subject under study. If she pre-
fers waltz music, and above all Strauss
intoXica ting strains, she is certainly
frivolous. If she loves Beethoven she
is artistic, but not practical. Does
she prefer List? Then she is ambi-
tions; while a devotee of Mozart would
be rather prudish. Why an admirer
of Offenbach should be cunning is not
very clear; but remembering the op
era of Faust" it is easy 70 understand
that any girl preferring GOunod must
be romantic and tender hearted.
1t is hard upon Flotow that because
his music is out of fashion a taste for
1t denotes a vulgar soul; while Gott-
schalk fares little better, pleasing
according to the German professor.
only the superficial. Massenet is sup
posed to attract the timid while a de-
votiOD to Wagner's music is distinct
proof of egotism. Saint Saens, how
ever is a composer the admiral tion for
whom denotes a girl of intelligence
and well balanced character.

writes:
al find that Peruna is an excellent
medicine especially for catarrhal affec-
tions and all diseases leading to con-
sumption, bronchial troubles or stomach
troubles. 1t also acts as a preventative
and keeps the system in healthy con-
dition so that it easily throws off dis
ease. 1t is an excellent tonic and a
great appetizer and as large number
of those who have been using it speak
ve"y highly of its curative powers, I am
satisfied that my opinion of it is correct,
ami that it is deserving of high praise"
j. II. Hipplegate.
Fsruna is the remedy for catarrh AL
most everybody knows that by hearsay
and thousands know it by experience.
Catarrh in its various forms is rapidly
becoming a national curse. An un-
doubted remedy has been discovered by
DIR. Hartman. This remedy has been
thoroughly tested during the past fort
years. Peruna cures catarrh in al
phases and stages. There is no remedy
that can be substituted.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to DIR. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad-

A Village Looks Like n Huge Hive of
Clay sandy Knoll
The little half civilized children of
ZCni so aroused our curiosity that we
drove through forty miles of sand and
sagebrush, from the railroad at Fort
Winsate, to pay them visit. AS the
Indians do not provide for travellers we
took our hotel with uS--tents, beds and
food-nnd camped just outside their
village. The village looks like a huge
beehive made of clay and stuck fast
to the top of sandy knoll. The hive
is f1lcd with mass of cells--30o single
rooms placed side by side md piled In
rows one on top Of another.
In each of these rooms lives 4 Zuni
family There are no inside stairways
leading from story to story, but If the
boys and girls living In one row wish
to pay visit to Il house above them
they must go outdoors and CLINT q lad

and the Zuni river are a number <of.
small vegetable gardens. each one in

inns, no shops. no saloons not even
proper streets, but only narrow alleys
that thread their way through the
strange town. AS we walked through
the village all the world came out to
see us. Girls and boys clustered on
the roofs or sat on the oyens-queer
little cones of mud which seem to grow
up ont of the house tops-while fa-s
thcrs, mothers and babies peered out
from dark doorways to stare at the
visitors. When we had finished our

who had become tired of Japan's pol

They We're returning in disgust and
in a bitter spirit toward Japan, says
the New York Sun
On the same vessel was one of the
great bankers of Japan, with his
American wife and several children.
One of these Japanese-American chill
dren is called Togo. He is about 10.
a sturdy, manly little fellow, and soon
became the general favorite on board
the ship. He speaks English fuently.
He is unusually Well informed on the
war.
Togo, or the Admiral as every
one called him, took a great fancy to
the artist of an English weekly pa
per, who has made pictures for his
periodical in score of wars and
whose name is known better than that
of most English generals. The artist,
like most of the war correspondents
who have come back, was so angry
over his treatment that he was look
ing for revenge. He had not seen
any OF the real fighting. The war in
Mancnuria IS not being waged as a
show for special respondents.
Many incidents of the fighting, how
ever, had come to his ears, some of
them not complimentary to the Jap
anese soldiers.
It is possible that the artist be-
lieyed some Of these stories to be
true. At any rate the admiral dis
covered him one day on deck making
a picture of japanese soldiers bay
