4 Unique Social.

The unique entertainment which the ladies of the Relief Corps have been promising for several days took place last night and certainly was a unique affair. There was a good attendance, the banquet hall being comfortably filled.
 The ladies had prepared a number of different methods for entertaining their guests, and the hours were spent in a very pleasant manner. One of the means of entertainment was a mil linery contest. \ pile of colored pa pers, feathers of all si zes and descrip- tions, old pieces of lace, buckles, and such other things as the ladies some time use in making hats, were pro videi and the gentlemen were in structed to make hat for their lady partners and the ladies to make smok- ing caps for their gentleman partners. After the task had been finished they were marched before the judges to see who had made the best hats. Ernest Howe was given the best prize for the gentlemen and Miss Julia Roussey the prize for the ladies.
 A spelling match was another feat ure, and the difference in this match and the way the old well known spell ing matches were conducted, was that last night the words had to be spelled backwards. This casued no end of fun. Mrs. Allen Love was the prize winner-of this contest.
 After various other games refresh meHts were served and the party ad- iourned in the best of spirits.

JEROME HAS A
 CUTTING SCRAPE
Woman of the Town
 Badly Injured.
Stabbed Several Times by Man Named Wilson Who Attempted
 To Rob Her.

Deputy Sheriff Frank Nevin came over from Jerome last night with ninety day prisoner who had been convicted of forging orders at the T. F. Miller company store. The prisoner was Mexican and had succeeded in getting about sl5 worth of goods at the store on the forged orders.
 This morning about seven o'clock Mir. Nevin was called to the telephone and informed that man whose name was not known, but who had been in the camp for several days, had stab bed woman of the town by the name of Fannie Howard.
 No definite particulars of the affair were given beyond he fact that the woman was probably fatally stabbed and that the assaiIant had so far made good his escape.
 Mir. Nevin left on this morning $ train for Jerome and will make every effort possible to capture the fellow.
 A telephone message from Jerome this afternoon gave more of the par. ticulars of the stabbing.
 It seems that the woman and man whose name is Wilson, were taking iI the town last night jand both were pretty drunk at the time they went tC her house. About six o'clock thi. morning she woke up and Wilson wa: attempting Co take two very valuable diamond ear rings from her ears. A soon as he saw sbe was awake he mad, slash at her with pocket knife anC seemed to be trying to cut her ears of in order to get the diamonds. In th' fight which ensued she was terribl! cut about the head and neck, so badl! so in fact, that it took ninety on, stitches to sew up the wounds, anC the physician says he has Iittl, ! hopes of her living.
 Wilson was arrested at ten thi morning and is now ih jail at tha place. His examination will be helC
 morrow if the woman is able t, l testify.

Mrs. Fred c. Morrison, of Kingman. of which brief mention was made in last nights issue, was one that will finger in the memory of those who were fortunate enough to be present, as one of the most enjoyable parties that they have ever had the pleasure of attending in this city.
 Mrs. Morrison, who was the guest of honor, is a bride of only a few weeks, and she and her husband have been spending a few days in Prescott where the latter is well known and highly honored. Mir. Morrison having been a warm friend of Mir. and Mrs. J. c. Herndon, Mrs. Herndon took this means of introducing Mrs. Morrison to her lady friends
 Yesterday being ladies' day at the club the party was arranged to be given there and about a score of ladies were invited to meet Mrs. Morrison at a private luncheon, this being the first occasion of this kind to be given at the new club.
 The beautiful dining room was ar tisticalIy arranged and decorated for the occasion and the luncheon which was served is said by the ladies pres ent to have excelled anything ever be- fore given in the city, and all were profound in their praise of Mir. Pel- lows personal attention and excellent service. It is safe to say that tho luncheon yesterday is only the first oi many that will follow in the future.
 After the luncheon had been served
 the afternoon was spent in playing
 progressive euchre and finch, the fol
 lowing being the prize winners: Mrs. J. J. Fisher, prize for lont
 hands; Mrs. E. E. Ellipwood, priz for greatest number of progressions The bride also received a handsom

favorable news, and quickly reacted afterwards, is highly reassuring; and demonstrates anew the beneficial effect of our heavy liquidation in 1903. Had these adverse elements happened year ago they would have precipitated a panic; whereas, now they have but a transient effect and have afforded a most satisfactory test.
 The war, of course, temporarily overshadows all other influences. Jap ans's early victories encourage hopes of a short war as well as check to Russian encroachments, which latter are certainly adverse to the progress of civilization. In view of general sympathy with the cause of Japan both at home and abroad Japanese victories are likely to have a stimu- lating effect upon the stock markets, while Russian success might, on the contrary, exert depressing influences. Later on Russia may make a better showing of resistance. but the su perior alertness of the Japanese has already won them important a6van- tages.
 The Baltimore fire will not have a serious stock market influence. The best estimates are that the losses to insurance companies will fall below $50. coo. GOO, a considerable portion of which must be paid by foreign com panies. These losses will moreover be paid gradually. Some interests will benefit by the disaster, for labor, steel and building materials will be in large demand for months to come.
 Another disturbing Rature was the J long feared collapse of the speculation in cotton. Some of the bull leader: had predicted a yield as low as 9,5OO, GOO bales. while the government report showed 9,4s5. .O0O commercial bale! giuned mp t0 January 15, with a con siderable portion of the crop yet tC Re heard from. Thus far no serious
 troubles have followed the break which will,be felt with most severity in the south.
 There is just one Bother featur, which induces caution. and that is th, extraordinary borrowings of big rail road and other corporations, chief! the railroads. Within the last lev weeks over sud. eco. eco of notes. bond or other obligations have been placed on the market and more are likely t, follow.
 |. Money still appears to be easy, bu it will be prudent to await the effect of all these unusual demands, whicl will certainly interfere with any ex tended bull campaign. Speculation will have to wait until more necessar. requirements are satisfied. As sai, before. the situation is sound ant promising; but it is good time t
 move cautiously. The Norihera Sa curities case is s.i.. ta-irg ,t.. p market; and. tho--. '.rahl decision to the company r.-.i caus no surprise. ii would probably ueees sitate some very extensive shifting o plans among the big owners of rail road properties Special report O
