The Most Daring Ride.

Notwithstanding the fact that Diav-
ola was quite painfully injured yes
terday afternoon from being thrown
from the loop while looping the loop,
he made the daring ride again last
night. He begged the management
to let him off from riding last night
but they we're afraid that if he was
allowed to miss the turn last night he
would never have the nerve to try it
again, so they practically forced him
to ride. When he reached the top of
the incline he was not able to stand
70 prepare for the ride, but was helped
onto his wheel and made the terrible
trip in safety. This was the most dar-
ing thing he ever did in his life that
has been filled with daring acts.

3 Cents

Eight cents a pound is
what a young woman paid for
twelve pounds of flesh.
She was thin and weak and
paid one dollar for a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion, and by TAX
ing regular doses had gained
twelve pounds in weight before
the bottle was finished.
Eight cents a pound is
cheap for such valuable ma
terial. Some pay more, some
less, some get nothing for
their money. You get your
moneys worth when you buy
SCOTS Emulsion.
We will send you a little
free.

Afternoon of Progressive Euchre

Mrs. 7. G. Norris and Mrs. Frank
L. Wright entertained about sixty
ladies yesterday afternoon at the Va
vapai club rooms. As the parlors are
not large enough to accommodate this
number comfortably the dancing hall
was utilized for the occasion.
The color scheme of the decorations
was yellow. The curtains of the spac-
ious hall we're drawn and it was
lighted by electric lights, the lamps
being covered with yellow shades,
giving soft and mellow light to the
place while a profusion of sweet peas,
banked up in the hall added their
sweet perfume to it, the floor being
covered with Indian rugs.
The two hostesses of the afternoon
we're beautifully gowned, and received
their guests at the door of the ball
room, aud during the time the ladies
we're arriving an orchestra composed
of piano and violin discourse6 sweet
strains of music.
The guests being all present they
repaired to the cafe of the club where
bounteous luncheon, such as Man
ager r. F.. Fellow is noted for provid-
ing awaited them. With drawn
curtains and the soft glow shed on
the room and ON the tables from the
electric lamps shaded with yellow the
effect was very pretty. The tables
we're arranged in convenient grouping
and at each plate was favor for the
guest in the shape of a beautiful
white rose.
At the conclusion of the luncheon,
the ladies repaired to the ball room
where the afternoon was devoted to
euchre.
Four principal prizes, besides the
consolation we're given, one for the
greatest number of euchres, one for
the greatest number of lone hands
played, and first and second prize
for the greatest number of progress
ions. Mrs. j. L. Fisher received the
prize for the greatest number of lone
hands. Mrs. r. II. BurmisteI and
Mrs. J NJ. Watts received the first
and second prize respectively for the
greatest number of progressioRs and
Mrs. Larimer the consolation prize.
Hand painted tally cards were used to
keep the score.
The afternoon proved a most agree
able and enjoyable one to all present.
In addition to the ladies present from
Prescott we're also a number from
Whipple, and Mrs. will l.. Clark, wife
of the assistant manager of the United
Verde mine, from Jerome, and Mrs.
II. G. Breeder, of Portland, Oregon,
mother of Mrs. H. c. Burmister, we're
also among the guests.

A Cure For Pneumonia.

A New Jersey health board pub
fishes the following as a we'll nigh in
fallible cure for pneumonia. ''Take
six to ten onions, according to size,
and chop fine; put in a large spider
over a hot fire, then add about the
same quantity of rye meal and vine
gar enough to form a thick paste. In
the meanwhile stir it thoroughly, let
ting it simmer five or ten minutes.
Then put in a cotton bag large
enough to cover the lungs, and apply
to chest as hot as patient can bear.
In about ten minutes change the
poultice, and thus continue by re-
heating the poultices, and in few
hours the patient will be out of dan
ger. New York Tribune.

 west or north and south with rarely confusing diagonal. Market street and its western extension, Laclede avenue. are the dividing line which separates the northern and southern sections of the city. All streets north and south from Market begin their numbering at Market, so that No. 2024 South Broad way, for example, would be 20 blocks south from Market street All east and west streets begin their numbers at the Mississippi river, so that No 3120 would be 31 blocks west of the river. Some times in long block 200 numbers are allowed.
 All trains into St Louis arrive at Union station, one of the finest rail- road terminals in the world. The sta ton is on the south side of Market street between Eighteenth and Twenti- eth streets, so that when the visitor emerges from the station he finds him self at the beginning of the city num- bering both north and south and IS blocks from the river.
 Standing on Market street with his back to the station the downtown or main business section of the city is to his right about one mile.

It is nearly 500 feet long and 250 feet wide.

One may eniy hint at the wonders it contains The historical exhibit of locomotives is one of the features It shows the de- velopment of 75 years in locomotive construction. Strange indeed is the person who is not yet impressed with these evidences of mans long struggle with the problem of rail transportation the most civilizing of modern infiu- ences, next to the newspaper, which must always stand first. To describe in detail this exhibit would be a long story in itself. The exhibit is made com plete by the installation of the largest locomotive ever built and by some magnificent imported locomotives. We cannot leave the Palace of Transporta- tion without reference to the great automobile show, the motor boats and other water craft, and the great car riage display
 Now let us cross the flower gardens to the Palace of Machinery just south Of Transportation.

But these are not all. Think of ten acres of glistening machines of every kind and you have some idea of the contents of the Palace of Machin- cry
 We cross the lagoon to the eastward and come to the beautiful Palace of Electricity, with eight acres of exhib- its from many countries which show the marvellous development of elec- trieal science.

Here are 14 acres of ex- hibits from all over the world. The Palace of Manufactures is the same size and stands on the opposite side of the Plaza of St. Louis. It is equally interesting in the variety and newness of its contents. Here again the nations of the world and the manufacturers from all parts of the United States dis play their best products.
 Opposite the Palace of Manufacture to the seuthward is the Palace of Edu- cation. this being the first time that education has been allotted a great building all it's own. A variety of schools in daily session are the feature of this eight-acre display. The two ex- hibit buildings in the eastern part of the main group are Mines and Metal lurgy and Liberal Arts.

Suggestions That Should Be Helpful the Stra in St. Louis--No Trouble When You Get Your Bear
 ings-The Greatest of Worlds Expositions

It will be worth all the self-denial that one may practice for several years to see the Worlds Fair of 1904 at St. Louis. Money saved, earned or bor- rowed cannot be better spent than in getting acquainted with the worlds progress as revealed at this latest and greatest of eXpositions. All of us can not travel around the world to take note of what the nations are doing. but the nations from all around the world desire Us to know and have sent their best works to St. Louis to be placed on display.
 Within the two square miles of the Louisiana Purchase exposition at St Louis there is more to be seen than ever was brought together in ten times the space before. It is a great eollec- tion of expositions massed into one. It is nearly twice as large as the Colum- bian exposition at Chicago, nearly ten times larger than the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo Every exhibit palace offers the equivalent of a spen- did exposition. each covering many acres of space.
 The largest of these is the Palace of Agriculture, with it's 23 acres under roof and filled to the doors with the most wonderful agricultural collection ever assembled upon any occasion. The important states and nations of the world are all here alongside great numbers of individual exhibitors. Five great staples have been chosen for ex- traordinary display Corn, cotton, sugar. rice and tobacco are here ar rayed as they have never been before and undreamed possibilities are re- vealed to inquiring minds. Such dairy display was never attempted and such a collection of farm machinery and tools was never placed on exhibition
