G. W. and Miss Fl. A. Cotton and
Miss NJ. j. Weeks, all of New York.
arrived in Prescott on last nights
train.
The Poland road is clear again and
the train for the first time in two
weeks got through yesterday to Po-
land.
Robert Perkins, son of Hon. NJ. A.
Perkins, who has been sick with ty-
phoid fever for some time has suffici-
emily recovered to be able to return
to his home in the Verde valley.
Mr.. and Mrs. o. D. Haskell, parents
of Mrs. Ziba o. Brown, who have
been visiting the latter for several
weeks will leave tomorrow for a visit
in California before returning to their
home in Kansas.
The committee to make arrange
ments for the celebration of St. Pat
rick's day will meet this evening at
Hotel Burke at o'clock. A full at
tendance is requested.
Mr.. and Mrs. W. Fl. RuhGead will
leave tomorrow for their home in Lam
caster, Pennsylvania. Mr.. Ruffhead
is president of the Pyramid Gold and
Copper company and expects to re-
turn again to the territory within the
next three months.
The storm seems to have abated tenn
porarily at least. The clouds gave way
on Friday night to clear sky about
10 o'clock and no rain has fallen
since, although threatening weather
still prevails. The weather bureau at
Washington predicts snow today and
tomorrow.
Parties who visited the Senator sec
tion recently state that in some places
on the north side of the mountains
the snow remains on the ground to
depth of four feet or more. During
the recent rain storm in Prescott it
was showing in that section. Parties
going in with light rig had difficult
ty in getting through.
The colored comedy company had
the misfortune of having a severe
storm to contend with for an audi
ence. In consequence of 1t the at
tendance was very small, but those in
attendance state that the company
gave an excellent performance. In
fact it was said to be much better
than the average of the troupes which
have been in the habit of visiting the
town.
Five boxes have been sold thus far
for the Florence Roberts performance
tomorrow night. OF these Will L.
Clark purchased two, F. NJ. Murphy
purchased one and presented it to
Major Foster of WhippIe. E. f.
Greenwood purchased one, these
four being all on the first floor. Joe
Archambeau has taken one OF the bal
cony boxes, leaving three of them yet
for sale.
Jalor Mcconnell got his boarders in
the county Jail down to seven the
other day but along came deputy
marshal from Kiugman with China
man and unloaded him on Tailor Nc
Cornell. Then Dick Dunbar who had
gotten out few days ago broke into
Jail again and yesterday vagrant was
picked up in Prescott and crazy man
brought up from Castle creek so that
he is now feeding eleven again.
The report made some time since in
some of the Prescott papers to the
effect that A. D. Adams had returned
from California, was somewhat prema-
ture. At the time the mention was
made Mr.. Adams had just left the st.
Helena sanitarium but he has spent
the past three weeks visiting in San
Francisco and Los Angeles. He has
apparently been completely cured of
his sickness during the time he spent
at the above sanitarlum and returned
to Prescott last evening, after an alb
ence of three months.
Chief of Police Prince put the pris-
oners in the city Jail to good use dur
ing the past few days, BY having them
clean off the cross walks and sidewalks
in places where they we're extremely
muddy. If he would have them put
down piece of sidewalk on Marina
street at its intersection of Gurley,
on the north side of the latter, and
another piece on Willis street along
the side of the rear end of the Cliff
house lot he would earn the everlast-
ing gratitude of great many people
who have to traverse these thorough
fares.
