Fair Equsstriennes.

"When Penelope a-riding goes, There's a dash of gold and a vixen
 curl,
 A dimpled smile and flash of rose,
 And o, my heart, it in a whirl''
 And right here in our mountain city there is more than one Penelope who knows how to sit a steed or wield a whip as she eanters in the country or around the Murphy Drive. Never be- fore has this recreation been more popu- lar than this summer, and many of the young women are perfect pictures of health and grace.
 Mrs. .Meany is most attractive when she mounts her favorite black horse in suit of khaki, with hat and gloves to match.
 Miss Fredericks is fearless rider, and is stunning in her riding suit, too.
 Miss Helen Meany enjoys good ride also, and the Misses Helen and Alice Adams know how to sit their horses well.
 Miss Lila Hawkins rides a pretty bay, and her suit of gray is most be- coming.
 Misses Mabel and Maude Norris are often seen, too, and Miss Mabel Norris manages her horse, "Cortez" with a great deal of skill
 "Snip' is a spirited animal, but always under the control of his rider, Miss Emma Dutcher.
 Miss Helen Burmister is a graceful eguestrienne, and wears a natty suit of white corduroy and a pert three-cor- nered hat completes the fetching eos tune.
 Miss Burmister is our champion bow Ter, too. She has entered into all the athletic sports this summer, and not only has she seemed to enjoy her season to the fullest extent, but has helped others to do the same.
 Many Prescott people have automo- miles now. MT. and Mrs. O. A. Hesla are often seen in theirs; also MT. and Mrs. T. c. Job and Mir. and Mrs. F. W. Foster. No doubt in very short time these ladies will learn to manipu- late their machines themselves.

 Mrs. s. A. Hutchinson has been de- Iputized to collect specimens of rare metals. Anyone who has ore of character unknown to themselves, would do well to send her small sample of same, which will be tested for rare metals. Owners should send name and address with sample.
 It is said that the Major Co will start up again before very iong. This; company has a good property and mill on the ground ready for operation. It is to be- hoped that the company will meet with success, which depends al- most entirely on who they send out here to direct the affairs of the mine.

TERRITORIAL BOARD IS. AFTER
 LIVE STOCK.
(From Sundays Daily.)

The territorial board of equalization continues to supplement the work of the county assessors, and the county boards of equalization, says the Re- publican.
 There is general tendency to move things upward. Yesterday the board dealt chiefly with live stock, all of which was found to have been returned at too small figures. It was decided to elevate the prices of range horses in Pinal and Yavapai counties to $1O, and a uniform valuation of $40 was fixed on work horses throughout the territory. The. board is still not quite through with the stock element of the territory's wealth, but may be able to finish that part of its work shortly.
 It was thought that the matter of increasing or at least of equalizing the assessments of Improvements on mines would be dispoed of yesterday but the subject was not taken up at all. That IS about the hardest question the board has to decide.
 No one has attempted close ealcu- lation, but it is thought that when the board gets through the total valuation of the property of the territory for taxable purposes will be between s55,- 100000 and s6O,O0O,O 900.
 There were few visitors about the board room yesterday. The excite ment all passed away with the disposi- tion of the vexing question of raising the assessments on patented mines.

DEATH OF JOSEPHINE MATLEY.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Josephine Matley, the fourteen-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. Mat ley, who reside about two miles west of Prescott, died at Mercy hospital Sunday after illness of less than one week. The young lady was sudden ly taken sick last Monday, and upon the advice of the physician was con veyed to the hospital for treatment.
 Despite every possible effort to help the sufferer all efforts failed to prevent a fatal termination of her se- were attack, which was supposed to be appendicitis.
 Many friends of the bereaved fa- mily speak in the highest terms of the character, and her many aequaint- anees in Prescott join in mourning her untimely end.
