Strange BIunder Of Great Jurist.

The proverbial inability OF eminent
lawyers TO frame their own Wills so as
TO command the support OF the courts
has been again illustrated by the in
validating OF the will OF the late Chief
Justice Paxon OF the Supreme court OF
Pennsylvania. He devised a large
portion of his landed property for the
establishment OF an agricultural school
for poor boys. Under the Pennsylva-
MIA law Wills containing charitable be-
quests must have the signatures OF
subscribing witnesses. But the chief
justice forgot all about the witnesses
and his bequest has been held void.

W. w Rawson, father OF the well

the town will remember Among the
matters brought up at the meeting
was the question whether to use gas
or kerosene to light the town. The
town had put in a few oil lamps with
large refiectors as an experiment.
One OF these lights was put in front
OF Mr. Rawson's house, In which he
took just pride.

The total rain fall of the present storm is 3:15 inches. The rain came down in torrents. ac- companied by high wind and a light fall of hail. The damage to the streets, sewers and storm drain in the city is heavy. Both the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific are damaged by washouts and all trains are tied up.

IGNORED IN PRESCOTT
EIkS MinStrelS Enthusiastically Re-
 Ceiyed, Royalty Entertained.

All the Minstrel stags returned home from Prescott yesterday morning with their tongues hanging out and gasp inS for breath. Not that they were thirsty but they had been travelling the pace that kills, trying to get away from the Prescott stags who had con spired to kill them with kindness, and any man knows that that is a horrible death to die.
 The boys say that after the per formance Saturday night the whole town was turned over to them for the asking. In fact they didn't have to ask. It was proffered. The entertain ment was either entirely satisfactory in every respect or else the Prescott ties are masters of dissimulation The applause at the entertainment was VociferOus and sometimes almost ap- palling. After the show the company was taken to he Yavapai club and thanked in q bunch and made to feel at home there. From that time until morning every visitor seemed to be shadoWed by a Prescott Elk who was playing the role of personal host.
 The minstrels were only there one day. That day lasted from noon Sat uday until pretty late Sunday night Sunday noon the whole company was entertained ct 9 luncheon at the Va vapai club and the afternoon was de voted to a sort of reception or smoker in tta EIks theater.
 The entertainment of the visitors was
