From THURSDAYS Dailv.O

Despite having worked with dill
genee, the soliciting committee of the
Fourth of July celebration was yes
terday unable to make a complete re-
port. Some of the contributions par
tally promised have not yet material
lied, and 1t is expected it may require
several days. to complete the work of
securing funds for the celebration.
Although the exact amount already
subscribed has not been announced, it
is understood that the committee has
already collected about $1,000. The
executive eommitto has allowed the
solicitors more time for work, and viii
probably not attempt any of the de-
tail work for the celebration until they
shall have received the full report of
those collecting funds.
Unofficial reports have been reeeiv-
ed here to the effect that the hose team
Of jerome and that of Cananea, which
are expected to compete here, are in
daily practice, and are training in
way to make it a very fast team that
win carry of first money.
The committee on printing is anx-
iously waiting to be allowed TO begin
its work, particularly as to getting ont
the first posters, which are to be
sent 70 all neighboring points. IT IS
hoped that this work with many of
the other necessary details may be I'M
dertaken before the end Of the present
work.

ONE OF THE PUZZLES.

Even a modest young girl thinks it
strange that man doesn't understand
all the queer clothes that a woman
wears. Yet the average man who
has been married forty years, and who
has had ever so many female rela-
tives, usually cannot describe a wo-
mans raiment to save his life. He
would rather undertake to build a
truss bridge than to dress the baby.
He would be deeply offended if any
one called him dull, yet these small
things are apparently quite beyond his
comprehension.

TIE FOURTH OF July.

Preparations are now being made by
the committee appointed for the
Fourth of July celebration, and every
merchant ought to be Interested in this
annual event, living to the fact that
it brings to the city so many out-of-
town people.
While it is true that the business
houses viii be closed on this festival,
still every person that is brought to
the city win spend more or less money,
and this win ultimately find its way
into the marts of trade.
Every city tries to make a eelebra-
ton on the Fourth that win outdo
that of its neighbor. Here in Pres
colt we expect and intend to produce
a display that win be the wonder and
admiration of not only our own peo-
pie, but the guests who win be enter
tanned on that glorious day.
The committee appointed to car
vats for the necessary funds VIII
again resume its duties. It is uatrr-1
that there win be some grumbling o.
the part of a few when they are called
upon to contribute to this very laud-
able purpose, but it should be re-
membered that the committee on sub
seriptions is aetuated by the best Of
motives. What is good for Prescott
is good for its merchants; consequent
~ there should be an unanimity- of ae-
tion.
