A deep dimple Swallowed Betty's pink
cheek for n moment Then, looking de-
murely ut Jack, she answered Franks
question.
Il would he ever SO much Obliged to
you If you would just drop me at nv
door Mother scolded because | came
out, and 1t will appease her wrath
somewhat to know that l came home
without being touched by the rain"
Jack said nothing. but his face was
very pale when Betty gave him her
hand at the carriage door. Frank tried
to coax him to change his mind. but
Jack was firm, because Betty lid not
second the invitation. Just as the car
rage door was about to be closed Bet
ty leaned out
ooh, Mr.. Winslow, have decided to
20 10 the Freeman dance Friday night"
Then the carriage rolled away. When
they arrived at Betty's home neither
Frank Carlyle nor his companion saw
the figure standing in the shadow of q
tree on the opposite side of the street,
and when Frank left Betty at the door
Winslow walked away with sigh of
relief.
Anyway" murmured he, "she didn't
ask him to come in."
Friday night and the Freeman ball
came at last. Betty stood before her
mirror looking at her reflection The
white null gown. a gift from her aunt,

worth mentioning was very becoming
to the girl She had arranged her hair
after the style of Mr.. Elfland's famous
picture, and she smiled as she looked
at the change it made In her appear
ance.
IF weren't quite so pink and round
! might look something like her, but
she was pale and sad. Somehow / am
not sad | don't know why, but feel
happy. wonderfully happy"
Turning away from the mirror, she
wns just about to wrap herself in her
cloak when her sister entered the room,
carrying two narrow. white boxes. Bet
ty dropped her cloak, took the boxes
and, opening one Of them, lifted out a
deem. rich red rose, fresh and fragrant.
proudly dropping its heavy head and
filling the room with It's odor. Betty ex-
amined the box, but there was no card
Laying the rose upon the table and
turning to the otler box, she lifted
from its depths a long stemmed, half
blown pink rose, delicate and yet Won
derfuliv sweet. This rose was also
without card.
How strange murmured the girl,
that they should both have had the
same idea
For moment Betty stood silent. The
two roses lay upon the table. Suddenly
she heard her mothers voice calling to
her that it was time to start Wrapping
her cloak about her, Betty turned and
ran lightly down the stairs. A moment
later the sound of carriage wheels
rumbed along the street
But the roses? There was only one
rose now lying upon the table, only
one, but It's heavy perfume filled the
whole room. and its heart glowed like
great ruby.

The fact that the agricultural
department reports the average yield
of corn per acre in the United States
last year at % bushels shows plainly
that great many acres of corn are
raised in wasteful manner and with
out getting the results which should
attend careful cultivation OF the soil
1t is well within the knowledge OF
every good farmer that in the corn
belt an average yield of so bushels
per acre for considerable acres is not
uncommon II this is possible in
some cases it ought TO be possible for
the entire average yield to be put far
above % bushels. This work of show
ing how it may be done is one of the
things engaging the attention of the
ablest college men in the country.
The Tribune would rejoice should
the corn growers double the capaci-
ty OF their acres.

KEEP ABREAST OF THE TIMES.

It is up to Prescott to keep abreast of the times. Hundreds of people come to the city annually, and they are amazed at the improvements which are to be seen in the business section of the city, but when they view the city as a whole they ale more or less dis appointed.
 The business section contains i'm proyements such as few cities of the size in the county have, and these con ditions should prevail all over the place. It is only a question of time until Prescott will so improve it's resi- dence streets that they will be just as good as the down town streets, and it is time that he citizens awoke to the fact that the sooner these i'm provements are gotten under way the better it will be. One important fac tor in the improvement of the streets is that real estate values at once take an upward tendency. Prescott has plenty of room in which to expand, and to lead it to fill out along broad lines the thoroughfares must be improved to such an extent that the people will build residences to accommodate the many who are daily coming here.
 Another important factor that enters into the betterment of city is that houses should be built for rental at a moderate price. Generally speaking, it is not a difficult matter to rent a house at from thirty to thirty-nve dol lars a month but when it comes to finding a modern residence at a more moderate rental. they are scarce. In order to keep abreast of the times, our property owners and holders of real es- tate must build houses that will appeal to people of moderate means.
 Prescott can only grow when people who come here can find suitable resi- dences, There is scarcely day passes
 ut new people come to make their homes. As rule they cannot find a house that meets their requirements. Our builders have built not wisely but too well, in that the houses which they have constructed are entirely too large for ordinary families. Residences of five, six, and seven rooms are what are most in demand, and if such houses were constructed, there is ample reason to believe that they would be occupied at once.
 Let every person identified with the growth and progress of Prescott see that she keeps abreast of the times. The city just now is in a state of evo- lution. We are on the verge of phen- omenal growth. This growth can be checkmated by not keeping up i'm provements. We have noturaI resources that cannot be overlooked.

 The legal interests of the local peoI were represented in the transfer Attorney H. D. Ross, while E. M. M calf, Kansas City attorney was vi MT. Harroun.
 D. J. Thompson, mining engineer Breckenridge, Colorado, will repi sent the syndicate, and left yesterd| for the property to look over | ground and make his plans for begl ming development work. A force men will be placed at work within | next two weeks, and as there is plen of capital behind the venture, no ti1 will be lost in opening up the mine rapidly as possible.
 The property has fine showing copper ore, and it is believed by poets that it will develop into a | producer.

The Reports Are All In And Details About
 Completed
Whipple Soldiers Are To Give A New
 Drill

At eight o'clock last evening the ex- eeutive committee of the Fourth of July celebration met at the office of the county supervisors to complete the official program for the four days sports. All details were carefully discussed and arranged in a manner to make the program attractive and easily understood by visitors.
 Many of the features under prepara- tion were explained, including the dances and sports of the Indians, which are to be made drawing card. Secretary Robinson announced that there will be about 200 Indians in at- tendance, but that the number might reach 300, if they crowd in as is GUS tomary when they are asked to take part in any public exhibition. It was not decided where the camp will be located, but it is likely that the wis iting Red Men will be given the vac ant lot below the Brinkmeyer hotel, if enough space is available
 By request announcement was made of the sports to be given by the sold iers from Fort Whipple. Both the cav airy drill and the infantry sports will prove new to those who are not in close touch with these tactics. The cavalry drill especially will be a novel, ty to the average visitor and will in- clude the very latest exercises. The entire troop at Whipple will take part in the program, and set of twelve men and horses will give certain extra features in which both men and ami mals will make plain the careful train ing of Uncle Sam s soldiers. The in- fantry sports will likewise prove of interest as they include speed tests of various kinds. Tent pitching, gun drills. aecoutrement races, and sew eral other interesting tests are inelud- ed in the program.
 As now completed the program will furnish four days of excellent sport, Sunday as will be seen, being devoted to baseball and music. The Indian band, which will be at Iron Springs after July l, will in all pro- bability be secured to add to the at fractions during the celebration, but thus far the arrangements to get them here have not been completed. As cor rected and prepared so far as is pos sible, the following is the list of sports:
