Journal : Miner Assists In Bringing Cheer
 Into a Home
Mother and Four Little Children Are Given
 Assistance
(From Tuesday's Daily.)

Largely through the efforts of the Journal-Miner in calling the atten tion of the public to the matter, it was possible for a woman and four little children, left destitute by a worthless husband and father, to enjoy Christmas.
 A quantity of provisions and $l1 were left at the parsonage of the Con- gregational church for the family on Sunday and Monday. Some clothing was also donateI, but more is yet need ed. The case is very pathetic one, and call at the home would convince anyone that the family is deserving of any assistance that could be given them. Well-known Prescott women have taken an interest in the case, since the conditions which exist at the home we're related in the Journal-Miner, and | number of them have solicited aid Or the family.
 The woman said last night that she mas sufficient provilions to supply them for a short time, but that they are badly in need of clothing, especially underwear.
 The woman and her four little ones have been sleeping in one bed in order to keep warm. They have suffered greatly from exposure.
 The mother is employed du ing the day, and the children are compelled to remain at home alone. A twelv e-year- old girl keeps house for the family.

LARGE INCREASE IN RECEIPTS OF
 THE POST OFFICE.
(From Sundays Daily.)


 The past week was busy one at the Prescott post office and if the receipts can be taken as an index the city has enjoyed boom in the past year.
 Postmaster Smith, when seen by 8 Journal-Miner reporter, said that the Christmas business of the office had been unusually large. There had been an increase of 200 in the number of registered letters and packages sent out. Both the incoming and outgo. ing business has been heavy.
 The clerks have been working over time, and every effort has been made by the postmaster to expedite busi- ness. The city carriers have had their share of the work to do, and they have been heavily burdened with Christmas packages.
 In the past three years there has been a remarkable increase in the business of the local office. The government reports show that few offices in this section of the country have done as well.
 Postmaster Smith has reason to feel encouraged at the work of the office, and the records speak well for the citly.

Noted Navajo Indian Succumbs To
 Pneumonia.

Chief Vicente of the Navajos, one of the most picturesque and well known chiefs of that tribe, is dead.
 Pneumonia was the cause of the chiefs passing. He was about sixty years of age, of great stature and a splendid type of Indian manhood. Vi. cente, who was what is known as a sectional chief of the Navajos, lived about forty miles north of Gallup, and was unusually wealthy as Indians go, through the profits of raising sheep. While he did not speak a word of English, he was an Indian of great penetration, intellect and modern ideas, and one of the brightest men in the tribe. He was of a peaceful disposition and of high 'repute among the Navajos.

The Humboldt Commercial com pany, of which J. D.

They have nearly completed a substantial and handsome merchandise house and in a short time will transfer from the upper town to the new site near the railroad depot. The building is 24xs0 feet, built of wood, with brick foundation, and has a basement of 24x40 feet. They have also erected two comfortable cottages for rooming purposes, each having a capacity of eight large rooms. Later it is the intention of this com pany to erect additional buildings for various purposes.

 On the outside, or among the men who own piece of mining ground, whether it is in a stage of develop ment, or whether an ore dump is ready to be shipped, or in short where there is any product available, large or small in amount, there is universal feeling among them to see this enterprise un- der headway, as it signalizes the be ginning of an era that has been patient ly awaited for many years, and back of the success of which is the dawn ing of a day that will stimulate mines to work and give the owners of them chance to profit thereby.
