 AN APPROACHING WEDDINo-| On Wednesday night at Prescott George Cotton, manager of the curio department of Rabbit Bros store at Flagstaff. will be married to Miss Helen Adams, a resident of Prescott Miss Adams is very well known in Phoenix and at Tempe, having attended the Normal in the latter place several years ago and often visited in Phoenix. The young couple will make Prescott their home.
 THE Y. M. c. A.-The Y. M. c. A. meetings are increasing in interest as the weather grows warmer, which is very encouraging indeed. L. J. Rice led the meeting Sunday, the subject being What God has Done for Us" He said that it is a good thing for us to take account of the many blessings we receive, physical, mental and spir- itual; then we will realize our respon- sibility and will try to do all the good we can in this life. We should think of what God has done for us as a na- ton. This is the most favored nation, spiritually and physically, on earth. MT. Rice induced many young men to take part in the exercises. which is very commendable. Four young men sang a quartet. They are too modest to have their names mentioned yet. F.. H. Corson in a neat little speech brought greetings from the Y. M. c. 4. of Little Rock Ark, where they have recently erected a $45, 900 Y. M. C. A. building. MT. Corson thinks the same good success will be attained in the efforts to get a building here in Phoenix. J. M. Creighton will lead the meeting next Sunday and increase the interest by blackboard illustrations. The subject will be "The Harvest and the Laborers." Some special music is promised. MT. Mccormick. the pianist, expects to organize a Y NJ. C. A. or chestra and two or three male quar- tetts, which will add greatly to the interest of the meetings.
 ARIZoNA's QUARTERBACK has
 
 climate and the substance of it all is that Arizona has almost every sort of climate a person might ask for. It l isn't all in one place, but nowhere else in the world can one secure such a va riety of climate in so small an area. The summer climate of the territory is supposed to be almost unbearably hot but that is because only the hot places have been advertised. On the Fourth
 of July for instance, it was rather tor rid in Phoenix, Yuma and Tucson. It was probably quite warm also in Bis bee and some other Arizona towns but as an illustration of the great diver sity of temperature available within few miles the reader is asked to pcrsue the following from the Paradise Rec ord, published in COchise county, not great distance from Bisbee. Snow on the Fourth of July is something of rarity. The few persons who re mained at the Chiricahua lumber camp
 on that day, however, were furnished that kind of a celebration free of charge. Snow fell for several hours at | the mill, which is six miles from Par adise. The precipitation here in town was in the form of a drizzling rain though the air was very cool. Several Paradise people who had never seen snow on Independence day declared mill just to have seen the unusual sight, had they known of it's occur renee in time.
