NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

When we entered into an arrange ment between ourselves as to the de- livery of ice we had no other end in view than to reduce the expense in cident upon a double set of delivery teams, resulting in lessening the price of ice to our customers, as well as an economic saving to ourselves. Our motives have been miscOnstrued and our actions misrepresented. We do not wish to be regarded by our patrons as conspirators, or as having entered into an arrangement in restraint of trade to the detriment of the rights of citizens with whom it is our interest to deal.
 Legal advisers have assured us that there has been no transgression of the statute in effect; we know there has been none in intention.
 Rather than further pursue our busi- ness with our customers fearing the existence of an arrangement between us unfair to them, we prefer that none longer continue
 Hence we publish the following notice:
 NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION.
 We hereby announce that the part nership heretofore existing between w. B. Lount and F. M. Avis, as the authorized representatives of the Peo- pies Ice & Fuel Company, in the de- livery of ice under the firm name of the City Ice Delivery Company, has been this day mutually dissolved.
 That F. M. Avis, the authorized rep resentative of the Peoples Ice -& Fuel Company, has sold all his interest and the interest of said Peoples Ice & Fuel Company in said City Ice Delivery Company to w. B. LOunt, who will con- tinue the business of said City Ice De- livery Company and pay all bills and collect all accounts due and owing said company.
 Dated this first day of August. 1906.

When the crowd had about reached their limit they started off to their homes on the north side of the river, where most of them arrived safely. but Dutchy tarried by the way side And just because he tarried too long, he got into rather serious trou- ble.

WHY HE DID NOT RESIGN.

Sir William Wightman held office in the old court of Queens Bench far be- wound the prescribed time. and at last. on the eve of the Hong vacation" he took a sort of farewell of his brother judges. However, when "the morrow of All Souls " came around he turned up smiling at Westminster hall. "Why, Brother Wightman," said Sir Alexan- der Cockburn, you told us that you intended to send in your resignation to the lord chancellor before the end of August 50 I did" said Sir William. 'but when l went home and told my wife she said: Why, William, what on earth do you think that we can do with you messing about the house all day" So you see, I was obliged to come down to court again.

A GREAT REVIVAL
 IN MINING INDUSTRY
Observations of an ArizOnian Who
 Recently Visited the East.

H. William Stevens. d prominent mining broker of Yavapai county. has just returned to his home at Prescott after an absence in the east of the greater part of the summer Part of this time MT. Stevens spent in a Pitts burg hospital, a very sick man. He has now fully recovered from his ilI- ness. Since making his tour of the east MT. Stevens is more enthusiastic than he ever was over the future of Arizona. The Journal Miner of yes terday prints the following interview with him:
 Arizona is considered the coming mining country by the large investors or the east. Opinions concerning the mineral resources of the territory and this country have certainly undergone a great change for the better within the past two years and from the ex- pressiOns that I heard during my visits to Chicago, Pittsburg and other places relative to the resources of this county in particular, l feel that we are only on the eve of a great revival in our min ing industry. It is safe to say that several large mining deals will be con summated within the coming year with people who have the means at their command to develop mines in a modern and business-like way
 As the guest of A C. Wottengel. I visited the exchange during my visit to Pittsburg and in answer to inquiries about the Big O'Brien, of which there are many stockholders in that city. stated that it was one of the greatest gold propositions in the territory; that there was to my knowledge over x2.- OO0,O0 worth of ore blocked out in sight and that the new mill on the property would be running within ninety days. Although this is a conservative state ment of facts concerning the property 1t was the cause of advancing the stock on the curb from g. to 40 cents a share. The members of the exchange and other mining investors congratulated me on the fact that a mining exchange was established in the city of Prescott. They believe that il is a move in the right direction; that it will be a great protection to the eastern investor in this county in the way of keeping stocks of properties of questionable merit from being forced upon the pub lie and many of them expressed their intention of assisting to list mining stocks of companies in which they are interested on our exchange"

l he had gone far, he realized his mistake and was quietly warned to depart in ! peace. This he was loath to do. and
 the owner, Griffin. again informed him that if he did not go and go at once. | there would be something doing" The
 Indian failed to take the hint and con- tinued his investigations, but they were shortlived, however, for just as things were quieting down again Griffin got his artillery into action and fired sev- eral shots into the air It took Dutchy about two seconds to realize what was happening and the moves he made to get away were really creditabIe to him. Toward the river he started on the dead run, loudly yelling at the top of his voice that he had been murdered. Into the river he threw himself and l just as he was about to emerge from the other side he was-received by of ficers Russell and Baily who had heard 1 his shouts from the distance. Still yelling and bowling he was taken into town where he was examined thor Oughly and found entirely unhurt. Only then did he stop his persistent yelling that he had been murdered He was locked up over night charged with drunkenness, and brought before Judge Evans the following morning where he pleaded guilty and was find ten dol lars
 Telephone reports from Fish Creek ! state that the very heavy rains which visited this section of the country on | Thursday afternoon last. practically amounted to a cloudburst at that place. The fall of water was terrific as much
 as an inch having been believed to have fallen in a little less than an hour. The whole canyon by evening was a roaring torrent and many of the
 new concrete structures along the road which have been recently put in by Thompson's crew, were said to be
 damaged. and considerable work will
 have to be done to put them in repair
 again. The long road down Fish Creek hill was reported to have been very
 seriously damaged, but was still passa- ble to light teams. Thursdays stage
 from Mesa was delayed several hours
 but it is expected that with the big
 bunch of men sent down from here on
 Friday morning that the road will

 of the season at Roosevelt, but little or
 no damage was done.

CLIMB SWISS MOUNTAINS BY
 ELEVATOR.

No longer need the Alpine tourist take his alpenstock in hand and la bOriously climb up the steep sides of the Swiss mountains, roped. for safe tvs sake, to a couple of guides says Frank C. Perkins in Technical World Magazine for September. So keen have the canny Swiss been to make everything as comfortable as possible for guests, that, in many places, cleo tric Or cog wheel roads run far up the tall peaks. leaving only a short climb to the topmost summits. And now. as a last refinement, the luxury-loving tourist dismounting from the car. may step directly into an electric elevator which shoots up the last four hundred feet to the bald head of the Burgen- stock. from which we may survey the wonderful panorama spread but be- meath him.
 Iron tie rods fasten the skeleton of the elevator frame firmly to the face of the mountain, and from its top a platform forty feet in length runs to the crest of the peak, from which a mar vicious view of the beautiful lake of Luzerne is to be had.
 The elevator car and counter weights are supported and guided by the walls of shaft cut in the side of the noun tam, Tor distance or one hundred and fifty feet from the base or lower plat form. and from that point up to the top by the structural iron tower. The car carries eight persons, and is con- structed of wood and covered with zinc plates. It is nicely upholstered. two seats being provided, each with space for four passengers. The ele vator car makes the trip in less than three minutes the normal speed being
