CITIES MUST ENTERTAIN

Nowadays 1t behooves every progress sive city of the calibre of Prescott to have at least one big celebration or festival of some sort yearly, at which the city s friends and those patronizing its business houses may be entertained. Such things benefit town greatly and generally pay for themselves on the single days on which they are given.
 One of the newer forms of municipal celebrations is the Homecoming festi- val. These are usually carried out un- der the auspices of a business men S league or committee of citizens and where they have been tried, have been glorious successes.
 The Homecoming festival is designed for the benefit of former residents and usually covers week, during which period the visitors can renew friend ships and exchange "reminiscences, and the enthusiasm it provokes among those living at distance from their native town is astonishing. Many of these people hesitate to return for a visit as the population changes until few of their close friends remain. The work of publicity is usually turned over to the newspapers who solicit the ad- dresses of all former residents and mail them papers containing the notice of the event and the prospective home conner will usually answer with let ter which of course is published and falls into the hands of one of his friends who writes another, and in time interest reaches a white heat.
 Prescott always has large crowds at her celebrations and an event like this one will draw big crowd from abroad as we'll as the usual crowd. Let's or ganize that business men league and set the date about year hence.

Beautiful Eyes.

The almost universal habit of turn ing the head in whichever direction you look deprives the eye of the exer- else to which it is entitled. The law of vision is such that, when your eyes are set straight to the front you can see in almost every direction, except behind your head. Every now and then you see woman with eyes that seem to roll in their sockets, taking in everything without suggestion of head movement. Those are the eyes that drive men to distraction. OK eyes Honest eyes. Usually brown eyes Open eyes. Altogether different from the small ferret eyes of the de- tective, which pretend to be looking at the ground. yet see sidewise out of both sllts.

Eminent Authorities on Tobacco.
tha n formerly
(Bv the Local Union)

Smoking tobacco and the use of tobacco in every form is a hab- it better not acquired, and when acquired is better abandoned. It gives a doubtful pleasure with a certain penalty"
 pr. Richardson, England
 In my now heightened medical lige 1 have often seen the worst and most distressing and fatal cases of stomach and liver dis eases traceable to snuff and to- bacco."
 pr. Conquest:
 The Dean of Carlisle says; 'Evi- dences arises every day which convince me more and more that the prevalent use of tobacco is distroying the physical stamina of our country, stripping youth of it's bloom and beauty, and manhood of it's vivility. with re tiex influence on morals which is truly deplorable. "
 "Tobacco is a poisoner, stu petier and traitor to the ner- vous system, and consequently to energy and the spirit of enter prise, which 1 renounced once and forever before reached my twentieth year"

ABOUT TO BEGIN
Both Sides Have Used Up
Their Peremptory ChaI-
Ienges.

San Francisco, May 13.-AIl the per-
emptory challenges of both sides were
exhausted today IN the Ruef trial and
now only the excusing of talesmen by
the judge can prevent the filling of the
lone seat i'm the jury box by the first
man called.
Attorney ACh for the defense used
his last peremptory on. Martin Heating,
a retired grocer, who was passed for
cause at the last session of court Then
Attorney Hiram johnson. for the pros
ecution, used his last peremptory on
Joseph H. Flynn, who seemed too anx-
ious to serve to please Johnson. Flynn
admitted that although he is now clerk
to q, bOOkbinder, he was once police
man and was dismissed from the force.
Johnson challenged him for cause, and
Ach denied it and was supported by
Judge Dunno. So johnson was forced
to make use of the last remaining per-
emptory challenge to get rid of the I'M
desirable juror.
After Heating had been excused.
James Hagan. an undertaken. was
called and passed satisfactorily to both
sides and was sworn in. This left one
place again to be filed, and when
Flynn was set free the court took an
adjournment.
