OUTLOOK FOR Y.W.C.A
 VERY ENCOURAGING
Matter Will Be Brought To the Attention of the Board
 of Trade,

At the next meeting of the Bisbee Board Of Trade a communication from Dr. kathryn Myers to President Geo. Buxton of the organization will be brought to the attention Cf> the body, and the members asked to assist in raising the amount needed to obtain a local branch of the Young Women's Christian Association, the gift of Miss Grace Dodge offered some time ago.
 When the matter of founding a branch of the Young Women's Chris tian Association in Bisbee was first broached few months ago, the mat ter was brought to the attention of Miss Grace Dodge, president of the national organization. Because of the fact that sne. as well as the ether members of the Dodge family, have enormous holdings in the district, Miss Dodge took A particular interest, and at once offered to donate S40,000 to- wards a fund for the construction of 9 club house, if s10,000 could be raised in the city.
 Dr. Kathryn Myers, whc was then in Los Angeles, was asked to come to the district by Miss Dodge and note conditions here relative to the estab- Ol lllt OiSdLlLdlAOu- Sis Myers has been here flor several months, and has worked enthusiasti- ly for the success of the project, which will afford to the young ladies Of the district many advantages which they do not now enjoy.
 Public support has been readily given, and at present there are ten teams organized among the young ladies, each one having task of rais- ing the sum of s1 900 towards the gen eral sfund. They are meeting with fiattering success, so that there is lit tie doubt that Bisbee will have not only another fine building, but an CT: ganization that will be a great in fiuence for good. The offer of Miss Dodge, who is intimately associated with Miss Helen Gould in many such works, is only one of numerous donations she has made throughout the United States.

CHINESE RAISE BIG
 DIN 1T PRESCOTT
Celebrate Their New Years With Strange, Weird and
 JnearthIy Noises.
Prescott Journal-AIiner.)

The Chinatown of Prescott is all agog over the celebration Of the de parture of the old and the advent of the new Chinese year. The new year 46e5, Chinese reckoning, came in at midnight, last night. The descend ants of Confucius pay homage to the departing year as well as the ap- rroaching year, as they hold that. as the fate of man hangs on the smile or froHn of a departing ancestor. so also it is with the passing year, and that they should be smiling as they go.
 The celebration will continue over a period Of a week or ten days, and during that time there will be little business transacted among the Chin ese on Granite street Tbe joss house will be gaily decorated and illuminat- ed with numerous Chinese lanterns at night Visitors will be welcome, and will be served with bird nest soup. sharks fins, fish maws, chop saey. Chinese candies and many other con coctions strange to the American taste. The period of celebration Is almost entirely devoted to social pleasures. The children of the Cain |
 ese. who. during other periods of the
 year are kept pretty close at home,
 wfI be allowed full freedom to stroll the streets, dressed in their best, and 70 join in the noisy demonstration,
 noise being an essential feature Of the Chinese New Year. even as it is
 so essential part of the American Fourth of July. Firecrackers, big and little, will be exploded in greF quan titles, and to the din will be added the noise of ciashing cymbals. the beat l ing of pigskin drums, and harsh
 strains from untuned nageolets and shriiI flutes, only a son Of the FlowerS
 Kingdom being able to recognize in all this din any semblance to music. Not the least of the New Year cere | monies will be the worship of theii
 throneless king, Confucius. Witf

R. W. CURTIS TALKS
 ABOUT CONDITIONS
Says That He Looks for Rapid Improvement of Business
 From Now On.

R. w. Curtis, the general freight and passenger agent of the Texas & Pacific railroad, arrived in Bisbee this morn ing, accompanied by Mrs. Curtis, and registered at the Copper Queen Mir. Curtis has not been in Bisbee for year and remarked that the great im- proyements which have been accom- plished since his last visit would sug- gest anything else but hard times or lack of industrial progress. He thinks that Bisbee certainly has nothing to complain of in the way of growth.
 T can hardly realize that such rapid strides could be made here. Your streets have been paved, on Main street buildings have been erected and others renovated which gives to your city a decided prosperous leck and gives out the impression thatStte poo pie of Bisbee have lost none If tteir progressive spirit while other sec ticns of the country have been haiting to grieve over the hard times, which, to my mind are largely imaginary.
 Tn Fl Paso the financial furry caused the banks to resort to the clearing house certificates, as was the custom throughout the country, but that is now a thing of the past The banks are doing business in the usual way and the business men are no longer lacking in confidence for the future. During the month of Decem- Der and in January our Iine, so far as the western division was concerned, did about as much business as during these two months a year ago.
 "I understand. that many of the a- sr.fr cfar h of Fl Paso are increasing their opera tions after having curtailed production and forces employed for three months. The trade from Mexico is a very large factor in the prosperity of Fl Paso, as it is here in Bisbee and Douglas.
 Your section of Arizona I under stand was extremely fortunate in not suffering the curtailment of the min ' ing industry that seemed to be so gen. eral over the mining states and the fact that you are now practically at | the normal condition should be mat ter for congratulation from every i business man in your city.
 T have been travelling through Ari' zona more or less since 1894. The growth of the territory since then has been marvellous and especially is this true of Bisbee. Douglas and the whole ! of Ccchise county. I know of no other section of the country that has made the advancement during the last sia years that this southern part of Co chise county has. The city of El Pasc has received great benefit from thii marvellous growth and l assure you that our people are always glad to set and learn of your prosperity"
 Mir. and Mrs. Curtis will return tS Douglas tomorrow morning and remain
 there for one day before going home

 During the past few weeks the lo- cal Chinese have been more diligent than-sy in securing as many Amer ican dollars as possible, with which to pay off all their obligations. as they hold it a disgrace to have the New Year find them indebted to any one. In the days before they became ~Christianized, by the Americans, Chinese in debt on New Years day would repair to the home of his cred itor, and, on his doorstep, commit suicide.

A STARTLING Statement
New York Medical Authorities Claim
Dyspepsia Causes Consumption

The post mortem statistics of the
big New York hospitals show that
some cases of consumption are due 10
unchecked dyspepsia. especially when
the victim was predisposed to tuber-
culosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
praln, the weakened, irritable stomach
Is unable to digest food the body. docs
not receive the required nourishment.
constipation ensues and the victim
becomes thin. weak and haggard. AS
a result, the body becomes fertile
field for the germs Of disease to lodge
and flourish
Their afore. the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered is
guilty Of contributing toward the de-
velopment Of one of the most insdious
and fatal diseases known to mankind.
Dyspepsia is durable if properly
treated. John Coughlin sells remedy
which they positively guarantee will
cure Indigestion or dyspepsia or they
will pay for all the medicine used
during the trial. This remedy is IN
absolutely new medical discovery and
has been named Rexal Dyspep sia
Tablets. Certainly no offer could be
more fair. and the offer of john
Coughlin is proof positive that Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets are a dependa BILE
and infallible remedy Inasmuch as
the medicine will cost you nothing if
it does not benefit you we urge YOU
who are suffering with indigestion 81
dyspepsia to try this remedy. A
twenty five cent box of Rexal Dyspep-
STA Tablets contains enough medicine
for fifteen days treatment. Remem-
Der Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are only
sold in Augusta by John COughlin.
