The recital promises to eclipse any thing in the line of a musical event that has ever been given in this city, and the performance deserves a crowded house Mir. and Mrs. Wylie will make but three public appearances in the territory"
 The Phoenix Republican says:
 There is probably no one in the territory today whose aspirations for the grand opera stage are laid on such sure foundations as Mrs. Wylie's She has returned from her course at the Boston conservative with the trained voice of an opera singer. While it would be pre-. sumptious for one to compare her with the opera stars of today, it is the opinion of one who has known several of them in the period of their obscurity, that Mrs. Wylie, if she continues in the course laid out, will rank eventually with the best of them"

RANGE AND MARKET NEWS
Items of Interest Pertaining to the Live Stock Industry in Arizona Mar
 ket for the Past Week.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Feb 10. Beef cattle failed to hold the ad- vance secured early last week, and closed no better than steady for the week, but western cows and butch CT grades made a net gain of 10 to 25 cents.
 Account of storms all week de- mand for stockers and feeders was slack, and prices on same closed a shade lower for the week. Run of cattle today is $500 head, market strong to 10 higher. The West is in the grip of another storm, and prospects indicate light runs and strong markets later in the week.
 Colorado and Idaho Stockers have sold lately at S4.65 to $5.25, and best range stockers at 4.75 to 500, medium grade beef steers from $500 to $5.50. The first train of the Lockhart steers were on the market here today. These steers are standard production, of about the same weight and quality from year to year, and furnish an interesting line on the market. The dehorned steers in today s shipment weighed 1881 pounds and sold at $5.90. the horned steers av- eraged l5l4 pounds. and brought the same price. $5.90. The first shipment a year ago was made about a week later in February than this year, and sold at S5.25. Top fed cows bring S5.25. top heif- CTS S5. .75, bulk of she stuff $3.7 to 5.25, bulls $3.00 to $4.S5, calves $3.50 to $6.50
 Sheep and lambs gained steadily last week, supply S5,000 for the week. Lambs have been coming more freely than yearlings or sheep, and are therefore the weak est spot in the market. Run is 5000 head today, sheep and yearl- ings steady, lambs 10 to l5 lower.
 The Gates lambs from Monte Vista topped the market today at $7.35, other lambs at $7 DO to S7 .35, light yearlings $7.10. heavy yearl- ings at S6.l0. wethers $500 to $5.60, ewes S4.35 to $500.

RAMONA ROLLINS WILLIE
Again Before the Public---Said to Have
 Grand Opera Aspirations.

Ralph Wylie and bride (nee Miss Ramona Rollins) made their first joint debut at the Elk's theater in Prescott "Wednesday night. Liter ature advertising the event showed a beautiful picture of Mrs. Wylie in Indian costume which was photo graphed a few months ago by Joseph B. Warner, the Denver millionaire, whom she tilted to marry Ralph Wylie, the violinist.
 The society editor of the Prescott Journal Miner in making prelim- mary announcement of the event had the following:
 Ramona Rollins received her musical training at the Boston Con servatory of Music, and that she is gifted with extraordinary vocal tai ent will be attested by all who heard her when she appeared in Prescott last March in the role of Buttrecup in the opera 'Pinaofre. which was presented here by Phoe- nix talent.
 "She is petite in figure, has soft, langurous eyes and possesses just that dainty. winsome personality which would charm a big, husky. athletic individual like Ralph Wylie.
 What would you have done if you had been Ramona Rollins? Would you have accepted Jos. Warner and luxury and ease, or would you have taken Ralph Wylie and love and possibly fame?
 "The only way for you to judge is to go to the Elks Theater We'd nesday night and see the lovers sing and play. The songbirds of the forest sing sweetest in the spring time when love rules the world, and buy the same token, this loving human pair should bring forth rhapsodies of the voice and the vio- lin, when they make their debut in Prescott next Wednesday night. While this is Mrs. Wylie's profes- sional debut. yet Mir. WyIie is not new to the stage. having appeared in many of the leading cities of the United States. The press com ments in praise of his work show unquestionablv that he is the most gifted maestro of the violin that as ever appeared before Pres colt audience. All lovers of music

The Russian Joke Teller.


Story telling and testing have al.
ways been counted the favorite amuse-
ments Of semibarbaric people. TO the
first we owe the Arabian Nights"
and to the second the clowns, who
were formerly the appendage OF all
great houses, In Russia the paid
joker still noprishes. and the people
pay so much an hour to listen to his
Jokes and witticisms. He provides
himself with two or three hundred
tickets, and, mounting sort of rOs-
trun, he announces that be IL going
10 regale his audience with choice It'd
bits Of mirth provoking lore. He be-
gins selling tickets at a penny each,
and when he has sold enough to war
rant his beginning he turns himself
loose, and the audience remains spell
bound by his humorous stories for an
hour or two. Al recent traveller who
saw number of these jokers In st.
Petersburg says. II listened to them
several times. and. although could
not understand one word the joker
said, / was sure from the way the aa-'
dience greeted his stories with roars
of laughter that the jokes were above
the average"

TON NAME WHO HAD TO CARE
FOR THE CANARY AND GOLD
FISH, MUST GO BEFORE JUDGE
POLLOCK.

Henry Henry, the 15-year-old lad
with the double action, repeating name
who last Sunday was arrested on the
charge of drunkenness, yesterday ap-
peared before Judge Martin Ryan In
the police court, by whom he was sent
up to Judge Pollock in the district
court. The youthful defendant was
accompanied by his father. who seeks
a second chance for his son. 1t will
be remembered that Henry Henry Sc
cured several continuances OF the court
on the ground that gold fish and can
aries at home needed his attention,
there being no other person to give
them care. The court held that the
live stock should not be allowed to
suffer under any circumstances and
trusting in the integrity of the lad,
allowed him to return home. The court
did not, however feel justified In dis
missing the case, and at 2 o'clock this
afternoon held the lad to answer to the
higher tribunal.

Yesterday afternoon DIR. Durham,
veterinarian, made the official state
ment that the horse belonging to the
N. ]. Olsen Co.. died from internal
henorrahage and not from coming in
contact with an alleged live wire on
Fourth street near the crossing of the
Northern Pacific.
Thursday night horse. without a
driver, was seen travelling on Fourth
street by Fl. L. Babst and others. The
animal was stopped, but as he was be-
ing led away to be tied up fell down
dead. AS the wagon was drawn past
o pole, q wheel caught the latter and
from other circumstances 1t was
thought yesterday that live wire had
hit the horse and that 1t died from the
shock. AS the dead horse was being
moved away by Manager Simmons and
assistants shocks were felt through a
chain which was used. Superinten-
dent Warner OF the electric light de-
partment OF the city. and others made
an investigation Of the supposed live
wire and they concluded that there
was not enough current In it to kill
a mouse. The Olsen Co.'s manager Ia
satisfied with the report of the veteri-
marian.
