commissioners on Tuesday of last
week arranging for calling railroad
bond elections in Elwood and
Aetna townships. The official no.

The company which is building
The Kiowa, Hardtner g. Pacific
railroad, from Kiowa to Hard,ner,
has determined to extend the road
west to Colorado provided it can
get sufficient aid from the territory
through which it proposes to build.
The citizens of southern Barber
have long been working against
great odds for a railroad and we
are glad to know that their 1abors
are at last bearing fruit.
Each of these two townships is
asked to vote 10000 in exchange
for like amount of the capital
stock of the company. There is
every indication that the aid will
be extended. So far as we have
heard, the voters of both townships
are nearly unanimous for it.
The election in Elwood town

A citizen asks The Index to en-
ter a protest against the habit Of
the street sprinkler man in throw
ing water on the street crossings
while sprinkling. Before the rain
last week the crossings were kept
muddy by the sprinkler, and this
was the csse during most of the
summer. The sprinkler should be
"shut off" at the crossings and it
would be we'll for the street COM
missioner or marshal to see that
this is done when sprinkling is re-
newed.

One of the most successful social gatherings in recent years was that of the annual ball last night of the I. o. O. r. of this city, at which over 100 couples danced the evening away. It was a signal success in every respect and the fraternal order giving it was accorded many high compliments for the pleasure that was evident to all who participated. The music which was furnished by Mrs. Smiths orchestra, was excellent and every number on the program was accorded an encore. The event was under the capable management of Messrs. H. K. Suder, c. F.

JOURNAL MINER CONTEST
 CREATING GREAT INTEREST
CFrom Saturdays Daily,

Christmas will soon be with us and thoughts of Yuletide and what to have for dinner on that gladsome day will soon be holding the atten- tion of every housewife throughout the land. No better evidence that such is the fact could be offered than the ready response from the ladies of Prescott and Yavapai eoun- ty to the Journal Miners offer of prizes for the best Christmas dinner menu submitted by December 15. Every mail brings fresh evidence of the interest being taken in this con test.
 Unlike so many prize contests, this offer carries no obligations with it. There are no subscriptions to get, no votes to cast, nothing to be done but to submit a menu for Christmas dinner suitable for the average fam fly. Of course, it is to be expected that the foodstuffs selected for the dinner be such as can be obtained in Prescott at this season; because you know this contest is strictly for the ladies of Prescott and Yavapai eoun- ty, and naturally a menu must be provided that can be prepared here.
 The prizes are worthy of the ex- penditure of a great deal more effort than is necessary to win them. The first prize is a fine set of breakfast dishes GA pieees), the second prize $5 in cash, and two other prizes, s and $2 respectively.
 Read the conditions regarding the manner of submitting a menu pub lished elsewhere in the paper, and then get to work, because the contest closes within the next five days.

 AFFINITY" CASE
Wealthy Austrian Causes Arrest Of Wife and Man, Said to Have
 Eloped With Her.
(From Saturdays Daily)

Another sensational case in which violation of a United States statute is alleged. has come to the surface at Jerome, where Teka Ostoich and Peter KnivOkovich were arrested for alleged violation of the Edmunds act. The prisoners were brought to this city to answer to the charge before the federal grand jury.
 The case is one of much pathOs according to officers information. The husband, it is said, pleaded in vain with his wife to return home, saying all would be forgiven and forgot ten.
 Ostoich was living happily with his wife at Raton, N. NJ, until about two weeks ago. He went home in the evening after a days work at a mine, and was surprised to learn that his wife had fled. It is alleged she went with Knivokovich. The hus- band began a diligent search, and after a few days learned that they had left over the Santa Fe. They were located in Jerome.
 Taking the next train after learn ing that the pair had reached the Copper City, he went direct to that place. He pleaded with the erring wife to return to Raton with him. After persisting for two days he was emphatieally informed by his wife, it is said, that it was useless for him to endeavor to change her mind.
 The husband then went to the of

His personaI knowledge of the wants of the cour- ty in transportation lines and his practical method of caring for them is his best endorsement for the of flee rendered him. For the presen, he will make his headquarters in the office of Assessor Campbell, where he has secured desk room. He is preparing to enter the duties pune tually on the date set, and is famil- iarizing himself with the outside at all points where he will be called to superintend the difficult duty of keeping the roads open and in good condition.
