NEW DREDGING PROJECT.
Second Payment Made on Lynx Creek
 Placer Property.

Saturday the second payment was made on the well known Averill placer mining ground at Mayors, says the Prescott Journal Miner. Through this transaction and the recent ruling of the United States land office at Phoe- nix the beginning of another dredging enterprise is practically assured.
 The land sold in this deal covers 100 acres, and is located within the town limits of Mayer. Linked to the Averill ground the locations owned by Mir and Mrs. Joe Mayer and Mrs. Lizzie Moe are included in the sale. Negotiations for the transfer were conducted by NJ l.. Buckley of the Spec Mining com pany, operating a dredge on Lynx creek
 Associated in this new enterprise are A. B. Ritze and John P Frisse of Evansville, Indiana, who arrived in Prescott yesterday moring. They will visit Mayer in a few days to make an inspection of the ground with a view to placing a dredging machine in oper- ation.
 In the combined possessions of the new company a mile and half of ground is owned along Big Bug creek, from which in years gone by thousands of dollars were washed out in various modes of placer mining.
 From the source of Big Bug to where it empties into the Agua Fria this creek was more extensively and profit ably mined in the early days than any other stream of this county. and the most notable nugget in value ever taken out of any placer deposit in Ari- zona was one to the value of over S750. picked out of the soil near Boggs' ranch by a Mexican in 1890. This nugget is still in the possession of the Bank of Arizona in this city.

 "Oh-I've got his address in my Pocketbook," said the Prince; Ines my godfather He was one of the references gave your father"
 So the next nigh the Prince brought horse to the garden and he and the Princess mounted and rode and rode and rode and in the gray dawn they came to Won derwood and in the very middle of that the Magcians Palace stands
 The Princess did not like to call on perfect stranger very early in the morning they decided to wait little and look about them.
 The castle was very beautiful. decorated with ventional design of bells and beropes carved in white stone.

 He went away, and the next moment they felt the bell swing the air. It swung round till once was over the well and then 1t went down-down.

vas She wore veil so did everyone else in the Palace, and sine never allowed to look in the glass except Sundays that she had no idea hat she not pretty all the week as she was on the first day of it. She grew up therefore quite contened. But the parents in despair.
 Because" said King Henry, tits high time she was married We ought to choose King to rule the realm
 T always looked forward to her marrying at twenty one-and to retiring on a modest competence to some nice little place n the country where we could have few pigs"
 And a cow" said the Queen, wping her eyes.
 And a pony and trap" said the King.
 Yes and hens,'' said the Queen " And now it can never, be. Look at the child! just ask youl Look at herl"
 Nc" said the King firmly, Il haven't done that since she was ten except on Sundays"
 Couldn't we get q Prince to agree to Sundays only marriage-not let him her during the week ??
 Such an unusual arrangement" said the King would involve very awkward explanations and can't think of any except the true ones which would be quite impossible to give. You see, should want q first class Prince And really high-toned highness would take wife those terms''
 It's thoroughly comfortable kingdom said the Queen doubtfuly the young would be hand somely provided for for life"
 ''I couldn't marry Belinda to trneservcr place worshper," said the King definitely.
 Meanwhile the Princess had taken the matter into her own hands. She had fallen n love.
 You know, ofcourse that handsome booki sent out every year to all the kings who have daughters to marry 1t rather like the illustrated catalogues of the big de- partment stores. only instead of illustrations showing furniture ladies coaks and dresses the pictures all ot Princes who are of age to be married and are oo6ng out for suitable wives. The book is called the Royal Match Catalogue, Illustrated and besides the pictures of the Prince has little printed bits about tAer incomes accomplishm ents, prospects, temPers and relations.
 Now the Princess saw this book-which is never snown to Princesses but only to their parentsit careessly left lying on the round table in the pror She looked all through it. and she hated each Prince than the before till she came to the end and on the last page of all screwed away in corner where many might overlook 1t, was the picture of a Prince who was quite as good-ooking Prince need be.

 And the Princess, of course, said. "Yes, please"
 So the wedding day was fixed for the first Sunday in June.
 But when the Prince arrived with all his glorious following of courtiers and with two pink peacocks and crown-case full of diamonds for his bride he absolutely refused to be married Sunday. Nor would he give any reason for his refusal. And then the King lost his temper and broke of the match, and the Prince went away.
 But he did not go very far. That night he bribed a page-boy to show him which was the Princess's room and he climbed up by the jasmine through the dark rose-scented night, and tapped at the window.

House Names in Holland.

In few of the affairs of life does
the Englishman display such lack of
originality as in the choice of name
for his house. Often enough it would
seem that he does not choose at all,
but meekly accepts whatever designa-
ton an unimaginative builder cares to
place above the door. In Holland
they do this thing much better. A re-
cent traveller in the land of bikes and
windmills has been at pains to make
notes of the names bestowed by the
Dutch merchants upon their country
houses. Here are a few examples,
translated: Our Contentment," Joy
and Peace" Leisure and Happiness"
my Desire Is Satisfied" Friends and
Quiet" "My Wife and l." mot so
Bad" To say the least, any one if
these would seem to indicate more
of the genuine sentiment of the house
holder than can possibly be expressed
by the Belle Vues" and "Cedars" of
Suburbia- Westminster Gazette.

How They Kiss In France.

The French kiss, unlike its counter
part in the United States and Eng
land, is implanted on the cheeks in
stead of the mouth. Children greet
or bid good-by to parents, husbands to
wives and fiances to fiancees by kiss
ing first one cheek and then the other.
Frenchmen apparently go on the
principle that if it is well to kiss at
all it is well to kiss in public, for the
sight of couples embracing each other
or walking with arms about each 9TH
er in the streets in broad daylight is
so common as to attract no attention.
This is true of thoroughly respectable
folk and, particularly of the working
classes, who pay little regard to the
conventionalities. And, when it comes
to kissing, everybody follows the
scriptural injunction and turns the
left cheek Also"
