millionaire came Mr. Morley dragged
him into the library and produced the
whisky and poured two tumblers and
emptied bis drink into a tail vase when
Nlr. Daw was not looking. Mr. Daw
took one sip and choked and emptied
his drink in the vase when Mr. Morley
was not looking Between them they
emptied two bottles in this fashion,
and both men were very drunk-that
is, to the outward eye. Then Mr.. Nor

Satisfying Rain.

The most chronic grumbler was
certainly more than satisfied with
the offerings of Jupiter Pluvius
last Friday evening, when in less
than hour the streets were run
ming with water. The rain was
accompanied by a violent electric
storm very disturbing to the
timid and nervous. 1t was a
magnificent rain, and though long
delayed is much appreciated by
the stockmen, as every water
hole and tank in this section will
be filled to overfowing. "Old
Jup" has been overlooking Win
slow this summer, and some of
the skeptics were beginning to
think he had lost our number,
but we are now reassurred that
all is we'll again.

Horses Killed By Lightning.

During the electric storm last
Friday evening lightning struck
and killed a team of horses be-
longing to Santiago Cooper, who
lives en- the south side. Mr..
Cooper is a man of very little
means, and this loss falls on him
heavily, as he depended on his
horses for a livelihood hauling
wood and doing other jobs of
teaming around town. Here is a
case, it seems to us, where a
subscription should be raised
among our good citizens to assist
Mr.. Cooper in replacing the team
lost.

Oriental Dances Tabooed.

County Attorney Jordan visit
ed the carnival grounds Wednes-
day evening, gave the oriental
the once or twice over" and
then notified the management
that the show would have to close
down as in his opinion, as an ex-
pert in such matters, the dane
ing movements violated certain
statutes made and provided by
the state to maintain a high stan
dard of morality. We think Mr..
Jordan is mistaken in his dag
nosis. These dancers were i'm
ported direct from the harum of
the Sultan of Yuibho, one of the
highly moral rulers of the Orient.
The trouble with Mr.. Jordan is
his lack of education along the
lines of the poetry of motion, one
of the modern day sciences. The
editors eye-sight is not as good
as it was thirty years ago, but
his eye for beauty and poetry of
motion is just as keen as ever,
SO in order to get good view of
the dancing girls he got a front
seat alongside of some other good
elders, and he is prepared to say
the girls all had on more clothes
than Mother Eve wore, even af-
ter the styles changed in the Gar
den of Eden, and fig leaves were
added to her wardrobe. And as
to the "pome" of motion the
girls acted as if they had a flea
on their back out of reach, and
at the same time were suffering
from an acute case of cholera
morbus. Who wouldn't wiggle
under like circumstances. The
action of the county attorney has
destroyed all the pleasure of the
week for the editor, and driven
him to drinking lemonade and
gambling at the camp of 40.
Thus has he fallen from grace.

Society News.

Mrs. Geo. Rickle gave a very
delightful affair Saturday in
honor of her mother, Mrs. Pool
er, who is leaving about the mid
die of the month for her home
in Flagstaff after two months
visit with her daughter here.
The afternoon was spent socially
and in fancy work, after which
a dainty luncheon was served to
the assembled guests.
A delightful affair was the
bridge whist party given at the
home of Mrs. Jas. Claffey Tues
day afternoon complimentary to
Mrs. Schluetter and Mrs. Wilson

Strike Goes to Arbitration.

The threatened strike of the
railroad employees has passed the
critical stage for a time at least,
when the representatives of the
four brotherhoods in session at
New York Wednesday agreed to
submit their cause of grievances
to the United States Board of
Mediation, and hearings on the
respective sides will begin at
once. This news of an amicable
arrangement to settle dispute
that threatened the whole coun-
try will be joyfully received by
the public, as we'll as by all the
contending forces, and there is
every reason to believe a fair and
equitable decision will be reach
ed by the arbitrators acceptable
to both sides. The spirit of un-
rest that has been prevailing for
several weeks among the en-
ployes will now subside, and they
will take brighter view of life.

How the Mighty are Fallen.

One of our local merchants
wanted picture of one w. J..
Bryan a few days ago to put in
his display window where he was
showing a line of grape juice, but
not one could he find in town,
and the display had to stand on
its own merits. Has the once

From Far-off Alaska.

From the Fairbanks (Alaska)
Daily Times we take the follow
ing concerning a former Winlow-
ite, who left here last fall to
make a trip to Alaska, which
will be interesting to her many
friends:
DIR. L. Won Zasch, dentist
from Winslow, Arizona, reached
Fairbanks on the stage from the
coast yesterday. DR.. Won Zasch
required four weeks to make the
trip across the trail. She reach
ed Cordova, where she went to
visit her sister, on Christmas
day. Hardly had she arrived at
the coast town when DR.. Hale,
the well-known Cordova dentist.
was called Outside and DR.. Won
Zasch took his office, which she
managed until his return. She
also made trips to Katalla and
other places on the coast, where
she engaged in dental work, and
incidentally saw the country.
DR.. Won Zasch is an enthusias-
tic booster. Although she choose
about the worse time of the year
to travel on the trail, she states
that she enjoyed her trip i'm
mensely. Wherever her work
demanded it, DR.. Won Zasch spent
several days, her last stop be-
fore reaching Fairbanks being
at Richardson, where she tarried
three days.
All along the route her work
and storms managed to make her
progress slow, but as she enjoy
ed every minutes of the trip she
feels amply repaid for her ex-
perience 'roughing it'' on the
trail.
She has nothing but words of
praise for the drivers of the
stages on which she travelled.
Although the trail is in aw-
full condition, she suffered no in
convenience, thanks to the cour-
teous and kindly treatment af-
forded her by the stage drivers,
whom she declares are the finest
men in the world.
On the boat Saturday night,
DR.. Won Zasch will be a passen-
ger for the lower river. She is
going to Hot Springs and from
there to Woodchopper, where
she will engage in dentistry. AS
long as business warrants it, the
dentist will stay there, but if it
gets slack, she will return to
Fairbanks, although she has not
decided whether or not to locate
here.
DR.. Won Zasch is very much in
terested in Alaska. She said
last evening that she honestly
expected to pick up gold in the
streets. In fact, coming along
the trail she saw some mica in a
ditch alongside of the road. She
kept her secret for while, but
finally, woman-like, she decided
to tell. So she asked Con Jun
kin, the driver, what that was.
On being informed that it was
mica and was not worth looking
at she insisted that one of the
passengers get out and prove to
her that it was not gold. Salts
fed, she continued her journey
in peace.
This is DR.. Won Zasch's first
visit to Alaska. Her many friends
will wonder that she has not
frozen to death, but she states
that she actually felt the cold
more in Winslow than she has in
Alaska.

The price will drop when the
combine agree to drop and not
before.
The carnival week now on Is
giving our people an excellent
chance to get acquainted with

The "Follies" A Winner.

E. is winning financial laurels
as a successful manager of a car
nival. The feature of thei" sue
cess lies in the fact that they are
putting on every number Of the
advertised program, and adding
others that were not mentioned.
A light rain Monday, which look
ed ominous for time, only add
ed to pleasure Of the day, as it
settled the dust and cooled the
atmosphere.
The real opening of the carni-
val was Monday evening, and
1000'paid admission were record
ed at the gate. Every attraction
was installed and a complete pro-
gram, from the four handsome
diving girls to the Camp of '49,
was offered the people. The
opening day for the field sports
was Wednesday afternoon, which
started with band concert, fol-
lowed by. the ladies' auto
mobile parade to the race track.
The first prize for the best de-
corated automobile was award
ed to the Ladies of the Maccabees,
which was a beautiful creation
in white. The car was driven
by Mrs. Way, with four other
ladies as her passengers, gowned
elaborately in white, which made
a beautiful setting to the picture.
The second prize was awarded to
the w. C. II. U. car, which was
prettily decorated, but not so
elaborate as the former.
At the race track every num-
Der of the afternoons perform
ance was presented except the
ball game between Winslow and
Flagstaff, which was cancelled
because Of the failure of the Flag
staff team to put in an appear
ance. The roping contest and
the broncho busting were the
real attractive features, as sew
eral Of the contestants. were pro-
fessionals from Prescott, where
they had just closed a weeks en-
gagement. This feature will be
a part of the program every
afternoon for the balance of the
week.
Yesterday was the first day of
the automobile races, and so
many cars have entered that it
will be necessary to put on part
every afternoon to give all con-
testants a chance for the big
money. Yesterday was republi-
can day, and the special feature
of the afternoon was an address
by Hon. j. H. Kibbey, himself
an Elk, but at the present time
candidate for United States
senator.
At this writing, with only two
more days of the carnival yet to
run, not an accident nor an un-
pleasant scene has occurred to
mar the pleasure of the meeting.
The town is full of strangers
from all the surrounding towns,
and the local people are always
out in force; the carnival spirit is
rampant, but the merry jostling
Of the crowed is done with a
Chesterfeldian air that only adds
zest to the occasion. At the
camp of '49, with millions of
dollars of Elk money in sight,
it is hard work for man to get
near enough to get into one of
the games owing to the crowd
of ladies, that gives the occasion
the appearance of a bargain sale.
At one time the committee in
charge of the games had about
decided to remove Pete Pember-
ton as an operator, because he
let a bunch of ladies get away
with 75c of Elk money to the
good. He promised not to let it
occur again, and he is still in
