The recital given by Miss Margaret

cess. It was attended hv a lam
audience and Miss Speed excelled
herself both in her selections as well
as in the manner of her recitals. The
Prescott orchestra played two num
bers, Miss Munyan sang two solos,
Miss Bailey rendered a piano solo.
and A. B. Mader rendered a violin
solo, making a very attractive and in
teresting programme.
Elsewhere will be found the an
nouncement of C. A. Peters for the
office of city treasurer of Prescott, to
fill the unexpired term occasioned bv
Herb Pentland's death. Mr. Peters
needs no further recommendation to
the citizens of Prescott than that of
his past record. For years he has
been connected with the Bank of
Arizona, one of the soundest and
best financial institutions in Arizona,
and during all that period has filled
his post of duty to the entire satis
faction of not only the bank but to
the man- patrons of that institution
with whom he has chme in contact.
The good work goes on. Another
reminder of the past is being re
moved. Another eyesore is being
razed lo the earth to clear the path
lor the onward march of progress in
Prescott. This morning the work of
tearing away the old dilapidated
frame building on South Cortez
street, formerly used by George Ruff
ner for his livery stable, was begnn,
and the way old boards and shingles
were flying through the air showed
that they mean business. As soon as
the ground eave been cleared up the
work of erecting two nice little one
story rooms will begin. W. W. Wood,
the contractor has taken a lease on
the lots from W. C. Bashford and
will erect the store rooms. The
rooms will be 25 by 66 feet each with
a large warehouse in the rear. Pres
cott has grown to such an extent that
to get in "around the plaza" is a
thing of the past, and business is fast
branching out in all directions, but
more especially on Cortez street,
which ere long will be a handsome
business thoroughfare.
A fire alarm was sounded a little
after midnight this morning for a
fire in East Prescott and the fire de
partment draci?ed a hose cart and
hook and ladder truck up the hill to
the scene of the incipient blaze. It
proved to be a wood pile on fire in
the alley in the rear of T. W. Otis.
The fire originated from putting hot I
ashes in a box sitting alongside the j
wood pile and if there had been a
wind blowing at the time it might
have proved very disastrous. This is
the third fire reported during the
past week from this cause, each of
them occurring at night.
During the whole period of the ex-1
istence of the Boston Ideal Opera j
company and the Andrews Opera
company, they have never carried so
evenly a balanced company nor pre
sented as attractive a repertoire of i
opera as they are doing this season.
Always aiming to give the best pessi
ble in that line and always succeed-!
ing to a remarkable degree, it is the i
universal verdict of the press of the
cities where they have appeared this
season, that the company is stronger
in every respect that ever before.
This is the highest compliment that
could be paid them. The cast, taken
all the way through, is without a
weak spot, the chorus is made up of
extremely pretty girls, with good
voices. The costumes are all new
and handsome, the orchestra fine, and
the performance moves with a snap
and precision that is refreshing.
They appear at the Dake opera house
Monday and Tuesday. Jan. 20 and

She is perplexed about conditions of
which she cannot speak to any other.
She thinks of the family physician. But
her delicate nature shrinks from the
questions she might be called upon to
answer. And so without counsel or help
she drifts along while every day time
tightens the fetters of disease.
Young women instinctively know that
certain conditions are abnormal. They
know that heads and backs were not
made to ache. But they do not know
where to turn for relief.
ANY MOTHER WOULD SAY
what almost every mother knows, that
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the
best medicine for the cure of womanly
ills. It not only cures headache and
backache but it cures the womanly ills
which cause these pains.
"I am so mnch better since I com
menced taking your ' Favorite Prescrip
tion,' writes Miss Jessie Simmons, of
Thurston, Frederick Co., Md. "I am
very- much improved in health, and feel
as though I bad a new lease of life. It
was just what I needed. Am more than
thankful to you for the kindly interest
you have taken, and hope that others
will find the same benefit from your valu
able books and medicines that I have."
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
not offered as a cure-all. It is a woman's
medicine, and it accomplishes perfectly
the cure of womanly diseases. It estab
lishes regularity. It dries unhealthy and
offensive drains. It heals inflammation
and ulceration and cures female weak
ness. It is a purely vegetable prep
aration, containing no alcohol, neither
opium, cocaine nor any other narcotic,
and cannot disagree with the most
delicate constitution.

Prescott came near having what
might have been a serious fire Thurs
day night. Miss Towles, the dress
maker, had taken up some ashes in a
pan and set the pan down near the
wood shed at the rear of her dress
making parlors on Cortez street. The
high wind which prevailed that night
fanned the fire into a flame and this
flame was blown against the wood
shed causing the boards to ignite and
in a minute or two flames were leap
ing several feet high. Mr. Morris,
the grocery clerk for T. WT. Otis was
on his way home and happened to
see the fire and gave the alarm. In a
few moments enough water had been
thrown on the flames to extinguished
them, thus saving several frame
houses in that vicinity, but in five
minutes more the fire would probably
have been under such headway as to
have caused considerable loss. This
should serve to warn people against
carelesssness in handling ashes which
have coals in them, as this is the sec
ond incipient fire this week from the
samecause.
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Dillon returned
home lost evening from an extended
visit to Mr. Dillon's old home in
Canada and also through the eastern
cities of the United States. Mr. Dil
lon left here in response to a call to
his mother's sick bed, but she soon
recovered after he arrrived there, but
he was called upon to mourn the
loss of his father, who died while he
was there. His father had been suf
fering from heart troubles for many
years but was not considered to be
in any danger, and was, at the time
of his death, which took place Dec.
26, in his usual health. He but not
rested well during the night and did
not complain of any pain, and when
asked what he wished for breakfast,
said he would take a warm toddy.
This was brought him and after
drinking it he laid back on the lounge
and went to sleep the sleep that
knows no waking. He passed away
like a child falling to sleep in its
mother's arms, without a pain or
struggle and was cold in death before
anyone knew it. He was 74 years of
age.
