Both men claim that they are innocent of the charge. Their bonds pending the examination has been fixed at $1,000. "The Virginian" at the opera house tonight.

(Communicated. It is a broad statement, but none the less true, that Prescott is known to the world as a health resort, and stands pre-eminent among such ren devous by those seeking a betterment and final restoration of their physical forces. Its location has many advantages over other sections of the country when viewed from points that have their peculiar merits in the eyes of diversified invalids. Being situated at medium elevation and betweeu parallels in moderate-tempered zones. there is no place its superior and few of its standard in the character of weather assured.

For eight months, yes, ten months, of each year. Pres cott basks in the brightest of sun shine: and the while, during the heated term that prostrates all nature and the human race about us, we are ever refreshed and invigorated by the mountain breezes that temper old Sol's fervid rays. The question so often comes to us: Who are the in val ids? Where do they keep them selves? For a more rugged class of people is seldom seen anywhere Having attained this reputation, are the citizens going to be satisfied and allow it to form the apex of their ambition? Does the invalid only re quire pure air and bread? Do those in the perfection of health feel thaj their wants are appeased from the same sustenance? Without arguing the question, we say emphatically No! The soul in man aspires to greater emoluments, and seeks environ ments that are as lusty, tangible and necessary to the full enjoyment of life as are the food and condiments. The lives that come among us, sick, weary and exhausted are woefully dis appointed in our airy-staff menu. They require relishes; a something to please the eye and tickle the palate and electrify the senses, all at one and same time.

Soup without the savour of salt fits to the stomach about as harmoniously as a damp sock in a new shoe. There is a feeling that the disagreeableness must lie extricated as speedily as possible. Likewise a season without pungent attractions, in a town or city of hospitable repute. "There's nothing doing let's get out as quickly as possible," is already the complaint of the sojourner. There are devious for obviating any such contiu genciee.

The question arises how ever, will any of them find so much favor as to reach adoption. Depleted physical man, while re cuperating by the inhalation of ethereal ozone, requires means for diverting the mind from thoughts of self in so far as it is possible. Th sphere of his thought is circumscribed to self, and it therefore behooves hit physician and we all are his physi cians from a hospitable view point to prescribe absolute abandonment of the thought of self. He must relax the tension of mind, that his illness has enforced. In order to accomplish this task and launch the mind upon calmer seas, duties evolve upon the citizens of Prescott that are paramount.

People living outside our city limits, in the States, for instance, have pictured Prescott as near to a paradise as it is possible for any earthly habitation to resemble a heavenly vision. Their dreams would appear mockery were they to be transported to this home in the mountains while a snow or rain storm is in progress, with mud ankle deep and not a street crossing in sight. How sad the awakening would be. It is strange indeed that the city has been so preoccupied that this little unpleasantness has been allowed to not only mar the sight of the city but also to prejudice visitors against intended protracted sojourns in our midst and possibly to locate among us permanently. With asphal-tum walks surroundingg the plaza together with flag stone crossings squaring the intersetcions of till streets, Prescott could well boast of the beau-ty and cleanliness of her thorough fares.

This would be a potent means of diversion. The lighting of the business portion of the city is commendable and is all that could be asked. Yet we have wondered what councilmen would say were they obliged to pick their way home along some of the dark and vaguely lighted streets in different sections of the city. Plodding along over ungarded and unpaved streets, encountering objects and human beings pursuing a like uncertain task, it is little wonder that complaints are made manifest and execrations rise. More light andenlightenment ever have the mute faculty of dispersing careand of lifting man out and away from There is a formidable corporation doing business in our midst that doubtless contemplates giving at no remote period in the city's onward move, an innovation in its line, and that is a street railway service.

And while they are calculating upon this undertaking would it not be admirably to the point under consideration herein were they to select some accessible mountain sight, one clearly discernible from and overlooking the city, to be fashioned into a model outing park, at the same time, by a devious route, stretch the roadbed and rails thitherward? Let them even open a mountain villa tract and sell lots to defray a portion of the expenses of an attraction so worthy and one sure to benefit all pal i ie-concerned. Then this is a splendid field for the operations of a board of trade. By the co-operation of all the business men and interests of the city assisted by the adjuncts that make up the mining communities contiguous, the population and prestige of Prescott could lie doubled within a very few years. Manufacturing industries, by fair proposals from such men as comprise the business force of the commonwealth, could, no doubt, be induced to locate their plants or branches of their concerns here and when one of these arteries begins to throb, kindred industries will become tributaries and life pulsate all about us. Denver is to the state of Color ado, so is Prescott destined to Ik- to Arizona.

As all the min ing interests of Arizona are closelv allied with those immediately surrounding iit, it is an natural as it is the case, that Prescott should be the acknowledged headquarters for min ing news, mining men ami inve-tor. And when prospectors are once brought to realize the advisability of constructing smelters here for the ra duction of their ores, the day of I'n cott's genuine aggrandizement will have dawned. "here is so much of good in ston for the general welfare of the city when once the different propositions are inaugurated that there will be only the veriest proportion of time to be denoted to thoughts of self; and when these conditions shall have come upon us. verily, life will then have begun in earnest and the most prosperous era of our history will begin its dawning.
