CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Annual Election of Officers Next
Monday Night.

A meeting of the Chamber of Com
MERGE is called for Monday evening
next at which time officers will be elect
ed for the ensuing year. During the
past year much has been done by this
board of business men in the way of ad-
vertising the resources of the valley.
1t is largely through this instrumental
ity that Phoenix has been advanced from
a town to a city with conveniences sec
ond to none of her size in the southwest.
Since the city has reached it's present
size the efficiency of the Chamber OF
Commerce will be much increased, but
it will require the hearty cooperation
of every business man in the city to
make the work complete success.
; The present fall trade of the city is
good and just now the eyes of the entire
country are turned this way making the
work of advertising easier and far more
etfectiye but, it does not follow that it
will continue so unless the same care,
pains and selfsacrifces are made in the
future as in the past for the advance
ment of the interests of the city.
For this purpose money is needed as

HALLOWEEN SOCIAL.
A Pleasant Event at Mrs. Alkire's
Residence.

A Pleasant Event at Mrs. Alkire's
Residence.
One OF the most unique parties ever
given in the city was that at the resi-
dence of Frank T. Alkire on Halloween
evening. The invitations issued are
interesting on account of the antiquity
of style and the emblem of recognition
was candle, the lighting of which was
shown by the three grandtathers,
Messrs. Diehl, Brown and Geo. Alkire.
Among those present were: Misses
Plank, Rich. Kendall. Randall, Mills,
Creighton, Richmond, Myers and Nc
Kinney, while the gentlemen were:
Shirley Christy, Geo. Christy, Geo.
Randall, Murphy, Swenarton, Conger,
Diehl, Brown and Mr.. and Mrs. Will
Lount.
The costumes were those of the great
grandfathers' day and many were rich,
though grotesque. Prominent among
the ladies' costumes we're Miss Ran
dial as Priscilla, Miss Kendall as Pru-
dence Pr1m, Miss Meyers as the Maiden
Aunt, and Miss Rich as the Queen of
Sheba. Shirley Christy wore a gor-
geous suit representing the Marquis de
Lafayette, while his brother, George,
shone brilliantly as Israel Putnam.
All represented something interesting,
recalling historical characters. Old
fashioned games were played until an
hour, too late to be called conventional,
and at the proper time a repast simi-
lar to those served by the ancients was
served. Frank 7. Alkire, the host,
represented Uncle Sam, while his good
wife was dressed. as plain old lady
that might be mistaken for a grand
mother. The happy party dispersed
with regrets that Halloween comes but
once year.

The Circus TODAY,

Today will be red letter day in
Phoenix and the color will be furnished
by Sells & Renfrew's circus, which, by
the way, is the only circus and mana
gerie which will visit the coast this
season. The show has received fatter-
ing press notices from all towns and
cities in which it has appeared and is
said to be the most complete aggrega-
ton that ever visited the West. 1t is
complete in both the arena and the
managerie and many new features in
both have been introduced.

well as concerted action but with the
same liberality characteristic of the
business men of the city the next
years work by this body will be far
more effective than ever before. All
business men should attend the election
of officers and if not subscriber to the
Uhamb Der of Commerce to Immediately
get in line. People are coming to Ari
IONA by the scores and the excellent
service of these business men deserve
much of the credit for it.

WORTH FIGHTING FOR.
A Claim Partially Overlapping the
Mammoth.


One of the best indications of the
future success of the Superstition camp
is the fact that those interested con-
slider the ground worth fighting over.
F. P. Trott. city engineer of Phoenix,
and county surveyor of Maficopa
county, has recently been to the camp
making a survey for Goodwin Bros, OF
Tempe. According to the lines run by
this distinguished authority the foater
laps on the Mammoth location taking
$50 feet off the south end of the claim.
There is dispute however and those
interested in the great mine claim that
it is located all right and prior to those
surrounding it as the Tom Thum, while
the term Mammoth is merely a local
name for the mine, but the Goodwin
boys think differently, as the only re-
corded claim there as far as they can
find is the Accidental.

OUR FORESTS.
Statistics Disprove the Rumors That The!
Are Disappearing.


Are Disappearing.
According to some facts and figures
presented by Henry Gannett in a
recent issue IN the New York Sun
there is to-day nearly if not quite as
great an area of woodland in the
United States as when the white man
set foot on our shore. There are
not so many square miles of mer-
charitable timber now as then, but
the territory occupied by growing trees
is about as extensive as it was four
hundred years ago, and these trees will
in time grow to size suitable for the
production of lumber. Some of Mr..
Gannett's statements are quite incon
sistent with the general belief that
American forests are giving out. He
says, for instance, that only about two
hundred and seventy thousand square
miles, or less than one-tenth the area
of the country, is artifcially cleared
land, while to offset this loss there has
in recent years been great extension
of wooded land in the prairie states as
well as in some of the natural tree
growing states A table is published
showing the total area and the wooded
area of each state, the fig ures having
been obtained from reports of the cen
sus and agricultural departments, from
official surveys and in few cases from
careful estimates. AS grand result
it is shown that the wooded area in the
United States, excluding Alaska, is
nearly one million one hundred and
thirteen thousand SQUARE miles.
The Best in the World.
!, Senator Henry G. Nelson, OF New
York, writes
son the 9th of February, 1888, I was
taken with a violent pain in the region
of the kidneys. suffered such agony
that could barely stand up. AS soon
as possible 1 applied two Allcock's
Porous Plasters, one over each kidney,
and laid down. In an hour, to my sur
prise and delight, the pain had van
lshed and | was we'll. | wore the
plasters for day or two as a precau-
ton, and then removed them. l have
been using Allcock's Porous Plasters in
my family for the last ten years, and
have always found them the quickest
and best remedy for colds, strains and
rheumatic affections. From my expert
ence believe they are the best plasters
in the world"

AN EXTRA SESSION
WILL BE CALLED BY MR.. CV,EvE-
LAND IN SEPTEMBER.
Inc PRESIDENT Gives His Reasons, and
Declares that the Financial Condi.
tiops Demand an Extra Session of
Congress.
BY Southern Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, D. c.. June 5.-The
President said this evening in reply
to direct question by represent
alive of the United Press that he in
tended to call an extra session of
Congress not earlier than the first
nor later than the fifteenth of Sep.
tember, unless unexpected contin-
gencies should necessitate an earlier
meeting. The President further
said:
while there has been no mystery
nor secrecy in regard to my inten-
tion in this matter, think it not
amiss that our people should be in
formed authoritatively that the time
is at hand when their Representa-
tlves IN Congress will be called up
on to deal with financial condition
which is the only menace to the
country's welfare and prosperity.
1t is well for the people to take up
the subject for themselves and ar
rive at their own conclusions as to
the merits of the financial policy
which obliges US to purchase idle
silver bullion with gold taken from
our reserve. One does not need
the eye of q fnancier to
see that this gold thus sub
tracted from government stock
is eagerly seized by other nations
for the purpose of strengthening g
their own credit at our expense.
at does not need the art Of states
manship to detect the danger that
awaits upon the continuance of this
operation. Already the timidity of
capital is painfully apparent and
none Of us can fail to see that the
fear and apprehension in monetary
circles will ultimately bring suffer
ing to every humble home in our
land.
Il think that between now and
the meeting of Congress much de-
pends upon the action of those en-
gagged in financial operations and
business enterprises. Our vast ma
tional resources and credit are
abundantly sufficient to justify them
in the utmost faith and confidence. If
instead of being frightened they are
conservative, and instead of gloomy
anticipating immediate disaster they
contribute their share of hope and
steadiness they will perform a pa.
triotic duty and at the same time
protect their own interest. The
things just now needed are GOODNESS
and calmness in financial circles and
study and reflection among oul
people"
