THE THIRD ALARM. - When
Phoenix gives another carnival the
committee on decorations should pro-
vide asbestos bunting for those who
care to make a display. Last night
about 9 o'clock the third fire occurred
since the opening of festival week. and
all three of them We're caused by the
igniting of drapery bunting, from Chi
nese lanterns. Fortunately, last
nights fire, like the two preceding
ones, was eXtinguished before great
damage was done. The fire was on the
west end of the big arch over Center
street near the Commercial hotel. An
alarm was turned in and the depart
ment was on hand in a twinkling and
d good stream of water put out the
blaze before it reached the center of
the arch. This reminds one that that
particular arch has had a hard time of
it. In the first place its construction
was an after thought, then a runaway
team tipped it over, and lastly the
fire fiend assailed it.

\ MINERAL EXHIBIT.-During the
preliminary work Of the carnival an
effort was made to secure a display of
the mineral products of the territory.
Letters were sent to the various mine
owners, asking them to send speci-
mems. A number of the mine owners
expressed their regret at being unable
to comply with the request, while a
number of others stated that they
would take pleasure in attending to it.
It was the intention of the carnival as
sociation to place the minerals on ex-
hibit for the benefit of the visitors and
at the conclusion of the carnival turn
the mineral over to the board of trade
and thus aid in starting d permanent
exhibit. The Old Dominion Copper
company of Globe, ard the Unit

ped by freight a number of the
specimens taken from their mines. The
shipment was received yesterday and
was Immediately unpacked and placed
on exhibition at the room of the board
of trade, where it will be placed per-
manently. The specimens were plainly
marked, so that even the vsriest tyIo
in mineralogy may be able TO compre-
bend their character. The work of the
Old Dominion Copper company has not
been lost and, to the contrary effect,
it is highly appreciated by the carni-
val people.
