annual exhibition of the Arizona PouI
try, Pigeon and Pet Stock association
will be held at Phoenix during the car
nival. This will be the largest exhibi
ton of the kind ever held in the terri
tory and all those interested in poultry
should not fail to attend.
PASSENGER TRAVEL. For a cou
pie of days the incoming passenger
trains were lightly loaded and it wa:
feared for minute that the effete cas-
had forgotten Phoenix and the coming
carnival. But there was a better
showing yesterday and doubts are
again given to the wind.
A QUIET BANQUET.-About twenty
Phoenix retail grocerymen gathered in
the private banquet rooms of the New
Place last night to talk over matters
of interest to their part of the COM
mercial world, enjoy each others Soc
liability and incidentally to spend a
couple of hours in eating and drinking
the good things they sell to others.
| LOChED ANOH-
The nickle-in-t he-slot bicycle stands
are being employed by the practical
| jokers to such an extent that their re-
mOval may have to be ordered. The
operation costs the Joker a nickel but
it furnished the victim a dollars
| worth of annoyance. The plan is to
pick up a wheel, lock it in the stand
and carry the key away. The owner
has no way of finding out who has the
key and walks home.
A TEN POUND GIRL. A ten pound
girl baby on Wednesday night came to
bless the home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. ].
Anderson. Mr.. Anderson is the porter
at the Wellington and remarked yes
| terday that while the young lady was
perhaps too recent to enter in the car
nival cake walk, the indications are
she will give her daddy sufficient
preliminary practice during the next
month to place him on an equal foot
ing with the most talented performer.
THE STEAM LAUNDRY.-The Ma
tional Steam Laundry muddle came up
in district court yesterday in an argu-
ment on a petition for an injunction to
restrain DR.. Wylie from continuing to
destinies of the laundry. J. w. Walker
and his associates desire TO be given
voice in the washing of the sheets and
shirt waists of the community The
subject was taken under advisement
until next Monday.
SUIT FOR DIVORCE-Suit for di-
vorce was begun in district court yes
terday by Andrew Kozik against Rosa
KOzik. The parties were married one
bright May day and separated one hos
day in July. Abandonment is alleged
in the complaint though Mr.. Kozik
some time ago made more serious al
legations and caused his wife to be
put in peril of her liberty by trial in
the territorial and United States court
on charges of adultery and violation OF
the Edmunds act.
CARNIVAL ENVELOPES.-For the
next month every mail train that
leaves this city will carry thousands OF
envelopes decorated by the picture of
a mounted cowboy throwing his RATA.
which encircles the words Phoenix
Indian and Cowboy Carnival" That is
the design adopted by the carnival
committee for the envelopes to be gen.
orally distributed and the striking
picture in colored inks cannot fail TO
attract the attention of thousands
from ocean to ocean.
FOUND, A GATE. There is hang
ing high on an electric light pole at the
corner of Adams street and Third av-
enue, a rather handsome picket gate,
painted a shade of green. Nobody
knows when it was put there or by
whom. 1t was evidently not the work
of the electric light company, for it
cannot be seen how it could serve any
useful purpose. Its appearance is con-
nected with the night of October 81.
Any one who has lost such a gate as
has been described may have it by go
ing after it and paying for this adver-
tisement at the rate of a dollar a line.
SAM DAVIDSON DEAD Word
was received in this city yesterday of
the death of Sam H. Davidson, late
city engineer of Phoenix. The infor-
nation came in a telegram to w. J.
Murphy from Rochester, n. Y. Where
he died is not known, but presumably
at West Hartford. Oneida county, n.
Y, since that was his postoffice ad-
dress. He came to Arizona a great
many years ago and was employed as
engineer at various times by the Ari-
IONA Canal company, by the county
and lastly by the city. He stood high
in his profession and was well liked
in this community. He resigned his
Office as city engineer last summer to
return east, and at that time was not
sure that he would not make his stay
permanent
