Among those present were, Mrs. c. C. Davis, Mrs. Bruner and daughter Myrtle, Mrs. Wedgworth and daughter Mrs. Newton and three daughters, Mrs. l. H. Parkman. Mrs. Stewart and Miss Ruth Hollenbeck The only men that were lucky enough to be around at the dinner hour were Henry Stewart and George Brown of the Wessex Telephone Co.

 MT. Hardy, employed by w A. Ev- ans, went up to Phoenix the past week and brought back one of Gosart's LOCO gallon tanks. MT. Evans expects to use it in connection with his wind mill for house and stock purposes.
 Among the business visitors to Phoe- nix this week were W. A. Evans and Nels Benson.
 Ellis Barker shot and killed a rat tlesnake in his own doorway recently about dusk. The snake was evidently looking for a nights lodging.
 A man who was not on to the ways of the land might have imagined on the night of the 18th that he had been carried in his sleep and dropped in the midst of Jap-Russian battle from the amount of bombarding that went on near the home of Martinez Garcia. Just at midnight they began their shooting and kept it up off and on all day the 16th, winding up their celebration with a dance at night.
 The Wessex Telephone Co. is grad ually extending it's lines. Geo. Brown put in new phone for the Stewart Bros, and is now at work building short spur from the Evans ranch to the canal Hume across the Hassayam- pa. The company expects to extend its lines shortly to MoOre's ranch on the Agua F'ria.

RETURN OF GOV. N. o. MURPHY
Switzerland His Choice of Foreign
 Countries.

The Washington Post thus mentions the return of former Governor and Mrs. N. O. Murphy from their Euro pean trip:
 When ex-Governor N. O. Murphy, of Arizona, walked. into the Arlington yesterday with his bride, fresh from a four months sojourn in Europe, there was a rush of friends to welcome him. as there always is when that big hearted and good humored westerner appears in Washington. In the years that he represented his territory in congress he became one of the best known and best liked of all the nation al solons. Governor Murphy said that he had enjoyed his trip abroad i'm mensely, and all agreed that he looks a decade younger than when he was last here.
 When ] went away last spring, said he, ''it was an open secret that many prominent republicans were sore with the president. Today, as I quick ly learned on landing in New York. they have all become modified, and ev- erybody is in line for this vigorous and remarkable man, and everybody whose judgment is worth a copper knows that he is already as good as elected. l found out that they knew him in Eu- rope. too, and that his name is men toned in every quarter of the old world with respect

NEW YORK SPEEDWAY
More Good Records Made by Arizona
 Horses.

Arizona has only a few horses so far that have tried to break into top notch society on the New York speedway, but it is a pleasure to note that they are all succeeding in their ambitions just as fast as time and opportunity will permit them to. The success of the Green string has already been men toned, but new history has since been made that will be read with interest by ArizOnians generally, whether they be horsemen or not Beside the Greene string, Juno T, developed and put on the track by w. N. Tiffany. of this city sold by him for nice sum ard now owned by Andrew Kane, gets favora- ble mention. The New York Telegram, speaking of the speedway events of Sept. r, says:

I want to make a second appeal to you.
l want to ask each of you, to make
yourself a committee of one, to do
something towards helping some insti-
tuition for the higher education of the
Negro in the South, and to give some
part of your earnings for the support
of some institution of this class in
the South. We want to show to the
American public that we will not al
low our schools for higher education
in the South to be closed because
Northern white men no longer con-
tribute to their maintenance. We have
reached the place where we must
maintain these schools or they fail
And my friends it would be a sad
reflection indeed, upon us, as a people
if, after forty years of freedom, we
allow such a grand old institution as
the Atlanta University to be crippled

it was decided to hold mammoth
