SMALL WEEKLY
 SAVINGS
Making Them Work and In-
 crease of Themselves.

We doubt if there is an adult em- not, with a little effort, save a dollar and a quarter every week without in- terfering with his or her comfort or happiness. Even this small amount, if set aside regularly as provided by the different plans of the Phoenix Build ing and Loan association. would be steadily and materially compromising itself and making a sturdy recourse for it's owner in time of trouble or in time of opportunity for investment, such as frequently occur to persons of re- sponsibility.
 Whether or not you feel that you care to save this amount weekly, as a matter of education and general inter- est at least you should know what can be done with small savings, and the folders issued by this association will help you pass a pleasant evening in their reading. You owe it to yourself to know what is going on in the fin ancial world, and a postal card ad- dressed to R. H. Greene, AZ North Gen. ter street, will bring you the literature, without any obligation or inconven . fence on your part. The development of Salt river valley and it's opportuni- ties are so near at hand that none of us can afford to be "sleepers" just now, and Knowledge is power" Nowadays it's the man with brains. rather than the man with brawn, who is building the solid foundation of future comfort and Independence. Write the postal.

cd for last night, except on the theory of a defective flue in the kitchen or frame part of the building. MT. and Mrs. Rau were out riding when the fire was discovered. They had had a fire a little while before, but as was their custom they looked before leaving the house, and satisfied themselves that it was out. The theory is that before that time the roof had caught from the flue and was then smolder- ing. though they did not know it. The neighbors saw the fire first and an alarm was raised by the firing of q revolver. Quite a crowd of people as- sembled and managed to remove most of the contents of the house before the fire reached them.
 A telephone alarm was sent to the fire station, but in view of the fact that it was outside the city limits. the ap paratus could not respond without q violation of the instructions. Fur thermore there were no nearby hy drants and the roads were so muddy

 THE RIVER-Though there was a little rise in the river yesterday, there was no damage reported to the Arizona head and it was stated last evening that a foot of water was going over the dam.
 LEAGUE MEETING POSTPONED The Epworth league business and social meeting of the M. E. church South, which was to have been ileld this evening at the home of MT. and Mrs. J. L. Irwin, POS South Seventh avenue. has been postponed one week from today, or to November 16.
 A MESSAGE OF BEREAVEMENT -J. A. Marshall received a telegram yesterday from his former home in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, announce ing the death of his father MT. An drew Marshall. MT. Marshall senior was the last survivor of a family of twelve ne being the seventh son. He was born in Pictou county, Nova Sco- tia, and lived there all his life. He was in his eighty-third year at the time of his death. Mir. Marshall was q man of large proportions and splendid physique, and up until the last year he never knew a sick day.
 co. B, N. G. A.-The local company of militia expects the attendance this evening of every man. An election Tor second lieutenant has been ordered, and will be held this evening. The two candidates for the office will both have squads out bringing in any mem Der negligent in reporting for drill. Other matters to come before the com pany are in regard to a competitive shoot for Thanksgiving day, the form ing of a foot ball team, and the taking up of active drill work for the winter. Several recruits have signified their intention of joining the company. but more are wanted to recruit up to it's full strength.
 THE GUADALUPE HANGING Several days ago The Republican printed a story of the reported execu- ton of two young men by hanging somewhere in the Guadalupe canyon below the San Bernardino ranch in Santa Cruz county. One of the young men supposed to have met his death was Frank Jones, who made his home in this city several years ago. His father. J. T. Jones, is a wagon maker. and at present has his shop in the same building with Jack Kersting, the  blacksmith. Yesterday Mir. Jones re- oeived a letter from his daughter, Mrs. M D. Hodges, who is now in Bisbee, but the mssive threw little, if any, light on the affair She wrote that young Jones, in company with a friend, had left for a months hunt in Mexico, and that the month would not be up until the 18th of November. After ne had been out about a week, man coming across the border by way of the canyon Guadalupe, brought the news that the two men were hang ed there several days before. He gave no particulars. A messenger was at once dispatched to the scene of the re- ported tragedy. and he has now re- turned with the report that ne could find no trace of the boys or of any hanging On this information the po- lice at Bisbee are inclined to doubt the truth of the first report. Mir. Jones several days ago offered a reward for the arrest of the murderers.
