 The sale of cocaine. which IS largeiy used by the lower classes of humanity in this city, had recently reached an enormous figure and many cases of pit- fable degradation were brought to the of the drug. The traffic went to such an extreme that an ordinance introduo. ed some months ago In the Councft no 'aS question as to it's need. In the past the traffic had yielded a handsome reve- nue to tho. dealers. and as soon as the ordinance became effective, there was q past, however, a great deal of the stun has been sold. and the claim Is made that most of it came from certain not caught. The ordinance makes 1t q serious offense for anyone to sell the stun unless the purchaser carries 0 sician. and the amount is limited, rho fines may be as high as $500 with i'm" prisonment of sixty days attached.

 The powerful a-going dredge Caucus. built by the United States Gov ernment for work on the local bar, IS expected here on Wednesday of this week. Captain Frank Dunn, one of the local pilots, Is in command and his ar rival here will be the signal of some honor being given him. The entire selected from, the local steamboatmSn; left New York for this. her future, home port.
 The Caucus, named after shoals of the same name off Pensacola bar. is one of the most powerful of dredges: Her construction for use almost exclusively at Pensacola and nearby ports. was au- thorized by Congress some three years ago through the strenuous efforts of Senator Mallory. It was conceded that by far a more satisfactory arrangement than to have work needed from time to time on private contract, and portion of an appropriation for harbor work here made some time since was diverted to the dredges construction. This place, therefore. will receive most of the benefit of the boat.

ARIZONA FAIR ASSOCIATION
Meeting Preliminary to Incorporation
 and Purchase of Grounds.

The Arizona Fair association is born and named, all except recording the proceedings in the county and terri torial records, and preliminaries for that official record are under way. The gentlemen who subscribed somewhere in the neighborhoOd of $25,000 a short time ago to stock in this project held an enthusiastic meeting last night at the Hotel Adams. There was a large representation of the subscribers pres ent. J. c. Adams being made chairman and Selim Nicholson secretary.
 One of the first things done was the appointment of a committee of five for the preparation of articles of incorpo- ration and bylaws. The members O. the committee are Walter Bennett, w. F. Nichols Isaac T. Stoddard, l.. M Hoghe and c. E. De Mund. A rough draft of the articles proposed was pre- sented by MT. Bennett and read by sections, passed upon and all points concerning which there was a differ ence Of opinion were settled by dis cussion. At the conclusion the com mittee was instructed to prepare Q new copy for filing and present it for final ratification at the next meeting. The bylaws, of course, can be looked after at any time.
 It was later decided that the next meeting should be held at the Hotel Adams one week from Thursday night, at which time the articles will be ap- proved, and the stockholders will pro-

count of it's great height and ventila- tion on all sides. it would not be as cool as the park theater, and he does not deem it advisable for the comfort of the patrons. It is well known that the park is tho coolest and most com fortable place to spend an evening in Phoenix. The company at the park this summer will be vastly superior to last season and will present plays which are new to theater goers and which are only produced by the stock companies in large cities, as the royalty is too high for the ordinary repertoire com pany. The plays will range from so- ciety dramas to farce comedy, and ev- cry detail will be carefully rehearsed. and especial attention will be paid to costuming. Miss Ethel Tucker will be the leading lady; the entire company are stars of a minor constellation and unusually clever. They are all pro fessionals who have been on the stage for many years. The cast is not com posed of amateurs who work for noth- ing or. at most, on fourth salary, for the sake of experience. No more even ly balanced company ever held the boards at a local theatcr.
 Many improvements have been made al the park this season and every thing will be run strictly frst-class. Nothing objectionable will be permit ted either in the theater or the park grounds, and the management will ca ter especially to ladies and children.
 One of the pleasant features will oe the introduction of a soda fountain. MT. Sanichas, the high class caterer, arranged some months ago to serve ice cream sEerbets and other cold delica- cies. The prices will be the same as usual and patrons may have refresh ments brought to them between the acts, or, if preferred, may give their order from the tables which will be conveniently placed in the park and at sides of the theater. This should be appreciated, not only because it is Q new departure. but also because one may have frst-class service with no advance in prices.
 There will be plenty of cars running before and after the show, the street railway company having improved the track added to their rolling stock anG thoroughly overhauled their power plant. No more trouble will be found in getting to or from the park. The

ADJUSTMENTS
OPENING OF THE PARK SEASON


 Eastlake park will open on or before June 1st with a first-class stock com pany in a repetition of high class plays.
 The park is again under the man agement of MT. Charles F. Berger. MT. Berger assures every one, as he did last season, that they will not be dis appointed in the entertainment provid- ed for them this summer.
 For many years Phoenix has been afflicted with rank summer shows. Ap- parently anything was considered good enough for the summer audience.
 There was a noticeable change for the better last season when MT. Berger took charge of the park, and the inn provement this year will be still great CT. MT. Berger has been requested by many who desire to remain in Phoenix during the summer months, to run d stock company in the Doris opera house. While the Doris opera house would be comparatively cool on ac-

DANCE TONIGHT AT THE HARD
 WICK

Last night the Noble company at the Hardwick presnted ''The Way of the World a play full of comedy and rich in interest that appeals to the heart.
 Tonight they present what is said to be the master comedy of their en- tire repertoire, that of Reuben Glue" This play is owned and controlled by the Noble Bros, and this is its first presentation to a Phoenix audience. The comedy is of a kind and style that is seldom seen, and is without doubt the funniest ever written.
 In addition to the ladies free tonight there will be a dance given immediate ly after the performance, which is free to those attending the play.
 Remember, one lady free with each reserved seat ticket purchased before ?. m. at Goodman's.
 Remember the great sensational comedy, Reuben Glue" tonight.
