The liking for boots to match the
great effort is being made in some
quarters to give them an established
vogue.
The lace coat has come to stay and
of 1t soon it has a dozen forms and is
one of the most serviceable and versa
tile as web as fashionable garments of
the day.
Hats with strings, either scarfs or
lace or tulle, or tiny bands with bows
at the sides, are far more picturesque
on a brides attendants than any other
modes can possibly be, and are always
greatly admired.
Black, white and pale blue combna-
tons are numerous, and there are, too,
some particularly pleasing effects in
brown and white, a color scheme that
pleased Parisians last summer and has
been used more or less this winter.
slippers in every case must match
the gown and one can expect to see
pretty pink slippers, blue ones In the
latest shade of dull blue, butter-color-
ed yellow slippers and green ones, with
pretty rosettes to match all of these
hues.
The new variety of line in the coats
of the newest street costumes is one
of the most interesting features of the
season, and so far It is rot humanity
possible to tell what particular style
will capture the fancy of the fastidi-
Gus few who speak the ultimate YER
dict on the modes.
1t is to be noted that very small
roses serve to form pretty designs quite
as effectively as galloons- and are In
softness, prettiness and originality a
new and fetching way to trim the skirt

The OId-Fashioned Wife.
A pretty young married woman said
to friend the other day, MARY is
such an old-fashioned wife She has
such queer notions about her duty to
her husband and home. Why, she de
clines all invitations unless he is in
cluded, and never under any circum-
stances is away from home when he
returns at night.
Then she always gets up TO break
fast with him. and even goes so far as
TO prepare certain favorite dishes for
him instead of leaving such business to
the cook. She does not go away in the
summer until he is able to go, too. and
in fact she fuses over him In the most
absurd fashion"
After the pretty creature had van
ished to join party Of friends at din
ner, reflective mood stole over the
friend, and she thought how much bet.
ter 1t would be If there were more old
fashioned wives.
Husband Who Takes No Notice.
Much is said about the faults and
failings of the average wife, but
careful silence is often preserved con
corning the trying ways of the lords
of creation.
Having wooed and won ''the dearest
girl In the world" man oftentimes
thinks that nothing more is expected
of him. and before the honeymoon is
well over all the little courting- time
attentions and kindnesses are neglect
ed.
Nothing used to please him better
than TO take her out for a walk and
to see her prettily dressed But now
all that is changed. He comes home,
takes bis tea. reads his newspaper and
rarely says word.

Penick defeated Copeland, Fickas de- feated Marton, Ayre defeated Eishel- man and Ainsworth defeated Miller The only event in the third round was the defeat of Fickas by Penick who thus qualified for the finals. The other events of the third round will be played Saturday afternoon.
 Just the first round of the mixed doubles was completed. Miss Ullman and MT. Miller defeated Miss Rich mOnd and MT. Adams; Miss Stroud and Roy Street defeated Mrs R. w. Craig and MT. Perkins; Miss Hubbard and Mir. Ayre defeated Miss Frazier and MT. Marston and Miss Ruth Aims worth and Arthur Ainsworth drew a bye. This event will be terminated Sat urday afternoon.
 The ladies' singles had progressed when the play was called for the day, to point where Miss Ruth Ainsworth had qualified for the finals. Her posi- tion was won by defeating Miss Stroud in the second round, Miss Ullman and Miss Margaret Clark defaulting. In the first round Miss Frazier drew a bye and Miss Hubbard of Tempe defeated Miss Richmond. Saturday morning Miss Hubbard will play Miss Frazier and the winner of that event will con- test with Miss Ruth Ainsworth for the ladies championship.
 There was a light wind in the lat ter part of the afternoon which in a measure disturbed the play, but the weather generally speaking could not have been better.
 This is the first open tournament of tennis played in Phoenix but from the interest shown in the event and the attendance the playing attracted it will not likely be the last one. The prizes have for several days been on exhibi- tion at Cooks.

"REMINISCENCES OF
 A FIRE FIGHTER
Called up by the Parade of the De-
 pertinent Yesterday.

| Those who saw the firemen's parade yesterday might have noticed a man l trailing behind. He is a member of the department and not one of the young
 ones. Not because he happened to be 1 behind, was he the slowcst member
 for he once held the record for speed
 made by himself and eight other mem
 bers of the department. They ran 100 yards dragging 90O-pound hose cart | in IA 2-5 seconds.
 This member is James l.. Cant, the only charter member of the depart ment in the parade and it's second chief In the making of that famous record which still stands unbroken he was the leader of the near" side. That was a position which required run ming and in which he had little assist ance.
 He also enjoys the distinction of holding the first hose in Phoenix in which steam was used for the pump ing of water. That was in the summer of 1886 at the time the block on the south side of Washington street be- tween the Anderson building and the Goldman corner burned. Everything combustible within the area went that time and the Goldman building was saved by the bringing of a temporary fire engine into play.
 It was an ordinary movable engine of light horse power used by Edgar and Yarnell in pumping out stale wells. By the time the fire reached the Gold man corner the means of the fire fighters were exhausted. The hose was quickly attached to the old steam engine and the water was pumped from a well which stood in the Gold man corrall, a little northeast of the present site of the Hoffman saloon.
 Phoenix has advanced marvelously within the past twenty years, but when one recalls that crude and an- cient apparatus and compares it with the glittering and up to date apparat- Us in the parade yesterday he could easily believe that ia no direction had moved proportionately faster than ,n that of fire fighting efficiency.

BANKS TO CLOSE THREE DAYS

Primary Election Day Legal Holiday
Following Labor Day and Sunday
It has been discovered that section
% Of the primary election laws, says:
Every day on which Septembe
primary shall be held shall be legal
holiday"
Kenosha will consequently have
three days ofrest in succession, some
thing the banks and other institu-
tons which close on such days have
seldom seen. Sept. 2 is Sunday and
Sept 3 is Labor day.
Politicians already are seeing IN
this sure Indication of light vote,
as many will retire for rustication to
the country on Sunday and remain
until it is time to work on Sept. S.
The primary law says all provisions
applying to state primaries shall be
applicable to city primaries.

M ANY MORE PENSIONS
Service Pension Bill Would Add
Thousands Of Names to
the Pension Roll
BILL MAY NOT BECOME A LAW

IF the Service pension bill, which
will come up for action at the next
session Of congress, becomes law it
will add at least. 5000 names to the
rolls at the Milwaukee sagency," said
Pension Agent.E. d. Coe at Milwau-
kee Friday.
Local members of the Gs A. r. and
old soldiers everywhere are said to be
watching the fate of the Service
pension bill with interest, all of them
hopeful, if somewhat doubtful, Of its
eventual passage by congress. Most
of those who are watching the bill,
however, are doubtful of its final
passage because SO many bills Of
similar nature have either been killed
in the committee room or have been
pigeon-holed without ever being
brought up for final action. The
present bill has had a somewhat SINH
lar experience, as it has been called
up at three different sessions Of con-
gress, and each time has been again
referred to some committee for a
report.
In few words, the bill provides
that soldiers of the civil war shall be
granted pensions commensurate with
the period Of their service IN the
army. The uniform scale of pay shall
be at monthly rate Of I cent per day
for each day Of service, whether dis.
ability resulted from such service or
not. This, it is though, will give the
man who served in the army three or
four years without being wounded or
otherwise incapacitated, some COM
pensafion for his services, something
he cannot get under the present laws.
Disability claims, under the provis-
ions Of the new law, would come up
for special treatment, the grade of
pay being ranged according to the
disability sustained.
II Several instances have come under
thel personal observation of Agent
Coe of old soldiers who served three
or more years of the civil war who
are now drawing but So or SO per
month from the government. Some
of these cases are spersons who, per-
haps, do not need the financial assist
ance, but on the other hand many Of
them do need it, and need it badly.
The new law would result in nearly
doubling the monthly Fstipend from
the government as these men would
then be entitled to monthly rate of
4 cent for each day they we're in the
service.

URGES GREAT CARE
Secretary of State Sends Letter
to County Clerk in Regard
to Coming Primaries
TOO MANY KNOT HOLES in LAW

County Clerk W. C. Crosby has re-
ceived the following notice from
Secretary of State w. L. Houser,
which should be given close attention
by officials:
State of Wisconsin, Department of

There are six parties, namely Demo.
Graf, National Republican, Prohibi-
ton, Republican, Social Democrat
and Non Partisan. For each Of these
parties returns are to be made. The
blanks themselves will guide the max.

to the proper officials. Special at
tention is called to the fling marks
on the blanks, and to the fact that
the inspectors statements, instead of
being sent to the county clerk, aud
to the town, city or village clerk are
to be delivered to the county clerk
and to the county Chairman OF the
party concerned; also, that the county

BAND STAND TO COME DOWN
City Council Decides to Improye Eiche1-
man Park With Shade Trees

The city council met in adjourned
session at the city hall Monday eve
ming, but there was little business of
importance before the meeting. The
council decided to at once begin the
work of improving Eichelmarf park,
and to this end the old band stand
which has been nuisance in the
park for several years will be torn
down and taken to the city dump.
Added to this an effort is being made
to fill up the park and the dirt taken
from the streets will be dumped
there. The committee on public
grounds was empowered to buy a
hundred shade trees to be planted in
the park.
The council took up the sand ques-
ton and decided to sell sand to the
teamsters at the rate of Is cents a
load. Tickets are to be issued and
they are to be punched by the man in
charge of the city dump.
The chief of police was instructed
to remove the stairway at the rear of
the Kimball block at the corner Of.
Main and Wisconsin streets at once
and it will probab1 be taken down
within the next few days.
The council spent some time dis
cussing the purchase of an adding
machine for use at the city hall and
it is probable that the machine will
be, bought. The machine is badly
needed by the city clerk and the
greatest draw back in purchasing it
is the fact that it costs 1915.
The cattle cars which have been
standing along the tracks of the North
Western near the Prairie avenue
crossing we're declared a nuisance by
the people residing in that district
and the North Western Railway COM
pauy will be notified that this switch
is not to be used for the storing Of
such cars.
4 The council adjourned after the
usual routine business.

CHANGE IN PLAN
Milwaukee Trains on G. & NV. Road
to Have Regular Engineers

An1mportant change was made this
week n the operation Of the through
Milwaukee trains on the Northwest
ern railroad.
Ever since these trains we're put on
the plan has been for the engineers to
run the trains on the plan of first in,
first ont" This means that they
rotated in their turns as to who would
take out certain train and on this
plan they have always been operated.
However, the change has been
made at last which the engineers
have long wished for. Each has been
given Certain run. In other words,
the same engineer will run the en-
CINE on the same Milwaukee train
each day.
This change is far more satisfac-
tory to the engineers than the old
plan for they now can plan where
they will be at certain hour whereas
under the old plan they could not as
they would have to take out the first
train that came in their way. The
change will also be appreciated by
the train dispatchers for they can
keep better track Of their men.
These through Milwaukee runs are
considered the best paying and the
most desirable Of all the runs on the
road, hence changes in their operation
is a matter Of Importance and inter-
est, especially to railroad men.

BY NARROW MARGIN
Kenosha Baseball Team Defeats
Waukegan by a Score os 2 to
at Waukegan Sunday
PULSE PITCHES GOOD BALL

Pulse pitched in great form Sunday
afternoon and the Kenosha players
had little trouble defeating Wauke-
gan by score Of 2 to l. However the
game was one of the best of the year
for the Breen team, and it must be
admitted that the Waukegan players
put up fight worthy of the name.
Lind, who was in the box for Wau-
kegau, was decidedly effective up to
the sixth inning and the Kenosha
boys were able to get but three hits
off him in the five innings. In the
sixth things changed and Laabs start
ed it by getting a base on balls, and
Knipple followed with a hit but was
caught off second base. Coping
saved the frstrun with hit out into
right and he trotted home few min
utes later when Block landed on the
ball for a two Dagger. This ended
the scoring so far as the Kenosha
boys we're concerned. The Waukegan
boys got their only run in the seventh
on hit and an error.
on the Waukegan diamond and it
drew the largest crowd. Fully three
hundred people went down from this
city and aided in roofing out victory
for the Breen team. The Waukegan
men had been warned that the
Kenosha crowd had money to sbet on
the result of the contest, but they
kept their money in their clothes as
they feared the work of Pulse. It
was almost impossible to get bet on
the game without offeringiodds of two
to one in favor of Kenosha.
AS this gives the home team the
two games neededsto win the series it
is not probable that another game
will be played. The Kenosha team
will go to Sheboygan next Sunday for
two games with Sheboygan and on
the Following Sunday Racine will
play on the local diamond. The score
