BOUND OVER IN THE
 SUM OF IS CENTS

One of the stingest rules incorporat- ed in the bylaws of the OIympian club. the new athletic organization here. is to the effect that no member shall be absent from any of the meet ings of the club. unless such member can render a sufficient excuse; other wise he is to be fined for the offense. One of the organizers who was instru- mental in incorporating this rule in the bylaws, is a prominent physician of this city, and who has also proved himself the first to break this regula- tion.
 This offense occurred at a time when the club was yet in it's organiza- tion state, and the services of this inn portant member could not well be dis pensed with, but this however, in the estimation of the members only served to make the crime the greater, and the law breaker was allowed no re- course but to plead guilty to the charge. and choose his defenders, and the case will be tried at the next reg ular meeting of the Olympian club, in the meantime he is bound over in the sum of fifteen cents.

HlGH SCHOOL FACING
 LEFT 10 THE BOARD
Yesterdays Mass Meeting Was
 Short One and Little Was Done.

The high school mass. meeting fol the purpose of determining which way the building Is to face, was held yes terday afternoon in Curry hall and lasted about ten minutes. At the end of that time the matter was left solely in the hands of the board where it was at the first place.
 The meeting was called by the board for the reason that there was consid- erable apparent opposition to facing the building to the east as had been decided upon. The board wished to give the public a chance to express it's preference, hence the meeting called for yesterday afternoon.
 F. H. Simmons was chosen chairman and J. O. Mullen secretary of the meeting. The business transacted may almost wholly be summed up in a motion that was passed to this effect; that the matter of facing the build ing be left to the board. but that it be sense of the meeting that it have a double facing. both east and west if this be considered practicable by the board" This matter of having two facings has been given some thought lately and it is quite likely that it will be the solution of the problem.

PRAG1ICING NIGHTLY
 FOR FIELD DAY WORK
prews Park Will Be Placed In Good Condition At Once.


 Several of those who will take part in the contest for the loving cup on Field day, September 7th at Drew's park. are practicing nightly for the event, and are getting in good form.
 Yesterday several men were at the grounds at Drew's park for the pur- pose of practicing. but it was found impossible until the track is placed in better shape, owing to the unevenness of the ground. Disks will soon be run over the track, and the ground leveled and put in splendid shape for the oc- casion. This is to be done Immediately in order to allow all of the time pos sible between now and Field day for practice work as only two, weeks re- main and it will be necessary for the contestants to get right down to busi- ness if the home contestants desire to be in the field for any of the laurels offered the winners.
 It has been arranged to hold a meet ing tonight in the Mesa opera house, for the purpose of getting the athletes together who will enter the contest on Field day, in order to reach a definite understanding regarding the best mode of procedure in the matter of train ing.

wheel that comes handy. rides it a few miles and throws it in the weeds along side Of the road.
 ! From developments yesterday morn ] ing it seems that this party took the first wheel Thursday evening from in front of the express office. It was a
 new one and the tires were only half inflated Discovering this fact near the depot, the thief discarded the wheel iwhere it was found next morning. He evidently turned around right away and came back to town for a second attempt but this proved to be even less fof a success than the first one. The second wheel he took was standing in

SHALL MESA HAVE
 A GOOD BRASS BAND
If Retained, It Is Necessary For the Organization To Be More liberaliy Supported.

| While it must be acknowledged that
 this is not the most pleasing of sit-
 nations. yet this is practically the
 condition of affairs in the Gem City
 regarding the maintenance and sup port of the band.
 | At a recent meeting of this organi- zation. it was decided that it would be | impossible to continue unless more | support in financial way was accord ed to the boys by the merchants and | business men of Mesa. Some of these when approached the second time for | the subscription promised. stated that
 they signed the agreement with the
 understanding that the first payment
 would be all that would be required. Others, however, paid the amount l without any question.
 Notwithstanding this, the amounts collected during this month have been insufficient to meet the expenses of the organization. and there seems to be no ultimatum for the boys but to disband unless the merchants and
 business men here come to the front the band out with liberal and timely
 donations.
 Some of the members, on the strength of the assurance that support would be forthcoming, have ordered musical instruments for use in the band. from the east, and as it is a well known fact that the instruments will be useless excepting in an organi- tion of this kind. they will simply have gone to this expense for nothing.
 The boys have been diligent in prac- tice, and have showed marked Inn provement under the direction and leadership of Professor Alden who has been training the boys weekly. It is not at all in keeping with the custom of the residents here that this organ ization should disband when it has scarcely more than become ready for actual work in it's line. and it is sin cerely to be hoped that the necessary aid for the maintenance of band for the Gem City will be forthcoming.
 One of the entertaining features of the season here has been the Saturday night concerts in the band stand. and these have been greatly enjoyed by not only the residents of the town, but from the country districts as well. These concerts have become recognized as a great drawing card, and it is needless to say that they will be miss ed, should they be discontinued.

it must be admitted that he is not lacking in nerve. As near as can be figured out, all tllree wheels were talk en before ten o'clock in the evening and MT. Dimes was the only one missed until the next morning.
 A search was mades for the one un- recovered wheel all the forenoon and along towards noon it was discovered in Frank Fogals field, west of the rail- road track. It was little the worse for the usage it had received the night before, though it had evidently been used some.
 If this kind Of work keeps un much longer. some one is going to get caught at it. Under the new law the theft of a bicycle is felony and in view of the fact that so many wheels have been taken here lately, it is likely to go pretty hard with the offender if he is ever caught.
