KttP IN MIND THE
 PARKER EXCURSION
It Will Be a Jolly TrainIoad and the Whole Town is Invited to Go Along.

Enthusiasm over the business mems excursion to Parker next Sunday un- der the auspices of the Maricopa County Commercial Club continues and there is no doubt but that a big train load of valley people will leave here for the Colorado river next Sun day morning. Though it is expected that all who go will have a fine time, rhe object of it is strictly business. that is future business. The railroad facilities have now made western Ari- zOna more accessible to Phoenix than to any other market and the natural interchange between the valley and the mining sections is sought to be en- couraged by the Phoenix business men. through personal acquaintance with the people of the mining country. and a better knowledge of its resources The reports from along the line of the 4. X C. indicate that the people there are willing and anxious to CO., operate and that they will do theIr full part in making the day pleasant for the eXcuTSionistS. At Wenden there will be a big barbecue for the visitors and it will sureiv be appreci- ated by them. A meeting of the busi- ness men Of Mesa City was held Wednesday afternoon and evening at which the representatives of the csm- mercial club presented some compar- isons in freight rates from the larger markets east and west to Phoenix and 10 other points both near and far showing very notable differences, and which differences it is the object Of the club to remove if possible or at least to improve. The meeting was well attended by the Mesa City mem bers of the club and by many others, some of whom added their names to the membership roll.
 And some of these new members will doubtless be found among the excur- siOnists next Sunday. for there are south side products that are needed in the mining camps as well as the supplies that are to be found in the Phoenix stores. For the convenience of all who wish to go on the excursion from the south side the Sunday morn- ing train from there will connect with the excursion train.
 It should be repeated that while this is a business mans excursion. it is not confined to ,,business men. Anybody can go who wants to. man. woman or child. who has the price of an excur- sion ticket which is $3.5O from Phoe- nix for the round trip. The phrase business man, itself is a broad term and does not mean a storekeeper eX- clusively but applies to almost every walk of life, for the man who does not do business of some kind is apt to be hungry before any great length of time elapscs. But the point to be em- phasized is that while the excursion has been arranged by the commercial club and most of its members are eX- pected to go 1t is by no means exclu- sive to the members and the more there are who go the better the club will like it. There will be things to eat on the train also, so if one does not take a lunch and fails to make good at the barbecue he can still be assured there will be no danger of starving to death.

MADE FOR YOUNG MEN.

Never before has the young man been so prominently before the world as in these days. He is ubiquitous, and he , glories in being so. And the reason of it is, that he has been catered to by the men who make good clothes-mod- els which appeal to young men have been worked out ad infinitum, season after season-youthful dress and tastes have become so in evidence in the lead ing clothing stores, that men verging on the shady side of 45 or more have been made to feel their oats again when they got into clothing built for young men. And they have put on and worn suits made for younger men, and carried off the appearance of young men successfully. That is why you see young men everywhere-men rescued from the aging effects of wearing clothes of elderly cut and put into youthful dress which keeps them feel ing and looking young. How do we know this? Meigs & Co. report an in- creasing demand this season for cloth ing of youthful ,cut and pattern, not alone from young men, but from men who have not called themselves young until this season. The clothiers state that attractive patterns of the new Spring suits have inticed men to fresh en up their attire. Certainly, this can easily be done at Meigs & Co.'s store, for nowhere else in town can such a wide range of bright and cheerful pat terms in new Spring clothes for men be found.

LOUIS M BOOTH APPEARS
TO TAKE HIS SHARE UNDER THE
 EL0N BOOTH WILL.

Edward B. Booth and family were somewhat surprised the other day when Louis M. Booth, their son, ap- peared upon the threshold of their home. MT Booth, who is about 26 years of age, has been missing for some years and it was question if he was alive or not. So that when the Messrs w. A. Leonard and the young mans fathre, E. E. Booth, filed their final account in the Probate Court and distributed the estate of Elon Booth in October last, it became necessary to appoint a trustee to take the share of Louis M. Booth, his father, was ap- pointed. Louis M. Booth will now re- ceive from his father approximately S3O,0OO in choice securities, which re- presents his share under the will of his grand-uncle, Elon Booth, who died in March, 1890, and whose will was the subject of long and expensive litiga- tion. The trial of the case took some six weeks to finish and in which such eminent council as the late Samuel Fes- senden of Stamford. the late Judge Brewster of Danbury, the late Judge D.F. Hollister of Bridgeport and Judge R. E. DeFroest and Judge w. J. Beech CT were engaged. The trial resulted in the will being sustained and the es- tate tied up for period of IA years, which elapsed on October 6, last.

We take pleasure in calling attention

We take pleasure in calling attention to the new advertisement of James J. Kerwin of 163 John street. Bridgeport,
 who advertises the holsman Automo-
 bile Co.,, the modern hill climber that
 ''runs all the year round" and has high
 wheels. Here is what one of the users
 say of it: The writer has had svme experience with low-wheel pneumatic tire machines, and also with steam carriages. However, none of these rigs seemed ideal for our purposes. 1 have never found travelled wagon road that the machine would not climb, in any kind of weather or with any kind of roads. I took it out for a test with large man and about 100 pounds of baggage; taking a path through the sagebrush, sand and rock and up an extremely steep hill I choked the en. zine down, but immediatly upon leav- ing the passenger out, pulled up the hill without assistance. This was over a road that a team of horses were not able to go up with a light buggy and two passengers. Most of our travelling is done during or immediately after bad storms, and l think it averages from 75 to 90 miles on five gallons of gasoline. We would not purchase any other automobile for our purposes, al- though we have tried several. Another feature of great value to us in this country is that it does not frighten teams. It looks like an ordinary buggy when standing, and we have yet to find the team that will not go by it, even on a grade. Another good feature is that ordinarily you can turn out and pass or go by team, running through tall sagebrush and over rock piles." MT Kerwin is accessible to all parts of the country around Bridgeport and keeps all of the parts of the Holsman. There are a great many Holsmans in Bridge port, and give him call and learn about it.

ENTERTAINMENT A SUCCESS.
BY PUPILS OF MRS J. W.GORDON

The entertainment given by the music pupils of Mrs ]. w. Gordon at the Beach Memorial Library building on Tuesday evening, April 2l, 1908. was in every way notable success. Con- sidering the age of the children who took part in the same, and the brief time they have been under instruction, together with the fact that it was their first effort before an audience of critics, we cannot well see how it could have been better. The seating capacity of the library room was taxed to its utmost. IS well as the standing room of the en- trance way, and the strictness of at- tention given by the audience, testified to the fact that the children held all spell bound from start to finish. It was indeed "the children's hour"
 The music, both vocal and instru- mental, was highly enjoyed. Where each one did so well, it is difficult to particularize. The entertainment was prolonged beyond the hours time and several were called out the second time, and responded so aptly and readily, as to show good memory and much self possession.
 Taken all in all, the Patronesses, Miss s. J. Scudder, Mrs c. F. Boards ley, Mrs c. s. Platt and Mrs s. c. Glover, the teacher, Mrs J. w. Gordon. the parents and friends of the children and the children themselves, have abundant reason to feel we'll repaid for their efforts and as a money benefit for the library comes from it, it all may be regarded as work along educational lines.
 The program as rendered was as follows:
 Piano and mandolin, "March of the Tin Soldiers" Misses Dorothy James and Millie Allen.
 Vocal, "The Robin Song," Master Frank Johnson. Miss Mildred Hawley, accompanist.
 Piano duet and violin, Misses Millie Allen, Catherine and Mary Farrell.
 Recitation, "The Good Old Way,' Miss Marguerite Beecher.
 Violin duet, "Old Folks at Home, v Mss Lillian Beers and Master George Yahraus.
 Vocal, "When the Merry Spring time," Miss Elizabeth Rondyke.
 Violin solo, "The Last Rose of Sum- mer," Miss Millie Allen.
 Recitation, "How Rubenstein played the piano." Miss Miriam Smith.
 Violin solo, My Old Kentucky Home," "with variations, Master George w. Yahrous.
 Quartet, Southern Lullaby" Misses Elizabeth Rondyke, Viola Clark, Mas ters Herbert Ferris and Frank Johnson.
 The receipts at the door were $l6.25, all of which goes for the benefit of the Beach Memorial Library. L. J.
 Miss Anna Houlihan, who was ac- companist at the children's entertain ment on Tuesday evening, did remark = ably well for one so young. One might readily think an older and more expe- rienced person was lingering the key board. She also brought forth the music for the danciing that waa a pleasant finale of the literary enter tainment.

INTERESTING CASE DECIDED BY
 JUDGE GAGER
THE E. E. NETTLEToN ESTATE.

On Friday last in New Haven Judge Edwin B. Gager handed down de- cision in the case of the appeal of the Saybrook Bank of Essex from com missioners on the estate of E. E. Net tleton, sustaining the action of the commissioners. The commissioners decided that Judge w. J. Beecher of Newtnwn as administrator of Mir Net tleton's estate was entitled to fund of about S7,300 in the hands of the railroad Company, which was claimed by the bank under an assignment. This decision Judge Gager affirms. The commissioners further decided that the sum of S1600 which MT Beecher claimed as administrator also belonged to him, belonged to the bank, which decision is sustained by Judge Gager. It is barely possible that both of these cases will be appealed to the Supreme Court, which will convene in New Ha- ven in June. What the ultimate out come will be cannot be forcasted. If the Supreme court should agree with Judge Gager it will increase substan- tially the dividend the creditors will receive.
