Affair To Be Given "Wednesday By Bisbee Board of Trade Will Be Notable Event. Board EnIarges Scope.

From all indications the banque which is to be given by the Bisbe' Board of Trade next Wednesday even ing is to be one of the most stirring affairs that has occurred i'll the city fol the past year. No further proof of tht energy and disinterestedness of tht members of the Board is needed thar the thorough and enthusiastic manner in which they have prepared for the occasion, the prominent personageS they have induced to attend and the entertaining program which will be rendered.
 4 meeting of the banquet commit tee was held yesterday afternoon ir the office of Buvton-Smith Company, in which further details for the banquet were attended to, and a partial list oi toasts for the evening prepared Ad dresses are already assured from Gov Kbbey. Hon. G. J. McCabe, Attorney c. F. Ellerbe of Tombstone and Col Powell of this city. This list is in itself sufficient to warrant an evening instructive and entertaining, and with two or three additions that will be made, the list of toasts will be all that could be desired.
 h speaking of the coming event and the general work of the Board oi Trade of the city of Bisbee, George Buxton, president of that organization said: The Bisbee Board of Trade has entered upon a new era; it's scope Phas been extended and enlarged, and both the field of it's membership and the things which 1t will endeavoT tC accomplish have been enlarged The organization, successful as it has been in the past, has taken on new life and interest; and there is no doubt but that the coming year is to be the brightest in it's history.
 Heretofore little effort has beer made to secure members outside the business men of the city. From now on this policy is changed, and besides the regular work which has been the care of the Board, it will endeavor tC secure the cooperation of every per son who has at heart the upbuilding of the city. Every person who feels thus toward the advancement of the city is cordially invited to join the or ganization.. Already quite a number who have heard of this new policy have handed in their applications tc the secretary, and iii order to receive new members, under the new order oi things, a special meeting of the Board will be held Monday afternoon. Per sons joining at that time should pre- viously hand in their applications to G. K. Reynolds, secretary to the or ganization, who can be found in the Schmid building"
 Arrangements have been completed for the laying of about 150 covers for Wednesdays banquet, which will be held in the Royal Cafe Those who wish to secure tickets to the affair should do so at once, as there is only a limited number left Bs decision of the members of the Board. all those who join at the meeting which is to be held Monday afternoon will be en titled to purchase tickets for the ban quet.
 Two letters were yesterday received by the secretary of the Board, one from P. s. Clark, attorney general for the territory, stating that he would be present and deliver an address, and another from J. L. B. Alexander United States attorney of Arizona The latter will be unable to attend but the letter is reprinted, together with that of Attorney General Clark's as showing the appreciation in which outsiders hold the Bisbee Board oi Trade.
