THE FOURTH AT THE PARK.

The Eastlake park and street car management proposes to celebrate the fourth of July in a fitting manner in addition to what will be done in the city. It is believed that whatever the town festivities may be there will be many who will prefer to spend the day a trifle nearer to natures heart, at least near enough so they can roll on the grass or even roll in the lake if they get too close, or row a boat if they are not too lazy. There will be a matinee by the Morton Stock company in the afternoon at o'clock and the regular performance at in the even ing. There will also be a baseball game at o'clock. dancing at o'clock and at night big exhibition of fire works. The invitation to all is to go to the park as early as they please and stay until it is all over. Just when that will be will be announced later at the park. There will be special service on the Indian School car line
 CIVIL SERVICE xAMINATION.- Civil Service examinations will be held on July 20 to secure eligibles to fill two vacancies in the posting of trans ferrer in the bureau of engraving and printing, one at S2400 and the other at s2lO0 per year; and two vacancies in the position of negative cutter and lithographic draftsman in the U s.

 A BOY HURT.-A little son of J. A. Porterie was injured yesterday evening by being thrown from a horse. The boy had never been on horseback be- fore and when another boy came along riding a pony he was induced to get on behind. He had hardly been seated when the pony began bucking. It did not take a great deal of bucking to un- seat the inexperienced youngster and he fell to the ground in a heap. He was dazed and helpless at first and it was feared that he was badly hurt but after he was taken home a physician said that he would soon be all right. A woman who was sitting on the porch of the Porter building saw the accident and tainted.

FIGHTS AND FINES.-Justice Kyle had before him yesterday the following docket: Alfred Smith, charged with assaulting one Villalava during a drunken row at Five Points Saturday night His fine was s20. Floyd Butts was found rot guilty of a disturbance of the peace. Andy Garcia a familiar figure, was again in the tolls and paid s5 for his fun. Manuel Zepulveda got five days for being on highalonesome.
 IRON SPRINGS COlONY.-The Iron Springs colony is growing daily with the exodus of a number of famil- ies from Phoenix for the summer. Quite a number have gone up to the cool re- sort among the pines during the past week Among later ones are the famili- es of J. A. Marshall, Miss. Agnes An .derson, c. w. Goodman, Ralph Murphy, w. J. Murphy, Edw. Ceilings, L. B. Christy, Walter Bennett, A. K. Stacy and others.
 BACK FROM RoosEVELT-L. c. Hill returned Sunday evening from Roosevelt He says construction on the dam is proceeding very rapidly now, about 200 men being employed. These men lay about 500 cubic yards of masonry per day at a labor expense of $1 per yard. There are other at tendant expenses of course, such as powder, depreciation of plant, tools, etc, but the contract price of $3.15 a yard affords nice little profit just now. The contractor is fully entitled to all he can make however, for a lot of his masonry has cost him $10 yard and he is entitled to little easy sailing if he expects to break any where near even. The first building in the new Roosevelt on the Mesa is carpenter shop put up by Dick Behr. The removal will begin very rapidly now for the next big flood is likely to see something doing down in the ba- sin. The dam is 75 feet high at the highest point, and 22 feet high at the lowest point. in the upper face where four derricks are busy filling the gap. On the way home MT. Hill passed a big load of pipe for the waterworks for the new Roosevelt. This will be a small plant however, from the limited source of supply in Cottonwood can yon and is designed to furnish drink ing water only for the town. Any ad- ditional supply will have to be pump ed from the Power canal.
