LAW WILL BE ENFORCED.
Fire Cracker Shooting Must Be Con fined to the Tempe Butte.

The city council has no desire tO restrict the patriotism of Young America but on account of the pres ent dry condition of things in gen eral, it has been thought best to see that the law regarding the shooting of firecrackers on the third and fourth of July be enforced to the letter. Marshal Brown has been so instructed and the mayor has is sued the following notice:
 Notice is hereby given to the bus mess men and residents of the town Of Tempe, that owing to the un- usual dry conditions of the weather, and after interviewing the mer- chants. I have decided, that on the 3rd and 4th days of July. to strictly enforce the fire ordinance No. 57, which prohibits the firing of bombs or firecrackers soutK of the Hayden canal Anyone violating the provi- sions of this ordinance will positively be punished according to law

I empe, the City of the Vale

At the time of writing it is inn possible to gather any details of the fire MT. and Mrs. Johnston and children were out driving at the time and did not return until their home was almost in ruins. It was learned though that no fire had been in the dining room all day and from the fact that Chas. Thew first saw the flames in that room it is pre- sumed it started there. It's origin is a mystery, however, that may never be solved.
 The house was the property of Mrs. George. now living in Alabama. and was insured with the Aetna In surance company through R. A. Windes for $500. It is understood that no insurance was carried on the household goods.

BOARD OF TRADE MEETS.
Various Matters Discussed Including the Location of the Salt
 River Bridge.

The directors of the Tempe board of trade held an important meeting at the board of trade rooms Monday evening at which time a number of subjects were brought under discus sion, not emitting the matter of the Salt River bridge which usually comes to the front at some time during every meeting of the board. The medium through which it was introduced Monday evening was let ter from Dwight B. Heard of Phoe- nix requesting a meeting or the board of trade with the officials of the Phoenix and South Side Bridge company. In the letter MT. Heard intinated that it was the desire of the officials of the company that the Tempe board of trade lend its support to a project that has re- ceived more or less publicity of late, namely, the building of a bridge across Salt River at a point ap- proXimately south of Phoenix. The board was not overly enthusiastic over the proposition for it has in mind a somewhat similar project here and is strong in the belief that the Tempe location is the logical and only proper one for d bridge across the river However the board in structed the secretary to advise MT Heard that it was ready and willing at any time to meet with the off cials of the bridge company and talk the question over.
 H. l.. Chandler of Mesa was pres ent at the meeting and addressed it at some length on the subject of supplying the towns of Tempe and Mesa with gas. Mir. Chandlers ideas on the subject were pretty thor oughly presented to the public by the Mesa correspondent of this pa | per some weeks ago when the mat ter was first brought up and the public is doubtless familiar with tl,1 Iplan. NIT. Chandler proposes to de- vote his summers vacation to look | ing up the matter more thoroughly, visiting towns in California ard elsewhere that have gas plants and
 when he returns in the fall he cX- !pects to have something tangible for lthe people of the two towns to con- sider.
