FIRE DEPARTMENT
 WANTS MORE MONEY
A Committee Appointed To Find a
 Method of Getting 1t.

At the regular monthly meeting of the Tempe fire department held We'd nesday evening, it developed that the funds of the organization were at rather low stage and committee was appointed to plan some method of in creasing the exchequer. It is probable that in the near future a play will be presented.
 Another matter of considerable i'm pOrtance was brought up for discus sion. The firemen complain that ire quently when an alarm is sounded the hose team is delayed from getting to the scene of the fire in the quickest possible time, by the rigs that get in the way on he street The drivers of these vehicles probably do not realize that they are interfering with the de- partment but such is the case and the firemen wish the attention of the pub called to this matter and request that whenever an alarm is sounded, the people give the hose team every ad- vantage and make plenty of room for it. -fJ

TONIGHT, THE NIGHT
 OF 4 GOOD PLAY
Damon and Pythias at the Goodwin
 Opera House.


 The advance seat sale for the per formance of Damon and Pythias at the opera house this evening has surpass- ed anything in the history of the Goodwin opera house. Yesterday noon 160 seats had been sold, taking every seat in the front part of the house and the demand was still brisk It should not be understood from this state. ment, however, that there are no more good seats left Exactly the contrary is the case for the management of the opera house has arranged to have placed in the hall. 150 additional chairs thus giving over three hundred first class reserved seats, for the seats twenty rows back from the stage com mand just as good a view of it as those half that far. In addition to these ex- tra seats, there will be the usual gen eral admission seats and the hall will have a seating capacity sufficiently large to accommodate all. though there is every indication that the attendance this evening will be a record breaking one.
 The finishing touches were put on the special scenery yesterday after noon and the last practice was finished SO now every thing is in readiness for the performance.
 Tomorrow evening the play will be put on at the Vance auditorium in Mesa.
