THE COUNCIL.

The first business of the council was to postpone indefinitely the house bill to license clubs and other places where liquors are sold. The object of the bil was plainly to place upon clubs the same license of $500 a year that sa- looms are required to pay. and. judging from the source of the bill, there was no hidden motive. But MT. Goodrich pointed out that it's enactment would wipe out all local option legislation which has been accomplished.
 The following bills were passed:
 By MT. Hampton, providing for a uniform course of study in normal schools
 By MT. Morgan. his personal liability bill
 The Duffy house bill, providing for the segregation of the offices of pro- bate judge and county school superin- tendent in all counties. was laid on the table at the suggestion of Mir. Goodrich, who said that one of the evils of the times was the creation of new offices, of which there had been created 96,00O by the federal gov ernment within the last five years.
 NAAs V ~Ntlii DAi NO-Optid tive canals from taxation was re-re- ferred. The committee of the whole favOrably reported MT Days bill pro viding that no restraining order should be issued in actions for the collection of taxes unless the applicant for the order could make affirmative showing that the property in question was not subject to taxation for that year An unfavorable report was made by the whole committee on MT. Hunts bill for the creation of an Arizona State hood league composed of two members from each county. appointed by the governor
 There were favorable reports on sev- eral bills. including the house measure of MT. Bailey in relation to the ap- pointment of election inspectors and judges. The present law is amended by the provision that no federal or other official or candidate for office shall be eligible to sit on an election board.
 Both houses will resume business at 10 o'clock this morning.

.OLDSMOb|LE MACHINE
 DOES THE BIG STUNT
Made Successful Trip to Globe, Via
 Roosevelt, on the High Speed Gear.

Frank Hilderbran of the Central garage. Mrs. Hilderbran. Hughie Hughes, the chauffeur with a world breaking record, and c. S. Scott of The Republican, acting in the ca pacity of custodian of the sacred keys. returned from Globe last night, for which point they set out Sunday aft ernoon on ar automobile demOnstrat- ing trip. The trip was successful in every way, with just enough of the discomforts of weather. etc. incident to travel during the spasmodic season of the year, to make it quite enjoy able, even in it's most unpleasant fea- lures.
 The purpose of the trip was merely to demonstrate that the OldsmObile, for which the Central garage has se- cured the agency, could do something that no other machine has ever done, namely, make the trip over the road from Phoenix to Globe on the high speed gear. This was accomplished most successfully, though the task at times seemed quite embarrassing. The high speed lever was thrown in com mission and locked there with a heavy chain paddock, the keys to which the custodian carried in his pocket. Never once was the lock removed until the machine stopped in front of the Globe Silver Belt office Monday afternoon about 1 o'clock The start home was made at 12:30 Thursday afternoon, Globe time, the machine arriving in Tempe at $40 Thursday night, Globe time. As those interested understand, the start and finish were made in Tempe, Salt river being too high to drive a machine across, and the eff fort was not to make a speed record. but merely to test the flexibility of the Oldsmobile engine. Nevertheless, an afternoon jaunt from Globe to Tempe in eight hours and ten minutes was by no means a laggard's pace, when the weather and road conditions are considered, and with the further fact that about an hour and half for delays and ''rubbernecking at the dam and other things should be de- ducted to show the actual running time.
 The OIdsmobile did all that was asked of it, and more than it's san Ruine owners, even, had expected, the test beirs one that will prove feath- er in it's cap. The party did not get into Phoenix until an early hour this morning. as all the trains had passed f. r the night, and other accommoda- tons had to be provided.

CONGENIAl WORK And Strength to Perform 1t.

A person in good health is likely to have a genial disposition, ambi- tion, and enjoy work
 On the other hand, if the digestive organs have been upset by wrong food, work becomes drudgery
 Until recently" writes a Washing ton girl, T was railroad stenogra- pher, which means full work every day.
 Like many other girls alone in a house. For breakfast it was mush, greasy meat, soggy cakes, black cof- fee, etc.
 After few months of this diet used to feel sleepy and heavy in the mornings. My work seemed a terrible effort, and I thought the work was to blame-too arduous.
 At home I had heard my father speak of a young fellow who went long distances in the cold on Grape Nuts and cream and nothing more for breakfast.
 q concluded if it would tide him over a mornings heavy work, it might help me, so on my way home one night I bought a package and next morning I had Grape-Nuts and milk for breakfast.
 'I stuck to Grape-Nuts. and in less than two weeks I noticed improve ment. I can't just tell how well l felt, but I remember I used to walk the F blocks to business and knew how good it was simply to live.
 AS to my work-well, did you ever feel the delight of having con- genial work and the strength to per form it? That's how I felt. I truly believe there's life and vigor in ev- cry grain of Grape-Nuts."

Michigan University Alumni associa- tion of Arizona was held last evening at the Ford hotel and was a great success. Nearly thirty members were in attendance, a most inviting menu was served. an address given by Hon. Reese NJ. Ling of Prescott, and, fol- lowing a number of school songs, the floor was cleared for dancing, which was indulged in until an early hour this morning.
 Tn the absence from the city of l.. c. Hill, the president, Dr. J. M. Swet- nam occupied the seat of toastmaster as vice president. It had been the original plan to have a number of the members respond to toasts, but the lateness of the hour and the desire for a dance interfered and the plan was changed. MT. Ling was the one speaker. He responded to the toast. "The Ladies'" which afforded an abun- dant field for a gentleman of the speakers talent. He recalled many stories of interest to Michigan stu dents, some of the incidents referred to having been made possible by mem bers of the Arizona alumni.
 For the occasion the hall had been decorated most tastefully. the college colors of yellow and blue being used in profusion. A large letter NJ in cleo tric lights made an unusual set piece. which was hung on the wall at the head of the table. During the serving of the banquet an orchestra hidden be- hind a bank of palms discoursed mu- sic.
 The menu follows:
 Blue Points on the Half Shell
 Consomme a la Princess Radishes Celery Queen Olives
 Striped Bass. Tartar Sauce
 Parisienne Potatoes
 Fruit Salad en Cases
 Fillet of Beef aux Champignons Flaked Potatoes Pineapple Sherbet
 Young Turkey, Oyster Dressing Cranberry Sauce French Peas
 Fruit Nuts Candy
 Vanilla Ice Cream and Cake
 Bent's Water Crackers
 Camembert Cheese Cafe Noir
 Those who enjoyed the evening were: MT. and Mrs. J. M. Swetnam, Burt Mcdonald and Miss Mcdonald, Mrs. Elizabeth s. Brown, Louis C. Carr, Mrs. Hattie w. Lorraine, E. E. Ellinwood, Reese M.

 NIT. Goodrich's council bill abolishing the office of road overseer and creat- ing that of county road superintendent was passed, with some material amendment. It was shown by Mir Sut- ter that the business of collecting the road tax was now under way by the road overseers, whose business it is under the law, and 1t was pointed out that the abolition of this office would greatly derange the system. It was therefore proposed that the law should not become effective until January 1, 1910. This amendment was adopted. as was one by MT. Merrill, making it a misdemeanor for a firm, company. corporation or individual to fail to comply with the provisions of the act in the matter of the payment of taxes
 A report was received from the se- lect committee for the investigation of the normal school. It was shown that the school had spent within the last two years for new buildings and furnishings s1O1.OOO. and had over drawn it's allowance by s9.542.05. The school was found to be in a flourish ing condition. On account of the es- tablishment of various high schools there had been a lessening of the pre- paratory work at the normal and in consequence a raising of the standard The report recommended liberal treat ment of the school

The bill was passed un- der a suspension of the rules and sent to the house, where it was likewise put through, there was a disposition on the part of a minority to hold it up for a day.
