RECEPTION AT THE CAPITOL

The executive committee of the committee of arrangements for the entertainment of the president held another meeting yesterday and de- cided on further details of the pro- gram. some of which it is quite im- portant the public should know In the first place, the hour of the presi- dents arrival cannot be definitely an- nounced yet, but as nearly as can now be arrived at it will be about 1O:30 a. m.
 The most important announcement to the general public is that all who want to be sure that they will see the president and hear him speak, should arrange to go to the city plaza at that hour or as soon after as possible. fix themselves as com fortably as possible and patiently await Mir. Taft's coming They will not be disappointed, for that is one place he will be taken for a certainty, whether he eyer gets any further or
  ticularly clever and seek out some better point of vantage might per- adventure be disappointed. though it is expected the plan will be carried out as heretofore and herewith an- nounced. The plaza, though, is the sure place for everybody.
 It was decided at yesterdays meet ing to make the grand stand, which will be next to the city hall, facing Washington street, larger than was previously planned. It will be 30xsO feet in size, and is designed to ac- commodate about 500 people The committee estimates that the home officials and committee. and the vis- iting reception committees from the southern and eastern towns, will num- Der about that many and it is de- sired that all of these shall have seats on the platform. The program, as near as it can now be outlined, follows.
 In the first place, the presidential train will not stop at the depot, and those who have been planning to catch a first sight of MT. Taft at the station, then follow him up town, had better revise their plans, for they will almost certainly be dis appointed It is authoritatively an- nounced that the presidential train will go clear through the city and be brought to a standstill at some point facing the territorial capitol building Here the party will be met by the reception committee in au- tomobiles. and by an escort of the territorial militia under Colonel Me Clintock, consisting of the two Phoe- nix companies, and the Tempe and Mesa City and Buckeye companies. The parade will move from that point to the capitol building.
 The visit at the capitol building will be very short, and will be very much of formal function, to be participated in by the officials and by the reception committees from Phoenix and the other Arizona cities that send delegations. For it's own protection against disappointment, the general public is cordially invited to stay away from the capitol build ing. for admission will be only by card. and there will be five compa- nies of militia. as well as the police and the presidents body guard, to see that this little regulation is re- spected Those who think they can bluff their way through and into the building, should there be any such. will probably miss seeing the president at all. for as soon as the forrnalities at the capitol are over the president and other visitors, to- gether with the reception committee. and escort, will enter automobiles and be driven direct to the city plaza. where President Taft will make a short address to the public.
 At the conclusion of the presi- dents address. the presidential party will re-enter the automobiles for the ride through the country. The first section of the route will be out Gen. tral avenue to the Indian school. As the procession is leaving the city it will halt in front of the Central school building. on the Central ave nue side. where the president will make five minute talk to the school children.
 In respect of the assembling of the school children, they will all be expected to go to school as usual in the morning. and place themselves under the direction and discipline of their teachers. and so remain. At the appointed time. all the teachers
