 COCKTAILS Ordinance Prohibits Sunday Sale d Liquor by Clubs FAVORED BY THE MAYOR
Hereafter the Thirsty Man Will Have to Be His Own Bar Keep-"Locker" Sys- tenn May Be Installed In Some Clubs.

Hereafter the social clubs of the city are prohibited from dispensing liquor on Sundays. An ordinance that has been hanging like a storm -cloud over the city of Phoenix for the past three months was expeditiously passed at a meeting of the city council last night.
 It provides that it shall be unlaw full for any association or organization to dispense liquor between the hours of 12 o'clock Saturday night till the same hour Sunday night. If the ordi- nance is enforced, as most of those now on the books are, Phoenix will have to do without her Sunday morning cocktail and Sunday evening highball. The thirsty man who has been driven from the saloon to the social Organiza- tion on Sundays for his julep or rickey will have to become his own bartender, and, with the handy "Barkeepers' Guide between his knees, may mix his own rickeys and juleps on the back porch.
 It is possible that the clubs will re- sort to an expedient much in vogue in cities where laws tending to curb hu man appetities are enforced-the scheme, which is more or less unsatis factory, of providing lockers for the club members in which liquid joy may be, kept on ice in quart bottles, each bottle having the owners name on it. This system, however, has its disad- vantages. It is unsociable and appar- ently selfish; for, according to the or dinance, a man may not offer his neighbor a drink out of his bottle, even though his neighbors tongue is hang ing out.
 The ordinance was introduced by Councilman Yeager, and carried unani- mously. Councilman Campbell was absent The ordinance is said to be particularly favored by the mayor and introduced at his request.
 The only other business transacted by the council was the canvas of the returns of the franchise elections. The results were the same as previously published. The text of the liquor ordi- nance follows:
