were sent out 10 tell tne NoIlu "D'u' the aviation meeting in Phoenix. have returned to the city and report that q big crowd can certainly be expected from territorial towns. Mir. Peyser. who covered the Globe section and intervening points. says there will be q large delegation from that camp without doubt Arrangements have been made for running a daily stage over the hills from Globe to Kelvin and from the latter point the visitors can get half fare round trip tickets. Lots of them want to come anyway and this is their opportunity.
 Alex Cunningham, q commercial traveler, arrived from Globe yester- day. commissioned to hire two auto mobiles and send them up to Globe for tourist party that desires to come via Roosevelt. Globe has mum ber of autos and it Is quite likely they win all be in Phoenix next week.
 George Alauk wired to A. F. Cater Of the NJ X P. tn reserve him two rooms with bath connected with each Cater thinks Mir. Alauk must bc preparing to spread out q little but saws he will fix him. He is preparing to quarter him in a corral near the river, where he can bathe all the time II Inc wants to. IL is not presumed the average visitor will care to waste any time bathing when he gets here he will be SO busy watching the air ships However all the bath rooms in town will be at their disposal if they really do want to freshen up.
 znl- -F r.l U. Young. secretary of Arizona. yes terday formally acknowledged receipt of the invitations rendered them by the Phoenix Aero club. Mir. Young is here and proposes to stay. Judge Campbell says he will come if he can possibly get awae from court busi- negs
 The finance committee yesterday reported that 1t had received addi- tional subscriptions to the guarantee fund amounting to sS50.
 President McDouGall said arrange ments are being made for race be- tween Glenn Curtiss in an airship and some local daredevil in an automobile. Curtiss will be on hand and ii is only s question of getting the local driver NlfP- Ndi S' Afhoe N'A'N7'A NAa i machine on the track.
 Messrs. McDougall and Reiss yes- terday took trip to the fair grounds and picked out the place where they propose to put the automobiles.
 There are only twenty boxes left in the grand stand and again the warn ing is issued to those who want them to hurry and get on the list
 Attention is called to those who propose driving to the grounds, that their rigs will be admitted to the grounds all right but 1t is suggested to them that on arriving they better hitch their horses back by the sheds and barns. for if they are driven up to the track as at q .horserace meet ing there is likely to be trouble and perhaps tragedy. The airships will fly low a good part of the time and there is no telling how the horses will stand for that sort of a demonstration. number will take fright and hurt the drivers or somebody else. It was not cd by Phoenix visitors at the Los An geles meeting that seldom if ever was horse seen near the grand stan1. It is better to be safe.
 The room renting\ campaign made fine progress yesterday Many new rooms were listed and the committee is hopeful that an ample number will he secured without resorting to emer- gency plans. There is surely shelter enough in town for all who may come. in good comfortable rooms, if thu. householders will only list them. The solicitors will be kept at work until next Wednesday and if the peo- pie continue the liberal treatment of the last two days everything will be all right.
 There was one little disappointment yesterday. or rather q blasted hope. It will be remembered that General Godfrey was commissioned to try and Secure the presence of q detachment of government troops as an added at traction for the meeting It was fear ed all the time that that would be impossible but nothing is considered impossible in Phoenix until it has been tried. Yesterday the following kindly letter was received and while it Is a decided refusal it shows that General Thomas would delight in granting the favor if he could.
 Headquarters. Dept. of the Colorado.
 Denver. Colo, Jan. -, 1910. Mir Dear Godfrey:
 Yours of the 18th received this morning. As the orders now stand 1t is Impossible -to- comply in any way,
