 1 CHARLES K. HAMILTON. The above telegram needs no ex- l planation other than to say it came l in response to message from MT. Reiss. sent the day before, and that it l indicates the way in which the Aero club management is keeping in touch ' with the flyers.
 Another incident of yesterday was the rendering by President McDougan of a box to George |. Young. secre- tary of the territory and present act ing governor for the use of himself and party during the meeting. The tender was accompanied by letter apprising MT. Young that the experts of the club had weighed him in their minds and had found that he still had the air ships outclassed; that is, he is too heavy for theuf MT. McDougail would like to invite him to ride in one, but he does not want to smash up the machines until after the show. Mir. Young's oniy hope for a ride. therefore. is that Mir. Curtiss will
 bring along one Of his newer con- structions, suitable for carrying heavy freight This is no reflection on NIT. Young. for the club is not responsible for his size or the limitations of the aeroplanes.
 President McDougall also rendered a box to the judges of the supreme court. It is not known how many of them will be here. but if they are in town it Is a safe prediction that their box will be occupied.
 Manager Reiss also received a tele- gram yesterday from A. T. Thompson, Superintendent of the Arizona and New Mexico railroad, announcing that half fare rates had been announced on his line from Clifton to Lardsburg, N. NJ. for all who wanted t6 attend the aviation meeting In Phoenix.
 A fine picture of the aviation meet ing in Los Angeles. taken at a time when all six Of the air craft that made the big show there were in the air. and at least five of which will be at the Phoentx meeting. The picture was sent by Elliot Evans, and Is now on display in the store window Of Me Dougail & Casson.
 Attention is again called to the fact that the list Of applicants for boxes is going. rapidly. and it will be wise for those who want boxes to act promptly.
 The chief matter of business before the Aero club and the people of Phoe- nix this week will be the listing of rooms. and it is a thing that no citi- zen can afford to overlook. Each one must consider himself committee or one if the big crowd is to he properly entertained. Harry Allen is now neck deep in the business of accepting list ings and urging others to make list ings. Quite a number of rooms were listed yesterday. Nbut not so many as Were hoped for. Mir Allen has de- yised advertisements to be run in the local papers. that every person should inspect They carry blanks which may be filled out. giving all the neces- sary facts concerning any room reader may be willing to offer. Those who desire to help in this matter, or those who do not desire to, but will be willing to for the general welfare Of the community, are urged to fill out these blanks and bring them or send them to aviation headquarters at once. Those who have rooms. but do not care to even go to that much trou- ble, are asked to/telephone Mir Allen the facts. and he will fill the blank at his end of the line. but it will be better if convenient to call personally The blanks may be mailed. if that is easier; any way. so they get to head quarters.
