The entire interior of the place will be revamped and changed, utiliz- ing the present freight and bag gage end of the depot for waiting rooms, The west end of the pres- ent depot will be given over to a private room for Agent Buckbee and trainmen. The operators room will probably remain in about its present location, and the ticket window will face the east.
 The brick platform is being torn up, and will be raised about a foot and extended across the double tracks to the south and a new brick platform' put around the north side of the depot. It is said that westbound trains will come in on the north tracks as soon as the yards are strengthened out.

 pier frame of mind, all in anticipa- ton of the big 1910 territorial fair. The fair management say it will be the best fair ever held in Arizona. Certainly the preparations are on grander scale than ever before.
 Exhibitions for the mineral de- partment have been arriving for the past two weeks. Colonel Epes Randolph, superintendent of this department, has made several trips to encourage exhibitors in all parts of the territory.
 In the horse and mule depart ment one stable in Maricopa conn., ty will show thirty-six colts, all of them prize winners wherever they have exhibited.
 The morning parade of blue rib bon cattle has always been a fea- ture of the fair, and this year will be more than worth while seeing.
 The superintendent of the sheep show has been so successful this year that over nine different breeds of sheep will be on exhibition. All of the larger sheep outfits of north ern Arizona will have exhibits at this years fair.
 Al Tyler, who last year was a judge in the poultry department, upon completing his work said: There never was a better all around exhibition of ducks, tur- keys, pigeons and ostriches in any show l have ever attended, and l have worked continuously as a judge for the past ten years in diff ferent states from the Atlantic to the Pacific" This year the show Al Tyler was speaking of will far surpass that of any previous year.
 In the past the apiary and dairy departments have been small, but this year there is keen rivalry and the dairy exhibit in particular will be one of the most interesting on the fair grounds.
 The woman's department, with its various branches-culinary fine arts and textile fabrics--is always interesting, and special premiums have brought an increased number of exhibitors.
 It is to be expected that, follow ing last years contest for the ban her agricultural county prize, this year more concern will be paid by the county commissioners to this department. As one agricultural ist put it, "The county that wins first prize this year will know that they have been in a fight" Yuma, Cochise, Pima, Yavapai and Mari eopa are all going after it and will have big exhibits at the fair.
 The exhibits for the educational department have been so carefully planned that with but few excep- tions every school district in Ari- zona will represented.
 Of course the speed events on the race track, both horse and au- tomobile, are the principal part of the afternoon program. The auto mobile drivers are some of the best known men in their line in the country, while of the horses en- tered, fully seventy per cent have performed upon the grand circuit.
 The Phoenix board of trade has opened an information bureau con taining lists of several thousand rooms which can be secured at reasonable rates. Visitors to the fair should write or telegraph to Harry Welch, secretary of the or ganization, for reservations. This bureau will be open day and night.
