idea, and I am ready to do my part. The town needs a better lighting sys- tenn, and it might as well have it now as later. I believe in plenty of light It helps business. and it makes a city attractive. and the attractive city is the one that leads"
 It is probable that the commission will take steps in the near future to determine the number of property holders who will favor the installation of the standards. and if the necessary support is obtained, which seems likely at present, the matter will be pushed with all possible dispatch. as it is planned to have both the paving done and the lights installed before - the opening of the territorial fair, and the Los Angeles to Phoenix road race.
 It is probable that cast iron four light standards will be installed, and the commission will recommend lights similar to those already put in before the National Bank of Arizona building. The cost of having a special standard designed, as is customary in larger cities. will be avoided by the use of an attractive stock design.

been presented by the Arizona Title and Abstract company to do the same work for S2G0. On motion the council deferred action until bids are prepared by the companies wanting to under take the work When the bids are presented the work will go to the low est bidder.
 On motion. it was ordered not to change the position of the grade mon UmeutS Co the side of the street, but to leave them in the center The council also decided to have three four-lisht standards. similar to those in use before the National Bank of Arizona building. placed before the city hall on Washington street. one on the east side Of the square and one on the west Although the paving commission advocates the use of four standards to each side of the square in the districts in which It is planned to install the lights. the council con sidered three a sufficient number.
 The matter of placing an arc lamp at the corner of Fourth street and Polk was brought up again. the ob- jection being raised by Councilman Cisney that the placing of a light at this corner would spoil the plan which the council originally planned to fol- low in its arrangement of ares. Coun- cilman McElroy took the position that. regardless of the councils plan. the corner was dark and would re- main so until an arc was put up. The need of a lamp at this corner has been particularly urged by the physi- clans and others who pass the corner frequently at night in going to and from the hospital The fact that 90 canal runs along before the hospital is an additional reason for putting up a light. More than one pedestrian has fallen itnO the canal on a dark highland Councilman McElrOy urged that some action be taken. The mat ter was referred to a committee. The council adjourned at a late hour. the members thoroughly tired with their three evenings of hard work, to meet again on June 21.

o'clock Monday evening. X unani- nous report or good and hoepitable treatment in the progressive city has been given by the occupants of the ear. who unite in declaring the mem bors of the Commercial club good fellows and royal entertainers.
 Impatient to begin the last lap of their dash to Phoenix. the Pathfinders left Yuma at S:35 the same evening The hardest part of the entire trip was between Yuma and Middle Wells, and the party lost the road mum ber of times, notwithstanding the services of guide. who was well acquainted with the twinings and twistings of the difficult road. Al 1 o'clock in the morning the ear reached the North Star mine. and Lawrence gave a humorous account of an experience the party had there there.
 "There was some confusion about the direction we ought to follow. and matters were made worse when we were given three directions. two by white men. and the other by a heather Chince. We withdrew from the mine and talked over these muI- hilarious advices. and finally couclud- ed to follow the road pointed out by the Chinaman. As a result we ar rived in Phoenix without further mis- hap"
 The car arrived at Agua Caliente at o'clock yesterday morning. after spending about six hours on the road from the North Star mine. and after breakfast they left town at S:3O for Phoenix The distance to the capital city was covered in exactly 4 hours and minutes. the car pulling up before tine Ford hotel at 12:22. This is the best time that has ever been made between Agua Calientc ana Phoenix. says Lawrence, and in support of his assertion and claim of establishing. a record. he said last night that the Examiner would give a cup to the car that beats that time. He says that the car that wins the cup will deserve it,

Three miles from the e and M ranch the Packard station of the international railways was reached. At this point the Pathfinder car took to the railroad track Packard is about 20 miles from Fl Centro. but only a short run was allowed on the tracks. as the car was stopped by a burned-out bridge, the work of the inSurrectos.
 A detour of d mile to the left was necessary before the deep sands could be negotiated, the car finally reaching the tracks again at Sas- bania. which is nine and tenth miles from Packard. About four miles beyond this point. and while still six and nine-tenths miles out from Fl Centro. the drivers reached Cocopa. and it was here that the most eX- citing event of the entire trip oc- cured.
 At Cocopa the Pathfinder party had their first experience of forming a target for an enemy's bullets. They were driving quietly along at q speed of thirty miles. or thereabouts' when two shots were fired by some soldiers in the vicinity. whether in surrectos or regulars the members of the party did not stay tO learn. About the time the reports of the guns re- verberated over the plain, they van ished in q cloud of dust, and Law renee positively stated yesterday that the reason the second bullet did not find the car was because it couldn't catch up The first one struck the car, as a hole still attests. and by the time the second was fired the needle showed sixty miles an hour. and the Pathfinders were seeking safety in flight. After proceeding a safe and reasonable distance from the field the occupants of the car took reckoning of their losses, and were glad to learn there were no dead or wounded.
 After this incident there was little of interest until Andrade. California, was reached At this point the mo- torists received instructions from the customs officers concerning the route and shot out of the town on the rail road ties at about 50 miles an hour They had probably gone one-half mile when the left rear tire blow off The car skidded about five wards. then swerved directly across the tracks It was found on eXamina- tion that the rim was badly bent. This happened about noon, on Mon Jlay. The. mechanics worked about one hour in broiling sun, and fin ally decided. in view of their blistered skin. that it would be polite to wait until sundown before attempting tO get the car out of its mire. Going to work again at o'clock the tire was fitted in twenty minutes. turned back on the track. and the party on its way again to Hanlon Junction.
 At this stage of the journey Chinaman probably saved the party from a collision with the Los Ange- les limited. They started down the main line of the Southern Pacific, when the Chinaman ran wildly to- ward the car. waving his arms. and making frantic gesticulatiOns. His trouble was not ascertained until some time had been lost in parlying when it was learned that a fast train was three minutes behind. The car was run on siding. and the train went by The Pathfinder trailed it into Yuma. reaching the city at 6

night. Tt has been reported that the Examiner pathfinder Cadillac was lost on the desert. I repudiate this statement. with another statement Co the effect that this same pathfinder ear came from Los Angeles to Phoenix over the new proposed route of the Los Angeles Phoenix race faster than any other mammal, machine has ever negotiated the same route"
 one feature of the double run made from the coast to Phoenix by the F. M. F. and Cadillac cars. both thirtys. is that the mileage reported by the drivers checked to a TT as Lawrence said. his mileage not differ ing a tenth of mile from that re- ported by La Cdsse and HerriCk. The length of the proposed route for the next race Is 55o miles from Los An Eeles to Phoenix.
