It is quite likely that Phoenix Is not yearning for any more aviation meets for a while. at least not during the present summer, whatever might be the demand later. But just to keep the people advised of their opportunities the following letter to the beard of trade is printed. It is an offer to bring to this city a star aggregation of professional flyers on liberal terms:

He will take with him a company of from four tO seveI aviat- ors who will fly the recently perfected all-metai Baldwin bi-plane.

Robinson, a well-known flyer from St. Louis; Walter Brookins, formerly with the Wright company; William Evans of Kansas City, who flew over Larned, Kansas, and several very promising young men who are being developed at this time.

ALIENATION SUIT
 WITHOUT FOUNDATION
Court Directs Verdict for Defendant
 in Horne vs. Armstrong.

The Horne, Armstrong litigation is vanishing A few weeks ago Joseph Horne. one of the proprietors' of the Center street nursery filed suit against his partner, John Armstrong for dam ages in the sum of 5000 for the alienation of the affections of the plaintiffs wife Elizabeth Horne who at that time had left the plaintiff and was alleged to be in the company of Armstrong; Tn this complaint. inn proper relationship between Armstrong and Mrs. Horne were alleged and these alleged relations were made the basis of a suit by Horne for a divorce.
 The alienation suit came before Jude Kent on Saturday and after hearing the testimony of the plaintiff the court directed a verdict for the defendant. Tn the divorce suit a mo ton was offered by the defense for temporary alimony. It will be heard later.
 There was never a more sudden shipwreck of domestic happiness than in .this case. Horne and his wife had been lovers in Scotland. Horne who bad travelled pretty much all over the world, arrived in Phoenix about three years ago and soon after, in the company of Armstrong who is a country man, he went into the nursery business.
 Mrs. Horne arrived from Scotland last November and the marriage quickly followed. The series of events leading to the separation and these suits. began within a little more than a month.

If you feel that your education is finished when YOU leave these halls, then at once can failure be prophesied of your future career.
