 "Oh. weel, I couldn't tell to a bit. was the reply. T never was much good at remembering dates. but 'e's nobbut a puppy"
 On the other hand it was main taired that the animal in question was very. very old fashioned puppy. and the magistrate inflicted the usual fine

EASTERN CAPITAL
 COMES 10 PHOENIX

An event which will be of consid- erable interest to all who are interest ed in local financial affairs is the re cent placing of a large loan in this city by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. This loan is for $2S.OoO and was placed on Wash ington street business property for a period of five years.
 Last spring the same company placed Ia loan for $1S,5OO on business build ing on Adams street, which was also made for a term of years. In each instance the loan bears interests at six per cent.
 When the Equitable accepts Phoenix real estate as a basis for it's loans there is mo question as to the stability of that class of property. And the fur ther fact that these loans were made at six per cent shows that eastern capi- tai is strongly inclined to look with extreme favor upon this section as a profitable field for investment.
