RILEY PATTON IS
 INFERRED WITH HoNoRS
CFrom Thursdays Daily.)

The remains of the late Riley Pat ton, who was accidentally electro cuted in the United Verde mine, the city yesterday from Jerome, and interment was made in the Knights of Pythias cemetery. The respect ex- tended the deceased in the funeral cOrtege to the depot at Jerome was beautiful tribute to his memory, fully 1000 people following the body to the train. It was one of the largest funerals ever held in that city. On the arrival of the train in this city, the body was taken to the cemetery for burial, the pallbearers, who came from Jerome. were L. M. Coleman, c. F.. Hughes, John Opman, John Zivokovich, Chas P. Jolly and Ed. KOvaeovieh. The rites of the Knights of Pythias were extended over the grave, ChacellOr Commander l.. M. Coleman officiating, while the committal service was extended by Rev. O. M. Andrews of the Method st church of Jerome.
 Among the mourning relatives were his wife and three children, a brother, Joseph Patton, his wife and family, and Mir. and Mrs. George Pruett, the latter a sister. c. T. Lynch and J. w. Hubbard, with many others, were also of the funeral party.
 MT. Patton met his death while walking along the 300 foot drift of the United Verde mine, his wet cloth ing coming in contact with the trol- ley wire and the motor ear at the same time. A current, estimated at 240 volts, passed through his should CT, and death was instantaneous. Elf forts to resuseitate him proved hope less, and he never showed the slight est symptoms of recovering.
 MT. Patton was formerly a resid- dent of this city, and was well known to many as a splendid young man. In has home town he was admired and had not an enemy. His loss is deep ly deplOred and his bereaved relatives have the sympathy of all.

At the regular monthly meeting of the City Council. on Monday evening, the question of grading South Monte zuma street. between Aubrey and Walker, was taken up for considera- tion and discussed. It was decided to establish a grade and file a pro- file with the City Clerk. and the City Engineer was ordered to proceed with the survey.

 A delegation from the Chamber of Commerce. headed by President Fred ericks, made an appeal to the city to bear the expense of piping water to the Summer Colony. It was shown that the membership of that body rep resented two-thirds of the taxable property of the city. and as the Sum mer Colony would inure to the benefit of every property owner in Prescott. it was just that all should bear their proportion of the expense of this i'm provement. especially the nonresident property owners. The matter was de ferred for action until the following evening. a report of which appears elsewhere.

PRESCOTT PEERLESS
 AS CONVENTION CITY
Many Organizations and Associations Arranging For Annual Meetings
 Here Coming Summer

teachers institute of Northern Ari- zona will meet in Prescott, the city being selected at the last meeting held in Flagstaff. Over 15O edu- cators will be in attendance at the lowest estimate.
 It is practically assured from re- cent canvass made of all cities that the next convention of the Arizona Bankers Association will deliberate for three days in Prescott. Announce ment will be made to this effect in the next few days when the execu- tive committee meets to take defin- ite action.
 Before the year passes it is said the Grand Lodge of Masons of Ari- zona will be called to meet in this city. The beautiful temple of Aztlan lodge is admired among the frater- nity and many will come if for no other reason than to inspect the structure.
 Governor R. E. Sloan will probably move his executive offices to the city, his home, for at least three months this summer, advices to this effect being received a few days ago. Secretary Geo. U. Young a few days ago also stated that he will come to reside at his mining camp, in the Sierra Prietta noun tains. few miles east of the city
 The Summer Colony is now assured of harboring a great number of wis itors, in fact, it is believed, from recent advices received from Phoe nix alone, the spacious retreat will be fully occupied.
 With private homes entertaining friends, the season promises to be the most suspicious in the history of this city. Already the exodus from the south has started, and an other pleasing feature is that many eastern people are beginning to ar rive.

(From Saturdays Daily.)

Prescott as convention city IS fast assuming such favored regard as to give it preference over all other Arizona communities. Whether in mid-winter or the sultry glow of summer its climatic attractions are pronounced ideal, while in aceOmmO- dations for the hundreds to view the fascinating scenery that no other sec tion of Arizona can claim are peer less. In harmony with its location and accomodations for any number of organized bodies, fraternal, poli- tical or social this year will signalize the coming of the greatest number of people in the history of the city.
 Among the organizations coming are the Knights of Columbus, who will gather in state council on June r and IS. On this occasion it is expected that the minimum attend anee will reach close to one thousand people mainly those affiliated with the organization.
 During the same month. the Royal Arch Chapter of Masons of Arizona will meet and it is expected that many prominent AriZonans will attend.
 Beginning early in June the stu dents of the University of Arizona, estimated at twenty-five will arrive to take a course of practical instruct ion in the Summer Mining School. They will remain until August. Prof. Holman, territorial geologist, and di- rector of the mining department with Prof. Rice, mining instructor of the University and several friends will accompany the delegation.
 Early i" the fall, possibly in OetO- ber. the Territorial Good Roads As sociation will meet here and there is every indication from the deep in- terest throughout the territory on this movement large number of representative men will be here. T. G. Norris, president, is at present in the east and after his return to Prescott will begin the campaign in the interest of this convention,
 At a date to be selected later, the Prescott Auto Club will announce an entertainment program for all similar organizations throughout the territory to participate in. when it i- expected several hundred machines will be congregated to take trips ta the Verde Valley, over the territorial highway to Humboldt, around the famous 45-mile loop and last, but not least a trip to the Grand Canyon over the new Ash Fork route.
 Reese NJ. Ling, the energetic presi- dent of the University of Michigan Alumni Association of Arizona, yes terday stated that he is arranging to call that body together in this city during the summer, and from the large number of Arizona attorneys who, were graduated from the above institution the occasion promises to be a memorable one.
 President Ling will initiate the movement during the next few days and is confident of bringing together on the first occasion large repre- sentation.
 Possibly in August, the tri-county
