 In addition to the regular routine of business of the lodge the commit tee appointed for the purchase of a piano for the lodge made a partial report and asked to have an addi- tional week in which to make their investigations, which request was granted There was some discussion of the advisability of purchasing a player piano instead of the regular upright model and the committee was instructed to investigate player pianos
 Several of the brother knights who had not been present at the meet ings of the lodge for some time ow- ing to being out of the city for the summer on their vacations, addressed the lodge, and made comparisons be- tween the lodges which they had wis ited in various sections of the coun- try while away, and the contrast seemed to be entirely in favor of Phoenix lodge number two, especially so in two instances where the lodges visited had memberships numbering into thousands
 Brother Stratton, master of the work. stated that he would like to organize several new teams for the rank work, and asked that all of the brother knights who would like to take part in this work in the various ranks, and who would be willing to learn their parts in the work, be | present in the Castle hall Sunday afternoon, October 6th at 2:3O o'clock, for the purpose of organizing | This will be an important meeting On next Friday night, the 11th work will be conferred in the rank of page, and a large attendance is de- 1 sired.

 Brother O'Neil reported to the lodge that regardless of expense he had bought a burro and was in a posi tiop to ride in the burro race if the lodge would appoint him jockey for that day. So by a unanimous vote of the lodge the appointment was affirmed. It is understood that he has engaged Cat enormous cost to himselG Burro Mack to train him from now until the race is run.

THIRST AFTER OPERATION
Sensation After Coming Out O
 Anaesthetc Described.

In the American Magazine a writer describes the sensations he went through when he was operated on for appendicitis. Following is his account of the thirst he suffered when he came out of the anaesthetic. He is talking to his nurse:
 Cant I have drink?
 'Yes, I'll give you drink" And so she does-a teaspoonful of hot water, which I am instructed to swallow slowly.
 It has about as much effect on that tarred and feathered tongue as a drop of dew on a hip rubber boot.
 This is a new occupation waiting for that teaspoonful of hot water, which arrives every half hour. Ones thoughts dwell upon it, and one lis tens eagerly for the nurses step, re- turning; ones mouth opens, in ad-

 It is probable that similar reports will be received from each part of the peach belt. The season now com ing to a close has been an ex- ceptionally favorable one, not only in the matter of fresh fruit shipped di rectly to domestic and eastern mar kets. but as well in that yproduct of the orchards expressed in the can ming industry.
 The inauguration of the canning industry marks a distinct forward step in the intensive utilization of the states products. Only a few years ago the excess peaches represented in this big showing would have been sold for a fractional part of their

 Past Consul J. w. Arnold of this camp was down from Crown King. Arizona, where he has been located for several months. He said that the state head camp would be represent ed at the fair this year and would probably have the Log Cabin" erect ed on the grounds.
