ANILERED HERD
ON TO DOUGLAS
More Than 100 Elks and
Friends Will Make Ex-
cursiOn to Smelter City
in Aid of Bazaar
TWO BANDS ENGAGED


Trumpets will blare and drums will
rattle and boom Saturday There
may be an absence of ringed fingers
and belled toes but there will be no
lack Of music wherever they go-they
meaning the members of Bisbee
Lodge No ell p. p. o. T. and their
fellow excursionists to Douglas Sat
urday evening. IL will be the big
noise and a musical noise at that for
the services OF two bands have been
obtained, one by the Bisbee Elks,
the other By the Douglas Elks, &C
cordlng 10 adyiees that have been
received.
Bisbee has engaged the services Of
twenty pieces of the c. Q. Band for
this occasion and has learned that
Douglas will have the cavalry band.
So the Elks will leave Bisbee in style
and on arrival in Douglas march TO
the Elks club house with still more
style insured by the military band
which will lead the Douglas Elks
when the two organizations parade
through Douglas.
viii Parade to Train
Bisbee Elks Monday engaged the
for their excursion TO Douglas on Sat
urday evening on the occasion of the
smoker at which they will be the
guests. This band will play leading
the parade from the Elks home down
through Main street to the train and
viii discourse sweet strains during
the journey.
According TO arrangements the
start will be made from the home at
S O'Clock sharp so that all Elks should
be there before that hour clad with
linen busters and wearing the purple
and white colors of Elkdom.
Train Leaves at $3.50 O'clock
The train will leave at $50 thus
giving business men time to close
their days work and take in the big
doings. And from present indications
they will all he there. They are
signing up well and it appears GER
tain that the party will be well over
the hundred mark besides those ex-
cursionists who are not members of
the lodge but who will take the op-
portunity to spend an evening in the
smelteT city that is offered to them.
The railroad officials state that the
tickets will be good going on the
regular evening train as well as the
special and good returning from Doug
las on the special. Thus any one de-
string to spend an evening in Doug
las and return the same night can
purchase a ticket at half the usual
rate and depart at $50, returning on
the Special.
Get Together Affair
60,
last spring eighty strong. IT brought
about cordially of feeling previous
ly absent, not only between the two
lodges but in business ranks. The re-
turn visit will still further cement the
friendship of these two neighboTs that
have SO much in common and so few
grounds for petty jealousy. The Elks
hope and trust that the coming visit
VIII wipe away the last traces OF such
childish feelings and are therefore the
more anxious to make this trip a big
arair This is the chief reason for
throwing open the doors to all to take
advantage of the train and for the
earnest and urgent request that is
made to every Elk to get out and
join the party.
Douglasites are preparing to show
their hospitality and a big noise. a
jolly time is a certainty for all who
take in the smoker. Bisbee VIII add
TO the program some instrumental
solos and a slight of hand perform
ance that will be a novelty besides
other features without crowding
Douglas which already has outlined
a great program. The Elk who does
not go win have a hard time excus-
ing his delinquency to his fellows.
The watch word has been selected
TITS up to Bisbee; make good" For
the sake of the lodge and the reputa-
ton of the city for doing things pro-
perly the committee is urging all to
live up TO that slogan and to make the
affair one that Bisbee and Douglas
viii both remember long and with
