PREPARE
 F0R BIG SHOW
Order Appoints Committee to Arrange for Annual Production and Accepts Invitation of NeWlyWeds to Banquet

With the appointment last evening a the regular session Of Phoenix Lodge, No 335 B. P. c. Elks. of a com mittee to arrange for the annual show of the order the initial step was taken for putting on some time in March at the Elks theater by the local organi- zation of an entertainment that prom ises to eclipse any previous efforts of the Bills in Phoenix With Paul Ingles, Archibald Reginald Cater Frank COnnelley. l. J Lipsohn and Guy Alsap, as the personnel of the show committe the best that the Elks affords nthe way of impressariOs has been selected and the success Of the show of 1913 is already assured.
 Somehow it leaked out last evening that the mysterious quintette has had it's cinco heads together for several days in anticipation of the ultimate se- lection of the five to undertake the gi- gantic project of furnishing a show that will please all Phoenix, establish new high altitude record for the lodge and incidentally direct a dollar or two into it's coffers. They have out lined something of a tentative plan, but as secrecy is one of the notices of the order, not an inkling of what is to come could be pried loose last evening.
 One thing was pretty definitely an nounced and that was that the show would be put on by local producer It is the opinion of the Elks generally | that when It comes to the very best il would be cutting off the lodges nose to go out of Phoenix for a director. And that means that somebody with d pret- ty good idea of just what the Phoenix amusement loving aggregation wants will be found treading the boards and whipping the best local talent obtain able into shape.
 Just to break the monotony of the work that is in store. it was announced last night that the Newly eds of the Elks lodge will give a banquet to the other members of the order within the next few days The exact date of the banquet and the place of holding will be decided upon at the next meeting Incidentally Sid Osborn wno in the daytime is secretary of. state, William Hart and Bert Barr, all newly weds comprise the committee which will have the affair in charge.
 The applications of James J Keene and D. s. Horrall were acted upon favorably fast evening by the member ship committee and they will be ini- tiated at the next meeting

BR0WN--CURRY
 MEETING SOON
Noted Evangelists Will Open Protracted Meeting of Two MethOdisms at Central Church Wit h Sermon Sunday Night

In order that there may be no con- fusion in the minds of the people with regard to the coming evangel- iStic services at Central Methodist Church South. the announcement was made yesterday that the name of the preacher who is to take leading part in the meeting is John E. Brown and he halls from Siloam Springs, Ark. Previous to coming to Phoenix. MT Brown and his assistant Prof. Curry, a musician of great ability conducted a number of satis- factory and successful protracted meetings in California
 Rev. John F. Brown will preach his first sermon on Sunday night and the congregations and member ship of the First Methodist church will join with the Central Methodist church not .only for the Sunday night service. but for every subsequent ser vice that will be conducted by MT. Brown
 While giving the impression of be- ing very young man. the coming evangelist has had long years Of success in his chosen calling He is
 
 rectness, able to trim his argument with such illustrations delivered with such effectiveness as to almost force his hearers to accede to his demands. He is not aSpectacular preacher in the sense that is used with regard to the efforts of many modern evan gelists but is satisfied to stick close to the foundation of the faith of the fathers believing that it is all-suf ficient for even this progressive age.
 He appeals to the hearts and minds of his hearers and does not depend wholly upon sentiment or tears or it's effect He is unequiVOcallY opposed to the modern forms of amusement such as are now more generally en- joyed in the society of the day and his excoriations of these amusements are among some of the pulpit gems of the present day.
 Through all his work he is ably assisted by Prof Curry, who not only sings we'll but has a great talent for organizing and directing chorus chOirs. He has been known to take a gath ering of several hundred people or ganized them into a choir in one night and produced such effective music as to draw immense crowds to not only hear and enjoy the festival of song, but to stay for the sermon of his colleague.

HAYDEN CELEBRATES
 BIRTH OF NEW YEAR
Realistic Representation of Early Day
 Celebrations.

The year of 1912 was fittingly ush-
 cred out ar Hayden amid the blasts of
 the huge whistles of the power plant
 and the ST. eleer and the roar of count
 less fire arms of every description. The evening was given over to a roueing
 wild west dance at the Hayden Hotel
 and a number of other functions in the forms of watch parties in other parts of the town. The wild west dance was a notable success and presented many
 unique and interesting features char acteristic of the pioneer days. Many splendid costumes were worr. and there was no limit to the number. size and variety of guns "toted" to add to the effect of the frontier dress This splen- i did display of shooting irons" seemed to strike no terror to the hearts of
 a trio of bold highwaymen who intrud- ed when festivities were at their best and stuck up" the house. Their feat ! ures concealed by bandana hanker- chiefs, the bad men surprised and dis armed several of our brave officers who happened to be on the floor and then gave their attention to the others of the gathering who stood frozen with
 awe. The whole game was enacted in such realistic style that some who were , rot "on' were little uncertain as to it's real meaning. In the small dining
 room of the hotel were operated the roulette wheel. faro bank, dice, twenty one and other gambling methods com mon to the earlier days. Each of these games was in charge of some pioneer who had been there and knew. This : was one of the distinctive features of the evenings entertainment. Refresh ments were served throughout the ev- ening and splndid music was furnished i by the Hayden orchestra. The dance was conducted by the Hayden Gun l club, the members of which are to be i congratulated on it's notable success.
 On New Years eve MT and Mrs. w. B. Harris entertained several of their l friends at a watch party to see that the i old year passed away with the approp- | rate honorS Cards and other games were played, elegant refreshments were served and resulted in an exceedingly | happy evening for the guests who were
 as follows: MT. and Mrs Harry Sweet, Mir. and Mrs. Drake. MT. and Mrs Browne. Mir. and Mrs. Jackson and MT 1 and Mrs. Raymond.

CEMENT MILL
 SOON ID START
Plant East of Phoenix is Rapidly Being Placed in Shape for Production and Will Soon Turn Out 800 Barrels Daily

Inside of another thirty days, the
 Arizona Portland Cement plant. on
 the Arizona Eastern five miels east
 of Phoenix. will be turning out high
 grade Portland cement at the rate Of
 800 barrels a day. This is the infor- nation given out yesterday by A. c.
 Hulett, one of the promoters of the concern which purcha sed the big cement mill from the government and
 caused it's removal from Roosevelt
 and it's reinstallation near this city. And that he speaks correctly is eVi- denoed from the fact that the new valuable additional equipment ordered several months ago, and which in- cludes new grinding mills and other accessories, have already arrived and are now being installed by a large force of skilled wOrkmen.
 Probably no greater feat has been accomplished by a local concern in recent years than the removal of the big plant which the government erect ed at Roosevelt to manufacture the cement used in the construction of the Roosevelt dam, and its erection upon the site which Tempe suggested i for the occupancy of the company ! For sometime it has been feared that difficulties in the way of securing 1 the necessary limestone and clay had been encountered which were insur- 1 mountable, but all this has been over l come with the finding of fine clay | beds near the present plant and the l location of Quarries out on the Ari l zona Eastern not far from Winkel- man which will afford the necessary ] limestone.
 i Superintendent Allen is directing
 the installation of the new grinding i mills. foundations for which were laid 1 sometime ago in anticipation of the arrival here of the machinery. He 1 has secured the very best skilled la | bor obtainable so that when the plant l is once started it will be found to be 1 in first class order.
 | Phoenix has long waited for the | beginning of the operation of this plant. and coming right at time when an unprecedented building boom | is prophesied particularly in the erec- | tion Of concrete structures, the avail ability of good cement at such close range is certain to mean much from | the constructors standpoint. It is l predicted that the best cement can | be made right at the doors of Phoe-
 nix at just a low a figure as it can ! be manufactured any place. and that !! the builder can secure it at a saving i of practically all the freight charges which now attend the shipment in of this much needed article of building construction.

SANTA CLAUS ON
 RELATED TOUR
Miss Chrissie Gilchrist is Busiest Woman in Phoe- nix Distributing Dona- tions to Adams Christ mas Tree

Miss Chrissie Gilchrist. superinten- dent of the Associated Charities. was the busiest woman in Phoenix yeter- day. The headquarters Of the Associ- ated Charities on the second floor of the city hall building resembled noth- ing so much as a clearing house for Santa Claus. Piled so high that it was something of an acrobatic feat to make ones way around. were packages of provisions, sacks of potatoes. sides of bacon, bags of flour and a dozen and one other commodities which are a necessary adjunct to a well stocked larder. Upon these packages were the names and addresses of mora than 100 of the needy families of Phoenix and the work wasn't more than half com plete.
 The blizzard of things to eat struck the place the first thing yesterday morning when the big drays from the Hotel Adams pulled up at the rear of the city hall and strong arms began carrying the donations which were dis played from the big Christmas tree at the Hotel Adams, up the stairs and in- to the room occupied by Miss Gichrist. And even after several trips had been made. the lobby of the hotel still re- sembled wholesale grocery just after the last train had been unloaded. The days work had made little appreciable difference in the appearance of the floor upon which the tree stood.
 The tree itself. was removed early in the day. In order to accomplish this, the giant of the northern forest was cut up into dozens of sections and piled out on the sidewalk. And before the wagons came to haul the tree away, scores of little newsies had selected the larger portions. made their way mp some back alley and had erected min aure Christmas trees all tor them selves. It seemed more like December 25 than the second day in the new year.
 While the cleaning up was going on al the hotel, Miss Gilchrist was just getting down to the real work connect ed with the entire project It really wasn't a question of how to dispose of the provisions. It was more a matter of figuring out just where the most good could be done with the goods at hand.
 Of course there were toys. too. and these went along with the tnlnSS ID eat. Man home this morning will be celebrating a belated arrival of Santa Claus. where all hope of the good old fellow coming at all this time had been given up days ago. It was an occasion when Miss Gichrist was entitled to sec retly exult and would have brought satisfaction to those who made the dis tribution possible if they could have been privileged to look into some of the homes where the Gichrist Santa Claus appeared yesterday.
