kept shrieking and whistling to her
children to take to the tall grass. The
hawk had SO much to attend to in de-

HOLD ILLINOIS
 PICNIC MARCH 8
Officers of Society Hold Meeting and Decide Upon New Date for Annual Gathering Near the Hier- ogIyphic Rocks

Yesterday the officers of the Hi nois society held a meeting to decide on the date of the Illinois picnic, which owing to the indictment wealth CT on February 22, it was necessary to postpone.
 This Illinois picnic has become quite an annual event and the off cers. who are desirOus of trying to make this year a record breaker in attendance, have decided to postpone the picnic until Saturday, March 8, at the same place as previously an nounced. the HierOglyphic Rocks about six and a half miles south of Phoenix.
 Much work has already been done by the various committees to make of this picnic thorough success. The program will be given as previously outlined, and the sports promised will contain number of interesting sur prises which have been prepared by Judge Phillips and MT. Marks.
 The committee on arrangements earnestly request that all Illinoisans tell their friends of this change of date and set aside this day for a general reunion and good time by the people who hail from Illinois.

.F0R SAFETY OF

Council Considers Ordin- ance Restricting Use of InfIammable Oils ill Dry Cleaning; Railroads Must Use Crossing Signals

An ordinance licensing the busi- ness of dry cleaners in the city of Phoenix and providing for he stor- age of gasoline. naptha, benEine and all other volatile oils used in such business" was read in the common council last night and refarre1 to committee of the whole Tl2 dis cussion of several weeks was brought to an end. It has been in controversy for some time for and against pro viding for the safety of all cleaning establishments using inflanma5i9 fluids to remove grease and grime from clothing by city ordinance. and last night such provision Was made. The regulation provides that any one using as much as or more than two quarts of gasoline or other volatile liuuid clnans CT be known as a "drY cleaner" and become subject to the provisions of the ordinance. Further than that, the ordinance prop poses tc fix a fee for inspection of all pre- misses on winch dry cleaning IS done. that no such business shall be con- ducted n house where pcup'e sleep or that no one shall sleep Tn dry cleaners shops, that proper building requirements and ventilation rules be enforced on all places where such business is conducted, that pro- per precautions be taken with stor- age of fluids, that all washing be done in liquid tight machines and that places of such business be inspected every six months. Pretty compre- hensive. that regulation, and likely to cause some innovations in the cleaning business if it is passed.

|DLERS' TENNIS
 CUP ID HORRELL
He Wins it from Burton Green; With Green He Holds Doubles Trophy
 and With Selma Goldberg in Mixed Doubles Finals

After having simmered down to Green and Horrell. champions at doubles, the pair also found them selves pitted in the singles, which went to Horren after a splendid match on the Country club courts.
 The best tennis tournament the club ever pulled off, best in the way it was supported and best because Phoeni- clans this time beat out Prescott for the honors-that is the verdict. In the clean ups yesterday Green and Hinderer fought out their tie of the evening before when the match was stopped by darkness with each hay ing won set. With the game score SO-Iove against him and the set score 5-2 likewise, Green pulled out and took the final set 10-S. The score for this match then stood 4-6, GA, 1O-S in favor of Green Horren beat Green in the finals by GO. 6-1 and 6-2.
 All the matches were corkers. Play CTS were on their mettle and not a chance escaped them. All the matches were we'll played and well conducted, being scheduled and run off promptly.
 Early in the morning Mrs. Tweed and H. B. ttha won a match from Florence R..tlett and Dwight B. Heard 4-6. 6-4 and 7-5. This left the mixed doubles in the afternoon between Selma Goldberg and w. A. HorreH and Burton Green and Doro- thy Packard. which went to the for mer 6-3. 6-3: and the winners against Hinderer and Mrs. Linney. who lost 6-3 and 6-4
 There remains nothins to fight out but the mixed doubles. In mems dou- bles HOrreIl and Green are cham pions and of the latter pair Horren holds the singles cup. Probably on Saturday next the remainder of the mixed matches will be played off. Mrs Kingsbury and Jack Ainsworth play Mrs Tweed and Mir. Atha and the winners go against Selma Gold berg and W. A. Horren. who are past the semi-finals stage.

COUNCIL HAS
 BUSY SESSION
Inventor Wants Ordinance Changed; Light Stand ards No More as Hitch ing Posts; Some More Waste Water

A large amount of small business important only as it affects a few people in each instance was ground out last night in the session of the city council Beside the main busi ness which is covered elsewhere the following matters were brought up. Inventor Allen. who has built a machine for making concrete sewer pipe asked that the ordinance making it necessary to connect houses with the sewer system by means of vitri- fled or iron pipe be amended so as to allow househOlders to make use of his product The matter was re ferred to the committee of the whole
 Horses will no longer rejoice in be- ing connected with the ornamental light standards. At least not after the city attorney has drawn the or dinance suggested last night hy Al derman Warren, and it has been passed It has every assurance cf success.
 As usual the waste water question was before the council. T. J. Pres colt complained of the presence of a small ocean at the end of the paving on South First avenue near the gas works, and the street commissioner was instructed to connect the sub merged region with the sewer in that locality. The city engineer is con- tinually mp against the waste water question. It has been proposed to cut out the irrigating ditches in town and use city water for all lawns. trees and shrubbery, but Supeerin tendent Thompson last night showed that the water plant cannot be put in shape to supply liquid for irriga- tiOn inside of a years time.
 In spite of the kick of Marshal Moore against the granting of so many hack and automobile stands in the business district, such a license was given to one w. J. Milsap, who will station his auto m front of II West Washington street.
 Policeman Wilkerson's appointment was confirmed.
 Although there is little apparent need of close checking in the city en- gineers department, an ordinance was passed making it necessary for that officer to report his time and his fceG all to the council.
