At the presidents first call for
troops, mllitants took the field with

But the casualties Of the ensuing
campaign were appalling. The re-

combatants were seriously II not

Inevitably spirits dropped. A pickle

HIGH CLASS MARBLE
 AND TILE FROM PETTY

In years past all marble and tile work for the office buildings and re sciences in Phoenix was done by out side contractors. Now this city has a local man, James N. Petty, who makes a speciality of high class mar ble and tile work. Everyone knows that marble and tile work is highly desirable on account of it's sur
 passing durability, and now that Phoenix has a man on the job
 there is no doubt that more and more of this class of work will be specified Petty has been establish
 ed here about two years. and among the many jobs handled in that time are the marble and tile work in the O'Neill building, Korrick's Greater New York Store, the Noll building, the Ford hotel, and the new Bake building. Another speciality of Pet
 tvs is putting in tile floors in the bathrooms of private residences Among his recent contracts was that for the marble in the laVatories Cf the Monroe school illustrated in to-

two members of the firm, are both experienced brick men and not only give their personal attention to their contracts but also to the making and the firing of the bricks made in their yard on south Seventh street Their yard is located about three quarters of d mile south of the Henshaw road, and as they have a ten acre tract, will be able to supply many a million mO:e brick before much of a dent is made in the yard, in fact they aim to carry regular stock of over 1,500,000 brick on hand
 Many samples were selected by the board from the brick furnished for the Monroe school and were sent to Los Angeles, and there subjected 70 severe chemical and pressure tests. The soft" bricks tested out an av- craze of 6 times the requisite hard : ness, while the hard" bricks tested out an average of 19 times the speci- fications.
 While the Monroe school job is the largest single brick contract ever handled here this firm has had many other big jobs, including the new Mesa Gramma. school, the girls dormitory and Industrial Arts build . ing for the Tempe Normal school and the new Buntman and Powers apart ments in this city.

SOUTHWESTERN CEMENT
 FOR MONROE SCHOOL

All of the large amount of cement used in the Monroe street school was furnished by the Southwestern Port land Cement company of Fl Paso, Tex as. Lindley C. Morton, western sales manager of this company lives in
 Phoenix He has made personal in-
 vestsments here, is a member of the
 board of trade, the Phoenix Ad Club and associated with various civic bod
 ies of Phoenix His work. however.
 extends to all parts of the territory.
 In Phoenix their cement known as the
 "El TorO" brand was used in the con-
 struction of many of the principal
 buildings of Phoenix, such as the New
 York Store, Adams Hotel. Salem Ackel
 building the Luhrs building and the
 Pratt-Gilbert building. Throughout
 the state "El Toro" cement has been largely used in various development enterprises by the mines in the con structlon of plants. This same cement is being used exclusively in the con- struction of the Elephant Butte dam one of the largest dams in the world. With cement, like many other outside manufactured articles, Phoenix has become the distributing center of the state, and although the "El TorO' ce- ment is made in Fl Paso it is becom- | ing more or less localized institution | by the location and operation here of manager Morton, one of the best known young business men in the state.

An inter esting item in the exterior finish was the painting of the big metal cornce, which afte.' getting a coat of red lead, two coats of lead and oil paint, was sprinkled with crushed quartz, so that it would harmonize with the finish of the big columns of the portico. This particular feature has been highly cOmplimented.
 Mir Taylor states that this was the largest single painting job eve" handled in Phoenix. requiring services of many painters for a four months $ period. Besides this job, the Art Paint and Paper Store is now com pleting a ten house order for the Southwestern Home Builders. and has many other jobs in hand at this time working a c:ew of ten men regularly.

 PLUMBING AND C0RN|CE

The cornice work, sheet metal work and plumbing in the Monroe school was done by C. R. Dicus of $40 x. Fifth avenue, and the board reports that his work was thorough ly satisfactory in every respect. an interesting feature of it being that it was completed a full thirty days ahead of the time specified. MT Dicus although making a speciality of residence work, has handled the
 plumbing and metal work in several
 well known buildings in Phoenix. no tably the Ford Hotel and the Wash ingtOn hotel His work is always well done, and he gives careful per
 sonal supervision to all jobs entrust-
 ed to his care. Besides the plumb
 ing in the Monroe school which was a big job in itself, the big cor
 nice was also quite a feature, and
 was handled in a strictly first class
 manner.

.DAVEY AND RAu6NER
 SUPPLY COMMON BRICK

In several respects the biggest sin gle contract for the Monroe school was that fo. the common brick, let to the Davey and Hausner firm of brick contractors. Their job called for the furnishing and lawing of the enormous amount of one million and seven thousand brick. Laid end to end with mortar these bricks would make make a string over 1,400 miles long, and loaded into wagons, each with a load of 1000 brick would form procession of ovec five miles in length. In other words there was enough brick furnished for the Mon. roe school by Davey and Hausner alone to erect seventy-two ordinary fiVe-room bungalows.
