 San Diego riders are strong for starting the race in Los Angeles-in which regard they differ most ma = terially from their auto brothers. The start in L. A. and the main checking station in San Diego means additional money for the purses, and the younger chaps see this, where their daddies are overlooking a. good safe bet. It is the San Diego bunch that is trying to induce Orange county's stand-pat supervisors to get out of the way of progress, and this is a matter which pleases the local promoters much. Los Angeles is waking up to the necessity of work, and with the news that the live Phoenix club has already asked

MULL|GAN AND
 CIVIC CENTER
ROtarians Discuss the City Beautiful While Engaged in Treating Trincano's Elegant Repast in the Manner It Deserved

The meeting last night of the Phoenix Rotary club was unusual in many respects. At seven o'clock, forty men gathered around the ta- bles at the Adams hotel and a mulli- gan, which as some one present said, "The like of which mulligan no better was ever made" was disposed of in right good fashion. The rotar- cellence of the mulligan was A E. TrincanO. It was served in large bowls from a gigantic copper boiler. At once there has come into undis- puted prominence a chef whose fame will long follow him. The birds were secured by the rotary nimrods, Hanny and Pinney, and the enjoy ably cool and roomy dining room of the hotel was fixed on purpose.
 The meeting proved to be one of the best of the season as much earn est discussion was had upon the sub ject of the evening Public Welfare of Phoenix" J. s. Griffen presided. The first speaker was A. C. Luhrs, who in a forcible and indicated careful study on a civic center, on the Center street school block. He urged that action should be taken by the citizens looking to- ward the disposal of the city hall and the county court house grounds, and the construction of a combined county and city hall on the school grounds, adding building of beauty to Phoenix, giving adequate quarters for the administration of city and county affairs and perhaps including municipal convention hall, some thing badly needed.
 The second speaker was Architect L. M. Fitzhugh. who also spoke of the advisability of the proposed civic center. Attention was called to the designs possible that would give administrative room for the city and for the county. prepared to include municipal hall.
 The chairman then called attention to the presence of J. C. Adams. pro- prietor of the hotel, who had always taken great interest in public i'm 1 provements. MT. Adams spoke of the desirability of public parks and o1 the possibility of making a park oi the south end of the fair grounds.
 Rev. Claude C. Jones made a few apt remarks, as did also Dr. Bried of the Indian school, Greenberry Bright of the James A Dick Co. MT Lowenthal. U. S immigration inspector, and J. B. Finlay, an E Paso rotarian. Chef Trincano tolC one of his inimitable stories.

 He entered Zulu Belle" in the 2:07 and 2:O4 paces, and says he will have her keyed up to the 2:O3 notch by the time the Arizona state fair opens.

 He writes as follows: T may be able to improve on the mares old record so you can make better one for next year. l expect her to at least step in '2:03. Yes, I am a walking advertise ment for the Arizona state fair and shall do my part to make it a success.
