ARIZONA SILVER SERVICE MEETS
 WITH APPROVAL

Hundreds of people crowded around the windows of the Hanny Clothing company last night. and admired the beautiful silver service to be presented fo the battleship Arizona. by the people of this state.
 It is doubtful if a more beautiful dis play of art and workmanship has been seen in this state for years. Everyone who took a look at the service admired it, and had something to say of its beauty.
 There are two large punch bowls, candle sticks, goblets, cigar and tobacco receptacles, plates, trays, spoons, forks and everything that goes to make a re- spectacle silver service. Upon every one of the larger pieces, some Arizona scene has been engraved. There is a picture of the statehouse, the Roosevelt dam, desert scenes, pie lures of old ruins, roundup scenes, and several reproductions of the Megargee | pictures hanging at the state house. | The design and workmanship is beau | tiful in the extreme Every piece Is wrought with some symbol of Arizona | The larger pieces carry the name of | Arizona" and upon one bowl, an in- l scription states that the service was | presented to the battleship Arizona by | the people of this state.
 The service will be on exhibition fol
 several days in Arizona, during which
 time, the committee in charge of the git will make an endeavor to collect
 money to pay for it. There is stil considerable deficit in the money tC
 be raised. and it is hoped that enough
 cash will be raised here to wipe out
 the debt.

CARNIVAL. COMING
 FUR STATE FAIR

The state fair this year will be characterized by the presentation for the first time in this section, of the Rice and Wortham water circus. a unique attraction, which has been creating quite a sensation in those parts of the country where it has already been shown. The water circus gives something new in the way of amusement, offering as it does. a real circus where all of the acts take place in the water and for
 which a huge tank containing over
 100000 gallons of real honest-to-
 godness water is used, and in which troupe of living mermaids display
 their aquatic prowess in all sorts of natatorial stunts and capers.
 The water show carries a large
 troupe of lady and gentlemen swim
 mers and divers, including water
 clowns and pantominists, trick and fancy divers and high divers of all sexes and nationalities. Water walk ing, log rolling, dancing in the water
 and other wondrous feats are all in cuded in the promises of the press agent. who also tells us that there will be a facsimile or tle great water
 ballet which once attracted thousands to the New York Hippodrome. This is the world renowned "Neptune's
 Daughter which. at the bidding of
 the father of the waters, a troupe of
 Shapely water nymphs. disappear be- heath the water of the huge tank never more to reappear. There are | too many features of the water circus to give them all mention here, but we will not omit to refer tc Dare | Devil Knight. who, it is said, will l give us one of the most thrilling and | seen here. Dare Devil Knight rides down a steep incline on a bicycle,
 and leaving the chute he scars 1 through space and throwing the wheel from him. dives head foremost into the water making a leap of nearly l forty feet from the edge of the chute
 to the tank
 There is Captain Joe F1orey, in his | 10G-f dive for life, and Irene Les | lie, in her acro0atic dives, as well as a | long list of other versatile water l performers.
 i The water show will be only one
 of the features at the state fair earn | ival and we must include the big | trained wild animal arena with it's big menagerie of performing wild l beasts, the revelation show with it's
 mysterious features and it's Illusion
 ary tale of Pharaoah's daughter and the finding of Moses in the Bull Bushes on the banks of the far away i Nile. A freak and wonder museum,
 a Crystal Tangle, a trip in a subma-
 rine, an athletic show, a merry go
 round, ferris wheel, a troupe of midgets from the Philippine Islands 1 and a whole regiment of freaks of
 nature are 8 few of the features
 which are promised to the amuse- ment lovers of Arizona.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
 ID ADOPT UNIFORM

The boys making up the high school student body are going to adopt a uni form. It is not their aim to put the clothing merchant out of business, but in the interests of economy and school spirit, it was decided at a mass meet ing held Saturday to all dress alike.
 The subject has been under consider ation for some time. In fact it was ad- vanced last year, but no definite action was taken This year several live wires got behind the project, and pushed it through to success, or rather to that point where it was decided to adopt the uniform garment.
 The argument advanced by those in favor of the measure, was that it would not only be cheaper but it would serve to wipe out the distinction between those boys who are plentifully blessed with worldly goods and those who can not afford more than one suit a year.
 It was an easy matter to get the boys to adopt the idea of the uniform, but it was a hard matter to get any agreement on what the uniform was to consist of. All sorts of ideas were presented. One youngster presented a drawing carrying his idea of an appro- i priate uniform. It showed a high school i boy equipped in regulation overalls, ! jumper and high cowboy boots, big ! SOmDrero and red handkerchief around i tn eneck. The six shooter was omitted. Another one, having read Tom Brown ! at Rugby. was for the Eton collar 1 high silk hat, short waistcoat and long trousers. Still another was for the 1 French smOck and flat cap.
 Pidge Pinney, always on the lookout ! for the picturesque, suggested that the army uniform be adopted, with leather puttees, all same as army officers. He also suggested that a different colored stripe be run down the trousers leg to distinguish the different classes, as green for the Freshmen, pink for the Sophomores, Yellow for the Juniors, and blue for the Seniors. This did not
 meet with approval all agreeing that it would be too expensive, and then | too, they might be taken up for de-
 serters from the army. Another argu- | ment against the uniform was that it
 might tend to foster a military spirit,
 which is against the principles of the l school.
 Captain Frank Luke of the high school football team finally hit the happy medium. He adopted Pinney's
 olive drab shirt, but substituted cor | duroys for the military brooches. This
 met with instant approval and as soon as the necessary equipment can be ob-
 tained all school lads will appear at school equipped with olive drab flannel
 shirt and corduroy trousers.

ADMITS FORGERY;
 HELD FUR TRIAL

TEMPE, Oct. S.-W. C. Chaffett, who pleaded guilty Saturday to a charge of forgery, has been bound over to the Superior court for trial by Justice Aus tin.
 Chaffett came to Tempe Friday and after purchasing a quantity of goods at the Busy Corner and in payment therefor offered check signed with the name of T. s. Maloney, a contrac- tor working on the canal some miles west of here. Suspecting that the check might be a forgery, A. $. Herzberg, the store manager told Chaffett that he didn't have the money on hand to cash the check at that time and to come back later. Meanwhile Maloney was communicated with, and it was as certained that the check was a forged one, and Chaffett, who returned few hours later to get the money found the arms of the law waiting for him.
 An interesting feature of the arrest was the fact that at the very time Chaffett was attempting to cash the check here, the sheriff's office had a warrant for his arrest charging him with embeZzlement. the charge grow ing out of his former business dealings with Maloney.
