THOMAS WOODS IS

Thomas Woods. night watchman at Der of the Moose lodge. better known as Tommy" died early yesterda! morning at the Sisters hospital, where he had been removed the day before a victim of tuberculosis. Ths remains were removed to the J. T. Whitney undertaking parlors, where they will be held pending funeral ar engagements.
 Of Tommy Woods very little was known in this city. He had at one time been employed as miner at Bisoee and was member of the Min CTS union in that city. He had also been a member at one time of the Pythan and Odd Fellows lodges. but lis membership lapsed He however, retained his membership in the Loyal Order of Moose until the time of his death

provide that defense. All over the country the business men are coming forward and not only offering to allow their men to serve without loss of time for the summer training period, but are encouraging their men to en- list. offering inducements to those who will take this necessary. training. Some of the larger corpora tions of this state. outside Phoenix. are doing the same thing.
 Previous to this year there has been more or less labor opposition to the National Guard but the union man whG today opposes enlistment in the guard is acting in direct opposition to the American Federation of Labor. At the recent convention at San Francis co the National Guard organization and the Dick bill were indorsed by rc solution Of the convention. The la hor leaders realize that it is better to be prepared to fight for the liberties of their own country. than, like Bel cium, to fight for some one else.
 A COIllll1lllte Ol OlllCtIS WdS dp- pointed 10 make arrangements for visiting the business men of Phoenix to ask for support of the National Guard not financial support, but men. Many of the young men of every com munitv lack the stick to- -itfveness that it takes to make guardsman. some of these young men enlist and then fall out because they lack the qualities that it requires for a soldier The men who do this in the guard will do if in business. It takes a real man to make real guardsman and the quail tiles that make for success in the guard are the same qualities that are required in civil life. The guard does net want quitters, fl has no use for them, but if does want real men and hoyG that have the back bone to take ol the obligation and stay with it. Many of the young business men of Tucson are enthusiastic guardsmen who stay with the game. If the busi- ress men of Phoenix cannot give the timc that others give they can en- courage their employees to enlist and make it worth their while to enlist.

Unless Employers Permit and Encourage Young Men to Enlist, Local Or ganizations Will be Aban- doned, Says Harris

At 2 meeting at the Armory last night the National Guard officers met to discuss the local situation and see if some scheme could be devised to save the National Guard organization of Phoenix Due to the local apathy the Phoenix companies are not secur- ing enlistments and the adjutant gen. eral informed the Phoenix officers that if conditions did not improve. Phoenix will lose it's local organizations.
 The difficulties of the local organi- zations were very fully discussed and the officers feel that the neglect of the business organizations of the city to support the guard are primarily re- sponsible for present conditions. Re peated promises of support have been mace during the past few years, none of which have been carried out The Phoenix companies were compelled to incur a debt of s2.500 to put the build ing in shape for an armory that they occupy at the present time. and this Was Gcne only after promise of if nancial support by the chamber of commerce. No outside financial sup port has been received up to the pres cnt time and the companies are with out funds as all their allowances are being used to meet these obligations.
 Company commanders state that not only do the merchants and employers of Phoenix not encourage enlistments in tine guard, but that men who do en- list have lost their positions because of the time they required for service. If this is true it is a deplorable con- diticn and compares very unfavorably with the whole hearted support given by the business men of Tucson, Flag staff and Yuma.

INTEREST GROWS IN

Carnival Trucks Carry Banners About
 Town; Rotary Club Gives Real Support to Worthy Project.

Big carnival wagons covered wit.i banners were parading yesterday, ad- vertising the forthcoming motorcycle race and the equally important fair md carnival. which will open the week following the motorcycle race
 These big banners attracted a lot of attention for more than one req son. The handsome, well fed horses that were drawing the wagons were recognized as among the winners in the heavy draught classes in the re- cent Arizona State fair. Further, the wagons themselves were newly paint ed, spick and span, fit to be driven III any circus parade on earth. Ther there were the signs. painted in sen sational colors, they drew attention to the devices upon them.

 Tom Talks to Rotarians.
 Interest in the carnival and motor cycle races was pretty well demon strated yesterday at the weekly lunch con of the Rotary club. Secretary Tom NJ brennan of Phoenix Lodge No. 70S. Loyal Order of Moose, was among the guests of the club for the luncheon, and as such was accorded an opportunity to deliver a shCrt ad- dress upon the coming Moose events. MT. brennan told of the work that is being done to secure for Phoenix the proposed Million Dollar Moose sanitarium, and how the proceeds of both the motorcycle race and the car nival will be devoted to this worthy purpose His remarks were received with every mark of attention and ap- probation
 In like manner when the business excursion to Ajo was up, it was found that the proposed date conflicted with the motorcycle race. and the commit tee was instructed by the club that Ihoenix Rotar" could not go on that date to Aio preferring to remain at home and help boost the worthy ob- jects of the Moose.
 These few incidents show how the wind blows with reference to the com ing Moose events as far as Phoenix is concerned. Then there is the Queen contest to be remembered also The candidates are already at work and their names will be announced shortly. The girls | at present are busily selling tickets | for the coming Moose dance next 1 week, because every ticket they sell l means 200 votes. More prizes are be- l ing obtained every day, so that every candidate will get a goodly bundle 1 of valuable presents whether she wins the capital prize and the queenshir l or not.

HEARSE COT 0N !. M|LuKEN's NERVE
Yuma Citizen Objected to Its Con
 tnuous Presence.

Only in the event of the death of be permitted to stand in front of the residence of Edward K. Milli- ken. of Yuma The sight of the dead wagon" before his door so affected Miliken's peace of mind that he took the matter into court and while the case was pending the judge out of pity issued a restraining or der denying the owner of the hearse the right to halt it in the immediate vicinity of the Milliken home.
 During the recent floods in Yuma one of the stables was washed away and the owner purchased property adjoining the Milliken place. Every time Milliken stepped outside or pushed the window curtains aside he saw the wagon. Although his busi- ness in life is court reporting he is temperamental. The hearse develop ed his imagination, but that is the one thing not required in covering court proceedings verbatim.
 His nerves finally were in such a state that there was nothing else to it, he had to resort to the law of the land.
 No objections were offered by Milli- ken for the erection of the stable. That was a detail. He only lifted his trembling hands in holy horror and pleaded that the hearse be re- moved once and for all
 Judge Baxter was disqualified and
