SENATOR SMITH
TO CELEBRATE
HIS BIRTHDAY

In most of the Parliaments of
America and Europe the well-known
Smith family is represented, and in
the United States Senate there are no
less than five of the clan. Not the
least among them is Marcus Aurelius
Smith, called Mark, for short, who
represents the State of Arizona. For
nearly a score of years, as a voteless
delegate from the southwestern terri
tory, Senator Smith labored to make
Arizona a state, and, when success
crowned his long efforts, a grateful
people promptly sent him back to
Washington, bedecked in senatorial
toga
Marcus AureIius will celebrate his
sixty-sixth birthday tomorrow. A
farm house near Cynthiana, KY, was
his birthplace, and his youth was
spent in the Blue Grass State. After
graduating from Pennsylvania Univer-
sity, he was admitted to the bar. He
landed in Arizona some thirty-seven
years ago, and made such a hit that
the following year he became a prose-
cutting attorney. In 1886 he was
elected delegate to Congress, and on
the day of his arrival in Washington
began the agitation for Arizona
Statehood that was for years his sole
occupation. He continued as a, dele
gate, except in three sessions of Con-
gress, until the great purpose of his
life was an accomplished fact He
fought tooth and nail against the pro-
ject to combine Arizona and New Mex
leo in one State, and was largely in
strumental in defeating the plan.
Senator Smith is one of the most
popular men in Washington. He was
educated at the same college as
Speaker Champ Clark, and is a great
admirer of the Missouri statesman. AS
Democrat, Senator Marcus Aurelius
blooms large in the affairs of the ad-
| minfstration. His term expires in
1921.

DANCING THURSDAY NIGHT.

In compliance with the order of the
fuel administrator the Colonial ball
room in Fairfield avenue will be closed,
promptly at 10 o'clock each evening
except Saturday, but to make up for
the early closing and to give the pat
rons the usual hours of dancing until
further notice all dances will com
mence at 1880 o'clock. This will be
the hour for beginning Thursday
evening when the usual mid-week
dance will be held instead of after the
basket ball game, and when Murrays
orchestra will play. Dancing will
commence at 1880 and will continue
until 10 o'clock. Poplar prices will
be the rule. This will give the young
people of the city more than two
hours to enjoy their favorite pastime.
There will be a good time Thursday
evening.

CHICAGO SEEING
HOPE OF RELIEF
IN COMING THAW

Chicago, Jan. 23-Industries in the
Chicago district resumed operations
today after the five day shutdown,
with the problem of fuel still con-
fronting them. Fuel administration
officials warned all consumers that the
most rigid economy in the use Of coal
would be necessary if the factory
wheels were to be kept moving with
out further interruption. Hope was
found in the prediction of the weather
forecaster of warmer weather for to-
night and tomorrow, with some pros
pect of January thaw.
