 NO TRACE OF CAR-Despite the fact that he offered a reward of $50 yesterday for the return of his car, and that the police and sheriff's office spent a busy day searching for the machine, A. L. Moore, owner of five passenger Oldsmobile touring car, stolen from First avenue and Roosevelt street on Friday night, had received nc word of his missing property. At first he was inclined to think that some joy riders had taken the machine, but the fact that no trace of it had been found up ti last evening convinces him it was driven away by persons anxious to shake the dust of Phoenix from thell feet
 RIDING ON SIDEWALKS-No less
 than ten boys, and young men, and even girls, have been brought into the police station the past few days
 after being caught in the act of rid ing their bicycles on the sidewalks of the city. In most instances it was first offense and the young people
 were allowed to depart with warn ing One case, however, was re- ported as fragrant in that the of fender had been repeatedly warned
 In this instance bail in the sum ot three dollars was required. When the case was called in police court yesterday afternoon, this defendant failed to appear and his bail was declared forfeited.

STATE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL BAND WILL
 VISIT THIS C|TY

Phoenix people may at date in the near future be visited by the band of the state industrial school for boys and girls at Fort Grant. According to Le- roy A. Ladd, chairman of the commits sion of state institutions, who with other members of the commission re- turned Friday from a visit of inspec- tion to the school, the band which has been organized for three months, is making rapid progress and already is credit to the institution and the state It is the intention of the school, Mr. Ladd states, to make band music a feature of the institution in order that any boy who is trained in that branch will be self-supporting when he leaves the school.
 We are well pleased with the inn provements at the school" said Mr. Ladd yesterday. For the first time the school grounds, under arrange ments made by the commission, have been gone over by A. J. Keen, super intendent of the capitol grounds and | buildings, and a comprehensive plan worked out which will be followed in future improvements. The roadway which approaches the institution is to extend direct to the town of Bonita, two miles distant, and will connect with the road to Wilcox, twenty eight miles away.
 'The commission is planning in ev- cry way possible to make the institu- tlon self-supporting through the use of the agricultural lands of the school and by more complete equipment of the various shops which will supply the needs of the institution to a great ex- tent.
 There are at present at the school 90 boys and 19 girls to whom we are planning to give vocational training. At present they are being given in struction in shoemaking, in music and in agriculture. Soon they will be | taught tailoring and garment making in addition. One hundred sixty acres of land at the school will be planted in crops this season.
 ''The commission went over the high way now being constructed between Tombstone and Bisbee, only four miles of which remain to be completed This is a good highway, with rock founda- 1 tion and caliche surfacing which is much used in southern California on | the best roads.
 The repairs now under way at the auditorium of the Tempe Normal | school are well toward completion" de-
 clared MT. Ladd. Tt is hoped to have
 the auditorium ready for the com
 mencement exercises at the normal in
 May. A new roof is being put in place and the interior walls are being tinted. ' --O
