Tho water supply of the city has
been increased 100000 gallons daily
by the sinking Of two new wells in the
water fields north Of the city, and this
supply may be still further increased
by a half million gallons by the sink
ing Of a third we'll, work on which Ia
now in progress. The first two wells
were finished this week and tests
show daily capacity Of 100000 gall
Ions for one and 100000 gallons for the
other.
The we'll showing the greater capa-
city was sunk to depth of 1872 feet,
into limestone, with a casing depth of
1873 feet. The other we'll has a drill
depth Of 126 feet and casing depth of
1872 feet. The water in the two wells
Is about sixteen feet from the surface.
Both wells were bored for 12-inch
castings.
The third we'll, now in the course of
construction, probably will be COM
pleted in ten or twelve days, and Is ex-
pected to supply fully as much water
as the smaller Of the two wells. The
tnree Wells WILL luCTedSe Inc Capacity
at least 100000 gallons. The wells
have been sunk at the east end Of the
well field, Just to the north Of the old
series Of wells. ...
To Purchase Additional Machinery.
Specifications now are being pre-
pared for machinery the council ex-
poets to install in the water field dur
ing the winter. This equipment will
include q low pressure pump to be
installed at the wells. probably to DO
motor driven, to lift the water from
the new wells to the reservoir. as an
addition to the low pressure pumps at
the pumping station, which now draw
the water to the reservoir from the
wells.
An additional supply main from the
wells to the reservoir also Is in con-
temptation. The new main would
serve to give added capacity and to
safeguard the present main in case Of
a break or flood.

committee member yesterday.
 A district chairman, an Arizona old timer, long a resident of this commun- ity, and who has held political office, cannot be induced to even come into headquarters to receive receipt books and sales material to cover his district This in the face of repeated requests from the central committee.
 The ladies who are working are do- ing excellent work, but the fact that upwards of 200 ladies have been asked to lend their assistance and flatly re- fused to help even in the slightest de- gree puts a damper on the entire situ- ation. This work is a privilege, not an irksome task. Is this gratitude to the men who gave their all in France?
 Crowds Only Want To Be Entertained
 The night meetings are doing much toward waking up the spirit which Phoenix has always heretofore shown. Big crowds are coming out to the grand stand-to be entertained. Often when girl and women workers ap- proach these people, wno have been given a really good show free of charge, and solicit their purchase of a bond, these girls and women are sub mitted to positive rudeness and i'm politeness.
 These things must be weeded out and the spirit of '76 and 1T spread throughout every soul in this city and state if We are to gain our quota. Oth- erwise Arizona and Phoenix will be the 1 shame of the entire United States.

That something different in motion pictures for which you have been wait ing these many weeks is at the Colum- bia theater under the title of ~When a Girl Loves" A story, the locale Of which is Arizona, depicting life in a sreat mining community with lots of action, a new and splendid plot, big
 He' man in the leading role and beau tiful Mrs. Charlie Chaplin (Mildred Harris) playing opposite him-all these things and more are combined in this, Miss Lois Webers first super western production.
 The plot is so different in this pro- duction that it is refreshing. It is a western plot from start to finish--do not mistake us in that-but it isn't a story that is the least bit impossible There isn't any hero that figuratively outwits or defeats an entire army ot opponents, nor does he accomplish the impossible. He isn't even "twogun' man, but he is two-fisted.
 William Stowell is the big two-fisted man of whom we speak and screen fans know that without us telling them Stowell will be remembered for his splendid work in such spectacles as
 Hearts of Humanity and Hell Nor gan's Girl" Here he is again in a role
 the equal to any he has ever portrayed There is Q bar-room fight in this play

aAlI- Star Comedy cominn

The phrase "all-sta~ cast" has been so oyerworked that it has come to be the bunk with a good share of the public, The term, however will take on a measure of reality when Mack SeRnetts latest and largest farce pro- duction, Yankee Doodle in Berlin" is spread out for the public gaze Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, May 1. 5, $ and [, at the Columbia theater.
 In this film. which is said to set the high mark for the comedy king of the screen, will be found five reels of mirth sustained at high pitch instead of the customary two from Sennett, and all the Sennett farceurs assembled in one array form 2. broadside of ridicule at German bluff and buster.
 Charlie Murray plays an Irish sol dier, Ford Sterling enacts the kaiser. Chester Conklin and Ben Turpin, Marie Provost and Eva Thatcher are ideally cast? the Sennett Bathing Beauties splash their way into consistent scenes; and Bothwell Browne, the noted male actor of feminine roles, was engaged for what may be considered the pivotal mart. that of an American aviator who. in disguise, as a gay ''vamp" worms his way into the imperial household and learns both state and dometsic secrets of value to the United States govern ment.
 It will cause no little f1utter among the admirers of those California scintil- lants. the bathing beauties, that they are to make a journey to the Columbia theater under special dispensation and appear in person in a beautifully staged act and series of illuminated poses in connection with the film comedy. Never hitherto seen outside their closely guarded studio haunts, they will now briefly emerge for flying visit to the east and appear in five of the largest cities.
 The double attraction will appear at | the Columbia for the four days men, toned above only. There will be three complete performances daily, at 2:1a, l z.15 and 3 o'clock.

FIRE MIXUP LEADS
 ID WARMING GIVEN
 PAIGE JAR OWNERS

Notice is hereDy served upon all owners of Paige cars with wire wheels to examine their spares" and see that they are properly inflated and ready for service. This warning is given be- cause it is known that there is one spare" which is not in readiness and the owner probably does not know it.
 Yesterday a telephone message was received at Simpsons Garage stating that Dr. Palmer's Paige was standing at the corner of Adams and Center street with one tire down. He had a spare at the garage and wanted it ad justed. An emissary was sent out and he found a Paige at the designated corner only little Away around on the Center street side. If he had looked about him, he would have found an- other Paige in the same shape about the same distance on the Adams street side That would have been the car he was looking for.
 But the Paige he found was one with wire wheels, while the spare he had brought was intended for a wooden wheeled car He noticed though, a spare on the car and he took it off and put it in place of the disabled tire, which he threw into his service car and returned to the garage.
 The proprietor knew that Dr. Pal mers car was not equipped with wire wheels and he hastened back with the wheel the emissary had brought, hop ing that he would reach the scene of the exchange before the police arrived. The transaction had not been discov- eyed yet and the disabled wheel was put on as a spare.
 This mistake saved the owner of the car the trouble of making change, but l if he happens to have puncture out in the country, and is relying upon that
 spare, he will feel that he has been | damaged.

THE ALAMO ISLANDS

The Aland islands. one large island and about three hundred small islands. are at the entrance of the Gulf of Bothnla7 the northern arm of the Bal tic sea. The area of the whole archi- pelago is about $50 square miles. Only about ninety of the group are inhab- ited. These rocky isles bear Scotch fir, spruce and birch trees, and afford subsistence to hardy breed of cattel The inhabitants are slillful fishermen and seal hunters. As a military posi- tion these islands are of very great importance. Sweden considers the islands the naval key to Stockholm and has asked the peace conference for their annexation.
