FLAGSTAFF TO CELEBRATE
Next August is the Time Settled for the Event.


 the Event.
 Flagstaff. the pushing little city on the A. & P. railroad in the pine woods of Coconino county, has already begun to prepare for gorgeous celebration to be given some time next August. Two or three days will be devoted to sports and park will be laid out, q bicycle track built and every prepara- ton made for both the comfort and amusement of those who visit them.
 Flagstaff in August is an ideal place, very similar to Phoenix winter time, being 5000 feet above sea level. beau- ,ifulIy surrounded by many objects of interest. Here it is that the people go to the homes of the ancient cliff dwellers, where in the year 100 a whole city of people were massacred in day, aud the habitations left tenantess. Here also people outfit for the Grand Canyon of tn. Colorado, one of pature's greatest wonders, and August is the best season of the year for visit. It is to be part of the program at the close of the festivities in Flagstaff to organize mammoth excursion at cheap rate to visit the Grand Canyon. Phoenix at present is very busy preparing for the second annual midwinter carnival to be held here February 19, 20, 2l and 22 at which thousands of outside people will be found. It is hoped all the outside cities of Arizona will seud large dele gations and great assurance is given that such will be the case. Especially for those of the north this will be a pleasant trip and when August comes around 2,000 Phoenlx people. may be expected at Flagstaff as at that season it is warm here and our people who are great travellers. will enjoy few days of the pure collaborating atmos- phere of that section. Come to Phoe- nix during the carnival and this city will return four for one next August. Gazette.

Az ALLEGED HIGHWAY ROBBERY
con,a time after twelve O'Clock last
n;gbt officer Goods found colo:ed
Ion endeayoring to enter the house OF
white gentleman on south Henry
S,rae, The man had endeavored to
snin admission to other residences in
H. locality, and had alarmed some
nannle The officer put him under ar
rest and took him 10 the station house.
This morning when placed in the dock
he told q thrilling story. He gave his
name as Webster Lacey, and said he
was q track hand on the Southern Rail-
war. that last night he was in Sefer
BIouse's saloon, on upper King street,
and that one-legged man with a
mopstache asked him to go with him
10 10 his buggy and help him into it.
Tacey accompanied the man in q
northwesterly direction, but seeing no
bnpgy became apprehensive and so ex-
nressed himself. At this juncture, he
said two young white men whom he
had seen with his companion in Blouse's
came up, when the one-legged man
ordered Lacey, at the point OF pistol,
~ hold up his hands. The terrified
Jarkev complied, when the two men
Who had Joined them went through his
nockets and took his pocketbook. They
extracted the money (about five dol
Iars) and handed him the empty
nocketbook. The one-legged man then
said shoot him; | don't want this
thing put upon me-" Lacey ran, and
as he did 80 two pistol shots were fired
at him. He kept on until he reached
the residence of the late VIM. Gray,
where the barking of the dogs attracted
the attention of Alfred Peters, who
came down stairs and listened to his
statement of his adventure. Later
Lacey came back to the city and en-
deayored to find the house of friend,
where he could be safe until this morn.
ing. II having been reported at the
station house that Richard Burnett (who
answered the description of the one
legged man, Harry Sims and Frank
HAYES were in Blouse's saloon about
the time Lacey was there, warrants
were issued for the arrest of the trio.
Lacey, as soon as he looked at the men,
positively identified them as the foot
pads who had robbed and attempted to
murder him. He gave circumstantial
description of the affair and the respec-
tive parts each of the accused took in
it. Hays and Sims refused to make
statements, but Burnett replied to the
charge, though he said nothing what
ever that could be regarded as retu
tation of the allegation. He admitted
being in the saloon with Lacey, and
that he drank with him; also that Lacey
left the saloon ahead of him. The
Mayor sent all three to Jail to await
the action of the grand jury, refusing
to take bail, and held Lacey until he
should give security for his appearance
as witness. Other witnesses who, it
is believed, will corroborate the dar-
keys statement, will be summoned.
