STREET CAR EXTENSION
Phoenix City Railway Will Build to
 the Indian School.

It is anlIJunced that the Phoenix city railroad has fallen in line with the ex-
 pansion idea, and has under way a
 project that will prove a great con- Venience and benefit to the city and
 eventually result in a corresponding financial benefit to itself The matter in hand is the extension of the First street electric car line to the Indian school. Just what route will he taken is not definitely known, but it is re- ported that rights of way have been secured on North First street to Cen tral place. thence west to Central ave- nue and north to the Indian school.
 This enterprise is fully in keeping with the hopes and possibilities of the Greater Phoenix. and is but one of the many improvements that should come in the near future. Central avenue is the finest suburban drive and those who patronize the street cars for eX- cursion purposes will find this line more attractive than the old. as it will pass through d nicely settled country district. The Indian school is always an attraction in itself, and street car will not only be more con Venient, but cheaper for the great number of visitors to that institution, and where there is now one visitor to the place. there will be dozens in the future The car line will also bring every resident between Phoenix and the school practically within the city.

 Roberts Broke.

Honolulu, Nov. 16.-Robert Will cox, the Independent RoyaIist candidate, has been elected con- rgressional delegate by d small ma jority. His campaign was anti white, with promises on the part of some of his campaigners that if elected he would labor for the restoration of Queen LiliuokaIani. The result pro- duces much depression among the whites and shows that native bitter ness over annexation is still alive.
 Wilcox is a son of an American sea captain and a native woman. He was sent to Italy by King Kala5aua, and studied in the military school in Milan. He married the Princess Vic toria Colonna di Stigloana. They sep arated and were divorced. Wilcox married again, and his enemies claim that his second marriage occurred pri- or to the divorce, and that he will he thrown out of congress on account of bigar1y.

OvEREAULING OF sTALEY
His Capture Facilitated by Foolish
 and Unnecessary Lie.

A few days ago man by the name
 of Staley, and wearing a Masonic pin
 began hanging around the Palace sa-
 loon. He was rather gentlemanly
 appearing fellow and formed the ac-
 quaintance of Lee Perkins, one of the
 proprietors. He told MT. Perkins that
 he had been stopping at the Commer-
 cial, but had just taken apartments in
 his neighborhood, and would remain in
 Phoenix during the winter. MT. Per
 kins was glad to have so pleasant a
 neighbor as Mir Staley. On Thursday evening, after banking hours, Mir Sta- ley was reminded that he needed some
 money, and asked MT. Perkins if he
 would cash $10O check for him. It
 was done, and when MT. Staley started for the Masonic banquet that night. he
 stopped and asked MT. Perkins if he would be at the banquet that night If so. they would walk home together.
 The check, by the way, was drawn on a Leadville. Col, bank, and was signed
 'F. M. S,baly." MT. Sta1ey was not at the banquet. MT. Perkins did not wonder at that, for the minds of the best meaning gentlemen are subject to change. The next morning a man at the Palace casually spoke to ME Per kins about his friend, and said that Staley had been there the night be fore and said that he had accompanied MT. Perkins to the banquet. That was a little thing, but it set MT. Perkins to thinking. He went to the place where Staley had told him he had taken his rooms. He then went to the Com and found that a w. ". Sta ley had stopped there. At the $. F. r. and F. office it was learned that a man of that name had bought a ticket to Los Angeles, and had gone on the night before The number of the ticket | was 1923.
 MT. Perkins laid all this information before Deputy Sheriff Boyd, who sent out telegrams to kingman, Albuquer- | que and Los Angeles, directing the ar | rest of man holding a Santa Fe | ticket. No 4S23. The telegram also | contained d reasonably good descrip | ton of the holder. Yesterday after noon d reply was received from Los saying that the holder of 4S23 | was in custody; that he said his name | was w. w. Staley, and that he had met | his arrest by d. proposition for the com pounding of his felony. He was q busy man and couldn't spare the time to come back to Arizona. In the mean time, warrant for his arrest had been procured and telegraphed. Staley's $ was taken under Considera- ton at the district attorneys office and ast night a telegram was sent to Los Angeles authorities authorizing the re- lease of Staley upon his surrender of ;100 and the payment of the costs that nave been incurred.
 But that for that foolish and unne- lie Staley told the man in the Palace about his presence at the Ma sonic banquet, suspicion of him would have been held up at least until late afternoon, when he would no longer have the telltale ticket No. 1928 in his possession
