Linville who made so brilliant a race
for chief. Mir. Warner explained that
he thought 50 too and had seconded Mr.
Evans nomination. as one of Linvilles
llieutenants, and understanding that
Mr. Linville would not have it. Lin
ville's election was unanimous and by
acclamaticn, for which he thanked the
department and agreed to be active in
its interests.
w. B. Lount was reelected president
unanimously while he was not looking
and he thanked the department, max
ing only one request which was that
the department furnish him a white
pine gavel with an ash handle.
The next incident was the funny one
of the meeting. All were good natured
and things We're slipping along as
though the road was creased. There
I was more or less confusion in the room
when somebody nominated Paul
Kruger for vice president. Mr.. Kruger
had been taking an active part in the
meeting but had rot heard the pre-
sentation OF his own name. He knew
there was something doing and tried
I to get the floor so he could wedge in
and get some information. He want
ed to know what the play was. The
rest of the department however. in
stantly concluded that he wanted 70
decline the nomination and refused 70
let him have the floor. Every time he
moved an inch off his chair a deafening
yell went up. When he settled back
again all would be quiet This con-
tinued till Mr.. Kruger got mad. He
thought they were making several
kinds OF fool of him and robbing him
of his rights. He didn't know whether
he was being sat upon by the house or
whether his pants had ripped thereby
causing all the merriment. Finally
vote was taken and taken hard and
unanimously. After the nail had been
driven through the board and cIinched
SO Ar. Kruger could not jar il loose
again he was allowed 10 talk. He
asked what had been done and who did
it. When he found out ne said: ooh.
is that all. well, thank you gentlemen"
G. r. Price and E. :. Russell were
nominated for secretary. Mr.. Russell
declined on the ground that he had had
the honor several years and preferred
to pass it along. Mr.. Price Was unani-
mOusly chosen.
For treasurer e. r. O'NeiH nominated
L. Il. Lariner and T. Olea nominated
e. Gonzales.
Mr.. Larimer was elected by a vote of

A NEW FIRE CHIEF
Annual Election of the Phoenix Vol
unteer Department.

The annual election of the Phoenix
fire department held last night, was an
occasion of general interest to the pub
lie ard unbounded joy to the members.
1t was greatly in contrast to the meet
ing Of a year ago wnen Jle only people
that got any joy out o, it were the
officers elected and the heeleTs Of the
Young Mems Democratic club, who
won a hard fight by the margin of ar
eyebrow. The interesting Kilkenny
features OF the meeting a year ago
were entirely lacking but as an enter
taiEmeSt there We're cOmpensatilg in
cidents in the vociferous expressions
pronoUEoing the wonderful popularity
of everybody and in the unanimity
with which the department saturated
certain of its officers with honors.
\ year ago c.. W. Stokoe was nomi-
mated as the only available man Tor
the controlling element to make fight
with and he was duly elected, since
which time, ne has served the company
at least conscientiOusly Last night
he sought the endorsement of his years
work in a reelection, or his friends
sought it for him, but having fulfilled
the mission fate had sent him on he
was allowed to again become an hum
bic member in the ranks. Mr.. Stokce.
however, was philosophically good
nature1 and participated in making
the election OF his victorious opponent,
r. A. Warner, unanimous.
The meeting was largely attended
there being over ninety voters in the
hall beside the honorary members and
q few rOOters in the grand stand. The
meeting was called to order by the
president w. B. LoU-lt with Secretary
z. 5. Russell at his post. On motion
Of n. a. Sanders an election board of
three members was chosen, its PER
sonnet being Messrs. Sanders, jeff
Duncan and William Dowell. The
nomination for chief being declared in
order C. W. StokOe was presented by
Al Arthur, Russell A Warner was
named by Eugene Brady OrNein and
Tom Linville was vouched for by Tom

We're short but laudatory. The roll of
/ members was called and the ballots
cast and counted, the result being:
Warner Il, Linville 81, Stokoe IS.
Nc man receiving a majority of votes
cast, another ballot was ordered which
resulted in the election of Mr.. Warner
the vote being Warner so and Linville
y. Mr.. Stokoe having in q neat speech
previously Withdrawn from the race
Linville moved that the election OF
Warner be made unanimous ard
Stokoe seconded Il, the motion was car
ried and Mr.. Warner vas escorted to
the platform when ne thanked the de-
partment in short and pleasing
speech.
Paul Kruger nominated William
Evans for assistant chief Mr. War

that he did not desire the Office though

hereto attached. The said jurors on
their oaths ro say, safter having heard
the evidence and examined said body:
We do find that the deceased came TO
his death by violence at the hands OF a

made by the written evidence of the

All the members of the George Cum
ningham family were examined, but the
testimony was conflicting and no espe-
cially new developments were made.

evidence of Dodson himself, who svrore
that no such conversation had taken
place and by Meyers straightforward
evidence in his own behalf.

tured skull and suffering from the eff
fects of some drug, James +. Morgan,

may result. How Morgan received his

to believe that he was the victim OF
a robbery, altho some small property
in his possession when taken in charge
by the police indicates that the rop-
bers were interrupted in their work OF

According to the hospital physicians,
the fracture of the skull was the result
of blow from a. club or similar
