 An heir has laid claim to Woodfield, the tract of land of forty-five acres in Westville which the city claims to own, and which has become the object of lit igation between the city and John M. Greist. The heir is Mrs. Louise M. Me Gosh, of Baltimore. who says she is a lineal descendant of Elijah Thompson, who in his will, admitted to probate in 1926, devised that the property should revert to the city after none of his heirs had claimed 1t. As no one claimed 1t the city concluded that 1t was city land and prepared to lay out a park there, Mrs. Mccosh, through Attorney w. H. Ely, has petitioned the superior court to have an order issued giving her right and title to the land.

TONTO ROAD MEETING
Great Enthusiasm Manifested at Dor
 ris Theater Last Night.

The mass meeting at the Doris theater last night for a discussion Of the Tonto road bond proposition was we'll attended and whatever manifes- tation of sentiment was exhibited was wholly in favcr of the bonds. The subject has already been so well can vassed by the newspapers and on the streets that little new in the way of argument could be oeforded but the audience was pleased to hear the ar guments over again.
 The meeting was called to order by C. H. Akers, chairman of the citizens committee. which had the arrangement Of the meeting in hand. The first speaker of the evening was Governor I3rodie, who said that he had consider ed the subject only in a general way, but the advantage of a road from Phoerix to the damsite was patent to in his opinion numerous reasons why the road should be built and he could suggest no reason why the people of the three towns should not build it.
 The governor was followed by Mayor Bennett, who said that the question new before the people was purely a business question. There was no sen timent about it; it was a matter which affected the pocketbooks of the resi- dents of the city. He had given the subject a great deal of attention and he could only discover in the proposi- ton a money-making project. The

SALE OF A MINE
Changing Ownership of a Valuable
 Property in the Harqua HaIas.

A mining sale that may prove to be or more than passing importance was consummated in this city on Saturday last, the facts being made public yes terday. The property involved is a group of six gold and copper claims in the Ellsworth district of the Harqua EIala mountains, west of the city. and no great distance from the proposed line of the Arizona, California & santa. F'e railroad The consideration has not been made public, but that it is a like " amount is evidenced by certain other oetails or the transaction that have been given out.
 The seller is Dave Finkabinder known to a great many of his friends as Lave Fink, an old time prospector of the territory and a veteran of the civil war. He has sold a two-thirds in terest in the property to a Pasadena corporation, for which he received a. cash payment of $10OO, and is to re- ceive similar payments at the expira- ton of periods of six months for a term or years, together with monthly pay ments of $100 and S100,000 in the stock of the East Bisbee mine, one of the Phelps Dodge properties under develop ment in the Warren district near Bis bee MT. Finkabinder has been holding the property and developing it as he was able almost from the first organiz- ation of that district.
 He and the party who closed the deal, but whose name could not be learned were the men who. while coming here rom the mine, first discovered the ghastly remains of John Phillips, who committed suicide at Winters station short time ago. Just what the sale may indicate is not known, but the fact that quantity of Phelps-Dodge stock figured in the transaction gives rise to the theory that that firm may be interesting itself In that section.

burden which would be placed upon taxpayers by the voting of the bonds would be small in comparison with the benefits which would be derived from the road. The sum of $67, 800 which the people of Phoenix would nave to contribute, would be less than one and one-half per cent upon the taxable property of the town. If the returns from the road in the way of freight savings, added business, an avenue for tourists who would come rom all parts of the country to see the greatest engineering feat under taken in the west, would not amount to more than $1.50 upon each S1OO, it would amount to nothing.
 Carl Hayden Of Tempe was the next speaker MT. Hayden at the begin ming was not, he said, in favor of the road. He, as most of the people of Tempe at that time, was unable to see how that town would profit by the building of the road. The proposition. though, was one which bore inspection and he believed now that it should be built. There would be no other time when it. could be built so cheap ly as it would have to be built some time by the people of the valley. At this time the valley had the benefit Of the engineering skill which the government would furnish and more over the construction would be done by the government which was an as- surarce that there would be no graft. We would not" said MT. Hayden, be sure of that if we were building the road ourselves"
 Dr. F. w. Wilbur of Mesa was an enthusiastic speaker in favor of the road. He had originally favored the

FUNERAL OF J. L. BURROWS
Buried With Military Honors From
 the Christian Science Church.

The funeral service of John l.. Bur rows was held yesterday afternoon, at o'clock, at the Christian Science church in the postoffice building. There was a large attendance of friends of the dead man who was we'll known and popular, and of the Grand Army and Woman's Relief corps, with which organizations he was affiliated by reason of honorable service during the civil war. After the church service the Grand Army took charge of the body which was inferred with military honors.
 The service began with an instru- mental piece on the organ, after which Mrs. Rumney, the first reader of the local society read a paper in which it was stated that while the dead man made no professions of adherence to the doctrines of the church. yet he had often stated that in consideration of it's teachings he had been given great joy. In the course of the paper reference was made to appropriate biblical quotations.
 The 97th psalm was then read by Miss Hall the second reader of the church and a haynrn was sung. Mrs. Rumney next read the fourteenth
  chapter of John and Miss Hall fol- lowed with selections from Mrs Eddys book, Science and Health.
 Abide With Me-" was sung by the choir after which the friends who de- sired to view the face of the dead for the last time, filed through a small room adjacent to the auditorium, after which the procession formed, the pail bearers being J. E. Bark, Capt. P. P. Parker D. F. Kyle, w. P. Richardson, Henry Riddle and Anton Anderson
 The hearse was preceded by the Grand Army, the Woman's Relief corps and the firing squad furnished by Company.N. G. A. At the ceme- tery the Grand Army service was read by James H. Creighton. commander of J. w. Owens rost assisted by Chaplain Winfield Scott. The Womans Relief CorpT, represented by Mrs. Eugene Brady O'Neill and Mrs. P. P. Parker. placed number of floral offerings on the casket- After the body had been lowered the firing squad gave the usual salute and taps were sounded.

A STORM AT ToNTo
A TOrrential Rain Accompanied by a
 Heavy Wind.

Livingston. Ariz., Saturday, March Correspondence of The Republican)-Rain fell last Wednesday for the first time in several months. Although the clouds had besn gather ing around the valley for some days past, it was thought that it would blow over, but the old saying it never rains but it pours,' proved true. Starting in about o'clock in the afternoon the rain fell in torrents accompanied by a very high wind and a large cottonwood tree near the headquarters office was blown down and several of the tents suffered slight damage. It continued raining all night and there was also

 Mir. Hill arrived at headquarters last evening from his trip to Phoenix, but it is expected that he will return to that place on Tuesday.
 The telephone line from headquarters camp to Roosevelt is completed, the first message being sent over the wire yesterday It will only be a short time before the line will be finished to the Arizona dam, as MT. Thorpe has a large fierce of men working on the line.
 great deal of rivalry has existed at headquarters over the championship honors for quoit throwing. A game was played today to decide the doub- les. the winning team being Becker and Reidy who. succeeded in throwing two games out of three from Darby and Ehenmann.
 It is expected that MT. MacNulty, the new stenographer, will prove quite an addition to the headquarters camp baseball team, as it is understood that he was one of the heavy hitters on the Phoenix nine.
