 ElkS' MEMORIAL SERvlCE-The annual memorial service of Phoenix lodge No. 335. B. P. O. Elks. will be held Sunday afternoon at ? o'clock in the Arizona School of Music building It has been a custom heretofore to is- sue invitations to this service merely to limit the attendance to the capacity of the auditorium, but the plan was not entirely satisfactory and it was decid- ed this year to issue TO invitations. The public is therefore cordially in- vited to come without written, printed or any other than the general invita- tion. A most excellent program has been prepared, one that will be deep ly impressive as well as entertaining. This is no different from previous Elk memorials in that respect, except that an effort is made each year to surpass in excellence the programs of preceding years, but all are of too high an order to criticize. The most fee bie effort has been a successful one
 PIONEER RETURNS FROM Ex- TENDED viSlT.-Miss Caroline Han cock. the youngest sister of the late Captain William A. Hancock and one of the early pioneers of this valley, ar- rived yesterday to visit her sister. Mrs. Martha Patrick, who lives in the old Simms mansion at 1908 North Central Avenue and other relatives and friends. Miss Hancock came to PhOe- nix overland by way of San Diego Call ifornia in 1875, and lived in the valley several years. teaching the first school in Tempe and later the Phoenix school which was housed in a small adobe building that stood upon the east side of the block now occupied by the Gen. tral school, fine modern building. Later. removing to California. she ac- cepted the position of librarian of the city library of Sacramento which po- sition she held for twenty-one years and only resigned after the sale of her large ranch in Salt River Valley, now one of the Dwight B. Heard properties west of the city Miss Hancock is greatly surprised at the modern city she finds here now where there was
 little else than sage brush and mes quite when she left, and she is puzzled to identify a single old land mark in the way of buildings. for even the few remaining adobes of the early days have been so renodeled as to be un- recognizable. She will remain for a brief period and would be glad to meet any old acquaintances who can call at her address.

The supervisors fire committee con-
sidered yesterday the proposed ordt-
nance designed to regulate tenement
houses submitted by a special commit
tee of the convention of Episcopal
churches, consisting of City Engineer
woodward, Rev Cecil Marrack and
John BakewelI Jr.
Marrack called attention to the fact
that tenement houses were now being
constructed in this city which were
unsightly and unsanitary.
Henry A. Fiske urged the passage
of the ordinance and referred TO a three
story building at Mason and Vande-
water streets in which the only venti-
lation for II bedrooms was a shaft
three feet wide.

real estate board: Isidor Jacobs of the
Potrero manufacturers association:

OAKLAND, June 27.-Highbinder
hostilities have again broken out in
Chinatown, the first victim of the war
ring tongs being Ow Ching. who is en-
ployed in an overall factory at 162 Sec
ond street. Ching was shot twice this
morning by Chon Wal. a laborer. who
entered the factory where the victim
was at work, and, without warning,
fred three shots at Ching. two of the
bullets taking effect. Neither or tho
wounds was serious. one being an
abrasion over the left eye and the
other flesh wound in the left arm.
Wal ran from the factory. down Sec
ond street to Jackson, and concealed
himself in yard at 6541a Jackson
street, first throwing the revolver with
which he had done the shooting into an
ash barrel in the yard. He was cap
tured by J. Dolan and A. G. Taft, who,
after hard battle with the high
binder overpowered him and turned
him over to Policeman Tusher. Wal
was booked at the police station on a
charge of assault with a deadly wea-
pom, and later a complaint was sworn
to by his victim. The pistol was re-
covered by the police.
With oriental reticence, neither the
wounded man nor his assailant would
offer explanations. Detectives said
that the shooting was a result OF
highbinder feud. Acting Chief of Po-
lice Petersen has ordered an extra de-
tail of patrolmen into Chinatown to
check further outbreak. He said that
a repetition of last winters disturb
ance would be prevented if possible.

Aged Mrs. Titus Refuses to
Be Ousted From San
Mateo Property
GUARDING OLD HOME

REDWOOD CITY, June PIT can't
disarm that woman; she carries the
gun in her stocking" exclaimed Jus
tice James Rannon of Redwood City
yesterday. when the demand was made
by Carl Muller Daniel Flynn and Henry
McGarvey, three business men of this
town, that Mrs. John Titus. an aged
woman, be disarmed In order that they
might be able to take peaceable posses
sion of property formerly belonging to
her. but which now belongs to them.
Despite the expostulations of the
plaintiffs the judge remained firm and
chivalroasly declined to molest the de-
fendant. He allowed her to return to
renew her vigil against trespassers.
From present indications it is thought
that the three men will not attempt TO
secure possession by force, as the
woman bears the reputation of being a
dead shot
Mrs. Titus is one of the earliest
settlers of this part of the county and
is well known character. She came
into the possession of the disputed land
over 40 years ago and has lived in a
cottage thereon for the greater part of
that period. Until recently she was
the owner, but she assumed heavy
mortgages to make repairs subsequent
to the earthquake. She was unable to
meet the payments on the loan, and
her brother. who lives at Pacific Grove,
bought the mortgage interest and gave
his sister the privilege of living on the
place as long as she desired.
Recently he disposed of the entire
piece of property to the three mer-
chants who are now endeavoring to
gain possession, but are willing that
Mrs. Titus shall retain her cottage.
The woman stands guard night and
day to prevent being ousted. The place
is one of the most valuable single
holdings in town, being a tract of 100
feet frontage on the main thoroughfare
of the business section.
1t is understood that the merchants
will resort to the superior court and de-
mand that the sanity of the guardian
Of the premises be investigated.

MINISTERS DISCUSS IDEA
THAT DOGS HAVE SOULS
DR.. McTaggart's Theory Is
Looked Upon as Being
Purely Speculative

BERKELEY, June 27-Ministers
throughout the city took a lively in
terest today in The Calls report of DR..
John Z. McTaggart's views of the I'M
mortality of animals, the English phil
osopher having declared yesterday his
belief that horses and dogs and animals
of like intelligence have souls and
are immortal as man is immortal
Professor Howison, head of the de-
partment of philosophy at the univer-
sity, is known TO coincide with Dr.
McTaggart's- view of the matter, as DO
the subordinate members of the de-
partment. but the Christian ministers
of the college town are not so hos
pitable in welcoming the English phil
osopher's doctrine.
Rev w. H. Hopkins of the First
Congregational church said:
while there is some force in the
savage pleasantly that one who has
seen certain men thinks more than
before of some dogs, 1 have never
felt the force of the appeal for animal
Immortality The main question IS
not whether there be Immortality, bat
whether a man be worth it. To know
isn't quite enough to open the gates"
DR.. F. D. Bovard, editor of the Cali
president of the University of Southern
California, now living in Berkeley, does
not look upon DIR. McTaggarts idea
about animal Immortality as an abso-
lutte novelty.
John Wesley entertained a similar
belief" said DR.. Bovard. The founder
of Methodism considered that a good
horse or a good dog would get through
all right and so expressed himself in
his sermons more than 100 years ago.
He held this as matter of speculation,
and not as a matter of revelation.
which is quite an important distinction.
Methodists will not be shocked greatly
by DR.. McTaggart's announcement of
belief about horses and dogs being
immortal"
DR.. r. S. Eastman of the South
Berkeley Presbyterian church said:
THE statement of DIR. McTaggarts
about animals having souls IS interest
ing, but personally 1 am skeptical
about its truth or its value as an idea
The problem is purely speculative, OF
course, and 1 doubt whether DR.. Nc
Taggart or Professor Howison would
logical formula and a bit of specufa-
tion. 1t appears to me merely an In
teresting exercise in logic to say that
all intelligence is immortal; dogs have
intelligence and therefore dogs are i'm
mortal / do not know of anything in
the scriptures that either supports or
disproyes the doctrine of animal i'm
mortality"
