MAN DISAPPEARS
WHILE HUNTING
lirln llIAn1ru
H[hn WHnD[H
mo Trace Can Be Found of L.
w. Myers Who Has Not
Been Seen Since Sunday
Afternoon at 4 O'Clock.

One OF the strangest cases OF dis
appearance here In long time is that
of !. W MAUa-s a naner ruler by pro-
fession who up until a few days ago,
was employed in the job department
of the Review. While out hunting with
a friend on Sunday afternoon In the
lower end of the district, Myers wan
dered away and has not been seen
since. Owing to remarks which he
had made it is believed that ne may
have committed suicide, while anoth-
er theory is that he is a drug fiend,
and to satisfy a craving for morphine
is in one of the opium joints on the
Mexican side of the line at Naco. Cap
tain Wheeler of the Arizona Rangers,
was notified of the matter and took
charge Of the search last evening.
On Sunday morning Ralph Erlck-
son, aged about II years, and L. w.
Myers started out down the canyon
on a hunting expedition, the former
having a shot gun and ammunition.
Late Sunday evening the boy returned
to the city and stated that about
O'Clock Myers had borrowed the gun
and saying that he would hunt some
thing started off. By this time they
had reached a point about four miles
east of Warren. Ten minutes later
Erickson heard a shot and running in
the direction it came from, to ascer-
tain what had been killed, to his sur
prise he could not discover M. vrs.
He searched for more than hour but
could find not trace of his companion
and returned home
Yesterday morning Myers had not
come back to the city aad Erickson
went to tae place where he had left
him the day before. The search was
again fruitless.
It was stated py men working N the
same department with Myers that he
was a drug fiend and that he had said
after he had been discharged a few
days ago for drinking heavily that if
he ever touched liquor again he would
kill himself.
Captain Wheeler of the Rangers,
was in the city last evening and was
given all of the particulars In the
case. Unless the man is found be-
fore this morning in Naco, the Ranger
Commander with one of his men will
take trip into the mountains in
search.
Myers is about 35 years of age;
weighs 100 pounds; stands 5 feet 9
inches htga; has a sallow complex
ion, and when seen last was dressed
in good brown suit OK clothes, brown
derby hat and black shoes.

inn New Brigton and Fontza boarded

left with the little child while Mrs.
Taluci went shopping. The mother
had not gone far from the house
when the child's screams brought her
back. When he saw Mrs. Taluci
Fontza rushed from the house, Mrs.
Taluci following him. Her crles
brought out the neighbors and soon
a mob was following the fleeing Ital-
ian down the street. The pursuers
soon overlook the man and he was
knocked to the ground where he was
severely beaten and kicked by men
and women until a policeman appear
ed and with club and revolver fought
off the crowd.
The child, on orders of a magis-
trate, was examined by a physician

HOW CITY LOST MONEY.
Installed Light on NIeIan Bridge
Which Must Be Changed.

On April 2, 1906. the city spent 1872
under a contract let to a local electric
construction company for the installa-
ton of ten arc lights on the Melan arch
bridge. The Edison company under it's
franchise furnishes the light for the arc
lights on the Melan bridge free ofeharge
to the city
Through bad b1under on somebody's
part the blame has not yet been located
the city has thrown away that sS72. An
entire new installation will have to be
purchased including a different type of
lamp. 1t is evident that the gas and
electric lights committee of the council
at that time was persuaded that If
would be cheaper to put in the present
type of lamp than the one first recon-
mended. In so doing however they man
aged to save a small amount only to
waste a larger later on.
The installation of the lamps on the
bridge came up about the time that the
city contracted with the Edison com
pany to furnish 81 arc lights on Kansas
avenue The contract was entered into
with the Edison company simply as a
temporary sort of arrangement to re-
neVe the overloaded circuits of the city
electric light plant. 1t was recommend
ed at the time that a transformer be put
In for the lights on the Melan bridge
and new lamps installed. The estimat-
ed cost ran over a thousand dollars
This recommendation was set aside and
the council followed the recommends
ton putting in the same lights as the
Edison company put on Kansas avenue.
The Edison company is now taking
down the thirty-two lights on Kansas
avenue and North Kansas avenue under
orders from the city which will supplant
all of them with lamps furnished with
current from a circuit from the city
electric plant. But the Edison company
Informed the mayor today that with the
of these lamps and of course
the removal of this particular circuit
they Will be unable to furnish current to
the lamps on the Melan bridge unless
the city changes the type of it's lamp
and puts in transformer. The city
council is therefore back al the original
proposition of two years ago. Worse,
they have spent SS72 and have nothing
to show for it. Possibly they can trade
in the present lamps on a purchase for
new lamps but there is still a large mar
gin of loss
Five of the lamps in North Topeka
out OF the eight are now on a city circuit
and gradually all of them are being re-
moved from the Edison circuit to that
of the city's. The change is made possi-
Die by the expenditure of 1856 worth of
on the city plant.

CUT OFF HIS SON.
Millionaire Smell Left Estate in Trust
for a Century.

Bloomington, Ill, Aug. 6.-The pro-
batting of the will of Col Thomas Smell
is causing lively interest in central IL
linois and northern Iowa where he had
Investments and property valued at ap-
proximataly 100000.
OF five children, only one son, Rich
ard Smell of Clinton, ILL.,, is living. Yet
Colonel Smell cut off this only son en-
tirely In fact the entire estate is put
in trust and is not to be distributed
until 20 years after the death of the
youngest heir. The youngest daughter
of Mrs William V Dtnsmore of San
Jose, Cal, is the youngest heir at law
and should she live until 20 years of
age, the estate will remain in trust for
20 years longer than that, or 80 years.
1t is estimated that If the directions
of the testator are carried out to the
letter and the estate not divided for
rs or 100 years, 1t will with its present
earnings amount close to a billion dol
lars.
The heirs at law will attempt to
show that the ecoentricity of the testa-
tor incapacitated him from making ar
equitable distribution of his property
and they will seek to have the will set
aside. In this they will be strongly
aided by the known mental and physi-
cal failings of Colonel Thomas Smell.
Shrewd. close and grasping by nature
he was at times fanciful and fiighty.

ing and burning of Louisville because

ODD COINCIDENCE.
Landis' Decision and Smiths Report
Well Timed, Says Archbold-

| New York, Aug. 6.-John D. Archbold,
vice president of the Standard Oil COM
pany, made a statement today in which
he declared that the company was not
given an opportunity to be heard or to
submit data in the preparation of the
report prepared by Commissioner of Cor
poratfons HeberJ Knox Smith and made
public.
M. Archbolds statement follows:
"On Saturday, August 8, Judge Lam
dis announced his decision.
"On Monday, August ;, Commissioner
Smiths report is given to the public.
This remarka bic report CT Mr..
Smith marks another coincidence in the
1tterances of the different departments
of the government in their attacks on
us that have occurred so frequently as
to rob them of even the appearance of
being accidental
I'm connection with its publication it
may not be arniss to remind the public
that the act creating the bureau of cor
porations provides that such reports
purpose of guiding him in forming sug-
gestions as to legislation and that they
may be made public III whole or in part
only in the discretion of the president
1T is sufficient now for us to say that
in the preparation of his report Mr.
Smith did not see fit to even confer
with us. We think the public will agree
that We are al least entitled to be heard
in such a matter.
''If Mr.. Smith had seen fit to confer
with us, we would have readily furnish
ed him the data for truthful statement
Of the facts on this question"
