THE CHR|STY ACRES
 FOR SUBURBAN HOMES
Another Tract Plated by Greene &
 Griffin Adjacent to the City Limits.

The clamor for country homes and the growing need of more intensive farming has brought into the realty market another tract that will appeal to the eye of the home-builder. It is known as the "Christy Acres" and is a subdivision of a part of what is known as the Colonel Christy ranch. It is being placed on the market by Greene & Griffin as a suburban home tract, with building restrictions that will insure only nice neighborhood settlement
 This tract is cut up into two and a half acre lots. the Christy Acres front ing on the Yuma road and north of it. between the north extensions of Nine teenth and Twenty avenues. As the advertising of the firm says, it is "an ideal place for little home on easy terms, with building restrictions. It is only two blocks from the carline that passes the capitol building and three blocks from that structure. with electric lights and other municipal conveniences so near they can be cas- fly secured when there is a proper demand for them.
 Greene x Griffin have had wonder ful success in plating and selling their Evergreen place tract, which is now one of the most beautiful of all the Phoenix suburban residence sec tions and having disposed of it, they now propose to devote their energies to making the Christy Acres as desir- ablt spot.

SLAYER OF CARMACK
 FORMALLY CHARGED
A Friend of the Coopers SuspiciousIy Near the Killing.

Nashville. Nov. 11.-A state war rant charging him with the murder of former Senator E. w. Carmack was served on Robin Cooper in the hos pital, today and he will be removed to the county jail as soon as his con- dition permits. Tomorrow morning an investigation of the killing will begin.
 One of the chief topics of conver- sation on the streets today was the presence of eX-Sheriff John Sharpe at or near the scene of the shooting. The ex-sheriff was seen in the Ar cade with the two Coopers a few minutes before the killing, and to leave there with them.
 Today it develops from the state ment of Mrs Ellen Morgan, who saw Senator Carmack fall, that the eX- sheriff was at the scene of the kill ing within a few moments after it occurred.

Worry.

One who could rid the world of worry would render greater service to the race than all of the inventors and discoverers that ever lived.
 We Americans pity ignorant savages who live in terror of their cruel gods. their demons which keep them in ab- ject slavery. but We ourselves are the slaves of a demon which blasts our hopes, blights our happiness, casts its hideous shadow acros all our pleas ures, destroys our sleep. mars our health, and keeps us in misery most of our lives.
 This monster dogs us from the era dle to the grave. There is no occasion so sacred but it is there. Unbidden, it comes to the wedding and funeral alike It is at every reception, every banquet; it occupies a seat at every table.
 No human intellect can estimate the unutterable havoc and ruin wrought by worry. It has forced genius to do the work of mediocrity; it has caused more failures, more broken hearts. more blasted hopes, than any other one cause since the dawn of the world.
 What have not men done under the pressure of worry? They have plung- ed into all sorts of vice; have become drunkards. drug friends; have sold their very souls in their efforts to escape this monster.
 Think of the homes which it has broken up; the ambitions it has ruin ed; the hopes and prospects it has blighted 2 Think of the suicide vic tims of this demonl If there is any devil in existence, is it not worry. with all its attendant progeny of evils?
 Yet, in spite of all the tragic evils that follow in its wake, a visitor from another world would get the impress sion that worry is one of our dearest. most helpful friends, so closely do we rug it to ourselves and so 10th are we to part from it.-Orison Swett Marden in Success Magazine.

JOHN D. MOVES INTO

MANSION
Especial to The sentirel. ]

New York, Oct 14.-John ID.
Rockefeller has taken formal posses
sion of his new S1,000,000 house at
Pocantico Hills. He arranged at the
same time to station s watchmen,
two detectives and one bloodhound
to guard himself and family from any
annoyance. The new house develops
as it stands completed today with the
surrounding terraces anu nigh stone
walls, one of the most inaccessible
homes in this country, labyrinth of
winding walks, blind passages and
hidden steps having been constructed
with the idea of confusing any day or
midnight intruder.
Even the playhouse" which is in
tended for Mr.. Rockefeller's grand
children, is connected with the resi-
dence by tunnel. The whole build
ing seems to have been planned to
make approach by an outsider almost
impossible. There is only one main
entrance, and this is through gate
way. The house is built backward,
too. What appears to be an imposing
colonial front looking in the direc-
tion of the Hudson river is the rear
of the house.
There is sub-basement besides
the main basement, and broad walks
lead past the terraces to what might
be taken for the main entrance. In
stead, they lead to blind walls. No
steps are discernable whatsoever The
visitor suddenly finds himself stand
| ing on the terrace. looking mp one
and a half stories over series of
stone walls to what appears to be the
living part of the house, are con
cealed. and only one very familiar
with the secret of the labyrinth could
gain access to any part of the build
ing unless entrance was made

today in anticipation of the publica-
tion tomorrow of the first campaign
fund report of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee. All names of con-
tributors and amounts given will be
made public tomorrow. according to
National Treasurer Herman Ridder.
1t is also stated that all sums receiv-
ed after tomorrow, up to the close of
the campaign. will be published daily.
This will be the first time in the his
tory of the republic that either of the
big parties has taken the public into
its confidence in regard to the source
and amount of the funds secured for
carrying on a national campaign. al
though the Socialists and other minor
parties have done so.
Mr.. Ridder declares that while
there has been something of financ-
ial stringency at Democratic national
headquarters. the prospects are now
growing brighter and the fund is
daily growing in volume. The Ger
man editor who succeeded Haskell as
treasurer has more than made good.
according to his colleagues, and it is
declared that he is rapidly educating
the common people" to the knowl-
edge that this is their campaign and
that they must supply the sinews of
war.
The national treasurer declares
that he has implicitly obeyed Mr.
Bryan's instructions in refusing con
tributions from fayor-seeking trusts
and corporations, and that no con-
tributiOn has been accepted from any
person who seeks favors in return.
