PLAN IMPEACHMENT IF COURT HOUSE
 PLAZA
CFrom Tuesdays Daily)

Plans mutually agreed upon by the board of supervisors contemplate the early improvement and beautifying of the court house plaza to an ex- tent that will work a virtual trans formation of that place. The work it is stated will begin within short while, certainly by the first of the new year.
 While no official action has been taken in the matter, and no contracts have been let, it is said to be the mutual agreement among the super visors to have the work done.
 Among the improvements to be made will be that of repairing the cement sidewalks on the court house grounds. For a long time eonsidera- ble complaint has been made relative to the bad condition of the walks there, and it is purposed to put these in good condition and build new ones where needed. A circular walk sur rounding the entire building will probably be constructed.
 In addition to this the dead grass now on the grounds will be removed and replaced with green grass. The trees will be given better attention and the grounds generally improved. It is thought probable that the super visor will also employ an additional man to assist in taking care of the grofnds.

FINES IMPOSED IN THE GAMBLING
 CASES
From Tuesdays DaiIy)

As a result of their conviction by a jury Friday on the charge of con- ducting a gambling game, B. H. Smith and B. NJ. Belchsr appeared before Judge Doe yesterday morning and were each sentenced to pay a fine of $200. The same fine was i'm posed upon Sidney Birch, who plead ed guilty, as did also W. R. Stone, whose fine was fixed at $50. An incident of the proceedings. was the speech made by Beleher, who stated to the court that in his thirty years residence in Arizona he had always been a law-abiding citizen and had ever striven to upbuild the commu- nity in which he resided. His only reason for permitting the games to open was because others were doing so, and it was necessary for him to do likewise to protect his business, as the games were an attraction that drew his regular patrons away from the house.
 Smith and Beleher yesterday after noon took an appeal to the supreme court of the territory and announced that they will fight the case to the court of last resort.

DEATH STOPS THE LIFE WORK IF
 CLARK Was Promoter of the San Carlos Irrigation
 Project
From Tuesdays Daily)

Death has robbed M. J. Clark of Michigan, multi-millionaire, of the crowning ambition of a long life of activity and success, the building of the San Carlos reservoir and the reclamation of 100000 acres of rich farm land in the Casa Grande valley. Clark died at at Globe from auto intoxication, caused by acute indi- gestion. which developed serious symp- toms near San Carlos last week. He was taken to Globe on a special train and his condition showed some i'm provement until he began to sink Monday night.
 With Clark at his bedside when the final summons came were his wife and adopted daughter. Everything possible was done but death would not be denied. Clark was 73 years of age and rose from a farm boy to one of the most influential business men in the west.
 Ten days ago Clark was in Tucson and later went to confer with Chas. R. Sligh, Daune E. Fox, Washington attorney, and A. c. Sieboth of Flor ence to meet with J. M. Jamison to plan the San Carlos project. All but Jamison left here and went to Pinal county.
 It was the first opportunity Clark had to see the lands that were to be brought under cultivation and as he drove from Florence to Casa Grande the man of millions, to whom big projects were commonplace, went into raptures as he saw and told of the possibility of building up a flour ishing community of happy homes.
 Though advanced in years, Clark insisted upon visiting the damsite at San Carlos with Sligh, Fox and Sic both. He again enthused over the $5,OOO,OOO project, and declared that if the scheme could be carried out it would be the crowning achieve ment of his long and active life.
 Clark and Sligh both came here from Grand Rapids, Mich, where they make their home and were the principal packers of the San Carlos project. Clark has been a dominant figure all over the northwest, being heavily interested in timber, farming and manufacturing. He has given hundreds of thousands to charity. One of his notable gifts was the founding and maintenance near Grand Rapids of a home for aged ministers. He gave land for the purpose that was worth a fortune.
 J. M. Jamison, who has known Clark for twenty years, and was a great admirer of this notable captain of industry, spoke as follows this morning.
 F'The taking off of MT. Clark, while a serious loss, in that it removes from our number a man of wide business experience in large affairs, one who in the twenty years I have

OLIVER ACCUSED IF ROBBING HIS
 ROOMMATE
Arrested Through Prompt Action of Sheriff
 Smith
(Fron Tuesdays Daily)

VI AOhA uCS0oy 'SoAAg
 Harry Oliver, who was arrested in Prescott last Friday by the sheriff $ office, it now appears is charged with the robbery of his roommate, Willis Greenfield, a young English man, with whom he formed an ac- quaintance on the way from Los An geles to Phoenix.
 On their arrival here last Sunday night, says the Phoenix Republican, they took a room together and on Wednesday morning when Greenfield got awake he found he had the room all to himself. He also discovered that his poeketbook containing $23O was gone, and other articles, inelud- ing silver back brush.
 The door of the room was locked from the outside so that Greenfield had to crawl out of the window. He notified the authorities without delay. Surmising that Oliver must have gone north, Deputy Sheriff Adams wired the sheriff's office at Prescott and re- quested the arrest of Oliver, whose description he gave. In a few min utes he received a reply that Oliver was in custody and that he had told the officer who arrested him that he knew why he was wanted. That was taken at the time to be an admis- sion of his guilt.
 Now, he says he did not rob Greenfield; that he did not slip away from him like a thief, but that before leaving the room he went to Greenfeld's bed,. turned the covering down and bade him goodbye. But Oliver had the silver backed brush in his possession when he was ar rested. He also had $10S. What he had done with the rest of his plum der was a mystery, but when he was brought to ihe jail yesterday Deputy Sheriff Adams went through his eff feets and found among other things a book of cigarette papers. Some fig uring with a lead pencil had been done on one of the leaves and the officer discovered the number "10S.' '' Below it was "119." There was one or two small numbers, bringing the total to about $23O, which hap pens to be the number of dollars lost by Greenfield.
 Oliver was asked what this figur- ing stood for. He said that though he had made the figures he did not recall what he meant by them.
 If Oliver is his real name he has an alias, for it was discovered that while he was in Phoenix he sent a bundle to a laundry and wrote the name of O. Hertzell on it.
 Soon after he was brough to jail yesterday he wanted to see an at torney, and when one was sent him Oliver gave him an order on the sheriff for $50. The sheriff was not sure that the money belonged to Oliver; in fact the presumption was that it did not. He therefore told the attorney that the money had already been marked "Exhibit A" for presentation on the part of the territory.
