GETTING READY AGAIN
FOR ANOTHER PLUCK
Mo Wonder Copper is Going Up When
Phoenix Is Already Digging More
Cups for Los Angeles
"Easies"

Wise, prudent and economical auto
mobile dealers should at once begin to
cut down their home expenses, deprive
the little ones of their candy and dolls,
give strict instructions to their wives
that there are to be no foolish Christ
mas trees and hanging stockings at the
fireplace for this year; there VIII be no
diamond earrings or sealSkin coats for
her this Christmas at least, and where
heretofore there might have been plum
pudding on the table for the dessert
course, this will have to be eliminated
for the present.
Naturally the question will be asked
"Why this sudden rush to money saw
ing?"
Well, the generous people of Phoenix
Ariz, are around looking at a few
more copper and plated cups for pres
entation to the automobile dealers who
strip their two to seven thousand dol
lar cars, break up steering knuckles
smash crank shafts, lie round In the
desert for twenty-four hours, lose
equipments from heavily laden chassis
and a few tri1ing things such as these
that they may have the privilege oi
going to the territorial capital, ant
there enjoy the hospitality of three tC
the glare of tallow dips and oil lamp:
at four to ten dollars per day.
In other words preparations are go
ing on already for another Ph0eni2
race for 1910--that is-the Phoenix peo'
pie are arranging the matter So fal
there appears to be no savage rusf
upon the part of Los Angeles dealers il
the same direction. When a man get!
trimmed once he generally remembers
where the trimming came off.
There are a number of first clas!
jewelry and silverware establishment
in Los Angeles, where exquisitely de
signed copper and silver cups may bt
had at exceedingly moderate prices
and the route to them not by any
means as hazardous as via Chuckawalls
or Ehrenberg, and travel upon beauti
fully asphalted surfaces without danger
of reaching rooms where all but th'
breath is extracted from the occupau
during fair periods.

MANY PERSONS WILL
WATCH AUTO RACES
Apperson Is Favorite in Betting, with
Buick Second Choice-5elleVe
Cars viii Not Make
20 Minutes

REDLANDS, Nov. "a. = Redlands
hotels are this evening crowded to
their utmost capacity with persons
waiting to witness the automobile races
which will be held here tomorrow. All
the entries have arrived with the excep-
ton of the Comet, and all appear to be
in excellent condition for the run.
Large amounts have been wagered on
the outcome, but it is not believed that
last years time of 24:30 will be lowered
to twenty minutes. Preliminary trips
today found the course much improved
over that of last year, many of the
sharp turns having been cut down.
The general impression is that Han
shue in the Apperson will win, al
though the Nikrent brothers in the
Buick have a strong following owing to
their showing in the Phoenix race. A
rumor is current that the Corbin made
a secret trip in twenty minutes. A
heavy fog prevails, but clear weather
IS looked forward to for the races. The
Isotta was compelled to withdraw from
the races, which include five automo-
bile and two motorcycle events, on ac-
count of inability to secure steering
knuckle.

GIRL FREED ON
MURDER CHARGE
ALMA BELL ACQUITTED BY
AUBURN JURY
SHOT SWEETHEART WHO WOULD
NOT MARRY HER
Jurors Hold That Young Woman Was
Insane at Time of the Crime
and Rational Just
Afterward
IAssocIated Pressl

AUBURN, Cal, Nov. Palma Bell
was acquitted today of the murder Of
Joe Armes, her sweetheart, on June 5
of this year.
The jury was out only short time.
The verdict was rendered on the
ground that Alma Bell was insane at
the moment of the shooting, but was
sane Immediately before and immedt-
ately after the homicide. The instruc-
tions Of Judge Arnot were to this eff
feet.
After the verdict Alma Bell was re-
leased from custody and received the
congratulations of her attorneys,
friends and members of the family.
Her brothers declared this morning
that they would send her to relatives
in the east where her history is not
known.
The Jury took three ballots, the first
being eight for acquittal, one for man
slaughter, one for murder in the sec
ond degree and two blank. The second
ballot was two for conviction, ten for
acquittal, and the third ballot being
unanimous for acquittal.
History of Case
Alma Bell was accused of shooting
her sweetheart, Joe Armes, on the
night of June 5 last. The girl called
Armes from the cabin, where he was
sleeping with his brothers, and shortly
afterward a pistol shot was heard from
the direction in which the couple had
gone.
Frank and Manuel Armes, brothers
of Joe, and Tony Grinko, friend Of
Joe, rushed out of the cabin and found
Armes dead body lying in the road.
The sheriff was notified, and the next
morning he found Alma Bell crouching
in the brush near the scene of the
shooting.
After the shooting Miss Bell went to
a nearby ranch house and told the IN
mates that she had killed her sweet
heart. She left, but returned later and
said she knew he was not dead because
she could hear him crying.
She left for the second time, and was
not seen again until she was found the
next morning by Sheriff McAuley..
on the night of the shooting Anna
Bell came to the cabin occupied by
Joe Armes and his brother and de-
manded admittance that she might ex-
plain some stories which she asserted
had been told about her.
Stayed In Cabin
After some parley she was admitted,
and remained in the cabin two hours.
On leaving she persuaded her sweet
heart to accompany her and, according
to the testimony of the brother and
Grinko, a shot was heard moment
later.
Immediately following the shot the
two men asserted that Joe cried out
"Oh, boys; oh, boys" and that Alma
Bell exclaimed, GOOD by, Joe."
According to the story OF the sheriff,
the girl admitted the killing and as
serted that she fired the shot because
her sweetheart had Tilted her. She ad-
mitted to the sheriff that she had been
intimate with Joe Armes.
During the trial the defense sought
to prove that Alma Bell was betrayed
under the promise of marriage. Ex-
perts testified that under the circum-
stances the girl had no sense OF right
or wrong when she did the shooting.
Alma Bells own story or the shoot
ing was not brought out during the
trial.
The trial began the first week in No
yember and ended at 8 o'clock today.

PENNSYLVANIA AND CORNELL
READY FOR ToDAY's GAME

PHILADELPHIA, Nov 24.--A heavy
sleet and rain storm today permitted
the Pennsylvania and Cornell teams to
take only light practice, for their game
tomorrow. The Ithacans contented
themselves with a long walk, while the
Quakers held a short signal practice
at Winslow. Weather conditions favor
the heavier Cornell while Pennsylvania
hopes to follow precedent and leave the
field with a victory. There has been
practically no betting. Every seat has
heen sold.

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-Detectives of
Chicago and the authorities of Lake

suit of a mystery including in its ele-
ments the identity and the present
whereabouts of four people-one a Wom-
an-and the breaking and burying of
an automobile in Jasper county, mo-,
within ten miles of Water Nauey,
where three wheels and other parts o.
an automobile were found in the Kan

OF Mrs. Christian Justedt.
In soft spts" about this house Sher-
if Thomas Grant of Crown Point dis
covered parts of an automobile which
apparently tailed with the wheels
found in the Kankakee river.
Further search developed the ton
neau of a machine covered with grain
ir Mrs. Justedts barn. In the house in
Mrs. Justedt's wood box were found
pieces of the wood work of an automo-
bile.
The shop. sales, state and other num-
bers which might have served for iden-
tification were missing.
Mrs. Justedt was asked about the
matter. According to Sheriff Grant.
the woman said that about four weeks
ago her son and her daughter from Chi
cago, with the owner of the car and
another man, came to the place and
went away again.
Sheriff Grant, after obtaining infor-
nation that at least one man spent
three nights at Mrs. Justedt's and de-
stroyed the automobile, left q constable
to watch the situation at the farm.

HARTMAN WILL NOT
TALK OF ROOSEVELT
RAILROAD MAGNATE REFUSES
TO GIVE OPINION
Says He Has His Idea of Former
President, but Does Not
Care to Express 1t
Publicly

TUCSON, Ariz., March 4.-E. H. Har-
riman was seen today by an Associated
Press representative and asked for an
expression on the passing out of Office
of Theodore. Roosevelt.
LAS a member of the Ananias club,
and one in high standing, and also one
OF the original undesirable citizens, will
you express an opinion on Mr.. Roose-
velt?"
Mr.. Hartman answered: II have an
opinion regarding Mr.. Roosevelt, and
so have about eighty-f1ve millions OF
other persons in the country, but l do
not care to express mine. l Will say,
however, you could not guess that opin-
ion, and it would do you no good to
attempt to do so.'
He had no observation to make on
the proposed African trip other than to
say any former president is privileged
to go where he pleases. Concerning
Taft he remarked that he did not sup
pose President Taft is greatly con-
cerned or interested in any statement
he might make.
He arrived at Tucson at 8 O'Clock
this morning in a five-car special train.
In the party or with him were Mrs.
Hartman, Julius Krutschnitt, DR..
Dickinson, Mr.. Harrimans physician,
and others. He was met at FL Paso by
Superintendent w. H. Whalen of the
Tucson division. He had a conference
with Traffic Director J. S. Stubs.
Mr.. Hartman is undecided whether
he will remain longer than today, al
though he is delighted with the winter
climate of this city and it may tempt
him to remain here several days. He
will proceed from here over the new
lines to Sonora and Sinaloa, accom-
panied by Epes Randolph and General
Manager r. H. Ingram. He says he Is
in the southwest for rest and recuper-
ation, and already is feeling much re-
freshed. He will go to California after
his return from Mexico.

Gently resigned. He is also a director
of the Commercial National bank and
other Chicago corporations.
Mr.. MacVeagh is distinguished in
Chicago not only as a most successful
merchant, but especially for his active
work in behalf of civic progress and
reform. He became president of the
Citizens association of Chicago in 1874,
and continued to hold the office for
several years afterward, making it the
instrument for many important political
reforms. At the head of the bureau
of charities he added greatly to the
effectiveness of that organization, and
as chairman of the Municipal Art
league and otherwise he has been a
faithful worker for the identifying of
Chicago, by extension of the boulevard
system and in many other ways. He
has also taken an active part in the
work of the National Civic federation.
Mr.. MacVeagh was until recently affil-
lated with the Democratic party and in
1895 he was nominated in convention
by the Democracy of Illinois for the
United States senate. He made cam
yass of the state, but was defeated in
legislature. He married Miss Emily
Eames.
