.ELKS' TAKE ACTION
 AND GOAT DISAPPEARS
Lot at Second Avenue and Adams Streets to be Manicured.
The goat has departed.

The goat has departed.
 When the horned ruminant that formerly made his habitat on lot at the corner of Second avenue and Adams street, was recently interview ed by this paper, it was not thought that the interview would cause his early demise and deep regret is felt on this account. It is even rumored that he has gone the way of other goats and will shortly be served up with mint sauce-an anomaly at which his spirit must rebel
 The resolution passed at a recent meeting of the Womans club, asking the Elk's to look after the manicuring of the lot mentioned, which is owned by them, was acted on at the follow ing meeting of the lodge. A commit mittee was appointed to look into the matter. In order that certain changes might be made so that the lot can be cleared up to better advantage, a tenant was requested to move This he refuses to do, and the Elks are now wondering what they are going to do about it. One concession, how ever, was obtained, and that was the disposal of the goat.

BAD DAY FOR FIRES
 THREE WERE STARTED
One Little Family Burned Out and
 Much Other Property Endangered.

Yesterday was a busy day for the
 fire department. There were three | fire alarms turned in between
 o'clock and 6 o'clock, each necessitat- ! ing a long run and the afternoon was strenuous one for both horses and men. The day was notable for what might have been rather than for what was, for the wind blew hard all day and the general conditions were as favorable as they ever can be in this community for big blazes when a fire starts. It is pleasing to announce that the losses were not great in any instance yesterday, reckoned in dol lars and cents, though one fire wiped out the entire belongings of a family living in a three-room house.
 The first alarm came about 1920 D. m. and was turned in from near Fourth and Mckinley streets where four houses all had an equal start for destruction through the crossing of the electric wires. The telephone boxes in the houses began to sizzle and sputter and burn and the alarm was turned in, but before the depart ment arrived some one had cut the wires and the flames were eXtinguish- ed by those already on the ground, with no great damage except to the telephone service. One of these houses is the property occupied by the family of Phil Ensign. MT En- sign fortunately happened to be at home and early mixed it with the fire fiend, winning his point. but burning his hands considerably.
 o1a 4 and o'clock and was turned in be- cause of a burning brush pile near Eighteenth avenue and the Yuma road. There was danger to some of the nearby residences owing to the high wind, though the fire had got within control before the department arrived.
 The department had only got back as far as Seventh avenue when the locomotive whistles in the Santa F'e yards announced the third fire, their jerky refrain being quickly taken up by the electric light whistle and the fire bell. This proved to be a house at 40S West Lincoln street, owned by Wm. Glore, who lives at 709 Monte zuma Place, and occupied by Mrs. Ramona Santa Cruz and children. Mrs. Santa Cruz was not at home at the time being employed at the New York Store, and it is believed the fire caught from the kitchen stove. II was a three room frame house and was totally destroyed only d few charred pieces of the framework re- maining. The contents were also totally destroyed or so nearly so as to be considered a total loss.
 The department did we'll however, in keeping the fire from the adjoin ing property, on account of the high wind that was blowing.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH <
 0F HAROLD HAMM
A Former Phoenix Boy Came In Fatal
 Contact With Live Wire fn Seattle.

Though lacking direct verification it is quite certain that Harold Hamm, a nephew of Mir. and Mrs. George A. Mintz of this city. was accidentally killed in Seattle on Tuesday by con- tact with a live wire. The news came Tuesday night in a telegram to Sims Ely from a friends in California who knew that MT. Hamm had an uncle here but did not know his name, and asked MT. Ely to look him up. The party sending the message was merely repeating information from a friend of the dead man in Seattle and gave his name as Finley. MT. Mintz sent sev- eral telegrams to Finley yesterday but got no response and the reason for it was cleared up in a letter received by Mir Ely from his California core spondent last night.
 It appears from the letter that the name of Mir. Hamms friend was Elm ley and not Finley hence he probably had not received MT. Mintz's tele- grams. The letter says that Enley wired the writer that Hamm had an uncle in Phoenix but he did not know the name and seeking it had wired to MT. Hamm's California correspondent. Mir. Hamm was only temporarily To- cated in Seattle and doubtless had few of his effects and probably no letters from relatives. with him.
 F.. V. Lybrook, another uncle of MT. Hamm. left last night for Los Angeles where his two sisters, aunts of the dead man now reside. and will doubt less receive more information there and if necessary will proceed to Seattle and bring the body back as far as Ven tura, Cal. where it will be laid beside his father and mother and his grand parents. in the family lot.
 Harold Hamm was about 27 years old and was well Known in Phoenix previous to about six years ago when he left here for California His parents died in California while he was still a small boy and he made his home with MT. and Mrs. Mintz for many years. or until he had finished his courses in the Phoenix schools and attended the University of Arizona for a year or two. Then having arrived at mans es- tate he left for California taking charge of the property interests left
 
 living most of the time in Los Angeles and vicinity. He always possessed a bent for mechanics and for some years has devoted his talents especially to a study of electricity being considered good electric lineman. It was doubt less in the pursuance of his regular duty in this capacity that he came in fatal contact with live wire though thus far there is absence of any de- tails whatever
 In the line of his work he has re- gently been in a number of the north coast cities and like most young men of his age his correspondence with rel atives had grown infrequent and his address was frequently changing.
 "Hallie" Hamm, as he was known by all who attended the Phoenix schools Of only a few years ago. and by most of the residents of the city at that time, was popular and well liked boy Of good habits and high ideals. devoted to his books and ambitious to make his life success. His untimelv death in the early days of manhood, will be widely and sincerely mOurned

GETTING READY TO COLLECT
TAX ON CORPORATIONS
Officers Are Preparing for the Golden
Harvest.

Washington, Oct. 1S.-In reply to ex-
pressions of appreciation from New
York and elsewhere that the collection
of the new corporation tax amendment
by the Government will be both diff
cult and inequitable, Royal E. Cabell,
Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
said:
Secretary Mac Veagh, at his summer
home, has given the closest attention
even to the details of the regulations
under which the law will be enforced.
l have just returned from long cou-
ference with him on the subject and
he has talked with other officials of the
department regarding it.
while we do not wish to seem to
be framing these regulations behind
closed doors, it is not advisable to
make them public until we have finish
ed the work of preparation. I may
say, however, that the Secretary be-
lieves-and and other officials of the
department thoroughly agree with
him--that many of the difficulties
which seem to be anticipated will be
found to have disappeared"

Mr. CHM is to contribute $4,000 an

are working with Mr.. CHM in the
cause.

independently of the professional
peace advocate and has tried to disas-
sociate his project from that of the

BROWN IS FREED UPON
CHARGE OF MURDER.
Resulting in Killing of Matt
Walker.

! Mr. John Brown who, in self de-
fense. as shown from the evidence ad-
duced struck down and killed Mr..
Matt Walker, near Americus, on Fri
day evening last, was discharged from
custody By Judge Charles r. Crisp,
of the city court, upon a committal
trial of the case yesterday.
The testimony showed that he
struck down the deceased in the pro-
lection of his own life
Four witnesses to the tragedy.
Messrs. Walter Hagerson, E. r.
Brown, Andrew Jackson, besides a
colored witness. gave testimony at the
trial yesterday.
This, in substance, was to the ef-
feet that Mr. Walker, who operated
a public gin, became enraged at Mr..
Brown for criticizing the ginning of
his cotton. Walker picked up bar of
iron and struck Brown, who grappled
with him to prevent further injury
from the weapon.
Brown finally pushed Walker from
him and retreated, whereupon the
latter hurled the iron at Brown and
started for his axe, in the shop near
by, with the expressed intention of
doing him further injury.
1t was then that Mr.. Brown picked
up the iron rod at his feet and dealt
Walker one blow upon the head, fell
ing him. The statements of the wit
nesses, together with that of Brown,
were substantially to this effect, and
after summing up the evidence Judge
Crisp dismissed the warrant.
Mr.. Brown was represented at the
trial by Col w. T. Lane
Several people from the locality of
the trouble attended the preliminary
hearing of the case here yesterday.

LEE COUNTY PLANTATION

County Man.
(Albany Herald.)

tAlDdHy t1efdlu.J
Mr. John w, Arnold has sold his
plantation in Lee county, eight miles
northwest of Albany, to Mr.. Boyn-
ton, of Doerun. The price paid was
$40 per acre.
The Arnold place originally con-
sisted of something over 1900 acres
but Mr.. Arnold sold off about $50
acres of it two or three years ago
1t is one of the best plantations in
Lee county, and is in the rich oaky
woods region.
Mr. Arnold's only reason for selling
the plantation is that his health is
such that he cannot give it his per-
sonal attention and he has found thai
it is not profitable to farm by proxy
with negro labor.
We learn that Mr.. Boynton intends
to move onto the place and make it his
home.
