ELKS' SHOW-The Elks are begin
ming to talk about their annual show.
Tommy GetZ, who put or "A Night in
Bohemia" for the lodge last season,
has agreed to again direct a production
by local talent for the longhorns. 4 few
days ago the lodge sent him a letter
asking him when he could come and
what the name of the show would be
The costumes are already here, having
been sent up from Douglas where an
assistant of Mr.. Getz recently put on a
show.
A SOCIAL LIGHT.-The youngest
debutante in Phoenix society, and the
most popular girl there ever was in
the vicinity of her home is Miss Gwen
dolyn Louise Williams, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Williams, the form
er being the handspring of action
around the Ford hotel. Miss Gwendo-
lyn arrived from Babyland on Automo-
bile day during the fair, known on
the calendar as Thursday, November
10. and was so set back by learning
that her father had put up thousand
dollars for a horse race instead of
an automobile race that she has only
now sufficiently recovered to send
notice of her arrival to the news
papers. Dad" however, is a good
sport and let the Ford Hotel Stake
announced for last Saturday ride, de-
string to teach the young lady from
the start just who is to be boss in
the family. Miss Gwendolyn, how
ever, by her personal pulchritude and

general favor in and about the house
hold. and has set Bill Bailey" and his
Arizona handshake back to second
place in the procession. 1t is said
they hardly speak to each other; any
how, they do not talk the same Ian
guage yet. but Mr. and Mrs. Williams
say they have no doubt their differen-
ces will be harmonized in due season
and that each will find a sphere OF
usefulness in life.
ADVICE TO HORSE OWNERS
| Harry Friedman, who, as a member OF
! the humane society, is vigorous in
prosecution of cruelty TO animals, Is
not DESTROYS of being merely, a trouble
maker, his preference being to prevent
rather than punish cruelty. To that
end he makes a few suggestions tC
horse owners, things that good horse
men already understand, but that the
thoughtless or ignorant owner of the
| ordinary plug horse does not know OF
pay any attention to. His suggestions
are as follows: Have the horses
teeth examined by a veterinary occa-
sionally, every year or so at least
and if they are reported as not be-
| ing in god condition have them at
tended to- Buy a dimes worth OF
saltpetre and give the horse a tea
spoonful once a month in warm
bran mash. Grease the wagon often
during muddy weather. Get a few
barley sacks and make a horse blan-
ket for use when the horse is stand
| ing either in the barn or on the
street during damp, wintry nights. The
sacks are of coarse mesh and from a
sanitary point are even better than a
fancy blanket unless the weather be
Very cold. especially if the horse be
very warm when blanketed. BY fol-
lowing these simple rules the horse
will look fatter, sleeker, have better
health and will require less feed than
where all manner of needs are sought
to be overcome merely by keeping the
manger full.

A THANKSGIVING THOUGHT

A THANKSGIVING THOUGHT
The Crittentcn Home management
calls attention to the near approach
of Thanksgiving and expresses the
hope that the people Of Phoenix will
this year be as thoughtful as in
former years, of the inmates of that
institution. The Home is doing a
great work and has a constantly
changing family that must be pro-
viGed for through the charity of
those who are more fortunate in
their material surroundings. The
Home is in constant need of some
thing, in fact of almost everything.
That which is not needed today will
be needed tomorrow. Always, things
eatable, especially things not imme-
diately perishable, like canned fruits,
preserves, staple groceries, etc, can
be used to good advantage in any
quantity and at any time. There is
often great need of clothing for chill
dren and girls. The needs are not
larger just at Thanksgiving than
other times. usually but during the
seasons of thankfulness and gift
making while others are enjoying
lIlOSt utliSnllul CuSlblllS liitN dIt
more inclined to be thoughtful and
liberal, wherefore the reminder Those
who may be inclined to make gifts
and have no time to take them to
the Home may have them sent for
by telephoning the Home or by leav-
ing their donations at Wakelin's gro
Gerry.
LIFE INSU RAN CE-There are
many kinds of life insurance in the
world but John R. Norton probably
has the most unique policy in exist
ence.- Sometime ago he told Ben
Peterson, the bootblack expert at the
Cabinet stand, that if he would name
that latest baby after him he would
give him a heifer. Ben fulfilled his
part of the contract, but Mr. Nor
toms cattle were all down at Buckeye
and he never found a convenient
time to bring in the heifer. Finally
he was taken sick and went to the
hospital for an operation for appendi-
citis A short time ago he emerged
in fine feather and Ben dunned him
for the cow Mr.. Norton said the
only reason he had not sent her in
before was that he had a premonition
for a long time that he would have
| to be operated on and it might be
a close call for him. He wanted all
the favorable influences possible
working in his behalf He said that
while he lay suffering in the hospital
it was a great comfort to him to
know that Ben and his wife and his
numerous children were all pulling
for him. He thinks perhaps that did
as much good as the medicine. He
is now ready to give Ben the COW.
or would be only for one thing and
that is that he is now afraid he may
get the govt or a ringbOne or SPAWN
or something and have to go back to
the hospital. He can't afford to lose
the pull that brought him through
before. Anxious as he is to give Ben
the COW he don't feel safe i'm giving
up his life insurance,

Attorney Fred n. Moore stated
over the telephone from Occur

new trial in the FiIigno case would

he did not desire Miss Elizabeth
Gurley Flynn to make any state

ed at 10 o'clock last night by the

for the jury to arrive at conclu-
sion, and then only a compromise
was effected.

the case was given to the jury, un-

the jury stood seven for conviction
and five for the acquittal of both
defendants. Following the report

3 o'clock of the inability of the
jury to agree, Judge KEENAN, sent
them back into the jury room. The
following four hours of delibera-
ton resulted in compromise
However, one of the jurors
stated this morning that the five
jurors who stood for acquittal were
for both defendants, believing both
of them guiltless, and that the COM
promise was only effected because
it was pointed out that another
trial would cost the county about
$4,000, with practically the same re-
suit.
"Of course sympathy for the lit
tie woman figured somewhat in the
verdict" stated the juror, "but we
also took into consideration the
fact that Filigno was the man on
the ground; he was the fellow who
sent the telegram to Gurley Flynn,
asking her to come here to help
the fight, and that consequently he
was the greater offender"
