Charged With Using Money Which Belonged to the
 City Treasury
IRREGULARITIES IN
 OFFICIAL POSITION
George Feagles Arraigned Before Justice Court
 and Bond Fixed

Charged with appropriating public money to his own use, George A. Feag les, former city poundmaster, is in jail, awaiting an examination before Judge Hinson Thomas on felony charge.
 According to number of complaints which have been made to City Clerk Welch, Feagles committed many irreg- ularities while in office, through his al legged failure to turn into the city treas ury the receipts of his office and it is not improbable that additional charges will be made against him within short time.
 Feagles arrests yesterday came as the result of warrant sworn out against him by A. N. Hetherington, charging him with appropriating for his own use the sum of $9, which should have been turned into the city treasury.
 Several months ago, while Heather ington was out of the city, Feagles i'm pounded horse and colt belonging to him. The animals were later sold to a local livery stable for $l250. Accord ing to the pound regulations, $9 of this amount should have been turned into 'HC Nity tiCaouiy, lo bC hclu TUT pCllOu of six months, and to be turned over to the owner of the stock, if he appear ed in that time. No record of any such money having ever been turned in can be found at the city treasurer s office.
 Upon returning to this city and find, ing that the animals had been impound- ed and sold, HetheringtOn went to Feagles and made inquiry regarding he proceeds of the sale. It is claimed that Feagles agreed to return the money which he should have turned into the city treasury, but later declined to do so. A warrant for Feagles' arrest was then sworn out by Hetherington and he was placed in custody.
 Feagles was arraigned before Judge Hinson Thomas yesterday. His bail was fixed at $500, but as he was unable to give the necessary surety on his bond, he was locked up in jail.

out the construction of additional bridges.
 From San Carlos, on the dividing line between Gila and Graham counties, the roads leading to valley points are in fairly good shape and by the i'm provement of few miles of road be- tween Globe and San Carlos, it is be- leved that facilities for travel between this city and the valley would be ma terially increased, at very small cost.
 It is expected that active develop ments in the road improvement plan will be made in the next few weeks and that the road will be improved some time during the coming summer.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1910-04-20

Several weeks ago Feagles position as city poundmaster was declared vac, ant by reason of the fact that he de- clined to make the proper report to the council of animals impounded by him. His affairs were in a very chaotic condition when he was relieved of the office. One blank receipt book which should have been used when any i'm pounded animal was removed from the pound by it's owner had never been used and could not be found by Feagles, when he was asked to deliver to the city the various books entrusted to him.
 It is claimpd that Hetherington 's case is only one of number in which Feagles has failed to turn over to the city treasurer moneys collected by him and that other warrants will be sworn out against him is generally believed.

That the winter wheat has sus-

eral men who own farms and who
have been in the country, express the
opinion that there has been damage

by favorable weather and the proper
amount Of rain.
While 1t is yet too early to esti-
mate the damage and no wheat crop
is lost until the binder is started to

damage has been done. A

After the resolutions were passed
several phases of the postoffice Ques-

that the present quarters are entirely
inadequate for the office, that there is
not sufficient room for the employees

Wheat Prospects
Look Doubtful

froze over the fields, the soil heavcd
up and left the roots exposed. In
heavy ground the cracks are Of CON.
siderable width, and deep, and permit
the cold air to 60 far below the sllr-
face. II Is thought that II farmers
had rolled their wheat ilelde duiing
the recent warm spell II iSGnld hagh
been helped to some extent.
Just what the outcome will be Il
hazardous as a prediction. II the
weather should become warm eprly
with favorable conditions and II
rains would fall which would tend to
fill up the cracks In the ground with
dirt, and give the roots chance TO
recuperate, there would be q fair
chance for good crop yet, the
farmers say. on the othes hand II
the spring Is late the chances for a
crop are poor.
, Wheat has sometimes seemed very
hard to kill. In the last ten years
there have been several times when
the wheat prospects Of the entire
state Of Kansas did not seem to be
worth the three proverbial dimes.
Conditions became favorable and
erstwhlle dead wheat came to life,
good healthy plants, and
produced a good yield. Since the
Kansas farmer has been growing the
Russian hard wheat the plants seem
to stand more hardships than when
the less hardy varieties were culti-
waited.
