An East Indian Verdict

not not be in any way shaken. When
the concluding stage had been reached
the following interchange of converse.

chronic complaint with him, and It

pected anything else OF him.
In the course of time Sam died The
FUNERAL arrangements had been made
and the announcement sent out, when.
owing to other engagements of the of.
nclating clergyman, it was found nee.
essary to change the time to an hour
ahead, and as q consequence the body
reached the cemetery considerably
earlier than the original schedule had
contemplated
AS the procession entered the gate
shd matted. the old gravedIgger, who
mad not been notified Of the change of
time. dropped his spade in surprise
and asked:

there?"
Upon being assured that it was. he
shook his head obviously and croaked:

The .Strain.on the Hello Girl.
The federal bureau recently reported
upon the labor conditions Of telephone
workers. laying particular stress on
the strain to which hello girls are sub
jected in busy hours. A moments
thought is enough to convince phone
users that there are periods when de-
mands for prompt response to calls are
unreasonable. Signals pour into CEN
trails faster than the service can re-
spond. and before a given series OF
calls can be attended to new calls
make it impossible for the operator to
catch up. Impatient re%iteration of calls
and fault finding only aggravate the
difficulty.
The crowded periods are just before
noon and before the close Of the bust,
ness day. People who can do 30 should
avoid the rush hours and leave the
wires free for imperative business.
The central operator is generally over
worked. and words wasted on scolding
for a delayed response only add to al
ready hapless conditions. II complaints
could be poured into the ears Of tele-
phone managers instead of helpless
s%ubordinates occasional seedlings
might avail. AS It stands they defeat
the Subscribers own ends and add to
the burden Of the overworked and un-
derpaid girl at the switchboard.

Inc conference report on the ad.
ministration railroad bill was present
ed to the senate by Chairman Elkins
Of the senate committee on interstate
commerce. 1t was also laid before the
house, but under the rules it cannot
be acted upon by the house until dis
posed of by the senate. The bill car
ries most of the features of the orig
inal administration measure except
the sections to permit, railroads to
make pooling agreements, to athorize
the government to regulate the issu.
ance of stocks and bonds and to per.
NIT a railroad to purchase the remain
ing stock of another line in which it
already controls SO per cent of the
stock.
The house has adopted a new rule
by which a majority of it's member
ship may at any time recall from a
committee any bill or resolution re-
.ferred to it and place the measure
upon the calendar for consideration.
Advocates of this new rule claim that
1t will effectively prevent the pigeon.
holing of any proposed legislation
which has the approval of a majority
of the house. The adoption of the
new rule was by a unanimous vote.
Senator Cullom introduced in the
senate a joint resolution postponing
until Jan. 1 next the payment Of the
corporation tax. The legislation is
desired because of the delay of the
supreme court of the United States
in determining the constitutionality of
the corporation tax provision of the

LOS ANGELES BUSINESS MEN

1OS o'NS116S COMlNG-Elliot Evans. who has been in Los Angeles for the past few, days. left yesterday for San Francisco after making arrangements for body of business men of Los Angeles to visit Phoenix early in March. MT. Evans writes that about 150 will come to Phoenix for the purpose of getting better acquainted with Phoenix men, and also to learn something about conditions in this valley so that future cooperation in industrial enterprises may be assured.
 A NEW PAPER IN THE FIELD The journalistic field of Phoenix is little fuller than it was, having been. made so yesterday by the ap- pearance of No. 1 of Vol. l of the Homebuilders Monthly This is the organ of the lately formed Home builders Association, and it will be issued monthly. As might be sup posed it's main purpose is to ex- ploit the association, but it does much more than that. It is also intended to be monthly record of the growth of the city and the surrounding country, and it will also be a re- Hector of real estate and business activity generally. It is neatly print ed on book paper and already has good line of advertising.
 ONE ON THE OFFIcER-Harry Friedman, one of the several humane officers. was hastily summoned to the lower part of town the other day by some one who reported that there were some horses standing nearby that had not been fed for several days. Mir. Friedman responded promptly. only to be directed to the. restive steeds fastened in the merry go-round. It was of course, a joke on the officer. but oft repeated such things would not serve a very good purpose. To be effective the officers of the society must respond quickly to all calls and it requires no clever ness to mislead an officer under such As trips are some times made at great personal incon- venience. jokers ought to think twice before sending well disposed persons on such a wild goose chase

 Twins forty seven years of age. who had been continuously in the company of each, were not separated even in jail last night. They are NJ. NJ. Hern and Darius Hern. who were picked up on the streets for being concerned in fight. They are strangers in the city who came here to participate in the splendors of aviation week and they came supplied with plenty of money for their enjoyment. But they are determined that the Ter ritory of Arizona shall get none of it without a struggle in consequence of their alleged infraction of the law. NJ. M. Hern had sl27.50 in cash and small checks aggregating s66. His brother had s165. Though they had hired a room and paid for it. both preferred to occupy cots in the jail at the expense of the county. They refused to give bond and announced that the case would be fought to- day

ATMOSPHERE TOO flNE-Arl- zona's atmosphere in many respects is the finest ever for the purposes of aviation. The weather Is more free from winds and cross currents usual ly than any place, but, according to Aviator Charles K. Hamilton. it was little too find yesterday for alti- tudinous performances. That is. it is so clear and light that his big machine ate it up too fast It couldn't get good mouthful. The wings could not find substance enough under them to get a good grip after he got up two or three hundred feet. He iDtimated that a little more moisture would really i'm prove it by adding to its density. wherefore it is suggested that the hose company go out to the grounds this morning and sprinkle the aviation track, for it is desirable that Mir. Ham, ilton be given fair chance with the automobile on the race track.

ATTACKED BY A liON-At the
 Carnival last night what might have
 been a tragedy was only averted by
 timely action on the part of a by stander. Young Carl Hagenback. who enters the lions den and fights Sul- tan. the man-eating lion. had just finished his stunt. Slamming the iron grating between the two cages he turned his back to walk away, when the lion made a spring and with one sweep of his paw ripped the coat from Hagenback's back. and at the same time ripped several inches of flesh A cool-headed spectator inn mediately picked up an iron rod near the cage and forced Sultan back by raining blows upon his head. No i'll results are expected from Hagenback's s wounds. which were Immediately dressed by physician. It is thought that Hagenback will be able to go into the lions den today as usual.
 ANOTHER OLD HORSE-The eli mate seems to be as we'll adapted to the longevity of live stock as it is for old age in the human family. It is noted that not only an occasional horse. but lots of the Arizona horses attain great age. The same may be said of cattle which are raised chiefly for their tenderloin steaks and of spring chickens that sometimes re- tain their youth for several seasons. The latest old horse 10 be reported Is one owned by Paolo Perrazzo, who bought the animal twenty years ago, the horse then being reputed as at least two years beyond the minimum voting age. Recently MT. Perazzo was complained of to one of the hu- mane officers as not keeping his horse in~ fine trim. It was said of him that while there was nothing par ticularly wrong with him he was lacking that rotundity of form that is supposed to characterize a well fed valley animal. Investigation dis closed that the horse had all he could eat but it had to be admitted that he was not very fat. When it was learned that he was 43 years old. the humane officer opined that possibly his age had somewhat af- fected his assimilative functions. and he would never again appear to be coltish.
