Starting with practically no clue. Policeman Egley of the local force un- travelled the mystery of the theft of the Hupmobile belonging to w. T. Barr early in the morning of September 15 He has placed under arrest John Stall of Chandler, and William Spitz, of this city, lodging them in the county jail Stall faces a charge of burglary, it be- ing alleged that he and another young man who has since disappeared. broke into the TranscOntinental garage and took the machine. Spitz is charged with grand larceny, having admitted that he took the machine from resort on South Seventh avenue and drove it back to the garage.
 The theft of the machine was re- ported to the police Sunday morning, September 15. It was stated by MT Barr and John A McCOndra. proprietor of the garage. that whoever took the machine out had ruined three tires. tore the inner tubes and damaged the back curtain. It was estimated that the damage would exceed $50. Me Condra said that he had not left the garage on the night before until 11:3O o'clock and that Barr's machine was there at that time. Entrance had been effected by lifting a hook, fastening the door. Whoever took the machine was something of a mechanic for the switch key had been removed and the thief had managed to connect the wires directly with the magneto
 Egley learned later that two young men had visited a South Avenue re- sort early Sunday morning in a drum ken condition. Inmates of the place heard one of them request Spitz to take the automobile to the garage They were certain Spitz had been told that the machine had been taken with out permission.
 Spitz was placed under arrest and readily told all he knew, but he was unable to give the names of the young men for whom he had returned the machine. He said be believed they lived in Chandler.
 Visiting Chandler. Egley found that two young men of that place had been in Phoenix at the time the machine was taken He succeeded ir locating one of the men when he came to Phoe nix and placed him under arrest. The name of the other young man was later secured but when Egley went to Chandler to arrest him. he found that he had been paid by his employer that morning and had left for parts un- known. Spitz will be given prelim- mary hearing tomorrow before Justice Johnstone and the hearing of Stall will be set for a later date.

WHAT THE "
 REALLY |S
New Englander Expected to See a Prayer Meet ing But Found a Prosper Ous Club House; Secretary Graham Tells Story

One Way Out" is the title of an exceedingly interesting book by Will liam Carleton It is a discussion of the economic difficulties and tri- umphs of the middle class New Eng lander. MT Carletons discovery of the Young Mems Christian associa- tion in Denver in the new home to which he had emigrated, and his inn pressions of it make interesting read ing. An extract is reproduced here with, being the contribution of J. Landrum Graham. general secretary of the Phoenix Y M. C. A.
 T went to the Y M C. A build ing Here again I was surprised to find a most attractive interior. It looked like the inside of a prosperous club house. I don't know what I ex- pected but I wouldn't have been startled if I'd found a hall filled with wooden settees and a prayer meet ing going on. I had a lot of such preconceived notions knocked out of my head in the next few years.
 Tn response to my questions I re- ceived replies that made me fell I'd strayed by mistake into some uni versity For that matter it was 9 university. There was nothing from the primary class in English to a professional education in the law that a man couldn't acquire here for a sum that was astonishingly small. The instructors were, many of them; the same men who gave similar courses at a neighboring college. Not only that, but the hours were so ar ranged as to accommodate workers of all classes. If you couldn't attend in the daytime, you could at night. I was a5tonished to think that this op- portunfty had always been at my hand and l had never suspected it.. In the ten years before I was mar ried I could have qualified as a lawyer or almost anything else.
 This was not all; a young man took me over the building and show ed me the library, the reading room. rooms where the young men gath cred for games, and then down stairs to the well equipped gymnasium with it's shower baths. Here a boy could take a regular course in gymnasium work under a skilled instructor, or if he showed any skill, devote himself to such sports as basketball running, baseball or swimming
 Tn addition to these adVanta ges amusements were provided through the year in the form of lectures, anna teur shows and music In the sum mer special opportunities were of fered for out-door sports. Moreover, the association managed summer camps where for a nominal fee the boys could enjoy the life of the woods
 "A boy must be poor indeed who could not afford most of these oppor- tunities And, if he was out of work the employment bureau conducted here would help him to a position. I came back to the main office wonder ing still more how in the world I'd ever missed such chances all these years It was a question 1 asked myself many times during the next few months. And the answer seemed to lie in the dead level of that other life We never litter our eyes; we never looked around us.

furnishing the department with nee

lack of funds. Buying property for

enterprise, and the people who

be expending their money wisely.
The department decided to call off

with the plans being made by the

MIR. COINER'S
APPOINTMENT,

The official record of the proceed
ings of the republican convention al
Aberdeen on May Is. 1912, should
furnish the United States Senate
convincing argument against the con
firmation of Beverly W Coiner, OF
Tacoma, who has been appointed T.
nited States District Attorney by
President Taft.
Even the friends and supporters of
Coiner do not claim that his ap-
pointment was urged because Of his
legal equipment and fitness for the
position. He was named solely
because of his service to the bosses
Of the Washington republican ma
chine. Those services were of a
character that demanded high re-
ward, but that reward should have
come from the beneficiaries of the
Coiner method of running con-
yention and not bestowed at the ex-
pense of the taxpayers.
Coiner demonstrated at Aberdeen
his absolute domination by political
bosses. He received their instruc-
tions and carried them out with a
zeal that would have been commend
able If used in a worthy cause. His
violation of all precedents and rules
of procedure by state central COM
mittees gave the reactionaries at
Chicago their excuse for stealing the
delegation for Taft. His record in
that case should defeat his confirm
alton.
We wish to commend to Colonel
Coiner's consideration the decision
of the Supreme court of Kentucky
in a contested election case. The
citation is "Scholl VS.. Bell. ky.,)
1Q2 S. W, 262." This is an ex-
tract from the courts findings
mo people are wholly civilized
where a distinction is drawn be-
tween stealing an office and steal
ing a purse. No truly honest man
will be satisfied with an office to
which his title is not as valid as
that to the homestead which shell
tiers his family and to him who know
ingly holds an office obtained by
fraud, force or chicane will ever be
applied the language OF the drama
tist of old. Now does he feel his ti-
tie hang loose about him. like gi-
ants robe upon dwarfish thief.
