JOHN LINDELL is
ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.
(From Fridays Daily

NIIOIH TElQdy OdllyJ
John Lindell, proprietor of the
Palace Hotel, was accidentally shot
last night in the right hand while
attempting to prevent J. H. Stephens,
the well-known cattleman from
shooting Al Struggled.
Stephens and Struggled had
quarreled while drinking at the bar,
and the former was knocked down
by blow from the latter, it is
said. After washing the wound on
his face, he returned to the bar and
the men again became involved in
a wordy alteration. Stephens sud
denly whipped out a double-a.tion
revolver of the bulldog type, and
leveled it at Springfield Lindell and
Clarence Stewart who were bystand-
ers quickly sprung forward and
threw down Stephens arm just as
two shots were fired. One of them
entered the palm of Lindell's hand
and the other proved harmless
Deputy Sheriff Joe Young appeared
on the scene and took Stephens into
custody, but later he was released
upon bail consisting OF a check for
5000 endorsed by Barney Smith and
J. w. Stewart.
LindelPs hand was dressed by a
physician and it is believed that the
wound is not serious.

LAST OF HORSE CARS
ARE TO BE BANISHED

NEW YORK, June 25.-After
many reports that New York, claim
ING the most up TO date transporta-
ton system in the world Ia claim
at which thousands of strap hangers
have scoffed) was finally to see the
last of its antiquated horse cars, the
statement is now authoritatively made
that the last of these prehistoric
vehicles is soon to vanish. Thus will
vanish the last vestige of the first
evidence of the city's rail trans
portation service.
To many people who frequent only
the heart of the city the fact that
horse cars are still running here
will come as a surprise. As a mat
ter of fact while New York has a
considerable horse car system, it is
operated only on a few cross streets
and on a belt line running along
both water fronts which are seldom
visited by the majority OF the city's
residents.
Now, however, the most modern
storage battery cars are to supplan;
the ancient vehicles, and with their
coming will vanish number of
characters well known along the
water fronts, since some of the
drivers have been humping around
the city behind their horses for
more than generation. and one
has been a car driver on. the same
run for no less than forty-two years.
He has seen a good many noted
people step on and off his car. There
was Horace Greeley, for instance.
who rode every day on the Belt
Line, and had his arms always full
of a fat. bullying pillow with which
to make softer his seat For the
cars of those days had no wicker or
springs i'll their seats, but sheer
Stats of wood, which jounced and
clattered with each bump on the
tracks.

PHOENI XANNEXES
LOOP AUTO RACE
(From Sundays Daiiy.)

away the main prize for the twice

has travelled over 100000 miles of all
kinds of roads and which is yet able

ter the Studebaker, made the juno
ton at 1918. Prescott on the first
lap at l0:55, Junction on the second
lap at 1923 and Prescott again in
the time above noted.
The race was a vivid reminder OF
the little negro babies sitting on the
wall. They kept dropping out one
by one until there were only two
left, the winner of the race and AL
bert HAITI in his Elmore. The latter
got second place but he was like the
bay who stood at the head of the
class, it happening that he CHANGED
to be the only member of the class.
HAITI had more than his share OF
hard luck. His timer went on the
blink and besides he had to limp
around the Loop on three of his
four cylinders, but he gamely kept
his car going and therefore came
within the money. His time was
three hours and more The Chal-
mers, Studebaker, Perry and Stearns-
Knight fell by the wayside at veri-
Gus points during the first and sec
ond laps and did not reach the city
until several hours after the sun had
passed the meridian.
The Studebaker had more than its
share of hard luck Its running time
to the Junction was three minutes
faster than that of the Pope Hart
ford but above that point it threw |
a tire. Another one was substituted |
but rounding a sharp curve at the
top on the hill. the same mishap oc-
CURED. Mr.. Dolly states that the |
tire trouble was due to the fact that

,aps the race was thoroughly en-

visitors from the capital city during
| the Frontier Day doings and was
given a cordial welcome from many
| friends. He had been looking after
his mining interests in the Placerita
section, and combined business with
pleasure on his brief vacation from
official duties.
Suddenly Stricken.
After being confined to his home
for the past four days, from a sud
den attack of illness, Ed. Shumate
has resumed his business at the Owl
Drug and Candy Co. His affliction
was due to nervous shock, incident
al to visiting the refrigerator room
in the basement, and the change in
temperature from the upper floor Of
many degrees.
Verde Visitors.
Mr.. and Mrs Granville Fain and
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Heath, of
Camp Verde, are in the city on a
business and pleasure trip. Messrs.
Fain and Heath are closing up the
deal for the sale of their large cattle
holdings at the LaTourrette ranches
on the East Verde river, which were
acquired by Geo. A. Carter and
others recently.
Resumes Development.
DR.. H. A. Hughes of Phoenix left
yesterday for his mining camp near
Poland, and was accompanied by
J. E. Pawley and R. H. Coates,
miners. who will establish a camp
and resume development Mr.. Paw
ley performed considerable work
this Spring and from the good show
ing made DR.. Hughes has concluded
to operate permanently and to
greater depth.
Cattle Transaction.
J. P. w. Stewart has sold to o. A.
LANCE all his cattle ranging in the
Prescott National Forest reserve.
certain enclosed lands on Slate creek,
and a mining location in the Has
sayampa district. for a nominal con-
sideration, according to a deed filed
for record yesterday The buyer is
a practical rangeman and in recent
years has been a frequent buyer and
seller OF livestock.
Adds Two More Wheels.
Another disciple of the speed wave
developed on Saturday when J. A.
Gales got aboard OF a new Over
land flyer, and stated that the bug
wheel was to go into the "has-been"
column. This purchase is inferred
by the many friends of the local
banker as very significant of his flu
ture intentions to have a seat that
will accommodate more than himself
