One of our builders and con-

recommended to honestly and
faithfully to produce the very best
results is Mr.. J. E. Hanna, con-
tractor and builder and also extern
sively engaged in ranching. Mr..
Hanna has been in Flagstaff for
the past ten years and in addition
to other public buildings and bust
ness houses which he has con-
tracted, may be mentioned the
Episcopal church and the North
ern Arizona Garage as we'll as a
number of the finest homes in the
city. Mr.. Hanna comes originally
from Fayetteville, Arkansas, in
Washington county, the famous
apple county. He stands high as
a business man of the city.

Henry Heller

1t is often a great convenience
to the overland tourists to be able
to take his car to some first class
shop where mechanics and tools
of the very best are ready to make
much needed repairs.
Flagstaff offers this convenience
to visitors who will call at the
shop Of Henry Heller, where they
will find an est Adjustment,
equipped with all the modern
tools necessary to do the work and
expert mechanics to handle them.
Mr.. Heller came to Flagstaff in
1887 and opened his blacksmith
shop in 1890. He has made it a
rule never to allow a job to leave
his shop unless it was finished in
a frst-class and workman-like
manner and his establishment has
therefore become well known
throughout this entire part OF the
country as a reliable and most
satisfactory place to have any
kind of work done in the way OF
blacksmithing or carriage work,
horseshoeing and repairs on ma
chinery of any kind.

J. J. SANDY Donahue

Of all the famous characters Of
the old-time Arizona, none have
had a more varied or adventurous
career than J. J. Donahue, famil-
iarly known to every man, woman
and child all over Northern Ari-
iona as Sandy"
Sandy" now conducts THE
Senate" one of the leading estab-
lishments in this line in the city,
and there is no man in the entire
southwest of whom more stories
are told of his adventures than
of this famous character.
Like celebrated Coal Oil John
n.y." Sandy" has made and
handled many thousands of dol
lars, and during his palmy days
was eXtravagant to the point of
prodigality. 1t is said of him
that no man ever appealed to him
in vain and throughout his entire
, career he has been generous to a
fault.
Sandy" is a survival of the
days Of the iron men, and in his
young manhood was a famous
professional diver on the Great
Lakes, with headquarters in Chi
cago. He came west with Ed
Ayers of that city when the first
saw mill was established here and
has been a prominent figure in
the southwest ever since. He
built and conducted the CONNER
cial Hotel and was sheriff of Coco
nino county for some years during
the time that it took a man Of
iron nerve and tireless physical
energy to hold that position.
During his term of Office he made
a reputation as one of the best
officers in the southwest.

lar with the country, the people
and conditions here, in fact he has
lived in Flagstaff practically all
his life and there are none OF our
citizens who enjoy the respect and
confidence of the public to a
greater degree.
He was formerly engaged in the
cattle business and since entering
upon the duties of his official po-
sition, has proven himself an able
and efficient officer. In carrying
out his duties, he has at all times
displayed excellent Judgment and
he has earned the reputation OF
being without fear in an emer-

Broadway Tailor Co.

Whenever you meet an excep-

staff, whose clothes show the
latest cut and fit to the last detail,
it is a pretty good guess that he
is one of the customers of the
Broadway Tailor Co. of this city,
of which Mr.. Andrew Schwabe is
the proprietor. Mr.. Schwabe is
thoroughly familiar with the tailor
ing business and is the Flagstaff
agent for such houses of national
reputation as the Royal Tailors of
Chicago, Detmer & Co., Schoen-
brun & Co. and the Mutual Tailor
ing Co. Measurements are taken
here and sent to the offices OF
these famous concerns where the
goods selected are made up into
perfect fitting garments by the
best and highest priced tailors
and cutters in this country. A
complete line of samples of all
the latest weaves in imported and
domestic cloths is constantly car
ried by Mr.. Schwabe. Suits may
be had at a price to fit any pocket
book from the very moderate
priced natty business suit to the
most expensive outfit for the
SWEETEST occasions. Mr.. Schwabe
also does cleaning and pressing
and has large trade in this line.

The Old Boys In Blue

Here's to our heroes-the old
boys i'm blue;
Their uniforms faded, but hearts
strong and true.
Their steps may be tagging, they
bear many a scar
Received while on duty in that
horrible war.
The valiant old soldiers, the
brave boys IN blue,
Their ranks are decreasing, their
numbers are few,
Yet, still when they march, to
honor their dead,
An unseen host marches with
slow, silent tread.
When the country's call came.
for men with hearts true,
They responded with ardor, our
dear boys in blue.
They left homes and kindred,
their country to serve,
And never from duty or fear did
they swerve.
Many acts of bravery, of daring
untold.
Were done by the boys who are
now growing old;
Then here's TO the comrades,
yes, every one,
You have earned your furlough,
your work was we'll done.
Oh, Godl Haste the day when
foul war shall cease,
When the snowy winged dove,
the sweet emblem of peace,
Shall spread her soft pinions
and soar and soar,
Till peace is universal, and wars
are no more.
