expression of several business men who were yesterday asked if they were in favor of the flights. We need little excitement in this neck of the woods, and that is the best way I've seen in long time to se- cure it." one of them added.
 Harry Welch, secretary of the board of trade, when he was asked how much in favor of the appearance of Beachey. stated that he would take up the matter at once with the board of directors and would secure an an swer from them concerning the mat ter at the next meeting. T am in favor of bringing Beachey to Phoenix in the event the arrangements can be made at as small a cost as possible to all concerned. I am not in favor of any large guarantee. but there Is no doubt that the flying name of Beachev alone will guarantee the crowd and the gate receipts. As to the other arrangements, I think it is up to Beachey and his manager to make them. I believe the board will attend to the moral support of the flights and will do all in it's power to advertise them if he arranges to appear here. Further we cannot go.

MILITIA OFFICER SAYS
 STRIKERS CHARGES FALSE
Investigation In Michigan Copper
 District Reaches Climax.
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPATcHl

TRINIDAD, Feb. 20.-The series of charges by United Mine Workers of America against the national guard made from time to time since
 the beginning of the strike investi-
 gation before the house sub-com-
 mittee reached a climax today. The
 report of the officers who investi-
 gated the alleged attack and theft at Yockitski Ranch, described yes terday by an eleven year old Slavish boy Gustav Yoskinski, was submit ted to the sub- committee today by the militia.
 The investigating officer denied every charge made by the boy, ex- cept that two officers of the na- tional guard searched the Yoskinski home. The testimony from the militia's officer was a signal for an attack on the national guard by the
 counsel for the strikers, and scathing cross examination by James Brewster who gave the intimation that more testimony on the subject
 of alleged outrages would be forth coming.

PHOENIX CHUGB|KERS
 oFF FOR OLD PUEBLO
Ten At Least Will Leave for Tucson
 There to Be Guests of Motorcycle Club.

Ten riders at the least and per haps more will attempt to make the 137 miles from Phoenix to TIcson by motorbike today between the hours of l p. m. and ) D. m. main- taining for the run an average rate of a little better than thirty-four miles per hour That the feat can be accomplished is not the state ment of any one of the enthusiasts but they will attempt to make it at any event.
 Pueblo is not such a bad one that the machines cannot be ridden all the way, and it is barely possible that thev may make the scheduled time. but there are doubters. Herb Worcester made the run from Tue son to Phoenix last week in just five hours and he said at the time that he was going some. If they make it tomorrow in fClr hours,' said Herb last evening. they are all some riders. It is a hard and grinding run. But here's luck. Go to it."
 The run is wholly a sociability affair, all riders keeping close
 ally on each other and remaining near enough so that they may help one another whenever such aid is needed. They will take the Tempe Mesa. Chandler Florence route. Special entertainment will be ar ranged by the Tucson club for the
 members of the Phoenix aggregation sort'o as return for the good things the locals did for the south
 erners when they came to Phoeni, sowe week past. Advices from the Tucson club are to the effect that they are expecting a large number of Phoenix enthusiasts and that. they are well primed to show them the
 hest of times while they are in tn, city. The riders will return tC Phoenix Sunday and Monday. som, | remaining over till the latter day
 since it is legal holiday.
