Metropolitan Airs.

With the issuing of the new
telephone directory pass the good
old days of taking down the re-
ceiver and asking central" to
give you Bill Jones or Sally
Smith. If you want a phone
connection hereafter you will
save time and a ruff1ed temper
by calling the number, as cen
tral has other duties than look
ing for the number of the party
you want. 1t may be the cause
of a little profanity for awhile,
but we will soon get used to the
changed conditions, and we may
in time get to know our own
number at least.

Shadow of the Tombs.

1t must be an awful experience
to a brace of staid elders like c..
}. Spellmire and Jack Lyons to
mediate real hard on the possi-
bility of spending time in some
federal prison, and what relief
to discover a few hours later it
was all a mistake. Last Tues
day Babbitt Bros. of Flagstaff
received a telegram from the
United States district attorney
at Omaha, Neb.. asking for the
full names of the two above in
dividuals and their present ad-
dress, and directing that the in
formation be wired at once. The
firm complied with the request,
and also telephoned to Spellmire
and Lyons, probably to give them
time to get into Mexico before
the strong arm of Uncle Sam
could get them. For the balance
of the day Jack and Clarence had
their heads together going over
their respective lives from the
time they were out of kits try
ing to figure out wherein they
had offended the majesty and
dignity of the U. S. A. The next
morning their minds were re-
lieved to get a telegram from
the district attorney making in
quiries as to their knowledge of
one Thompson, who was supposed
to be connected with an alleged
corporation known as the United
States Live Stock Go. that was
operating in this section of Ari-
zona several years ago, and had
buncoed innocent Nebraska
famers out of thousands of
dollars.

Injuries Prove Fatal.

The injuries received by Con-
ductor George King at Williams
last week, an account of which
appeared in our last issue, termi-
mated fatally at the hospital at
Los Angeles last Saturday, where
he had been removed in the hope
that an operation would save his
life. In addition to having ore
OF his limbs so badly crushed
that it was necessary to amputate
it. the surgeons found that Mr..
King also had his back broken.
The news of the death of Mr..
King was received with sincere
evidence of distress and grief
by the many friends of the
family here, where they have
resided SO long and have won
for themselves a warm spot in
the hearts of our citizens. De-
ceased leaves behind to mourn
their loss a wife and two small
children, and in their sad aff1ic-
ton thew have the comforting
knowledge that their Silent
burden grief is shared by all our
people. Funeral services and
interment was held at Los An
geles, representatives from the
local 0. R. G. being in atten-
dance.

1t A'int So.

The usually reliable Coconino
Sun, with big scare heads an
nounced last week that our local
agent, H. j. Fouts, was to be
the successor of O. H. Johns as
Santa Fe agent at Flagstaff.
We don't blame the Sun for wish
ing this announcement was true,
as that gentleman and his esti-
mable family would be a valua-
BILE addition to the city, but Mr..
Fouts is perfectly contented to
be registered as a citizen of
Winslow, and he likes his job of
bossing the Santa Fe railroad
from this point.
We are sorry Flagstaff is
losing Mr.. Johns, but they can
not try to make good their loss
by stealing our fellow. Winslow
likes Fouts, and Fouts likes
Winslow, so there you are. We
have some citizens here that we
would be glad to wish on Flag
staff.

SAMUEL CALDWELL DEAD.

His many friends in this county,
and particularly was he loved in the
West End, where he. attended school
some 25 years ago, were saddened
Thursday by wire announcing the
death at Paducah of Samuel Cald-
we'll. He was a prominent lawyer
of his home town, was successful
man in his business affairs and a
gentleman in all the word means. 1t
had been his custom to visit Hus-
tonville friends and relatives every
year or so and his coming was look
ed forward to by all classes, all of
which are grieved by the thought
that he will be no more. Mr.. Cald-
we'll had been in declining health for
several years and itswas feared that
the end would not be- long in coming.

That was an old-fashioned SER
vice at the Christian church Sunday
morning, but it was a very delight
full and impressive one. The occasion
was the 49th anniversary of Elder
Joseph Ballou's ministry. The grand
old man was at his best and his
friends having gathered to hear a
good sermon, and at the same time
pay their respects to the beloved SER
want of God, went away feeling
that like wine, "Bro." Ballou grows
better with years. The subject of the
sermon was Preparedness" but his
text was from the 18th verse of the
fourth chapter of Amos-"Prepare
to Meet Thy God, Oh Israel" The
speaker told of the necessity of be-
ing prepared for the hereafter. Said
he: young men prepare to call on
their sweethearts and some women
make preparations to meet their
beaux, but it is a sad commentary on
mankind that there are those among
US who make no preparations to
meet their God" He admonished his
hearers to so live that when this life
is over and the real life is begun
there would be neither regrets nor
fears, neither sorrow nor pain. Rev.
Ballou told of his joining the church
soon after his marriage under the
ministry of Preacher Dunagan, and
how his good wife had grieved that
he had not given his heart to God
sooner. Said he: "Going home from
church one day my wife seemed blue
and worried. l asked her what was
the matter. She answered by saying
between sobs that she was sorely dis
appointed; that she had set her heart
on my joining the church at that SER
vice and l had failed to do so. COM
forted her the best / could, but when
we went to meeting the following
day | took the step | have never re-
GREETED. AS Brother Dunagan sang
my favorite hymn went toward and
made a confession, thank God" Lack
of space forbids a full report of the
good sermon, but suffice it to say
it was one of Brother" Ballou's
very best, which means a great deal
to those who know what a good
preacher Rev. Ballou is.
