c. J. Rabbit was business visito, in Winslow Tuesday.
 T. E. Pollock left yesterday for a business visit in San Francisco. Deputy Sheriff Frank Fairchild and Louie Charlebois, candidate for coun- ty supervisor, left Monday in the lat ter's auto for a visit to Fredonia in the extreme northern part of the county. Mir. Fairchild made the trip in quest of some reported breakers of the law and Louie will interview the voters of that section while there. w. A. Wells, in charge of the local U. s. employment office, returned Sunday night from Williams, where he went to enlist the services of twenty-five laborers to work on the government hospital buildings at Fort Whipple. Owing to the influenza epidemic he could not get his men at the present time.
 John Sheehan returned Sunday from Snowflake, where he had been for few days to visit his youngest son, who is being cared for by lady of that town. John made the trip to Snowflake from Holbrook over the new Apache White mountain railroad which is being built to the pine for ests in the White mountains. He says the influenza epidemic has reached Snowflake, and at the time he left there thirty cases were reported in the town.
 Armando Ramos, who was a resi- dent of Flagstaff some six or eight years ago, now in the employ of the Santa Fe at San Bernardino, passed through here Monday on his return home from Winslow and Gallup, going to the latter place to visit his mother and brothers, Jesus, Fred and Tom, all of whom formerly made their home in our city. Tom reported Spanish influenza causing many deaths in Gallup, the funerals of twenty-seven people being held there Sunday, who died from the epi- demic.
 Henry Badtke, aged about thirty five years, died Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock at the home of James Robin son on west Birch avenue. Badtke was a resident of Pueblo, Col, and came here a few weeks ago for the benefit of his health, being a sufferer from asthma, and few days ago con- tracted influenza, which, together with his affliction, made the disease harder to control. His wife was tel egraphed to at Pueblo and requested the body shipped there for interment. One of the best signs of hearty and sincere cooperation to the regulations of the Health Board by the general public, is the fact that there is abso- lutely nothing to report, either in social circles or Red Cross work. We could have had some recent items on the matter of prevailing styles of dress, but even such trivialities seem out of place at time when many are sorrowing and in deep distress. Rather let the sympathetic bond between such and the community at large prevail. When the time comes to cast dull care aside, we'll be right in our proper place again.
 Surveyor W. H. Power has been doing survey work at Meteor Moun= tain this week for E. M. Barringer, the owner of the meteor mines in that country.
 City Marshal Bobby Burns was in Flagstaff from Williams Friday with a Mexican who found time hanging heavy on his hands. It was a watch belonging to another party and he was given thirty days in the county jail to oil up his balance wheel.
 George Mason, the baker, who left here with his family some time ago for California with the intention of making that state their future home, returned Sunday. George got light touch of the malaria, causing his hur- ry up return to the signing breezes of the pines. Mrs. Mason and chiid7 ren will arrive within week or so.
