GOVERNOR G0ES
 TO LYMAN DAM

Governor Hunt, in company with State Treasurer David F. Johnson and Secretary of State Sidney P. Osborne, left Phoenix last night for Holbrook and St. Johns to inspect the Lyman dam project and to arrange further de- tails in connection with the loaning of state funds to complete the project, ap- plication for which has been made by the farmers who will benefit by the waters to be stored by this dam.
 After many tribulations and deep money losses, occasioned to the farm CTS of that country when the former dam was washed out several years ago. with true American spirit they have rallied, and the nearly completed Lyman dam is the result of their ear nest efforts.
 The owners of the 15,00O acres ot land under the project have offered to pledge their land to the state for a loan of about s10 an acre, this money in turn to be loaned to the Lyman Dam company for the completion of the dam. The state also will take a mortgage on the dam if the deal is consummated. The Lyman dam is on the Little Colorado river. Governor Hunt expects to return to his offices in the state house on Monday morning. -O-

Julian Eltinge-Last Time


 So well was he disguised that his own sweetheart failed to recognize him. The above is just one of the many amusing situations in The Countess Charming" starring Julian Eltinge, the famous feminine inn personator. at the Lamara for the last time today. The plot deals with the method taker. by an out side" society lion to regain his po- sition and wreak his revenge on those responsible for his humiliation. The lion is a handsome young man whose ability as an impersonator of the fair sex forms the basis for his de- cision to cash in" on his talent, ard posing as a Russian countess, he proceeds to put into execution his carefully built plot To say that he succeeds in his undertaking is not only putting it mildly. but it is eliminating the action leading up to this condition of affairs, action which places The Countess Charming" in the class of the "out of the ordinary motion pictures.
 This is Eltinges premier Para mount picture, but it speaks strongly for his ability as an exponent of the cinema, and will add materially to his already bountiful stock of popu- larity.

WATER DAMAGE PUT
 AT SUM IF sB.000

Claiming that his land and improve ments had been damaged to the extent of $6,000, Thomas H. Bell yesterday brought suit for that amount against the Arlington Canal company, alleging that not sufficient provision had been made in the construction of the dam for taking care of the overflow in the Gila.
 Bell is the owner of 160 acres of land on the river. His property is so situated he claims that the breaking banks of the river above the dam is liable to cause the water to overflow his place. This he alleges is what hap pened in the autumn of 1916 when he was damaged in the sum of S6,O00.

A PATRIOTIC PLAY

If you enjoy a good clean comedy
don't miss seeing "a Daughter of I'm
Gle Sam" at the Opera House Decem-
ber 90.
The play was written for that win
some little artistic Miss Hazel Shan
non, who has established herself ?
prime favorite with the theatergoers
of our city.
The play while not a war drama, ii
full of patriotic lines and speeches ant
after seeing it will make you thinl
the good old U. S. A. is pretty good
old place to live in after all.
Manager Shannon has assembled
the strongest acting company he has
ever had, and the play fits Miss Haze
to perfection.
The company carry their own ter
piece orchestra and several high class
vaudeville acts are introduced between
acts. One lady admitted free with eacl
paid 55 cent ticket Monday night

LONDON AWAITS
OPPORTUNITY To
HONOR PRESIDENT
Plans Being Made In London to
Eclipse Paris Welcome to Ameri-
can Chief Executive.

London, December 19-London in
tends to eclipse the welcome Paris
gave to President Wilson in the same
degree that its population exceeds
that of the French capital
While great numbers of organiza-
tions, political and nonpolitical, al
ready have considered separate dem
onstration in Wilson's honor, it is be-
lieved they ultimately will follow the
example provided by Paris and com
bine in one big celebration.
The government, of course, Will
provide the president with every Of
fetal attention, but it is the mil
lions who will furnish the real well
come.
Wilson's visit here, probably De-
cember 26, however, will be much
more than a holiday, since he will ar
| rive in the midst of an increasingly
warm discussion regarding the allies
Russian policy.
1t is practically certain his coun-
sci will be sought in this regard. 1t
is almost equally certain he will be
urged to define in more detail his at
titude concerning freedom of the seas
and enlarge on his plan for the League
of Nations.
Beneath the surface of social at
tentions which will be showered upon
the president and Mrs. Wilson in the
form of parades, banquets, speeches
memorials and general Fluctuations, it
is evident, therefore, much of the pre-
liminary work of the peace confer
ence will be transacted here.
Renewed interest in the Russian
problem is the outgrowth of persist
ent rumors that a great allied expedi-
tion is planned for occupying Petro-
grad and Russia, suppressing the Boil
shevik government and establishing
order during the present winter.
The newspapers publish complaints
from soldiers, who allege they have
been ordered to Russia.
The press of all shades of politica
opinion hints great opposition will de
velop in the event an attempt is made
to carry out such plan.

SYSTEMATIC ROBBERIES
UNCOVERED BY DETECTIVES
Employees Of Adams Express Com.
pany at This Place Said to Have
Been Stealing Merchandise
For More Than Year.

For more than a year the local Of
flee of the Adams Express Company
has been victimized by shrewd en-
ployees, an investigation which has
been in progress for several days has
disclosed.
A great many shipments coming in
to and going out of the local office
have been marked up short" that is,
parts of the shiSment have been miss
ing. This situation became so notice
able in Maysville that the Express
Company sent their detectives here to
look into the matter.
The result of an investigation by the
detectives which is said to have in
cluded searches of employees homes
resulted in the discharge of Marshall
Cooper and Charles Workman from
the company's employ. Warrants for
the arrest of these two men were is
sued in Squire Bauer's court and at
the request of the Express Company
officials the charges were made for
petit larceny and both men paid small
fines.
1t is said that many articles stolen
from express shipments were found in
the homes of the employees among
which was a very valuable talking ma
chine found in the home of Marshall
Cooper.
There are other men implicated in
the series of systematic thefts but as
the progress of the officials became
prematurely known it is likely the IN
vestigation has been brought to an
end

FLU" SERUM NO GOOD,
SAYS OHIO NEWSPAPER
Experiment With Influenza Serum In
Ohio City Disclose That Vaccine
Is No Good Says Paper.

The following is from the Warren
(O) Daily Tribune:
Announcement is made this morn
ing of a ruling issued by the local
board of health, backed by the health
department of the United States Gov
ernment that the serum, which has
been so widely advertised as a preyen-
tive for Spanish Influenza and admin
istered by many physicians through
out the country, is utterly devoid of
any virtue in producing the results
claimed for it. 1t is looked upon as a
most deplorable condition, that thou
sands of people have been induced to
take the serum and have paid a high
price for it and have later been re-
ported as victims of the disease and
in many cases have been taken into
the emergency hospitals.
Warren physicians have been warn
ed of the inadequacy of the compound
and are refusing to administer it tc
the patients. Members of the Warren
Fire Department, who were inoculated
with the serum were later victims OF
the influenza and are testifying to its
utter failure as preventive.
