Ave trailed him to near Stod- dard. where we learned he had head ed for Jerome via the Cherry Creek country. We then headed for the main highway, Al Weber driving the car, with myself, Deputies Roy Young, Frank Wilson and Tommy Thompson along. Near the Cherry Creek crossing we blew a tire, and, about 7 o'clock that morning, stop ped to fix the tire.

He leaned over on the opposite side of the horse from me and continued on.
 "At that time, of course, I did not know that murder had been com- mitted, and was not even certain that this man was the highwayman. 1 was merely curious to know why he was in such a hurry. When he did not stop. fired several shots at him but he kept on at fast speed and disap- peared down the Cherry Creew wash. I then trailed him down the wash un- til his tracks disappeared in the rocky country.
 "We then went on to Verde and 1t was not until We reached there that we learn. .d he had killed Mullican. In the meantime Sheriff Young had ar rived on the scene and took charge of the posse. There are several posses out after the bandit and mur- derer, and I believe Sheriff Young and his posses will capture the man."

A number of Hernandez countrvmen surrounded him, and, by using rifles and rocks, managed to stand off the posse until the murder CT had had an opportunity to escape into the hills. The fugitive was shot and killed several days later, how ever. by a Coconino county officer who happened to meet him near Kat tlesnake Tanks.

GOING AND COMING

The machinery for dealing with
/ those guilty of reasonable and semi
reasonable utterances is now working
smoothly all over the country. It is
getting offenders going and coming.
If one method isn't suited to the par
ticular case, another is. The extent
and variety of the means for reach
ing disloyalty and intrigue are strik-
ingly illustrated in the news of a sin
gle day.
On March 5, a pro-German ser
geant in an engineer company in Mas
sachusetts was given thirty years in
the penitcntiary at hard labor by a
court-martial for his reasonable
statements. On the same day at
Fargo, M. D., the president of school
district in Cass county was convicted
in tho Federal Court for violation of
the espionage act. On the same day,
also, a woman teacher near South
Omaha, Neb., was dismissed by the
school board because she refused to
salute the flag.
At about the time all these things
were happening, the voters of Seattle,

ton activities last year. And stimuli

WHERE PRICES ARE HIGHER

Sweden before the war used to- i'm
port about 100000 tons Of coal and
coke per year. This supply, of course,
has stopped. One result is that coal
in Sweden now sells at $500 ton, and
is difficult to obtain. In Denmark,
also, the coal shortage is acute. In
Copenhagcn's finest department store
clerks wear big straw slippers aid
wooden blankets because there is not
coal enough to keep the place properly
heated.
Automobile tires are scarce in Den
mark and consequently have skyrock-
eted the price. A single tire sold for
$540 there last October
Tea in Sweden is So pound. Cof-
fee is practically unobtainable. Wool
en- clothing has increased more than
200 per cent in price since the begin
ming of the war. Chocolate sells for
So pound; ham for 81 pound.
Gasoline, likewise, is difficult to OBJ
tain, and the price of it is prohibitive
last October it was So a gallon.
! The length of the midwinter day in
Sweden is approximately four hours.
Lighting, therefore, is an essential.
Kerosene is practically, unobtainable,
SO the people have had to depend
largely upon candles. In August,
1914, candles were Is cents a pound;
in January, 1917, 81 cents a pound, and
last October, 80 cents pound.
The scarcity and consequent abnor-
NAL prices of motoring necessities
tires and gasoline, for example-have
necessarily affected the use of pleas
ure cars. Recently there were only
seventeen taxicabs in Stockholm.
In the spring of 1916 ordinary low
grade walking shoes in Sweden had
increased in price to 81 pair. They
are now $25 a pair.--World's Work.

CONFERENCE FOR
SOCIAL WELFARE

On the evening of Friday, April %,
a large and representative audience
assembled in the High School at Flat
River to organize a Conference for
Social Welfare for St. Francois Coun-
ty. The State Conference at it's last
meeting decided that County Confer
ences were great need throughout
the State, as each community has
problems of its own that only the peo-
Pile familiar with them can solve.
The Chairman, Mr.. J. Clyde Akers,
called the meeting to order, and Rev.
M. H. Markley delivered tine invoca-
ton. Judge R. C. Tucker was then
introduced and spoke in, an earnest
manner on the work of the Juvenile
Court, of which, he is the efficient of
| ficer in St. Francois county. The
Chairman then introduced Mr.. C. L..
Wayne, Secretary of the State Board
of Charities and Corrections, who
spoke on the work of the State and
National Conferences, and of the most
effective means of carrying on the
work in the county.
The audience was so delighted with
the vocal number rendered by the
Flat River quartette, that they insist
ed on a second.
The District Chairman then made a
short talk on the aim of the County
Conference and what it was hoped to
accomplish and the large audience
were unanimous in their vote in favor
of organizing for this work.
With the District Chairman presid-
ing, officers were elected as follows:
Pres, Mr.. J. Clyde Akers, Farming
ton; Vive-Pres., Mrs. F. L. Keith,
Rivermines; Sec., Mrs. o. W. Bleeck,
Pennington.
At the session Saturday morning
Rev. S. W. Stophlet delivered the in
vocation. Mr.. J. U. White spoke on
the Need of Vocational Training in
St. Francois County Public Schools.
The Boys Quintette from Pennington
delighted the audience with two beau
tiful numbers. This band, under the
leadership of Mrs. Fannie L. Shaw,
consists of Masters Ted Graves, Ilar-
ry Williams, Mayford Spence, William
Shaw and Leslie Evans.
The proposed work of the Children's
SOut was tiitll uloIbSoCl
by Mrs. o. w. Bleeck of Pennington
in a most thorough and interesting
manner. She has the subject well in
hand and no doubt her address will be
instrumental in making enthusiastic
converts of a great number Of st.
Francois county people 10 the poll
cies Of the Commission.
Mr.. j. H. Tetley Of FarmipgtGn
spoke on Food Conservation, Mrs. NJ.
p. Cayce on the Red Cross, and MI.
Malugen of Bonno Terra on the Bird
Liberty Loan.
Citizens from every part of the
county were present at both meetings,
and from the interest manifested,
there can be no doubt that st. Fan
co.'s county is fully alive to the great
need there is for organized social
work in our community.
Elsewhere in this paper will be
found the resolutions adopted by the
Conference.
