NEAR TRAGEDY BUT
 NO ONE |S INJURED

More than a ripple of excite ment stirred Williams Monday afternoon, when Mrs. Sam Nichols walked into Rabbits store, and, after a shore con- versation with Mrs. Corb Wolfe drew a 38 revolver and fired point blank at her. In the con- versation Mrs. Nichols accused Mrs. Wolfe of having accepted a Christmas present from Mr. Nichols. This Mrs. Wolfe de nied, and further denied that she was so much as acquainted with MT. Nichols.
 At this juncture Mrs. Nichols drew the revolver from her pocket and fired at Mrs. Wolfe Mrs. Wolfe dodged behind the piano and then ran on down the aisle in the mems furnish ing department. Mrs. Nichols followed and continued to fire until her revolver was emptied- One shot entered the floor of the store, the second broke a large plate glass door of a dis play case, another broke a small show case; and one went thrus Mrs. Wolfe's dress near the shoulder. Mrs. Nichols unsteady aim saved Mrs Wolfe's life, although she had a very narrow escape. Mrs Wolfe finally reached the vault in the office and here Earl Mel ick barred Mrs. Nichols way
 At this point, MT. Spellmire who was in his office at the time the shooting started, reached Mrs. Nichols, and, the gun away from her and seizing her by the arms, reliev- ed her of the gun and took her into custody. The revolver was a five shooter and had been emptied at Mrs. Wolfe.
 The young son of Mrs. Betty Murphy was standing by Mrs Wolfe when the shooting began and was in grave danger.
 A warrant was sworn out for Mrs. Nichols arrest, and she was taken to Flagstaff Tuesday evening by Sheriff Harrington. Her preliminary hearing will be held at Flag staff next Monday.
 III health and worry have combined to leave Mrs. Nichols in a very nervous state of health.

SOLDIERS APPRECIATE
 CANTEEN SERVICE

The appreciation of the sol diers who are served at the To- cal Red Cross canteen, is voiced by the following card which was received last week, by the captain of the canteen service "Amrrican Red Cross Canteen
 Service,
 Williams, Arizona.
 "We the members of the 1st Gas Regiment, thank the Red Cross for their treat, which is always good.
 (Signed) list Gas Regiment Other expressions of appre- citation are:
 "This is the best canteen we have seen since we left New York;
 Gee, this looks good to us. '"
 'sWe certainly appreciate this feed"
 "The Red Cross and Salva- tion Army have sure been a help to us when at the front. You don't know how good a cup of warm coffee tasted when we were in the trenches"
 HThis is real coffee, boys, and enough to go around, and just taste these sandwiches
 If those persons who doubt the wisdom, or necessity, of keepig open the canteen in Will .liams, will just visit there when the canteen is full of returned soldiers and sailors, they will be convinced at once, by the voiced appreciation of the men who gave up home and salar- ies to allow us to retain the comforts of life, and our free dom.
 As one member of the can teen service was serving the men going overseas, they said "We surely appreciate this" She answered: "We appreciate what you are saving us from" AS she left them one of the men called out, ''It is a pleasure. She turned quickly, and. faced t boy of about twenty years of age. Thank you," she auswer- ed.'
 "A pleasure" to change all ones mode of living; to give up a good position; to face prob able injury, and possible death, that others may be saved.
 Are these men not entitled to a welcome from us on their re- turn?
 Can not we offer them a lunch when they need it?
 Were they found wanting when shells were coming west ward over no-man's-land?
 Let me at 'em," was their cry.
 Those crosses, row on row, in Flanders fields, are the evi- dence of how bravely they fought and died. Is it not our duty to help them if they need it, as many of them do? If you cannot be thrilled by the sight of those overseas soldiers, you must have a heart of stone.
 Your assistance is needed at the canteen. It is the best ad- yertisement Williams could possibly have. If considered from no other standpoint, it should receive all the assist ance required from every per son who has an interest in Will Hams,
