OLAY OUT NEW GOLF COURSE
 FOR COUNTRY CLUB

That the proposed plans for the new Phoenix Country club are in reality to be carried out is indicated by the fact that the greens committee of the Country club has just entered into two very important contracts which will start the ball rolling for the con- struction of the new golf course and laying out of the grounds on the new tract which lies at the northeast cor ner of Seventh street and Thomas road which was just recently purchased bv the Country club at a cost of $56,00O
 Arrangements were made yesterday with Harry Collis of the F1ossmoor Country club of Chicago, and in charge of the golf course at the San Marcos hotel at Chandler, whereby Mr. Collis is to immediately lay out the golf course. MT. Collis is man who has had a great many years experience in this class of work and is particu- larly fitted to make the new course one that will become famous through out the southwest as a test of real golf
 In speaking of the work, MT. ColIis said. There is no reason why the new course should not be one that the Salt River valley may be proud of. The board of directors and the greens committee have given me in strucuons to map out a course of ap- proximately 6500 yards. well bunkered and trapped, and to be as nearly perfect golf course as I can design These instructions are broad, and I in tend to put my best efforts on the job. will have the plans ready to turn over to Lloyd Wright of Los Angeles, who will carry out the landscape gar dening plans by the end of this week. so that there may be no delay in the greens committee going ahead with the work. The tract of land is certainly ideally situated for golf course and country club, it being close enough to town to allow a great many people to take advantage of the later afternoon

The elderly doctor declared that he shot O'Brien in elf-defense. At the hos pltal OBrien made a statement In which he said that he was fired upon by the doctor without warning.
 According to information in the pos session of MT. Laney, Miss Mort ar rived in Wickenburg about 10 days ago accompanied by O'Brien. She told the county attorney that she met Dr. Campbell while dining with O'Brien in a restaurant there. Since the doc tor was a Canadian by birth, youthful in appearance, and a brilliant conver- sationalist, she said. she felt no mis- apprehension when he engaged O'Brien and herself in conversation at the table Later, however, she told the county attorney, the doctors attentions became annoying. She said she learned that the doctor asked officers where he might procure a marriage license.
 The upshot of this was jealousy be- tween O'Brien and the doctor, accord ing to the county attorney. Sensing impending trouble, Miss Mort reported the matter to Judge Riggs, Wickenburg

 'Dr. Campbell was given a hearing here before Drs. Carson and Mills and myself.

justice of the peace, who, in turn, notified MT. Laney in Phoenix. MT. Laney advised Miss Mort to come to Phoenix, which she did, bringing with her a letter the doctor had written to O'Brien, in which he had warned the latter ''to keep away from the girl.
 Mir. Laney said that Miss Mort told him that she knew she had been fool ish to travel with O'Brien, but as their relations had always been strictly proper. and their families such close friends, she had permitted their friend ship to continue, although she had not returned the love she said he bore for her. It was at this time, she added, according to Mir. Laney that Dr. Campbell had made himself offensive to her by his alleged insulting treat ment of O'Brien. During the war the latter had been a soldier, and she a motorcycle rdier and member of the w. A. A. C., she said.
 Examined as to Sanity
 On advice of MT. Laney, Miss Mort returned to Wickenburg and placed herself under the protection of the of ficers there while living with the family of Henry Cowel, an old settler. Dr. Campbell, who came to Phoenix on November 25 to face an examination as to his sanity, conducted by Judge Stamford of the superior court, Dr. Harry Carson, county physician, and Dr. Il. F. Mills, said yesterday after noon, in scouting the idea that his proposals of marriage to Miss Mort were made with serious intent, that both he and the girl were related to Matthew Arnold, noted English writer
 How could I marry my cousin ?" he IS alleged to have asked the county at torney, who questioned him on this point yesterday afternoon.
 MORE
 OBrIen, in statement made at the hospital, said that yesterday morning he started to the doctors office to re- turn manicure set, silk handker- chief and other presents he said the doctor had given Miss Mort. He fol- lowed the doctor to the door of his office. The doctor entered it, came out with one hand behind his back, and then opened fire, O'Brien said. Dr. Campbell, on the other hand declares that he saw O'Brien fumbling in his coat, and, thinking O'Brien meant to him, hurried into his office for his gun.
 J. R. Barnette, an eye witness, says that Dr. Campbell said nothing as he came out of his office, and that O'Brien dropped in the gutter at the shot. He then rose, Barnette says, walked a few steps, muttering: You coward. You cowardi"

Ancient Rome Had Strike.

On the word of q decipherer of an
cient records there was, in the year
800 b. c.. a strike of the musicians
union in Rome. The officials of Rome
it appears, thought that the musicians
should play without pay at forthcom-
ing festival in honor Of Jupiter. The
musicians thought otherwise, and al
though Rome, then engaged in one of
the Samnite wars. had little money to
spend for music, declined not to "do
their bit" by performing without pay.
Apparently the argument that they
were really playing for Jupiter himself
was tried without effect. So the city
officials decided on an appeal to public
opinion; they evolved stratagem by
which they decoyeds the striking mu-
sicians to the scene of the festival. and.
with all Rome looking expectantly at
them, the musicians changed their
minds and there was music as usual"

upon pieces of timber perfectly pre-
served, which have every appearance
of having been sawed and shaped by
the hand of man.
This timber lies in the bed of an
ancient river now being worked for
gold. and the timber is oak. Now,
oak has the peculiar property of last
ing for centuries when buried in water
or wet sand. Oak piles have been
taken out from under old wooden
bridges constructed by the Romans,
and found as sound as when they were
put there, nearly 1000 years ago.
Oak, known as bog oak, is found
buried in Irish peat boys, and is per

valuable Just before the worlds war
1t was discovered that the bed of the
river Moksha, in Russia, for length
of over 400 miles, is simply full Of
magnificent old oak trees bedded in

and the oak can easily be raised.
Smaller deposits are found In Eng

are masses Of fine old oak The
strange thing is that there are no oak
trees near the spot at present.

expenses up to December first, 1919,
his first entry of expense is miscel-
laneous account of $2,587.74 for
which we ask space in your paper to
ask some questions and explanations,
for we as tax payers do not under
stand in making up expense accounts
what miscellaneous means in dollars
and cents. We would ask the engineer
to .itemize this miscellaneous account
of 81 ,587.74 as we can understand his
other itemized accounts of the materi-

know what it means, if they received
