From Comedy to Tragedy

sFatty" Arbuckle has long distinguished himself in comedy We shall now what talent he may pos sess for tragedy There more favorable role than that which now awaits hrn-which. it Is alleged he created for himself. All the settings are there. And in the last act if that should be played. MT. ArbuckIe will bring down the house. may say. the gallows frame. Nature has created him for such a part His ponderosity is great that his neck could hardly fail of dislocation.
 MT. Arbuckle has made joke of life and espe- cially of MT. volsteads famous but frequently nouted law He would never take it seriously. It was not meant for him: to him 1t was unconstitu- tional. null and void. Not long ago MT. Arbuckle spurned 1t in New York; little later in Chicago. His path across the continent and up and down the Californian coast was marked by the debris of the constitutional amendment and Its enforcement law.
 About two years ago MT. ArbuckIe participated in an outbreak Boston at so-called Garden of Eden" party. said to have been most disgraceful affair." It involved several eminent persons. among them judge of the court who was in consequence removed from the bench. That episode seems not to have been given wide publicity. But it ported that Mr. Arbuckles part in it cost movie nagnate $1ooooo. It is not at all likely that the San francisco affair will be settled money basis.
 The vice of solitary drinking Is not so far we have learned, of MT. Arbuckle's He is or has been convivial soul. He liked company. more particularly the company Of women He liked parties not great parties in which the elite congre- gated but small select. hand picked parties in the sscI,sion of apartments hotel suites. And it was ;n the latest of these that comedy suddenly turned to tragedy with Mr. Arbucke still the star.
 A young woman dead and MT. Arbuckle is in ;au charged with crime which the law gives an ,,eIv name We may wish that MT Arbuckle will prove his innocence rather that 1t may be shown that he Is not guilty. but he has given himseh the back ground of a bad record within the last two years.
 Some one has sagey observed that life is not s,I beer and skitt1es" Seriousness now and then fntrudes and Mir. Arbuckle has come upon most serious episode. His weakness. and very manifest arror as we learned from his recent New York and r~htcago escapades regardless of his guilt as ohareed Is in his failure to recognize life on the staea or on the silver shee as one thing and life itself is another

Cave Creek Control

We are glad to learn that all the parties to the movement for the control of Cave Creek have come together on the to adopt definite plan that the work may be begun shortly and that it may be prosecuted to a stage at which danger from floods next spring will be greatly reduced. and that danger from more likely floods next summer may be wholly eliminated.
 The plan toward which the agreement points is that prepared by the Water Users association last winter and which was laid before the legislature previous to the passing of the flood control act. Without understanding of the engineering features involved. The Republican then and since endorsed that plan partly because other was definitely presented and because 1t faith engineer ing ability of the gentlemen who formulated it.
 Then and since then public opinion generally favored another but very indefinite plan for the disposition of the flood waters of Cave Creek-ther diversion by means of canal eight miles in length to Skunk Creek and thence into New River. Without understanding of present conditions that seemed a good method of control and much less expensive than that proposed by the Water Users.
 Thirty years ago that might have been the best but since then there have been settlements along Skunk Creek and New River. Lands have under cultivation. the condemnation of which would cost larger sum than the Water Users plan.
 Surveys have also shown that New River lacks capacity to carry large Cave Crek flood in addition to one which would probably occur in New River at the airne. An alternative plan the diver- sion from River to the Agua Fria, but the cost If 1t found to be prohibitive. Thus by elmina- ton there stands out only the plan of the Water Users with such modifications. if any, the com mite engineers representing all the parties to the control project may suggest
 We hope that little time may elapse before the beginning of actual work There two periods of the year when Cave Creek floods likely to occur. One is from about the middle of July to the middle Of September. and the other, during the months of January. February and March.
 The control project cannot be completed before the latter named period but 1t be carried so far along that the greater part of the flood may be intercepted that the country along it's path be left in safety. But with prompt action the country could be made absolutely against flood duced by the torrential rains which fall every the 2oo-mile watershed of Cave Creek

LOUIS w. HOUCH DROWNED
Yesterday Afternoon in the Lake at
Mountain Lake Park.

Louis W. Houck, aged twenty-eight
years, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel
Houck, of Oakland, was drowned in
the lake at Mountain Lake Park yes
terday afternoon about four o'clock
in the presence of a large number of
other bathers who were disporting
themselves in the waters of the lake
at the time.
Mr.. Houck, in company with Carle-
ton Helbig and Stewart Linville, both
of Oakland, had gone into the lake to-
gether and had swan about two hun
dred yards from the breast of the dam
when Mr.. Houck made an outcry
which was needed by his companions,
both of whom went to his rescue. In
their efforts to succor the drowning
man both became very much weak
ened. They called to a number of per-
sons to fetch boat from the landing
stage but in the excitement their cries
were either misunderstood or not
heard and to save themselves from be-
ing drowned along with Mr.. Houck
they were forced to relax their efforts,
but not however until both had gone
down with him a second time. The
body was recovered about an hour af-
terward by young man from Pitts
burgh, Pa, who is now confined to his
bed in one of the hotels at the Park as
a result of exhaustion.
The body of Mr.. Houck was brought
to Oakland and after being prepared
at the undertaking establishment of
D. E. Bolden was taken to the home of
the deceased's parents on Alder street
where the father has been confined to
his bed for several days past.
Mr.. Houck is survived by his par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs Daniel Houck, the
former being an eX-Sheriff of Ale
gany county, but now the right of way
superintendent for the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad; three brothers, Messrs.
George Houck, of Keyser, West Va;
W. Osborne and Raymond Houck, of
