JUDGE FOLEY DIES
 OF COMPLICATIONS
 FROM OLD INJURIES
(From Sundays Daily)

A man held in genuine esteem by all who knew him passed out of Prcscotts life last night when Judge David Foley died at the County hos pital from complications brought about by old age and by injuries he sustained 20 years ago in fall down the shaft of the McCabe mine.
 Judge Foley was taken to the hos pital. two weeks ago, when he felt his old injuries giving him severer pain than usual Last night his old friends, Bob Birch and Harry Mi nucci, were informed that death was and when the end came at 9:I5, they were at the judges side. His end was quiet; he died peace fully.
 Judge Foley had a host of friends in Yavapai, won by his genial tenn per, his courage and his just prin- ciples. He was born in Buffalo, N. Y, in 1857. Forty years later found him in Cripple Creek, Colo, from where he came in that year, 1897, to Prescott to join the search for for tune in Yavapai's mines as he had labored in those of Colorado. He never found mineral riches, but the gold of friendship was his.
 His fall in the McCabe mine where he was employed as a miner in the years of reconstruction following the fire or 1900, was one of those events which divert the course of a mans life. Plunging down the shaft of that mine for some distance he sus- tained internal injuries which bother ed him for 20 years, but which he bore with the stoicism of the pio- neers. After his injuries had been alleviated, he ran for jus tice of the peace of the McCabe pre- cinct, and served in that capacity for several terms. For the past six years he has resided in Prescott, making his home at the Palace hotel, where he enjoyed the decline of life with Harry Minucci and his other friends.
 Judge Foley leaves no relatives who are known here He was 65 years old when he died, and was a of the McCabe miners union. Announcement of funeral services will be made later.

URGED
 TO PAUSE ON THE
 COLORADO COMPACT
From Sundays Daily)

Members of the Prescott Rotary club yesterday were urged to consider carefully the Colorado river develop ment compact before coming to con clusions about it or urging the Ari- zona legislature to ratify it. Harry Heap, president urged this in a short tall, following all address on the river compact by r. \. Reid of Phoenix.
 Opinion in the Salt River valley is for going slow" in expressing anything about the compact or rati- flying it before it is thoroughly un- derstood, Mir. Reid said. "TFere can be no disadvantages in delaying, in our view It IS possible that all might not be well with the compact as 1t now stands" Closer attention to plans for development of the Colorado and distribution of its waters was urged by the speaker be- cause of the importance to unde- veloped sections of this state of the big streams latent usefulness.
 President Heap urged that mem bers refrain from passing judgment until the arrival in Prescott of Geo. H. Maxwell, executive director of the National Reclamation association, whom MT. Heap has known for 25 years and who, he declared, knows more about irrigation in this section than anybody else-governors, Her bert Hoover and all, put together" " Maxwell's efforts were chiefly re- sponsible for pushing the Roosevelt project to completion in its present form, President Heap said.
 Talks on Rotary principles were made by three of Prescott's original Rotarians, who attended the meeting to form the club. George Nilsson, one of the four Adams and chairman of yesterdays meeting, called on Frank Brown, Tom Bate, Bob Byrns and Lester Ruffner to stand up, and then requested Rotarians Bate, Ruff ner and Brown to talk on the follow ing topics:
 Service, MT. Bate said, is the key note of Rotary. It is no longer the delivery of goods at your back door, but it is a condition of mind as well as of fact. This topic, he further made clear from the Rotary code Of ethics.
 MT. Ruffner explained the pro gression from acquaintance through fellowship to friendship. Acquaint- ance in business, he said, led to fel- lowship in Rotary, and fellowship in Rotary to lasting friendships. This course MT. Ruffner illustrated by the fast friendships frequently developed in the "roughing-it" of camp life Mir Brown had membership, a subject over which he can wax eloquent. Just returned from the Masonic con vention at Kansas City, he told his fellow-members that it is the weeks a member is absent from the home town that cause the drop in attend ance percentages. Since Rotary is in as well as local, a Rotar- l ian always felt as much at home in another club as in his own, he point !. ed out adding u:at the "glad-hand" committee is a thing that aids. q
 Chairman Nilsson placed copies of the December program and of com mittees' duties at each guests place before the meeting, which was held !. in the Owl banquet hall

Summary of Budget

Summary of Budget
 The summary of the budget for 1924 as given to congress shows an estimated excess of receipts over ex- penditures next year of S1SO969,12 as compared with an estimated deficit of $273,938,712 for this fiscal year. The president said, however, that he was hopeful that the estimated de- ficit for 1923 could be reduced in the remaining seven months and that the close of the year next June 50 would show a balanced account.
 Estimated expenditures of $3,180,- S43,234 for 1924, which are exclusive of the postal service, compare with estimated appropriations of $3,078,- 940,331 for the same period. MT. Harding explained that the expendi- lures would represent actual cash withdrawals from the treasury, in cluding some on account of appro- prlauonS III previous years.
 Another deficit in postal operations was of recast for this year, but MT. Harding said 1t was estimated that through proper readjustments there would be a surplus of postal revenues over expenditures in 1924 amounting to $952,439. For this year postal costs were placed at S559,996,S41, or an estimated deficiency of $31,502,- 570, as compared with an actual de- ficiency in the last fiscal year of $64,346,234. The 1924 costs are given at $584,653,15l.
 Military Budgets
 The president told congress that an appropriation of $346,S94,3S6 rec commended for the army, would pro- vide a regular force of 12,O0O officers and 125,000 enlisted men, exclusive of the Philippine Scouts, which is the strength now authorized by congress and would enable the militia bureau to increase the strength of the na- tional guard from 100000 officers and men to 2l5,OOO officers and men. For the army air service $12,S71, 500 is proposed or $23,500 less than ap- propriated this year. MT. Harding said this sum would permit the serv- ice to operate efficiently in accord ance with existing policy.
 For the navy $2S9, 9,8SO,993 is asked. This amount, the president asserted, would provide for the present enlist ed personnel of 86,0OO men; maintain all present ships in commission, and make provision for continuing all new ship construction in privately owned yards, except for reduction in speed of construction on three light cruisers.
 Other Items
 Provision is made in the budget for $2530O0,0OO in pensions; $434,- S64,050 ill World war allowances and $20,389,289 in retirement pay. Other items include $4l,764,55O for rivers and harbors, $3l, ,4SOOOO for good roads, $5,7l8,95O for hospital con struction, and facilities for war patients; $2,2OO,OOO for railroads in Alaska, $6,SS9,1O5 for the Panama canal; $18,553,69S for general law enforcement, including administration and enforcement of the national pro hibition amendment, for narcotic acts and the prosecution of war frauds, and $750,000 for the replacement of worn-out portions of the Alaska cable.

HAD TO JOIN THE PARADE
CoIored Taxicab Driver Was There, But Couldn't Be Said to Have
 Enjoyed 1t.

There was a Ku Klux Klan parade over in Virginia recently in which some colOred men took an active and wholly unasked-fOr part. COlOred people like parades. but, judging from the story of that cOlOred taxicab driv- CT, that is still one kind of parade they will willingly miss.
 This driver was approached on the street by groap of welldressed men, who hired him to take them over into Virginia. The car went over the streets, and over the roads. and into the country.
 After awhile the cars seemed to thicken. More and more cars were encountered. At last the taxi came to a fork in the road. Ahead was a bright light. The cars contained the strangest-lO0king persons, all garbed in white robes, with long pointed hats.

 Turning around to personally pro test to his fares. his eyes were greeted by the sight of ten eyes peering at him from behind white cloth, while the white gowns seemed to fill the entire car.
 The fares had quickly slipped on robes, and were all ready to partici- pate in the parade. Much against his will, the cOIOred taxi man was pre- vailed upon to continue, and thus be- come a participant ill the parade.- Washington Star.

OWES MUCH TO JOHN MUIR
Famous Naturalist Tells of Determin- ing Influence at the Outset of
 His Career.

EnOS A. Mills, the nature guide and author, who through his books on the wild life of the Rockies has done more than any other. man in the West to bring nature and human kind together, tells what was the determining int1u- ence of his career. This was chance meeting with John Muir. Mr., Mills, then a frail nineteen-year-O boy, whose poor health had led him to live much in the open, was wandering one day over the hot sand hills of beach near San Francisco.
 'I had picked up strange sort of weed" he says, "and was puzzling about it. Always it was my desire to ask questions about the things of the outdoors which I did not understand. I saw an old man approaching. he looked kindly and intelligent, and l asked him about the weed. He told me all about it in language which fas- c1nated me. In turn, he began to ques- tiOn me.
 we walked back to San Francisco together over the sand dunes, and ne asked me more questions about my self and my work and ambitions, and advised me to study nature at every opportunity and to learn to. write and speak of what I saw. The stranger was John Muir. His advice gave me something definite to work toward.
 "I owe everything to him. If 1t hadn't been for him I would have been mere gypsy. He told me to systematize my knowledge and that then I would be able to write."-The Book Leaf.
