A very beautiful wedding took

If It Fits
The world is so full of nuts that
we never could see any use of a
squirrel starving to death.
We guess as long as they can
wear the pants around the house the
women do not care snap about
wearing Knockers out in public.
A wife with a good disposition
never has any trouble keeping her
husband in hot water, you will
notice.
When a girl wants to tell the
world just how silly she can be she
does her hugging in the front seat
of the motor car while she and
"Sweetie' are driving through the
principal streets of the town.
Yes, and there are plenty of peo-
pie who would rather have you lie
about them than to tell the truth
about them-and you can't blame
them.
There are lot of girls behind
the counters of our department
stores who add quite a little to the
scenery, but they're not much good
as clerks.
Judging from what we have OBJ
served lately we guess the girls of
today are not any more particular
about what they hang on their ears
than they are of what they let get
into their ears.
The honeymoon is over when the
bride begins to dress for breakfast
the way she used to at home.
The reason some men never mar
ry the second time is because they
find one mother-in-law is all they
can stand in one lifetime.
Early to bed and early to rise may
make man healthy, wealthy and
wise. but it sometimes seems as If
the birds who believe in the late to
bed and late to rise stuff get the
most fun out of life.
1t is gonna be a great relief to
some men to have their wives wear
ing longer skirts, but they don't see
any use of other mems wives giving
up these comfortable, short skirts
Just because the fashion tells them
to.
The trouble with whirlwind
courtship is it is too liable to run
into cyclones after the wedding.
III girl wants a man he doesn't
nave TO worry about whether he
ought 10 get married or not-the
girl and her mother are already
planning the wedding.
we suppose when they begin
wearing long skirts there will be
some or them who will have to begin
wearing wells again. Deep stuff, 30.

LOCKWOOD WRIT
 |S TAKEN UP"
Olmstead & Gillelen's Attorneys Give Notice of Appeal of Hes la Decision Following Judg- ment Entered by Court Here

Notice was received here yesterday by attorneys concerned in the recent highway commission litigation that Olmsted X Gillelen, parties to a suit that wound up the relations between their engineer firm and the old high way commission, had taken the necessary steps to appeal the rulings of Superior Judge A. C. Lockwood to the state supreme court Judge Lockwood's recent visit here when he entered the final orders on motion of O'Sullivan & Morgan, counsel for the intervenots in the famous Hesla highway suit, was the step that made it possible for counsel for the engi- neers to perfect their appeal.
 The appeal will e seek to try the legality Of the ruling of Judge Lock wood when he held on motion of Messrs. O'Suflivan &Morgan that the old highway commission was without power to enter into contract the life of which was not coterminous with the tenure in office of the mem bers. It was the ruling on this point that thrust the litigation into its final stages without any hearing of fact or argument upon the chief is sues in contest.

of Arizona. Let Mir. Colvocoresses take broad view of the proposition If he can, and we do hope he will withdraw the ugly ideas included in his charge against the commission and the energetic corps of engineers who made the reconnaissance survey and their unbiased report.
 II is likely that it may take little more money to build road than the preliminary survey calls for; but when Mir. Colvocoresses makes that statement, he knows full well that the same thing is just as apt to be true concerning the Black Canyon iroad. He knows of the numerous high hills and steep pitches that must be overcome on that road. If he had been with those engineers he would have known that they did honest work and careful work and that their report, while preliminary in measure, is very close to facts and the estimate a lot nearer the truth than any other estimate recent ly made in this county with reference to the building of any roadway.
 Building the Jerome road was a different matter from building road over .the comparatively smooth coun- | try after you leave the Hassayampa. And, the upper Hassayampa has a dandy road into it now, for eight miles south of Prescott and in the no distant future the rich silver, cop per and gold mines of that section will be bound to have an outlet, and that is why the county has already built this eight miles of feeder road. More must be built, and that will cut short that much work on the main line road to California, and this means to the main national highway. There is no need for our good friend of the smelter to islander the mines and mining districts of all the rest of the county except the Black Can yon country.
 Respectfully yours,
 ELI s. PERKINS.

LIGHTING CABLE TO
 BE IN BY FEBRUARY

Cable for feeding the juice to Pres cott's new downtown lighting system will all be installed by the end of January, according to Gary O. Vyne of Vyne Bros. Electric company, the, firm recently awarded the con tract for installing ornamental lights in the downtown section of the city.
 At present cable is being laid on North Cortez street between Willis and Gurley, opposite the postoffice. Cable in the lower block from Will lis to the Santa Fe depot is laid and covered. In order to avoid tearing up future street paving, the cable is being laid just under the curb, where it can be reached by trouble shooters with the minimum of delay and disruption of asphalt. At alley crossings it is laid in conduit.
 The laying of cable will be follow ed by the installation of the stand ards, which are now almost com pleted by the Arizona Iron Works in Phoenix. The standards will not be shipped until shortly before the local contractors are ready to place them. The bases are being laid with the cable.

RUBY SLAYERS
 TO SEE JUSTICE
Martinez Confession Bids Fair to Bring Perpetrators of Outrage to Justice; Bandit Returned Through Campbell
CJournal-Miner Capital Bureau)

NOOhl SepALoA
 PHOENIX, Dec. 20.-The comics sion of Manuel Martinez, lying bare the identity of the Mexicans who robbed the Ruby postoffice and mur- dered the postmaster and his wife, bids fair to bring the perpetrators of this outrage to justice.
 County Attorney DeReimer of Santa Cruz county has worked un- ceasingly on the case, determined that the men who were responsible for the crime should not go unpun- ished. It was through the efforts of Governor Campbell, however, that Martinez was brought back across the line from Mexico, where he had fled. He appealed direct to President Obregon, who ordered the deporta ton of Martinez and wired the gov ernor as follows:
 Your courteous message of day before yesterday. l have ordered that Manuel Martinez be passed over the line with the understanding that he not return to this country with out bringing complete documents which the immigration laws require"
 Sheriff George White of Santa Cruz was notified of the orders is- sued by President Oregon and was waiting at the line to take Martinez into custody.

 The paying public will save one and one-half millions of dollars each month from now hence This is the effect, according to o. H, Tucker, of the kindly forethought of the senately fathers in Washington, who eliminated the war tax on express shipments.
 So, three days more and a thing goes by express for just what the rate is; the shipper saves money un- less the consignee finds Collect" on the waybill, the American Railway Express company saves bookkeeping and everything IS more or less better.
 Uncle Sam is the only one who suffers any punishment by this act he loses a mere $17,5O2,4 AIS a year, that is if year is exactly as fruitful as 1920 was.
 Each parcel carries tax of one cent per 20 cents or fraction of ex- press charge. The average express parcel carriess charges of Sl.50 and the average tax is 8 cents.
 MT. Tucker, who is the local ex- press agent, has been instructed by the president of the company, George (. Taylor, that shipments sent pre- paid up to midnight Saturday, De- cember 3l, will carry the tax and those sent collect to be received by the consignees after that time, will not carry the tax

 SUPERIOR HIGHWAY
t1ournal-Miner Capital Bureau)


 PHOENIX, Dec. 29.-The Miami Boosters club intend to "say it with copper" upon the occasion of the formal opening of the Superior Miami highway, which. according to present plans, will occur about the first of April. A copper plate, made from metal produced from the mines of that locality, is in process of manufacture at the present time On it will be inscribed the history of the highway, which will be one of the finest in the state, both from scenic and construction standpoint.
 Governor Campbell has been asked to participate in the ceremonies and has consented to make a few re- marks. As he signed both of the bills appropriating money for this road and as it has been constructed under his administration he is in a position to tell the economic and other reasons which will be advanced by its completion.
 The Miami people expect a large crowd at the celebration, having in- vited the notables of the state to join with them in the celebration. Invi- tations to the delegates to the Bank head National highway and United States Good Roads association con- vention, which will be meeting in Phoenix at that time, will also be extended

 Dickerson left the scene of the dramatic end of the bandits career and returned to Ash Fork where he made his report to the Journal- Miner by long distance.
 The Ash Fork party had been compelled to walk eight miles to reach Pima Vita, owing to the con dition of the road, and it is assumed that they were seen by Winton and that their presence caused him to seek refuge in the section house.

 SLIPS THROUGH TRAP
 Twice the police were close upon the trail of this man but both times he successfully slipped through the trap that had been set for him, with out, however, even being aware that the officers were close upon his trail.
 The officers were given clews that led to the arrest of Pontius and Miss Simpson. After a short grilling at the hands of the police officers both broke down and made full confes- sions.
 In making his statement to the of ficers Pontius was careful to tell that he was not present at the time of the shooting. But he told the police how the ynen who were implicated in the shooting had made a full state ment to him and had told him why they shot the two officers. His con fession in part follows:
 1t was about II o'clock on the night of December that I was lying on a couch in the house in which we all lived reading and smoking, when Wendell and Rowell drove up in their machine. They seemed to be greatly excited. One of the women in the house asked them what was the matter. They just said, We have been in a bad rumble.' Then they went to bed.
 TELL OF DOUBLE KILLING
 But the next morning one of the boys placed newspaper in my hands with the account of the killing of the policemen. They then told me that they had killed the officers.
 "They said that the two officers had stopped them and had questioned them and that one of the officers had told them that they would have to go to the police station. One of the policemen then got in their ma chine and the other followed in the police machine.
 After they had gone a short dis tance one of the gang knocked the policeman into the street and he started shooting. They then shot him. The other police officer came running up and was shooting and they shot him, also. Then they speeded up their machine and beat it away. The windshield of their ma chine was broken but they had it fixed up later"
 Powell or Richards was the last man taken by the police. He walked into trap set for him at SIP South Grand avenue where he was met by Detective Sergeants James Bean and Chester Smith. At the points of their pistols the officers forced the man to surrender Hhe had no pistol on him at the time.
 The others were arrested in Vari- ous sections of the city.
 WHEATON'S STORY
 Wheaton also made full comics sion, according to the police, and told in detail of the manner in which the officers were slain and of the circum- stances that led up to the shooting. His statements bear out those made by Pontius.

DEATH PENALTY IS
 DEMANDED FOR THE
 POLICE MURDERERS

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 26. - The slayers of Patrolmen William A. Brett and Harry Chester must face the hangman.
 Such is the demand of every mem Der of the Los Angeles police force, as well as the officers whose hard and efficient police work resulted in the rounding up of all but one of the alleged slayers = Detective Ser geants Raymond, Hickok and Erven.
 The officers point to the fact that they have secured confessions from practically every member of the gang, They insist that as the two slain of- ficers were shown no mercy by the alleged gangsters on the night of December 6, when they were shot to death, that mercy should not now be extended to the guilty ones.
 MAY PREVENT MURDERS
 "If these men are forced to mount the gallows," said a high police of ficial, "it will ot only be serving the ends of justice, but it will also serve las a warning to others who might be tempted to take the life of another rather than face the possibility of go- ing to jail for ] crime already com mitted."
 Search for Wendell was being di- rected in San Diego and nearby cities today. Detectives Erven, Hic- kok and Raymond, who. first secured the clew that led to the arrest of the alleged gangsters and then staged the arrests, are directing the search for Wendell.
 BORDER BEING WATCHED
 Every police officer in the state was armed with description of the man and it was believed only a ques- ton of time until he is gathered into the net that had been spread for him. Steps had been taken to apprehend him should he. attempt to cross the Mexican boundary line.
 The last seen of the man was last evening, when he was observed rid ing through Compton in a Dodge roadster. Two men accompanied him, The number plates had been removed from the machine.
