BOY, RUN OVER BY TRAIN,
LIES IN KINGMAN HOSPITAL,
WHICH HE HELPED TO BUILD

A II year old lad was run over by
a freight train on which he had been
riding yesterday morning. When the
boy was picked up by the train men
he was conscious and said he must
have gone to sleep and fallen down
between the cars.
Both legs were amputated by the
train and his right arm was cut off
between the elbow and shoulder Thru
out all of the intense suffering and
pain the plucky lad never whimpered
or let a moan escape.
While in the doctors office he talk
ed with these present and told one
little boy who happened to call at the
office to take fools advice and new
er hop a ride on a. freight. Justice
of Peace Miller said ,he had never
seen such control in either man or
boy as this badly mangled and prob
ably fatally injured boy displayed.
This morning at the Mohave coun-
ty hospital the boys parents who were
wired for and arrived this morning
were interviewed while the boy, Cecil
Ray Hartsf1eld was undergoing the
operations necessary. The grief
strickened mother was unable to talk
Dut the father who seemed resigned
to the terrible fate of his son told
of the history of the boy and that
they did not expect him to outlast the
operation.
1t seems the boy was bumming his
way from California to Arkansas
where he had relatives whom he wish
ed to visit. Two years ago when
Mr.. w. R. Hatfield and family were
travelling from Arkansas to California
they stopped in Kingman and stayed
with Tom Murphy for several months,
Mr.. fairfield working on the hospital
when it was under construction and
the injured lad also helping shingle
the hospital and is now reclining on
a spot where two years ago he was
vigorously pounding nails.-Mohave

PENNEY BUYING

At the buying conventions of the
J. c. Penney Company, held conse-
cutively, last month, at St. Louis,
Salt Lake City, Portland, st. Paul,
and Cleveland, the co-partner mana
gers of the combined ATS stores of
the organization placed orders for
holiday and Spring merchandise ag-
gregating $35 100000.
This undoubtedly is the largest
amount of merchandise ever purchas-
ed by one interest within a period of
one month.
The large demand upon manufac-
turers to take care of this great
volume of business, is illustrated in
one contract recently made by the
J.. c. Penney Company for 100000
nainsook suits of underwear of athle-
tic style, said to be the largest single
order of it's kind ever placed.
The total retail sales of this Ma
tion-wide institution, will reach near
$65, 100000 this year.

W|NSLOW STREETS
in GOOD CONDITION

City Engineer Ed. Johnson and
representative of the Mail took
ride about the city this week looking
over the condition of the roads.
Everywhere the streets are in excel
lent shape, were graded up and sand
ed or graveled where this is needed.
Cherry street which was inundated
during the food is we'll rounded UP
with lateral channels to carry any
drainage water. Numerous drain cul-
verts have been put in at various
crossings in the city to prevent water
from collecting in the streets.
A great deal of work has been done
on the Coopertown road south of the
Santa Fe tracks. The section be-
tween the railway cottages and Coop
ertown is in exceptionally good con-
dition. The stretch in front of the
cottages has been surveyed by City
Engineer Ed. Johnson, and provisions
have been made for a high road with
lateral channels running to the drain
ditch east of the city. Much grading
has already been done on the stretch,
and a large amount of dirt has been
hauled to fill in the low ground.
The lateral channels will carry the
water which collects back of the hos
pital and will eliminate the unsightly
as we'll as the germ-breeding mud
puddle When this work is cOmplet-
ed it will be a great Improvement to
that part of town.
Much work has been carried out in
improving the drainage conditions of
the land around the City Gas plant.
A channel is being cut to the drain
age ditch running along the highway,
and great amount of dirt has been
hauled to fill in the low ground. When
the work on this land has been finish
ed it will likewise eliminate the
standing water which collects around
the gas plant in the rain season often
interfering with the running of the
plant.
The large mound of gravel which
stood between Front street and the
Santa Fe tracks west of the freight
station has been hauled away for
use in various parts of the city
Last week the road force filled in
the low ground around the city hall
with cinders hauled from the Santa
Fe yards.
All these improvements have been
carried out under the supervision of
City Engineer Ed. Johnson.

JOE WOODS, FORMER SHERIFF,
LAID TO REST AT HOLBROOK

Word reached Holbrook Wednes-
day morning that Joseph F. Woods,
the well known Holbrook resident,
had died in the Gallup hospital that
morning at 5 o'clock. Upon hearing
the news, immediate plans were
started for bringing the remains to
Holbrook for interment. DR., A. F.
SwitZer took train No 22 that after
noon for Gallup and accompanied all
that remained of the mortal remains
of the old-timer to the community in
which he had lived so long.
The funeral took place this after
noon at o'clock and was under the
auspices of the B. P o. Elks, the in
terment takino place in the Holbrook
cemetery.
Joe Woods came to Holbrook from
Sacramento, Cal, in 1881. I'M the
former place he followed the occupa-
tion of Jockey; riding many of the
fast horses owned by the earIy-day
horsemen of California. Upon com
ing to Holbrook, he shortly entered
the cattle business in partnership
with Bert Porter, who now lives on
the coast.
Mr.. Woods for six years served as
sheriff of Navajo county He and
Nat Greer were in business in Hol-
brook for many years, Mr. Greer
being in partnership with him in the
operation of Woods poolroom up to
the time of his death. He leaves two
sons, Chauncey and Joe Woods, Jr.,
the latter residing in Holbrook
Chauncey and Joe by the Amer
lean Express Company at Needles.
Joe Woods was probably as we'll
known throughout the state of Ari-
zona as any man in it. He was kind
hearted and anyone needing any
thing Joe had, all he had to do was
to ask for it. He was held in high
esteem by the entire community as
we'll as the state generally, who feel
that his loss is a great blow to all
Mr.. Woods had suffered extremely
for the past three years, having un-
dergone an operation about two years
ago in Los Angeles. About month
ago he was taken to Gallup where
two operations were found necessary
He fought hard for recovery, but
Wednesday morning it was shown
the battle was too much for him and
he passed away in the hospital the
remains being brought to Holbrook
the next day for internment. He
was 81 years of age.
Mr.. Woods was born in PIaceville,
Cal, on November "a, 1859, which
would make him 81 years of age this
month.
The funeral took place from the
residence of Mrs. Rowena Woods at
3 o'clock this afternoon and was
largely ttended.-Holbrook Tribune

THE SCOTTISH RITE MASONS

More than 100 prominent Masons
from all parts of the state as well as

The ceremonies of initiation will last
through Wednesday. The visiting
Mason" began arriving as early as

heavy rains in the Salt river valley
the large delegation from Phoenix
was unable to travel by motor and
was forced to come by train.
Heading the various delegations is
Grand Master Sidney Sapp of Hol-
brook, who heads the Masons of the
state. Another noted Masonic visitor
is George S. Sloan of Miami, well
known educator and minister and A.
T. Matthews, president of the Tempe
Normal school. President Matthews
is taking the higher degrees in Scot
tish Rite Masonry. The ineffable
degree from the fourth to the tenth,
which occupied the morning session,
were conferred by degree team
from Phoenix. Following a luncheon
at noon a meeting of the grand lodge
Of Arizona was called into session
and was followed by the laying of
the high school corner stone under

MELLON FIRM. IN
OPPOSITION
To BONUS
If Bill Is to Be Enacted, Secre'
tary Favors New Form
of Taxation.

Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
still stands opposed to the granting
of a bonus to American world war
veterans, unless special taxation Is
provided by Congress to meet the
compensation payments, it was an
nounced officially at the Treasury
Department today.
It was Melons opposition to the
bonus in the last Congress that
largely influenced President Harding
to veto the adjusted compensation
bill; and not only does the Secretary
of the Treasury think that some new
form of taxation should be devised
If bonus bill is enacted, but. he Ia
opposed to the legislation on general
principles.
In face of this opposition, how
ever, Senator Reed Smoot (Rep) of
Utah, who will be the chairman of

ROOSEVELT NO I
To CUT.NAVAL
ESTIMATES
Decides to Stand Pat Against
Lords Demand for Reduction
Of $4,000. 900.

After comforting with President
Coolidge, Acting Secretary of the
Navy Roosevelt has decided to
s'stand pat" on his originN esti-
mate Of expenditures for the next
fiscal year, despite the demand of
the Bureau of the Budget for q
100000 reduction, it was learned
at the Navy Department today.
Only minor reductions will be
provided for, according to naval Of
ficials, in the schedule of estimates
which will be re-submitted to Bud
get Director Lord.
Laid Before Coolidge.
In a conference with, the Pres.
ident at the White House, Secretary
Roosevelt laid the case of the navy
before the executive, pointing out
the disastrous effect of the pro.
posed cut and declaring that it
would be impossible to maintain the
navy at the strength authorized by
the Washington treaty IL Director
Lords order was not rescinded.
Lords letter, suggesting the total
amount to be slashed from the esti-
mates, leaves the way open for
further negotiations, 1t was learned
today.
NO flat instructions were given,
the changes desired being put in the
form of suggestions" making it
possible for the Navy to have an
other hearing.
Means $34, 900, 900 Cut.
Another phase Of the controversy
was brought out by naval officials
today. The budget figures for last
year show a total of 1000, 900
appropriated for the navy, whereas
the actual amount made available
by Congress was 1926, O00, 900, the
difference being in supplementary
appropriations Of $20,OOO,000 from
the small stores fund and $4,000,
900 from the navy supply accounts
which was converted for new con
struction work.
This makes the total amount al
lowed by the budget for next
year $292,0OO, 900, an actual reduc-
ton of 100000 below the funds
being spent this year, in spite Of
the increased expenditures naces
STATED by the number Of new ships
to be commissioned.
