FEDERAL HIGHWAY PROJECTS
HALTED IN WINTER SEASON

With the closing of the Flagstaff
Angel road project, all work on fed
eral aid and forest highway construc-
ton projects has been discontinued for
the winter months, with the exception
of the Prescott Whitespar road, which
was begun a few days ago and which
will be continued through the winter,
according to officials Of the United
States Bureau of Public roads.
Orders were issued last week to
cease concrete work on the Flagstaff
Angel project and to stop all opera
tons for the winter, with the excep-
tion of building one small steel bridge.
A contract for the construction of
the Prescott Whitespar road was
awarded to Lee Moor of Ell Paso a
few weeks ago. Steam shovel work
on the project has already begun and
the contractor has announced his in
tention of continuing the work
through the winter.

GOODMAN WILL STAY
STATE ENGINEER

State Engineer Frank r. Goodman
will not quit his post, despite the. re-
cent action of the governor in turning
over supervision of the state highway
department to E. w. Samuel, secre-
tary of the board of state institutions.
This was made known by the engineer
following conference of himself and
the governor Mr.. Goodman returned
from New Orleans, where he attended
the convention of the highway engin-
eers of the United States.
"All this talk about resigning is
news to me-" Mr.. Goodman said. 81
have talked the matter over with the
governor, and the new arrangements
are satisfactory to me. I'm only con-
cerned with the building and main
tenance of roads along economical
lines, and / am perfectly willing for
Mr.. Samuel to take the responsibility
of authority over the department"
Mr.. Samuel was not at the confer
ence of Mr.. Goodman and the COVER
nor, he being on a road inspection
trip. At the governors office it was
stated the change in the highway de-
partment would in no way affect the
road work of the state, except to cur
tail expenditures where it can be done
without affecting construction pro-
grams.

Last Thursday the women of the
church voted to cooperate in the work
of the Missionary and Ladies' Aid So
cieties as one society. This forward
step will assist greatly in prompting
the work of the church.
Copies of the proposed amendment
which will permit other churches to
federate with the NJ. K. and Presby-
terians were circulated last Sunday in
church. This amendment was printed
in full in last weeks Sun, and it is
urged that back numbers be purchas-

which is a fine indication of the pub

AFTER TWO YEARS LIBERTY
TWO PRISONERS ARE RE-
TURNED TO STATE PRISON

Two escaped convicts from Florence
who have eluded arrest, one for eight
years and the other seven years, spent
the night in the Pima county Jail.
The two men, after enjoying years
of freedom, were brought from the
east by Thomas A. French, captain Of
the guard at the Arizona state pris-
on, who was sent after the captured
convicts.
They were identified by means of
finger prints sent to the Florence
prison.
Francisco Garcia, convicted and sem
fenced from Greenlee county for first
degree burglary, was caught in Eagle
River, Mich. He effected his escape
from the Arizona penitentiary eight
years ago. He was serving a sentence
of from one to two years.
M. L. Carmichael, who was sent up
from Tucson on a fictitious check
charge, was serving from two to five
years. He made his getaway seven
years ago. Carmichael was captured
in Dodge City, Kansas. Captain
French was sent to both the Michigan
and Kansas cities after the escaped
men.
He took with him Letha Jordan,
who was brought here as chief wit
ness against George Parker, who was
yesterday exonerated of participation
in the murder of Josie Mcconnell, for
which Letha is now serving a sem
tence.

The officers destroyed about hun
dred gallons of raisin mash. They
brought in the 5-gallon copper stiil
and worm and some of the mash and
finished product.
The white drink seized there is iden-
tical in appearance and in other ways
to the stuff found in the Kazub-Finn
car. As the arrest of the latter pair
occurred near Lake Mary, that gives
additional weight to the theory that
the two parties were in caIoots, the
officers feel.
A Flagstaff physician analyzed
some of the booze the other day. He
believes some poisonous substance had
been used for base, and said that a
half pint bottle full, if drunk at one
time, would kill any man. The sheriff
on Wednesday sent a sample to the
state laboratory at Tucson for further
analysis.
Basiha, when questioned at the
county Jail by a reporter for The Sun
on Wednesday, Edward Priest acting
as interpreter, said the booze was
made entirely from raisins-or grapes,
as he called them-and that no drug
had been added
Kazub lost his civil service lob at
Tuba City, where he had been work
ing for a week as blacksmith, through
his arrest. The ownership Of the car
IS not quite clear, both Kazub and
Mrs. Finn, apparently, having some
equity in it. 1t was a new car last
summer. 1t was not confiscated.

Correction
! : 80 +%a4% @4 !.

Last weeks issue of this paper, in
an article headed "The Egg Laying
Contest" contained an error in which
the word low was used instead of high.
The idea intended to be conveyed was
that owing to the fact of the high
average egg laying birds included in
the contest and the accompanying fact
that large number of the eggs had
been laid in the high-priced season,
the price received for all eggs was
necessarily high-47 cents per dozen.
This is an important fact that
should be kept in mind by the egg
producer. A good laying hen not only
produces more eggs than the poor
layer and at lower cost, but she is
necessarily a consistent layer produc-
ing eggs in liberal quantities in the
co-called off seasons when the poor
layer is taking a rest. AS egg prices
at such seasons are high it follows
that the average price for the years
eggs from such hen is much high
er than from the poor laying hen

longing to the very best haute monde,

issued by the state supreme court di-
recting Judge Sweeney of the Yavapai
county superior court to dismiss the
disbarment complaint brought in that
court against Robert McMurchie, sus-
pended county attorney of Yavapai
county, or appear before the supreme

rects the judge to recognize McMur-
chic as county attorney of Yavapai

ecution and pleadings Of cases and the

1t also directs Judge Sweeney to per-
nit MeMurchie to practice before the
bar of the court as a private attorney.
Judge Sweeney, who has presided
IN the disbarment case in the Yavapai
county superior court to date and who
is made co-defendant with the SUPER
lor court of the county in McMurchie's
petition for the writ, stated he was not
prepared to announce which of the
alternatives he would accept or what
his course of action would be beyond
that, of course, he would comply with
the mandate of the court.

pending on the results of his findings.
One of the chief advantages in the
contemplated road, Mr.. Wheeler
pointed out, will be the fact that so
Of the IS miles will lie in forest res
ervation territory, the cost to be
borne by the federal government,
leaving only Is miles which the state
will be required to finance.
Mr.. Wheeler said that in addition
to the report which he viii submit to
Washington officials within the next
week, detailed survey of the project
will probably be undertaken during the
early part OF next year to ascertain
the probable cost Of construction.
Financing Of the project has not yet
been determined, but Mr.. Macdonald
and Mr.. Mather, at Washington, have
announced their intention of co-operat-
ing closely within the next few months
in the effort to secure the necessary
funds for the work, Mr.. Wheeler said.
The issue arose at the New Orleans
conference, through the general policy
of the national parks commission to
secure good roads as far as possible
from the main routes of travel to the
national parks, Mr.. Wheeler stated.

Says Had Three Feet Snow

j. w. Etter was in Tuesday from
Dead Mans Flat and says the story
that they had Is inches of snow there
last week was a libel. He says there
was three feet and the misguided
wretches who belittled the thickness
of it didn't attempt to negotiate it
until it had settled to half its original
bulk. His son Cleon climbed to the
top of OLeary Peak the first of the
week and found there was less than
10 inches there, which indicates the
spottiness Of the storm.
