ATTEMPTED BURGLARY AT

About 1880 a. m. Wednesday Ed
Kirwan was awakened by the sound
of footsteps on the front porch Of
his home. 1t also sounded as if some
one was trying to enter the door. Clad
only in nightclothes Ed went to the
door just in time to see a man leaving
the house. The man appeared to be
in no hurry and was walking at an
ordinary rate of speed. Mr.. Kirwan
fired his revolver in the gutter to
scare the intruder but with no avail
The man just kept on walking, not
evens so much as turning around to

Superintendent Frank Richmond re-

For the position of city engineer
there were four applications: Mr..
Goodman, Capt. J. B. Wright, city en-
gineer recently up until Monday, L. B.
Taylor of Flagstaff, and w. P. Collins
of Superior.
For city marshal, Mr.. Neill sought
reappointment, the other applicants

and Lee Allsup.
For police magistrate the applicants
were: w. H. Anderson, who had been
in that position during the recent
months; Mr.. Sheffield and ]. L.
Daugherty.
DR.. Felix Manning was reappointed
city health officer. There were no
other applicants.
f. w. Perkins was reappointed city
attorney, Frank Harrison being the
other applicant.
L. w. Kelly was reappointed
driver Of the fire truck and Jack M.
Wilson fire chief. There were no
others after those jobs.
Besides Mr.. Compton, park custo-
dian a year ago, who got the place

Of the city employees reappointed
and those new to their jobs it can be
said they are all good men.
The retirement of City Marshal r.
L. Neill is great disappointment to
many, though this is no reflection at
all on his successor. Mr. Neill has
held the job for years, aggressively,
fearlessly and with decided ability.
1t is understood he has several as
good or better offers, but for a few
weeks, before deciding what he will
do, he and Mrs. Neil will have good
time at Roosevelt lake and other Ari-
zona summer places. He has worked

at the wheel, then turned around Miss
Pierce, who had not much experience
at driving, took the wheel. They had
gone about a mile when they noticed
two machines approaching. Miss
Pierce started to turn out, but at this
place the road had just been surfaced
with loose cinders. When the machine
struck the cinders it started to skid.
Miss Pierce gave the wheel twist
and brought it back into the road, but
she was blinded by the sun and, be-
coming excited, gave the wheel an
other twist.
The driver of the first machine ap-
preaching noticed the skidding and
pulled off to the side of the road. Just
as he stopped, the Ford came up even
with him and left the road. The bank
is not over three feet high at this
point, but there are some large Jumps
of cinders and when the wheels of the
Ford struck these it turned upside
down. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Daugherty
of South Dakota, who had been spend
ing the winter in Tucson, and were on
their way home, were in the first ma
chine. They, with the help of E. E..
Toler of Tucson, who had been follow
ing the Daugherty machine, lifted the
Ford and helped Stroud and Miss
Pierce out.
1t was necessary to turn the Ford
on it's side before Miss Hayes body
could be removed. The windshield
rested across the side of her face and
head. She was still breathing. Some
Mexicans, who happened along, we're
asked to get to the nearest telephone
and get a doctor, but before the doc
tors arrived she died.
Sheriff Campbell brought the body
to the Flagstaff Undertaking parlors,
where it was viewed by the coroner's
jury, composed of Walter Runke, De-
Forest Joralmon, Fred Browning,
Paul Coffin, J. C. Pierce and Bob
Mitchell. Then the jury went to Justice
r. ]. Kidd's office, where the inquest
was held. After the witnesses were
heard the jury returned a verdict of
accidental death.
Miss Hayes and Miss Pierce were
freshmen at the Union high school in
Phoenix, and had been chums for
some time. Robert Stroud is the son
of Mrs. Laura Stroud Of Tucson, and
was sophomore at the state univer-
sity. he had spent the last two sum-
mers working with Charlie Lindstrom,
who is camp foremen for the Saginaw
& Manistee Lumber Co., and was plan
ming to work this summer as usual.
The body was taken to Phoenix on
the noon train Wednesday by Mr.. and
Mrs. Lndstrom, who will remain for
the funeral.
Miss Hayes two companions were
not injured.

BOY CAPTURES GIANT
CENTIPEDE 81z INCHES LONG

Bob Carlow, son of Mr.. and Mrs.

of an 81a inch long centipede, which
he captured recently and which he
has artistically mounted on a white
cardboard, edged by a gray photo
graphic border. The centipede has 20
legs on its right side, and 19 on its
left, exclusive of the two legs which
protrude from the rear. Two long
"feelers" protrude from the insects

Webster has to say of the cent?
pede; The largest species, sometimes
eight or ten inches long, or even
more, inhabit tropical countries. Their
anterior legs are modified into poison
fangs with which the large species
can inflict painful but not usually
serious bites. They are useful as de-
stroyers of insects.-Miami Bulletin.

A late meeting of Presbyterian
churches was held at Ganado, where

of about 100000, for the benefit of
a $4,000 Indian population, mainly
Navajo and Hopi. The school includes
a well-equipped hospital, with an an
mex for tubercular patients, and has
its own ice plant, electric lighting
system, water system and steam
laundry, while coal is mined near by.
The northern presbytery declared
itself against war as moral wrong,
and went on record as opposed to the
use of churches in war propaganda.
Rev. Black of Fort Defiance was elect
ed moderator.
Rev. Benjamin H. Freye, lately of

doing constructive things, along with
genial philosophy and kindly fun.
DR.. McMullen brought up the fact
that he is leaving Normal at the close
of the summer session for a year of
teaching and study at Columbia Uni
versity. He said that Normal, being
an institution of the state with more
than thousand graduates, is bigger
than any man or group of men, and
said the school would go on, doing its
good work without regard to the
comings and goings of individuals.
He referred feelingly to the unani-
nous petition recently presented him
by the student body requesting him
to reconsider his resignation and re-
main here.
