SHRINERS GOING TO MEETING
DIPPED IN DISSECTION TANK

Arizona's foot and mouth disease
quarantine regulations requiring dis
infection of all railroad passengers
from California are still rigidly en-
forced with several hundred travellers
submitting to the cleansing process
daily.
In Kingman and at Grand Can
yon, several hundred Shriners travel,
ing from California to the national
Shrine convention at Kansas City,
have walked through disinfection
troughs to make certain they do not
carry the germs of the disease.
Fruit carried by large delegation
from San Francisco last week was
confiscated by quarantine inspectors
under the state order barring entry
of California soil products, with the
exception of citrus fruit in car load
lots. Shoes carrie by the travellers
in their baggage were removed and
dipped into the disinfection solution,
and their luggage was fun1igated, as
is customary under the restrictions.

interest in his lumber mill at, Riordan,
and who, since then has been in Cali

Deceased had been urged several
times lately to retire and take it easy.
1t was felt that there were no longer
financial reasons to compel him to
work. But he had always been an act
i've, outdoor man, loved the lumber
ing game and preferred work to the
ease his years of hard work had earn
ed for him. He died in the harness,
still a hale and vigorous man. His
sudden death is tragedy, but, per-
haps, death in the open at his work
would not have been far from his lik-
ing had he an intimation it was soon
to come and the choice of the form it
would take.
The funeral will be held this morn

SMOKI DANCE NEEDS
SNAKES; WORTH CASH

Something has happened to the "lit-
tie brothers. of the Smoki. Maybe
the gods are angry or perhaps they
have learned that some of the broth
ers" are held in cages in California
and are not allowed to return to take
their part in the rain DANCE and 50
have the reason, the snakes, usually
anxious to play their part in the an
nual ceremonies here, are in hiding
Only few of those necessary for
the successful presentation OF the
snake ceremony have been captured,
and many more are needed. The Smo-
XII snake wrangler has announced
that from now on the tribesmen would
pay 81 for each bull snake that is de-
livered to the offive of E. H. Lover
idge, in the Bashford block, or to the
Courier office.

BRANNEN SCHOOL PUPILS
SHOW REMARKABLE WORK

Teachers and pupils of Brannen
school are proud of the exhibit Of
pupils work shown in the various
rooms there this week. There IS rea-
son for their pride.
Walls of each Of the three rooms
are covered with colored and black
and white posters, samples Of writing,
cut-out work, sewing and numerous
other forms of handicraft. Each room
shows sand work, imitation indian
pottery, miniature Indian rugs, WOOD
working by the manual arts pupils,
etc.
Miss Ema Vandervoort's pupils IN
grade one made especially good show
ings with pressed flowers, cut-out
dolls, paper dolls fully clothed, dom
key, Peter Rabbit, circus and base
ball posters.
Miss Alma Acker's beginners were
strong in all lines, especially SO IN
plastic work, free-hand colored an0
black and white posters. In Wrltlng
they show proficiency far beyond their
years.
Miss Agnes Lynch's second and
tnlfu grades Olu CuSAlSClASo SSR-nn -
ly proud with sand map ON winch
were shown Winslow, Flagstaff, VII
lians and Grand Canyon. Flagstaff's s
depot was there; so was the Ell Toyar
hotel. The silvery Colorado, with Its
falls, the road to Tuba, big Indian
pueblo with many Indians and Their
animals-all there, even to the San
Francisco Peaks and Sunset noun,
tain. Then of course, there were all
the other forms Of display-minlature
Indian rugs and pottery, needle and
wood work, etc.
The interest the children and Their
parents take in the school was IN evl-
dence Tuesday when the display was
opened to the public. The pupils are
Spanish and Mexican. All day the
parents thronged in.
The work was really clever. fhat
children so small could have done II
all seemed almost incomprehenslDle
For instance, writing done by little
girl a year and half from Old Mex
leo was better than many adults with
years of schooling could boast.

time he couldn't remove it. The
wrenching back and forth Of the gun,
he said, hurt his finger very badly.
Smith said that when the gun went
off the second time he did not have
hold of the trigger, but did have hold
of the stock.
The first shot had gone through
Harry's body, the second shattered a
bone in his leg. He fell, Smith with
him.
Then, Smith testified, Charlie Wade
rushed out and began kicking him
kicked him in the body, the head, the
face. He rolled, crawied, tried to
shield his face with. his arms. Still
Charlie kicked him, kicked him until
he had to stop, gasping to recover
his breath; then started kicking him
again. Smith crawled to a car stand
ing near and stuck his head under the
running board for protection.
Charlie Wade in his testimony cor
roborated what Smith said about the
kicking.
But, while Smith testified that he
made no threats against Charlie when
he came up the steps with the gun,
Harry Wade testified that he did.
Smiths testimony about what he told
Sheriff W. A. Campbell about the af-
fair next morning at the Flagstaff
county Jail did not agree with Camp
BELLS testimony. He said Campbell
tried to make him say he went back
and got the gun to get Charlie Wade.
Campbell testified that he didn't try
to make him say any such thing, but
that Smith told him voluntarily that
such was his intention when he went
home and got the gun.
Campbell agreed with Smiths tes-
timony that the latter was fearfully
hurt about the face. DR.. Felix Man
ming dressed the wounds. Smith said
he thought at the time he was going
to die from his injuries.

ing as an acceptable expenditure
the wor kand cost involved where the
brush has been removed by cutting it
off even with the surface of the
grornd, thus leaving the roots in the
ground. The latter method is describ-
ed as railing and is held objection
able because the vegetation soon re-
turns. The amendment, however, is
not to be retroactive, Mr.. Towles said.
Those who take homestead claims
on desert lands are required to make
expenditures or designated amounts
and TO do designated amount of i'm

period of time. The requirements
vary with the particular class of land
homesteaded.
The following are classed as accent
able expenditures under the desert
land law: Construction and mainten-
ance of storage reservoirs, canals,
dams, bitches and laterals to be used
by the CLAIMANT for irrigating his
land, for necessary roads; for digging
wells to be used for irrigating Of
land; for leveling and bordering land
to be irrigated; for surveying Of levels
for lrrigating works, and for first
breaking and clearing of soil.
The following are the amendments
received by Mr.. Towles:
"The value to be attached to and
the credit to be given for an expen-
dlture for works or improvements is
the reasonable value of the work
done or improvements placed upon
the land, according to the market
price therefor, or for similar work or
improvements prevailing in the vicin-
ity and not for the amount alleged by
a claimant to have been expended,
nor the mere proof of expenditures
as exhibited by checks or other vouch-
ers.
Expenditures for the clearing of
the land will not receive credit in
cases where the vegetation or brush
claimed to have been cleared awav has
not been actually removed by the
clearing, where as a matter of fact
there has been only crushing or
rolling, or what is known in some To-
calities as railing the land, will not
be accepted"

BRIGHT ANGEL TRAIL APPRO-
PRIATION GIVEN APPROVAL

A Washington dispatch says: "The
conferees on the interior department
appropriation bill today accepted the
house amendment authorizing appro-
priation of 100000 for the purchase
of the Bright Angel trail in Arizona
This item has been in controversy
since March 18, and has prevented en-
actment of the bill.
Senator Cameron, republican, Arl-
IONA, who has opposed the appropria-
sion throughout, declared he would
drop the fight only in order that the
legislation might no longer be delayed.
He said the appropriation would be
without effect since the trail is owned
by Coconino county and its sale Is
prohibited by state law.

Many Tourists at Auto Camp Grounds

Patronage at Flagstaff auto camp
grounds is ON the increase. Not as
heavy as last year, but much better
than the hoof and mouth quarantine
against California had promised. Fif-
ty-five cars registered in last Thurs
day night, the record so far this sum-
mer, and 45 Saturday night. Many
the visitors stay several days and
some of them several weeks. In
spite of the quarantine, it is believed
the park population will be nearly as
great as last summer, and the tour
lists are of higher class.
There are IL of the new concrete
stoves, each large enough for use by
several families at time, and they
are proving popular. The flow of
city water to the park tank has been
fixed, and the supply made sure. C.
c. Compton says the visitors greatly
appreciate what is being done to make
their stay here comfortable and Flag
staff is getting world of favorable
advertising out of it.
