FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., June 80.
Strangers arriving here and
tourists passing through Flag
staff are being shocked by the
rough, uncouth appearance of the
men of this section.s
Most of the visitors think that
they are either in the midst Of
d band of outlaws or that they
have just arrived at the last
real West.
The explanation is that Flag
staff is preparing to hold q real
days of 49'' celebration on
July 2, 8, 4, and 5, and IN con-
sequence every male citizen has
signed pledge 70 neither shave
nor cut his hair until after those
dates. The result is truly star

Bankers, lawyers, doctors, n1er-
chants and men in every line Of
business, usually close shaven
and neatly dressed, are wearing
hirsute growths several weeks
old, together with flannel shirts,
cowboy hats and even the regu-
lation high topboots.

Woman Had Marked Pistol
and Cartridge - Death
Of Racreas Horace

Revenge in an original and
unique form, was frustrated at
Fourth and K streets at 10
o'clock this morning, through the
bad craftsmanship of woman.
Horace and Marie Littleton,
both colored, had become es-
tranged through the alleged inter-
vention Of ''lady friend" Of
Horace, dubbed by his wife as .
"Lothario."
Called Him From Home
The only thing to do was to
shoot Horace, his wife reasoned, so
accordingly she went to his new
abode, 424 X street northwest, also
the home Of the alleged lady friend.
Horace, come'er. / got some
thing for YOU" she called.
Horace, a bit skeptical, but un-
afraid, went out into the yard.
Horace, honey, | got something
wife said. II come'er to give 1t TO
personally"
Horace extended his hand.
Ditto Marie.
But in the latters hand was a
shining revolver, which "barked"
once.
Cartridge Marked
A riot call from headquarters
stopped further hostilities. Both
were arrested and the revolver
taken from Marie.
On the butt had been inscribed
the following:
Bought to kill Horace by Marie. :"
The empty cartridge bore the
laconic words:
For Horace"
A charge of assault with a
dangerous weapon has been booked
against Marie at the Sixth precinct
station, and she is being held at
the House of Detention, while
Horace is also being held.

attorneys obtaining writs of
deuces tecum, ordering the Poto-
mac Electric Power Company. to
produce its books in court in
cases where the refund checks
are attached by creditors, and the
settlement Of claims of sub
tenants, who have paid electric
light bills in the name of the
original tenant, is causing no end
of worry to officials of the
power company.
Double Claims Feared.
Power company officials antici-
pate a large number Of claims for
refunds from persons who have
rented apartments and houses from
those who had original contracts
with the power company for fur
nishing light, to whom checks have
already been made out.
It is expected that at later
date, maybe a year or two later,
applications will be made for re-
funds by tenants who continued to
pay electric light bills in the name
of the original contractor who had
already been paid in full the entire
amount of the refund to which the
books Of the company showed they
were entitled.
The company is also having its
hands full in settling claims of d.
vorced or separated couples where
the husband has filed claim for
refund. The wife would also come
In and file another claim, stating
that she had been paying the cleo.
trio light bills in her husbands
name, although separated for two
or three years.
Will File Petition.
Attorneys for the company APP
peared in Municipal Court today
and served notice that they would
file a petition asking the judges of
the Municipal Court not to issue
writes Of deuces tecum in ga. nish-
ment cases. They stated that they
expected 1000 such cases to be
filed, and that IL the company were
made to produce it's books in such
cases it would seriously impair the
working of sending out the refund
checks.
In a large number of garnish-
ment cases, attorneys for the
creditors will receive a disagreeab BILE
surprise, for the majority of the
refund checks due are exceedingly
small, it was stated by the power
company attorneys today.
Smaller Than Cost.
"Of the 200 attachments that
have already been filed the refund
checks involved are in almost every
instance less than the cost of the
attachment papers," one OF the
power company lawyers said. Cost
of garnishment attachments are
$3.50.
In a great number OF cases gar

against persons who have not yet
filed their applications for the re-
fund. In such cases the writs will
be ignored by company officials, 1t
being explained that in such in
stances the electric light consumer
