with Rabbits in the meat department,
have won him much popularity A
meat department will be added short
ly, with him in charge
Mr.. Hobbs is his brother-in-law and
came here last week from Carlsbad,
N. NJ, to locate and it didn't take him
long to find what he wanted. He was
in business there for himself for sew
eral years. Previous to that he had
always been in the grocery business
and is a hustler.
Messrs. Hobbs and Hudgens will
make Considerable Improvement in the
arrangement of the store and will
stock up for a lively trade
Tom McWilliams moved this week
from the apartment above the store
to his house on West Birch avenue.
He will remain in Flagstaff, which
will be good news to his many friends.

ROTARIANS HEARD FINE
ADDRESS BY DIR. BARKER

The Rotary motto, "He, Profits
Most Who Serves Best" was striking
ily exemplified yesterday. The local
club, having brought Dr. Charles f.
Barker of Grand Rapids, Mich, a
super Rotarian, here at considerable
expense to deliver three addresses
during the day, themselves were
treated by him to- special address
at their luncheon yesterday, post
poned from Tuesday, the regular day,
to hear him.
Flagstaff Rotarians received won
derful profit from DR.. Barker's talk,
his subject 'FBy-Products of Rotary"
profit in inspiration to straight
dealing, clean-living and sympathy
and understanding with others whose
religious beliefs may be different.
DR.. NJ G. Fronske, president of the
club, called the meeting to order and
introduced Dayt Draine, chairman of
the day, who, after he had Doc Will
liams' peppy orchestra play several
selections, introduced DR.. Barker and,
when the latter was through talking,
gracefully thanked him.
Members of the Rotary club ac-
companied Dir. Barker to his other
meetings. John @. Thomas, superin-
tendent city schools, introduced him
at the high school in the morning;
Mrs. Frank NJ Gold, president
Woman's club, at the afternoon talk
to women and girls at the Woman's
clubhouse, which was jammed to the
doors; and President f. A. Cotton of
Teachers college at college auditor
ium in the evening.
Dr. Barker made hundreds Of
friends here yesterday and will long
be remembered. Better still, his force
ful, straight-hitting talks viii prove
fine influence in many lives.

EMIL LIPP BEATEN UP
BY ROBBER- THUG; MAN
SUSPECTED NOW IN JAIL

Jack Coleman was lodged in coun-
ty jail here Monday on charge of
assault with intent to murder. The
victim of the assault was Emil Lipp,
well known Flagstaff man, who still
| is in Mercy hospital as the result Of
being beaten about the head with It
two-by y-four; and both he and jack
ellis were robbed.
The attack on Lipp was cowardly
in the extreme and County Attorney
Frank Harrison, convinced of the
guilt of Coleman, will do all in his
power to send him to the penitentiary.
The double offense was committed
last Thursday night, the scene the
group of small one-room cottages on
West Phoenix avenue, which are oc-
cupied entirely by men. Several Of
the fellows had been visiting, among
them Coleman, Lipp and Gillis. There
may have been something to drink.
Anyhow, Gillis seems TO be a little
hazy about how he lost his watch and
$50 in cash.
Lipp wasn't at ell in doubt, appar-
emily, about who came into his shack
and started to roll" him, and then,
when he resisted, slugged him over
the head When he recovered con-
sciousness late next day at Mercy hos
pital he said Coleman was his as
sailant. He claimed Coleman had
robbed him of $500
Lipp was badly bruised and cut on
the forehead and about the eyes, one
of the cuts bleeding so hard as to
make it doubtful for day or so
whether he would recover. His con-
dition was aggravated by his not be-
ing discovered by Gills, his fellow
victim, until in the morning, several
hours following the occurrence and
after Dr.. r. NJ Francis and Mr. and
Mrs 0. A. Ude, the latter distant
relatives, were called.
The sheriff's office wasn't notified
until late Friday 1t was found that
four tickets had been sold on the
early morning train east, one 10 Las
Vegas, N. NJ, to a man exactly an
sWering to Coleman's description,
even to the huge Stetson hat he wore
Coleman didn't keep on to Las
Vegas, however, but went to Santa
Fe, where he was arrested on Sun
day He waived extradition and
Deputy Sheriff Harry Greene went
after him.
When arrested Coleman had ellis
watch and about $50 in cash. He
was known to have been stone broke
up to the night before he left here.
He claimed he got the watch and
money playing poker with someone
who had got them from ellis and
.Lipp. He said numerous other things
several of which already have been
found to be lies. Coleman formerly
lived in Billings, Mont, and Santa
Fe and was in jail in Santa Fe only
last month
