PHOENIX MAN FOUND
DEAD WITH POISON

W. A. Laird, 55, resident of ,Phoe-
nix for the past II years, reported
missing early Friday morning, was
found dead in an arroyo located in a
lonely part of the Phoenix mountains,
at 1890 o'clock Saturday morning.
The aged man, in the opinion of Cor
oner Nat T. Mckee, committed sui
eide.
Laird's body, discovered by Robert
Holman, close friend, was lying
near his automobile, parked near a
road which angles south from the XII
wants trail, about a half mile from
the end of South Central avenue.
A bottle containing small guam
tity of a powerful disinfectant, an
empty glass and the package in
which the bottle was wrapped were
found near the body, which was lying
face downward with the right arm
and leg crumpled underneath. Laird's
face and neck were black from the
effects of the poison. A small bottle
containing strychnine tablets was dis
overed in the dead mans pockets.

PAROLED BAD EGG
CAUGHT IN KANSAS CITY

Word reaches Holbrook, through
the sheriff's office, of the arrest in
Kansas City, Mo-, of Sims Ely, vino
was wanted for embezzlement from
the Halstead Lumber company at
Winslow, being charged with getting
away with several hundred dollars
while bookkeeper for the concern
about year ago. He has been
sought through police channels ever
since. The officers at Kansas City
telegraphed the local sheriff's office
that they had Ely under arrest in
that city. He will probably not be
brought to Navajo county, from the
fact that he is charged with issuing
fictitious cheks at that place. He
will probably be tried there.
It will be remembered that Sims Ely
was bookkeeper for the defunct Hol-
brook State Bank about five years or
more ago, since which time he has
been in various parts of the state,
continually getting in trouble with
the law.-Holbrook Tribune.

NAVAJOS ARE TO HAVE
REAL GRUNT GRAMMAR

A manual of the Navajo Indian
Grammar has been prepared by Faith
er Bernard Halle. o. f. NJ, of the
Cincinnati province of st. John the
Baptist, and which has just been
published
The work contains 320 pages, and
is re first comprehensive study that
ha&7been made of the language of the
Navajo Indians, nomads of the desert
of northern Arizona and New Mexico.
They closely resemble in many ways
the Mongolians of Asia, but whose
language, the manual shows is far
more difficult than even the Chinese.
The value of the work also is of
interest to students of ethnology and
languages. It's sponsors believe that
it may some day furnish the key to
the suspected racial bond between the
peoples of Asia and the aborigines of
America.
To the layman the Navajo langu-
age presents little but an avalanche
of consonants, diagraphs, g1ottal and
aspirated stops, nasalized vowels, and
other difficulties.

visitors from Flagstaff and other
neighboring points, but last Sunday
instead many of the residents here
were in Flagstaff visiting the graves
of friends or relatives.

accepted a position in Flagstaff. Her
daughter, Mrs. Dan Thompson, took
her into town late Sunday afternoon
to begin her duties there.

service in the school houseXS Winons

effect a Sunday school organization

eight very small children in attend
ance. Mr.. Todd's visit was in re-
sponse to Mrs. Vaughn's request for
Sunday school organization printed

correct place to give publicity to
ones desires.
The fertile soil at Winona brings
speedy harvests. Already much of the
