Gives Self Up On
Old Murder Charge

Melvin Burnett, 81, a cowboy for
merly employed on the OK ranch near
Prescott, Tuesday walked into the Of
flee of Assistant District Attorney J..
J. Sweeney at Prescott and gave him.
self up for the murder of James
Brown on September II, 1921.
For SIX years search has been in
stituted throughout the west and into
Mexico for Burnett, who once was
charged with the crime, but Yavapai
court attaches could find no record Of
charges Tuesday and new charges
were prepared
Burnett was accompanied by Neil
C. Clark, Phoenix attorney. Burnett's
bond was fixed at $500 and was
promptly posted by friends. Through
out the proceedings Burnett did not
say word. Clark was formerly die
trict attorney of Yavapai county,
where the alleged murder occurred.
According to Yavapai county au-
thorities Brown was killed while driv-
ing a herd of cattle near the o II
ranch. Trouble, known to have exist
ed between cattlemen in that vicinity
and the subsequent disappearance of
Burnett, Immediately caused an ex-
tensive search to be made for Bur
nett.
The alleged slayer's escape is said
to have been effected through his us
ing two horses, one shod and the other
unshod, to escape into the White Tank
mountains, where officers were unable
to follow the trail.
Burnett was accompanied into court
by Bud Ming, owner of the O X ranch
and former employer Of Burnett.
One of the peculiar twists which |
have accompanied events following
the Staying was a story dealing with
the murder printed in a popular maga
zine, in which the real names of the
were used. Lawyers were
consulted by some of these men to de-
terrnine whether or not such an article
was libelous.

Auto Plates Must Be
Readable, Says Sheriff

Warnings are coming. from the sher-
ifs office to automobile owners that
their license plates, both front and
back must be kept clean so that the
numbers can be easily read.
Many cars, according to Sheriff J.
O. Parsons, have so much mud and
dirt on the plates, that they are al
most undecipherable, and as the state
law requires that they must be kept
clean, the law must be observed in
Coconino county as elsewhere, is the
edict.

National Grand Opera ensemble I'M
der the direction of Cesare Sodero,
at $3.50 tonight, from WEAF, New

work.
"7ansel and GreteP' is a fairy

most boys and girls, both young and
old.
The principal roles are taken as
follows: Hansel, Devora Nadworney,

soprano; Gertrude, Frances Sebel,
soprano, and Peter, Giovanni
Giovonelli baritone.

poSers, will be featured in the
holster Radio Hour of Famous Com
posers, to be broadcast by the Co
lumbia Broadcasting System and
fifteen associated stations headed
by WOR, New York City, at 8 to-
night.
Cadman has become famous for
his study of the music OF the
American Indians, which dates
from 1905. The results Of his early
research work were embodied in
four American Indian songs pub
lished in 1903 Of which From the
Land of the Sky Blue Water" was
made popular by Nordica. He has
continued his work along these lines
until today he is regarded as one OF
the leading authorities on AIneri-
can Indian music. Cadman'S COM
positions have not been confined
entirely to Indian themes, however,
he having written extensively on
other subjects.
Nevsn's work as a composer was
confined almost entirely to songs
and short piano pieces written in a
lyric vein with a feeling for melody,
which might be- considered at times
!. - entimental, but often
Axrressing the finer
.ical Interpretation.
