Passes--1777-1927

Where was the American flag first
raised over the headquarters Of the
commander-in-chief of the American
army?

continental army in May, 1877, and
there the army remained until July.
On June ID the Continental Con-
gress adopted the stars and stripes.
Two weeks later Washington
thwarted an attempt Of General Howe
to advance on Philadelphia by taking
position on the im~~~ liable frontage
of the Watching Hills. The maneuver
compelled the British army to with
draw from New Jersey
On June Ia the esquicentennial Of
the adoption of the American flag viii

Middlebrook. The state of New Jer-
sey and the national government will

LARGE LIQUOR STILL
SEIZED BY SHERIFF'S
men AT MORMON LAKE

What is claimed to be one of the
largest liquor stills captured in d net
spread by the sheriff's office was
confiscated by officers Tuesday night
on the ranch occupied by w. Z. Braley
and w. D. Bates. The ranch is leased
to the two men by Ed Lockwood and
lies at the foot of Mormon mountain
near the lake.
When Under-sheriff d. L. Nc
Kinney, Deputy Sheriff Art Vande-
vier and Constable B. c. Black
swooped down upon the location Of
the still they were forced to cross q
large, open plowed field. Braley, it
is said, saw them coming and hurried
" dismantled the apparatus, which
was setting alongside a small log
shed in which 200-gallons of mash
were later found. Braley, according
to the officers, picked up most of the
still and started running toward the
woods before they could get to him.
On reaching a light growth of timber,
Braley, the officers say, flung part Of
his load into a ditch and carried the
rest until he was intercepted by
officers. The boiler of the still was
still hot when the sheriff's men got it.
The balance of the apparatus was
found after a search,with the ex-
ception Of the top Of the boiler.
The outfit is said to be one of the
largest taken by the sheriff's office
this year, being approximately 100
gallons capacity. Two gasoline burn
ers were used for heating.
Besides the still and equipment,
18 gallons of liquor, five cases Of
beer and the apparatus for bottling
it were brought in by the raiders.
Two hundred gallons Of mash were
destroyed on the spot.
Braley was brought to county jail
Tuesday night and Bates, his alleged
partner, was locked up Wednesday
when the county attorneys office inn
plicated him in the manufacture OF
LIQUOR along with Braley. Both men
we're given a hearing in superior
court before Judge J. E. Jones
Wednesday afternoon and pleaded not
guilty to the charge of manufacturing
liquor. They were released under
$500 bond each.

Closing Exercises At
st. AnthOpy's School

The many Flagstaff people who
witnessed the closing exercises at st.
Anthony's school Friday night were
delightfully."- surprised at the unique
and interesting program.
The opening chorus, MY Own
Town." was sung sweetly by children
of the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth
grades. Then followed conferring of
diplomas on Martin Moran, John Rod
riguez, Olive Carron, Rose Conrard,
and Margaret Verkamp.
This was. followed by the awarding
of Palmer certificates for penmanship
to Martin Moran, John Rodriguez,
Olive Carron, Rose Conrard, Elizabeth
Sanford, Florence Sauer and Mar
garet Verkamp. Each received his or
her diploma or certificate amid so
much applause it was difficult to tell
which were the favorites, if there
were any.
An acrobatic stunt called pyramid
building" was one of the features.
The team consisted Of the following
acrobats John Rodriguez, Martin
Moran, Paul Sauer, Howard Yost, Ed
ward Moran, Michael Lindemann,
Jack Verkamp, Ned Britt and Joseph
Fonseca. The manner in which these
young men performed was a credit to
the school and to the Sisters who
trained them. They displayed strength,
agility and neatness in makeup of
white uniforms. This team must
have gone through a period of intense
training to have performed as it did.
Then followed play in three acts,
"Billy's Aunt Jane" Each young
actor and actress knew the lines and
seemed to feel very much at ease.
The critic failed to notice single
sign of stage fright. While the scenes
were being shifted between each act,
the school orchestra, all pupils, en-
tertained the audience. The follow
ing took part in the MAY: Edward
Moran, Martin Moran, Michael Linde-
mann, Howard Yost, Paul Sauer, Tom
Sanford, John Britt, John Rodriguez,
Elizabeth Sanford, Margaret Nichols,
Minnie Michelbach, Rose Conrard,
Olive Carron, Florence Sauer and
Margaret Verkamp.
The exercises were thoroughly en-
joyed by the proud parents and their
friends, who packed the hall to ca
pacity, and all went home with a feel
ing Of gratitude toward the Sisters,
who had worked untiringly for weeks
to make the program a success, and a
feeling of pride in the pupils.

constructed in Yuma.

MANY FROM FLAGSTAFF
WITNESS SPUDDING In
OF SUNSHINE OIL WELL

A large number of Flagstaff peo-
pie went to Sunshine Sunday to wit
ness the spudding-in of Sunshine well
No. / of the Arizona Sunshine Oil
company, As miles east of this city
near the Sunshine railroad station.
Phe starting hole was made with a
151a inch bit and this size drill will
be used to the greatest depth possible
when the bore will be reduced to 10
inches. It is hoped by those in charge
that the well can be carried to COM
pletion with a 10-inch bore.
Yesterday afternoon it was re-
ported from the location that the well
was down to the 250 foot level.
According to geological estimates
and showing of logs from water wells
in the vicinity of the Sunshine well,
the drillers expect to penetrate about
200 feet in lime before Coconino sand
stone is reached, the sandstone con-
tinuing to depth of from 900 to 1000
feet. After that it will be necessary
to penetrate about 40 to 80 feet of
hardwater lime, which will be slow
and difficult work After that lime
hermit shale is expected to be encoun-
tered and may be all the way from
250 to 500 feet in thickness. 1t is in
this shale that traces of oil are ex-
pected to be found. The real oil bear
ing sands, the goal the drillers are look
ing forward to, will probably be found
at a depth of $500 feet, they say.
if it is necessary to drill a
deeper hole, the present rig is capable
of going down to 5000 feet without
the addition of any equipment.
Drilling of the well to the depth
where oil is expected to be found will
not take over 80 days, those connected
with the company believe.

of the Metropolitan Police Depart
ment
The conference was called by Capt.
Whitehurst in view Of complaints by
Mr.. Lanham that the work of his de-
pertinent in spraying the trees has
been handicapped seriously by parked
automobiles. Mr.. Lanham said that
before machines became SO numerous
and cluttered up the streets, his de-
partment could spray 1000 trees
day, but the present record approxi-
mates only 500 a day.
Capt Whitehurst believes that pro-
hibitions against parking on the
streets where the tres-spraying ma
chimes are in operation will not only
facilitate the campaign to rid the
trees Of caterpillars. but will prevent
complaints which have been coming
to the District Building frequently
from motorists against the dirtying of
their cars by arsenate of lead. the
fluid used in the spraying.
The closing of the streets to park
ing for a temporary period, Capt.
sWhitehurst believes, will not cause
any great Inconvenience to motorists,
as a tree-spraying machine can spray
all Of the trees in one block within
an hour.

Organize Open Door"
 For WOmen's Equality

London. June - The "Open Door" an organization seeking equality in industry and the profess sions between men and women as we'll as equal franchise, has been founded by Mrs. Elizabeth Abbott, British suffragist. who plans to de- velop it into an international move ment.
 Many are alarmed at the tend ency to legislate with a view to i'm proving the lot of women workers, " Mrs. Abbott says. But the imposi- ton of special legislative restric- tions on women leaving men free to make and vary their conditions opens the way to grave abuse"
 Many eminent men are membe rs of the Open Door," Lord Balfour, of Burghley, acts as treasurer.
 Mrs. Abbott is secretary and edi- tor of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance.
