The high school football championship of Arizona was safely packed in Coach Robinson's hand bag, when he alighted from the train with his gridiron warriors on the return from Tucson, where Saturday they trounced the Old Pueblo boys 66 to 0.
Tucson kicked off to the Coyotes who were defending the north goal. Phoenix returned the ball to the middle of the field where they lost it on downs. The field was covered with dead bermuda grass and the Phoenix boys, not used to a slippery field were unable to advance through the line. Tucson lost the ball on downs. Phoenix now began to use off tackle bucks and end runs and after four downs Rosser went over for the first touchdown and kicked goal. Tucson kicked off. Gillinan received the ball and ran through the whole Tucson team for the second touchdown. Rosser, from his own thirty yard line repeated Gillinan's performance a few moments later.
Gillinan's Star Play
In the second quarter Gillinan made the prettiest play of the game, receiving the ball from the kickoff on his 85 yard line, running swiftly, dodging man after man on the Tucson team and placed the ball between the goal posts for a touchdown.
Joy, Carr and several other substitutes were put in the game in the third quarter and before the end of the game managed to pile up four more touchdowns.
Of the Coyotes, Rosser, Gillinan, Millage and some others deserve special mention, but the main feature of the playing of the Phoenix team was the splendid team work, the great interference given the player carrying the ball. Frequently, not a Tucson tackler would touch the runner on the Coyote team, on account of the excellent interference.
To Coach Robinson belongs a great deal of credit for the wonderful condition of the team and the record they have made. Just before the Coyotes played the University of Arizona's second team early in the season, Robinson took charge as coach and had hardly learned the boys names when the University beat the Coyotes by a close score. Since then there has been a marvelous development in the team due to the knowledge and efforts of the coach.
The high school was to have played the University second team again next Saturday but the University has asked the Coyotes to call off the game.
The Coyotes are now the undisputed champions of the state, and according to Athletic Director Christenson a game is in prospect with El Paso, to be played in El Paso.
It is announced a game will probably be arranged with the Sacaton Indians for next Saturday and on Thanksgiving Day the Coyotes will play the Phoenix Indian School.

JACK DEMPSEY WILL FIGHT CARPENTIER FOR $500,000 PURSE
(Special to the Tribune)
New York, Nov. 18.—Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight champion pugilist, and Georges Carpentier, heavyweight champion of Europe and light heavyweight champion of the world, have signed an agreement by the terms of which they are bound to meet in the ring between March 1, 1921, and July 4 of the same year in a contest of not more than fifteen rounds nor less than ten rounds.
The promoters, Charles B. Cochran of London, England, and William A. Brady and Tex Rickard of New York, bind themselves to pay $200,000 to Jack Dempsey and $200,000 to Georges Carpentier for their services in the ring, and the triumvirate also agree to name the time and place for the bout sixty days in advance of the contest. The promoters thus have the three principal holidays—St. Patrick's day, Memorial day and July 4—to choose from, and are restricted in the matter of location to the United States, Mexico, Cuba or Canada.
Limiting the rounds to a maximum of fifteen or a minimum of ten is proof positive that the promoters plan to stage the contest in some state where boxing is legalized, with the chances largely favoring New York.
As the agreement had been legally drawn and all its terms endorsed previous to the meeting, there was no debate. The actual ceremony therefore consisted in the promoters, boxers and managers signing their names to the contract. This did not occupy more than half an hour, and was not half so exciting as many a conference to settle a real estate deal. The papers were signed in the ball room of the Hotel Claridge.
It was observed that Carpentier handles a pen with more facility than Dempsey, the American champion employing a right hook in signing his name while the Frenchman performed the operation by feinting gracefully with his left an sending the right over with accuracy and speed.
Cubans Arrive
Just as the meeting was called to order Marcos Gonzalez and Rafael Posso, the Cubans who were said to be ready to take the match off the hands of the present promoters, entered the room and were introduced from the platform. Mr. Gonzalez said a Cuban syndicate was ready to give $700,000 for the match, but he realized they had arrived too late.
It was rumored that Tom O'Rourke was ready to post a big forfeit in support of his $600,000 proposition, but Tex Rickard set at rest all doubt as to who would stage the bout by declaring emphatically that his interest in the contest was not for sale, and Mr. Cochran made the same statement. Cochran added:
"I hope the fighters will exert themselves as hard in the ring as the promoters did in arranging the contest."
Rickard made the announcement that the contest would not be staged on a ball ground or any indoor structure, but that he would build a great arena that would hold the largest crowd that ever attended a pugnistic contest, and that the seats would be sold at prices ranging from $5 to $50.
The articles of agreement comprise 27 sections, covering 15 typewritten pages, and every conceivable situation is so thoroughly provided for that there is apparently no loophole for evasion or misunderstanding.
Both Dempsey and Carpentier are permitted under the terms to engage in boutus previous to their meeting in the ring, with the proviso that Dempsey shall not box in Europe an Carpentier shall not enter a ring contest in America.
BRINGS WHISKEY TO ENLIVEN PARTY AND IS MURDERED
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Whigham, Ga., Nov. 18.—The Rev. Samuel Scott, a Negro preacher of this place, was shot and instantly killed by two unknown Negroes in a free-for-all gun fight last Saturday night. Two other Negroes were severely injured in the fight. The affair occurred at a frolic and dance and was started by the preacher who accused his assailants of stealing three bottles of whiskey that he had brought along to enliven the party.
ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER. PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1920.
G. O. P. WILL HAVE LARGE MAJORITY IN THE NEXT CONGRESS
G. O. P. WILL HAVE LARGE MAJORITY IN THE NEXT CONGRESS
(Special to the Tribune)
New York, Nov. 18.—Senator Warren G. Harding will be elected president of the United States with 404 electoral votes out of a total of 531. Gov. Cox has 127. As only 266 are required for election Harding has a margin of 138, or 11 more than the total count of Cox in the electoral college.
These figures were definitely fixed yesterday by the receipt of further returns from states where there had been the barest possibility of an upset.
The popular vote of Senator Harding continued to grow yesterday. It also became practically certain that the lineup in the United States senate would be 59 republicans to 37 democrats.
Interest yesterday centered in the growing size of the plurality of the republicans in the next house of representatives, the largest ever held by any party in the history of the country.
Latest returns showed that the republicans would have a margin of more than 150 seats in the house. The nearest approach to this was in the fifty-second congress, when the democrats had a lead of 148.
In the districts that were definitely reported the republicans had elected 290 and the Democrats 138, a lead of 152. The socialists had elected one. One is classed as an independent republican, one as a prohibitionist and one as a plain independet.
An regards the remaining three seats there had been no official reports from the Eighth Minnesota, the Fifth Missouri and the Twenty-third New York, where the democrats were still claiming they would eventually win; although Albert B. Rossdale, republican, had a lead of 2,000 over Representative Richard F. McKiniry, democrat. There are six missing districts, claimed to be democratic strongholds. But Rossdale seems a certain winner.
Late returns from Tennessee showed that the race in the Fourth and Eighth districts there was close. In the former, W. F. Clouse, republican, was leading Representative Cordell Hull by fewer than 300. He claims, however, complete, returns will give him at least 1,000. In the Eighth incomplete returns give L. A. Scott, republican, only a slight lead over Gordon Brownell, democrat. With 290 members the republicans will have made a net gain of 58 seats.
N. A. A. C. P. Meeting
A meeting of the local branch, N. A. A. C. P. was held Monday night at the A. M. E. church A representative crowd was present and much business of importance was transacted. Hereafter the association will meet Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at one of the three churches. In this way, it is the belief of many, that more interest can be created in the meetings. Remember to attend the meetings of the N. A. A. C. P. on Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Walter McKinney, president; Mrs. Lynn Ross Carter, secretary.
Musicale A Success
The musical concert given last Friday night at the A. M. E. church by the Come-and-See club proved entirely successful. All numbers on the program were good and they were well rendered. Miss Cora Smith and Miss Helen Brown were managers of the affair and deserve much credit for the success of the entertainment. The sum of $23 was realized and this is the first money to be applied on the fund for the building of the new Tanner chapel. "And a little child shall lead them."
Texas Visitor
Mrs. L. A. Watson of Paris, Texas, arrived in Phoenix several weeks ago and has been staying at the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Childress, $28 East Washington street. So favorably impressed was she with Phoenix and the Salt River valley that she has decided to locate, and last week purchased a little ranch home on the south side near the Henry Davis ranch. She returned to Texas this week to pack up her belongings and bid farewell to all that Texas holds dear to her. We welcome her to this valley and invite others to come.

WHITE MINISTER CAUGHT IN POLICE VICE CRUSADE
WHITE MINISTER CAUGHT IN POLICE VICE CRUSADE
(Special to the Tribune)
Savannah, Ga., Nov. 18.—When the police continued to wage their warfare on vice in this city, a resort occupied by Negro women and noted for harboring white men was raided and in the round-up, Rev. C. B. McDaniel, prominent white evangelist, of Atlanta, Ga., was nabbed while entwined in the arms of one of the dark-skinned vamps. He was hauled into a cell at the city jail and when he appeared before the recorder's court, was fined $100. "Reverend" McDaniel called to his aid a jury of fellow preachers and they are said to have exonerated him of any wrongdoing.
The excuse of the evangelist was that he was conducted to the house by a Negro hackman to whom he had applied for a "quiet" place to "rest" and that he was unacquainted with the sections of the city.
PRESCOTT
By Mrs. Dora Rose. Mrs. Paris Tabron returned home Sunday after having a pleasant visit with friends and attending the state fair. Mrs. Earnest Jordan, Mrs. Bell and Mrs. Jacob Tull returned home Sunday. A number of Prescott people who did not visit Phoenix during the state fair are seriously indisposed. No, they can't help ft, it is human weakness. If you have to sit and listen to the more fortunate ones tell of the good time they had and lovely affairs planned by the Phoenix people for the visitors, you would be sick with envy, too. Miss Hattie Gibson was hotess at luncheon Sunday. Covers were laid for the following: Mr. Maxwell, Mr. Sells, Mr. Murphy, Miss Gibson and Mrs. Rose. After lunch the guests were favored by a solo by Miss Marion Jordan. A delightful evening was spent in pleasant pastimes after which the guests departed, declaring Miss Gibson a model hostess. The boys out at Whipple barracks want to know why the Prescott people don't visit them.

TRIBUNE
COLORED ATTORNEY ARGUES CASE BEFORE I. C. C. FOR WHITES
(Special to the Tribune)
New York, Nov. 18—W. L. Houston, attorney at law of this city, appeared before the Interstate Commerce Commission on last Friday and argued the case for the Order of Railroad Station Agents, an organization of white railroad officials, with members distributed over the entire United States.
Mr. Houston was retained to represent the organization last spring after he had won a signal victory before the commission for the colored railway employees, for whom he is attorney. His preparation and conduct of the case for the railroad station agents was a matter of great satisfaction to the officials of that organization, who selected him to represent them because of his ability as a lawyer.
The case is one of great importance to the membership, as upon the outcome depends the classification of station agents and their right to have their disputes concerning grievances, rules, working conditions, wages or salaries heard by the railroad labor board. It is a notable fact that Mr. Houston is the only colored attorney who has ever appeared and argued a case before the Interstate Commerce Commission. His first case before the commission involved the right of more than one hundred thousand colored railway employees, whose organizations are his clients, and in this case he secured a favorable decision. The case in which he appeared Friday for his white clients has not yet been decided by the commission. Its finding is awaited with great anxiety by the agents and the railroads.
PARISIAN IS NEWEST AND DAINTIEST SHOP FOR THE FASTIDIOUS
What promises to be one of the most exclusive and fashionable shops in the city is the "Parisian," which opened its doors to Phoenix shoppers Monday morning. This shop is located at Nos. 6 and 8 West Adams street, just one door west of the Consolidated ticket office.
The Parisian is all that its name implies, in that it will cater to the younger set with strictly Frenchy and youthful frocks as well as sweaters, hosiery, silk undergarments and a full line of millinery, which is indeed quite chic.
Of course, this shop is going to be an oasis to the younger set, for it is to specialize in youthful garments with nothing in stock over a thirty-eight size. So snappy and youthful are the styles to be carried that the management has dubbed them "Chicken Feathers." Hence the tiny yellow chickens in each display window.
The plans of the interior were prepared by the firm of Lescher & Kibbey, architects, and the work has been speeded along, workmen being on the job night and day, for only two weeks ago the location was occupied by realty firms.
The interior is done in an attractive decorative scheme of ivory, with a profusion of pretty draperies, which lend an air of exclusiveness to the surroundings, all of which is certain to accentuate the beauty of the zippy merchandise. This shop will indeed be welcomed by the younger set of Phoenix who know the difficulty in getting small sizes. And the announcement by the management that exclusive and smart designs are to be shown new each week, because of limited space that the shop affords, is a boon, for it is a treat to have an ever-changing array of "chicken" styles and, too, the management has said that this constant turnover will keep the prices at the lowest ebb.
New Restaurant Opened
Mrs. R. Kendricks, former owner of the Elite Cafe, has opened an eating house at 15 South Fourth street, where she will be pleased to meet all her former customers and friends. The old home style of cooking still prevails with her and all who dine at her restaurant are assured of a generous portion at reasonable prices. Remember the number, 15 South Fourth street.
WILLIS-DEMPSEY BOUT WOULD ATTRACT INTEREST OF FANS
(Special to the Tribune)
New York, Nov. 18.—When Jack Johnson, champion of the world, defended his title successfully against the challenger, James J. Jeffries, at Reno, Nev., July 4, 1910, sport followers of the white race took the defeat of boilermaker Jim so keenly that a nation-wide search was started by leading promoters to unearth a white man who could regain the laurels lost to the black champion.
A division was formed, and was named the white hope brigade, and all eligibles had to be six feet or over and to weigh at least 200 pounds. This inauguration was soon productive of numerous prospects, the most promising of whom were the following: Jim Stewart, Carl Morris, Fireman Jim Flynn, Al Kaufman, the fortunate Luther McCarthy, who was killed by a blow of Arthur Pelky's at Calgary, Alberta, Can.; Al Palzer, Bombardier Wells, Gunboat Smith and Frank Moran. Only two were given the chance to show against Jack. He knocked out Flynn at Los Vegas, N. M., in 1912 (police intervention), when that worthy started to bite Johnson's ear and kick his shins, and easily defeated Moran in 20 rounds at Paris. Carpentier was the referee of that match, and pronounced Jack as invincible shortly afterwards. It's needless to even consider the Williard-Johnson fiasco at Havana. Something was evidently wrong then. The chances are that Harry Wills, if given the chance, will start the ball a rolling again in the white hope brigae. While not quite the equal of Johnson he is fully capable of defeating Dempsey, who had his hands full in the Lester Johnson bout, earlier in his career, if Lester could break three of his ribs, what will Harry do? Of course we must remember that Wills isn't invulnerable and like all men, when hit properly, will go out. Again we know that Dempsey is nearly as great a hitter as Langford was, and Sam stopped Wills twice when Harry was just coming, and he had been in the game fully thirteen years—1914.
The Wills of oay is the nearest approach to Jack Johnson of whom the ring has known no greater. From a spectacular standpoint this match outdoes the Johnson-Jeries fight, as both principals are in the heyday of their career.
PREACHER ARRESTED FOR
STEALING COTTON SEED
Sparta, Ga.—The Rev. G. W. Wynn,
a prominent Negro preacher, was arrested last week and charged with stealing seed cotton from the field of S. N. McGee. He was bound over to the city court which is now in session. The evidence is said to be very strong against him.
Want A Ranch Home?
Any person who wants a ranch home in the Casa Grande valley or Mexico, may receive some valuable information by calling on Mr. H. H. Rice at the De Luxe hotel, 35 South Second street. He is in touch with a man who is ready to lend you every assistance in the way of securing a good home. Don't fail to see Mr. Rice today.—Advt.
Allen Christian Endeavor
The Allen Christian Endeavor league met last Sunday evening, 6:30 o'clock, at the A. M. E. church, and held an interesting meeting. Miss Gertrude Roberts led the meeting and all entered enthusiastically into the discussion. On next Sunday the subject is: "The Thanksgiving Habit," and Miss Marguerite Silvers will be the leader. All Phoenix invited to attend these meetings.
MME. LORENZO COLE DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
Seattle, Wash., Nov. 18.—Lorenzo Cole, pianist, appeared in a farewell recital before a large and appreciative audience at the Press Club auditorium. Miss Cole, whose ability has excited favorable comment, presented a program calculated to tax the powers of an experienced artist.
The Schumann Sonata in G Minor, the Chopin G Minor Ballade and a group of Negro folk songs, transcribed by S. Coleridge Taylor, were among the numbers most enthusiastically received. The pianist leaves shortly on a concert tour of seven months' duration.
5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year
Following is a letter written by H. H. Shelton to Senator Warren Harding prior to the election and the senator's reply. Mr. Shelton is owner of Acre City, Ariz., and for a number of years has been engaged in the real estate business in this city. The letter follows:
Phoenix, Ariz., Oct. 18, 1920.
Senator W. G. Harding,
Marion, Ohio.
Dear sir—We, the people of Arizona, are looking forward to your election with an overwhelming majorit and outside of this fact the thing the now interests us most as an agrivital community seems to be the interest of all American farmers, and that is: "What are we going to go for our produce which has been developed and is still being harvested on a high labor market?"
In my opinion this is far more important to American farmers, the diplomats and their friends, than the League of Nations will ever be. In the last few years farmers have produced what they were led to believe our government needed most, and have been at the mercy of inefficient and costly labor and have come to the place where they don't know what step to take next.
Any degree of consideration given on a base where they will either break even or make a profit, will set the unrest among this class of industry and help formulate a plan to bring about America's readjustment quicker than any other. The farming industry is the most important among men and beast, as the king himself is served from the field.
The farmer should know in some degree what is needed to be produced and what price to expect. In no other way can be keep from guessing, and the farming industry is of too great importance to be left to conjecture.
Could you make a declaration that our government, under your aministration, in the event of your election, will give the farmers an assurance that their security will be taken care of in a satisfactory manner, so as to assure them that they will never have cause to experience again what they are now feeling?
The fact remains now that the farmers who need the finance most are in the worst condition and they are in the majority. Our government could afford to guarantee the long staple cotton farmers 20 per cent profit plus cost of production, which would be 91 cents, and in my opinion, it would at once settle all unrest and give them a chance to begin and plan for future crops according to the demand. This could be done through a single declaration and we could consign to government warehouses.
Our farmers do not understand how Uncle Sam's financiers can have a mortgage on the world and can not redeem a gold dollar at home. There is a mistake somewhere. Help us correct it.
Sincerely yours,
M. H. SHELTON.
Following is Senator Harding's reply:
Marion, O., Oct. 25, 1920.
Mr. M. H. Shelton,
Phoenix, Ariz.
My dear Mr. Shelton—Senator
Harding was very much pleased to
receive your recent letter and to get
your views on the farmers' problems.
The senator is giving this his very
serious consideration, and it is his
earnest hope in the event of his election
that agriculture will progress
steadily and soundly during his administration.
With cordial good wishes, I am
Very truly yours.

We note with interest the move to put a stop to Sunday auto racing so not advocate racing as a proper way to know why, among all the sports Sunday, this particular one was set in baseball, theater parties, hunting and a score of other sports engage the attention every Sunday, and so why single that auto races draw larger crowds materially decrease the attendance that they are no worse or more sad.
If it is intended to stop Sunday sport, on finding no races for Sunday is doomed to disappointment. Men who cannot be influenced by more come to the House of God on Sunday cause them to attend church.

SUNDAY RACING
an interest the movement started by the Ministerial Alliance for Sunday auto racing at the state fair grounds. While we race as a proper diversion for Sunday, we would like among all the sports indulged in by non-churchgoers on particular one was selected as the object of their attack. Parties, hunting and fishing trips, pool games, and sports engage the attention of hundreds of people in this day, and so why single out auto racing? No doubt, it is true to draw larger crowds than many of the other sports, and cause the attendance at the churches, but it appears to us worse or more sacrilegious than the others.
Added to stop Sunday auto racing so that the lovers of this race no races for Sunday, will fill the church pews, someone appointment. Men will not be legislated into the church, who influenced by moral suasion and Christian teaching to cause of God on Sunday, no amount of legislation will ever attend church.
In the remedy for increasing attendance at the churches on the attractiveness of the services and the manner in which night before the eyes of the people. Observe the methods of picture shows. Whenever a circus or other attraction and the managers of the theaters have reason to believeids will be reduced, what do they do? Do they ask the teachers to pass an ordinance prohibiting counter attractions? Change their programs, put on their best, most startling and advertise the fact.
A list of worthy institutions in a community, stand the does not necessarily follow that because they are the most we will attend the services. The Scriptures tell us that no candle and hide it under a bushel. If you want people you are, the good you are doing, and the benefit you can add up your light, let it shine radiantly about you so that may see. In this day and time the light of publicity—adversely method whereby those who "walk in darkness" may be a peculiar thing. In order to get one to do what you want, must first attract his attention; then you must interest becomes interested in you or the proposition you wish to be ready for instruction. These truths we hold to be self-man will need the instruction of one not in authority, unless been engaged and his interest aroused. Study to make the services more attractive, more interesting than worldly with Sunday auto racing, Sunday baseball games and other diversions die for lack of support.

These truths we hold to be self-evident, that no man will heed the instruction of one not in authority, unless his attention has been engaged and his interest aroused. Study to make the church and the services more attractive, more interesting than worldly things, and watch Sunday auto racing, Sunday baseball games and other distasteful Sunday diversions die for lack of support.

duced Attorney Walter E. Watkins, who delivered his first address to a Phoenix audience. Mr. Watkins, in an oratorical, logical and forceful manner, presented many truths and was repeatedly interrupted with aplaeuse. Mr. Watkins, who recently passed the state bar examination and has been admitted to practice in all the courts of this state, is a young man full of "pep" and has a wonderful gift of oratory that should win fame and fortune for him in his chosen profession. He is the only colored attorney in Arizona and has decided to open an office in Phoenix. He is a graduate of Howard university, Washington, D. C., was among the American Expeditionary Forces in France and has traveled extensively in this country. Mr. Watkins is a thorough-going race man and we predict for him a bright future in this great state. He has agreed to deliver a special lecture to the people of Phoenix under the auspices of the Protective league at a meeting to be held the third Monday night in January. The next meeting of the Protective league will be held the first Monday night in December at Douglas school. All invited to attend these meetings.

Smith was the first speaker on the program and in a concise way delivered an appropriate address. Rev. T. J. Sanford was next introduced and made the keynote speech for the occasion. Following the address of Rev. Sanford, remarks were made by Mrs. Clarence Hamilton, Mrs. Chas. Smith, Mrs. I. McPinion, Mrs. Oralee Mimms, Mrs. A. R. Smith, Mrs. J. McCoy, Mrs. A. Slade and others. Altogether, this was a very encouraging meeting and much good should result from it. Refreshments were served by several girls of the third grade, after which all repaired to their homes feeling greatly benefitted by the thoughts that had been inculcated.
A PROCLAMATION 'DESIGNATING THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1920,
AS THANKSGIVING DAY
Three hundred years ago, on a bleak New England shore there gathered a band of Pilgrims to render thanks to the Almighty for the harvest that had been gathered. The day of Thanksgiving thus inaugurated had annual observance within the northeastern American colonies and has had national recognition since 1863. It is based upon the harvest festival common to all peoples, a day selected especially for the offering to Omnipotence of thanks for the natural bounties through which life is sustained. The Puritans gave thanks that their reaping had assured food for the coming winter, and that their lives had been spared in their struggles with the surrounding Indians, in his issuance of the first national Thanksgiving day proclamation, Lincoln was moved by gratitude for a period of success at arms that assured the winning of the war between the states. Today, our nation, two years removed from the victorious ending of the greatest war of history, is moved by thankfulness for mercies through which its independence and its people's rights have been retained. Conditions of reconstruction are gripping the people of Arizona. For extraneous reasons, their products are finding slack demand in a time when high maintenance costs still are known. But, beneath this surface showing, can be found much for which gratitude can be expressed. For the year past our state has enjoyed peace in fullest measure. Industrial disturbance has been unknown, nor has there been loss by epidemic or storm. Mines and farms and factories have been operated without hindrance. Development has been unchecked and faith in the state's future never was stronger or more firmly based. Our people, with serene confidence in the destiny of their nation and in their own abilities, are turning toward accomplishment of their new tasks and are restoring the balance the war had un settled.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, THOMAS E. CAMPBELL, Governor of Arizona, in pursuance of honored custom, and in deference to a proclamation of the President of the United States, do hereby designate Thursday, November twenty-fifth, nineteen hundred twenty, as a day of THANKSGIVING for blessings enjoyed and of prayers to God for a continuance of national liberties, and for the upbuilding of patriotic character among the people. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed.
Done at Phoenix, the capital, this fifteenth day of November, 1820. (Great Seal)

Attest: Governor

boys acted as pall bearers. The junior choir rendered music for the occasion. The church was filled with friends of the mother and sister of the deceased and the floral offerings of the deceased and the floral offerings were many and beautiful. Interment was made in Greenwood cemetery and a large concourse of friends followed the remains to their last resting place. Our sympathy goes out to the mother and sister in this their sad hour.
A sneak thief entered the home of Mrs. Gabbie Bouie, 822 East Jéfferson street, on last Saturday night and succeeded in relieving her roomers of a tidy sum of money. The thief went through the house and took nothing but cash, as he seemed to just where to find it. The young men who lost their week's earnings are a sadder and wiser lot. Since the horse has been stolen the stable is locked tighter than a drum. 'Twas

Mary Hester Passes
Last Saturday morning, November 13th, Mary Hester, the thirteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. M. J. Middox, 910 East Jefferson street, breathed her last. She had been confined to her home for several months suffering with tuberculosis and hope had been held out for her recovery. She died Saturday morning following a severe hemorrhage from which no relief could be obtained. Mary was a member of the A. M. E. church and took an active part in the junior choir, Sunday school, Christian Endeavor ant other auxiliaries. She was an obedient girl, kind, affectionate and well liked by all who knew her. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon, 2 o'clock, from the A. M. E. church, the Rev. T. J. Sanford officiating. All her schoolmates from both the public and high schools attended the
Cruces, N. M., who is serving his seventh year as presiding elder of the Arizona district of the California conference of the C. M. E. church, was in the city last Sunday and held his quarterly meeting at the local C. M. E. church. Rev. Johnson built the C. M. E. church in this city and for six years served as pastor of the charge. Bishop Phillips, who presides over the California conference, recognizes in Rev. Johnson those qualities which make a man great, and in assigning him to this district for the seventh consecutive term, is giving him an opportunity to prove his worth. Rev. Johnson left Tuesday for southern Arizona where he will visit the several churches of his connection in that section.
Rev. E. Ramsey and Mrs. Annie Jones were quietly married last Saturday evening at the bride's home, 121 South Eighth street, the Rev. T. J. Sanford officiating. Both are well known Phoenix people and their many friends will be surprised to learn that such an important event took place without their knowledge. Only the necessary witnesses were present at the ceremony.

Ladies of the S. I. A. club met Monday afternoon with Mrs. P. F. McCutcheon in East Jefferson street and held a very interesting meeting. Several visiting ladies were present and all enjoyed the meeting. Next Monday the club will meet with Mrs. I. F. Silvers, 142. East Jefferson street.
