THE PETRIFIED FOREST.
A Short Description of the Wonderland
 Soon to Be National Park

The immense petrfied forest of Ari- zona has in the past few years at tracted considerable attention from geolOgists and men interested in kind red phenomena of nature. It is said by them that there Is no other similar petriiications in the known world.
 There are several thousand acres of this forest scattered over the sand deserts of Northern Arizona in the vicinity of Holbrook. In the last year the railroad company has established a station called Adamana, and from that place the traveller can reach the won derland by six-mile drive, though the greater part of ihe forest is some twelve miles to he south of the station.
 At what is known as the first deposit several sections of land are covered with the fallen trunks of the trees, checked and broken, and up on bluff of clay hundred feet or more from the valley below, is the petrilied tree forming u natural bridge across from one angle of the bluff to another some fifty font in length. The dirt has grad ualiy washed away from beneath its center leaving both ends resting upon sandstone formation. Its trunk at one end may be followed for some dis tance with the eye until it is com petely covered again by the earth. Near the west end. the great log is cracked all the way through only its weight keeping it in place. A dare devil cowboy recently rode his COW pony across the bridge and the weight

did not affect it in the least. It is one of the most perfect and the largest sound log in the forest, being over five feet through at the butt.
 Most visitors are taken to this forest only and do not get to see the larger forests to the south which have in years gone by been uncovered by the floods. The greater part of the wood is badly shattered and in small pieces of dull red color.
 At the second deposit to the south east are found many large trees in better state of preservation having ap- parently been more recently uncovered and exposed to the elements, for they are broken into sections of from five to six feet in length and not so completely shattered as the first deposit. There are several hundred acres in this de- posit, though pieces of petrified wood may be found for distance of two hundred miles east and west, all ap- parently being part of the same forest but not all exposed as are the three de- posits where rushing waters have car red the earth away and left large can yons.
 The third deposit is the largest of them all It is mainly in the bottom of canyon several miles in width: here are thousands upon thousands of the agatized trees laying half buried in the sands exposing untold beauties to the eye of the traveller. Bright pieces are scattered in all directions exhibit ing all the colors of the rainbow to view; pearly crystals, some pink others white and delicate blue gleaming in the sunlight from the hearts of old trees that have laid beneath the earth for years: other broken sections of huge

THE OFFICE ESTABLISHED.
Valentine Now Has an Emergency
Telegraph OffiCe-A Dispatcher
Appointed For the Place.

AS stated in the herald few days
ago, there has been today established
at Valentine and S. G. Marks has been
appointed chief train dispatcher with
Messrs. Hoover and Walker as his as
sistants. This change has been under
consideration for months past and time
only added force to the necessity of re-
lieving the dispatchers on this end OF
the line. Under the present system
the Ell Paso operators will be relieved
OF the duty of governing the move
ments of the trains running on the
Valentine and Del Rio divisions of the
G. Fl. s. A. and will serve as great
benefit % the men stationed at this
poiur.
Chief Train Dispatcher McNeal will
be retained here with Messrs. Connel-
ly. Walker and Cole as his first second
and third assistants. Ali concerned
are perfectly satisfied with the new ar
rangement and believe that it will
work to the great satisfaction OF all.
They are all good men and well
thought of along the liae and it is safe
to say thst they will meet all require
ments.
