WHEN TWO MAKE ONE.
The Twins. the Confident Mother and

The tall, thin woman handed out 8
cents for herself and two youngsters.
Three cents more, please" reminded
the conductor
They are twins" she explained,
land only equal to one child"
The conductor scratched his head
and tried TO remember his instructions
Evidently be recollected nothing gov.
erning twins; but, being something Of
philosopher, he pondered and said:
Twins are cut of the ordinary, there
fore singular. Perhaps you're right,
and yet you spoke of the twins as
they. That's plural" and he gazed
around trlumphantly.
The fat man nodded. He was bach
elor and detested children.
NO" spoke up the comical man; "she
is right. They have only Que birthday
between them. If they elualed two
children, they would have two birth
days"
Il guess that's So" acquiesced the
conductor. Anyway I'll look it up"
''They take up two seats" growled
| the fat man.
The conductor paused and forgot to
! hand back cents change. Say" at

mother pertly, failing to see the Delvet

Huh! Boy and girl Ell? Well I'll
have to have another fare. You can
figure on boy twins equaling one boy,
but half boy and half girl don't add

She paid.

INDIAN TURKEY FEASTS.
Great Birds which at the C1bique Table
Are LONG Drawn Out.

PHHNIx, Ariz., Dec. is.-If all the wild
turkeys in the Mogollon Mountains from
Turkey Creek to the Mexico Line could be
killed or trapped there would be Christmas
dinner material for half the families OF the
nation. They are big birds, too.
When the turkey season opened In the
middle OF October Ed Bush. q Cbique Apache
half breed, brought to the military. post at
San Carlos a gobbler which weighed thirty
four pounds. Three weeks later. when the
turkeys had fattened on the beech nuts OF
the forest and the grain fields OF the noun
tain ranches, a party Of officers from the
fort on a three days hunt up White Noun
tain Creek killed eighty-one turkeys, aver
aging nineteen pounds each.
Even then the turkeys were, not IN thelr
prime. They will be at their best weight
about the first Of the year, when the C1bique
braves will hold their great annual hunt ana
will feast for two weeks on the result,
To the frugal housewife who makes her
Christmas turkey last over three days the
Cbique method OF cooking turkeys would
be a revelation In economy. The Cbique Is
probably the widest and most exclusive
Of all the Apache races and In the unex-
plored Businesses OF the great mountains
| of the Mogollon and White ranges he has
| held aloof from white companionship longer
han any other American Indian.
Not until two years ago when John Dacey,
the chief OF the tribe, was killed in a quarrel
with a deputy sheriff, did the Gbiques
permit a white man to go on their hunts
or TO attend their feasts. Since then they
| have accepted the newcomer as a necessary
evil, and last year they invited a number
| Of officers from Fort Apache. together with
several civilians, TO accompany the IN.
Nearly seventy bucks, with the seven or
eight whites. killed more than one hundred
birds In the hunt Of two days. In the dense
nd nearly ~impenetrable scrub oak OF the
mountain sides the turkeys were extremely
difficult 20 find.
The White guests soon wearted OF the tire
some work OF crawling and writhing through
the brush, and most Of them awaited al
the camp the return Of the red hunters
Not a bird was touched in camp until al
the hunters were In. and then the squaws
prepared the feast.
That night and all next day the gorg.
ing lasted. The following day Il continued
and then hash was made OF the remains
This diet served another day, and then the
last OF the white party left the village.
Three days later one Of the white mer
CHANGED again to visit the village. dc
found the whole population absorbing tur'
key soup, while the chief declared that thu
bones would serve food purposes for thre'
more days.
Last week a party from Globe shot mint
turkeys near Turkey Creek. three OF tn
birds weighing over twenty-five pound
and one tipping the scales at ~forty-tw,
pounds, the largest ever known to be killed
although the Apache guide declared h
had shot turkeys weighing fifty pounds

Ae astronomers are preparing to
photograph what Leonides appear in
the heavens this fall. Last wear at this
