Academy, when he could have done
it at an earlier time with better
grace?
Did C. Albert Gray visit DR.. Aber-
crombie Wednesday evening solely
with the intention of talking it over,
or had he some ideas" he wished the
head of Worcester Academy to think
about?
If Mr.. Gray had the interests of the
High School football team at heart,
why did he send messenger to a
Worcester young man who has had ex-
perience as coach Of football teams,
previous to the meeting Of the prin-
cipals and ask him if he would con-
descend to coach the Worcester High
team, provided DR.. Delaney was de-
posed??
In the intense interest of Mr.. Gray
does he feel that he would be salts
field to have the game with Worcester
Academy dropped, or does he not think
of the $3.50 due him by the athletic
association for football goods pur-
chased at a local store?
OF course, these are questions that
only Gray can answer, and no news
paper man can hope to give accurate
or even diplomatic answers to the
above. They seem ike puzzlers. No
body says a word against Mr.. Gray
as an enthusiastic supporter Of High
School athletics, but many seem to be
Of the opinion that enthusiasm has it's
limits, and that limit should be re-
spected.
At the practice of High School eleven
that followed the meeting at Bliss Field
yesterday, James Booth was used at
right and in place Of Harvey Jackson,
who is undoubtedly lost to the team
Jackson became disguised with the
turn of affairs Thursday and decided
to leave school He was the best drop
kicker in the High School squad and a
powerful man at end Cunningham Of
last years eleven may be induced to
come out for the team and replace
Jackson.
The game with Friends School Of
Providence, scheduled for today, has
been called off and. instead. the High
School team viii witness the game be-
tween Boston College and Holy Cross.
Monday there will be practice on Bliss
Field, and it is expected J. D. Delaney
will be prepared to give his decision re-
garding the offer to coach the eleven.

MISS STONE HAS
SENT LETTER IN ENGLISH

Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. s.-Mr. Dickinson,
in his reply to Miss stones letter urged
the brigands to still further reduce their
demands and accept the amount sub
scribed, I'm view Of the determination Of
the government not to contribute toward
the ransom.
It is believed that the brigands will
agree to this as they are now beginning
to feel hard pressed and want money Tor
current expenses such as the bribery Of
officials, peasants and others.
The letter insists that the surrender Of
the prisoners must precede or be stimuli
taneous with the payment, but leaves the
question Of the place open.
A messenger last night brought letter
from Miss Stone written IN English Inc
letter saws she is still well and gives valu-
able information about her captors ans

police will be done so by private teams
and officers in citizen dress.
The order which was posted in the
guardroom at Station one last night
| reads:-
Relative to providing dinners for the
worthy poor of the city of Worcester.
This custom was established by the
police department years ago, and from
a small beginning has grown to one OF
| large proportions.

ceive aid may do so with thanksgiving

bestow their gifts may feel that II is
more blessed to give than TO receive

Intended, and he viii hold the officers

| ing poor furnished by the police Off
GERS, together with those furnished
from other sources, of persons who are
| poor and needy, but who dislike TO
make their wants known to the police.
Il would recommend that private
l.teams be used for delivery, that the
officers who go with them be In citi-
zen dress, that the good work may be
carried out with the least possible dis
play.
"Oficers who travel upon the same
district should compare notes and see
to It that the name of any one party
is not reported twice. 1t Is necessary
that the names of all parties to be sup
piled be sent to the deputy chief OF
police on or before 6 o'clock p. m. Nov.

of the brigands and expecting to seize
communica tons from or to Miss stone
The man was subsequently released. This

a deliberate attempt to Brighten delegates
who might visit Mr.. Dickinson, and thus

The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

Sunset Crater, so called because while it's slopes are composed of black cinders like the hills which surround it, toward the top the color changes to a reddish brown,
 with croppings here and there of ayellowish sulphurous formation, giving it the appearance of lying in shadow, except it's summit which forever seems to rest in sunshine. A carriage can be driven to the base of the Crater, and while a climb up it's sides is a sOmewhatdifficu piece of work, it we'll repays the effort by the view afforded from the top. To the south and southwest stretch es the mighty forest, with knolls and hills rising here and there upon it's bosom, while far away appear the outlines of the north ern mountains of the MOgOllon group. The immediate fore ground in every direction, save to the west, is crowded with cin- der hills rising black, forbidding and desolate, many of them with
The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

out a sign of life upon them, oth- CTS bearing here and there little ''islands" of trees or single pines which manage in some way to wrest a. precarious living from the scanty soil. Westward the splendid San Franciscos stand out seeming almost within hailing distance in the clear, dry atmos- phere, with O'Leary Peak lying almost up against the Crater. At the foot of the Crater on this side. too, lie the tangled masses of lava which may once have poured molten down it's side, now a wild, barren tangle of rugged
 ridges and scanned and scared gorges. While across the gaping mouth of the Crater's yawning bowl, looking to the northeast, there is spread out for scores of miles until it blends impercepti- bly, into the horizon, the wonder ful, mysterious Painted Desert. No geography desert this of mo- notonus grays and browns. It's
The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

though it had been built in rather than sloping away from them. The cliffs to the west rise sheer from it, and are nearly perpen- dicular; and the opposite wall is nearly as abrupt in it's termina- tion the greater part of it's length.
 The bench of rock supporting and forming the great archway is irregular in formation, com posed mainly of limestone, which crumbles by action of the wealth CT, and is constantly scaling off and dropping, thus widening the under part of the bridge.
 The bridge was located a num- Der of years ago as a homestead, long before it's value was appre- ciated as natural curiosity, and from it's springs and fertile soil, it's owner has made it small wonderland of productiveness that hangs suspended in the air; thing for curious and reflective minds to ponder OCT.
 Sunset Crater and Lava Beds.
 Returning from the Natural
The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

Bridge an interesting trip close at hand may be made to Sunset Crater and the Lava and Cinder beds surrounding. The entire plateau is more or less volcanic in origin and character, but is par excellence the locality for study of volcanic phenomena. The Cave Dwelling Hills lie just at the edge of these Cinder beds, and looking out to the east and northeast from their summits, broad stretches of black cinders.
 with mum berless smooth, round ed hills of the same hue, are dis covered. In some portions the pines grow up through the cin- ders and relieve the monOtony and barrenneSs, but again the black expanse is spread out for miles, unbrOken by single shrub or tree, or even by a blade of grass. It is, inded, scene of desolation, and yet it is not en- tirely lacking in elements of beauty. Yonder, for instance, is
The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

vines, trees and water abound all on top of this most curious bridge.
 The bridge is, in reality, a solid formation of rock several hun dred feet long, north to south, and about half as wide from east to west, with both ends apparently broken off abruptly. A swift running brook has worn it's way through the rock from end to end some 200 feet below, and comes gurgling out over the rocks at the lowerend as pure as crys- tai. The rocks from above have been washed by floods and crack ed by the elements until space has been opened over 100 feet high beneath the bridge. High up under the giant arches of the bridge are mammoth caves. as yet only partially explored, where bats and their kind have made their home for years.
 Beneath the bridge is a large pool of water where leaves, pieces of wood and other objects
The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

cliffs and rocks and sands cover the widest range of tint, from fairest white to deepest orange; yet it is never seen twice alike, nor does it remain long the same. Beneath the blaze of the after noon sun, tempered here and there, it may be, with feecy clouds, it's colors shift and shade and blend in ever-changing and unspeakable beauty. At times, a storm may be seen to sweep over it's expanse, and then the added beauty of the rainbow hues are mingled with the coloring of the desert itself. But however seen, it is sight which must re- main forever stamped indelibly upon the memory. The majestic peaks rising on the left, snow clad, it may be, or with light clouds shrouding their summits; the green, verdure- clad mesas between, with the delightful con- trast of the hue of the pines and the lighter color of the under growth; O'Leary, with it's wealth
The Coconino sun., 1901-12-28

Another peculiar thing noted about the bridge is, that numer- ous springs break out upon the top of it, though it hangs in mid air, as it were, between the two canyon walls. All the water used for irrigating the pretty and productive little farm, comes from these springs in never-fail- ing quantities.
 Fruit trees grow and flourish here, bearing fruit year after year; vegetables, grapes, and other products grow abundantly upon the fertile soil washed down upon the great ledges of rock.
 How this great bridge was formed is mystery. The ends do not have the appearance of being broken off, nor is there any evidence from the Side walls of the canyon that the bridge has ever extended beyond it's present abrupt ending. It hangs as a part of the canyon walls as
