The closing chapter of the
mysterious tragedy of George
W. McComber the hermit of the
ManzanO Mountains took place
today when the few meager eff

sold at auction by the sheriff of
Bernalillo County. There was
little of value in the cabin of the
dead man. 1t was apparent that
it was not for greed that he was
murdered, but what led to the
foul killing Of the old man, and
who his murderers are has puzz-
led everyone interested since he
was found missing from his
ranch the latter part of last May.

The proposed ditch having

The proposed ditch having
for it's object the Strengthening
OF the Boyer river between Lo-
gan and Missouri Valley will
no doubt be constructed. The
owners of the land affected
have held a meeting and the
scheme is taking form. 1t is
proposed to have the ditch par
allel to the Northwestern rail
way and it will cut out thirty
five miles of the river. Pro-
pcrty owners whose land is SUBJ
Ject to overflow should continue
the ditch to Dow City. Thous-
ands of acres of the richest
land in the richest state in the
union would be reclaimed and
whore marsh grass and rushes
now hold undisputed sway,
large fields of waving corn and
grain would soon transform the
present dismal scene to one of
productiveness and wealth. The
time is not far distant when
such an improvement will be
made. Every acre of Boyer
Valley land that is reasonably
free from overflow is worth
from S75 to 1925 and the own
ers of the many miles of Boyer
river are realizing that some
thing should be done. Dunlap

Don't Worry.

This is easier said than done,
yet it may be some help to con-
slider the matter. If the cause
is something over which you
have no control it is obvious
that worrying will not help the
matter in the least. On the
other hand, if within your con-
troll you have only to act.
When you have a cold and fear
an attack of pneumonia, buy a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and use it judiciously
and all cause for worry las to
the outcome will quickly disap-
pear. There is no danger of
pneumonia when it is used.

In Memory.

In Memory.
A form we love from our home we miss
A voice we have heard is stilled;
And Earl has gone to dwell with Chris
Far away on Eternal hills.
The beautiful spirit took its flight
From this world of grief and pain,
We saw not the hand that bore hin
away
And our loss is dear Esrl's gain.
While our hearts are lonely here
And we walk life's weary road,
A loved ones hand inside the gate
Is reckoning US up to God.
Today he stands in garments white,
Sweet songs he now will sing;
And while eternal ages roll
The praises Of his King.
