could find no ledge or projection to stop his swift destruction.
 Major Powell finally emerged from the canyon minus two boats and four men. His narrative of his escapes and struggles pictures one of the most desperate under takings ever assayed by man. The place seems to have a fascination for many beholders like that of Niagara Falls, which tempts per sons of peculiar temperaments to rush over the brink with the green waters. Several lives have been lost in the endeavor to emulate Major Powell's feat, but not one attempt has resulted successfully. Some of his party were crazed by their fearful struggles and the awe some sights, while others were rem dered physical wrecks by their des- perate and sustained efforts.

'The Martinez Herald publishes quite romantic story about Dick Wick Hall. Briefly told. his name is not Dick, but De Forest Hall. About eight years ago he married a young lady in Pittsburg, Pa., the daughter of wealthy banker. Af- ter only a few days of married life the brides father compelled her to leave her young spouse and he came west While submitting to the separation the young wife re- fused to get divorce and remained true to her banished husband. Her father dying recently she inherited his estate, and immediately set on foot a search for her husband. be ing rewarded for her search last week by finding him in Phoenix, where she presented him to their 7-year-old daughter, who was born after his departure. To have a wife and child restored to a man after a separation of eight years and to have them accompanied by a for tune is streak of good luck not often accorded young man in Arizona"

 Six big bicycle races are to be pulled off one each day during the coming territorial fair in Albu- querque in October. Heavy purses have been offered by the fair asso- citation for these events, and this, with the stakes offered by several bicycle manufacturers, will make the meeting an important one for southwestern wheelmen. There has been decided revival in this sport all over the United States during the past few months and bicycle racing promises to come back into its old time popularity.

It is said that Santa Fe engineers have made | survey through Cro- zier canyon, north of the line of road, recently washed out, and that it will be built at once. The road from Truxton to Crozier runs through box canyon. and it will be found impossible to keep the track from being washed out by torrential summer floods. In the Crozier canyon it will be possible to keep out of the wash by build ing along the lower rim of the can- yon. The new work will proba bly, require several months to com plete.-Mohave Miner.

When an editor makes a mistake in his. paper all the world sees it and calls him a liar. When a pri- vate citizen makes a mistake, mo- body knows it except a few friends, and they come around and ask the editor to keep it out of the paper. When the private citizen dies, the editor is asked to write up all his good qualities. and leave out the bad. When the editor dies, the private citizen says, "Now that old liar will get his deserts"

To the geologist the canyon offers an ever increasing and endless field for study. Its mysteries are many, and within its walls it contains de- posits that belong to almost every known geological age.
 To the sightseer and lover of the tremendous and fearful in nature, there is nothing in the world that has equal claim to notice, for un- doubtedly it is the most wondrous and gorgeous scenic field in the world.
 The government will endeavor to spread a knowledge of this great reserve in order to tempt travel to it, for no words, or pictures, or com parison are vivid enough to convey even slight suggestions of it's mar vels. Obstacles in the way of reach ing the rim of the canyon will be removed as rapidly as possible, the first step being a grant to the Santa Fe railroad to build line to the edge of the rim, the terminus of the railroad being Bright Angel trail.
 A great hotel has been erected at Bright Angel trail, and visitors to the canyon at this point need not, as heretofore, take hurried walk along the rim, casting frightened glances into the abyss and hurry away to catch the returning stage or suffer the inconvenience of lying on the ground over night The name Bright Angel Trail" is ap- propriate and suggestive, for with out wings the journey into those fearful depths could never be made. It sickens most beholders even to think of trying the descent, looking into the tremendous gorges, to say nothing of attempting to find foothold on their precipitous sides.
 A few adventurous spirits have tried to go through the canyon by boat, but only Major J. w. Powell and his daring party of adventurers lived to tell their experiences. For miles the river slips between walls of naked rock worn smooth to their tops by countless years of warfare with the elements. The walls sweep down to the waters edge, and a swimmer in those flashing currents

Had three chances and accepted them all in left field. We had three chances, too. Somehow we stopped two and got them over to Burns in time. Burns must have been the name of our third chance from the way our fingers felt after it had gone by. We weren't able to set type for three days because of it.
 Sayl Laying all jokes aside, the kids with a little boosting and coaching and change or two, can put up good game, and they ought to win tomorrow.
