Three persons injured and nearly 100
others panc-stricken is a result of an
accident which occurred on Echo noun
tain shortly before noon yesterday.
That someone was not killed Is re-
garded as little short of a miracle, for
in the rush of throng of Woodmen to
board one of the moving cars on the
Alpine tavern electric line the people
were crowded in between the tracks and
stone wall, a distance of six feet
apart.
While they were pushing and showing
madly to keep out of the way of the
oncomng car Mrs. William owen Nor
ton, wife of the recent Democratic cam
didate for congress in this district, and
c. V. Cooper, head banker of the Wood
men of the World, narrowly escaped
death. Mrs. Cooper was rescued just
in time to save her from fall which
might have resulted seriously, and w. J.
Whitlock, a delegate to the Woodmen's
convention in Los Angeles, sustained a
painful bruise on one of his ankles.
Mrs Morton was saved from death by
Mr.. Cooper, who pulled her from harms

Victims Brought Here

The victims of the accident were
taken to Alpine tavern, where their in

they were brought to Los Angeles, Mrs.
Morton being taken to her home ana
the others to their respective hotels.
There is a substation at Echo noun
tain where the incline railway cars of
the Mount Lowe line meet the Alpine
tavern electric cars. A stone wall
several feet in height runs along the
side of the mountain and there is a 15-
foot trail on the outside Of the wall.
This was built to safeguard pedestrians.

About 100 persons, mostly Woodmen
and their families who had gone to
Mount Lowe for days outing, were
waiting in the six-foot path between
the wall and the tracks of the electric
road for the Alpine tavern cars. AS
these cars only accommodate about
thirty persons each there was, of course
a rush when one approached.

New Hotel, Peach Dance.

w. w. Bass was in the city on Wednesday from the Canyon on a short business trip. He informed us that his new hotel at Bass sta- ton on the Canyon road, five miles this side of Bright Angel, is now practically complete. The main building is 40 feet long and I6 feet in width, two stories high. Shortly an "L" will be added, I6x28 feet, which will give total of twelve rooms in addition to a well equipped kitchen.
 MT. Bass says that the Peach" dance and accompanying festivities of the Supai Indians have been in progress at the reservation this week. The ceremonies, which be- gan Monday and continued until Thursday, are the first that have been held since the death of the old chieftain. Beside the members of their own tribe there were a large number of Navajos and Wallapais present, and considera- ble bartering and trading has been indulged in.-Williams News.

Flagstaff seems to be an excel lent field for the life insurance agent. There are several local agents here, and it would seem that they would naturally do the bulk of the business, but the town has at all times a number of agents from outside places, and all claim that there is plenty of business here for them.

The reason for this Is plain. Blizzard
fought the Dawson-White combination
harder than did any other republican, and
while he was silent at election time his 10y
atty on that occasion has never been ques-

administrations legislative schemes at

The investigation was to have been thrash

Blizzard refused to testify, being successful
in avoiding appearance by habeas corpus
