from a trip to Allison. formerly
known as Vallejo While there yes
terday ne learned that q ranchman
named Eastman had gone from ALI
son with his team and wagon on Mon
day to get a load Of oats down near
the mouth Of the Piedra river. A
ranch woman saw MIN drive into the
river and when In about the middle
she saw the wagon turn over and the
team and wagon were washed down
stream out OF sight. She did not see
the man at all after the wagon turn
ed over. Neighbors were Informed
and a search was started. The team
and front wheels were found about
a quarter OF mile below where the
crossing had been attempted. Tney
had lodged against the bank. The
horses were drowned. Search for
the man was made down to the San
Juan river. but ne could not be found.
The crossing was attempted about
two or three miles from where the
Piedra emptles into the San Juan.
Little is known here Of the unfortu-
nate man. II Is understood that he
was living on his ranch alone. that
he had family somewhere but was
living away from them: that he was
about 80 years old. He was q com

Don't Be Peevish If You Would Be Beautiful
Bad Temper and Constant Nursing of Grievance
Take Away a Womans Good LOOKS

" HE greatest enemy to beauty is
temper. The woman with d bad
temper is by no means the worst
woman in the world. She often
has a very kind heart and a very strict
conscience. Her temper itself some
times lets so many of her evil thoughts
out through her tongue that her nature
is, after all, quite sweet and kind. But,
nevertheless, the fever of temper that
burns within her does its work on her
constitution. 1t shows itself. too. in the
deep wrinkles just above the nose, the
long lines at the side of her mouth and
in the dropping mouth itself, with its
spiteful expression.
The woman who is always nursing
her wrongs, wrongs herself more than
anybody else could have wronged her.
The evil. bitter thoughts within her
shut out the bright ones that Uight
come, and make her bad company. But,
worse still, they have a direct physical
effect upon her system. Nothing can
so ruin ones digestion as flying into a
