they could t0 get out of the difficult situation but failing in every way. one
 of the men came up town after help. Naturally his first thought was a liV- eryman with team. He called up Mir. Finch, who by that time was sleeping
 the, sleep of the just and had no thoughts of getting out in the cold to drag an automobile out of the sand and water. He hadn't lost any auto
 mobile and at first was inclined to tell
 the man to go elsewhere after help.
 However. he was finally induced to get up and hitch up a team and by the
 time he got to the stranded machine
 it was after one o'clock. He waded
 around in the sand and water. crossing the stream several times after blanks,
 until three o'clock when he concluded
 that with his light team there was
 little probability of moving the auto if he kept up that line of work forever. The members Of the party were q little inclined to be sore" at Mir. Finch for
 not rescuing them more promptly; they even carried their soreness so
 far that they refused 10 accept of his invitation to ride to town with them ir his rig. They further implied that
 for his trouble he would not even re- ceive their thanks. MT. Finch had
 ideas of his own on that part of the
 question but kept them to himself The party spent the balance of the night at the hotel here and the next morning secured team and started
 toward their machine. By that time,
 however. MT. Finch with a larger team
 than the one he had used during the
 night, had pulled the machine to land.
 A few hours refreshing sleep had put the members of the stranded party in
 q better humOr; they apolOgized for their actions of the night before; set
 tied with MT. Finch for his work and the matter dropped.
 The machine. however. had been somewhat damaged by the experience
 and the better part of yesterday was spent in it's repair.

A GRAIN FIELD FIRE.
Thirty Acres Out of Fifty Destroyed
 Yesterday at Noon.

Yesterday noon, fire destroyed thir- ty acres of grain out of a fifty-Icre field belonging to Ben Pearman, and lying about a mile west of town. How the fire started is still a mystery. A man passing along the road saw the flames and at once notified MT. Pear man, and the other members of a heading crew who were working a iit- tie distance down the road. The en- tire crew at once armed itself with wet sacks and fought the flames for an hour or more before they were extingulshed. Even then, the. fire was only held when a wet ditch with grass growing on it was encountered. The grain was barley just ready for the harvest and would have been cut in a few days. Fortunately MT. Pearman had the field insured with F. A. Windes in the Aetna insurance com pany. and his loss consequently will not be so great.

swAMPED IN THE SAND.
A Midnight Experience With an Auto
 in Salt River.

A party of Phoenix people en route ot Roosevelt in an automobile had rather a trying experience in Salt River about midnight Wednesday night Their trouble was either from carless- ness or a lack of experience in cross ing the river, but which ever it was. it very strongly emphasizes the fact that while there is an exceptionally good ford established at the river now, it is good only when one keeps in the beaten track and does not venture off to one side or the other
 The party left Phoenix sometime in the evening and reached the river about midnight. In crossing they got little out of the road and were soon mired in quicksand. In the establish- ed ford the sand is not at all bad. On either side it is very quick" and even though the machine had the good sized tires of a big touring car it soon sunk until the body of the auto rested on the sand.
 The members of the party did what
