Dime ana half-dlme novel WIFI
ing may not be considered very dig
nified work by literary people gener-
al, but it has come to be a good
source of income to me,' said a self
possessed and energetic young news
paper woman the other day. "Be-
fore / took up that style of writing
/ tried hard to obtain recognition as
an author of magazine stories, but
without any success whatever. Qhen
a friend suggested that | try sensa-
tional boys literature. | Took her
advice, wrote such a story and sent
it off. Tt was accepted at once, and
from that day / have been a writer of
hashy literature. | make a good
thing out of it, too, for besides my
newspaper and other work, I turn
out on an average six novels every
month, for which / receive about
twenty-five dollars eaeh,' she con-
tinued.
"These cheap stories are invaria-
bly, written under pressure and with
little chance for revision or correc-
ton. Occasionally a mistake in
grammar appears in the finished pro-
duct, sentence may be badly con-
structed or a phrase may be wrongly
injected, but on the whole the story,
when turned over to the published,
is complete in its way, and compares
favorably as a literary production
with much that is printed in the sec
ond-class story papers. From the
time dime novels first made their APP
pearance up to the present day, they
have been condemned by parents and
teachers as unfit reading matter to
place in the hands Of the young, and
the writer's of such literature are
looked upon with disfavor-when
they are known. But such stories,
while they may deal with people and
situations that are improbable, never
touch upon the impossible, and are
absolutely free from vulgarity and
impuuity.
"The tales may have no founda-
ton i'll truth, but-they must be made
up of incidents and events altogether
within the realm of possibility, else
they will be rejected by the publish
ers. Events that go to make up the
narrative may be as improbable as
the writer cares to make them. IF
the detective in the story Suddenly
appears in the midst of the gang of
villains he has been following for
days, as they are gathered in some
secret stronghold, the writer must de-
scribe infinitely how he managed to
reach the spot; if some aerial con-
trivance is set afloat, the reader must
, have an idea of how it is sustained
above the earth, and what forms its
motive power; if in few hours the
| hero of a story covers on horseback
900 miles of rough, impossible trail
the reader wants to know whether
rider passed through a secret, under
ground shortcut, or used relays OF
4
fast horses, or he will not be satisfied
with the stotry. Make the event as
improbable as you like-the more i'm
probable the better-but stick to the
possible.
"How do we get ideas for stories
Why, with our eyes and ears open we
can find them every day and every
where lin the street, in the theatres
but principally IL, the newspapers
/ An event of unusual Importance oc
eurs; brutal crime is committed, /;
great diamond robbery takes place
and there is plot which, when work
ed out, forms the nucleus aroun
! which the tale is built Dime move

STALLION OF 1913.
better have had to race for the ordinary
purse, as have the PAGERS IN the 2:0T
list, while green and slow record steeds
have had unlimited opportunities to
race for $1,000 and $10a00 prizes.
A $4,000 purse for a 2;o5 or a zoe
pace all the way down the line would
furnish q series of turf battles the
like of which has never been seen and
which would fill every grand stand on
the circuit. The fast trotters should
be looked after as well. There are now
enough of these fast record horses to
make rich early closing events for
them as profitable for the association
from an entrance money point Of view
as those of the slower classes.
New England will be very prominent
on the turf this year. and it is not I'M
reasonable to expect a better showing
than ever. Its greatest strength will
come from the stable Lon Mcdonald
will race for Ralph Williams In Glen
wood NJ, 2:0IA, Mr.. Williams had the
fastest racing trotting stallion of 1905,
and in the natural order of things he
y
He is young, sound and has demon
strated that he can beat 2:06, so that
he will have to show only a slight i'm
provement to stand only second to
Cresceus as a campaigning record
holder
There are a couple of green PAGERS
in the east who will get their share of
the change, Laura Bellini and Hal Di-
rect. The mare has shown mile in
2:04, and the stallion has been in 2:0914.
The picking in the pacing stakes this
year will be mighty tough, for there
are at least four green ones besides
Laura and Hal who have the Indian
/ sign of 2.05 tackled to them.
The green trotters OF 1906 will be q
| pretty poor lot if they do not show up
better than those of last year. A dozen
have shown better than 2:11, and from
then sloald come one which will be a
really high class performer.

STEPHENS DISCOVERY.

AT last we are to know whether
our government is really our own or
not. Lincoln Steffens, of graft dis
closing fame, is now in Washington
investigating this important ques-
ton Mr.. Steffens's first discovery
as set forth in The Indianapolis
News last Saturday evening, is that
the Presidents boss is Theodore
Roosevelt. This disclosure is not sur
prisipg but it will be surprising when
the Senate S turn comes TO be in
vestigated if very many Of that au-
gust body are found to be their own

An Eye-Opener For Anti-Jointists.

"Figures can't lie' is a saying as
old as the hills. 1t develops that
Arizonans pay ninety-five cents taxes
on the 500 while the New Mexicans
pay S1.55. In commenting on the
interesting fact the Arizona Repub-
lican said.
The joint statehood orators ridi-
cule the continental Divide" the
barrier which separates Arizona
from New Mexico and assures us
that it is wholly imaginary. We may
admit that it is not insurmountable.
We may even concede that it may
be crossed in comparative comfort
in places. But there is something
else between Arizona and New
Mexico more painfully altitudinous
than the Continental Divide and it
is not imaginary but on record.
That is the difference between the
tax rates of the two territories.
Does any Arizona taxpayer feel like
crawling laboriously from 95 rate
of this territory to the S1.55 rate of
New Mexico? Or is there a sober
minded taxpayer in Arizona who
wants to assist in leveling the tax
rates of the two territories?

A MODERN AJAX
Boy Receivers From Lightning
Stroke. Four Hours Unc OnSciOuS.

Lightning never played stranger
freak than on Sunday last when Ro-
land Jones, the ten-year-old son of
Bud Jones, was struck down by a
bolt of the electric fluid, which ira
versed his body from the crown of
his head to the sole of his foot, killed
the horse on which he rode, and yet
resulted in no more serious conse-
quences to him than a few slight
burns and period of Inconsistencies
lasting four hours.
Roland was riding after cattle at
the time, in company with Charles
Cloud and his son Frank, on the old
Nugget road. six miles north of
Globe, when they were overtaken by
storm. The bolt of lightning struck
young Jones on the left side of the
head tearing the hat to tatters, ran
down to the left shoulder, thence
down and across the back to the
right hip where the bolt divided, one
fork continuing down the boys right
leg and tearing the heel off his shoe,
the other passing through the saddle
and into the back of the horse, in
stantly killing the animal.
The Clouds, father AID son, immed-
lately started for the Odle ranch,
several miles distant, to procure as
sistance, and returning an hour and
half later they found young Jones
lying where he had fallen, still un-
conscious. The boy was removed to
his home, and after various measures
had been resorted to in vain to re-
vive him and hope was almost aban-
doned, he regained consciousness and
his recovery was soon complete. The
boys escape from instant death was
little short of miraculous.

GOOD COAL FOUND.
Large Bodies Of Good Coal Found and
Located by ThOs. Cunningham in
Navajo County.

1t will be remembered that the
Guardian published several weeks
ago that a company had been formed
in Stafford and had sent Thos. Cum
ningham and Mr.. O'Neil into the
Mogollon mountains to prospect for
coal, known to exist in that county.
Last week letter was received
from Mr.. Cunningham announcing
that numerous large groupings of
coal had been discovered and that he
was busily engaged in making loca-
tions.
Another letter was received from
Mr.. Cunningham, ACCOMPANIED by d
map of his locations. The letter
of the coal to blacksmiths who pro-
nounced it a frst-class article. He
said the groupings were large and
numerous and that at the time of
writing he had gone into one ledge
eight feet and had not cut through it.
On the same train with the letter
came a sack of coal by express.
This was taken to the Kirtlan & Gil
pin- blacksmith shop, where it was
given a thorough test on the forge.
1t gave a perfect welding heat and
was pronounced by Kirkland & Gilpin
as being high grade coal.
Mr.. Cunningham requested that
other members of the company go to
the coal lands and make thorough
inspection before he returns. 1t is
the purpose of the company to send
two or three men. All of the assess
ment work on the claims will be
done immed1atelv.-Gua

SOUTHERN PACIFIC MAKES MARCH.
Gets Away With Southwestern Right-Of-
Way From NacOzari TO the Gulf
of California.

The Southern Pacific and the
Southwestern railways appear to
have entered into a struggle for
supremacy in Sonora, especially at
Nacozari.
Nacozari is the terminus of the
Nacozari railroad, the Southwestern
mining branch running south from
Douglas, and the company had plan
ned the extension of the line to Moe
tezuma, Cumpas and other mining
districts further south in the state.
Within the past few weeks Southern
Pacific engineers have entered the
field and commenced the location of
a line along the very route selected
but not appropriated by the South
western. 1t has since been an
nounced that the Southern Pacific
will build down toward the Yaqui
river, making connection with the
coast line and other extensions of
the company in the republic The
line will also be built north to the
border, but at what point it will cross
has not been determined upon.
1t is said that the Southwestern
will complete the road as it had plan
ned, but will locate a line farther
west of the Southern Pacific location
in order to escape the name of a
parallel line and to receive the
subsidies offered by the government.
The greatest amount of attention
is being given Mexico by all lines
along the northern border of the
republic and the extension of more
than one into productive Mexican
territory is believed to be the plan
for the near future.

A boating party went to Gloucester
where, it is alleged they sold their
uniforms. With the money thus OBJ
tanned, beer was purchased and
smuggled into camp. A score of
men became intoxicated and at
tempted to leave the yard. A fight
ensued during which several shots
were fired before. the mutineers were
Subdued.
