A big footprint, relic of an ancient
American race. has just been received
at the National Museum. The specimen
is concrete cast of the first footprint
yet encountered of the most highly
civilized lost people once living within
the present boundaries of the United
States.
The cities of this people occupied
southern Arizona. The foot making the
imprint was apparently bare. and much
larger than the feet of any of the
known Indian tribes or races of the
country.
The specimen came from Casa
Grande, on the line of the Southern
Pacific. south of the Gila River Indian
Reservation. At Casa Grande cBig

served ruins of this extinct civilization
different from anything else in the
country, and quite unrelated to the cliff
dwellings and other architectural relics
of northern Arizona.

Here is a story they tell on Quentin

was trying to impress on her pupils the
values and injuriousness of certain foods
and drinks, and wanted to find out how

Just few hands went up in reply to
this question. Then she tackled them

suits of clothes alike. The son-in-law.
on visit here, by accident wore the
Speakers trousers one night, and then
decided that he would not tell the
Speaker. Mr.. Cannon put on those
! trousers few days later, and in the
hip pocket where a bottle is sometimes
carried, and sometimes a six-shooter, he
found a wad of bills. When he counted
these he found something over $50. He
tackled his son-in-law at the dinner
table and accused him of wearing out
his trousers. which Mr.. lie Seur stren-
uously denied. Then" remarked Uncle
Joe, you are not the owner of the $50
found in the hip pocket of those pants.
The money must belong to some other
fellow. I'll Just keep it," and he did.
The joke was too good to keep, how
ever; that is why 1t is now told.

on Tuesday. All day long the
snow fell, and there was a cold,
stiff north.winl. The snow reac h

blockades were reported west of US,
however, and the mail service was

School Entertainment.

The entertainment by the Mon

nounced on Thursday night. The
programme was not II very long
one, but was well rendered, the pu.

of thorough drilling and marked
advancement along the lines in
which their talents were brought
into play. 1t ought TO be CRAFTY
ing to those having the matter in
charge to know that the effort was
pronounced success by ali who
have been heard to speak of it.
The attendance was fairly good
IN view of the fact that sickness
prevailed in so many homes.
The net receipts were about $685..
90, which will be applied to the
further improvement of the build
ing.
Some enthusiastic patrons, both
of the entertainment and of the
school, were heard to express the
hope that the management wonld
give these recitaIs and entertain,
ments more frequently, because the
people patronizedand enjoyed them,
the pupils were benefited and the
proceeds were badly needed.
Funds are needed to fence, grade

there is no better way by which
the burdens and pleasures may be
distributed and shared than BY this
method of securing the necessary
money.
