All the indications point to a very
large immigration to the Pecos Valley
this fall, owing to crop failures over
the entire west, extending from the
Dakotas to Texas. The green bug,
late freezes, and lack of rain fall has
destroyed the crops and left feeling
of discomfort that will cause thous-
ands to seek new homes. They will
want to go where they can figure ON
reasonable returns for their labor and
capital expended. l. j. Ballard return
ed Friday from trip to the Panhandle
and reports great dissatisfaction
among the farmers, and heard good
many express themselves as desirous
of going to the artesian belt of the
Pecos Valley, where they can drill
wells and not have to depend upon
rain fall. We understand around Can
yoa City, the farmers have made q
complete failure and that many of
them intend to try their fortunes in
this valley. We look for the most
prosperous Fall ever experienced in
his valley, and Lake Arthur intends
to have her share of the new corners

ID KISS KIS WIFE?
 NEVER
Denver Man Neglected Ii for First Time in Seven Years, and Wife Left Home for Several Days,

DENVER, July 6.-The one best bet in Denver today Is that w. J. Long will never again forget to kiss his wife.
 Long forgot one day last week. and his wife left him for seven days. He didn't know where she was, and he wouldn't have found out if he hadn't appealed to the papers for aid. But he did; his wife saw the appeal, and yesterday she returned home. Now Long is delighted, and so is his wife or would be, if she wasn't sick in bed from remorse at the worry she caused her husband.
 The Longs live at 1923 Park avenue. They have been married seven years, but never before last Wednesday did Long neglect to perform his osculatory duties every morning as he left for work. On that day he was in a hurry to get down town, and running out of the door, he called back: Good by" and hiked for his place of business.
 When he got home that evening there was no sign of Mrs. Long. Long was worried. The childreI did not know where she was, nor did the hoUsekeeper.
 The dayS passed and Stld Mrs. Long did not return. Long gave lp his po- sition that he might dcyose all his time to searching for her. That aid no good, either. Meantime the house keeper. fearing scandal" if she re mained in the house while Mrs. Long was not there, departed also, and Long had the care of the three children on his hands.
 At last he decided to appeal to the papers yesterday stating that he was greatly worried and wanted her back at home.
 Bright and early yesterday morning Mrs. Long returned. She had been visiting friends in North Denver, she declared. She had left in a fit of pique because Long had neglected the daily kiss, but she'd never do it again, honest. Then she took to her bed, worn out by the excitement of finding that her husband loved her, after all.

TWAiN'S DAUGHTER
 IN A SHlPWRECK

HALIFAX, N. &, July 6.-The coast ing steamer Senlac. twenty minutes after leaving her wharf in this harDUT late this afternoon, came into collision with the steamer Rosalind, bound for New York.
 The Rosalind stove a hole fifteen feet long in the Senlac's starDoard side aDaft her smokestack. At once the Senlac began to settle in the water but as she hung alongside the Rosa lind for a few moments the tree pas seagcrs and the crew of ninety-five scrambled over the rail and got aboard the boat from New York. The Rosa lind had sustained no damage, Miss C. Clemens. daughter of Mark Twain, accompanied by Miss I. Lyon of New York, was a passenger on the Rosalind, intending to take the round trip to St. Johns, N. r. Miss Glenn ems says it was very foggy from the time they left New York. and she re- mained below during most of the pas sage. As they were nearing Halifax harbor she was preparing to come on deck when she felt the shock of the two steamships crashing together.
 As we came on deck they told me that we had struck q buoy, but l saw wTeckage on the water and knew they were only trying to allay our fears, she said. At the same time we also saw the other steamer sliding off and men coming aboard the Rosalind over the rail-
 Then Senlac drifted off in the fog Believing that the Senlac would sink the Rosalind kept on her course and steamed up the harbor. Subsequently tow boat went out from Halifax and found the Senlac still afloat, her decks awash in the sea. She was brought in and beached,

CRIPPLE WITH DEEP
 VOICE BLUFFS BANDIT
Comes Across Stage HoIduD and Makes the Highway
 men SkiddOO,

BOULDER, Colo. July 6.-Six masked men. armed with rifles and re volyers, tonight attempted to rob the Boulder-Nederland stage as it was re turning from the Tungsten Camp, filled with passengers coming to Boulder to participate in the Fourth of July celebration.
 The whole gang was put to flight by R. E. Huggart. a cripple. the ridiug boss of the Colorado Eastern Power company, who suddenly appeared Cn the scene. and drawing his revolver, charged the bandits and drove theIn in flight up the rocky wall of the canyon.
 The holdup occurred In Bouldsr canyon, about eight miles from town. The daily Nederland stage, driven Gy J. T. Carmack of Boulder. was coming down, filled with passengers, all car rying large amount of cash to spend in Boulder during the carnival. No danger was feared, as the canyon road Is considered safer than Sixteenth street in Denver. Never in the his tory of the county has stage robbery been perpetrated and few burglaries have been attempted. The horses
 
 masked men Stepped out from behind the bushes, surrounded the stage and ordered the driver to halt and the pas sengers to alight. All complied with alacrity and lined up with their hands above their heads. Two of the gang loked to the driver and the cxpress box, while the others started to rob miners So occupied were all the par. ticipants that DO one heard the suuI ds of horses hoofs announcing a new conner. In fact the first in n;trnation tf rescue was a gruff voice crying, Clear out of here" ''ha miners dropped their hands. and tue b,ndits gave one look at the mans revolver and fled.
 Huggart is a cripple He mas tray. eled over the most of the Uni-ed States in charge cf large bodies Of men He always carries Il gun. The only time when he was cauGnt without it occurred at Nederland his spring when general fight arose in the camp. Huggart rushed to his tenI rn that occasion, grabbed his revolver and then, turning on the crowd. he threatened to shot any maa who dis obeyed orders. He is abolt five feet eight inches tall. He is a rla1, who acordin;s to his friends, knows ID fear but he was to modest to be quoted about the rescue today.
 The theory of the sheriffs office i' that the men >vho attempted the hold up were either some discharged work CTS from the camp up the canyon oi Fsome toughs who have come into fht town for the celebration.

DAlLD0ADS USE MOTOR
 CARS ON BRANCH LINES

NEW YORK, July 6.-An extremely interesting innovation in railway pas senger transportation in this county will be inaugurated next month, when it is announced, the Union Pacific rail road will place in service 12 gasoline rail-motor cars. The cars are intend ed for branch line traffic, where the fast and frequent service required can except at loss.
 The latest type of these cars deyel- oped at the Omaha shops of the Union Pacific makes 60 miles an hour with a 200 horse power engine, reaches high speed within six car lengths, and can be stopped within 120 feet. With these advantages the cars can be put on much faster schedule than is pos sible with the steam locomotive.
 Outwardly the newest of the cars which are built entirely of steel, re sembie a tuTned-ovsr racing yacht Theforward end tapers sharply, and the roof and rear are rounded off tC reduce the air resistance and avoid the vacuum produced by square car Rounded windows give to the passen gers a wide range of outlook, and in crease the nautical appearance of the car.
 In cold weather the cars are to be heated by hot water from the cylinder jacket. They are lighted by acetlyns gas shining through opaIescent panels
 For sanitary reasons the floors O the cars are built so that they can bt thoroughly cleaned by flushing wit hot water. The familiar system O ventilation has been replaced by roo ventilators which exhaust the insid, air by suction, fresh air being takeI in from the car roof in front. Vibra tion is reduced to minimum by tn, way in which the motive power is bal anced.
 The cost of operating the cars variel from tento twenty cents mile, accord ing to the density of the traffic. bu the records kept prove beyond doub that the rail-Dotor car will make pos sible great improvements in handlin: branch line passenger traffic.

WHEELER'SSTORY OF KILLING
 OUTLAWS
Ranger Tells Graphically How He Came on Horse Thieves After Hot Ride of 40 Miles Over Desert.

YUMA. July 6.-In telling the story of the shooting of Jim Kerrick. Ran ger Wheeler, in an interview, said:
 T left here on June 26 and went as far as Melton, where l met Johlay Cameron, whom l had wired D as soon as l had word from Captain Wheeler to go after the men. Cameron had two horses at Sentinel, and toge h CT we struck out across the burning desert in search of the outlaws. We knew they were in the Ajo country, and We rode 140 miles in the blazids heat, tracking the horsethieves. Ca Saturday we rode thirty-fiy5 miles. Our horses went without water the en tire day. and the water in our cantecns was so hot we couldn't drink it, and you know how hot it was. Just as dawn was breaking we started In the direction we knew the men were camping, and when We had walked d mile and half we took off our shoes and walked another mile and a half before wecame upon the men sleeping beside their guns.
 "Bentley's Winchester lay about a foot from where he was asleep, an1 as soon as he was awakened (of course we let them know what we wanted,) he managed to load his gun before I began shoting. Four times shot at him, but not until the fifth shot did he drop. The bullet went through his left temple and came out the right ear. Cameron got his man Kerrick with one shot. My gun was 3O-40 rifle, and Cameron carried a 30-3O,
 When we were sure they were dead We put them on their own horses and rode twenty-five miles with them to the Ten Miles Wells, ten miles from the Ajo. We sent word to Sentinel to wire to Pima county for a coroner. The coroner refused to come, and a wire was sent to Silver Bell for the justice of the peace, and he refused to come. So it was all day when Sher- if Pacheco arrived, before we buried the men. We did not dare leave them on top of the ground any longer on account of the heat. so I made boxes for them and lowered them into the ground. Even when Pacheco got there the bodies were decomposed be- yond recognition.
 We went back to Gila Bend. where we took the train for home. Both men were wanted for stealing Indian ponies in Maricopa county. There was no reward offered either by the cap tain of the rangers or the sheriff of MaricOpa county"
