SCalped by Hand Car

With his scalp torn so that it hung to the skull by few slender threads of flesh, John Campfield survived the journey of thirty hours from Flagstaff, Ariz., and arrived are Friday morning to be taken the local Santa Fe hospital for Treat ment.
 Campfeld was foreman of the sec tion gang working out of Flagstaff on one of the most difficult sections on the Santa Fe system. and was going to work yesterday morning when the hand car on which he and his menrode. gave lurch. The car was covered with snow and Cam field lost his footing, and fell on the track directly in front of the speeding car. Two wheels passed over the top of his head, pealing the scalp from the forehead, back of the ears, to the back of the head. The aspect the injured man present. ed as ne was lifted from a baggage care on train No. 2 was so ghastly that strong men turned their heads away.
 At the hospital, however, Cam fields injuries were reported not ne- cessarily serious but severe and pain ful. Dr. Cutter, the physician in charge, said the scalp had been patched up and that if all went we'll with the patient, he would not loose his hair. He shows a strong consti- tuition and will likely recover from the injury. Camfeld is said to be one of the best section men in the employ of the Santa Fla in Arizona. Albuquerque Journel.

INSPECTOR IN FOREST RESERVE
Joseph j. Campbell Of Prescott Has Been Appointed to Have Charge
 of Ranges ln the Reserves

Washington. April 4.-Joseph J Campbell of Prescott, Arizona, a stockman who has had wide ex-. perience on the ranges of the south west. has been appointed as an in- spector of grazing in the forest service. Special attention will be given to grazing matters during the coming season and every effort made to improve the value of the ranges within the national forests. A portion of the $500. 900 appropria- tion recently made for improve ments on the national forests will be expended in the con. struction of drift fences where needed for the proper control of grazing and in building reservoirs on portions of the range which can- not now be fully utilized on account of the lack of a sufficient supply of water.
 The advantages of properly con- trolled range which is being con- stantly improved will fully compen- sate the stockmen for the grazing fees paid by them. The losses will be smaller: the weight of the stock will be increased and they will bring better prices when marketed. When this is fully realized the objection to the payment of mod crate grazing fee will be entirely over come.

LOS ANGELES POSTOfFIGE

A press report from Washington says: The contest over the material of which the Los Angeles public building is to be constructed prom ises to develop into controversy equal to that which took place over the Cleveland. O., public building.
 The supervising architect of the Treasury and the citizens of Los Angeles have not been able to come to any agreement regarding the character of the material to be used in the building. Senator Flint is known to favor pressed brick, but Supervising Architect Taylor says that the style of architecture pro- vided for the Federal building will not permit of brick. and rather than see such material used he will ad- yocate Arizona red sandstone. And here the controversy rests.

ANY STAMPS
Wlli Do for Special Delivery After Juiy
 1. A Great Convenience

The great convenience, economy and growing popularity of the special delivery feature of the mails has influenced the officials of the postoffice department t. add to the convenience of the public in the matter without detracting from the promptness and efficiency of the system, by the plan of enabling the sender of the letter or parcel to mail the same without the custom ary regular special delivery stamp" which has been in use for so many years.
 The new arrangement will be made effective after the first of July, according to official advices received here and it is looked for ward to with interest by the officials who have the matter Tn charge.
 All that the sender has to do under the new arrangement is to put 10 cents worth of stamps of any denomination in addition to the regular postage and then mark the matter with the word special" on the envelope, an deposit it in the regular mail box in the postoffice.
 It will be treated as special delivery letter and the present trouble of sending to the postoffice to buy special delivery stamps for this specific purpose will be done away with.

THE WOOL BUSINESS or 1907
Tonnage Of the Clip. It's Value. Trans p0rtation. Markets, and Shear
 inS Camps.

The wool business is over for this year. so far as this valley is con- cerned. and the figures have been finally secured concerning the mag nitude of it. The clip shipped from the four shearing points in the valley totaled in weight l .659,- 065 pounds. Averaging the clip at F cents a pound, its value would aggregate $282. .O4l.05. Just what the average is was not learned. but it is known that some of the wool sold for considerably more than IT cents and some may have been sold for less. It may be fairly stated, though. that the value of the clip would aggregate somewhere in the vicinity of $30O,OOO.
 The wool was mostly sold for shipment to Boston. About 100, 900 pounds of it went to Albuquerque where there is woolen mill plant, and little perhaps went to other points. To transport the clip. eighty-five freight cars were re- .quired, or two immense moderan day freight trains. and General agent w. Soldsworthy of the Santa Fe is just little bit elated over the fact that every pound of it was shipped over the Santa Fe ines.
 The shearing was done at four camps in the valley namely. Peoria, Beardsley, Cave Creek and Queen Creek. The first two named are in the northwestern part of the valley, the plant at Beardsleys being pro nounced by wool buyers, as perhaps the best equipped shearing plant in the west and perhaps as good as can be found any where. Many sheep are sheared at Cave Creek which is beyond the first range of hills to the north of Phoenix. these flocks not coming much nearer the city than Paradise valley. Quite number of sheep were sheared at the Queen Creek station this year, the camp being mid way between Mesa City and Florence, where the deserts af- ford good winter ranges for time.
 There is no definite information available concerning the exact num- Der of sheep sheared in the valley, but it is estimated that the feeces will average about six pounds each in weight. On that basis to secure the tonnage of wool that has been shipped this year 276,56l sheep must have been sheared. which in point of numbers would equal good days work even in Wall street, though the Wall street fieces are usually many times more valuable.
