DID HE JET HIS FILL OF LOVELY
 SANDSTORMS?
Hearst and Wife Rush for the Pullman After Experience in Painted Desert and Beauti- fuI Sand Clouds.


 Whatever else may be said of W.
 R. Hearst. he has not hitherto been painted as Nemesis chasing himself
 around over the country seeking to in- iliet retributiye justice. but the fol-
 lowing story puts him in q class of
 that kind, all by himself. It may be
 expected that the first thing he will
 do when he gets back to winch ever
 city he pnw calls home. will be to
 stop his subscription to the various
 Examiners and Journals and things
 hat are now appearing by his author
 ity and perhaps inaugurate a press
 censorship in connection with his
 family altar. immediately after morn ing prayer it will be 8 good thing for him to glance through the Sunday supplements and see if there is any thing objectionable in their columns. 1 before scattering them promiscuously through the library or where mem
 bers. of his family will be likely to come in contact with them.
 This story is told by a man who came down from Flagstaff day or two ago and he hands it out for the truth. He is an admirer of MT. l Hearst, but he also likes a good joke ] and this one he thinks was sure shot at broad target, the best part of it being that no joke was intended l in any quarter. MT. and Mrs. Hearst and their little daughter, together with the father and mother of Mrs. | Hearst, spent week or two in north | -rn Arizona. leaving only a few days | ago for Los Angeles, and this is how | it all came about.
 1 Mrs Hearst is said to be great l reader of the Hearst publications, and | js particularly interested in the won | drous things told about in the Sun l 1ay supplements and magazine pages, by the talented and picturesque writ Iers who dilate upon the worlds mar l vels. at so much per column of her | husbands s money. One of the things that particularly caught her fancy was the beauty and impressiyeness of the Arizona painted deserts ana | heir magnificent, awe-inspirlng sano- l storms. The matter was brought 10 | MT. Hearst's attention. and Kept there | until something of the same splrlt ! began to soak into him. He gradual | W led himself to believe that the Ari- zona sandstorn, though q practical nuisance, as he had always known, l from the standpoint of one who was really imbued with love of nature, might be ali that it was cracked uF to be- Anyhow. if it were really luxury, it was one that he and Mrs. Hearst could afford to enjoy, and If 1 t were not. 1t was an expense they 1 could also well afford, and beside, It would help to Keep up excitement De | tween campaign seasons.
 1 Quitting details. the party named N,FzA tla in Flagstaff two or three weeks ago and immediately began preparing for a desert trip. Henry Ashurst, the original Hearst man in those parts, met them at the depot anu placed
 himself at NIT. Hearst's command.
 When told the mission of the party
 was a desert trip, MT Ashurst was
 surprised. he told MT. Hearst the
 | snake dance season in the Mod viii
 lages did not mature until fall, the
 time Of the year for desert expiera'
 ton. The only reply was that the
 Hearst party was billed for desert ! trip and wanted a wagon. They pro
 posed .t to revel in all the wildnesi
 i that northern Arizona could present
 for a week in June time. MT. Ash
 urst tcld him he might be caught II a sandstorm, and Mir. Hearst replied
 that that was just what he was plan
 ming to do Mir 4shurst then tot'
 him that horse feed provender ant water were almighty scarce On th desert, and MT. Heafst's reply wa to get another wagon for commisar purposes and some good man to tax ! charge of the, caravan. It was don 4 and the party took a course almos l due north a hundred miles to Tub City. About the same time the fir est kind Of a sandstoTm set in an $ lasted for several days. From Tub $ City the trail lay easUwdrdly to Ora & ba. They were then in the heart | ' Nowhere, but it was very importan that they should get Somewhere, s J they turned south again and travele $ almost Everywhere, but finally reacf , ed Winslow. Here they disposed ( ! the caravan, appropriated all the VI T cant space left in the first Pulina i car that showed up and bough ; through tckets to Los Angeles. The Imade no stop in Flag5taFf. not eve 5 to see Henry One of the guides | the desert trip said MT. Hearst va | very taciturn and was not effusiy & over the beautiful tints of the yves $ ern sky during the desert trip Non ! of the party stopped to color an A canvasses during the journey, an x whenever a stop was made it too * two men to hold down a mesquite palo verde stock on the lee side [ a sanddnne, so it would not bio < away while the third was kindlin s a fire under it to heat q bit of wats * | in the coffee pot.
