INDIAN COMMITS MURDER
Charley Clark, a cocopah, Kills His
 Wife and Wounds Another SquaW at Pothoes.

As the result of jealousy, one Go copah woman is dead and another is seriously injured from gunshot wound in a fracas over at Potholes Sunday morning Charley Clark, the Cocopah Indian who committed the murder, is at large, having escaped across the border into Mexico.
 Sheriff Mobley Meadows returned to El Centro Thursday forenoon, from Yuma, where he had gone to investi- gate this affair He states that the wife of Charley Clark was shot through the body, the bullet entering her right arm, passing through the body and coming out through the left arm.
 The shooting took place at Laguna Dam about o'clock Sunday morning. The woman was asleep at the time. The wounded woman, known as Huck' apash, who came into the tent at the time of the shooting, was shot through the right lung. She will recover. The murdered squaw was only 20 years old and was considered one of the handsOmest of the tribe. She and her young buck husband HOt-Water-All- Time. were popular.
 After the shooting Clark rushed from the tent shouting that he would not be taken until he killed other Indians instrumental in running his home. Then he mounted horse and as he rode of he cried:
 Tell the police l will not give up until I have killed all who have done me wrong. Then 1 will surrender, do not care what becomes of me"
 He was armed with a Winchester and a revolver. He is considered a dangerous Indian and in the present condition of his mind he will put up a hard fight before being taken. The Indian police and number of the In dians took up the chase immediately It is said by those who knew the hab-

The postponement indicates that Judge Wellborn did not regard the action of the westside ditch in bursting it's bank and running away down New River as an arrant eXpres- sion of contempt for the authority of the court.

Flint Offers Aid.

Senator Flint told me today that he means to visit Imperial Valley this fall and get acquainted with the coun- try and its people. The Senator is earnestly interested in the questions which are important to the valley, and will do all he can to hasten their so- lution. He keeps poking up the General Land office to get the Imperial Valley survey approved and obstacles to the issuing of patents removed and doesn't forget that he is in office to serve the public.
 We talked of the injustices to set. tiers arising from application of ex- isting law governing contest cases, and of possible remedies for them. Senator Flint thought it impossible to pass a bill giving the actual set tier and improver of contested land a preferential right of entry in cases like that of Skinner vs. Bowker, but suggested that an act confirming the title of bona fide settlers, regardless of irregularities in original entries, and assignments, might be substantial and a preventive of future trouble and negotiable applications of the desert land act. If the people of Imperial Valley desire such legisla- tion, Senator Flint is ready to intro duce and urge the passage of a bill to that effect.

Los Angeles. Sept. 3, 19OI


 The uuiOu that it is a sacred duty or a bygjenic law that one shall get out of ImEerial Valley in the summer and seek recreation and comfort in Los Angeles and at the beaches is a greater delusiou than the battleship mirage-only the mirage is an flu. sion. someone will remind me.
 Los Angeles is full of Imperialists trying to think they are having a good time The effort is wearing, and they are the soemnist-looking vaca- ton idIers to Joe seen anywhere. They stand and sit about the hotel lobbies all day luug, as lonesome as desert owls, and when they meet a brother from the desert they talk about when they are going home. There isn't one of the lot that isn't secretly longing for a glimpse of real sunshine and a chance to shed his hard, baldfaced shirt and heavy underclothes and be comfortable.
 met Kyle McBratney one even ing on the street. He was shivering, and he said he knew he ought to wear an overcoat but was ashamed to put one on. You see the sun doesn't rise until noon in Los Angel es and it doesn't stay up long enough to shed any warmth. That sort of thing seems to be enjoyed by East erners and confirmed Angelenos, but desert dwelers come to need sun shine more than they need clothes and stoves, and they are unhappy in a fog
 It doesn't help much to go down to the beaches. Long Beach, for exam pie, is the dreariest pleasure resort imaginable It is a densely respec- table town and it frowns on friv olity. I wonder what would happen to anyone rash enough to laugh aloud in Long Beach.
 Valley Autoists.
 The town appears to be populated chiefly with middle-aged women, and they are all either very stout or dis tressingly attenuated. You can see that when they go down to the beach in bathing costume. And a lot of them are bow-that is, they are sort of parenthetical in their understanding, The gayety of Long Beach was height ened to comparative eXuberance last week by a congress of spiritualists and mediums I tried to get Jake Mead oWS to go down there and see the do ingS at the SpOOk rOOSt, but he said he didn't believe in hants, and he went automobiling with Fred Fuller instead The County Assessor has bought a two-cylinder, 20-horse power Reo car, and he sits in the tonneau with his feet upon the back of the front seat. lying in wait for valley ites to go riding with him. He looks sad. He says he has a notion to drive the car home by way of San Diego if all the other valley people who have bought autos will join him and make it a procession. Fuller and Carter and a few other wise folks didn't grow melons this year, you may remember.

 The car was approaching Myrtle av- euue when one of the men drew a gleamlng blade from his pocket and luuged at one of the others.

Before they are gathered, how ever, receptacles are prepared for them in the shape of large frames, over whIC are stretched cotton cloths weli saturated with olive oil or almond oil. The cut flowers are brought in and are thickly spread on a frame Then an- other frame Is fitted over 1t. and that in turn is well spread with flowers. Then a third frame Is fitted over the second spread of flowers, and thus the work goes on until a huge pile of flowers Is prepared.
 This flower heap Is left for two days, at the end of which time the flowers are removed from the frames and re- placed by fresh ones.

All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood. They work day and ghto When healthy they remove about 500 grains of impure matter daily, when un. healthy some part of this impure mat ter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptoms pain in the back, headache, nervous ness, hot: dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hearing, dizziness, irregular heart, debility, drowsiness. diopsy, depo Its in the urine, etc. But If you keep the filters right yoh will have DO trouble with your kidneys.

not finally determined, but he leans to
that decision of the matter.
One part of the message to which
the President has devoted himself with
especial satisfaction is the discussion
of the battleship fleets trip around the
world. 1t has been source of graft
fication to him that the display has
been so strikingly successful both as
a demonstration of the fitness of the
navy and of the excellent relations be-
tween the United States and the ma
tions of the world. The President will
take occasion once more to press for
a permanent policy of naval ex-
pansion. He is also strongly inclined
to some changes in the navy bureau
system, possibly aimed to bring the
department organization nearer to that
which prevails in the British navy.
