T. s.. tiJctgu president us the
ArizOna lumber ana Timber company
owning large saw mills in the vicinity
Of Flagstaff Ariz., is spending the
day IN Albu yIe-que. Mr. Riordan
arrived from lei Paso this morning
and expects to leave tonight for Flag
staff.
Two years ago when in A0uquer-
que for few days, Mr.. Riordan
bought a lot at the corner of Central
avenue and Third street, paying about
S14,500, and sold IT again within
twenty-four hours, making $4,000
clear profit, without even having to
pay for "A deed.
Il was looking at that property this
morning" said Mr.. Riordan, "and /
am sorry that | ever let go of il. Al
buquerque is a good town and viii
some day be the capital of the state
of New Mexico"
Mr.. Riordan has made millions in
investments covering the west, and
this statement coming from him
should make Albuquerque realty hold
ers feel pretty good. The Arizona
Lumber ana Timber company is one
Of the largest numbering concerns in
the southwest Beside owning a con-
trolling interest In that concern, with
his brother. manager for the COM
pany. he is heavily Interested in the
Globe FIGURING Mills company, own
ing large flour mills at san Francis
co, Los Angeles, Cotton and San Diego
Cal This company is now engaged in
building a mill at El Paso and
business I'm connection with the build
ing OF this mill was the occasion Of
Mr.. Riordan's visit 10 the Pass city
We may some day establish a mill
In Albuquerque, said Mr.. Riordan
we like HI Paso better Just now be-
cause il Is better distributing point.
southern Arizona Is aCcessa ole from IL
just now better than Albuquerque.
And l understand that you have two
very good mills here. Our new mill
at El Paso win have a capacity Of $50
barrels Of flour a day We expect TO
get much wheat from the farmers of
the Rio Grande valley. but most Of il
will be shipped in from Kansas. The
valley cannot furnish enough wheat
to keep the mill going the year
around.

II think that ono Of the biggest
things that Albuquerque has captur-
I'd in recent years is the forest head

0er of good people TO the city. AL |
5uquerque Is TO be congratulated. The !
boys that work for the service are a !
very intelligent able and energetic |
young fellows. who make good citi- |
zens. 1 don't see how the government !

Just such fellows"

During the prevalence of yellow fever
in the South the service maintained q
quarantine patrol on the Gulf coast
from Louisiana to Florida, the result
of which was that not case OF yellow
fever entered any locality by water
within the limits of the patrol.
Many newspapers stated that great
assistance was rendered by the service

operation with the municipal authori-
ties and the army in preserving order,
in checking the progress of the fire,
which threatened to destroy the entire
city, and in the transportation and dis
tribution of supplies.
Revenue cutters have cruised very
actively on the. Atlantic coast during
the winter for the relief of distressed
shipping, and help in various ways has
been afforded q large number of dis
abled and stranded vessels and their
crews. The duties just mentioned af-
ford complete evidence of the high
efficiency and practical value of the
Revenue Cutter Service. 1t is always
alert and active in the interest of the
government and the people. Its Off
GERS and men are worthy of our finest
ideals of courage and devotion. And
may the candidates who are fortunate
enough to receive appointments as ca.
diets in the Revenue Cutter Service re-
alize, that, as no duty is unimportant
SO q readiness to do the routine work
of the service is training for future
achievements. The record Of the pas

Adaptations Of the
Gas Engine.

Paper Read Before the ChdutduQua Circle.
There has been many papers and
books written on the advantages and
disadvantages OF mechanical power
generators and electricity as power.
Electricity has done much and enables
great wonders considered by most peo-
pie as nothing short of miracles. We
often read of these great works and
still greater possibilities, but we must
always remember that behind electric
ity there must be generating power,
the force of running water, stream,
or a gas engine. Since it is plain that
electricity is not independent, or in
most all important cases secondary
power, as compressed air totally is.
they do not, in the strict sense of the
word, come under the head of mechan-
ical power as primary cause.
Up to date the steam engine plays
the most important primary part, but
even it has begun to lose ground. The
gas engine, better known as the gaso-
line engine, was at first taken as a
joke, or the rich mans toy, to be used
simply rs any other luxury is used, as
source of pleasure. In those days
such engines were very delicate, uncer-
tain and given to accidents which gave
them bad name.
That time was not generations ago
but only few years, scarcely more
than ten, yet today so great has the in.
dustry of manufacturing gas engines
for all purposes grown that millions OF
dollars are invested aud thousands ol
men given employment. From a small
beginning the number of automobiles
trucks, boats and farm machines
driven by internal combustion engines
has grown to such an extent that there
are few towns, rivers, lakes aud farm,
in the country that are strangers to thu
sound of the exhaust.
| Our modern farming is becomiu,
more and more the work of brains in
stead Of brute strength and hard man
ual labor. The up-tO-date farmer sit

BODIES OF TRIBESMEN'S
VICTIMS ARE LOCATED
Leader of Desperate Gang on Island
of Negros Stays Americans Be-
cause "He Felt Like KILL
Ing Some One"

MANILA, July 1.-THE bodies of H.
D. Everett, a government forester, and
T. r. Wakely, a school teacher, who
were murdered several weeks ago by
tribesmen while on an expedition into
the unexplored mountain region Of the
island of Negros, have been recovered
by Lieutenant Ahern of the constabu-
larry forces after a difficult and danger
GUS search.
Lieutenant Ahern tells of the finding
of the bodies in the following tele-
gram which has been received here:
Am returning with the remains of
Everett and Wakely, which we found
near their last camp in the Bayaual
mountains. At first our guides were
apparently afraid to lead us into the
mountains of the interior of the island
the route Travelled by the two muir
dered men. Luckily we at length sue
ceeded in securing guides who were
acquainted with Ayhao, the leader OF
the murderers, and who took us to the
last camp of Everett and Wakely.
"Ayhao, it was explained, planned
the murder while acting as one of the
native guides which were conducting
the two white men into the interior OF
the island. While gambling with the
other guides he drugged the entire
party with the fumes from plant:
Ayhao and some followers then killed
Everett and Wakely and five guides.
The only excuse given by. Ayhao for
numbering the party was that me felt
like killing some one"

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, July 1.-THE
rebels have captured the towns of Ma
caone and Bien, and Santa Rosa and
Copan are menaced. The revolutions
lists have been almost uniformly VIC
torious.
Nicaragua is fearful of the outcome
of the movement In. Honduras, for
there is reason to believe that the plan
CT the allies is first to establish a joint
government in Honduras as soon as
Davila is driven out, and then to ad-
vance upon and overthrow the zelaya
government in this republic.
The Nicaraguan government has pre-
sented complaint to the Central
American court of justice. located at
Cartago. Costa Rica. based upon the
allegation that the governments of
Guatemala and Salvador have rendered
assistance to the revolutionists of Hon
duras and the Nicaragua refugees who
are allied with them.
This fact, the Nicaraguan govern
ment alleges, menaces the peace of the
Nicaraguan republic. President Zelaya
is organizing an army to protect the
Nicaraguan frontier and his action to
this end receives the support of the
people of the country.
A request has been sent in from
Porto Gertez, Honduras. for Mexican
warships to protect Mexican interests.

POLICE BELIEVE
BOY~WAS KILLED
FIND BODY OF LAD IN BIN OF
GARBAGE
SAN FRANCISCO OFFICERS AR
REST SUSPECT
Post Mortem Reveals Wound In Head
Which May Have Been Made by
Prong of Rake or Small
Bullet
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 11.-Work-
ing on the theory that John Buchneff,
the 14-year-old lad whose body was
found buried in a bin of garbage at the
sanitary reduction works last night,
was murdered and his body thrown
into the bin to conceal the evidences of
the crime, the police today placed Aug
ust Delmonte, an employe at the plant.
under arrest pending further investi-
cation.
A post mortem examination of the
body showed that death resulted from
a wound in the head, described as such
a one as might have been made by the
prong of a rake or a small caliber
bullet.
No bullet was found, however, and
the police are working on the theory
that the lad was playing about the bin,
and when ordered away did something
to anger some employe of the plant.
which resulted in his being struck on
the head.
1t is thought possible that when the
seriousness of the lads injury became
apparent to his assailant the latter
threw the body into the bin, hoping
that it would be consumed with the
mass OF debris, thus protecting him
from the consequences of his act.
