negro, probably insane, stole the de-
tached locomotive on freight train
on the Central of Georgia Railway in

gan to move. grasped for and clung
TO the driving rods, his only chance
for escape from death. Whirled up
and down within a few inches of
death for several minutes, he finally
succeeded in climbing over the rods
to the running board along the en-
gine. then gained the cab. while the
engine with throttle wide open was
making fast time towards Dawson

YUMA TREASURER |S FOR BANKING
 HABITS
May Be Removed for Dis crimination Against
 Certain Banks

YUMA, October IS. Rivalry be- tween two local banks for the honor of being the depository of the Yuma county funds has a sensational culmin- atiou in the report of the fall grand jur presented to Judge I. H. Campbell. Several months ago County Treasurer George Mchaelson temporarily withdrew the county funds from the First Nation al bank of Yuma and deposited the same in the private banking institu- ton of E. F. Sanguinetti, on which the grand jury unexpectedly called to pro. duee the county funds for counting in i'e exercise of its supposed legal priv ilCge. A certificate of deposit for $l0,- coo on the Farmers and Merchants bank of Los Angeles was among the cash
 nd securities exhibited. This is held to be contraventiOn of the statutes of Arizona, forbidding county funds to be deposited outside of the territory.
 In its report the grand jury recon mended that County Treasurer Michael. son be given thirty days in which to withdraw the county funds from the Sanguinetti bank and deposit the same in the incorporated banks of the town, which comply with the statutory pro visions; further that unless the county treasurer comply with this demand, the board of county supervisors be instruct ed to remove the county treasurer from office and appoint another official

The Arctic Vacation

Lieutenant Peary shas given out the information that before long the trip to the pole will be a popular summer outing. Evidently the gentlemen who toll in the hot city will then be due to receive letters like the following from the absent loved ones:
 North Pole Hotel.
 Three Months Past Evening.
 Dear Henry: How sweet it was to get out of blistering Boston and come up here where nothing but long stretch es of snow and advertisements for gum drops greet the eye as far as the eye can reach. (This reminds me that I must have s20 for gumdrops for our Eskimo servant at once. Please en- close in next letteri)
 We arrived at Etah to find the place frosted over with snow like wedding cake. l bought ten new fur hats, two fur coats and large supply of other clothing which is positive necessity If one is to look at all presentable at the society events up here. The bill is on the way home to you now.
 From there we came on to the pole on the Peary railroad, so called because it arrives little late. The scenery. along the way is very chilly looking ana un- interesting. Once or twice we were stuck in bunch of ice and at such times l always thought of you, toiling Tn the hot, dusty city, never tasting the joys of polar travel. I thought so much about you that I bought large beau tiful rug for you from an Eskimo ped dler. It will beautify our home and make you happier. l think I will put it in my room. The bill is on its way to you in this mail.
 Me are all well, and Gryee has made quite hit with an Eskimo nobleman- cold storage count or something of the sort. Wouldn't it be grand if this trip would result in-Ou forming a con neetion with the nobility. Please send me $l00 for entertaining the count.
 Let us hear how you are making out in the hot, noisy city. l wish you mad a little of this ice to smooth your path. 1 suppose the only ice that you meet these days tinkles in a glass. We'll, don't overdo it, and hurry along the small change.
 Yours lovingly,
