THE POWER LINE
 DEATH TO BIRDS
The Line Is Strewn With the Remains
 of Buzzards and Hawks.

J. C. Goodwin returned yesterday afternoon from a trip on mining busi- ness to Goldfield. He camped there the night before and shortly after dark had a rather interesting experience. He vas looking at the time in the direc- ton of the government power trans mission line. Suddenly there was a blinding flash in that direction, the whole CoIntry was for a moment H. lumnateJ and then followed crash not cnlike a small cannon. He was unable tO account for the incident un- 'Il the ext morning. when he related ttc experience to a member of the exclamation service who passed that way. That gentleman said the inSi- dent was not at all uncommon. He attributed it to some large bird hay ing alighted on one of the heavily charged wires. The bird probably spread its wings and thus came in con- tact with two wires at the same time. forming a short circuit and prOduc- ing the flash and likewise the instant death of the bird. The gentleman stat ed that along the line might be found the remains Of buzzards and hawks that had met a similar fate.

 BEST OF THE TWO
The Company Left Valley Yesterday
 Next Stop at Tucson.

James Post and his company played tlrvir second and last engagement at the Goodwin opera house, Friday even ing to a good sized house. The show was d better one than that of Wednes- day night and, for it's class, is by far the best thing that has been seen in Tempe thus far this season. The com pany carries a dozen and a half of peo- pie Some of the members have real ly gosS voices and know how to use them to advantage. The work of the chorus was good and the play on a whole was one that pleased.
 Friday nights bill was "Muldoon's Picnic" Post himself took a leading part in it but most of the humor was supplied by that clever comedian, Billie Onslow The play was the sort that inspires laugh every other line. some times oftener Between times song and dance was worked in here and there and the chorus was given an op- portunity to display it's ability.
 The company left yesterday for Tucson whaTe an engagement of some length will be played and the terri tcry will then be toured.
 Last night was the usual moving picture show, and on Wednesday even ing of this week Jack Turner will pre- sent something good at the opera house: just what it will be will be announced later

CHAPTER ". A DESPERATE GAME.

" LIEUTENANT SOMMERS looked # around at the complete little # A workshopiQ amazement. Besides
 = the wireless outfit, he saw tools, models, sharps, a drawing table, lit tie workbench-everythi in fact, that it seemed to him a mechanical inventor would really need.
 "You use all these!' he exclaimed. 'Why, of coursev' she said. "This is my fun. I work up here on dark days, burg, you know"
 The man could not have controlled his astonishment He examined sev- eral of the models. They were on i'm provements in wireless telegraphy, va rious mechanical devices and on even the model of little gun.
 "Oh. I've patented them all!' ex. claimed Frances. T doa'e know that any of them amounts to much, but I patented them just the same. You see, you're not the only gun inventor, MT. Sommers." t
 'tThen the Sommers gun has to con- pete with the Frances Durant gun?" he asked quizzically.
 She shook her head, smiling.
 'No; I'll tell you a secret. wouldn't let them make gun of mine if I could patent it, but that is just little model of the Rhinestrom gun, which Edward has great faith in. Marsh made the model for me-"
 "Oh, the Rhinestrom gun!" said Som- ! mers, with lifted eyebrows. 'I've heard something of that around the

''Ther the NSon1naers g,t7, has to compete aoith the Frances Durdilt gtln7" works. Your man Marsh seems to have great faith in it. Who is this RhinestromY
 Frances shook her head.
 ''I don't know Think he must be some German. Edward just told me that we had bought the patents and controlled them. But that doesn't af- feet your gun any, does it?'
 Sommers looked up from the model he had been studying.
 Frankly he said, Eff this model is correct it won't affect my gun. The Sommers gun has the good points of this one and new principle which I expect will partly, revolutionize things for whoever manufactures it.
 'It all depends on the forging. If my gun is forged right and properly tempered, well"-he paused, then went on with a confident smile-'I don't want to brag, but honestly I am not afraid of any gun that ever was cast It will all be in the forging, and tomor- row will tell that. We'll put it through tomorrow night"
 Ohs AOPO SOcS tAIOuSh dll right" cried the girl. 'It must go through! It would be terrible to think of a failure.''
 "Yes,'' he said grimly, 'it would.''
 '1t would mean" she asked, "the blasting of your hope?'' -.--~.-..
 He shrugged his shoulders.
 "That would be a minor considera- tion. sIt would mean death to the men who are handling the gun and court martial and disgrace for me. You see why I'm interested"
 "But there's no chance of failure,'' she exclaimed, her eyes big with alarm.
 Sommers laughed.
 "Not of the Durant works, think, D he said. That's why was glad when the government decided to have a gun cast here. Your fathers plant there has a reputation for the highest class, most careful work, SC I feel safe, even if you do own patents on the Rhine strom gun.''
 You'll be here for the forging?" she asked.
 "Of course," he replied. "I'll be down in the works experimenting as much as I can.''
 "And I,'' murmured the girl, half to herself. twill be up here waiting ea- gerly5 anxiously, watching for you to come with the news that everything has gone right Oh. what pity it is that you should invent this gun and not get anything for your brains and your laborr

he got to Durant.
 T don't want to talk to you" ex- claimed the inventor when he entered and found it was Pinckney and not Durant he had been shown in to see. q don't want any more of your soft talk. You talk and promise, but you don't do anything. ought to have known better than to trust you the other day when you fooled me down at the works with all that stuff about giving me a chance. I felt in my heart you weren't going to do it; but, like fool, trusted you, and this is what I get for it. You haven't made any contract. You haven't done any thing but run ahead and perfect the patents, and now I am entirely at your mercy. I'm going to fool you. I'm going to put it up to the old man. He's on the level anyhow. He'll give me a chance and a little reputation even if he doesn't give me the money. I'm going to see him, I tell you. Pm going to stay here till I do."
 The voice of the man had risen until he was fairly shouting at the general manager.
 Don't yell like that" protested Pinckney.
 q don't wonder you want me to keep quiet" sneered the inventor. "You ought to want me to keep quiet"
 Pinckney had regained his wits now. He saw it was the time for diplomacy, not force, SO he put on his blandest, most inratiating smile.
 'Now, listen to me, Marsh" he pleaded. You're up in the air with this because you've got an entirely wrong idea of me. Ever since that accident you've acted as if were to blame.'
 q don't want to talk about that" exclaimed the inventor. "You can't sidetrack me with any talk like that"
 "But I want you to get square deal,'' protested Pinckney. "Pm go- ing to see that you do.'
 Marsh looked at him with sheer.
 "Youecall it square deal to give the credit for all my work to anotherY'
 "Of course it wouldn't bev' ex- claimed tine manager That's just it. I'm going to put it through for you if you'll only give me chance"
 '.After what you said the other day" SneereO tQe ClQST.
 And I've done it," snapped Pinck- ney.
 You've done it?'
 The general manager nodded.
 Exactly" he said. "The contract between Wilhelm Rhinestrom and the Durant steel works has been drawn up, signed by Rhincs:rom and by me for the Durant steel works, but only waits for the approval of MT. Durant, and I'll get that tonight"
 "Rhinestrom signed < it!' gasped Marsh. How could Rb;ncstrom sign it when there isn't any Rh:nestrom?"
 Pinckney looked at him pityingly.
 .s'What do you care who signed it for Rhinestrom if you get the moneyT' he said. ''The, name on the contract is Wilhelm Rhinestrom.'
 "You forged that namer' gasped Marsh
 "Shut upv' snapped the other Don't be fool! You can't forge a mans name if the man doesn't exist. Now take your money and be satisfied Leave it to me. I'm your friend. I'm proving myself your friend, and here you go ahead and kick up fuss and risk the whole thing. I've taken little risk myself to put this thing through and give you a square deal, and this is what you do in the way of gratitude Now, aren't you ashamed of yourself :'
