old Atlantic < Pacific railroad LEFT
Albuquerque this morning for his old
nome at Columbus. Ohio, with view
to remaining there.
For the past number of years Judge
Flynn has conducted a small clothing
store at Winslow, Ariz., and as police
Judge meted out justice to wronS-
doors of that place. He sold his store
recently and last year he refused to
run for justice of the peace any more
So finding himself entirely out of em-
ployment, he decided TO go back to
the Buckeye state
Judge Flynn was one of the best
known men of northern Arizona.
There is not an old time railroad man
on the Santa Fe coast lines who does
not know him The oldest residents
of Albuquerque Will remember
charlie Flynn as master mechanic at
the local shops. He came here when
the railroad was built. Mrs. Flynn
was the first American bride to come
t. Albuquerque. When the A. x +.
built shops at Coolidge, \. M about
100 miles west of here Master Mech
anic Flynn had his office there. That
was over twenty years ago. Very few
people in albuquerque knew there
ever was such place as Coolidge II
ned one day and was never re-
built. A few old shacks near the
continental divide are all that is left
to mark the place. After fifteen years
Of railroading, Judge Flynn opened
his little store at Winslow, While
here he and Mrs. Flynn were su' Ste
of her two sisters, Mrs. ]. l., Bell and

tween the Santa Catalina river, which
carried the flood, and the steel works,
which are reported greatly damaged,
and he fears that this house was
among the buildings wrecked. His
father and sisters were in a sHmmer
resort, seventy-hve miles distant from
the city, but he has cousins and any
number of more distant relations
there.
According to DIR. Oshna, Monterey
is wedged between the mountains and
is on both sides of the Santa Catalina
river. This river is 450 miles long
and drains the water from the west
side of a great range of mountains.
1t runs from west to east. 1t is dry
most of the year, and the present
food is the first great damage it has
done since 1881, when ii swept a
large part of the city away, but no one
was drowned at that time. All had
been warned in time to make their
escape.
DIR. Osuna says that only the poorer
residents of the city lived along the
river and in the lowlands, though a
high flood would carry it to the bet
ter part of the city. There Were
waves fifty feet high in the flood OF
1881, which he saw and great dam
age was done to property. The bet
ter buildings are built of stone. Only
the poorer ones are adobe. The
American district is in the northern
part of the city and well out of dam
ger. Monterey has a population OF
about 100000 people.
