Robert Louis Stevenson owed much of his inspiration to dreams. In one passage he attributed some of his in est work to the brownies" who ten anted his brain during moments of inconsistencies. The Strange Case of Dr. JeEyll and Mir. Hyde owes it's origin to a dream. ''I had long been trying to write a story on th!s sub ject," writes Stevenson, "to find 6 body, a vehicle, for that strong sense of mans double being which must at times come in upon and overwhelm the mind of every thinking creature = For two days I went about rack ing my brains for a plot of any sort. and on the second night dreamed the scene at the window. and scene aft erwardr split in two, il which Hyde. pursued for some crime, took the pow der and underwent the change in the presence of his pursuers.

RESERVOIR AI SAN CARLOS
 ASSURED
(Florence Blade.)


 The people of the Casa Grande val ley have cause to rejoice. The battle for the preservation of the San Carloo reservoir site has ended and the vic tory is ours. The news was fashea from Washington to Manager Sieboth of the canal company that the com missioner of the general land once had denied the application of the Ars- zona-Eastern railroad company for . 'r,ghtof-way through the San Carlos reservoir site. The decision will force the company to build on the high line Or stay out of the Giia canyon. It is not an anti-railroad decision as t inn poses no hardship upon the raiirus0 company. It will cost it but a trifie more to build on the high line than it. would to build on the low line, and. as heretofore stated, this small addi- t.onal cost will be paid back tenfold by the increased trafic the reclama- ton and development of th's valley will bring to the railroad.
 Delegate Cameron has been of great assistance to our forces in this fghf for justice and our people are duly grateful for the service he has ren- dered.
 | Now that the way has been made clear for the construction of the San Carlos reservoir it is up to the land | owners of this valley to get beh.Dd Messrs. Sligh & Clark in a spirit of friendliness and encouragement and lend all assistance within their power to further the accomplishment of this great reclamation enterprise. With out the San Carlos reservor we can not hope to permanently reclaim more than 25,500 acres of the matchIess land of this valley; with it. more than 100000 acres of this superb land can be made permanently productive. Do you want community of $500 people in this valley or community of 50.-- GOO souls here? If the former. he sn knocker: if the latter be booster be-
 hind Messrs. Sligh & Clark in their
 work of building the San Carlos and
 the canal system they are now laying out They have sufficient confidence . in the productive capabilities ot this } valley to risk several millions ot do8- : lars in providing it r.th an adeqIats
 storage and irrigation system. How much will you risk, Mir. Landowner. who have had an opportunity to de-
 monstrate, by actual experience, that - with plenty of water, no land on earth l will produce so great number and
 such variety of crops each year, as t will the land of this valley2 You wiH - certainly risk at least a portion of . your energy in encouraging and sup
 porting the efforts of the men who are putting in their money. will you not? You understand, of course. thai
 without a proper irrigation system, with certain water supply behind it, your land is practically valueless, ] while, upon the other hand, when pro
 vided with a certain water supply for irrigation it will soon be worth several hundred dollars per acre. But you cannot expect capitalists to step in and bring about this desired condition unless you meet them half way and volunteer your good will and hearty |, cooperation. Capital must be nursed and not nagged.

HAS BROKEN NECK
BUT He MAY LIVE
Operation Will Be Performed
On Lynn, Ind, Young
Man Today.
FALL WAS RESPONSIBLE
ALBERT KRAFT WAS IN TREE
GATHERING FRUIT WHEN HE
LOST HIS FooTlNG-cERvlcAL
vERTEsRAE BROKEN,

Having lived for more than a week
with a broken neck, Albert Kraft of
Lynn, twelve miles north of Richmond,
was to undergo an operation at St.
Vincent's hospital, Indianapolis today.
His neck is broken. He suffered 4
fracture of the cervical vertebrae in a
fall from tree and since that time
has been paralyzed. His condition is
extremely critical and surgeons are
skeptical as to the result of the Oper-
alton. His life will be saved IL possi-
BILE.
Kraft was high in a tree gathering
fruit when he lost his footing and fell
to the ground. striking in such a man
ner that the vertebrae in his neck were
separated and the spinal cord crushed
and bruised. He was given attention
Immediately. but there was no i'm
provement and it was finally decided
to send him to Indianapolis for an Op-
Grafton.
Nerves Of Stomach Saved.
Practically the only thing that
stands between Kraft and death is the
fact that the nerves of his face. heart
and stomach are not paralyzed. These
nerves come from brain centers and
the injured man is able to eat and di-
gest his food with little difficulty. The
remainder of his body is not however,
under his control. His arms and body
and legs are paralyzed and he can not
move them in any direction. Attend
ants are needed to turn him in bed
and care for all his wants.
Little Information about the case
could be obtained from the hospital
and it is not known just what hopes
are entertained for Kraft's life. 1t is
certain that the spinal cord is not sep
arted. but how badly it is crushed can
not be told. Surgeons will adjust the
bones of his neck in the hopes that
the spinal cord will return to its nor
NAL condition and the paralysis will be
overcome.
