seventy-five hours of constant travel

Judge Tweed. like myself, was anX-
ious that we go through the Pima
villages before or about sunrise. We
had both heard of the habit of those
people of watching for the coming of
the sun in the morning, as it Is a ira
dition among them, that Montezuma,
in some lost age of which they have
no record, promised his followers 10
one day re-appear on the earth. and
that he would come with the rising
sun. 1t seems that story of Montez-
una is o unlike that which the fol-
lowers of Jesus Christ believe con-
corning him, as it is written in the
21st Chapter of the Gospel of st.
Luke:
And there shall be signs in the
sun, and in the moon. and in the
stars; and upon the earth distress of
nations. with p%erplexity: the sea and
the waves roaring. And then shall
they see the son Of man coming in a

The driver of the stage was willing
to accommodate us. and SO managed
his progress that we arrived among
the cone-shaped huts of the village
only a few moments before the sun
showed itself above the tops of the
mountains to the east. We had time
TO observe that on the roof of the
nuts or houses in our immediate Vi
cinity there was one or two, never
more, elderly people, sitting cross
legged with their faces turned TO the
east, immoyable and silent, their eyes
fixed on the line of the horizon where
the sun would shortly appear, and as

woman ON the top of one of the huts
keeping that vigil OF the ages, alone.
THAT woman said the driver. lis a
widow. Her husband is dead, and she
believes he will come back with the
god of her people, and she will see
him some morning at sunrise
There was no leyity in the speech
of the driver, nor anything approach
ing ridicule or a disposition to make
light of the sorrowful deyotions of
that poor ignorant deyotee of a
faith that had been the inspiration
of her people through many weary
centuries, and will continue TO be,
till they disappear from the earth
forever.
All this VAS new and strange to
me, though | had heard of the GER

during the night and today II Is prac-

Practically all OF the population Of
the town. with assistance from nearby
cities. has been fighting the blaze
without interruption.
The loss occasloned by the destruc-
ton OF the ruins is estimated at mil

treasure buried In the shattered
houses, which before the fire might
have been recovered, but which are
new a total loss The origin OF the
fire has not yet been determined.

He was what the world calls an old
man when he first settled in Highland,
having reached his sixtieth milestone.
Yet despite his great age, until few
years ago he was as hale and hearty
an old gentleman as could be found
anywhere, walking downtown TO the
postoffice almost daily without the aid
OF a cane, and reading the newspapers
without the aid OF spectacles.
Eighty-four years ago he cast his
first ballot for Henry Clay. who was
then running for president. Last fall
he insisted on being taken down to
the voting booth In his wheel chair
so that he could cast his ballot.

PITTSBURG, June 29.-Pittsburg's
street car famine lasted just so hours.
Final settlement of all differences
between the Pittsburg Railways COM
pany and the striking motormen and
conductors was effected at 1915 last
night, following a conference lasting
practically all day between Mayor
William A. Magee and represent atives
of the disputing factions.
At O'clock this morning every car
on the entire system started running,
after q complete tie-up OF two days.
Their Is no doubt but that the strik-
ing employees won their fight. Prac-
tically the only concession made by
the strikers was the agreement to
leave to arbitration the final decision
/ in the case OF Ashford, the motorman
who was discharged for drinking while

other was made by the traction off,

by the men was the agreement Of the

officials of the railway company were

peace Notwithstanding the optimism
displayed by Mayor Mcgee and the
strikers conferees. SO that the final
announcement of a settlement came
almost as complete surprise.
The task of notifying the strikers In
time to get crews to man the cars at :
o'clock this morning fell to the Of

task. Few of the men themselves had

DROWNING ACCIDENT
BRINGS NEEDED REFORM
July In Killarney Tragerdy Recon-.
mends that All Boats Be
| Strictly Inspected.

KILLARNEY, June 29.-Despite the
verdict OF the coroner'e jury that the
boating disaster In which several
American and English tourists lost
their lives was the fault OF no one,
the recommendation OF the jury that
all such boats be strictly inspected has
provoked the suspicion that the jurors
considered some evidences OF careless
ness.
1t was indicated during the inquest
that the boat was IA years old and
been condemned three years ago, hut
was subsequently overhauled and
again placed in service. One Of the
boatmen, Gleason, was over 70 years
old and partly paralyzed.
Another. Lynch, was known as
common drunkard, although II VICE
found that at the time of the accident
he was sober.
The third boatman, Leary. said tina:
at the time n competent crew could
have avoided the accident, although he
later testified the storm made IT un-
avoidable.
