RESCUE OF TWO BOYS
FROM ANGRY RIVER
They Owe Their Lives to Robert Ross,
Who Pulled Them Out of the
Turbulent Salt.

Two Mexican boys capsiZed from a
buggy into the Salt river yesterday
afternoon were rescued by Robert Ross,
who lives on the corner of Third and
Adams streets.
The two little fellows were driving
to Tempe in a single buggy. Coming
to the Salt river they hesitated about
fording it. but finally found courage
and urged the horse into the water
They got along nicely until about two
thirds across, where the flood hid a
bed of quicksand The horse stopped
and commenced slowly to sink. The
buggy followed the example and cap
sized. placing the boys in a dangerous
predicament.
The boys were too small to swim
and the water too deep to wade. even
if the Cuicksand had not been under
meath. Screams for help brought Bob
Ross, who, coming to the bank of the
river, without a moments hesitation
plunged into the river and arrived to
help the boys none too soon. The
hardest task was to arouse the dis
heartened horse but this was finally
done and soon both boys and horse
were on their way home. They were
almost too young to really appreciate
the close call they had.

WOMEN LOSE THEIR YOUTH.

An observing woman at an annual picnic in England noticed that the women of the working classes in attendance were old at 35, and few of these women who had reached that age had their own teeth. With- out teeth the health cannot be good, and this may have something to do with the old look on the faces of the women. which makes it good argu- ment in favor of compulsory dentis- try in the schools.

She was very pretty girl clad in diaphanous summer gown. She was going to the beach and she didn't care who knew it, for she car ried her bathing suit in most primitive fashion. It was simply inclosed in a bath towel, and carried by a narrow strap. Shoes, stockings, powder, comb, brush, hairpins and other feminine necessities were not in evidence. Perhaps she dispensed with them. Anyway, she reused the curiosity of a car full of people.
