NARROW ESCAPE FROM
 DEATH OR INJURY
ACCIDENT AT PLANT OF WICK ENBURG ICE AND COLD
 STORAGE COMPANY.
Broken crosshead Endangers the Life
 O. Engineer Ed Surghnor.

What would have been a very seri- ous accident had it happened a half hour later was avoided early Sunday morning, and today Ed Surghnor en- gineer at the Wickenburg Ice and Cold Storage company. is busy receiving congratulations upon his lucky escape from injury.
 The ice plant, having reached the limit of its capacity, was shut down Saturday night. Early Sunday morn ing steam was again started up, and Surshnor went to the rear of the plant to start the engine which runs the big air compressOrs. which in turn com presses the ammonia into gas which freezes the water into ice.
 Surghnor had no more than started the engine, and was standing directly in front of the cylinder head, when the crosshead of the engine broke down and Ee immediately shut off the steam.
 The escape from injury to himself. and very likely to the plant, lies in the fact that the crosshead at the time of its breakdown was moving toward the compressors in the opposite direc- tion of the cylinder, and the engine, being just started. was running at a very low rate of speed. When running at full speed the crcsshead is capable of ninety-siX revolutions a minute. Had it been running at this terrific speed, and had it been moving toward the direction of the cylinder instead of the opposite direction. at the time of the breakdown it would have caused the heavy piston and cylinder head, which lies on the same level with the crosshead, to shoot out with a force that. no matter what it may have struck. would have been scattered into q hundred fragments
 As already stated, at the time of the accident the engineer was standing directly in front of the cylinder head

and he could not have avoided being struck by the flying metal.
 A telegram was immediately sent to the manufacturers in Los Angeles for new crosshead. and is expected today. As there was enough ice on hand at the time of the breakdown to supply the demands for a day qr two no shortage is expected.

LACK OF EVIDENCE
 IN THE TAYLOR CASE
The Result Will Probably Be No More Serious Than vagrancy
 Charge.

In the matter of the arrest of C. II. Taylor Sunday morning, it is likely the case will amount to nothing more serious than q vagrancy charge. Fay
 Tor was taken into custody in the be- lief that he had purposedly made the acquaintance of a little 5-year- old girl, probably with an improper mo- tive. and had inveigled her to the gas works some distance from her home. where he was engaged in conversation with her when arrested. He denied any improper motive and said the little girl first approached him and asked him for a nickel. Yesterday Taylor was transferred to the county jail and the relatives of the child ap- peared before District Attorney Bull lard and told their version of the incl dent. Though the story was q very plausible one and suggested the possi
 bility of the mans evil intention. he had in reality committed no offense and there was no evidence on which he could be convicted. He is still in jail, and it was suggested that he might be tried on a vagrancy charge.

THE COPPER QUEEN STORE
HEADGATES HAVE
 NOT SUFFERED

Concerning the wild rumors that have been circulating to the effect that the high water had damaged the headgates at the dam, the Yuma Ex- aminer states on the authority of A. R. Groenke. chief clerk of the United States reclamation service, at Laguna. that such apprehension is unfounded. MT. Groenke said:
 The headgates. being of massive concrete construction. have not sui. fered in the least. The action of the water. however. at the end of the con crete paving. scooped a place in the somewhat broken native rock, which has now been permanently repaired. The derrick sized granite rocks, with which the place has been filled, will make re-occuTrence of such an ero- sion impossible
 To substantiate what Mir. Groenke has to say in regard to the head gates, John Whitney, superintendent of construction of the reclamation service, on the California side of the Laguna dam, says the only damage done was in a temporary wall, which has really nothing to do with the
 gate proper, and was only intended for temporary use.
 The cement work Is on solid bed rock, and Mir. Whitney does not think it possible for it to be damaged by water for the next fifty years.

JOCKEY BECOMES SHOE HOUSE
 DRUMMER

TUCSON. May From a well known jockey through the eastern tracks and in Europe to leading travelling man for a prominent east ern shoe manufacturing company is the big jump which W. H. Mead. who arrived in Tucson yesterday morn ing from California, made several years ago
 He is in the city at present calling on the shoe trade. Mir. Mead has the southwestern territory and he is now making his annual visits to the diff ferent cities on his route.
 During his track career he rode for James R. Keene and for Foxall Keene in America and in Europe. He was the jockey on Dick Welles when this famous galloper in running race in Chicago in '95 established world $ record for mile in 1:3i l-4. This record has never been beaten in a race
 MT. Mead has two silver plates in his skull as reminders of a serious ac- cident which befell him while riding in New Orleans eight years ago. He was thrown from his horse and his skull was fractured. His physicians, having almost despaired of saving his life, decided as last result to trepaH his skull in two places. This delicate operation proved entirely successful and Mead recovered his health.
 He retired from the track shortly afterwards and is now successful shoe drummer. He is only five feet four inches in height and weighs but 106 pounds.

Hon. Bo. J. Whitesides arrived Tn the city this morning and will re- main for a day or so visiting with friends and incidentally letting the merchants have few of the famous Las Dos Naciones cigars.
 MT. Whitesides was seargent at arms of the council at the sessions of the twenty-fifth legislature and president of the immortal third house. When asked about hings in general and how he managed to escape the Phoenix investigators" in particular. MT. Whitesides said:
 Just up from the southland and on the way I fortified myself with the great and famous waters of the Has sayampa. I was afraid that Phoenix grand might have done me some harm so 1 drank at least barrel of good water at Wickenburg, and can now defend our honest Arizona legis- lators from the rotten attacks of the brain craZed fanatics of the Salt Riv- CT valley. Should 1t happen that it would be my good fortune to attend the next legislature I assure you that it will not be good judgment on the part of those cranks to come within gun shot distance or the capitol. Any one who impugns the character of Hon. Bill Morgan of Navajo, Kean St. Charles of Mohave, or Fred Sutter of Cochise, don't go for me.
 Have just come from a business trip to Wenden,. Bouse and Parker. They are all bright, interesting towns and the people of each town are san guine of brilliant futures. Big stacks of ore are displayed at every station on the A. and c. railway and it cer- tainly is wonderful mineral coun- try. Dennis Burke. member of the twenty-fourth legislature. and prior sessions. too. has in course of erec- ton and nearly completed. at the town of Bouse an elegant, modern up to date. thirty-seven room hotel. When finished it will be a great or nament to the mining town of Rouse.
 The only subject talked of in all of the places I visited is mines and mining. New strikes are reported daily and the coming winter will be scene of great activity. They are all boomers and boosters, too, and the best of good feeling prevails among them."

ID ORGANIZE GOOD : ROADS ASSOCIATION

The organization Of territorial good roads association which will later become a member of the nation al good roads association will be un- dertaken in a short time. There are number of good roads associations working locally in the various coun- ties for better highways in Arizona but the advocates of a territorial body believe that results can be accom- plished sooner were these organiza tions banded together and working along definite plan.
 The proposal to build an automo- bile road from the Grand Canyon by Flagstaff. Montezuma Wells, Prescott. Phoenix. etc. to Naco has taken deep root and can be carried out under the popular wave of enthusiasm within the next two years if united action is secured. The county road money, to- gether with that available from the territorial fund. will be sufficient to grade up and build culverts for the highway designated. The board Of control can under the new law levy 25 cents on the s100 in all counties through which the road passes. other counties will pay five cents.
 ltIfitOlidi E<HSiDttI GlEduu- "Hti asked concerning a territorial organ ization. said that he was heartily in favor of the movement and would be glad to cooperate with such a body when properly organized. Mir. Girand believes that this highway across Arizona can be built during the next two years if the county road super intendents join in and improve the roads designated by the board of con. trol as territorial roads.
 A territorial good roads convention is proposed to be held at Phoenix when delegates from the different county or local associations and com. merciai bodies would perfect the or. ganization of an Arizona good roads association. Application would be made for membership in the national organization, so that the benefit oi the experience in other states and general working plans cohid be avail able. and to work in the future for a transcontinental highway passing through the scenic regions of Ari Zona. Such a road is contemplated by the northern route to Seattle.
