Earthquake

A slight shock CT earthquake
was felt here last Friday evening
about nine O'Clock. The quake
was also felt as far west as King
man, east to Fort Wingate and
south to Jerome. While not very
severe it was quite enough to
have people hurrying from their
homes to see what was going
on. a few people were awakened
from their sleep while numerous
others on the streets and at home
failed to feel the jar at all. The
Ladies of the Maccabees were
having a social session i'll the
Elks Hall and they got the full
effect of the shock. While some of
them were a trifle alarmed there
was nothing in the nature of a
stampede. No harm was done at
Winslow, or at any other point
the shaking not being severe
enough to cause any damage.

HARRY CARES VIEW OF BATTLE OF
 THE CENTURY
Clever Writer of Los Angeles Times Staff Gives Picture
 of Fight at Reno
HJeH' Lay in Pose of "Dying Gladiator" When Counted Out-Carr Prefers Pork and Beans Fights of Uncle Tom Mccarey's Pavilion.

Reno, July Al have seen the bat tie of the century," But the next time the century has a battle would like to exchange my ticket for seat at one of Uncle Tom McCarey's pork and beans fights.
 The battle of the century" made me think of nothing so much as the butchery of an old bull.
 When, at the end of the fifteenth round, old Jeff lay, half through the ropes, smeared with blood, the light all gone out of his eyes, stricken and helpless, half expected him to give the moo" of the dying bull.
 When the moving pictures are shown I think you will see a strange thing-that Jeffries lay in the exact attitude of the statue, The Dying Gladiator" as he was being counted out, with this addition: The group will have another figure, a tigerish, fierce, black giant standing over the bleeding gladiator, his terrible fists waiting.
 felt sorry for poor, old Jeff; but most of my pity went out to the black man.
 Negro Shows Fear.
 never before saw any human soul so shaken with fear.
 When the fight began Johnson was so frightened that his face was a deathly, ashen gray. His lips were dry and his eyes were starting with a sort of mortified terror. He seemed utterly friendless.
 Out of that enormous pack of hu- manity saw only one face that turn ed up to him in sympathy. That was the drawn, tragically beautiful face of the white woman who is Johnson's wife.
 Staring out over Jeff's hairy shoul- ders, the negro's eyes rolled, white and appealingly, over the crowd. Once he looked down at the ringside and with pitiful smile spoke to one of the sporting reporters.
 Hello, Lou" he said, politely, with a sort of appeal in his voice.
 Lou responded by calling him a "skunk." I couldn't help thinking that Lou, in spite of his celebrity as newspaper writer, acted considerably like skunk" himself, in the circum- stances
 When Johnson began to get over his scare you could almost see something take fire in his soul.
 He began making a boob of the 1'hope of the white racet." He found that Jeffries could not hit him, but that he could hit Jeff whenever and wherever he liked, and he began lash ing in terrible left hooks They had the impact of war engines.
 Terrible Punishmente.
 Jeff's grinning face became serious; then anxious; then blood -smeared and swollen, and horrible, and at last, dull and sodden and maimed.
 A tiger, now, with the blood odor in its nostrils, Johnson mauled and beat the terribly wounded object, that had been the "undefeated whitet cham pion," into unconsciOusness.
 There will probably never be an- other great prize fight, so Reno may be said to have lived it's day. Tomor- row, it will have a bad headache. The next day it will take up its simple routine of being bad, little town, with rednecked hotel clerks and crooked gambling games.
 But for a day it was the most extra ordinary place on the civilized globe Harry c. Carr, in Los Angeles Times.

 stand as the highest exponent of all that is best in character and attain ments but must embody those char acteristics which distinguish a real man or woman.
 That he should be broad in culture tactful and sympathetic, goes with out saying; good common sense. sound judgement, originality and initiative are even more essential. He must be man of action able to see the op- portunity for a really great work and seize it.
 Lastly he should be a manly man, able to enter into educational coun- sells as a living force, command the respect of all who know him and refiecting wherever he may be the culture and progress which abound in Imperial County.
 Is the ideal too high? Perhaps but I have written not only from the standpoint of a school woman who has given years of her life to educa- tional work, but also as a citizen and mother who has always believed that the best is none too good for the children of the most splendid Republic in all history.
 At least we may approach the ideal, I am certeain. Let us study the aspi- rants for the office, and if there is one who measures up to the require ments more nearly than the others, let us put aside location politics. and personal feeling, and rally to his sup port with our influence and our votes, those politicians to keep hands of of the one office which is md ever should be sacred to the people.

OLD PIONEER PASSES AWAY

John Branson ,one of the early pio-
neers of this county, died on Monday
this week at Oslo, where he had made.
his home during the past few years.
Mr.. Branson was born in Norway,
March Z, 1845, was married in Sweden
to his wife who survives him, in 1873.
He came with his family to America
in 1881, settling in town of Viking, in
this county. Here he engaged in
farming until few years ago, when
he disposed of his farm, and moved
to Colorado. After a short stay in
that state, he returned to Minnesota
and engaged in the hotel business at
Oslo. For more than year his health
has been failing, and the death of a
daughter few weeks ago was also a.
severe shock to him. Three daugh-
ters, besides the wife, are the immedi-
ate mourners.
Deceased was highly respected in
life by. all who knew him. His funer-

Quoted by Rev. Bercher Of Warren.
Feace to the memory of the sturdy
pioneer who has gone to his reward.
