Earthquake

A slight shock cf 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 hurrylng from their
homes to see what was going
on. A few people were aw a.sencei
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 in the
Elks Hall and they got the full
effect of the shock While some of
them were a trif1e 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.

THE SALM RIVER PROJECT

1t is an interesting fact that the
Tonto Basin, back of the Roose-
welt Dam, was the home of
Geronimo and his bloodthirsty
Apaches 1t was not very many
years ago when aa-awhite man
who ventured into that section
cook his life in his hands: and he
was lucky if he got out without
being scalped. But new era has
come to Arizona since the days
when General Crook hunted the
willy Apache chief in the Tonto
Basin and the mountains that
hem it in. Now there is hardly
an Indian to be found there and
the few who do remain are no
more ola menance than the Eng
lish sparrows that add their
chatter to the clatter of the &C.
ment mill. And here the Apaches
stronghold is a stronghold for
water that will make fruitful an
that the red men never

STORY BY AN ARIZONA WOMEN

Mrs w. NJ Lorraine Of Phoe-
nix, the well k"own Arizona
writer appears to be making
great strides in the literary
world In the October number
of the Vest Coast Magazine
which has just been received, we
read Tie first 1nstallment of a
serial story from h>r pen.
Judging from the first few
chapters, which appear in that
number we think that the story
will certainly prove fascinating,
and considerably advance Mrs
Loraine's literary fame The
story should be read with inter
est by all Arizona people, be
cause Mrs Lorraine is an Arizona
writer, and also because the
scene is laid in this state.
1t is called "Margot"; and is
full of interest and at times Is
tense with dramatic sensations
There is plenty of local color i'll

Forest Fire Protec.
ton Among Pri-
vate Owners

Washington, September %
One OF the lessons which-wiillll i
finally be drawn from the irving
experience or the present forest
fire season, In the belief oil the
officials of the U S. Department
of Agriculture, IS the need of
wider organization among pri-
vate owners of timber to safe
guard their holdings
Il is pointed out that already
in the Northwest, both on the
Pacific Coast and in Montana
and Idaho. tlmberland owners
have formed themselves INTO as
sociations which assess the men,
beIs on an acreage basis and
thus meet the cost of maintain.
ing a regular patrol and fire.
fighting organization Only by
getting together can private
owners usually assure themselves
prott ction, for fire is no respec-
ter Of boundry lines and the man
who undertakes to keep it out
OF his own timber will want it
kept out of his neighbours too.
Whel ever possible the govern
mr1lt S tnrcsr officers cooperate
with the force put IN the field by
the associations, SO they are
handled practically as a unit in
fighting the common enemy.
This coo operation is advanta-
geous TO both sides. Protection
of the National Forests necess-
arily carries with it a good deal
OF protection of adjoining or in
t,lior h ll.ngs If the private
owners would everywhere shoul

ing for the protection of private
timber IN order to protect its

extending from here to the
Grand canyon of the Colorado
river tonight stands practically
depopulated because of earth
quakes and rumlings, which, be-
ginning Saturday or steadily in
creasing in magnitude and vio-

Indians, of whom there are
many in the region, fled when
the quakes began, terrified by
sinister imports which they i'm
agined to be contained in the
cracking of the solid ground,

1ty OF the now burned out crat-

fifty IN the region, hastened their
flight. The whites remained un-

refugees to reach Fla gstaff, re-
ported that his adobe house has

that lava stones weighing many

Capture of Steele
and Stweart.

AAOAO' CCN ILLS W(Sh WdS lIIG
basis for the operations of the
Gila County Sheriffs posse in
their one weeks chase ofover one
hundred and fifty miles across
country after two murderers, the
clin1ax of which was reached at
Adamana on last Thursday
right whea the fugitives were
captured.
At about nine o'clock in the
evening of the 18th instant
Stewart and Steele, two ex-
soldiers who had formerly been
stationed at Fort Apache, but
who were then in charge of
hog ranch belonging to man
named Tuttle, Murdered in cold
blood two young citizens of
Globe, who were then hunting
in the White Mountains. Rob
berry was undoubtedly the motive
although the prisoners claim self
defense, but their fight seems to
give lie to that plea. Word reach.
ed Globe, and just twenty-four
hours later the Sheritt's posse
reached the scene of the crime in
an automobile and then the real
chase began in earnest Where
ever horses could be procured
the posse searched the country
with the help of Indian trailers,
while the machine went ahead
The murderers were compelled
to abandon their horses after
riding them down, leaving them
near Cooley's ranch, and then
struck across country on foot,
having been seen at Showlow,
Shumway, and Snowflake, where
they went in quest of food. They
then started for the railroad
'iFees-cili,is, - : iist1t1stIisi at 11ine
O'Clock last Thursday night when
they were surprised by Sheriff
Thompson of ella county who
was at that time at the railroad
station. The fugitives had seen
the automobile at various points
and knew they were being
bounded. They had seen the ma
chine go to Adamana that day
and return to Holbrook, so sup
posed that no officers were there.
and intended procuring food as
they had been without it for two
days. They were so taken by
surprise that they did not have
time to think of lighting. During
the last few days of the chase
the posse were almost sure they
were on the right trail and were
certain that capture would come
at the time it did.
. his was ole OF the most ex-
citing man hunting chase that
has cycr been pulled off in the
territory, and the fact that an
automobile was the main feature
of the chase lends color to the
episode. The machine, which is a
thirty horse power Cadalliac,
traversed roads and did cross
country stunts over places where
only horses and wagons had
gone before and were thought
impossible for an automobile.
The points where the machine
went will be of interest to per-
sons knowing the country. From
Globe to Fort Apache by the way
of Rice, thence to Cooley's Ranch
and from there to the Mineral,
from the latter point to COncho
and st. Johns, doubling back to
Concho and then to Hunt and
Woodruff, then to Snowflake,
and from there to Holbrook.
From here they went to Wood
ruff, cut across country to Aztec
and went to Adamana, from
which place they made couple
of trips back and forth.
The machine returned to Globe
Saturday with part OF the party,
while the Sheriff and the prison
erS took th4 tram ODirU hV the
