river valley this plain would change
into sand dunes, battling and confus-

pressed forward, it must be daylight
long before they could hope to reach
these, and this would give him oppor-
tunity to spy out some familiar land
mark which would guide them to the
ford. Meanwhile, he must head as di-
rectly north as possible. trusting the
horses to find footing.
1t was plains instinct, or rather
long training in the open, which en-
abled him to retain any true sense OF
direction, for beyond the narrow
fringe of cottonwoods along the
stream, nothing was visible, the eyes

WHAT THEY THOUGHT OF HIM
Remark by NO Means Complimentary
Made by Constituent Of Repre-
sentative Underwood.

Representative Underwood, chair
man of the ways and means commit
tee in congress, represents what is
known as manufacturing district, !"
because it contains all the factories
and smelters in and about Birming-
ham, Ala. But he also has among his
constituents lot Of farmers-of which
fact he is now PAINFULLY aware.
He drove out to a settlement in
Bibb county one afternoon to persuade
the farmers they ought to vote for
him. AS he stepped up to the porch
of little store an old man rushed up
to him with the request:
Please sign this paper. It's a petit
ion to Congressman Underwood to
have a young lady postmistress here"
I'D be glad to sign it" said Under
wood politely; "but as I'm not resi-
dent of this community, my name
wouldn't help you"
'fOh, yes, it would" the old farmer
assured him. Were getting every
body to sign it, strangers and all.
Go ahead and put your name down!
That fool congressman will never
know the difference!"-The Sunday
Magazine.

ting through the night, very part Of
that grim desolation surrounding
them. No one of the three felt like
speaking; the gloomy, brooding des-
ert oppressed them, their vagrant
thoughts assuming the tinge of their
surroundings; their hope centered on
escape. Keith rode, grasping the rein
of the woman's horse in his left hand,
and bending low in vain effort at pick
ing path. He had nothing to aim
toward, yet sturdy confidence in his
expert plainscraft yielded him suffi-
cient sense of direction He had noted
the bark of the cottonwoods, the direc-
ton of the wind, and steered a course
accordingly straight northward, alert
to avert any variation.
The girl rode easily, although in a
mans saddle, the stirrups much too
long. Keith glanced aside with swift
approval at the erectness with which
she sat, the loosened rein in her hand.
the slight swaying of her form. He
could appreciate horsemanship, and
the easy manner In which she rode
relieved him of one anxiety. It even
caused him to break the silence.

TRAINING IN GOOD MANNERS
Begin When Boy Is Young, and Po-
iiteness Is Bound to Become
Second Nature.

Long before / had any sons OF my
own l made up my mind that, If |
ever had the training of boy, |
derstand anything. to teach him the
small things that constitute good man.
ners So many boys / have known.
and men, too, who at heart are good
and kind and really refined. yet lack
so large part OF the little courtesies
that it is hard to believe they have
been well brought up. In most cases
it is the fault of the mother. She
feels that it is much more important
to form the character Of little boy,
that his manners can wait till he is
older. The result is that one sees
boys and men who rarely forget to be
polite outside of their homes, and yet
seem to think 1t unnecessary to treat
their own mother in the same way.
My view is that there is no need
to neglect the character because you
pay attention to the manners. l think
/ have succeeded AS soon as my first
little boy wore trousers I taught him
tina he must take of his hat as soon
as he came into the house or when a
lady spoke to him in the street. That
he must rise from his chair when /
came at the dining table, must never
walk out of the room before a lady,
and all the other little polite ways we
like to see in men. 1t has never been
any trouble to keep him up to these
things; he learned SO young that it
soon became second nature.-HarperS
Bazaar.

Through the Night Shadows.

Keith had very little to guide him.
as ne could not determine whether
this mysterious cabin on the Salt Fork
lay to east or west of the usual cattle
trail leading down to the Canadian.

the general trend of the country lying
between the smaller stream and the
valley of the Arkansas would be SINH

acquainted It was merely q Wild

OF food and the changes that can be
made in health by some knowledge on
that line. She says:

CLARENCE HAYOOCK
 SUPPLIES A STRAW
Says That Phoenix Business Has Reached Point Where 1t Needs
 Additional Looking After.

Another straw which shows which way the business wind is blowing here is the fact that Clarence Hay dock, travelling general agent of the Illinois Central railway line, at Los Angeles. was in the city a couple of days the past week, looking for business.
 Whether he found it or not is sOme- thing the newspapers are not privi- legged to say; but they can say, on his authority, that, whereas he has been visiting Phoenix and Arizona maybe once in six months during the seven or eight years that he has been representing his company in Southern California and in Arizona. he gave it out while here that the business outlook was such that he would feel compelled hereafter by business considerations to visit Phoe- nix and the Salt River valley at least once a month in order to feel that he was not letting anything get away in this field.

MORMONS DECLARE II CASE OF BLACKMAIl
Eastern Man Wants s1o0000 For Suppression of Alleged Scenes in
 Salt Lake Temple.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Sept 1G. The first presidency of the Nor mon church has exposed a scheme of blackmail to the church authorities by the sale for exhibition of a series of photographs of alleged interior scenes in the Mormon temple, which no one is allowed to enter unless a devout member of the church. In letter received from New York from a former resident of this city were seven photographs which the writer offered the first presidency for $1OO.OOO. Replying. the first presi- dency wrote that he did not desire to enter into negotiations with thieves and blackmailers.
 Church authorities stated that the photographs were probably obtained recently when the temple was be- ing cleaned. Church leaders say they do not care whether the photographs are published or not, adding, by way of explanation that 800 gentiles were allowed to. go through the temple just before the dedication.

Lives of Nine People are Snuffed Out When Dare devil Automobile Driver Plunges Into Crowd at the Track.
RACES STOPPED
 BUT SHORT TIME
Terrible Accident Happens At State Fair At Syra- cuse, N. Y., Just a Few Minutes After President Had Gone.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. 1G-Nine persons are known to be dead and fourteen hurt, several of them fatally, as the result of an accident today in the fifty mile automobile race at the state fair.
 A Knox car, driven by Leo Oldfield. crashed through a fence on the turn just past the grandstand and pioughed some distance through the crowd. Old field was not seriously injured The blowing out of a tire caused the acci- dent. All the dead are New York state residents.
 The accident happened on the 47th mile. Oldfield and Ralph DePalma were running neck and neck. It was seen Oldfield had a bad tire at the 27th mile. but he did not stop for re- pairs as he thought he could hold the race out. At the time of the blow out the two racers took the turn at frightful speed. The spectators were in a frenzy of enthusiasm. Then came ei Ni d0li iltdAh tl4 ONtE Allt llEltls lOl- lowed by screams of women. children and men and an effort was made by Syracuseans to stop the race but star ter Fred Wagner refused and started the race again within five minutes af- ter the track was cleared.
 The accident happened but a short time after President Taft left the fair grounds. Before leaving. the president took a spin around the track in a rac- ing auto. The track was wet down to lay the dust. After the president left. drivers protested that this made the track dangerous and DePalma and Burman refused to race. After a short delay. however the track dried and the race started Wetting had nothing to do with the accident.
 Bob Durham in his Blitzen Benz had an accident also. In trying for the world speed record, his motor exploded nearly in, front of the grand stand but with rare skill Burman stopped the ear. and was not hurt.
 Oldfield was taken to a hospital. where tonight it was said his injur- ies are slight. He is under guard of an officer and as soon as he recOv- CTS he will be arrested.
