Elk to Craze in
 Arizona Mountains

In order to preserve the magnifi- cent herds of elk and to reduce to a minimum the heavy losses that annu- ally occur in Wyoming through star 1ation, estimated to range from 10000 to 20,000 every winter the national government will try to remedy the fr-ightful decimation, by placing these k animals on the forest reserves of this lkpd other divisions of the union.
 An agent of the agricultural ie- Itartment is On his way to Prescott to investigate grazing conditions in that and the Mogolion mountain country where forest reserves are maintain2 !.
 The object is to relieve the winter grazing lands of the Jackson Hole country, in Wyoming, where it is es. timated that 50,000 elk congregate in their southern hegira where feed Is more abundant and where climatic conditions are milder than in the northern regions Last winter it was estimated that at least 15,000 elk Der ished from starvation, and it is he lieved that this year that number will be doubled, owing to the country be- ing taken up by homestead locations at an increased late over the prev ious years.
 The plan is to distribute at lea t 5000 elk throughout the northern part of Arizona, and make the Camp Wocd country, the Mogollon mountains and tthe Hassayampa country special points to be considered in their dis position.
 The plan is to begin grand round up when the first snow falls and the animals begin to congregatc at the old haunts.

Think Fuses Started
 Fire in Private Car
The Tucson Citizen says:

The Tucson Citizen says:
 Either spontaneous combustion or the accidental firing of a bundle # fusees caused a fire which destroyed Superintendent J. D. Dyer's private car Tucson" at the east end of Amo,e a few days ago.
 Such was the finding of the board of inquiry which ended it's delibera- tions yesterday evening.
 The board was composed of Super intendent Dyer, Master Car Repairer E. M. Dickerman, Master Mechanic w. Peterson and two merchants of the city A. B. Armstrong and G. K. Smith, who were chosen as represent ative citizens to secure impartiall. " and in order that nothing might be hidden from the public. Superinten- dent Dyer stated.
 It was ascertained that in some manner undet1 1rmined a bundle of fusees had been left in a locker un. der the washstand i'll one of the state rooms of the private car. The smell of the fusees was noticeable after the car had been on fire, but whether the fnsees became accidentally ignited, or whether the flame originated in spon- taneous combustion is unknown.
 The trucks of the burned car have been brought in from Amole.

Southern Pacific to
 Care for Babies

Special provisions for taking care of babies and their mothers Upon ar rival at a railroad station is the lat est experiment that is beng u ie'1 by the Southern .acific conlranv at its Sacramento. California, depot. The idea is only an experiment and i. at the suggestion of one of the patrons Of the So'itaern Pacific c.r"I&ny.
 A special room has bee1 f,rnjshe d for tl.iS lurp0se just oft .he main waiting room of the depot anG two women a,ttndants, ractIcal n..rses, are always rlesent to lock out for the needs of the women trayete.s wh', have their infants with them.
 Coaches have been provided for the convenience of the mothers and a number of specially constructed cots for the babies have been installed.
 In this manner, when a woman traveller with baby is compelled to wait in the depot for her train or for those who should have met her at the station, she is provided with all the comforts she would have in her own home. The nurses in charge of the room prepare a bed for the baby and
 the mother and they are allowed 10 rest for as long a time as may be necessary. Apparatus is to be in> stalled to facilitate the heating of tte food for the infants and if t',e exper- iment proves to be a success it is possible that it nay be extended by the Southern Pacific company to all principal stations.
 The idea is not original with the of ficials. of the company. It was offered by a woman traveller and is being eX- perimented with as are all sugges- .tions that are offered in this way if they apreear to the company to be practicable.

He declared that a free ferry was Just as sensible as a free bridge and often said he hoped to live to see the day when vehicles would be provided for the public free of cost both on land and on water.

ORGANIZATION OF THE OWLS
The Order Makes the Brotherhood of Man vrile Living
 Reality
Reality

 The Owls are an order that from the beginning were organized with the de- terminal purpose of showing the world that the brotherhood of man Is not in1- possible and that good Samaratins are still among us.
 The Owls get the very best out of life by making it brighter and smoothing over the rough places where some brother has stumbled and better, still, by forgetting his fall.
 They are outgrowth of the best, the result of the evolution of hearts. That's the Order of Owls. VI None are in potterss fields. None have ever trod the desolate path that leads to a poorhouse. None are hungry. Your past belongs to you, no matter what 1t Is.
 To sincerely forgvel wou must forget what you forgave
 This fs< the keystone of the Owls creed whichsshas a beautiful ritual bus
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-04-11

no religious observances Nothing in the ritual is offensive to any mans re- ligion or irreligion.
 None of them claim to be saints, but when a cry for help is heard, they re- spond at once.
 It is their duty.
 Wherever they gather, they meet with confidence in each other, and hold in sacred bonds the honor of their women.
 They do this both as Owls and men for women have helped the Nests to grow m persuading their husbands and brothers and swcethearts to affiliate with an order that aids the living, buries the dead and assists the grieved ones left behind. As just appreciation of what the women have done for them one evening In every month will ke set apart for ladies' night, so they can meet Owls and find out for themselves what good fellows they are.
