When darkest clouds obscure my way.

wave

Because my faith is oh so staunch
and firm
And can lean upon the strong, strong
arm
When He is near.
When lightnings flash and thunders
roar
And all seems plunged in darkest
gloom
I cannot fear,
Because walk by faith through dark
est night,
And darkness TO me is the same as
light
For He is near.
When sorrow comes TO me and all is
dark.
And keenest anguish rends my aching
heart
There is no fear.
For well ] know the hand that sent
the blow

gently through.
He is so near.
Into each life know some rain must
fall
And darkness fall around Il like a pail
Then do not fear.
Can you not hear His voice-"Fear not

His ear is open to the sparrow's cry
He's always near.
And when deaths waves are surgine

He'll lead me through cold Jordon's

His grace sufficient is-and that's

FAMILY REUNION IN
Los ANGELES HOME
A Story in Which J. J. Hardwick is
the Central Figure

A very interesting story is pub
lished in the Los Angeles Times, OF
"A family reunion held by j. j. Hard
wick and a number of his recently
found relatives, at his home in that
city. 1t is of local interest from
the fact that Mr. Hardwick has liv-
ed in Phoenix more or less until
within the last five years, is well
known all over Arizona and is a
large property owner here now. The
story is herewith reproduced:
There was happy reunion OF
long separated brothers at the home
OF j. j. Hardwick. No. 6l9 Orange
street, yesterday, when a number OF
children, two brothers and two sis
tiers of Mr. Hardwick, made the ac-
quaintance Of his wife. two sons and
four daughters. whom they hereto
fore had not known.
Thirty nine years ago, when Hard
wick, II years old, was living with
his parents at Quincy. H.. he got
the western fever, and without con-
sulting them he set out To carve his
fortune. Nothing further was heard
Of him, and all efforts To get trace
of him failed.
"On his part. he did not write
home. probably from fear of being
compelled 10 return. until finally he
lost track of the family When lac
finally did write, the brothers and
sisters had married and scattered
and he was never able To find them
"Hardwick first went To jerome
Ariz, working as miner most OF
the time. later going Ia Mexico and
on To South America. He had con
siderable success and returned Ia
Arizona. and from that time on fluc-
tuated between Arizona and his ac-
quired mine holdings in the far south
until five years ago. when he took zap
his residence in Los Angeles.
Last summer a nephew. a son Of
his brother. Thomas J. Hardwick
living AT Pullman. Wash. went on
business To Phoenix. and called at
the postoffice for mail He was told
that there was none for him. but that
there was mail for J. J. Hardwick
who had left Phoenix for Los An
geles five years ago
This gave him a clew that led Ia
the joyful reunion yesterday. Tele-
grams and letters passed between the
brothers until each was satisfied
that the other was indeed his broth
er
The brothers who arrived in this
city on Wednesday are Thomas f.
Hardwick of Pullman, and William
ID. Hardwick of NeZ Perez. Idaho
The sisters are Mrs. Barbara Sanders
of Pullman. and Mrs. Emily Carrot of
Meadow Lake. Wash.
Mr. Hardwick, who is now SO
years Of age. was married in Mexico
at about % years of age. His first
''windfall' came when he was a youth
Of II years. when he sold a mining
claim for $4,000 After that ne
floated on the tide of prosperity. and
now has much property in this city
and elsewhere"

Scientists and physicians have been
appalled, at the rapid increase in the
death rate from acute respiratory dis
eases. especially in the large cities.
Statistics from cities, large and
small. showing a steady yearly increase
in the prevalence and fatality of grip
and pneumonia, have forced these dis
eases to the front as demanding an i'm
mediate and sure preventive.
Grip and pneumonia attack the sys-
TEN quickly and relentlessly- They are
especially dangerous at this season of
the year when exposure to sudden and
severe changes of weather and atmos-
pGeric conditions is frequent They are
sure to attack the system run down
from worry. over work or exposure.
For more than fifty years Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey has been recog-
nized as "A wonderful remedy in the

The satchel was found yesterday

finder After it had been opened
and that precious something therein
had been longingly and lovingly ad-
mired. il was agreed that the owner
should be given his property just as
soon as he called and correctly enum-
Grated the contents.
This plan was strenuously OBJ
iected to by McElroy. but he was
overruled. The Evergreen booster
said that if anyone should find the
treasure of Captain Kidd he would
not hunt up Kids heirs but would
make use OF the cash himself The
contents OF the satchel belonged
rightfully To the finder but since he
had gone they should be divided
equally among those present.
Jim Griffin says that dozen times
during the day he caught McElroy
trying to swipe that satchel and
steal away into the back room with

up a man who was said to have said
that if he had any money and his
business affairs would permit him to
stay i'm Phoenix and his wife wasn't
dead and if he didn't prefer West

COTTON CROP WILL
 BREAK ALL RECORDS
Crop Which Gave Indications of Failure Will Turn Out a
 Bumper Crop.
FINAL CONDITION REPORT
Some States Show Loss in Per centage for the Year, While
 Others Show Gain.

Washington.-The cotton crop of the growing season of 1911, which ear ly in the year gave indications that 1t would be one of the largest In the history of the industry, will be ap- proximate1y 13,86S,337 bales of 300 pounds, or about 100000 bales more than the record year of 1904. This was indicated by the final condition report of the department of agricul- ture, which showed the crop to be I'll per cent of normal on Septem- Der %.
 While there were declines in the condition in most states, there was an improvement of 2 per cent in Texas and 1 per cent in North Caro- lina
 With an indicated yield of 1,0s5 pounds to the acre, as unofficially es- timated from condition figures, and the greatest planted area on record 35,040,000 acres-the 1911 crop un- doubtedly will be the biggest on rec ord.
 Cotton this year early gave indica- tions that it would be bumper crop, but during August the decline amount ed to 15.S per cent, record falling off The decline during September, however, was one of the smallest on record. Unofficial reports indicate that prospects for good top crop are poor.

McComb City, Miss.--State troops patrolled the streets of this unusually quiet little railroad city following q pitched battle between trainload of imported strikebreakers and citizens.

 county.
 The citizens of McComb City are outspoken in their denunciation of the alleged bad conduct of the strike- breakers, as reported from Winona, Summit and Durant. At these points. according to telegrams received hero early in the afternoon, the strike breakers insulted women who were at the stations when the special train passed.
 This information served to inflame the citizens of McComb City, where approximately 1900 employees of the Illinois Central shops are on strike. l After a minor clash between the strikers and strikebreakers near the depot the train pulled down into tho
 yard below the city. where soon it was
 surrounded by armed citizens.
 The battle opened almost as soon | as the crowd came within sight of the train, and it was kept up until the train ran onto the main line and.
 with wide-open throttle, pulled out l for New Orleans.

Marianna.-Deputy Sheriff Mark farbrough was shot and killed by two negroes, Arthus Jones and John Collins, in front of his home, a half mile northwest of Marianna. The ne- groes were arrested by Sheriff NJ. H. ford and are said to have confessed.
 Collins was arrested soon after the shooting and Jones was brought in later After the arrival of each crowds gathered and threats of lynching were made and only the firm attitude of Sheriff Ford and his announcement that he intended to protect his prisoners at all hazards prevented the crowd from wreaking summary vengeance on the two ne groes.
 It is said that the negroes had been In Marianne and had been drinking heavily.

FEE CASE APPEALED.
Supreme Court Will Decide Whether Justice Can Collect Fee on
 Convicfion

SSiNlSttSHs
 Little Rock.-A suit involving an interesting point in the Patterson act, providing for the working of conyicts on the county roads. has been ap- pealed to the state supreme court, un. der the style of Jackson County vs. H. c. Nuckols, justice of the peace, from the Jackson county circuit court. The particular question Is as to whether or not a justice of the peace court fee for costs can collect before the fine and costs have been worked out, where the convict is placed on the road under the act of 1909.
 The county court disallowed the jus. tiee's claim, holding the court claim could not become due against the county until after the entire fine and costs had been paid or worked out by the convict. Judge Nuckols took the case to the circuit court, where 1t was heard on an agreed statement of facts. The circuit court held that the court costs became due as soon as the conviction was had, and that the claim should have been allowed by the county. The county has ap- pealed from the finding, and the su- preme court has been asked to set tie the question.

FLOOD AND FIRE
 CAUSE GREAT LOSS
Big Reservoir Containing 500 Million Gallons of Water
 Bursts.
ONE HUNDRED LIVES LOST
Horrible Scenes Follow In Wake of Flood, Many Persons Who Escape
 Drowning Burned to Death.

Austin, Pa.-Upward of 100 per sons lost their lives in a flood and fol- lowing fire when the great dam of the Bayless Pulp and Paper Company burst, letting loose On this town of 3,200 souls 500,000,00O gallons of water "a resistless flood that overwhelmed the city sweeping the people as they walked in the streets or as they mov- ed about in their homes.
 After the great, devastating wave passed, the wreckage of the town took fire, and many who had escaped the flood were consumed in the flames.
 The little town of Costello, below Austin, was practically aHnihilated. 1t had a population of between 400 and 300.
 The Austin flood will go down in the annals of disaster as a second Johns- town catastrophe. In the Johnstown flood from 2,300 to 5000 lives were lost
 Untold numbers were maimed or less seriously injured in this flood and fire.
 Survivors were in a frenzy. The town was dazed by the calamity, which came without moments warning. Hundreds of men, women and children searched through the ruins of the vil- lage for their families and friends.
 The only light was the glare of hun dreds of houses which caught fire from broken gas pipes almost before the flood had passed.
 Chaos reigned from the moment the mighty wall of water tore through the town.
 The dam which burst was built two years ago, great structure 530 feet long, spanning the little valley formed by Freeman run and rising to the height of 49 feet. It was of concrete 32 feet wide at the base and contained 800 100000 gallons of water. It is estimated that a thousand buildings were torn from their founda- tions and crushed in the flood or have been destroyed by fire. Work of rescue was hindered by the bursting of the natural gas pipes which set fire to the ruins and whose deadly fumes oyercame many. The smell of burning flesh caused many | to turn sick and abandon the efforts at rescue.
