 JAIL AT AZTEC

Aztec, N. M. Aug. 19-Ben Murray, who is held in the coun. ty jail here charged with horse stealing, made his escape on Tuesday morning at an early hour with the aid of some per. son from the outside. Murray was allowed the freedom of the jail building instead of being locked in the steel cage, and it was a comparatively easy mat ten to get a key to fit the lock on the jail door. Sheriff Dufur telephoned to different parts of the county and Ben was caught near Shiprock, while trying to escape He IS again in jail and the sheriff will not show him as much consideration in the future.

COMMISSION TO
 MAKE LONG TRIP

The State Land Commission has an extensive camping trip in front of it. The Commission will have to go over every bit of public land in the State of Ari- zona, all in a matter of six months. The work would take matter of four years, but the Commission is determined to go over the most important parts at first. Their first trip will be- gin next week, when they go in to Apache and Navajo counties.
 A personal examination of all the school land, in order to ap- praise it, will be made. The school land that will occupy the attention of the Commission pr1uc1pally will be that that has been under lease. Futher the Commission will make an exam ination of all the unapropriated public land, with a view of talk ing certain land in lieu of grants made by Congress in the Enab- ling Act. The Commission has a difficult task in front of 1t and a camping trip that would satisfy the most seasoned camper.-Ari- zona Democrat.

The County Dads were in ses sion th1s week listening to the kicks on the raises of assessment and strange to say there were few objections, nearly all the tax payers being satisfied. They fix ed the tax rate at $43O for che county, with an addition of 20c. for the Holbrook school district and 9Cc. for the Winslow school district. This is pretty high as compared with last year, but Is not high when you consider the additional expense of the state government and the fact that the rate was not made sufficient ly high last year to meet the or dinary expenses of the county. Since the 1st of August the trea- surer has been compelled to re- fuse payment on all county war rants for the simple reason that there is no money to pay them with. The warrants, however, I are registered and draw seven per cent interest from that date until called in by the treasurer some time this winter as soon as sufficient funds have been collect ed to pay them with.

The meeting was held, the following officers were elected: Frank Wallace, of Ada. mana, president; Ed. Bargman, of Winslow, vice president; Geo. Henderson, treas; w. A. Saun- ders, secretary.
 And on August 18th the day appointed for a branch meeting to be held in St. Johns, number of the cattlemen of this part met at the court house and after due consideration of the object of the association it was thought by those present that Apache coun- ty should have an organization of its own and 1t was decided by those present that the cattlemen of this county be advised that a meeting would be held on Sept. 1st, when an organization is to be effected for Apache county.
 This is a good move on the part of the cattlemen and no doubt much good will result for each and every member. St. Johns Herald.

PREFERS THE
 SHEPHERDS LIFE

C. I. Houck tells of it's fascina- ton. Says herding sheep in the mountains has a sunny side; lit tie work, fresh air and plenty to eat. (From Kansas City paper )
 Trailing around through the mountains after a flock of sheep day after day, sleeping with them in the lonely solitudes at night, back a distance of 75 milee from railroad, IS very pleasant oc- cupation after one becomes ac- customed to such life, accord ing to c. I. Houck, of Holbrook, Arizona. Fifteen years ago MT. Houck went out there and took up that sort of life, which he has followed ever since, with the exception of four years he spent holding the office of sheriff of Ma vajo county.
 My first six months in that lonely country was trying, l want to tell you," Mir. Houck said. "I made several desperate efforts to get away and go back to civilization. Then I began to forget my former home and joys, and gradually 1 became fascina- ted with the work, and now 1 would not think of living any place else. The four years 1 serv- ed as sheriff became trying, and I longed to get back with the sheep.
 "Sheep herders have plenty to eat and little work to do. They live entirely out of doors, and sleep out in the open. Generally we have three men in a mess. One cooks and looks after the commissary, and tends to nov ing the camp, which is generally done every three or four days. Then we keep a team to haul out from the nearest railroad point, provisi ons to the camp outfits. These provisions consist of sug- ar, coffee, baking powder, flour, also potatoes and beans. Of course they have fresh meat whenever they want it. They bake their own bread, and ou can bet men living in the open that way, have an appetite.
 "Such a crew will attend 4OOO sheep. They have with them a sheep dog, also fire arms and a plenty of ammunition They kill game, and never hurry at any thing. The sheep become trained to a considerable extent, and know what is expected of them. They feel that as night comes on they must get together for mu- tual protection from enemies. The herders and the dog keep a sharp watch constantly over them, day and night. A good many miles are covered during a year by the flock, changing from place to place seeking the best grazing spots."

BUILDING BOOM REALLY ON AT
 WINSLOW
w. A. Parr Tells Some Interesting Facts About What the Elks and Others of that Enferprising Town
 are Doing

The following article was talk en from recent issue of the Albuquerque Journal:
 w. A Parr, of Winslow Ariz., came in from the west yesterday morning and returned to Wins low on last nights passenger traia No. z.
 Mir. Parr, being the leading undertaken of Winslow, is also an architect and superintendent of the construction of buildings He drafted the plans and specltl- cations for the handsome $3O, GOO "home" the Elks of Winslow are erecting, and is superintend- ing it's construction. Mr Parr came to AlbuqueI que to find out the reason why the Tonque Brick & Tile Company, of Ago dones, with officers here, had not shipped the balance of an order for 10000 brick, given that company to be put in the Elks' home. The explanation of the delay in receiving the bricks was entirely satisfactory to MT. Parr, and the company expects 10 ship 2O,OOO bricks, the bal ance due, to Winslow in few days.
 Mir. Parr stated that the Winslow Elks' home, when com rleted and which will cost ESQ., GOO, without it's furnishings, will be one of the finest struc- lures of its kind in Arizona It will be modern in all of its con- veniences; will be two 16-toot stories, located on a prominent corner of the town, 50x134 feet, and the lodge room proper will be practically as large as the looge room of the Masonic tenn pie of this city-35x50 feet amply large enough tor all pur- poses, and hls, means the "lnitl- ating billy goat" too.
 Besides the Elks' improve ment, representing over $50. .000, said Mr. Parr. who was pleas ant caller at the Journal office estelday after noon, Winslow will also have one of the most substantial and commodious high school buildings in the state, costing over $19,OOO, and which is nearing completion Right now there is going up in the business and residence sections of W inslow, buildings which will totalin cost, besides their fur nlshings, between $65,OOO and $75.OOO.
 II think Winslow is growing more rapidly than any other town in Arizona, and l antici pate a city of considerable pro portions in the next few years At present Winslow has a popu latlon of over 5000"
 MT, Parr was a resident O Albuquerque about fourteer years ago, and while here, repre- senting period ofseveral years be built number of residence: and several business houses. Mir Parr had not visited Albpquer que for about eight years. ano he was eratifed to notice SC many substantial improvement: made here during the interim.
