claim under the policy.
Mr.. Franklin visited the Luna
ranch in Western Socorro county
and after making a personal invcs-
tigation, he reported to his com
pany that Mr. Luna's death was
the result of an accident, thus put
ting to an end any belief that death
was caused either by heart failure
or by apopleXy.

The Famous Water Elevator.

Cantrell 4 Carney have secured
the agency for the Famous water
elevator, one Of which is now in OPP
Grafton on the 80-acre tract one mile
northeast Of town, just purchased
by Mr.. Cantrell from +. o. Pattberg.
The installation of the pump has
been done by f. l.. Underwood, an
expert. of Los Angeles.
1t is the simplest and easiest OPP
Grated of any pump construction
ever manufactured, the repair cost
being practically nothing from year
to year, as the pump runs very slow
ly and by reason of its construction,
there is almost no friction.
The pump consists of a series Of
galvanized iron buckets. carried on
two sprocket chains, balancing up
up and down, 80 that the weight of
the water only is thrown on the en-
CINE.
The plant mentioned is operated
by a l0.H.P. engine, using from
to ! of the rated h.p., and lifting 600
to 700 gallons per minute, about
so fl. at an expense of about soc
per day.
One of the attractive features Of
this pump is that you can dig the
we'll, from the water.line down with
the pump, and there is no danger
of sand clogging,
The cost of these pumping plants
is less than the ordinary centrifugal
the actual figures depending upon
the capacity and depth of well.
The company guarantees to oper-
ate these pumps with 30 per cent
less power and n to 30 per cent
less trouble and repair bills,

The National Irrigation Con
gress Will be a Great
Meeting.

There have already been regis
tered over two thousand delegates
to the National Irrigation Congress
which covnenes for a four-days
session at Salt Lake City on Sep
TENDER both. This means that the
coming assemblage of this congress
is destined to be the most import
ant in its history.
There are several reasons for the
broad interest in the subjects which
are to he discussed ut the several
sessions. Prominent among these
stirring themes will be the discus.
sion between the states of Colorado
and Texas as to the respective
rights Of each of these common
wealths to the waters of the Rio
Grandc. The two sides of the ar.
gument will be championed by some
of the most powerful orators from
each of the interested states. The
Texas battle will he led by lScnator
Joe Bailey while Colorado's con-
tingent will have Senaror Frank
Gouty MS it's Warwick. The
question will, when finally decided,
have n direct bearing on several
parallel situations: therefore, there
is a widespread interest in the nc
ton of the Congress along this
line.
Irrigation conditions thruout the
west have developed several most
important subjects which will have
the attention of the Congress
Among these is the subject of wa
ter measurement. which at the
present time differs in nearly every
western state, then there is the
differential between the water laws
of the different sections and besides
this there is world of possibilities
in the various questions of the duty
of water. Another subject Of
grave Importance which will be-
given broad attention is that of
irrigation finance and the best
means of establishing it on n sound
basis. Allied to this comes the
question of weak and impractical
irrigation schemes and further
/ down the list those schemes which
may he termed in no other way
than as wildcat
All of these questions are SEIZED
uled for discussion and there is ,
certainty that every session of tn,
congress will he full of interest t,
every irrigationisl.
Utah has thrown out broad in
vitation to this twentieth celebra
! ton of the founding of the con
gress and is preparing most inter
esting series of entertainments
These will include musical pro
gram for the opening session ant
an electric pageant surprising il
size anything ever held in TIT
western country.

Topega, Kan, June S.-Probate
Judges of Kansas will demand certiti-
Gates of health from prospective brides
and bridegrooms, following in the

Topeka, author and lecturer.
Rev. Mr.. Sheldon announced some
time ago that he would never marry
another couple unless each showed a
physicians statement. His exactions,
which the probate judges will incor-
porate in a bill to be introduced at
the next session of the Legislature, are

Being an authoritative CON-
piIaliOn Of facts concerning

Of ChGhaW, in Lee County

were entertained, and the contractors
having failed to furnish the troops
with provisions, the Chehaws hasten
ed to supply the deficiency.
Cattle were slaughtered, corn was
ground into meal, and all horses that
could be spared from the village were
turned over to Jackson.
During his stay with the Chehaws
Jackson enlisted their sympathies in
his cause, and every available fighting
man joined him, leaving the village in
charge of the women and children,
and few old men.
Thine Chehaw Indians were but the
forerunners of mighty host of friend
ly Greeks, who eventually aided our
country in this conflict.
Some two months later, the village,
thus left defenseless, became the scene
o: laundering outrage. Obed Wright
a captain of the Georgia militia, OBJ
taining certificates from several men
at Hartford to the effect that the Che
haws were engaged on the Big Bend
in sFirmishing, went to the governor
and secured orders to destroy the In
dian towns of Filemme and Oponee,
near the town of Chehaw With two
companies of cavalry he proceeded to
carry out his plan. Other military
men tried to prevail upon him to de-
sist, knowing the friendliness of the
Chehaws. About that time two white
men, one named Leigh, had been kill
ed Oh Cedar creek, and Wright's idea
seems to have been to fix the murder
upon the Indians, attack them, and
thus appease and gain the friendship
of Leighs friends.
On the outskirts of the village they
found an Indian grazing some cattle.
They captured him, and he immediate
ly proposed to go with an interpreter
and bring any of the chiefs for the
captain to talk with, to which propo-
sition Wright refused to accede. An
advance was ordered and the cavalry
rushed forward and commenced the
massacre. Even after the firing COM
menced, an aged chief, Howard, came
out of his house with a white flag
he sign of truce was not respected
An order was given for a general fire
and nearly four hundred guns were
discharged at him. He fell and was

Leaving Nashville, they came
marching through the country, over

Reaching old FIT. Hawkins, near Ma

news. The Georgia militia had aban-
doned the war and reformed home
while the army contractors had fail

Scott was starving and the situation
was perpleXing.
After writing letter to the secre-
tary of war denouncing the system oil

pushed on to the now extinct town of
Hartford, near Hawkinsville, and
thence to the friendly Indian village
of Chehaw, sixty miles north of Fl

At that time Chehaw was one of
the six largest Indian towns in the
state of Georgia. In marked contrast
to the Seminoles, and contrary to the
popular idea of an Indian with a scalp
in one hand and tomahawk in the
other, the inhabitants of the voltage

peaceable, farming people, of marked

Corn they raised in large quantities
