 With all the beauty of a cataract remarkable petrified waterfall which has recently been engaging the atten- ton of scientists This is the Ham mann Meskhutin, which means The bath of the damned" and is located siXty-tWO miles from Constantine, on the site of the ancient town of Cirta. This Solidified cascade is the prOduc- tion of calcareOus deposits from sul- phurOus and ferruginous mineral springs, issuing from the depths of the earth at a temperature of 95 de- grees centigrade
 The bath of the damned" even from d near viewpoint, looks for all the world like a great wall of water dashing into a swirling pool at it's foot yet it's gleaming graceful curves and the apparently sWirlng eddies at it's base are as fixed and immoVable as if carved from the face of a gran ite cliff
 Many centuries have of course gone to the making of the deposits and the springs were well known to the ancient Romans The name Ham mann Meskhutin was given to the stone cateract in an allusion to a Ie- gend that the waterfall was petrified by Allah. punishing the impiety of un- believers by turning all the members of a tribe into stone.

BOY, DOG AND BICYCLE
 DISAPPEAR ABSOLUTELY
Joe Butterworth Leaves Home on Err rInd and Has Not Since Been
 HeGrd From or Seen

Utterly without reason for volun- talily leaving his people, Joseph But tcrWorth Jr.. the fourteen year old son of Mr. and Mrs. ButterWorth of this town left home Wednesday eve ming on an errand and has since then disappeared us completely as though the earth had opened and swallowed him. To say that Tempe is puzzled over the mystery. would be putting the case very mildly in deed. Not only has the strange dis appearance distracted his parents. but has mNstificd and astoundcd all who knew him. It was not d case of leaving home to escape cruelty or was the boy one who would try to become an Indian hunter in the far west. He just simply dropped out of sight, and hearing.
 He had not quarrelled with his father and mother. He had not been ill treated. or even had he cause to imagine he had His mother sent him to q store a few squares away "Wednesday evening. He discharged the errand perfectly and was later seen in company with one of his youthful companions With him was his big dog, And that is ali. The boy with whom he was seen con versins knew nothing of his inten- ton to leave home. But if he had faded into thin air, he could not have taken any more thorough way to throw searchers off his track
 He was riding his bicycle. and his Ino- fnIInA-ir., consisted of overalIs. gray sweater, tan shoes, and d white felt hat The dog is a large black and white shep- herd
 The anxious parents are moving heaven and earth to find the boy. The town authorities were notified the same evening he disappeared Word has been sent to every town ranch and homestead in the valley. but to no avail Not d single word has been heard X professiona! criminal on kidnapping tour could not have made d more complete job of it than tine boy had done. Ot course the suspicion has arisen that some such crime has taken place. but there is absolutely no reason for it The parents aIe not wealthy. they could not pay ransom for theiI boy.
 The officers of the county have been put on the look out Every possible preparation has been made to apprehend the lad should he be found within the state. The search continues unabated. And in the meantime this little city awaits with great interest the solution of as perpleNing problem as could be thrust upon it through the ingenuity however misdirCcted of fourteen year old boy.

SCHOOLS MAY OPEN
 ON MONDAY MORNING
High School and Grammar School Boards to Consult Some Time
 During Today.

The uneasines that manifested itself when the case of meningitis was first noted in Mesa has been greatly all layed through the fact that there have been no new cases developed and the boy first attacked by the disease shows signs of a speedy recovery due to the prompt action of the physicians in ad- mnistering the only known remedy a serum injected in the spinal cord While there are a few cases of measles in town, they are all carefully quar- antined and an epidemic is not prob able Hence the question of keeping the schools closed another week, or of starting in again next Monday will come up at a meeting of the school boards today. The town authorities will agree to whatever the board de- cides in the matter. At this writing there appears to be a well grounded be- lief that the schools will resume on Monday.
