Nor what he had struck, nor whom

Like the sound of the crack of Doom!
It flooded the crimson twilight
Like the crash of rending sky!
And l lay on the burning asphalt
With the motor across my thigh.

Like a man who scolds his wife;
1t seemed an unending smashup
That would. speedily end my life.
1t linked all my breaks and bruises
Into one perfect pain;
And 1t rumbled and whiZZed and

As If 1t would come again.

The reason for that great sound,
That came from the soul of the motor,
As it threw ME on the ground.

Could bring such sound to men:
And it may be that only in Nightmares
shall hear that noise again.

OPEN SEASON FOR MOOSE.

The utterances of Col Roosevelt seldom have met with such general diSapproval as was expressed by the New York press following his speech in that city on the eve of his depart ure for South America. Even the New York Times which has treated Col Roosevelt with Studious court esy in it's news columns administer ed severe editorial reinstatement, bluntly charging him with deliber- ate falsifcation and interruptions ness. It was not to be expected that The World would deal lightly with the Colonel when he volunteer ed so much material for attack It said of him:
 legal proposition accurately He never fairly describes the attitude of a court He never writes or speaks on a~judicial question without bias, without suppression of material facts, without downright misrepre- sentation based either in ignorance or in design, without an evident pur pose to infiame the people through transformation or falsehood. No more of boss than Mir Roosevelt MT. Barnes at least knows the truth and publishes it with courage and clearness. Review.
 Take courage. Think of the long term of life granted to the South Sea Bubble, the Mississippi Scheme, etc. Many people will finally see great light like unto that seen by those who at one time thought the world to lack the shape of sphere.

STATE APPoRTIoNs SCHOOL
 FUNDS TO COUNTIES
Generous Appropriations Are An-
 nounced for GreenIee.

A letter received by MT J. w Aker, superintendent of Greenlee County schools, from the state
 superintendent of education, conveys
 the information that a fund of the amount of S4,556.51 has been appor-
 toned to the schools of Greenlee county This is Greenlee's portion of fund distributed by the state to the various counties in the state, each scholastic in the state being awarded toward it's education the fThe number of Greenlee's scholastic population, according to the last school census, is 3,829.
 Superintendent Aker bore this mentioned appOrtionment iE mind when making the estimate concerning the requisite funds necessary for the conduct of the Greenlee schools this school year, as the tax levy for school purposes for this year was the low est ever estimated for this purpose. This money isn ow available. The total amount of this state apportion- ment to all the counties of Arizona is S55, ,55O.00. The amount appor- toned to Greenlee county demon strates that this county ranks fourth in scholastic population of all the counties of the state.
 By the effects of a modern state law concerning the tax levies made for the purpose of raising funds for the school of the state Greenlee county will receive for school pur- poses a sum that will approximate $3O,O00OO, this being it's proportion of a fund that will total about $50O,- OOOOO. This fund will be apportion- ed to the various counties after a de- duction of about S5O,OOO.0O for the maintenance of the office of the state superintendent, and a deduction of about S150,O00.00 for the purchasing of free text books for the scholastics of the state. This amount, ESQ., OOO.00, will materially assist in the conduct of the schools of Greenlee county. This money will be available about January 1.
