LIST OF TRAGEDIES
Recalled by the Recent Kill
ing Of Barney Beach in
Solomonville

The killing of Barney Beach re.
Gently in Solomonville, brings to
mind a list of tragedies which
the family of Mrs, Beach have been
connected.
Mrs. Beach was sister-in-law of
man by the name of Salcido, who
was killed in Morenci in 1896 by
Chacon, the Mexican bandit.
The bandits made frequent raids
in Graham county about that time
and were notorious bad men. Cha
con was one of the worst in the lot.
Salcidc ran a store in Morenci and
knew the gang well. After one Of
the raids, Salcido went into the hills
in an endeavor to secure the gangs
surrender and was shot by Chacon,
Chacon was subsequently caught,
tried in the Graham county court
and sentenced to be hanged. On June
9, 1897, the night before he was to
die, he dug out of his adobe Jail and
made for the border, which he
reached in safety. Chacon terror
lied the inhabitants along the border
and made practice of stealing
horses, stock and mules and bring
ing them to the international line,
where he would sell the unch and
return to Mexico.
Bert Mossman, the first captain
of the Arizona Rangers, was re-
sponsible for Chacon's capture in
the year 1902. Captain Mossman
was unknown to Chacon and bar
gained for a bunch of horses to be
delivered at a point across the line
in the United States. Chacon de-
livered the stock and while he was
getting match for Mossman, the
latter pulled his gun on the despera-
do and captured him. Chacon was
brought back to Solomonville and
hanged Friday, November 81, 1902.
Mrs. Beach's maiden name was
johnson. About this time she mar
ried Arthur Wight, who succeeded
George Olney as sheriff of Graham
county. Wight was killed while
trying to make an arrest. George
johnson, brother of Mrs. Beach,
was killed last year in New Town,
near Morenci, by Deputy Sheriff
Lem Scott, while resisting arrest.
Both men fired their reyolvers at the
same time and both were killed.
The killing of Beach by his step
son probably closed line of blood
shed which has come down since the
late nineties.

Then they dropped me and assailed
Dick.
"We'd like to know what you expect
to gain by dropping out. You got cold

Gorse and Henderson paid similar
tributes to the apostate, whose melan-
choly grin only deepened.
Henderson rallied for Anal shot

 While the programme arranged for this evenings concert is an excellent one throughout, yet there is one num- Der that is particularly pleasing to all music lovers, namely. Beauty and the Beast" from 4f1fofher Goose
 The opening number. very brief. paints in a few soft p3arasee for flute and clarinet lightly supported by pig zicaio muted strings. an impress lonis- tie sketch of the sleeping beauty in the enchanted forest It will be noted that the first E5olins are not used at all un- til the very end. when they come in with lovely effect
 The second movement, Hop O My Thumbs bears the following text from, Ferrauft's collection of fairy tales: He hoped to find his way easily by means of the bread which he had scattered; but he was much surprised at not being able to find single crurnb; the birds had come and eaten has suggested the wandering of Petit Poucef' loboe solo over quietly gid ing muted sfrings1 is wonderfully fan ctful A more realistic and half hu- u1Ofoas lo4SG1 lS the perky Little tWlt- tarfng Of the birds later on, done by violin harmonies and rfccolo and flute notes
 The third movement nlustrates a fairy tale by Madame d'AuIney, who, like Perrauft, lived in the seventeenth century; the excerpt quoted on the score fs aS follows: 'She disrobed and stepped into the bath. Instantly the little statuettes began to sing and to play on instruments. Some had 1utes made of walnut shells, others had viols made of the shells of almonds, for it was necessary that their instru- 1nents should be suited to their size" Ravel translates this quaint picture into musical terms in a miniature march. the curiously bobbing and dip- ping theme oe which. given out by the piccolo, irresistibly suggests the nod ding heads of the statuettes As the erotesque company warns to it's work a perfect hubbub arises. After cfi- max there is a sort of trf, on a slower version of the same theme. Presently tho bobbfng Is heard again, this time in the silvery tones of tho ce1esta and gradually once more the fun grows fast and furious.
 Number fctiv Is the conversafI6n of Beauty and the Beast. while the final number has text, and presents merely a general picture in a fairy garden.
