ADJUTANT GENERAL IS CAUSING HUNT
 NO END OF WORRY

PHOENIX. Ariz March 14.--Who will be adjutant general if Govern or Hunt finds it advisable, because of the attitude of the war department. to appoint a successor to Colonel Charles w. Harris. the present in- cumbent?
 The list of officers eligible to hold the position. under the restrictions imposed by the present military code of the state. is extremely short.
 Since the present controversy be- tween Harris and the war depart ment arose. the officers Of the Ma tional Guard of Arizona have been looking rather closely into the new code which was adopted by the leSis- lature last spring. It was compiled by Harris but is said to have had the approval of the department.
 This law provides that to be eligi- ble to appointment as adjutant gen eral an officer shall have had six years service in the state e7rnrd or three years service in the national army. Such service shall not have tAhtu NlNuln NNO gfhAH Ul hlt aD- pointment. He must, of coarse, be a citizen of Arizona.
 There are very few officers in the National Guard of Arizona today competent to act as adiutant gem eral, who have had six years ser vice. Almost the only ones are Maj ors II. II Donkersley. of Yuma. and F, P. Grinstead of Phoenix. both Re- publicans. Grinstead would not con- sider accepting the adjutant generals dnice and it is doubtful if Donkersley would do so. So far as Is known, there is not single retired army of [ iicer in Arizona who is eligible.
 Only an act of the legislature can change the military code. The gov ernor is likely to be embarrassed in his search for an adjutant general, If it becomes necessary to make such a search.

 According to MT McKeen. Hutton now states that he was held up in the roadway by foot pad, and sand bagged when he attempted resist ance. McKeen. who was driving an automobile down Naco road on the night of the finding of Hutton. and near that time. was subsequently asked to appear. in court. The off | cers questioned him but were not able to convince themselves that he had struck Hutton with his machine although circumstantial evidence pointed that way. Mir McKoen sait yesterday that he was at no tin' arrested nor SO far as he knew haC he been under surveillance Th, present outcome in the 5ta.ement O Hutton is naturally very pleasing to him

SOMETHING ABOUT CRAWFORD AND HIS
 WORK IN AFRICA

Mir. Henry M Stanley records in his autobiography the burning desire in David Livingstone's heart to pene- trate the land beyond the Lualaba. But this great pioneer missionary in Darkest Africa did not live to full fill his hearts desire. Among the scores who have been fired with missionary zeal by the story of the heroic work of David Livingstone, was q Scottish lad named Daniel Crawford, who early in life aspired to achieve the mission upon which Livingstone had vainly set his heart. But nature had not endowed him with a robust physique and in early years pulmonary weakness seemed to debar him from the strenuous life of pioneer labors in such a forbidden field But he refused 10 be discour. aged
 Sixteen years after Livingstone laid down his work this intrepid youth, ! threatened with tuberculosis, set sail for Africa on his perilous task From the time of setting forth till the date of his arriving at his destination was twenty-three months. It was truly pioneer labor. for no white man had ever before entered the Luanza coun try. and, in addition to all the physi cal difficulties to be encountered in entering a new land young Crawford had to overcome hostile prejudices and master a new language. By pa tlence, indefatigable labor, and tact he succeeded in winning the conf dence and respect of the hostile tribes, and became a trusted adviser of Mushidt, the great potentate of Central Africa.
 After twenty-three years of contin uous labor, in which he never en joyed a furlough, he and his wife re- turned to Scotland about two years ago where they visited their only son who is in school in their native land After thrilling England with tales of work done and opportunity offered Mir. and Mrs. Crawford are returning to their field of labor. Mrs. Crawford by way of Australia and Mir. Craw ford by way of America, that the needs of their field might be known and help given.
 | The years of isolation have brought physical strength to MT. Crawford and an insight into the life of black and white men that has made his writings and lectures educational and inspiring. MT. Crawford is an inde pendent worker and his work has grown up as result of his own eff forts. Never before has he sought outside help but now he has trans lated the New Testament into the language of the people among whom he labors and the opportunity exists for establishing schools and enlarging the work he seeks a wider circle ol friends to whom he can present the privilege of cooperating in won derfully successful work.
 Mir. Crawford will deliver two ad dresses in Bisbee, both being in the Presbyterian Church, Thursday, the 18th. The first will be at 1:45 D. m., and the second at 7:00 D. m. NIT Crawford leaves at s:35 D. m. Thurs day for the West. No admission fee will be charged to hear him but a freewill offering will be received. Il is hoped that many will take the op portunity to hear this man who stands among the great men of the day.

On the morning of July 3 the sun
and Sirius. the dog star will rise to-
gether for the first time this year,
and the dog days will set in. In an
cient Egypt the dog star was credited
with the floods in the Nile, which
came al this season of the year and
gave the Egyptians their crops. The
dog was worshipped as the god Isis,
and many beautiful temples were
built for it. The dog days originated
with the Romans, who attributed an
evil influence to the dog star and OBJ
jected to the theology of the Egypt
ians IS it pertained to this matter
Like all theological disputes. this
one became very bitter Caesar suff-
cred with the heat of the dog days
until he took his army into Egypt re.
ducing that ancient empire to the
wreck of its former glory which it
remains today. The dog was taken
out of the temple and put in the dog
house, where it remains. Science has
subsequently discovered that Sirius
affected neither the floods in the Nile
nor the heat in Rome. Both sides
were wrong, as usually proves to have
been the case in theological dispute.
the dog star will continue to rise
with the sun every morning until
August II, when the dog days will
end.
On July 4 we will celebrate the
anniversary of our independence by
shooting off the ammunition we had
left after the British surrendered.
Some of this powder is little old and
damp, but it will all go off if one will
wait long enough. The accidents
which happen on the Fourth are al
most all due to lack of confidence in
it upon the part Of people who insist
upon going back to see if it hasn't
gone out. The same thing happened
to the British during the Revolution.
They were blown up a dozen different
times, and finally retired permanent
