On the morning of July the fourth
tie-tourist-one of the Won t Work
variety, visited the Staton ranch be-
tween here and Carbondale and it is
safe to say he will remenber that visi.
when many other of his experiences
of pilgrimage have been forgotten.
Mrs. Station and her ses had gone to
SEWERS ranch to spend the day, lsav-
ing as sole guardian Of the ranch, her
nephew, Willie Westfsll. After Nj.
Tramp had looked areasA . while he
said to Westfall, IS hs locked toward
the house, "Well, this b . pretty good
looking house on the ss4siAe, let =. see
what it is like ON the ineide. - "No,"
said Willie "we will set 20 inside. -
"But say We will''" "Asd 1 sAy We
will not" and thus the argnment
waged back and forth, tAe tramp all
tAe while forcing himself nearer to the
house and Willie Offering what oppo-
sition he thought he eQsld to tie feI-
lows entrance into IT, e0use, Ne 1eit
called upon to protect.
When they had rsAehed the door,
young Westfall all ~ time warning
the intruder without avail to stay out
he doubled up his fist an1 with . jim
Corbet punch landed oa the visitor and
sent him to the ground. As the fellow
began to show SIGHT sd just as West
fall was preparing to eivs hin the best
he had left, the family dog eazhs to
his rescue and. taking NJ. Trap by
the bosom of the ovszslls, beoaa to

CONFIRMS CAPTAINS STORY.

MONTREAL, June 3.-The collier
Storstad which rammed the Cana
dian Pacific liner Empress of Ireland
in the st. Lawrence river last Friday
causing the loss of more than 900
lives, completed unloading her cargo
of coal today, and it was possible to
make a thorough inspection of her
bow, shattered by the shock of the
collision.
Her stem was twisted so much to
starboard that it almost formed a
half-circle. Some of the lowermost
plates in her bow were also twisted
and torn away There is a large in
dentation ON either side Of the stem
and the rivets are torn clear
The condition of the StOrstad' s
stem is pointed to in con-
nection with Capt. Anderson's claim
that when the collision occurred it
was impossible for the Golfers stem
to remain in the hole because it was
twisted by the forward movement of
the Empress.
The Storstad still is in the posses
sion of the bailiff who seized the YES
sci Oh the Canadian Pacific's claim
of two million dollars loss against the
collier.

PLEADS FOR RECLAMATION.

Washington, June 2. - Senator Bo
rah today made a plea for public lanC
legislation for the west before ad
jOurnment. He said the west needed
a grazing land law and a power law
but concluded that they would re
quire much more time, while only a
few hours, he added, are needed to
pass a bill for the retention by the
settlers of early payments on recla
nation projects.
-Four or five years may be short
time for us to pass legislation, but
It is a long time to settler who is
being closed out, he said.
If this session closes without the
passage Of this law it will be an
act of injustice and inhumanity to
thousands on our reclamation pro-
jects."
Senator Jones proposed a filibuster
to get the reclamation legislation
through and Senator Borah added
that there will probably be no river
and harbor bill unless the reclama-
ttor bill is added to it.

MIND FAILS
UNDER STRAIN
O. +. EkROTH, FORMER PARKER
DRUGGIST IN CUSTODY AT
PRESCOTT, HAS MENTAL COL
LAPSE-iN SERIOUS CONDITION

o. K Ekroth, who was formerly
empOlyed at various times as pre-
has suddenly gone insane in the
county jail at Prescott, where he is
in custody OH a charge of selling op-
ium. While in Parker, Ekroth acted
queer at times, and it was alleged
that he was addicted to the morphine
habit The following account of Elk
roth's condition is taken from late
issue of the Journal-Miner
From docile disposition, and a
pleasing personality, O. F. Ekroth
has suddenly been transformed into
maniac, in the county jail of this
city. He is being held for trial be-
fore the federal court on the grave
charge of selling opium.
''Ekroth admitted the crime some
time ago, and in his preliminary ex-
animation freely informed the officers
OF his connection with trafficking in
the business. Weeks of confinement
have at last affected his mental fac
ulties, and for the past five days
his hallucinations have become pro
nounced, requiring the attendance of
physician. Ekroth says he is un-
der a hypnotic Influence and specifies
certain individuals, who are alleged I'd
be controlling his affairs. He is also
speechless, and his rambilngs of
disordered brain are conveyed on pa
per.
Since it was learned that this
young druggist was affected, close
friends in this city state he was
addicted to hallucinations along the
same lines several months ago, when
he mentioned an occurrence on the
desert in being driven from a very
rich gold mine under orders from the
spiritual world. Under the strain of
his crime, and appreciating the fact
that he probably faces a long term in
the federal prison, there has been a
recurrence of his mental troubles,
which if not alleviated it is said will
be of serious consequences sooner or
later

CEMENT BY PARCEL POST.

merchant of Cibola last week
received more than three thousand
pounds of merchandise by parcel post
Among the lot was one thousand lbs.

This freight was mostly shipped from
Cotton and cost the Cibola merchant
less for freight from that place than
it would cost for freighting it by team
