MESA
HAVE NARROW ESCAPE
 WHEN CAR HITS WIRE

W. $. Dryden, of Harper, Kansas, came near bleeding to death from a severed artery in his left wrist, and
 Mrs. W. M- Beach of Mesa, had her head badly cut, when a wire strung across the public road, between Gran ite Reef and Desert Wells, smashed the wind shield of the automobile driven by W. M Beach, vice presi- dent of the Salt River Valley bank, of Mesa. Beach himself was badly burned about the hands in d fire that followed. caused from a cigar that Dryden had thrown away, when the windshield was smashed and which landed in the top of the machine. [ The party. consisting of MT. and
 Mrs. w. NJ. Beach and Mrs. L. w. Stilwell of Mesa, and Mir. w. S. Dry den. of Harper, Kansas, had started to Granite Reef and were on the main road, one mile north of Desert
 Wells, when the accident occurred. A heavy guy wire had been strung across the road by employees of the reclamation service in an effort to Irop up weakened tower of the transmission line. As it was dusk the wire was not seen until the automo- bile was upon it. MT. Dryden was the first to notice it, and called out, as the car struck the wire. which where the radiator is filled. From this the wire rebounded and struck the windshield, breaking it into a thousand pieces.
 Beach had stopped the car by this time and. upon investigation found that Dryden had received a cut from the flying glass that had severel the artery in his left wrist. Handke-- chiefs were requisitioned and the wound bound up as well as possible Dryden also stopped the flow of blood by pressing his thumb over the
 artery The party then reentered the auto and started back to Mesa. When they had come some two miles west from Desert Wells Mrs. Stilwell call ed attention to the fact that the auto top. which had been fastened back. was afire. Beach stopped the auto and with his bare hands extinguished the flames. It was then that Mrs. Beach fell from the car in a dead faint and bruised her shoulder. and 1t was then discovered that she had received bad cut on the scalp from the flying glass, when the wind shield was smashed.
 record run was made from that point to Mesa and the party taken to the Southside hospital for treatment. Dryden is seriously ill from loss of blood and Mrs. Beach is suffering severely from shock and bruises Mir. Beach has two badly burned hands, caused by his heroic efforts to ex tingulsh the flames and save the auto that he might get Dryden to Mesa : to prevent his bleeding to death. As It was Dryden just did get to a doc tor in time.

JACK SWELLING,
 HIS PET RIFLE
Charles B. Genung Un- earths Interesting Relic of Man Who Discovered
 Golden Rich Hill-Re- markabie Skeleton Found.

Jack" Swillings pet rifle has been found
 Buried away in the cellar of an abandoned house in Peoples valley. valley that branches out of Kirkland valley near Prescott, Charles Genung, a pioneer of pioneers. discovered the own" artillery of the man who first discovered gold on Rich Hill.
 In a letter to Col Thomas F Weedin of Phoenix, MT Genung an- nounces the interesting discovery and asks what use may be made of the relic The colonels advice was that the ancient Winchester be placed in the Pioneers Museum at Tucson
 Old Johnnie SWilling was a sturdy son of Yavapai, and many's the stirring tale that might be told of him. It was in the early sixties that he conceived a passion for a special rifle. and the gun which was lately uneaTthed bore silver plate with this inscription:
 Made expressly for J. w. Swilling by the Winchester Repeating Arms company"
 The house belonged for long time to John White, a 'pal' of Swilling's in those same early sixties. The arm is of 45-7O caliber and beauti- fully built. F'ifty-four years have touched it lightly. and it is rusty but still obviously special
 Genung didn't confine his explora- tions to the cellar of the house of White. He relates also the discovery of remarkable skeleton in a well. dug by man named Walcott. on his ranch in Peoples Valley. The skull was almost perfect until scat tered by a blow from a pick On top, where it should be thinnest it is said to be over half an inch thick, fact which makes it .A emarkable bonehead. Very few races-and then only the aboriginal sort can boast brain pans of such sturdiness So the Peoples Valley man must have been closely related to the missing link, or else one awful throw back"

TEMPE
DEMAND FOR HOUSES
 EXCEEDS THE SUPPLY
Many a Family Will Pass Tempe Up This Fall if More Accommodations
 are Not Supplied

Real estate dealers of Tempe are again being confronted with the same problem of supplying a sufficient num- Der of houses to meet the demand of incoming families, that has been pre- scented to them annually for years, more or less all through, but most par ticularly during August and September when the many parents from other Ari- Zona points come in to place their chil- dren in school for the winter term. The last two years have seen no end of families pass Tempe up, for the sole reason that suitable locations could not be secured. All present indications point to the fact that exactly the same conditions will exist this year only on a larger scale, unless somebody gets busy mighty quick and builds.
 An investment in small rental cot tages in Tempe would be hard to beat sure to be made during the remainder of this month will supply tenants for any class of house. from one sutab ble to live in to one of the most expensive type. In Tempe now. even with the absence of a large number of perma- nent local residents on their summer vacations. there is to be found hardly a house suitable to the tenant of ordin- ary means.
 By personal calls, by telephone and by letter. the realty dealers of Tempe are receiving requests for house res ervations. while to meet the demand there are few if any locations to be had.
 An investment in small cottages suf- ficient to meet the requirements would bring all of fifty to hundred more families to Tempe for the winter The towns schooling facilities cannot be beaten in the state, people are easily found in all parts of Arizona that real ize that and would readily take ad vantage of it, were the right accommo- dations afforded them.
