Her sunburned face was sad and
patient, there were tears in her eyes
when she looked up, 1t thrilled Ross,
however, the sudden wild beauty Of
that face as she observed him and
sprang to her feet, a-quiver with de-
light.
"Ohi you must be Mr., Morton's

And it a you who wrote the let

came. My father and l had to carry
him here to escape the flames. Then
we made this shelter. All the others
have gone. Poor father died a week
ago. He is buried over beyond that
little knoll"
And you-you have nursed my
friend-alone?" exclaimed Ross, moved

girl sadly. Besides, Mr.. Morton had
been kind to father. There were some
half-burned stores left from the fire
and we have got along very we'll"
You are the noblest woman / have
ever met" burst unrestrainedly from
the lips of Ross, and he did not even
except Ruth Purcell. Then he passed
under the shelter, with sorrow and
tears regarding the wan, wasted face
Of the friend he had come SO far to
aid.
1t was several days before Wylie
was able to sit up. The boat was due
the following Monday. In a search for
clothing, Ross investigated the satchel
Wylie had brought away from home.
Ross selected a light coat way down
at the bottom of the satchel. AS he
shook it out a letter fell from its
pocket. 1t was stamped, and addressed
to Miss Ruth Purcell" but had never
been mailed.
In a fash the truth came to Ross.
He hurried to Wylie and showed it to
him. The latter flushed, paled and
then sank back overcome.
Il think l understand" said Ross
slowly. Why, Ruth's actions are as
clear as day to me now. You never
mailed that letter she supposed you
cared nothing for her-and say, I'm
going to keep that letter and straight

Which Ross did, sending all details
to Ruth and the letter itself, and tell
ing her that they would forget that
perhaps of his, and imploring an
answer. And that answer babe Wylie

AS to Ross, it was not hard to cling
to lovable, gentle Mary Thorpe, and
be glad that things had come around
just right, and that to Wylie Morton
he had been a true and loyal friend.

vently.
"Oh, do all you can for your dear
friend, won't you, Mr.. Evans?" she
sobbed.
Il would die for him, brave old
chum!" declared Ross and then he
stood s|pellbound, for Ruth leaned i'm
pulsiyely toward him and kissed him.
He thrilled all over, he put out his
arms, but she shrank away from him,
covering her abashed face with her
hands. Was she sorry to have him
go away?
Ruth" he whispered ~ardently,

again the question of my life?"

him, and Ross went away as one walk

HOW TO CAN BEANS
FOR WINTER USE
Home Economics Department of
University of Missouri Gives
Practical Directions on
Preserving Vegetables.

Green beans, which are so
plentiful at present, may be can
ned easily. Canned beans form a
pleasant addition to the winter
diet.
The home economics depart
ment of the University of Mis-
souri, at Columbia tells how to
con beans. In preparation, wash
and string the beans as if for
immediate use, Next pack them
in jars as tightly as possible,
covering with water and adding
a teaspoonful of salt to each
quart. Put on the rubbers and
tops, adjusting loosely, then
place on a rack Of some sort or
layer of straw in the bottom of
a boiler and cover with clean
water. Boil for two hours, count
ting from the time the water be-
gins to boil. Remove from the
water and seal Immediately.
The best jar for this purpose
is one that fastens with a wire
spring. In using this style of jar,
the glass tops are put in place,
held loosely with the wire pass
ing over the top. After remov-
ing from hot water the wire
spring is frightened, thus sealing
the jar. The reason for sealing
while hot is that steam, not air,
be contained in the jar. This
steam condenses when the jar

VIZ SOUND Jumps ereat pIatannea.

Why Sound Jumps Great Distances.
Sound does not always travel
through the air in a straight line; it
often happens that two zones of sound
are separated by a zone of silence.
In 1908 an explosion Of dynamite on
the railroad then building up the
Jungfrau was heard in two different
zones. The first extended through a
radius Of 40 hlometers around the ex-
plosion. The other began at a dis
lance OF 40 hlometers, the sound be-
ing unheard in the intervening 100
kilometers.
Similar phenomena had been OBJ.

to explain them by the rehexion OF

who has studied such matters during
volcanic eruptions in Japan, asserts
now that these phenomena depend
upon the direction OF the wind In the
middle strata Of the atmosphere.

.REWSITS THE zUHIS
 AFTER FORTY YEARS
An Incident of Captain Banta's Latest
 Excursion

Captain A. F. Banta has returned to Phoenix after an absence of a year which he has spent in travelling about the state in easy stages and covering the entire eastern part of it from Tue son to St. Johns. with a side trip into New Mexico. It happened that all the rivers he encountered were in flood and when it is known that be- tween Clifton and the mouth of the Blue, distance of twenty miles. one has to cross the San Francisco forty eight times, it may be surmised that the captain had a pretty moist jour ney. At one time with a companion he reached with his outfit, high bar in the river, intending to leave the next morning. But that night it rained and for some days after that so that it was weeks before they could leave the bar.
 After spending a few days at his former home, St. Johns. Captain Ban ta decided to make trip to the Zunis to see how his tribesmen were getting along. He had not visited them since 1865. He was formally inducted into the tribe at that time and though he had not visited them, he remained a member in good standing

THANKS THE FRIENDS
 WHO MADE HER QUEEN

When friends turn out and bend their every energy toward winning honors for man or woman, it, is fit ting that the object of such effort should be appreciative. And Miss Pearl McGrath, balloted into the enviable position of Queen of the Arizona State Fair by scores of friends, is more than appreciative of the work of those who placed her in nomination and then saw to 1t that she had enough votes to bring the honor to her.
 In speaking to reporter for the Republican yesterday, Mics McGrath said that at first she took little inter est in the contest, believing she had no chance of winning. But when her friends began working and indicating to her that she had an even chance with the dozen or more other young women whose names had been entered. she started out determined that just as long as her friends were working. she would strive for the honor
 T wish The Republican would say for me that more fully appreciate all that was done for. me during the re- cent contest, than I can find words to express said Miss McGrath But for these friends, I could never have hoped to have gone into first place. And none can know the thrill that accompanied the announcement that I had met with success. The day that I was Queen will ever remain as one of the bright est and happiest of my life. Thank them all for me. As for the girls who didn't quite make it, but who were worthy, I have the kindest regard and I want them always my friends"

FELT THE EARTHQUAKE
 IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
FELT THE EARTHQUAKE pr. w. c. Gillespie Became Human
 Seismograph

Dr. William c. Gillespie is a human seismograph He is the only man in Phoenix who detected the California earthquake the other day. and he would not have done so but for the po- sition in which he happened to have placed himself He was sitting in his office with his chair tilted back, his legs crossed. He felt his chair moved as though some one had come behind him and jostled him slightly. He looked about and seeing no one, re- stunned his position when the jostling movement was resumed and then he noticed that one foot was swaying over a space of six inches.
 He turned to his stenographer and asked her if she had felt any moticT She had not. Dr. Gillespie had gone through one earthquake; that is, he had been awakened from his, sleep in middle Tennessee by the great Charleston earthquake several years ago and renembered the sensation. Though slight this time, it was un- mistakable.

BUCKEYES HOLD
A BIG REUNION
HUNDREDS OF OHIO PEOPLE AS
SEMBLE AT THE NAUTILUS
CASINO FRIDAY AFTERNOON TO
ENJOY ANNUAL MEETING.

The Ohio day reunion at the Maui
titus casino Friday afternoon was a
brilliant success in every way and
the weather aided in making it so, the
afternoon being bright and balmy, al
though rain fell in the forenoon.
President Z. NJ Condit, who called
the meeting to order at 2:30 O'Clock,
referred to his plea Of the previous
day in the Daily News in which he
urged the Ohio people to get together
and dissipate the cloudy, rainy
weather of several days, and of the
pleasing change which had followed.
The secretary, DR.. w. w. Wilder, not
being present, Mrs. A. E. Mason acted
in that capacity.
The casino presented lively ap-
pearance, the meeting being the
largest state gathering held this sea
son, with several hundred Buckeyes
present.
The speakers of the afternoon in
cluded Rev. DR.. Charles Frederic
Goss, of Cincinnati. Ohio; Rev. DR.. S.
p. Leland, of this city; DR.. S. w. Fow-
Ter. of Delaware, Ohio, and the presi-
dent of the society. E. NJ. Condit, OF

breeze.
Mr.. Condit's paper was entitled
Ten Minutes With Ohios Sons of
Yesterday" and dealt with brief his
tory of the prominent men, presidents,
statesmen, soldiers, etc, who had
been born and reared in Ohio.
DR.. Goss took for his subject
Johnny Appleseed," and was an inter.
esting story of that eccentric indi'
vidual who planted Ohio and other OF
the middle states with apple trees to
produce fruit for the COMING genera,
tions. Dr. Goss, in opening his ad
dress, touched upon the great senti
ment of patriotism in its relation to
both state and nation.
DR.. Fowler's paper dealt with the
subject of state reunions and their
value not merely as pleasant social
gatherings but as important factors in
the upbuilding of towns and sections
DR.. Fowler is especially well informed
on this subject and an enthusiastic
supporter of the Ohio society which
was organized here three years ago
largely through his efforts, in recog-
milton of which he was elected its first
president.
