 BORDERLAND HIS ROUTE

evident that the sturdy HoOsier would encounter grief in the snowy White Mountains. so he was advised to make his run via Tucson and Fl Paso on the Borderland rOute-which he knows thoroughly from his motorcycle race from Fl Paso here last fall.
 The Hassayampa is thought will be passable Thursday afternoon when the touring party arrives.
 Baker plans to make Phoenix by Thursday night, and will drive like the human dynamo he is, in order to keep on schedule. He figures to do the best time possible in the bad stretches at the outset of his 3.400 mile journey, so he can loaf on the last end if he's ahead or step on 'er in case he is behind.
 The schedule he has prepared Will put him in New York City something under fl days from his start in San Diego. He plans to do every mile of the. driving by himself.

THE LATEST MAN

George w. Coleman, president of the city council and head of the Ford Hall Forum, told the following story at a recent dinner of the Pilgrim Publicity association:
 "A farmer had twenty employees on his farm, and as none of them was as energetic as the farmer thought he should be. he hit upon a plan which he believed would cure them of their lazy habits.
 Men, he said one morning, T have a nice, easy job for the laziest man on the farm. Will the laziest man step forward?'
 Instantly nineteen of the men stepped forward.
 Why don't you step to the front with the rest? inquired the farmer of the remaining one.
 Too much trouble came the reply Boston Record.

 conflicts in the history of the United States. It was called for September 23, 1913 On that date thousands of miners laid down their tools Those living upon the property of the coal companies loaded up their household goods and moved out, most of them settling in tent colonies established by the union. The largest of these tent colonies was at Ludlow a few miles north of Trinidad and in close proximity to the Hastings, Delagua, Tabasco, Berwind and Forbes mines
 Violence began early in the strike. There was a series of clashes in the Ludlow and Forbes neighborhood, and on October 20 the National Guard of Colorado, on orders from Governor F. M. AmmonS, took pos session of the coal mining districts.
 It was in one of the Ludlow fights before the arrival of the state militia that John Nimmo was killed. Nimmo was one of a force of deputies sta toned at the Ludlow section house under command of K. F.. Linderfelt. Linderfelt, a witness for the prosecu- tion, said the deputies were ordered by the then Sheriff James $. Gris- ham to preserve order and prevent trouble between strikers and mine guards. Early in the afternoon of October 25. 1913 fight started be- tween these deputies and a large body of strikers. Firing ragged in the arroyas and railroad cuts until evening. Some time during the battle Nimmo was shot through the leg, bleeding 70 death
 Lawson was charged with the homocide on the theory of the prose cution that he was in charge of the tent colony and in command of the strikers during the battle. The in formation upon which Lawson was tried was filed by the attorneys gen eral of Colorado in February of this year The original indictment was

sure the board of governors for set ting aside s1,OOO for the support of the MaricOpa county farm advisor. While approving of the farm advisor. the members thought the appropria . tIon ought to have originated in the council. A motion contafnisg this complaint was tabled by vote of IA to 6.
 Old Board Meeting
 The old board met in the morning and plunged into the routine of clear ing decks for the new organization. Predominant among the things con- sidered. was a plan to investigate the loss of water in the distributing system. Estimates will be sought on plans to save this wasted water with the idea of making the water go as far as possible and at the same time to cut down the cost of main tenance
 The owners of such of the 32.OOO acres as were ready for cultivation when the survey boards report was made up were invited to present their case to the association so that they might have list prepared for sub mission to the proper authorities.
 Joint Meeting
 The joint meeting discussed Engi- neer w. R. Elliotts report on pump ing plants submitted to the board of governors at it's April meeting Here, too. it was necessary to defer action in order that there might be no mis- take in presenting matters before the public and particularly the mem bers of the Water Users Association
 Exception was taken to illustrations of the possible harm to the soil by the continued use of a small per centage of pumped water based on the assumption that 100 per cent of the water with it's harmful contents would remain in the soil. motion to have the report printed and sent to all the members of the association was amended to direct the secretary to reSubmit the report to the engi- neer for completion.
 Questions brought from Engineer Elliott the fact that in reality prob ably as much as 75 per cent of the water carrying soluble contents returned to the river level. It was feared that the report would be mis- construed and give a bad impression tG those who would read it without careful study and attention to that part explaining the bug bear" illus strations that were used. The amend ment was lost on a roll call in which the vote was, in the board 6 for against; in the council II for the amendment and 15 against.
 There was much more discussion and then the meeting took charac- tcristic method of avoiding a disturb ing subject It entertained a motion to adjourn before the question could be called on the original motion and this was carried to 2 in the board and 14 to 12 in the council.
 The board afterWard sformally de- ferred action on the report for an other month.

Knight motors and chassis weighing only 1900 pounds. They will be driven bv Hughie Hughes. winner of the 1911 Savannah, Charles Keene, a place win ner in the Indianapolis race last year, and Neil Whalen, a former National star.
 Little information is available con corning the Sebring. save that it is an Ohio car, built at Youngstown. No driver has yet been named for it, though it is thought there will be little difficulty in this respect, as there is a world of material available.

 NEW YORK CITY, May Bob Burman. the worlds speed king. has severed his connection with the Peu geot racing team for the next Indian apolis 5C0-n.ile race, and will drive that contest independently.
 The reason for Bob's withdrawal is that he is so pleased with the showing of his rebuilt Peugeot which recently helped him to the undisputed worlds dirt track championship. and won the Oklahoma City road race for him. that he prefers it to a regular Peugeot entry.
