DR.. Kulbs a British physician, has
been investigating the effect of siren
uous exercise on the condition of the
organs during growth and adolescence.
Dogs were made to exercise on a
treadmill during various periods, while
other animals of the same filters we're
kept as controls" The result was
considerable growth, especially Of the
heart and liver. Similar changes were
found in young swine treated In the
same way. The increase In the bulk
of the muscles was not so great as
that in the heart in dogs. Even the
marrow of the bones was affected. The
working animals showed good, red
marrow and the resting ones yellow,
fatty marrow. The doctor asserts
that the results of his experiments
confirm what psychologists have
taught, that exercise, especially in the
young, eXerts beneficial influence not
only on the skeleta muscles but also
on the internal organs. All animals
living in a free condition indulge in
violent movements and hunting games
when young Thus also we find mas.
sive hearts in persons who have fol.
lowed strenuous calling, as com.
pared with the hearts of those who
have had sedentary occupation.

DESCRIBES BATTLE At BLUFF
BETWEEN INDIANS AND POSSE

Real war whoops and battle lasting
all day between Marshal Nebeker and
his deputies and the Indians under
Poke and Pasey on Feb. 81, are de-
scribed in a letter from former Rep
resentative Francis Nielsen Of Bluff
IN his brother-in-law' Representative
Wayne H. Redd, in part the letter is
as follows:
Just at daybreak on the morning
of Feb 81, the town was aroused by
the war whoops of the Indians, follow
ed a few seconds later by the report
of guns, volley after volley and simul
taneous for two hours or more, and
in fact almost during the entire day
with a lull occasionally. The Indians
had the best of it from the beginning
as they soon scurried into the guilies
and ravines, which protected them,
while the dupties had to fight more
or less in the open. Besides, the de-
puties had ridden from Grayson the
night before in one of the w"rs'
storms and billiards. that has been
known in years, and must have been
chilled to the bone.
1.-THE posse passed through Bluff and
went west through the lane. The In
dams we're camped in the hills lit
tie north and west of Mr.. Harshberg-
er's house across the Cottonwood
wash. AS soon as the dupties got
across the wash, the war whoop "a
real one) occurred. And then they
commenced firing on the posse of de
putty marshals.
Part of the deputies dismounted
and commenced to return the fire
closing in on the Indians. The bal
ance dashed up the wash, past and
beyond the Indians. In the position
they practically had the Indians sur
rounded. 1t was at this time that
part of the Indians came out with
their hands up and surrendered. II
was also at this time that Man
cos Jim and Dutchy were sent to the
war zone with white flags to try and
induce Poke and his boy and also
Posey's boy to surrender, but were
told they would fight till they died
and for them to get out OF there OF
they would kill them. However, wher
they did go, Poke and the boys took
advantage of the situation and KEEP
Mancos Jim and Dutchy on the lint
between them and the deputies, wht
were in q position to shoot them, bu
could not do so without danger o
hitting Mancos Jim. They got quite
distance by this means, and were
soon In the rocks and climbed vi
through crack in the rocks directl!
over Scarup's reservoir on the higl
cliff and began firing down tina
position, having long range high pow
er guns.
1T was then that the dupties
troubles began in earnest. Posey ant
his band who were camped two o
three miles below, hearing the shoot
ing, came to the rescue, meeting

and used 1t to get into the position

deputies.

ut certainly looked at this time as
il the dupties would be used up, and
it was at this time that Monticello
and Grayson were phoned to for as
Stance. None too soon, however, as
the Indians cut the line in four places
a few minutes later, and it could not
be repaired until late the next day.
Five of the dupties were cut off
and were out all that night. The bal
ance got back to town, one of their
number being shot through and
through, but he hung on to his horse
until he got to town.
"Posey and his band held the
ground the rest of the day, firing
back and forth at long range but re-
tired to Butler wash during the night
Next day Polk and his crowd were
tracked north to Spring canyon then
vast across the Cottonwood and Tank
bench to Butler weSh, where he join
ed Posey and his band. The Navahos

dreamed Of.
I'VE have lived here 35 years and
have endeavored to cultivate FRIEND

This climax had to come. There wal

BATS TO KILL MOSQUITOES.
Texas Doctor Makes Important Ex-
pertinent.

Texas Doctor Makes Important Ex-
pertinent.
A San Antonio. Tex, dispatch says:
There was mild amusement a year or
so ago when DR.. A. c. Campbell of
this city, announced his plans for a
municipal bat roost as a solution Of
the malaria-mosquito problem in this
section. Despite the oddity of his sug-
gestion, the plan was given a trial.
A municipal roost capable Of hous-
ing 100000 bats was built and the bats
were colonized. In a short time the
mosquito plague was noticed to be de-
clining. and with the continued opera
ton Of the bat roost the number Of
mosquitoes in the city is appreciably
less.
San Antonio not only operates the
bat roost, but by city ordinance has
prohibited the slaughter of bats, and
has, through its legislators. introduc-
ed bill in the state legislature for
statewide bat protection.
DR.. Campbell spent fourteen years
bringing his bat roost to perfection
and devising methods of attracting the
bats to the roosts after their compile
ton. The experimental roosts were
erected near Mitchell lake, in the
worst malarial sections of the state.
A farmer living in that section de-
clared:
II could not keep my horses penned
up because they would break out in
order to escape the hordes Of mosqui-
toes which made life burden. Since
the bats were colonized here we are
not molested by mosquitoes"
Surgeon General w. c. Gorgas. who
made the Canal zone free from ma
laria, has recently investigated the
merits of the roost and is greatly
pleased with the efficacy Of the odd
device. "It seems to me this field has
great possibilities" he said, land l
would gladly recommend it in all cases
Of malarial work"
Each bat will eat on an average $50
mosquitoes each night.
1t is a mistake to imagine that any
sort of an old barn or tumbledown
house will attract bats. DR.. Campbell
learned through years Of experimental
tion that the roosts must be built in
accord with the singular habits Of the
bats, which much be attracted by a
| chemical giving off an odor similar
to that of a large number of bats con-
gregated in a small area.
One bat roost will protect an area
ranging from seven to ten miles, DR..

AN UNJUST BURDEN
Demand an international Conference
on Tare.

DcTndnQ an intcTHdpoHdi SoHIVToUCc
on Tare.
Commissioner Graham Of North
Carolina, in a recent letter to Secretary
Houston gives the historical explana-
ton of the matter Of cotton tare by
saying:
prior to 1866 the weight Of bale
Of cotton was generally $50 pounds.
The bagging and ties then, as now,
weighed 81 to % pounds, that is,
per cent Of the weight Of a bale at
that time, and that amount was fixed
by the Liverpool authorities on this
subject as the tare. Since that time
the weight Of the bale has been in
creased to 500 pounds or more, but
per cent Is still fixed as the tare, which
Is 80 pounds or about eight pounds
more than the actual weight Of the
tare, or practically g. dollar a bale.
This is fixed at Liverpool and Is de-
Quoted in fixing the price"
The remedy lies, we believe, as the
association Of Southern Agricultural
Workers assert, in an international
ard. South Carolina has passed a law
requiring buyers to allow farmers to
put on the full per cent, but natur-
ally there is difficulty in enforcing
one tare rule in one cotton producing
state and another rule in another state.
The real solution lies in having the
United States government arrange for
a conference with English representa-
tives and provide that hereafter the
tare should be only, say A per cent.
Then Europe would allow for only
22s pounds Of bagging and ties on a
500 pound bale Of cotton and pay for
cotton a price correspondingly higher
than that which she how pays on the
basis Of allowing thirty pounds for
tare.
Every farmer interested in this mat
ter should write to his United States
senator and to Secretary Of Agricul-
ture D. F. Houston, Washington, D.
c.. and urge their help in getting an
international conference on cotton tare.

CHAPTER xxi.
The VaIIev of Dry Bones.

he valley OF Ory oohes-
The cyclonic summer storr. had
blown itself out, and the clouds were
beginning to break away in the west,
when Griswold, oDeying Marsery's
urging to go home and charge his
clothes, turned his back upon v4ere-
side and his face toward future OF
thiclkening doubts and unnervins POS
sibilities.
Griswold had ret deceived himself,
nor had he allowed Margerys appar-
ent confinement to deceive him. The
old mans mind had not beer wander
ing in the eye-opening moment of con-
sciousness regaineG. On the contrary,
what he had failed to do under ordi-
nary and conventional conditions had
become instantly possible when the
plunge into the dark shadow had
brushed away all the artificial be-
cloudings Of the memory page. What
recover was as easy to prefigure as 1t
was, for the present at least, matter
negligible. The dismaying thing was
that the broad earth seemed too mar
row to hide in; that invention itself
became the clumsiest Of blunderers
when it was given the simple task Of
losing a single individual among the
millions of unrelated human atoms.
Thus the threat Of the peril which
might be called the physical. But be-
yond this there was another, and, for
a man of temperament, a still more
ominous foreshadowing Of evil to
come. or some subtle, deep-seated
change in himself he had long been
conscious. Again and again it had
manifested itself in those moments Of
craven fear and ruthless, murdercus
promptings, when kindliness, graft
tude, love, all the humanizing motives,
had turned suddenly to frenzied ha-
tired, and the primitive savage had
leaped up, fercely raging with the
blood-lust.
For a long time after he had reach
ed his room, and had his bath and
change, Griswold sat at his writing
table with his hand in his hands,
thinking in monotonous circles.
The tiny Ginning clock in his dress
ing case in the adjoining bedroom had
tinkled forth it's 10 tapping hammer
strokes when he heard voices in the
lower hall, and then mans footsteps
on the stair. To a hard-pressed break
er of the traditions at such moment
an unannounced visitor, coming up in
the dark, could mean but one thing.
Griswold silently opened drawer in
the writing table and groped for the
mate to the quick-firing pistol which
after the change of wet clothing. he
had put aside to dry.
The visitor came heavily upstairs,
and Griswold, swinging his chair to
face the open door, saw the shadowy
