Macleay News Notes

Macleay, Or, Sept. THE untimely
rain of Saturday and Sunday caught
many farmers unawares with the re
suit that good deal of the unthreshed
grain was still in shock. One or two per.
SONS were fortunate enough to have
theirs stacked but the majority is still
in the field. About half of the Ma
cleay territory has been covered by the
threshers. Two machines have been in
the district this year, the Darby and
Lewis machine of Shaw and the Mar
tin & Wright machine of Maeleay, the
latter has about week 's run yet be-
fore the season is over; this run being
in the north and west section of
Macleay.
When last reported the Martin and
Wright machine was at the +. Schultz
farm. Earl Bushnell, engineer of this
machine, recently received notice that
his bid on the construction of the
bridge in Portland had been accepted,
and departed at once for the metropo-
lis. o. l.. Martin is acting in the ca.
pacity Of engineer at present.

No animal is so intimately and af-
fectionately associated with the circus
as the elephant and probably none is
more sagacious. With the Barnum &
Bailey circus which comes here Satur-
day, September 8, are over two score
of the ponderous creatures all in charge
of Harry j. Mooney, the famous Aus
tralian animal trainer.
To the uninitiated the huge slate
colored beasts look the same. But
Mooney says that there are no two
alike.
Elephants are useful as well as orna-
mental in the menagerie world If
ever heavy wagon gets caught in a
quagmire and the horses fail to pull it
along, the only thing necessary is to
bring along an elephant.
"Just push, don't shove" runs the
coon song. That is what the elephant
does, and the wagon bowls along as if
a small-sized cyclone had struck it.
Strong elephants can easily push two
loaded freight cars.
N'For years. Mr.. Mooney said, in a
recent interview, elephants have been
the Eastern mans best friend. They
have been jacks of all trades, working
in timber and lumber fields, taking
part in big hunts and forming the
backbone of state and ceremonial
professions. But now, aside from oc-
casional hunts, all they seem to be
needed for is heavy hauling and pulling
the ploughs in the agricultural dis
tricts. In the latter case, at least, it
has been found that the elephant
hasn It his peer, and the native won't
even exchange for him the modern
machinery. Why might not the same
prove true on this continent? Think
of the great wheat fields in the West
and in Canada that the giant beasts
might help to till!
"The worth of the elephant has
never been fully appreciated by the
average American, nor even those who
delve into natural history. Perhaps
that accounts for the fact that his only
value here seems to be- for show pur-
poses in circuses or geological
gardens"
To the circus visitor the menagerie
means strange animals and thrills,
popcorn and peanuts. TO the circus
company it means something like $780,
900. This figure, however, is by no
means arbitrary, for the value of wild
beasts fluctuates remarkably. Today
the value of a rhinoceros may be $lO,-
900 but let few more rhinos be hauled
from their African lairs and be put on
the European market and the value
per animal may drop 80 per cent.
Another thing that affects the valu-
alton of wild animals is the question
as to whether they are acclimated or
"green." The mortality rate among
the latter animals fresh from the jun
gle-is exceedingly high. The wild
animal that has demonstrated the fact
that it can live in a cage, particularly
cage that hops, skips and jumps over
the country with circus, has more
than tripled its value.

TRAIN SAFE RES|STS
BANDITS EFFORTS
Held Up Crew and Captured
Safe But Could Not Blow
1t Open

Douglas, Ariz., Sept IA second
posse left here at daybreak today to
reinforce the posse of Sheriff Wheeler,
now believed chasing six bandits who
held up the Golden State Limited on
the Rock Island road near Apache,
shortly before midnight.
A switch engine and three automo-
biles were used to rush 90 men under
Wheeler to the scene. Word was re-
ceived early today that Sheriff Wheeler,
a former captain of rangers, is now
pressing the robbers closely.
Trainmen who faced the bandits re.
volvers for nearly SO minutes while
they vainly strove to shatter the ex-
press safe with nitro-glycerine, declared
they believed the bandits amateurs.
The posse under Sheriff Wheeler has
been given an excellent description of
the bandits and is supplied with food
and water for several days pursuit.
1t is believed the robbers fled up an
arroyo to mountains 20 miles east,
where the forbidding nature of the
country would make pursuit very diff
ficult.
The fact that the robbers used six
charges of nitro-glycerine on the safe
without results seemed to confirm the
belief that the cracksmen were anna
teurs.
Two men boarded the limited near
Apache station and forced the train
crew to cut off the engine and three
leading cars, the express car and two
mail coaches from the passenger sec
ton. Then the robbers ordered the en-
gineer to pull down the track three
miles to point near bridge where
four confederates waited. The train
crew was forced to line up within 20
feet of camp fire. Two masked men
with four revolvers covered them. Four
bandits then tumbled the steel safe from
the express car and set to work with the
first charge of nitro-glycerine This
attempt was failure, as were five
others. Finally, when several cracks
men became nervous, the crew was Or
dered into mail car and bolted in. The
bandits Immediately fled eastward on
cow ponies
