A Utah Buck Duel

Last Saturday afternoon while
Jim Maxwell was riding along
near "Jumpup" in the Kaibab
Forest, he came suddenly upon
two deer. One had killed the
other in a life duel and had his
horns fastened in the dead ones
body in such way that it was
impossible for him to free him
self. They had probably been
in this condition for several
days before Mr.. Maxwell found
them. He went Immediately
to the nearest telephone to ad-
wise the Supervisor as to what
to do. Supervisor Harris told
him by all means to free the
deer if possible. Then Mr.. Max
we'll, accompanied by Ed. Cox,
hunter, went back to the scene
OF battle where they took. sew
eral photographs of the strug-
Cling deer. And together they
decided that it would be impos-
sible to cut the deer free with
out endangering their own lives.
SO they killed the deer and Mr..
Maxwell brought it to Kanab
where arrangements will be
made to have it mounted. Kane

1915 ALRICHT---LETS
MAKE 1916 BETTER

The year 1915, barring that
hail storm the last of August,
was a banner one for Snowflake.
Many handsome residences were
erected, several additions and
improvements made to old homes
and one business house con-
structed during the year.
Business in all lines was good,
no contagious diseases visited
us, and the people generally
were prosperous, healthy, happy
and contented.
But Snowflake, with all her
good points, is lacking in a few
that a town of this size cannot
we'll afford to overlook. We
should have good water and
sewage systems, electric lights
and cement sidewalks. A pub
lie park would be a great addi-
ton to the town. A band stand
could be erected in the park and
open air concerts given of nights
throughout the warm season.
We could mention many more
improvements and additions that
would greatly benefit the town.
We understand that two more
business houses are to be erected
in the early spring and many
new residences are contemplated
for next summer. There is also
talk of the establishing of a
planning mill and lumber yard
within the town limits in the
near future.
We have the climate, other
inducing qualities and enough
people to make Snowflake SOME
town. Why not see to it that
we DO something, everyone of
us, in the way of boosting and
improving it in more ways than
one during the year 1916?

Reported Caught in Storm

John Eagar and family, for
mer Snowflake residents, left
Utah overland on Dec. % for
this place to again make their
home. The route agreed on was
by way of Lees Ferry and Tuba
City, thence to Winslow. On
account of the big storm last
week, and believing they had
just about time to reach the
country north of Winslow, where
the snow was reported very
deep, some uneasiness was felt
for their safety. So Milford
Rogers, son-in-law of Mr.. Eagar,
left with an outfit for the coun-
try north of Winslow in search
of the party. Nothing up to
date mas been heard from Will
ford, but rumor is that Mr.. Ea-
gar's folks stopped at Tuba while
the snow storm was raging.

RECENT STORM WAS
FAR-REACHING One

While many of this section
no doubt believe that we were
given the larger part of the
recent snow storm, yet it is not
the fact. The storm reached
way into California, and south
ern Arizona did not entirely es-
cape. At Tucson it left four
inches of the beautiful" while
Phoenix, Mesa and other noted
winter resorts had a light fall.
Yuma, however, was missed.
Northern Arizona, as was to
be expected, had a-plenty and
some to spare. Winslow enjoyed
a two-foot fall, Prescott a like
amount, but at Flagstaff the
snow fell to depth of fifty-two
inches. The snow was very
hefty in Flagstaff, many roofs
caving in. mostly of warehouse
buildings, but the greatest loss
was that of the Majestic opera
house, which, with the excep-
ton of a portion of the front
walls, was completely demol-
ished by the heavy weight upon
the roof. The collapse happened
at 6 o'clock last Friday morning.
If it had come in the early even
ing no doubt many people would
have been crushed to death, as
a moving picture show had the
building leased and held forth
nightly.
South of Snowflake the storm
also came. Over two feet was
reported from Pinedale, Linden
and Showlow, still deeper at
Lakeside, while at Pinetop and
Cooley's the snow is deeper yet,
although we have no exact re-
port of the fall from these two
places.
The fall in Snowflake and vi
cinity was nearly one foot, the
biggest snow seen here in sew
eraI years. At the present, how
ever, the snow here h a S
almost disappeared, only patch
now and then being diplayed.
But the storm will be of great
benefit, especially in the noun
tain sections, as it assures good
range and water for the stock
man, and put smile on the
dry farmer.
