Wireless Telegraphy has ar
rived, and class has been
formed in charge of Prof.
Shuler. Considerable interest
has beer aroused among the
students by the starting of this

com mon a thing that it be-
hooves all of us to be better in
formed concerning it. A re-
ceiving station will be install
ed as soon as the weather
will permit. A sending

extended within the last few
weeks and now covers Min

possible for us to receive the

earlier than it is received in the
newspapers.

NetU UndersheriH ArriUes

A nine pound boy baby was born to MT. and Mrs. W. G. Clemens early Wednesday morn ing. Mother and child are doing nicely, but the father is in a serious condition, according to the judgment of friends. He insists that his son is a prodigy; that no such infant was ever born until this one arrived, and that in a few months at most, the youngster will be competent to attend to all the duties of the undersheriff's office.
 Some of Undersberiff Clemons' friends are hoping that he is correct in his opinion of his sons prowess, and should such be the case they will insist that the first official act performed by the youngster be the incarceration of his father in padded cell.

The Railroad Strike

The referendum vote on the proposed railroad strike came to a close last Monday. The result of the vote, while not yet off, cially announced, is understood to have been practically unani- nous in favor of conferring upon the official board of the railway workers powers to call a strike.
 The consequence will be that at the next conference of railway managers and chiefs of the brotherhoods. the latter will be armed with the authority to de- clare a strike. The grave ques- tion is whether they will exercise that authority. Evidently their belief is that if they have such authority, the railway managers, knowing it. will grant conces- sions rather than run the risks of a strike of important employees. The managers have offered to submit the differences to arbltra- ton and arbitration probably will be the outcome of the confer ence. Certainly the brotherhood officials will hesitate long before they would plunge the country into great strike the results of which no man could predict. The brotherhood chieftains. if the strike wins, will be clothed with grave responsibility.

Important Court Decision


 Last Saturday Judge Sapp 1T superior court rendered a deci- sion in case that had been ir court for nearly two years. This is the case of the Snowflake Taylor Irrigation Company against the Navajo-Apache Bank 6 Trust Co.,, and involved the use of water in Ortega lake.
 By the terms of the decree made by Judge Sapp the defen- dant corporation is permitted to maintain dam in the lake simi- lar to the one in use prior to the fling of the suit in 1914. In other words, the conditions existing prior to the commencement of the suit by the plaintiff corporation, which were evidently satisfac- tory to both parties, are restored.
 This is one of the cases in which the court decree is based on justice and equity to both parties; it is satisfactory to the attorneys for the two litigants and will no doubt be satisfactory to the principals.
 Attorney c. H. Jordan repre- sented the plaintiff and Attorney F. w. Nelson the defendant.

Burglar Robs Pool Hall

The pool hall and barber shoI owned by James Armstrong at Winslow was burglarized some time early Friday morning and over $200 in twenty, ten and five dollar gold pieces were taken from a punch board, which had not been put in the safe for the night.
 The officers think it probable that it was some one who knew that the punch boards were not locked up for the night, and took advantage of their knowledge of the place, it being a very popular one for the male population of WinsloW.

Bond Election Called

In another column of the News appears the notice of a bond election which has been called for Tuesday, August p, by the school trustees of the Holbrook district. This election has been called for the purpose of secur- ing additional funds to complete and equip the new school build ing, a contract for the construc- tion of which was let last week.
 It is the intention of the trustees to use the $8000, if vot- ed by the taxpayers of the dis trict, in finishing the building in accordance with the original plans; in improving the grounds about the building. and possibly purchasing a playground, and in furnishing new equipment for use in the various departments.
 The action of the school board in calling an election to vote more bonds IS the only possible way in which adequate school facilities can be secured. To con- struct such a building sufficient funds are not available; hence more money must be secured. and a bond issue in the best way to secure it.

Sheepherders Killed bu Lightning

Two Mexican sheepherders were killed by lightning some time last Saturday afternoon in their tent, about 8 miles south west of Dry Lake. The names of the men are Cipriano Mar quez and Altofo Nuanes; they were employed by Frank God dard, and when killed were in charge of a flock of Goddard's s sheep.
 The bodies of the men were discovered Monday morning by the owner and word was brought to Holbrook Tuesday morning. Judge Boyer. ex-oficio coroner, summoned a jury of six men and, accompanied by Sheriff Newman, repaired to the scene.
 The dead men were found in their tent where they had sought shelter from the storm. Their bodies were Tn such shape that they could not be moved. The verdict of the jury was in ac- cordance with the above stated facts. The bodies were after wards buried in a shallow. grave close to where they had been found. The homes of the two men are thought to be near Albuquerque, and Judge Boyer will make an effort to in- form their friends of their deaths.
