Messrs. Alexander and Driscoll, two
young railroad men and two lady
friends came near happening to a Sc
rious accident Sunday afternoon while

flying when another car passed them
causing more dust, Both cars were
running fast enough when the Max
well driven by Mr.. Alexander, had q
"blow-out" on the rear right tire. The
car was running in deep track and
lurched sidewise smashing the right
front wheel, every spoke being knock
ed from the hub. One of the young

W|NOSTORM BLOWS
ROOFS OFF HOUSES

Tucumcari has had many storms,
and especially wind storms where the
dust is knee deep in your eyes and
breathing apparatus, but Monday dur
ing the night n storm came from the
north. No doubt il was one of the old
Kansas twisters coming back to New
Mexico.
1t began in the evening with an i'm
imitation rain followed by "a strong
wind. 1t kept getting stronger until
about IL o'clock when it ceased for
a minute, then came the climax. 1t
took roofs off Of houses, overturned
outbuildings and did much other Sc
rious damage.
Two large brick chimneys were
blown off the Central School building.
| The west side of the Farmers Home
Wagon Yard was blown several feet
and turned over.
| Luther Rains garage was lifted off
of his auto and smashed. The car was
only slightly damaged.
The roof was blown Off of Phil Sha-
hans house and scattered half mile.
His barn was smashed and other dam
age done in that vicinity.
The roof was blown off the the Full
Ter house in south part of town.
Sam Eddleman's barn was smashed
and his front porch was torn half off
by the storm.
| A shed was unroofed for Mrs. Anna
DeOliviera.
DR.. j. +. Manney's barn was un.
rooted.
One of the north front windows in
the Sands Dorsey Drug Store was a
victim and smashed in million OF
more pieces on the side walk.
The Dixon garage was unroofed.
There were numerous other build
ing damaged but luck was with Tu
cumcari and the citizens are thankful
it was no worse.

ERTELL WATSON DIES

The eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs. ].
r. Wasson, who fell from horse
week ago, became suddenly worse or
Wednesday of this week and was at
once brought to Tucumcari for treat
ment. He was suffering with pain
in his right lower bowels, and died be-
fore much service could be rendered.
The young boy was riding horse
and driving cows when he accidentally
fell off. He did not seem to suffer very
much but his parents noticed Wednes-
day that he was not acting just right.
He was hurried to town but death re-
lieved his sufferings before his life
could be spared. The family has the
sympathy of the entire community.

THOUSANDS SPENT IN
SECURING BATTLE SCENES
J. Stuart Blackton Offers Many Soul
Stirring Thrills in His Wonderful
Photoplay-Womanhood, the
Glory of the Nation.

Perhaps the most realistic, vivid
battle scenes ever filmed are offered
TO the audience at The Opera House
on Monday and Tuesday when Vita
graph presents, "Womanhood, The
Glory Of the Nation" the soul-stirring
patriotic spectacle by J. Stuart Black
ton, starring Alice Joyce and Harry
Morey.
As far as the human eye can reach
is the battlefield strewn here and there
with the heroes who have fallen in
honor that their country might live.
The air is dusky with the smoke of
conflict and bombs burst, continually
rising clouds of dirt as they tear up
IA goodly portion of the ground.
Then the trenches with their men
leaning upwards, rifles aimed at the
approaching foe are seen-airships en-
circle the field, dropping poisonous gas
bombs and other deadly missiles on
the men fighting beneath.
Then comes the decisive naval bat
| ties after America has concentrated
every energy and prepared herself
for the terrific onslaught of the foe
! The fleets move seaward N majes-
tic line, every gun manned by an ex-
pert marksman and every boiler at
tended by devoted men. Now shell
sent from the enemy's ship finds its
mark and shoots through the water
leaving behind it the dead white trail
of foam. Finally it comes into con-
tact with the ship and in a few mo.
ments hundreds have been claimed by
a watery grave. The men in the boiler
room fight one another like rats in o
hole as they feel their vessel give 9
lurch sideways and realize their means
lof escape is cut off.
When war visits its horrors upor
any land its inhabitants become crazet
and sacrifices untold are suffered by
the people. There is no limit i.
murderous slaughter and the side con
ceiving the most effective instrument
of destruction is naturally victorious.
Then Uncle Sam plays his truml
card--he sets his "frebugs" loose ami,
the enemy's ships and in another fey
minutes victory is recognized. Thes
"frebugs" are small boats steered b.
wireless 20 that no men are neeessar
and filled with gasoline which is sc
aiire when they reach the fleet of tn
enemy and turn the water into cur
tain of fire.
Mr. Blacton spared no effort or ex
pense that these scenes might be au
thentic to the minutest detail in OF
der that the proper atmosphere be sc
cured and he was generously give
the cooperation of the U. S. Arm
and Navy as far as practicable.
Therefore, all the battle scenes mos
graphically portray just the condition
as they will appear.

A. {. HUFF, JR.

In the midst of life we are sur
rounded by death. Sometimes we have
degree of appreciation of the fact
but generally we live our lives as
though no Great Beyond existed, but
when death comes suddenly and calls
a youth in apparently perfect health,
we are made TO pause.
Austin C. Huff, born May 8, 1899.
while in apparently perfect health,
sickened and in two days time, passed
away-June l3, 1917.
He was young man of exceptional
character. At twelve years of age he
surrendered to the Master and be-
came Christian, and as he grew old
er he was devoting his splendid tai
ents actively TO the Lords work. He
made it practice TO memorize u chap
ter of the Word every week, and knew
much of the New Testament. He was
looking to the ministry for his life's
work and had already shown consid-
cradle ability as leader, so his sud-
den and early departure was a source
of keen disappointment to those who
had built high hopes for the future of
the cause in his hands. Hfs father, A.
c. Huff, who lives several miles from
Montoya and shepherds a church of
Christ in a country community, his
mother, five brothers, and five sisters
one of them his twin sister-sorely
mourn his death, and the community
sorrows with them.
The Christians hope is their com
fort and solace in this dark hour. An
avowed Christian, not content with a
mere profession, but actively serving
his Lord, is leading life as guiltless
as babes, and we have every rea-
son for full assurance that pains OF
death here were but the birth pangs
of eternal life, to which we likewise
may attain where there will be such a
multitude of blissful reunions, and the
partings be known no more.
Norris j. Reasoner.

Tucumcari News,
Mr.. Editor:
The village of McAlister is on the
"boom" CD as there are two we'll
drills in operation here ut the same
time.
The judges and clerks held the Road
Bond Election at the Await store in
stead of at the School House, which is
II mile away from said McAlister
school house. The county commission
er's emphatically stated that election
above mentioned should be held at the
"School House"
II would be good idea for the
Board" to get the McAlister politi-
clans opinion as to where and how
to hold any election that might be
held in the future, as the Boards in
structions seem to be Of little impor-
tance when compared to the Stately
Grandeloquent and Rule or Ruin John
Henries now residing in the sticks and
vicinity composing Precinct No. II
Quay county, New Mexico.
!, E. b. Sprinkle, voted FOR" the
Road Bonds and 54 others voted
Against them, in above said McAlister
The above said 81 do. not want to &c
nor come, but want everybody else tc
go and never come back.
L. B. SPRINKLE.
Editors Note)-Mr. Sprinkle, thu
other paragraph with reference to thu
school teachers and other local affairs
might get US in bad If we were t.
publish same. For that reason w
hesitate in printing same. Perhaps
this matter will right itself If thu
change you mention takes place. A
least it is to be hoped II will.
