TOM HUGHES BACK
 FROM COAST TRIP

'The cat always comes back" and so do Bisbeeites when they sojourn in foreign fields. Tom Hughes, who has but recently returned from a trip to the coast, is willing to admit that while his journey was filled with pleas ant experiences, the next-to-the-most- pleasant was the getting back
 Among those pleasant experiences were visits to Long Beach, Ocean Park Santa Monica, Venice and San Diego; and it was at the last named place that he saw a sight common in France but rare on this side of the water. It was a large number of aeroplanes in the air at the same time, Is being counted. An aeIoplane is still enough of a novelty to attract attention when flying alone and a veritable battalion of giant machines sweeping through battle evolutions high in the air is a sight MT. Hughes admits he shan't for get for a long, long time.
 California is wonderful" he says, ''and shall probably return in few months and motor from Los Angeles to San Francisco. But after that trip, as after the trip have just made, shall be mighty glad to get back home"
 And the most pleasant experience of his vacation? Easyi It was join ing Mrs. Hughes and daughter at Long Beach.

a thirst emporium to let him house the cub in the basement of his saloon.
 The incident of the cubs quarters for the night almost resulted in Roose- welt missing the gift that was to add to his fame About midnight the bar ran short of a certain brand of liquora and the barkeep sent porter down to the basement with five gallon jug for a fresh supply. The earnest and hard working porter filled the jug from a barrel by the light of candle and started for the stairs when the cub rolled out from behind box and started for him, being lonely and anx- ious to make friends. By the flicker ing flame of the candle the cub show ed up like a full grown grizzly, and the porter dropped his jug with a yell and went up stairs on his hands and knees at a spraddling gallop and rushed in the barroom seeking for a gun.
 The barkeep, enraged at the loss of the whisky, was going to kill both the porter and the bear, but the proprie- tor intervened. It was a gift for Ted dy, and that fact saved the cubs life.
 Chicken" went to Grand Canyon with his gift and Roosevelt received it with his well known smile and thank ed the giver with his well known earnestness and sincerity.
 "A bear for Teddy was the way Chicken" put it when he presented the cub, and the newspaper cores pondents did the rest 'Teddybear" was born that day, from the words ''Teddy's bear, and the dispatches to the country at large placed almost as much stress upon Chickens" gift as they did on the canyon.
 Then came a young woman artist with the fluffy velvet creation of the teddybear toy for children. This lit tie brown bear looked so much like real cub; looked so cute and fetching and life-like that he leaped into favor at a bound He became the pet in hundreds of thousands of homes But he would never have been known and loved by the children if it had not

 The vast amount of work that has to be done both in and behind the lines, work which is mainly done by regular infantrymen, is hard for the layman to realize.

The death Of Chicken Dick Har1- man up in Dubacher Canyon near BisOee a few days ago marked the passing of an old timer of Chocise county who has made history, as his tCry goes in thes modern days when romance is no more. Chicken Dick" is the man who invented, or designed, or originated the famous Teddy bear" title of Theodore Roosevelt, and was therefore responsible, in a way for the millions of cute little, brwon little teddy bears that have delighted the hearts of young, and old folks as well, for the past ten years.
 It all happened in this way:
 About the time that President TheO- dOre Roosevelt came to Arizona 10 visit the Grand Canyon in his first ad- ministration, Chicken Dick" was engaged in the occupation from which he derived his nickname raising chickens down the canyon and selling fresh eggs at his own price 10 the epicures in Bisbee. Be it known here, by way of further explanation, that before Chicken became en- gagged in this most peaceful and hon orable calling. he was lookout man for one of the many fiourishing faro games that held forth here in the old days when Bisbee was a mining camp pure and simple and had not yet dreamed of the sedate city airs of today.
 Well, when Chicken" who, like most Arizonians, was an ardent ad- mirer of the Great Teddy, heard that his hero was coming to dedicate the flooding of the dam, he resolved to be present upon that occasion and to make a gift to the eastern president with the western heart. He had bear cub that was husky in size and strenuous in disposition and as brown as a hazelnut. Just the gift for the great bearhunter! So Chicken" locked up his shack and took his bear and came down to Bisbee to take the train for the north. He had to stay in Bisbee all night, so he persuaded one of his old friends who conducted

ate on fatigue duty is generally fairly cheerful about it-with one exception. He has a rooted objection to anything that takes him into the trenches dur ing his period of rest" not so much because he has any great fear of being killed or wounded. but because he feels that "out of the trenches" ought to mean out altogether until the time comes for his next turn of duty. He feels that he is encroaching on pre- serves that ought to be kept strictly for the use of the men who are up"

 Such is one days work if one is a private on fatigue duty"
 Digging trenches of course is not the only duty of working parties. They are employed in clearing, repair ing or improving front line trenches, carrying materials, laying light rail ways. felling trees, assisting in min ing operations, pumping water, making roads, building dugouts, or a score of other tasks.
 They may be employed for the day

Teddy's bear" was first Chicken Dicks bear. The Chicken is dead and will soon be forgotten except by a few of his old friends here in Cochise coun- ty, but the"bear" he gave to the col onel will never be forgotten.
