H. H. CLOUD SHADOWS
 WILLIAMS SUN AGAIN

H. H. Cloud who two years ago, passed thru Williams with a burro outfit, on his way from the Grand Canyon to the Yo- semitic and Lake Tahoe in Cal ifornia, on a tramp that cover ed13 months in time and 4600 l miles in distance, again struck Williams Monday, on his way around the world. This time he is on an ordinary bicycle, carrying his blankets grub and camera with him and camping under the pines and stars, studying nature in all of it's beauty and intelligence, and learning the great secrets of the Universe.
 MT. Cloud pays his way as he travels, by working at anything that he can find to do. Thru the kindness of our fellow townsman, MT. Hank" Ritter, MT. Cloud put in a few days on the road and thus secured a "grub stake" to carry him thru the Painted Desert. The kind ness of Hank and the glorious climate of Arizona, will never be forgotten by the 62 year old globe trotter, H. H. Cloud.
 I camp when the night OCT
 takes me,
 Pm off with the rising sun I tramp all day OCT the
 Kings Highway,
 And I tell you it's lots of
 fun.
 I gaze on the stars at mid
 night,
 And I read their secrets
 rare
 I view the plains of the set
 ting sun,
 And I know God paints
 them there.
 MT. Cloud writes much more verse like this. He certainly delights in the great outdoors and is himself as interesting a phenomenon as the wild life he studies.

GET HORSE THIEVES
 AFTER LONG CHASE
Sheriff Dickinson and Deputies Follow Two Men Accused of Stealing Horses for 2 Months Finally Catching Them-Ar- rested in Deming, N. M. and Brought to Flagstaff.

Last Saturday morning Sher- if Dickinson went to Deming N. M. to bring back two men accused of stealing horses. The men were Jack Davis and Bob Gould, who had been taken into custody there by local au- thorities upon the request of the sheriff. This ended.a pur- suit that had lasted six months and that led over a number of states.
 The theft was committed last November, altho notice of the theft did not reach the Sheriff's S office until a month later. Sev- en horses were taken from Bab- bitt's and taken to Caliente, Nevada and sold. Davis and Gould were seen at Seligman and other points, with the hors- eS.
 Upon getting word of the theft and sale, Sheriff Dickin- son took up the trail altho al- ready month old, and follow ed it turnout the winter. He traced the men from Nevada back south and over several states, always on the scent but never getting really close until about the middle of May. On the 18th of May he left for New Mexico and followed the men from Las Vegas to the border, then back to Calexico and Mex icalo. From this point he was called back to Flagstaff to arrange for the selective draft enrolment, and while in Flag staff received word that the men had been taken by the au. thorities at Deming. Extradi- ton papers were waived and the men were brought to Flag staff and placed in jail to await trial.
 Both of the men were form. erly in the employ of Frank and Gus Poison and are known by many people about Williams The evidence against them is strong and a conviction seems 5 probable.

S70CKMEN WHO GO ID WAR
 MAY RETAIN GRAZING RIGHTS

Albuquerque, May 28th- Stockmen holding grazing priv ileges on the National Forests who enter the army or navy may have their range rights reserved during their absence, according to announcement made here today by District Forester Paul G. Redington. The plan is authorized in a telegram received from the Forester at Washington. Stock owners who desire to take ad- vantage of this privilege are | asked to file a statement with the local Forest Supervisor so that provisions can be made for the temporary use of the vacated ranges by others in the interim.
 Under the Forest regulations range privileges may be held only through use. The new ruling protects those who will be forced to discontinue use of the range through entering the national service, and at the same time guards against the vacated ranges lying idle.

--Sault Ste. Marie, Mich.,- George Hollis, five years old, living in the Canadian Soo, boarded an international train recently at his home town to come into the United States. The conductor and immigration oficials-who are very alert nowadays noticed George and asked him to sit with his father.
 George looked from one man to another until he reached a man in the last seat.
 "I never saw the boy before" said the man.
 The boy insisted until he was threatened with a spanking. Then he sobbed and said:
 "I wanted to come to the United States and buy a flag. My daddy said the United Stat es was run by God and I want ed to show God that I love him.

DOES NUT WORRY
 OVER WAR

WASHINGTON. Aug. 27, - If you have pictured President Wilson care, worn, haggard and breaking under the strain of his tremendous war problems change the portrait. It Is way wrong.
 On one of his unannOunced strolls from the White House to Secretary Bakers office in the state, war and navy building. he gave press men an opportunity for a good closeup Of Woodrow Wilson in war mood.
 Swinging out from Bakers room and down the tiled corridor, the pre- sident mad more the manner of a man who had just concluded a pleasant chat with an old crony about nothing in particular, than of a nations leader who had just discussed vital world problem whose solution he must find
 Clad in snowy linen coat and trous CTS, flat.topped. broad brimmed straw hat set squarely on his head, the president moved at brisk pace toward the stairway. There was spring in his step. His smile was gen ial, his cheeks ruddy with the glow of health.
 Realizing the vital importance of keeping himself fit, the president is exceedingly careful to play with his work Early every morning. long be- fore most Washingtonians are so much as turning over for their pre- getting up nap, the president is out in his knuickerbockers and off around the golf course. Mrs. Wilson usually accompanies him. A couple of hours later they may be seen rolling into the big cars with the gold spread eagles in circle on the door panels. Golf, walking and other mild forms of exercise take care of the presidents s physical health. For mental diversion and rest he turns from the problems of war to intricate, complex and quite thrilling detective stories. Nose of his newspaper reading is done for him by Secretary Tumulty. Thousands of pa pers from all over the country are

PARIS AS 0NE OF WORLD 5 GREAT
 SEAPO PORTS
fBy United Press)


 PARIS, Aug. 2S. - Paris as one of the worlds great seaports of the fu- ture is today more than an idle dream Ever since the seventeenth century the idea of a seaport Paris has been occasionally discussed by learned Frenchmen and approved as highly ad- visable. But it has taken the big war to develop the plan so that today it is a potent possibility. The war has de- manded the absolute necessity of pro viding Paris with a nayigable water way direct to the sea, so that ocean going ships might bring their cargoes into dock at the French metropolis.
 The Paris seaport scheme has been handed down from generation to generation, with additions and modi- ficatiOns on paper. Then came the great floods of 1910, when whole quar- ters of paris were inundated and traf- fife was suspended for days. It was then definitely decided that a canal system must be built to relieve the main stream in case of new floods and the idea of widening and deepening the Seine was also considered.
 Today the prefect of the Seine has issued circulars to the municipal au- thorities, outlining a definite and new scheme for rendering the Seine navi- gable for big shipping from Paris to Rouen and proposing that port he built at Gennevilliers, outside of Paris, with easy access to the capital.

LONDON, Aug. 2s. - They used to say that the fastest thing on the B. X o. was the Royal Blue Limited. They were wrong. The fastest thing on the B. X o. was young hired hand named Eric Geddes. Naturally it wasn't known then. but the appoint ment of Vice-Admiral Sir Erie Geddes the same young hired hand and not a whole lot older - to be ruler of the navy that rules the wave ought to prove it.
 If the new first lord of the British admiralty had middle name it would be speed. If he accomplishes the same results in the admiralty that he has accomplished in other branches of the government. this much is certain: British naval officers will cease to marvel at the hustle of the American navy; they will be too busy speeding up their own.

LITTLE I ROOFS IN THICK OF
 FIGHTING
(By United Press)

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES, Aug. 2s.-z-Annamite troops. The little brown men, of Frances colonies in Indo-China, have just had their bap- tism of fire on the western front.
 The Annamites are the smallest men participating in the European conflict. yet they have acquitted them selves in the fighting manner that gives them rank alongside with the troops of greater physical endowment. The Annamite battaliOns are com posed entirely of volunteers. Their first public appearance was on July II, 1916. the French national holiday. when along with the Russians, Cana dians. English Belgian and Australian troops, they participated in the mili- tary parade at Paris.
 Almost without exception they are students from the French schools, col lleges and universities in Indo-China. The announcement there early in 1916 that volunteer battalions would be formed for service in France, result ed almost in the depletion of the French educational institutions. The students enlisted almost to a man.
 In the battalion now serving in France are Annamites with the rank of count, with the rank of mandarin of the first, second and third classes, and with various other distinctions of cast and nobility, Amongst them selves all the courtesies to which these ranks give title are scrupulously observed But when the battaliOns are formed for fighting or other ser vice on the French front, the counts and mandarins become merely the private soldiers that they temporarily are, and the brothers of all the rest.
 When the Annamites were first brought to France there was no idea of using them as fighting troops Their small stature seemed to preclude that. They were drilled and employed in all of the various services of the rear, such as convoy chauffeurs, road build CTS, forestation work and similar oe- equations. Their constant proximity to the front. however, soon aroused in them an ardent desire to participate 1 in the fighting. and now after a little more than a year of faithful service in the auxiliary service of the French army they have been given their chance to establish their right to be in the fighting ranks, Their place there, too. seems to have been perma- nently won.
