HAYDEN, AfiZ., March 3O.-War
! has its perils and hardships, but these
! are as nothing compared with the
wild life led by the Hayden Mounted
Police If we had the writing of a
8 book entitled Diamond Dick" or "The
Bootleggers Revenge" we would start
itfoff with the story of the. bootleggers
) captured last Saturday morning, which
! reads thusly:
1t was Midnight In the black sha-
! dow of the Winkelman bridge crouch
) ed several figures, silent and alert,
waiting. Time passed. Suddenly on
8 the still night air sounded the distant
throb of motor, and presently auto
r rapidly nearer, and a big machine
: forward onto the bridge The wait
. ing figures. sprang in front of it and
1.-The light shone on their levelled wea-
pons.
"Halt!" cried their leader, Throw
up your hands! We are officers of
the law!"
The speaker was Deputy Hamilton,
j. who, having received word that this
carload Of booze was due to arrive
that night, had waited some hours
by the bridge to intercept it.
But the bootleggers did not stop. On
izsthes contrary. They threw her wide
open and sped past, needless of the
fusillade that made the rear of the
machine resemble a pepper-box lid. In
a moment they were out of sight, and
the discomfitted officers turned to try
other means.
ALI would have gone well with the
fugitives had not criminal cunning
overreached itself Having gone about
eight miles past Hayden on the road
toward Kelvin, it occurred to the booze
runners that they were probably rum
ming into a trap. They figured that
Hamilton would phone to Scott White
at Ray, who would meet and hold
them up at Kelvin.
To avoid this they doubled on their
tracks and come back toward Hayden.
Pleased with their super cunning they
bowled merrily along and ran slap
bang into Hamilton's party, who were
pursuing in another machine. The
bootleggers gave one look, and took
to the woods, leaving their car as a
mute but effective witness against
them. Hamilton gathered in the booze
car and brought it back to Hayden,
figuring on picking up the bootleggers
later on.
The hunt for them. began At day.

VERDE COMBINATION
MAKES CONNECTION

g3 JEROME, Ariz, March 30.-Connec-
tion has been made between the raise
from the level of the Mescal tunnel
and the shaft at the Verde Combina-
ton property. This gives the shaft
depth Of 225 feet not counting the
winze which is now 100 feet below the
tunnel level. The shaft passed through
mineralized porphyry formation in go
ing down to meet the raise, which was
in soft contract material. Work is now
to be commenced cutting the main
crosscut through to the Conners group
which will mean a gain in depth of
from 1000 to HOO feet at the lowest
estimate. Work on the shaft and the
raise began Feb. 1S and the compile
tion of the work within this time is
considered a record for the Verde
district, considering that the work was
done by two shifts working by hand.

Auto Killed Cow

Wednesday afternoon about
milking time Burge Finue)l turn
ed his cow out of the pasture
south of town to take her home
a few blocks north of the pas
ture. Just as the COW was out
on the road a Maxwell car driv-
en- by Mr.. Barker of Oklahoma
who is visiting relatives at the
home of John Coy in the Hills
came along at pretty fair clip
enroute to Coys. The COW must
have been confused for as the
machine passed her she made a
quick turn and butted squarely
into the car. The front of the
car was badly wrecked and the
cow was killed, likely instantly
as her neck was broken as we'll
as her legs. The car was run to
the Dameron garage for repairs
badly needed.

tlefnan who will be Cne of the

and better for him on account of
the guidance of the good chris

CONGRESS N SESSION
War On Austria Hungary Sure
A Big War Expense Bill
Peace Pooh -POohed

The new Congress has met
and heard the Presidents mes
sage and reports to the effect
that the message was well re-
ceived by the representatives of
the people are general. The
president advocates a declara-
tion of war on Austria-H Hungary
and stops at that while many in
congress wish to include Turkey,
Bulgaria and any others who
have been friendly to the Cen
trail Powers.
The estimated budget for the
second year of the war is nearly
fourteen billions dollars but this
amount is expected to also cover
the eytra cost of the postal SER
vice and. sinking fund require
ments.
President Wilson SCOTS at any
offer of peace by ignoring Lord
Lansdownes letter and declar-
ing that so long as autocracy
has any say in the matter, this
country will not consider peace.
Latin countries which have
been more or less friendly to the
Central Powers are to be dealt
with summarily so far as trade
relations are concerned.

Found Dead

A man was found dead in
Kansas City Sunday and for a
time it was supposed that it was
Hubbard Hamilton of this neigh
borhood by some who read the
account in the Kansas City pa
pers. The man had an envelope
in his pocket with Hamiltons
name on it and that is where the
impression got abroad that the
victim was our hustling farmer
and dyke builder.
There was such a man here it
appears, some days ago, talk
ing of buying mules or cattle
or something and wanted corn
or said he did, and he approach
ed Hamilton with a proposition
to buy his soft corn and bring
stock to feed it to, but whether
this is the same person or not
has not been established. The
deceased who, it was ascertain
ed by inquest died from natural
was a sandy haired.

THE EUROPEAN " AR
Truce - Russia and Germany
Italy Suffering Defeat
U Boats Active

Rome admits abandonment of
positions occupied by Italian
armies this week because of the
rushing in of two hundred thous-
ands fresh Austrian soldiers.
The situation in italy is more
critical than at any other period
of the war. Russian powers in
control have formed truce with
Germany and hostilities are sus-
pended for a day or more, but
disagreement has arisen over
question of Germany using troops
in Russia to reinforce her armies
in France. This disagreement
may change situation, in Rus
sia. Success alternately for
Allies and Germans in Northern
France. American soldiers are
getting in action rapidly at diff
ferent points.
U boats have destroyed consid-
cradle commerce during the
past two weeks.

lures for logarythms, he was
limbering up his arms and hard
ening his fists against the day
when he would accidentally
stumble onto Reed. Quiet as
Doc was about it. Moore heard
almost on his arrival the inaus-
picious story and he put out
post haste for K. City. Find
ing that he couldn't find Reed
he took his trouble t. Burns de-
tective agency and by the mana
ger was directed to interview
the head man at the Star office.
He had as much trouble getting
to this individual as he would
in getting to the mixing box in
a powder factory. but after be-
ing searched, escorted by two
huskies and meandering thru
halls, rooms and alleys in the
building, he was before his nibs
who went into conniptions spon-
taneously upon hearing the
story. The Star permits of no
fake ads if it can prevent it,
and to make no slips in this re-
gard, it gets its information
from an agency which is sup
posed to be infallible on the
question of fakes. Moore was
sent to manager Craig of this
concern and that gentleman
readily admitted that he had let
one get by, a fact possessed by
Moore in advance. However,
Moore was assured that he
would get his money back from
some one and he laughs over
the experience and the joke
which is on some one else.
