Except with a Pharoah to make
them do 1t, the Egyptians Of old would
have paid no attention to Joseph'B
warning of the coming seven years
Of famine. In these days. however.
when people are able TO see the con-
ditions ahead as plainly as they can
see those that have gone before, there
Is no need for Pharoah. Those who
have not already done so should get
down on their knees and thank God
that he has allowed them another
seed time and harvest before the
scarcity is due to reach its worst. and
then all should go to work to prepare
az they have never prepared before.

Moore cattle inspector and Manuel Munguia. of Morenci. were taken into custody with the murder of Lyons and Satur- day morning were taken to Fl Paso by Detective Blume where they will answer to the charge.
 Particulars as to the evidence war ranting the arrest of the men are lacking but 1t is known that the Fl Paso officer has been in close touch with the suspects for the past few days and !n his association with them gleaned enough information to warrant him in placing them under arrest.
 The murder case has created wide spread interest in the southwest. both on account Of the mysterious circumstances surrounding the kill ing and also owing to the fact of the big reward of sl0,50O.0O offered for the arrest and conviction Of the guilty parties.
 It is understood that Bass and Moore were in New Mexico at the time the crime was committed but whether they had any direct connec- ton with 1t remains to be seen.
