 Dear friend MT. Kelly:
 Due to the fact that I have been decidedly busy on my new job as Quartermaster with this detachment I have neglected to reply to your favor received before leaving Camp John ston, Fla.
 have been here almost. month and believe me I have been in the front line trenches about 12 hours Ter day getting even with the work that had accumulated prior to my .ooming, such as semi-annual proper ty returns, fiscal year reports, tran sfers, etc, also shipping and receiv- ing men. The hours reminds me very much of a prosperous Xmas tide in the post office--zv--I am also; handicapped i'll that we haven't enough clerks, and what we have are new on the iot, especially in e. M work.
 We have very pretty little camp here, the men are all new drafted re- cruits, but d husky bunch and snap into the work very well. The pur- pose of the camp is to train men in vocational work, auto mechanics, car pentry, blacksmiths, etc as we'll as military drill and discipline New barracks are being constructed for ad- ditional men also officers quarters, so we will soon have an ideal camp
 l note from your letter that busi- ness is still very good in the post office especially the sale Of W. S. s. That is good news as they help to put black eye on kaiser bill"
 Let me hear from you and extend my regards to MT. Riley and MT. Pringle.
 Yours very truly, H. M. TYNER End It. O. M. C., U. s. A.

CAR TURNS TURTLE
 SEVERAL INJURED
FORD CAPSIZES AS IT STRIKES SAND BED WHILE 2. N. ADAMS
 AND FAMILY ARE GOING TO PIG
 MIG

Last Sunday morning Mr. and Mrs 2. N. Adams, their three children. and the sister of Mrs. Adams, a young -lady about grown, were the victims of quite serious accident, which occurred just this side of York. The party were en route to picnic at Ash Springs, and when near the Day place, a short distance this side of York, they ran into sand bed, and the Ford did what it usually does when suddenly striking a sand bed while going at lively clip, simply turned turtle MT. Adams and all of the others were thrown clear of the car, except the young lady, who was caught under the machine as it turned over. All of the occupants were pretty badly bruised, and other wise more or less injured. At the time it was thought the injuries were of more serious nature than they proved to be later.
 Sheriff Slaughter, who was going out that road, came upon the over turned car soon after the accident happened, but some others had reach ed the scene just previous to his ar rival, and as soon as he got there, he and the others lifted the machine off the young lady, releasing her from her perilous position.
 The car was soon righted, and be- yond some minor damage was little the worse for the accident.
 MT. Slaughter put the injured ladies and children into his car and return ed to Clifton with them, and after securing scme minor restora tives, he proceeded to Morenci where they were taken in his car to the Phelps Dodge hospital and given medical and sur gical attention.
 MT Slaughter stated that the in fant of MT. and Mrs Adams seemed to be seriously injured. and from the symptoms shown while coming to Clifton he was very uneasy about the chi'd- It vcmited nearly all the way end between spells of vomiting would only to become aroused at the ap- nroach of another spell of vomiting
 Beyond few scratches there were no visible iniIries cn the body of the young laov, but as she was pen ned underneath the car, it was fear cd she was injured internally. The children were bruised and scratched, as was MT, Adams. Mrs. Adams was injured on her knee, from which she .bled rather profusely.
 After rieiltine the Ford Mr Adams drove it into Clifton for repairs, con- tinuing the journey to Morenci with his family in MT. Slaughter's car
 That one or more of the party was not fatally injured is almost miracul- ous, as the accident was complete overturn of the car, and but for the fact that the top was down it would doubtless have been tragedy
 MT. Adams was in the city Tuesday and stated ali were in very good con- Gition, as none of the injuries were of much consequence eyce"t the bahv The infant seemed to be still suffering considerable pain

MEXICAN CARVING
 FIVE ARE WOUNDED
SIX SERIOUSLY STABBED AT MO- RENcI SATURDAY NiGHT-MAN ARRESTED SAID TO CUT FIVE

At a Mexican entertainment at Mo- renci last Saturday night several of the guests were seriously injured, when the festivities were terminated in a general row. Some trivial mat ter is said to have precipitated the difficulty, but the ever ready knife was present, and soon it began to do its deadly work. Deputy w. V. Mo Carty was soon on the scene, and placed under arrest a Mexican whose name is said to be Juan Talamantes, and brought him to Clifton and lodg- ed him in the county jail.
 It is alleged by eye witnesses that Juan is very proficient wielder of the knife, when he is whittling on the anatomy of his. fellow man. During the fracas those who were present said he lost no time, but used his knife on everything in human form that confronted him. It is alleged that he was seen to cut the five men who were more or less seriously stab bed while the melee was under way
 Juan is said by the officers to be the leader of the trouble, and will have to face trial on several counts for assault with deadly weapon. He is nov meditating on the folly of such serious sport while he languish- es in the county jail, awaiting the results of the injuries of the men whom he is alleged to have murder ously assaulted.
 The injured Mexicans were taken to the D. C. and A. C. hospitals in Morenci, where their injuries were given surgical attention. At last ac- counts all were doing as we'll as could be expected, and it is thought all will recover.
 Another is implicated in the disturb ance, but before the arrival of the officers, succeeded in making his get away. He is said to have precipita- ted the row by assaulting another

SEARCH NEW YORK
 FOR MAN WANTED IN LOCAL MURDER

Collogero Piazzo, wanted for the murder of George Scragnani, still re. mains at large. Diligent search by thet police, which led them to prac- tically every Italian settlement in Bridgeport, Stratford and Milford, failed to throw any light on his dis appearance.
 While Detective Captain E. o. Cro- nan is loathe to believe Piazzo made good his escape from this city, this apparently seems to be the case, in spite of the fact that railroad and trolley cars and all roads leading from this city have been watched closely since shortly after the mur- der in Scrafnani's Lexington avenue grocery store, Monday night.
 Several Italian residents of the neighborhood in which the murder was committed have been closely questioned, with the hope that one of them might know of the haunts frequented by Piazzo.
 The accused is known to have had a business in New York, and for that reason the police have been in communication with theauthorities of that city, who have offered their ( operation in bringing the murderer to justice.

CROWN PRINCESS ABDICATES; GOLD
 RESERVE GONE
valido, King of the Gypsies Asks Police to Find $2,
 300 Sadly Needed.
CROWNPRINCEBURIED HIS SPOUSE GOES TO
Funeral Cost $7OO, Making Other Drains on Tribal
 Treasury Hard to Bear.

Rebellion is threatened in the ranks of the gypsies now in this city, and George Valido, king of the tribe in America and father of the late crown prince, John Valido, whose funeral was held yesterday Is the object Of dissension. And all because he ap- peared at police headquarters this morning and reported to Detective Captain B. O. Cronan, that his daugh- ter-in-law, Nina Valido, widow of the cro VII prince, had fled with a trunk containing $2,S00 and clothes which belonged to him.
 The elder Valido told Captain Cro- nan that he believed that his throne would be in peril as the result of his charge against the crown princess, but said that he could not afford to lose the $2,300 as he had just spent S700 for his sons funeral. The king and queen of the gypsies told the detective of many ungrateful acts committed by the crown princess, and begged Cap tain Cronan to do all in his power to recover the money.
 According to the story told the po- lice, the trunk was taken and shipped from the quarters at 963 East Main street where the gypsy royal family had been stopping, directly after the funeral services held yesterday for the crown prince. The elder Valido said that his Gaughter-in-laW had shipped the trunk to New York and had fled to that city with her young child.
