State Engineer Maddock sent the welcome word to Williams this week, that twenty-five thousand dollars has been ap- propriated from the Federal Aid Road Fund, to aid in the construction of the Williams Clarkdale road. This brings the total thus far. to $5A, ,OO0 for construction work on the road.
 It appears certain that at least fifty thousand. dollars more will soon be secured for this road, and with this sum, it will be possible to open the road and put it in fairly good shape for travel.

P|TMAN VALLEY NEWS

The snow is melting fast, wa ter everywhere. Davenport has more water than ever for this time of the year. Grass is coming up along the rocky mesas and looks well for good year for farming.
 Several autos have passed by but we understand they can get no farther than Brannigan's lane as the snow is very deep between there and Bellemont.
 The snow is melting so fast it causes the water to back on the road. In many places the road has been washed. The road near Platten's ranch has a big hole in it and no doubt would have been seriously damaged had not MT. Platten found it and worked for two days to keep the road from be- ing badly hurt.
 Tony ,McWilliams was look ing over the road Monday and, reports several cars stranded near Maine, waiting for the snow to melt.
 We are glad to hear the good News that Williams will have good road from there to Clarkdale altho the legislature was very stingy in the amount they allowed, as it will need 3, lot of money if the road is to be built in the place I have had ex- plained to me, but 1 guess the state will take a tumble and do everything to build good roads. The present state high way has had 9 lot of money wasted on it and we hope they will get busy and make good use of the money.
 Surprised me when Tread in the News that Supervisor Wool folk opposed the road to Clark dale from Williams, saying he wanted to use the money on the road between Flagstaff and Williams, when he said we had all we were going to get on this road two years ago, and what has he done to improve any road?

SUCCESSFUL METHOD OF PREVENTING MOUNTAIN LION ATTACKS UPON
 YOUNG COLTS

Following a notice in the Weekly Press Letter of the Extension Service of the uni versity to the effect that Gila County farmers were losing a large number of colts from attacks by lions, the informa- tion given below was received by letter from MT. Albert A. Woods, Springerville Arizona who gives his experience of three or, four years successfully controlling this loss.
 '1 have had experience with these pests for three or four years in Southeastern Nevada I never could raise a colt until I put bells on them and it pro- we'd such a success that I have continued to bell each one. I have never lost a colt that was belled. 1 would almost be will ing to insure every colt in Gila county against lion attacks that has bell upon it.

4 BOYS TURN BURGLAR

W1tIl-1IO1d 1O1Il puO11CdlIOAi were rounded up Monday bJ county and city officers, after series of petty thievery that has extended over several weeks and the diversity of which dis plays considerable adeptness on the part of t he youngsters
 All are boys ranging in age about 15 years. Among the places robbed, so far as report ed to the officers were: Santa Fe Hospital. Red Cross work rooms, Duffy Brothers ware house, Grand Canyon hotel, Cottage Hotel, Boyce's, w. H. Steffins. Howes, Kirwans, Udin- es. a Chinese restaurant, the old brewery, the Red Cross Canteen. and several other places. From the canteen they took cigarettes upon two .occas- ions. Many hen roosts were robbed, and the fowl taken to a cache in the woods, in the can- yon south of town. Here the young thieves were wont to re- sort and hold high carnival eat ing and smoking. One of tharn narrowly escaped being killed by Dr. Melick, the night the hospital was entered. One of them was already under pro- batien from the Arizona Juve- nile Courts, and one of them under probation from the Cali fornia courts, from which state he was ordered to leave, and not return for a year. One of them is a stranger from Michi- gan and the fourth has not heretofore been implicated in any serious offense.
 Judge J. E. Jones, of Flag staff, accompanied by County Attorney Gold came to Will Hams Tuesday and held Iuve- nile court and placed all four on probation. with such restric- tlon that it is hopel this may serve as better punishment than = term in the eeform school at Fort Grant.
 One boy goes with his par ents to their ranch; one goes with H. F. Cushman to the Perkins ranch: one is to return to Michigan and another is placed in charge of his mother. All are forbidden to attend the movies, or to be. upon the streets after dark, and those ir whose care they are placed must report every so often, for six months, to the court. Should a violation of the probation oc- cur. they will forthwith be sent to the reform school.
 Orchestral music, vocal so- los, minstrel clog dances. tab leaus and solo dancing, will be features of the programme. at Rabbits fashion show next Saturday evening. at eight o. clock. During the afternoon the latest models in costumes hats and all new styles of cloth Ing will be on display.
