HEALTH SEEKERS IN BAD PLIGHT. FOUND

GLOBE.-Two unfortunates from the white plague. exhausted from their long travel from Colorado were found starned near the sawmill on the Fort Apache road by William 2y an. who was returning from a trip 10 his ranch.
 The young men started from Colo :ado several months ago. making the rip to the White mountains with a small burro team. sarrying a few pro visions and camp outfit. When they reached the Black river they be- came exhausted. and unable to travel further they camped along the road way, hoping against hope that some tourist might pick them up.
 Mir Ryan stopped his car when he noticed the young men. and after ascertaining their condition he brought one of the men to town and left the other in care of the camp. Deputy United States Marshal Haynes and Deputy Sheriff Karrick left for the mountains immediately and brought the other sufferer to the county hospital When they reached the hospital the man was hardly able to breathe and his recov- cry is doubtful. He gave his name as H. E. Tieman and his home as Denver. Colorado. The name of the other unfortunate was not learned

game lie asserts that I.vapai county is due for a genuine period of stable mine activity in the imme- diate future and that those who fail 10 recognize their opportunities to make money out of silver mining need not complain in the future that the signs of the coming prosperity did not cast their shadows before them. as it appears to him to be the plainest he ever saw in all his min ing experiences.
 Mir Case was one of the con tractors who built the aerial tram way in Grown King, and watched the recent boom dLys of that camp, and examined many of the properties in that section. He states that the Bradshaw mountain quadrangle con tains many great mines not yet touched beyond grass roots, and that there still must lie in its boundaries many uncovered and undiscovered bononzas The present price of silver gives this veteran miner the itchy foot to get back into the hills at times and he says he can scarcely keep out of the game, even though he has passed his Hour score years.

Senator Lodge in his address. "The
delays have bred restlessness and
confusion everywhere. Germany il
lifting her head again. The whimp-
ering after defeat is changing to
threats. She is seeking to annex
5000, 600 of Germans in German Aus
tria. She is reaching out in Russia
and reviving her financial and COM
mercial penetration everywhere.
Germany is again threatening, and
the only source of a great war is
to be found for the future as for
the past in Germany. She should
be chained and fetterad now and this
menace to world peace removed"
But instead of following such an
obviously practical plan, the peace
conferees have wasted much pre-.
cious time in the discussion of a
league of nations. designed more to
stir up resentments among liberty
loving people who have never had
env thought of warning upon their

to having these alternate constitu-
tisns printed and put in the hands

will be extremely interesting to com
