The worlds record for the motor cycle run from the Canadian line to the Mexican border has again been shattered, this time by F. G. Baker, equally well known as "Cannonball," famous transcontinental and endur- anee motorcycle racer Baker fin ished his run July II, after making the run on an Indian motorcycle in 59 hours and AZ minutes. The last previ- ous record for the run was made by H. c. Scherer a month ago, June 21, with a time of GA hours and 58 minutes.
 The famous run across the entire United States is made from the Ca nadian boundary down the Pacific coast to the Mexican line, a route that takes in every variety of road, and at times. no road at all It also includes on the route a number of large cities famed for their congested traffic.
 Baker, the latest breaxer of the rec ord, was the first man to hang up a record for the run. In August, 1915, he made the distance in S1 hours and 15 minutes. Two years ago Roy Art ley dropped the time a notch by mak- ing the run in 72 hours and 25 min utes, and not quite year ago Wells Bennett set up a new mark of 70 hours flat
 Scherer's dash of a month ago and Bakers new exploit have now got the running time from one boundary line to the other down to thirteen minutes below sixty hours flat.

GET MORE EVIDENCE
 ON RECENT MURDER

Important evidence was discovered yesterday in the Glendale murder case. in the opinion of county officers, when Ranger A C. Dewitt discovered the gun the alleged murderer threw away in the Buckeye canal just before his capture.
 Felipe Soils, known as Chomacho who is in jail charged with the murder and robbery of Margarito Aviles near Glendale, was captured near the Buck eye canal by Dewitt and Smith, from the sheriff's office after he had aban doned his horse, which had been wind ed by a chase with the official flivver, and attempted to hide out on foot. As he crossed the canal Dewitt saw him loosen his belt and throw the whole thing into the water. The canal was full from the high water since until yesterday when Dewitt went back to the scene of the capture and raked for the gun and belt and found them.
 The gun is 32-40 Colts, said to be of the same type as the one with which Avila was shot. Avila accused Soils of the shooting before he died.

 Kampmann said there are some bad places on the Ehrenberg Blythe road, some sand and some sections beyond Mecca where the road is dangerous if one does not drive very carefully but it is much preferable to the Parker road as the average is in fully as good condition and is 125 miles shorter.
