Haunts Scene of Crimes.

In the olden days Devon and Corn
wall were notorious for their wreck
ers, who tricked many a gallant yes
sci ashore on the rock-encircled coast
by false lights. In many places the
spectres Of ships wrecked in this man
ner are said to reappear. At Priest
cove in Cornwall, the ghost of noto-
rious wrecker who was wont to lure
ships ashore by moving lights in Ian
terms, which he hung round the neck
of a lame horse, is said to appear on
stormy nights clinging to the fragment
of wreck, which is dashed violently
on the rocks, eventually disappearing
with the wrecker in a cloud of foam.

Greatest Auto Drivers Ill the World Will
 Be In Phoenix For State Fair Races,
 Entries Received Making Great Card

yesterday by Mir. Bullard. Omar Taft, noted in coast and Indianapolis race circles as one of the most daring speed demons of the racing saucer, is shipping his Taft Special to be entered in the big free-for all. A Barney Old field Special has been shipped by Waldo Stein.
 Added to the above brilliant array is the little Overland Flight Spot which has been entered by the Overland Ari- zona company.
 Superintendent Bullard is elated at the large number of entries from racing stars of the first magnitude We are gratified beyond measure in having re- ceived such a formidable array of racing talent" he said. Tt means that we are going to be able to stage race here in Phoenix which will be on a par with the Indianapolis races or the famous Vanderbilt cup races. have every reason to believe that other noted drivers will be heard from before the opening of the fair, and in order to secure as many as possible we are ex- tending the time limit on entries to the night of November S.
 Superintendent Bullard is now cen tering his attention in arousing inter- est in the novelty race, which was especially arranged for the owners of smaller cars. This race will be for 10 miles only and for cars costing less than s1,200. The first prize is $250, the second $50, and the third S100. Here is an opportunity for owners of Chevrolets, Maxwels, Fords, Dodges and Dorts and other small cars, to make some easy money, he says. and

WONDERFUL PHOTO SHOWS CARS RUN
 IN APACHE TRAIL

The Rabbit Bros. Cadillac sales room at 13 N Central is displaying a wonderful example of the art of en- larging photographs in the picture or the Cadillacs used by the Union Auto Stage Co. The picture was taken with an ordinary sized camera at the cap- itol grounds and is now brought up to the sibe of four feet by six, while every detail stands out perfectly clear.
 There are ten Cadillacs in the line> up, all veterans of the Apache Trail and each power unto it's seif-a coz in the wheel of time as they are run exactly like trains, each on it's own individual schedule
 People who use this line say that they are as prompt as trains and just as sure in delivery, if not more so. The words Cadillac" and Apache Trail" are becoming synonomous as the tourist invariably says, T went over the Apache Trail in a Cadillac Eight" The reason for that is the Cadillac happens to be the car that has stood the test of the grades anc rocky road-bed of the trail to Globe.
 Babbitt Bros. will have on display soon, a Cadillac chassis in the Cadillac show room and it will be worth one's while to make an examination of this piece of construction and the critic will see the reason at once, as to why it is possible for the Cadillacs to stand up on this run. There is no truck, no piece of rolling mechanism of any de- scription that shows a more careful and a more rigid construction than does this type 57 Cadillac chassis.

urges that entries be filed with him as soon as possible.
 The special conditions surrounding this race insures plenty of amusement for the spectators. At the end of the second mile, according to the rules, each car must stop at the starting tape. the driver must dismount and standing beside his car must eat an apple, consuming all of the same ex- cept the core. He is then allowed to remount and proceed.
 Rule says that at the end of the fourth mile each car must stop at the starting tape, the driver must dismount and run to a point 50 feet to the rear of the tape, turn around and run to the car, remount and proceed.
 Rule says that at the end of the sixth mile each car must stop at the starting tape, the driver must dis mount, pnlace and take off his shoes, replace them without lacing, remount and proceed.
 At the end of the eighth mile the driver is required to skip the rope for a space of 20 feet to the rear of the tape and continuing to skip the rope return to his car. Lest the driver skip some of the skipping the rule especially provides that he shall skip at least ten times in one direction, and ten times on the return.
 At all stops at the starting tape engines will be allowed to run; in case any cars stopping at the starting tape under these conditions over-runs the tape, the driver must back up so that his front wheels are on the tape before dismounting.
 In addition to the races outlined above there will be another race of 25 miles, open to drivers and cars from Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. It is expected that many of those par ticipating in the Fl Paso to Phoenix race will enter their cars for this event. The first prize is $500, the second $500, and the third $2G0.
 Officials of the State Fair Track races are announced as follows: Referee, c. P. Bullard; assistant su- perintendent Billy Ferguson; judges, Charles McArthur. Billy Ferguson. Cal Messner; starter, Leon s. Jacobs; first assistant starter, Bert H. Clingan; second assistant starter. Tom K. Dun bar: chief timer. R. D.

wild steeds are getting to be very troublesome, leading away domesti- cated stock, demolishing corrals, break ing down fences and damaging prop erty in general Before adopting the plan of shooting the horses, the ranchers tried corraling and shipping them to eastern markets, but the ex- pense of capturing the animals was far in excess of possible profit and the danger connected with the at tempts at capture were disproportion- ate.
 The horses are decidedly vicious and several cases are cited where they literally dashed their brains out against trees, posts and rocks rather than sub init to capture.
