LOADS COAL
 AT ANCHORAGE HARBOR

1 The gunboat Vicksburg on her recent cruise to the Westward stop- ped at Anchorage and loaded 11O tons of coal from the Governmen, coal mine at Chickaloon. The load ing was accomplished in less than three hours. This feat places An ichorage on the list of coaling sta ,tions for the United States navy.
 From Anchorage the Vicksburg left for further west, where she went to the relief of influenza sui ferers in the Nushagak and Bristol Bay regions. Fifteen of the boats crew were being trained as nurses and a big load of medical supplies was taken to the afflicted region, where good work was done.
 Captain Reardon, while on the cruise, was to keep a close record of the steaming qualities of the coal loaded at Anchorage and to submit reports to the chief engineer of the Alaskan railroad, Governor Riggs, and the navy officials at Washing ton.

 ] Then the third desperado made his appearance, running around the corner of the house with his revolver raised to fire, but before he could pull the trigger, Owens shot and the last of the gang died in his tracks.
 i As the officer retreated a few steps he saw a man through the window, maneuvering for a shot, and again the sheriff's rife spoke The outlaw inside fell to the floor and died within a few minutes. It was Cooper, who had been shot when he opened the door.
 Owens served but one term as sheriff of Apache county, but it was said that at the end of his tenure of office every outlaw in the county had been driven out. killed or arrested
 For a short while the ex-sheriIF acted as an express messenger, but later he entered business on his own account, and died peacefully in commercial harness.

FAMOUS ARIZONA
 INDIAN FIGHTER
 HAS PASSED ON

SELIGMAN, Ariz - A romantic
 figure of Arizona's pioneer days has just passed in the person of Com modore Perry Owens, cattleman, sure shot, dashing Indian fighter and fearless sheriff, who died here. ! With his long, waving hair fall ing over his shoulders, his pleasing personality and dignifed carriage, Commodore Owens carved a spec tacular career on Arizona's tablets of history between his arrival in the state in 1882 and his death. Owens was born in Indiana 65 years ago and came to Arizona via Texas and New Mexico in 1882, to become range foreman of a cat tie company at Navajo Springs
 In a single-handed battle with three Navajo Indians who were stealing the company's cattle, Ow- ems killed the trio. Then followed numerous clashes with the red raid CTS, many of whom fell before his deadly rife. In time the Indians came to believe he bore a charmed life and gave him wide berth, since, despite his frequent battles with them, he did not receive a sin gle wound.
 In 1885, when outlaws throughout Apache county were defying the law, Owens was elected sheriff, and. backed by Judge Robert E. Nor rison, now of Prescott, he obtained indictments against 16 of the most notorious thieves and murderers.
 While the grand jury was report ing the true bills, a dozen of the outlaws fled the county rather than face the new sheriff. The latter tracked three of the remainder to the Blue river and there, when they were resisting arrest, they fell be- fore the guns of Sheriff Owens and his posse. A fourth member of the gang, Finn Clanton. was trapped, captured, and sentenced to serve 10 years in prison.
 Perhaps Owens most spectacular battle was one fought at Holbrook, where the sheriff killed Andy Coop CT, a notorious bad man, and two companions. Owens had been told that the trio had taken refuge in a house near the railroad tracks. He rode down the street to the building. walked up to the door and rapped for admission, with his rife held in his right hand at his hip. Cooper opened the door and at tempted to draw his revolver, but the sheriff fired from the hip, and Cooper fell badly wounded At the same moment another shot rang out from behind, from the gun of one of Cooper's companions, the bullet barely missed the sheriff's head.

Cotton Conditions

Washington D. C., October f5, 1919. - Temperatures were high in the eastern portion of the cot ton belt, but low in the north. western, with heavy to excessive rainfall from the Mississippi Valley westward, mostly light rains in the eastern portion. The excessive rains and made quate sunshine caused cotton to make poor to only fair progress, and caused considerable damage in Arkansas, Mississippi, Okla homa and Texas, where picking is mostly at a standstill, or made slow progress during the week. The weather was favorable for picking in the eastern half of the belt, and the harvest is we'll along in most sections, nearly completed in Georgia, Florida and southern Louisiana. Condi tions are poor to satisfactory in the Carolinas. and the prospect ofa top crop in South Carolina is very poor. It was too wet for truck in Texas, too dry in the South Atlantic States.

RED CROSS ARMY
 NOW MODELLING
STATE CONFERENCES RECENTLY HELD iN SIX CITIES TO
 DISCUSS PLANS.
FIGHTING MEN VOLUNTEER
Responses by the Hundreds Pouring In to Appeal For 1000 900
 Workers.

Mobilization of the vase army of Red Cross workers has begun. Re ports reaching Red Cross division headquarters in St. Louis indicate that plans for the Third Roll Call, Novem- Der to II, are we'll under way in almost every one of the 655 Red Cross Chapters in the five states-Missouri Kansas. Texas, Oklahoma and Arkan- sas comprising the Southwestern Division.
 Chapter Roll Call Directors have been appointed in virtually every city town and county and with but few exceptions working organizations are in process of formation at each place State Directors have been appointed to take charge of the ~apidly forming machine. Added impetus has been given to the preliminary campaign by the holding of Statewide Roll Call conferences recently at St. Louis, Topeka, Dallas, Houston, Oklahoma City and Little Rock, at which definite campaign plans affecting every section of each State in the division were decided upon.
 Meanwhile, responses to the call for 100000 volunteer workers to serve during the coming drive are pouring in by the hundreds to Red Cross headquarters. Once Red Cross worker, always a Red Cross worker" is the slogan adopted. Soldiers. sailors and marines, some of whom were in the thick Of the fighting overseas, are offering their services. Many of these men will be utilized as speakers to describe some of ths benefits accruing to the fighting men by reason of the presence of the Red Cross in the field of hostilities.
 During the first part of the cam palgn there will bs house-to-house canvassing for Red Cross member ships under distinct arrangement: : bat on the last two days district lines mon as we'll as women volunteer workers will take up their tasks with rowing commissions. Not only are discharged service men wanted as Rcd Cross canvassers but State and l National Guardsmen are urged to enroll as quickly as possible. The Red Cross welcomes assistance of all former Army and Navy officers and men who approved of the work of the Red Cross during the war.
 Speakers and writers are being sought by the organization and asked to do their bit" Numerous accept ances already have been received from speakers and at present determined effort is being made to obtain the services of all newspaper men who saw service overseas and are qualified to speak O. write of their adventures A Preliminary campaign is being waged through text posters and other printed matter that has been sent to throughout the country.
 Red Cross officials are stressing the point that the drive is to be made for. memberships only and that no appeal is contemplated wherein the general public will be asked for funds. An encouraging number of public spirited men and women through the division already have applied at Red Cross Chapters asking a renewal of their memberships for next year.

Something Must Be Done

" Ol lo CQd U the awful fire waste.
 Thoughtful business men are deeply concerned over the terri fic fire waste that is falling up- on the shoulders of the public in the form of increased living costs. Fire waste is adding it $ burden each year by millions of dollars to the cost of living, says the current issue of the South ern Construction News, of Lit tie Rock.
 In Little Rock every man, woman and child is contribut. ing to a fire was. in that city alone that runs to $420,OO0 a year, based on 1918 figures. This is $6 year for every one of the 10000 residents. or $50 per family of 5.
 The widespread interest in the subject of Misrepresentation is exempllfied in the general man ner in which Fire Prevention Day was observed this year that the people are becoming keenly aroused to the necessity of doing something about fire prevention. To quote the Mem phis Commercial Appeal:
 After four years of world destruction and wastage it is automatic that the only salvation for the world can be in the en- ploy ment of all our energies in making good what has been wasted. This can be done only by keeping production at the maximum and further wastage at the minimum. Under these con ditiors any destruction that is avoidable is little short of criminal. When we stop to think that S300,00O,000 of in- sured and other millions of non insured property is destroyed in this country every year by fires we are brought face to face with a situation that demands immediate and effective reform. Underwriters estimate that $500, 100000 worth of construc- tion work is done in this coun- try each 12 months, and of this amount 60 per cent is destroyed by fires. And of this heavy loss | it is figured that 80 per cent is avoidable. Such a condition of affairs bears witness on it's face that the necessity of some meas. ures of prevention. This appall- I ing sacrifice of constructive en- ergy is matter of serious mo
 ment, not only because of it's folly. but also because of the | higher fire rates that it causes. Business loses time, energy and resources that could otherwise be employed most profitably and at the same time has to pay a high tax for it's loss.
 Common sense demands a change. Home owners, Occu- pants of residences and mana gers ot industrial plants all should join in the work of mak- ing their places as safe from fire as possibly can De done. Every building should be cleaned up from cellar to garrett and any hazardous condition that migLt t cause a fire or facilitate a spread should be corrected. In partic- ular should close inspection of electric wiring be made, because defective insulation and short circuits are prolific sources of fire. No better days work could
