 Realizing, too late. when the pas senger train rushed past her station that she had failed to deliver an or. der for that train to meet the heavy cantaloupe train at Kirkland, the next station south, and crowding before her minds eye pictures of the terri. ble results that were to ensue, shs wired incoherently 10 the officials at Prescott:
 They did not stop at the tank"
 This being unintelligible to the of. hcials, they wired back and learned of the failure to deliver the order. They knew then that the passenger train was rushing onto crash into the heavy freight and went about at once to make preparations for the relief train for the wreck they were certain would follow.
 At a late hour yesterday morning the young woman operator had not been told of the death Of any in the collision. She has been operator a; skull Valley for two years.
 No More Deaths Likely
 That there would probably be no further deaths as a result of the wreck was the word brought from the hospital at Prescott last night by John R. Brown. superintendent of the Phoenix Indian school. who reached home al lO;i5 o'clock after an extend. ed eastern trip.

WARNS vANDALs WHO CUT
 PIPES AT ARMY POST

 Colonel F. c. Marshall, command. ing the 10th cavalry. stationed at Fort Hpachuca, has published the following letter, which is self-explana- tory:
 From Commanding Officer
 To whom 1t may concern.
 Subject: Fort Huachuca Water Supply.
 1. Positive evidence that persons unknown have been tampering with the Fort Huachuca water supply by breaking the pipes and by plugging up the intakes. This has been done before, and as the only beneficaries are the stock men whose cattle range on the military reservation. the blame for this tampering must res: on them.
 2. Orders have been given to have he pipe line inspected daily, and in case any tampering with the water system of this post is discovered, the first step taken will be to drive all stock not pertaining to the garrison off the reservation and the posting of guards at the entrances to prevent their return.
 3. My wish is 10 i've in peace with my neighbors; would much prefer that the grass on the range be eaten rather than to be wasted, and am anxious that the excess water, in Gar den canyon and the other parts of the reservoir be available for my neighbours stock. but l must be met in the same friendly sp,r;.
 Please understand, definitely, that will not tolerate with patience such acts Of vandalism as l have discover ed in Garden canyon. tSlsned) F. C. MARSHALL.

SIX HUNDREDTH YEAR
SINCE DANTE'S DEATH
IS TO BE OBSERVED

ROME, Oct. 29.--(A. P.)-Prepara-
tions are being made to celebrate in
1921 the 6O0th anniversary of the
death of Dante Alighieri in Rome,
Florence and Ravenna but a Disagree
ment already has developed as to the
expense of the proposed celebration.
Sem Benelli, poet, dramatist and
deputy, has introduced in the cham
her of Deputies, a bill appropriating
e.000,0 900 lire to cover the cost of lec-
lures, commemorations, illuminations
and other forms of tribute.
This proposed expenditure, however,
is opposed by Benedetto Groce, the
newly appointed Minister OF Instrue-
ton, himself a distinguished poet,
critic and auther, who declared that
in these hard and serious times he dis
approved on the principle of this form
of honoring the memory Of Italy's SUI
premely great writer.
Instead Signor Croce invited his fell
low countrymen to celebrate the sixth
centenary of Dantes death by re-read-
ing the works of the great poet. Some
approved of this'suggestion while oth-
,ers were indignant.
The poems of Dante, even in Italy,
are more talked about than studied
and it is to be feared that few will do
more than take down and dandle with
reverence the much thumbled copies Of
the poet who gave the first great Inn
pulse to modern European literature,
Dante was born in Florence, in May,
1855 and died September IA. 1921, at
Rayenna where he lies buried.
