FIRST STAGE ARRIVES OVER APACHE TRAIL
 SINCE HIGH WATER

Driving. the first stage over the Apache Trail since the flood made parts of it impossible. A. J. tTex) Butler arrived in Phoenix from Globe last night with six passengers who had faith enough in. the driver and car to hazard the scouting trip.
 T was surprised to find the road little affected by the high water But Ter said after he had safely landed his passengers at the Union Auto stage office here about 2 o'clock last night. ''The only bad section encountered on the entire trip was short stretch of road which parallels the river. There was a gang of 40 Indians working on that place at the time we crossed it, and judging by the headway they were making. the road will be in good con- dition tomorrow.
 Butler reported that at no place along the trail had the water washed away more than the surface of the road. He encountered sections of the highway where the water was still but he found the surface underneath the swater to be solid. He made the entire trip from Globe to Phoenix without encOuntering any serious trouble.
 From Globe to Roosevelt he found a continual procession of motor cars carrying people to view the gigantic waterfalls which flood conditions have created at Roosevelt dam. The water will continue to cataract over the spillways of the dam for several days selves of the opportunity to view this unusual spectacle. A Raymond-Whi hit comb party of 60 tourists is scheduled to make the trip over the trail from

LONDON.-Almost eighty thousand caddies trudge the golf courses in the United Kingdom, mostly youths be- tween fl and IS. TIIe question of their future is seriously exercising the minds of the golf club secretaries, who have the welfare of the race at heart. Car rying golf clubs leads to nowhere as regards a mans career.
 St. Georges Hill Golf Club at Wey- bridge the most fashionable club in England, has tackled the problem man fully and it's example is to be followed by other clubs throughout Great Brit ain. During their idle hours when not carrying clubs the boys and disabled soldiers of whom a number are em- ployed are to be trained to trGI>s that will ultimately enable them to ob tain employment of regular and progressive nature After three years service with the club the caddie will receive bonus of $50 provided he wishes to leave in order to follow a trade he has learned.
 firstclass bootnlaker has been en- gagged to instruct caddieS in boot mak- ing; in order to make the plan profit able members of the club send their repairs to school.

SIGN CONTRACT FOR BUILDING
 GILLESPIE DAM
Great New York Concern Is To Complete Project on Site of the Old Wolfley Dam Near Gila Bend

A contract has recently been entered into between F. A. Gillespie and the New York Foundation company for the completion of the dam Of the Gi1a Water and Power company this side of Gila Bend on the site of the old Wolfley dam- The arrangements were con- cluded at Los Angeles on Saturday be- tween MT. Gillespie and his engineer J. B. Girand, and G. Y- Rays of New York, representing the Foundation company.
 This work was undertaken by the Crowley company, which, by the way, undertook the building of the Woifley dam nearly 30 years ago. It had not recently made headway and a short time ago the contract with Gillespie was cancelled. Its equipment is still on the ground and probably it will be used in the interest of expedition, though the Foundation company has trainloads of equipment in different parts of the country.
 The work on the dam will be under the direction at first of the division superintendent of the San Francisco office of the company, until superin- tendent can be brought from the east.
 Under the contract with the Crowley company the work was to be completed by February of this year, but it is estimated that there remains about

sS00.000 or $1,0O0. 900 of construction yet to be done
 The New York Foundation company is, perhaps, tbe largest construction concern in the United States and it is not entirely unknown in Arizona, for 1t has sunk shafts and driven tunnels for the Ray Consolidated. the Old Dominion and the Miami Copper com pany.
 Does Business Throughout World
 It employs 26,0O0 men in different parts of the world. It. is extensively engaged in France and has a large force of men at the Sierra de Pasco mine in Peru. It has lately closed a $5,000,000 contract with the Standard Oil company for the enlargement of it's refineries at Point Richmond and Fl Segundo
 The company was extensively en- gagged in war work building chemical plants, munition plants, water works. dams, shipyards, harbors and piers and ships. It probably built more ships than any other one concern. Within a short period it delivered to the govern men 5 vessels and has yet several in the course of construction.
