 IN MOGOLLONS

A bull elk was killed in the Mogol- lon range recently by a hunter who mistook the elk for blacktail buck, according to a report received by the forest service office. A rancher re- ported that a man passed his place after dark and said that he had killed the biggest blacktail buck he had ever seen. The rancher saw the "buck" and declared that it was an elk.

DYNAMITE CAPS
 FOUND IN COAL

The timely discovery by Harve Blair of six dynamite caps in a pail of coal that he was bringing in for the kitchen stove of The Palms Cafe, prevented what might have been a serious explosion and destroyal of property, and probably loss of life.
 MT. Blair immediately informed the sheriff's office and Deputy Sheriff Beal secured the caps.
 The caps were lying in the coal next to the pool room fence and were partly covered by the coal. No more caps were found by MT. Blair.-Saf- ford Guardian.

South Bend Plant Jumps Production
 on New Light Six Model.

Exclusive Dispatch.)
 SOUTH BEND (Ind.) Nov. 5.-The Studebaker corporation reports sales for the quarter ended September 30 were $27 1923 sos, an increase of $5,- 754,309 over the June quarter, but the balance available for common stock dividends was $3.51 a share, compared with $4.71 per share in the preceding quarter.
 In connection with the earnings statement A. R. Erskine, president, says: While our sales for the third quarter exceeded those of last year by 30 per cent, our net profits are less because we have absorbed a sub stantial part of the abnormal ex- penses of preliminary production of the new plant at South Bend and made other reserves.
 "The new plant is now on a profit making basis, producing 130 cars a day, which find ready sale. We have made no curtailment of production at South Bend, but instead are building up production of 150 light sixes day and are striving to hold our operat- ing forces intact"
