John Miller, . Navajo Indian,
employed on the Red Mesa ranch
near Durango, Colorado, worked
industriously and saved his money.
On the reservation lived an Indian
maid who had promised to marry
him. Miller ceuld not afford to
lay off and 50 he sent word for her
to join him and they would be
married at the ranch.
1t was 40 miles from her nome
to the ranch. She walked the en-
tire distance, leading goat as
gift to her betrothed. When Size
reached the La Plata river it was
pyt Of bounds and there was no
bridge for many miles,
She staked the goat in q grassy
plot, removed her clothing and

asked to go to Durango and obtain

the first day of the celebration
would have availed themselves OF
the opportunity to take a ride in
the air. Monday afternoon Driver
Mahlone awed the residents of the
village by several daredevil stunts
directly over the village, among
which was the turning of COM
plete somersault with the machine
when at very high altitude,
and repeated the performance on
the afternoon of the 18th. Lieut..
Hit, of the British Flying Corps
who does the acrobatic feats on
the plane, has an enviable record
in that branch Of the service gained
during the World war, he having
shot down Is German planes and
was himself shot down on several
occasions.
When the weather cleared up in
the afternoon the Band, composed
of over thirty pieces arrived on
the grounds ard furnished some
excellent music. Two cowboys
contributed to the entertainment
in tue afternoon by riding bucking
bronches and the small crowd that
was present found plenty to oc'
cupy their attention. A ball
game between local players and
the personnel of the Fertile team
was played in the afternoon at the
school grounds.
AS the weather has cleared the

Carpenter Boxes Brisklv.

MANHAssET, n. Y. June AFTER
spending large part of the morning on
the road and in the gymnasium, Carpen-
tier ate a light lunch and appeared for
work again at O'Clock. First came
the slow but hard hitting Joe jeanette,
who felt not a few of Georges's punches
In the two rounds that they boxed.
Jack Goldberg of Panama, Il welter-
weight. was the star sparring partner
performer. He proceeded to give the
challenger the best workout he has had
on this side of the water.
They boxed fast and Carpenter for the
first time displayed the speed which for
some unknown reason he has held IN
leash since beginning training. Around
the ring he danced, working his punches
accurately and in rapid succession.
He attempted to check his blows 80 as
not to hurt his clever opponent but on
one occasion his pistonlike right caught
Goldberg on the jaw and he fell to Car
pentier's shoulder. Georges held him
until he could recuperate. Goldberg re-
covered quickly and they were at 1t
faster than ever.
When the two rounds were over
Georges patted Goldberg affectionately
on the shoulders laughed and said:
Fine. that's good the best I've had"

Dempsey laughed at reports that he
was studying French so that he could
confuse Carpenter when they get into

deny ing tie report
"Anyho~, I won't have much use for
the French language I will be so
busy / won't have any time TO talk a

languages.
Martin Burke. the New Orleans heavy-
weight. returned to-day, bringing a new

caulihower ear from further damage
when he faces the champion. After in
specting the headgear, Dempsey handed
it back to Burke with this remark. Mar
