Mile. darcy assured him he might have
tea with her the first time she could go

On this occasion Of the first tea Captain
Reynolds learned who Mile. darcy was
daughter OF a wealthy family of Versailles,
she had won fame throughout the CONT

Asia, and so far as is known was the only
woman ever to accompany an expedition

The young girl, visiting in Burma with
her father, heard OF the white elephant

Against her fathers orders she led her
heaters out secretly in the dead of the

BABY ESCAPES HURT
 IN TERRIFIC STORM

How Mother Nature handled some of the pioneers who settled in the Salt River valley is indicated by the following incident narrated by Mrs. w. w. Jones. now living at Buckeye.
 What was it-a miracle-or just luck?
 From April, 1885, to November, 1899, the home of the w. w. Jones family was what is now known as the Locket ranch, near the Washing ton school When we arrived in Phoenix via the Evans freight line eight horse transport team, we were more than delighted to learn from many of the earlier settlers that heavy storms, high winds and thun- der were unknown here in Arizona. But before the ranch house we

PEACEFUL INDIANS

 BYMRS. C.C. HURLEY

MT. and Mrs. c. C. Hurley live in the same comfortable adobe house on McDowell road that housed them when they arrived in Phoenix 36 years ago. Even in that day, when Indians were generally regarded with suspicion, Mrs. Hurley found anoth- CT side to them by taking personal interest in their affairs and won their friendship.
 In telling of her arrival here with her husband in 1885, Mrs Hurley says:
 we arrived in Maricopa, Novem- Der g, 1885, coming from St. Law renee county. N. Y. The hotel ac- commodations at Maricopa were not exactly first class. To add to other discomforts, the place was swarm ing with flies. 1 never before real ized so many of these pests could congregate in one place.
 From Maricopa we drove to Phoe- nix in a double seated buggy. As we entered the Gila reservation an ! old Indian signaled for us to stop. He was the first redman I had ever seen and he frightened me. Stories | of Indian atrocities were immediate | ly recalled. But my fears. were quick | ly assauged when the terrible saw | age' meekly begged for little to- | bacco Mir. Hurley had been through | | that the Indians on the Gila reser- vation at that time were very peace | full.
 l Thousands of head of cattle were pasturing along the Salt river when ! we arrived there and presented
 scene of arresting picturesdueness. Brothers and sisters of MT. Hurley welcomed us at the Hurley ranch and I was made to thoroughly en- joy my new home in the west.
 A few days after we arrived I was in the kitchen when I heard a slight
 noise. I turned and saw a big In dian standing in the doorway. l
 screamed and ran for the front door
 Outside the house I recovered my
 composure when I saw the Indian running as fast as he could across
 the fields. have often wondered
 whether it was the Indian or myself
 who was frightened the most.
 I soon learned to like the Indian:
 and one of my guests in those early
 days was Guan Jose. the Maricops
 chief. He often came and visited
 us for a week at a time. During hi. Hast years his grandchildren used tt

were building was quite finished a storm came up. A terrific wind. ac- companied by thunder and lightning seemed to come through the pass in the mountains. The wind turned the house over completely, leaving it standing bottom up, the roof on the ground.
 Now, when we hark back to the incident we wonder how our baby came to be lying unhurt on the ground on the opposide side of the building from which he was sleeping in his bed. There he was, lying ! under heavy timber that was rest ing on another block just four inches ! above his head. He was awake and trying to rub the raindrops out ot his eyes,

He returned to Phoenix in 1880. and has made this his home ever since, although frequently in other sections of the state for periods of months.
 In 1889, he entered the employ of the government in the quartermas- ter's corps at Fort Mcdowell, and for three years he made trips between Phoenix and the fort.
 Prior to this he drove the stage for Jim Stewart between Prescott and Phoenix, he said. The trip was made over the Black Canyon road and was considered a very hazard ous journey in the early sos.
 At one time, MT. DeWinton was a member of a posse that trailed the Apache Kid for several weeks through the Chiricahua mountains. In re- cent years he has served as a deputy sheriff and now resides at 1911 North Twelfth street. Phoenix.
