MORE than 5000 people, including
delegates to the convention of
the Arizona Cattle Growers associa
ton. the members of the state legis-
lature and state officials, paid tribute
to the culinary abilities of Sheriff John
Montgomery at the state fair grounds
yesterday by partaking of a barbecue
which followed the close OF the cattle
growers convention and preceded the
field day exercises of the cadets of the
high schools of the valley.
Long before noon. at which time the
barbecue was scheduled to be served,
the crowd had started to congregate at
the grounds, and when the luscious
joints of beef. pork and mutton were
ready for carving two long lines of
hungry and expectant diners had been
formed. and these lines. added to by
newcomers at one end and fading away
on the other into groups of contented
citizens, their wives and families. con-
tinued until after 3 O'Clock, when only
few charred bones remained over the
pits and only suspicion of what had
been bushels of beans was left in the
cauldrons.
Preparations for the barbecue were
perfect. There was not hitch as the
lines moved along; the meat was ten
der and well-done, and the coffee,
which is the chief accompaniment of
any well-regulated barbecue, was the
cause of continual favorable comment.
The entire affair was not only fit
ting windup of the cattlemen's conven-
ton, but chief feature of the entire
Convention Week program. What re-
manned of the feast after the last
diner had been served was given to the
Salvation Army.
The beef for the barbecue was fur
nished by the Arizona Packing COM
pany, shorty Davis, l.. l.. Harmon
and the Babbftt- Doyle company. f. A.
Reid furnished the pork, while the
mutton came from the Campbell and
Francis company, Porter brothers,
Charles Foley and others.
The parking arrangements at the
fair grounds were under the direction
of Deputy Sheriffs AL De Witt and
r. M. Price. who succeeded in getting
a larger number of cars into the regu-
lar parking space, it was estimated,
than had ever been accomplished there
before. The officers kept the traffic
moving and overcame previous diff
culties Of getting cars in and out in a
manner which was commented upon
with pleasure by the hundreds of auto
lists who attended the barbecue and
field program.

After drifting at sea four days. the
barge S. NJ. 1O7. with her crew Of
two men. was picked up yesterday by
the coast guard cutter Manning 200
miles on the Delaware Bay and
taken in tow to Philadelphia.
The S. NJ tO7 Is a large oil lighter
and was being towed by the Eugene

pico. Mexico. when the latter collided
with the Jennie Flood Kreger In a
heavy fog Off Fenwick Light Ship,
near the Delaware Capes. The Thay-
er came TO Wilmington and Is az the
Harlan shipyards undergoing repairs.
Although the barge crew had pro-
visions enough TO last for a month
and were adrift in a much traversed
sea route. they had given up hope OF
being rescued when four days had
passed and they saw no signs OF
either land or a vessel. owners OF
the barge believed the men TO be In
no danger on account OF their To-
cation. but the men believed that
they had drifted into a little-traveled
section Of the ocean.
The lighter is owned by the Union
