SEVERE OHM BRINGS PAIN
 AND HAIL
Tombstone Canyon Included in Itinerary of Hardest
 Rain This Summer

One of the heaviest rain and hail storms that has visited the county this summer swept over a wide patch between Bisbee and Tombstone yester day. The Government Draw and Di- vide sections received the greater part of the fall, with Upper Tomb stone Canyon coming in for much of the rain and some hail.
 A low, steady roar heralded the ap- proachsof the hail storm. For at least five minutes before the storm arrived, residents of the upper end of the canyon listened to peculiar noise. Some thought it was a flood coming down the canyon, some said earthquake" and others were eel tain an express train had switched onto the street car tracks by mis- take.
 A sudden rattle of hailstones on roofs, however, proved the real source of the roar. Hail as big as marbles fell for about a minute and then the storm passed on. Little rain and no hail fell in the downtown section.
 On the Tombstone side of the Di- vide the storm ragged unaoaued. iiaII stones and heavy rain continued TOT several minutes. Government Draw became the scene of a small flood. Several automobile parties were fore ed to stop when motors were flooded and flood waters raced across roads.

Severe Rain and Hail Storm

TOMBSTONE - Shortly before 4 o'clock this afternoon Tombstone was visited by a cloudburst accompa- nied by hailstones as big as marbles which literally covered the ground. In a few minutes the streets of Tomb stone were rivers of water, while for some time a layer of ice remained where it had been banked by the wa ter. Hail this time of the year is un- usual and the temperature was lower ed considerably as a result. The rain lasted over 30 minutes and was ac- companied by steady drizzle. If the downpour is gener>I it is conceded that the railroad tracks between Fair bank and Benson, on which repairs of washouts of several days ago had been about completed, would again go out. An attempt was made this afternoon by the local train to make the Benson trip, and if they succeed in getting by the return tonight will be problemetical.

ALL STREET CARS IN DES MONIES
 ARE STOPPED
Automobiles, Trucks, Wag- ons and other Vehicles to
 be Used in Emergency

DES MONIES, Iowa, Aug B. On the eve of the cessation of street car service at midnight tonight, Des Moines is hurriedly making prepara- tions to transport the S0,00O or more persons who have heretofore depend. ed upon street cars to take them to and from their daily tasks.
 Nearly every conceivable sugges- tion is being made to the city coun- cil, including use of the street car tracks by busses equipped with flang- ed wheels, licensing of busses for one year, emergency licenses for automo- bile owners who wish to enter the transportation field, organization of automobile owners into classes ac- cording to whether they transport people free ST charge for the service, and a wholesale pickup" campaign for aiding the busses in transporting citizens.
 No automobile, whatever it's appear ance or condition, is despised under present circumstances. Even wagons and carts will be utilized in the out lying districts, having been hauled from their promised oblivion to meet the emergency.
 Persons living in the districts near CT to the downtown loop are being urged to walk as much as possible in order that those living further out may ride.
 With the bus owners promising OIL ly makeshift service until the city council grants them franchises for from one to five years, no relief from these conditiors; is in sight.
 Suspension of the street car serv- ice is the continuation of a struggle of several years. Company officials say that the situation is the direct result of the inability of the company to operate under a five cent fare without bus competition. and under an eight cent fare with unrestricted bus competition. The company has been in the hands of receivers for several years and it was at the re- quest of Receiver F. c. Chambers and bondholders that a court order was issued yesterday bringing about cessation of services. The order de clared that the property could not be operated longer without financial pre- judice to the bondholders and gener- al creditors and that it must there fore be sold to satisfy boHd and gen. eral debts.

Opera House Draped

NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-rhe exterior of the Metropolitan Opera House, where Enrico Caruso was a leading tenor for IS seasons, was draped in mourning today as a mark of sorrow brought by the death of the noted singer. The black draperies will re. main on the opera house 30 days.
 According to a will, which c. J. Sperco, notary, said he Grew up for Caruso, two years ago, the bulk of the estate was to be divided equally upon his death, among his six near est relatives. They are the tenor's widow, their daughter, Gloria; his two sons by a previous marriage, Ro dolfo and Enrico, his brother Giovan- nj and his stepbrother.
 "Caruso spent his earnings like wildfire," Sperco said He never got more than $25OO a performance singing at the opera here. He never refused the appeal for aid from fel- low countryman. He had lots of ap- reals and always appeased them with S100 bills. His income tax in 1919 was $170,000. Last year it was $165- 000."
