Mr.. Johnson FINDS WALLET
Indianapolis Attorney Wakes Up When
He Hears GIeefuI GiaoIes From

Ensley w. Johnson, attorney, was
taking spin in his car on country
road southeast Of Indianapolis the
other evening when, approaching a
little town, he, saw a large, plump,
leather purse lying between the
wheel tracks. Mr.. Johnson thrilled
with tie ancient pleasure OF discov-
cry. He stopped the car and climbed
out, wondering silently who had
dropped the wallet, and how many
green or yellow crinky ones were in
1t. He looked around as he. alighted,
and saw that the roadway was walled
on either side with pigmy forest OF
ironweeds. ragweeds, horseweeds and
jimpson, forming jungle that crowded
in as # to close the highway.
Walking back to the spot where the
purse had been, the attorney rubbed
his eyes. No purse was there; instead,
there was wide welt in the dust as
IL some, object had been dragged
diagonally across the right-of-way. The
same moment broadside Of gleeful
giggles burst from the weed jungle,
left, and right. Mr. Johnson did not
pause. He did not even speak. He
smiled slightly as he clambered into

Small Clouds on Jupiter.

Prof. w. II. Pickering,s'in IA recent
address before the British Astronom
ical association, recalled the fact that
during his observations ut Arequipa he
noticed that the surface Of Jupiter, In
stead of being composed Of uniform
bands Of yellowish white or brown,
really consisted Of an enormous num-
Der of extremely minute reddish brown
clouds seen upon a perfectly white
background. The effect Of belts was
produced where the cloudlets were nu.
merous, and the light spaces where
they were scarce. He compared the
appearance Of these spots to the we'll
known rice grains, on the sun. Their
length lay in the direction of rotation
of the planet. He said he had since
observed the cloudlets III Jallaica, and
they have been seen in England by

"BLACK SHEEP" AT THE REX
THEATER LAST TIME TODAY

Things begin to happen in the very
! first scene of "Black Sheep" which
opened at the Rex theater last night
8iforia two-day run.
Even before you are comfortably
seated you will find yourself neck
deep in interest in this dynamic drama
of one, of the most unusual wars ever
staged in this or any other country.
1T is picture based upon the war be-
tween the cattlemen and the sheep
herders and it was no gentlemen's
war either.
The hotbed of these hostilities was
in Wyoming, the locale of this pic
Eture, and before it ended many lives
were lost and thousands of dollars
worth of sheep and cattle destroyed.
Neal Hart is the star of this pro-
duction, which excels any of his pre-
vious efforts both in histrionic and
artistic effects. He is supported by
an exceptionally clever cast, which
makes this one of the best western
productions ever shown at the Rex.

"THE MAGIC CUP" AT THE
ELKO THEATER TONIGHT

There is romance a-plenty, some
real tragedy, and an occasional bit Of
comedy to be found in every pawn
shop, if only the story of each loan
and each parting with something held
dear, could be learned.
A romance of the pawnshop, which
narrowly escaped becoming tragedy,
Ills that of "The Magic Cup" the lat
#est Constance Binney picture. The
magic cup was an old silver goblet,
the one and only heirloom of little
5scullery maid at a New York hotel.
OF course it leads her through
many adventures to happiness and TO
nance.
Constance Binney impersonates the
girl, Vincent Coleman, as newspaper
reporter, has the leading male role,
and Charles Mussett, j. H. Gilmour,
Malcolm Bradley and Cecil Owen
have supporting roles. John S. Rob-
Sertson, who directed Miss Binney's
first picture, "Erstwhile Susan" and
also "39 East" is again responsible
for the production.
"The Magic Cup" will be shown
at the Elko theater tonight, also Fri
day matinee and evening.

American newspapers are spending
considerably more on their service
abroad than for parallel service In

local interest in Europe calls the
American journalists to the spot. For

FOR HEAT SUFFERERS
English Savant Who Probably Knows

The obvious eXpedient of avoiding
exposure to the sun, stimulating"
foods and drinks, and the use of dark
and heat-retaining garments is not
always sufficient to keep the human
body cool. In spite of these precaul-
lions, many persons suffer from heat

detriment of their. health and eff:

DAMS WILL PREVENT FLOODS
Catastrophe That Overwhelmed the
City Of Pueblo Can Be Avoided
d.. by Proper Action.

A disastrous flood occurs, causing
loss Of many human lives and MIL
lions Of dollars worth of property.
What happens next? What precautions
are taken to prevent disaster? q
Usually what happens is that the suf-
fering community cOurageously under
takes the task of reconstruction. The
flood is called an "act of God" and
confidence is felt that there will be
no repetition Of the calamity. But
the conditions that gave rise to the
disaster continue to exist, and such
being the case, there is no assurance
that it will not repeat itself. u
If the catastrophe that overwhelmed
the city Of Pueblo is not to be repeated,
again and yet again perhaps, pre-
ventive measures must be adopted.
Dams must be built and reservoirs
constructed at the headwaters Of the
Arkansas river to impOund its floods.
The government reclamation service
points out that floods not less destruc-
tive might occur in any year on the
Rio Grande if the waters Of that
stream were not held in leash by the
great Elephant Butte dam. Before
that dam, with it's vast reservoir, was
constructed, flood time and again
wreaked havoc in the vicinity of Ell
Paso. -
The Elephant Butte dam is one of
the greatest engineering works on the
globe. 1t is 3O6 feet high, nearly one
third OF mile long, and creates the
largest irrigation reservoir in the world
AN artificial lake covering GO square
miles and averaging 70 feet in depth.
The water contained in the reservoir
would cover the whole state Of Con-
nccticut to a depth of ten inches.
Development Of similar works on the
.headwatersgssof Y thesH3A Arkansas river
would not only prevent future floods,
but would store water for irrigating
hundreds Of thousands Of acres, and
furnish water power forsalr!the manu-
featuring industries In that part OF
the country. y.
