While excavat- ing in the heart of the Painted Desert, in which is situated the Zuni Oil Company's oil we'll, President T. H. Jordan and oth- CTS had the fortune to encounter one, the Holbrook Tribune is in- formed. We say fortunate from the fact that no serious difficulty or accident happened to the party making the discovery.
 The "child of the earth" is said to be one of the most deadly on earth. the poison emitted from it claimed to be most fatal The reptile is said to he almost human in form, especially with reference to the head. The Holbrook Tri- bune is told that 1t looks almost like a small infant.
 It is needless to state that the party took no chances with it. but promptly destroyed the creature. fearing that something unfortu- nate might happen in attempting to capture it alive. Nothing but a cold shiver among those pres, ent occurred to mar the incident. Tribune.

County road engineer. Gustav
 Becker was in the city Monday
 and Tuesday and met with the
 board of supervisors, who were in regular session.
 Yesterday morning he left with a force of men to work on the road between St. Johns and Zuni. This road, after crossing the Zuni River will follow the high plateau on the north side of of the Zuni River and will strike the New Mexico line near the old Earth ranch. Mckinley county officials have promised to meet us there with a good road from Gallup to the state line With this road open for automobile travel a good commercial business can and will be established between Apache and Mckinley counties in the states of Arizona and New Mex leo, besides opening up a very scenic highway, one of great in- terest to tourists. The far famed Zuni pueblos and a side trip of some 30 miles to Inscription Rock and the grand and beautiful scenery of the Zuni mountains will be seen by those who desire to travel this route.
 Those who wish to go to the part of the state will find that the route from Gallup via St. Johns, Springerville and Clifton will be one continuous trip of joy and enchantment because of the beautiful scenic places to be seen all along the way.
 MT. Becker informs us that $215, 900 is being placed on the Old Trails Highway in New Mex leo between Magdalena an d and the work is to be completed by the last of Aug ust. The road is to be graded ard we'll surfaced. This road, even now, is by far the best high way across the states of New Mexico and Arizona and will be joy indeed when the part now be- ing worked is completed. The from Springerville via St. Johns, Concho to Holbrook is all that could be desired for travel and more is being done all the time to make it better.
 With Mir. Becker on the job, no thing is left undone that will be for the improvement of the road and the comfort of those who may care to travel the same. The road is one of the most scenic to be found any where.
