Goes Over Cliff

CENTRAL.-What might have ter
minated in fatal accident, and which
gave the Central camp a thrill the
like Of which it has never experienced
before, occurred a few days ago at
the Central store. Chris Flanders
had secured a Ford belonging to Mr.
Postlethwait, and was starting to go
down into the valley. In order to
turn the car he ran it to the edge of
the embankment on the road back of
the store. In attempting to back
it he accidentally stepped on the low
gear lever in place of the reverse
lever. The car moved forward over
the embankment and started on it's
precipitous journey down the steep
mountain side. Flanders saw he could
not stop it and climbed over the seat,
jumping out of the rear of the car.
He was bruised but not badly injured.
The car reached the rocky cliff be-
low and leaped over it but in land
ing the wheels broke and it was piled
in heap among the rocks below the
cliff. 1t did not reach the bottom OF
the canyon. The car is total wreck.
Flanders escaped none too soon.

A tentative budget was adopted to

this budget each town or city will
pay certain amount monthly. in pro
portion to its size. for the support of
the organization and the publicity
campaign.
1t was announced at the meeting
that the locating scouts of the Auto
Club of Southern California, which

coed mining prospects in the country
and that the building of the railroad
viii probably result in THEIR develop
ment. Ore already developed on the
Erupcion property is sufficient to war
rant the building of the road.
Hicklin said that the Mexican peo-
pie OF that section are friendly to the
project and that they have all taken Il
friendly attitude toward himself and
his corps of engineers.
Hicklin also made tn survey for the
proposed railroad from Ajo TO Rocky
Point, on the Gulf OF California, which
was completed last May He said that
this railroad will be 1929 miles in
length, 52R miles of which will be in
Mexico. That part that is in Mexico
nora Railway and the rest will be an
extension of the Tucson, Cornelia and
ella Bend Railroad
Wells are now being drilled along
the route in an effort to supply suffi-
cient water for construction purposes
Three wells have been developed out
of nine drilled, varying in depth from
165 to 800 feet
1t will take some expensive work
Hicklin said, to develop a harbor at
Rocky Point. A breakwater will have
to be built in addition to piers. The
Gulf of Mexico is generally thought OF
as sort of harEor in itself, but Hick
lin said that the water is sometimes
very rough and that it will be neces
sary to protect shipping by building a
harbor.
The route of the proposed road is a
remarkably easy one. Hicklin said
that practically all OF the country
through which the railroad will pass
is desert and that it will not result in
much development along the road.
AS far as is known the Ajo tC
Rocky Point railroad has not been fl
nanced and there is no intention OF
undertaking construction work i'm
mediately.

Make Love and Live Lona.

The act Of love-making has direct
influence on the heart and blood. says
medical correspondent. 1t stimu-
lates the working capacity of the for
mer organ. and keeps It up to concert
pitch. AS a result, the blood circu-
lates with greater strength. and every
part of the body Is accordingly
strengthened. Love-making, moreover,
has a very decided influence in stimu-
lating the working Of the liver. Pat
ent medicines would have to 60 out of
business to considerable extent If the
world were more generally given to
the art Of making love with genuine
feeling. Perhaps the most striking
proof Of the immunity Of lovers from
one form of i'll, viz, colds and chills.
is afforded by the fact that pair Of
Cupid's devotees Will sit on damp

crazy dream. But listen, both Of you.
If we have got to die, up here In the
snow-and it looks like we had-what
is the thing you want done worst be-
fore we go?'
Lennox's hands clasped, and he
leaned forward on the sled. "Pay
CranstOn |" he said.
"Yes" Dams voice rang. "Crans-
toms never going to be paid unless we
do it. There will be no signs Of In
cend!arism at the house, and no
proofs. They'll find our bodies in the
snow. and We'll just be a mystery,
with no one made to pay. The evil
dence in my pocket will be taken by
Cranston, some time this winter. If l
don't make him pay, he never will pay.
And that's one reason why I'm going
to, try to carry out this plan I've got.
"The second reason is that it's the
one hope we have left. l take 1t that
none of us are deceived on that point.
And no man can die tamely-if he is
a man-while there's chance. l mean
young man, like me-nOt one who Is
old and tired. 1t sounds perfectly silly
to talk about finding Cranston's win
ter quarters, and then, with my bare
hands, conquering him. taking his food
and his blankets and his snowshoes
and his rifle, to fight away these
wolves, and bringing 'em back here.
"You wouldn't be barehanded," the
girl reminded him. 'You could have
the pistol"
He didn't even seem to hear her.
1--WE been thinking about it. It's
long, long chance-much worse than
the chance we had Of getting out by
straight walking. I think we could
have made it, if the wolves had kept
off and the snowshoe hadn't broken.
It would have nearly killed us, hut l
believe we could have got out. That's
why l didn't try this other way first.
A man with his bare hands hasn't
much of a chance against another with
a rifle, and don't want you to be too
hopeful. And of course. the hardest
problem is finding his camp.
sBut l do feel sure of one thing:
that he is back to his old trapping line
on the North FOrk-somewhere south
of here-and his camp is somewhere
| on the river. l think he would have
| gone there 50 that he could cut off any
attempt l might make to get through
| with those letters. My plan is to start
| back at an angle that will carry me
| between the North Fork and our old
J house. Somewhere in there I'll find
, his tracks, the tracks he made when
he first came over to burn up the
house. I suppose he was careful TO
mix 'em up after once he arrived
here, but the first part of the way he
likely walked straight toward the
house from his camp. Somewhere, If l
20 that way, I'll cross his trail-with-
in 10 miles at least. Then I'll back
track him to his camp"
"And never come back!" the girl
cried
Maybe not. But at least every
thing that can be done will be done.
Nothing will be left. No regrets. We
will have made the last trial. I'm not
going to waste any time, Snowbird.
The sooner we get your fire built the

and then glided from tree to tree. In
reality, he was not looking for wolves.
He was gazing down into his own soul,
measuring his own spirit for the trial
that lay before him.
The girl. unable to step with the
broken snowshoe, rested her weight on
one foot and hobbled like bird with
broken wings across to him. No sight
of all this terrible journey had been
more dreadful in her fathers eyes
than this. It seemed to split open
the strong heart Of the man. She
touched her hand to his arm.
I'm sorry, Dan,' she told him. "You
tried so hard"
Just one little sound broke from his
throat-a strange. deep gasp that
could not be suppressed. Then he

spoke. In.
