suites on board ship. while army or ficers of higher relative rank weie given dark and dismal rooms. This is a small matter but 1t is indicative of the spirit existing between the two services"
 A single service with. perhaps. a similar uniform. may. it is thought break down this snobbishness. Not that the professional barriers be- tween the army and navy would not be maintained soldier would re- main a soldier and sailor a sailor. But upon occasion they would do the work of their country rather than the work of their separate depart nents. In New York harbor. for ex- ample, there are great warehouses owned by the war and navy depart ments- Each warehouse may be comparatively empty, and yet every one is guarded by soldier or sailor sentries. A common sense consoli- dation is not permitted.
 Problem of Food Supplies
 The army has had vast supplies of food on hand. The navy has been compelled to buy food in the open market. The system which would have been adopted by any. civilian ranking higher than chuck lehead would have been to make book transfer. Sometimes-a few | times-this has happened. More often the proposition has been re- fused. Only that providence re- | sponsible for the creation of the hu- man race knows why the avera ge man so soon gets departmentalized But it has happened that the army has tried to sell to the navy at a higher price than the navy could l buy in the open market. The army's l argument was good:
 That's what we paid for the stuff"
 The navy's argument was better. It twiddled its fingers at the end of its nose and went away and bought elsewhere Sometimes both the army and navy have been in the market for similar supplies at the same time. Did they pool their needs and pock- etbooks. as General Dawes did in France when he was doing the buy ing for all the American forces? Of course they did not. There was a l complete shortage of Daweses in l the foreground. The gallant officers of the army and navy charged with the buying went over the to pat each | other. They bid prices up until the sellers fell in apoplectic spasms brought on by sheer glee.

Eight Hundred Men
 March On Mingo
(Continued from Page One)

tions to have the courts free prison CTS taken under the provisions of Governor Morgan's martial law proclamation have been without avail. Only a few days ago the supreme court of appeals refused to release large number of men held in custody at Williamson, the county seat of Mingo, and upheld the gov- ernor's right to enforce martial law in that community, for the second time.
 c. F. Keeney, president of district No. IT. United Mine Workers of America, said tonight that the men could march to Mingo, as far as he was concerned and that he would not interfere. He said that he had been informed the miners were to have meeting >at Marmet but that he had not been invited to attend.
 T wash my hands of the whole affair."" he declared. i've interferred time and again to stop such enter prises. I seem to have halted them only temporarily. This time they can march to Mingo, so far as I am concerned" '"
 The miners president added that he had little faith in the ability Of the men to withstand the hardships of a march eighty miles across mountainous roads and discounted reports here that miners in Boone county were digging trenches and patrolling a seventeen mile front. He said the president of the union local at Blair, Logan county. re- ported to him that the Boone Logan border was quiet.

HEAVY RA|NF ALL IN MOUNTAINS ADDING
 TO RESERVOIR SUPPLY

After having dallied along as if he had absolutely no idea of the respon- abilities of his position, J. Pluvius, chief rain maker on Olympus, got into the harness Friday evening. at least as far as the Salt River valley was concerned, and did noble" For more than ear he had been content to give this section of. his dominions a light sprinkling at widespread in tervals. until it seemed that he was preparing to withdraw his ministra- tions altogether, but with an even half inch of rain for one day and a total of .61 of an inch for the period from Friday evening until yesterday afternoon he more than made up for his delinquency of the summer. It was the best rain, at least as far as quantity is concerned, that the Salt River valley has had since 1919.
 That MT. Pluvius was really out to do something out of the ordinary is shown by the fact that he caused downfalls of rain generally through out the county. His speciality during the summer has been to localize the rains to such fine degree that at times it rained on one side of the street while the other was dry. But not yesterday and the day before.
 From every part of the county, but especially in the mountains north and east of Phoenix. came reports to the weather bureau yesterday of heavy and continued showers. The report from the Bradshaws was brought by Cave Creek, which noti- fled Phoenix of weather conditions fin the hills by coming down in force and biting a chunk, or rather five chunks, out of the Arizona canal and then
 flooding the district between that canal and the Grand. The rain con- tinued e at intervals along Cave Creek yesterday afternoon, but did not fall in quantity enough to cause any trepidation on the part of farm CTS or others interested in that stream or it's habits.
 The rain at Roosevelt was steady and registered more than half an inch. This, with the rainfall in the Tonto basin, will mean another well come rise in the Roosevelt dam. &C., cording to officials of the Water Users association, especially in view of the fact that practically no water is now being taken from the dam be- cause of the high water in the Verde river, which will be sustained while by yesterdays rain.
 The weather office also had reports of good showers at Canyon. Wicken- burg and other parts of the county The Automobile Club of Arizona was | in receipt of information concerning rains in the northern part of the
 state, and will probably issue a spe- cial road bulletin for the benefit oi those who contemplate visiting Hopi- | land flor the snake dance at Walp next Thursday. The roads now are in rather poor shape because of hard rains during the past two or three weeks, and motorists may expect some trouble in getting to the reser- vations.

Strict Party Vote
 Posses Tax Bill
(Continued from Page One)

 Mondell Republican leader. delivered prepared address praising the tax bill and saying it remained for later congress to fully revise the tax schedule "when we shall have passed beyond the shadow of the war over- hanging"
 "In this measure we have relieved the burden where it is most clearly of an emergency character" he said, ''and relieved it and frightened it for the benefit of every class and condi- ton in the nation.
 "We have lifted rather than shifted the more oppressive and annoying of the war taxes. We have kept faith and while some will rail against the measure, for purely partisan pur- poses, 1t will receive the commenda- ton of the great body of the Ameri- can people"
 MT. Mondel1 was cheered from the Republican side. Representative Connally, Democrat of Texas, arose to ask tho Republican leader to show him the pledge in the Republican platform for the relieving of the taxes on men of large incomes: MT. Mondell tried to get recognition to answer but the house was in an uproar, which did not end until 3 l o'clock, when the way was cleared for voting under the rule. l Representative Cochran, Democrat of New York. rising to a point of privilege, offered a resolution con- demning President Harding for ad- dressing the senate July 12 on soldier
 bonus to the exclusion of the house The Democrats forced the first roll call on Representative Mondelrs mo- | ( . 1,1 which prevailed.
 The house adopted the committed amendment reducing the tax or

After binding and gagging him, he said. hls captors had released him on the desert wastes south of the mountains.
 Soon after h4s arrival at his East Washington street place of business at 6:45 o'clock Friday morning, Dent told officers, unknown parties called him on a telephone in an adjoining meat market.

 T told them yes and jumped into the car" he said.
 We proceeded south short dis tance when a man in the rear seat threw something over my head and tied it, dragging me into the ton neau of the car. Then my hands were tied behind my back and we continued in southerly direction.

John Burroughs

The death Of John Burroughs removes
from American life its best loved natural
list and one of its most prominent essay
lists and critics. It was the unconven-
tianal in writing and in nature that ap-
pealed to him ana gave his efforts a
style peculiar to him alone His literary
quality gained it's fascination from the
acuteness of observation rather than from
any elaboration of literary expression.
In 1904 he made his famous attack on
Ernest Seton Thompson and one or two
other naturalists, sharply crfticising
statements made by them IN their works
on nature, and referred to them as ina
ture fakers.''
Mr.. Burroughs was born at Roxbury.
N. T., April 3. 1897. Of a stock English on
his fathers side. and a strong dash Of
Irish on his mothers side. He spent his
early youth between study IN the country
school and In the field. He said Of him
self that his originality was fOstered by
growing up among people who neither
read books nor cared for them.
BEGAN WRITING
At THE AGE OF Il.
At the age Of a, he was writing es-
says. and at the age of 10 was a contrib
utor to the Atlantic Monthly At the
a place where the crust was pretty thin
to break through into the world" as he
put II. He first entered Ashland Semi
nary and In the year following. Coopers-
town Seminary. He then began teaching
school, devoting most Of mis- time to that
profession for the next eight or nine
years.
In 1858 Mr.. Burroughs was appointed
to the Treasury Department, first as
Keeper Of the vault and later as chief
OF an organization bureau In the divi-
sion Of national banks He left the de-
partment in 1913 and the same year acted
as receiver OF a broken bank in Middle
town, n. Y. 1t was also during that year
that he was appointed q special national
bank examiner, a position he held for ten
years.
In 1874 he purchased small farm at
Esopus, on the west bank Of the Hud-
son River, and has spent most Of his

REDISTRICTING
OF PRECINCTS
is SET FORTH
Ordinance to Be Submitted
Tonight Proposes Radical
Boundary Changes.

Radical changes in the precinct bound
aries are proposed. affecting the voting
places Of thousands Of citizens in at least
six and possibly more OF the hfteen
Indianapolis wards by the redictricting
ordinance to be submitted to the city
council at a special meeting tonight. The
ordinance. which will not be fully Pre-
pared until late today, will provide for
the changing of outlines OF practically
every voting district in the First, Second.
Fourth, Eighth, Ninth and Fifteenth
wards and perhaps others.
BY changes" 1t is meant that the
boundaries will be different from those
In effect at the election last fall. The
county commissioners have twice changed
the boundaries for county elections since
1917. So, in the redistricting ordinances
the city precinct boundaries are made to
conform in many instances to the pres.
ent county boundaries. In the description
Of the proposed new boundaries Nhich
follows precincts which have been merely
made to conform to the county lines are
described as being unchanged" for tEe
reason that so far as the voters are con-
cerned they are In the same precincts
they were IN last fall. For purposes Of
clarity the county precinct lines are made
the basis Of the nOtations OF 'changes'
in the descriptions which follow.
NINETEEN NEW
PRECINCTS PLANNED.
Nineteen new precincts viii be added
to the number Of county precincts now
situated inside the city limits. There
were 141 city precincts at the 1917 city
primary election and 154 county pre-
cincts last fall The ninteen new pre-
cincts added to the 154 county gives a
total of 1T3, the number of precincts
which the ordinance would outline.
Precincts would be increased as fol-
lows:
Three In the First ward, four in the
Second ward, one in the Third ward. two
in the Eighth ward two in the Tenth
ward and two In the Fifteenth ward.
There are prospects that the ordinance
will not go through the council tonight.
1t will be necessary to suspend the rules
to get passage on the night Of Its being
introduced. One dissenting vote kills a
motion to suspend and the four anti
administration couneilmen, G. G. Schmidt.
Louis W. Carnefx, Lee J. Kirsch and
William p. Peake, were understood to be
against fast action.
In general the city administration and
the hackers of Mr.. Thomas c. Howe, for
mer president of Butler College and
News-Jewett candidate for mayor, who
are responsible for the changes, claim
that they were made so as to have not
