Use of Word PARTY"
Out on Telephones

Local telephone operators have bid
farewell to the word party" as used
with telephone numbers having a."
M, " "R" or "W" appendages, and tele-
phone users are asked to follow the
operators example in dropping the
word.
Now when you want a party line
number simply say, zone, two, three,
W." or whatever it is.
Omitting this word saves a great
deal of time in completing telephone
calls, and that counts in the days long
run, for it enables you to get your
party" quicker. Don't say, "Give me
PA party r." say, "Give me PA r."
That's all. Central will ask, "214 R?'
And you will say, "Yes. please" and
get the number that way.

A DEATH TRAP.

"Now that one Of our citizens has
been killed, and another nearly killed
by leaping from the spring board al
Luxapila Beach, it seems to me that
wisdom would prompt the removal Of
the board; either that or sign SHOULD
be placed near the board warning
people of the danger Of using it, said
prominent citizen of Columbus yes
terday."
A few weeks ago Mr.. Emmett
Mahon leaped from the spring board
into the shallow water. His head
struck the bottom and he received in
juries from which he died in a short
time. Last Saturday, Mr.. Carey
Cooke leaped from the same board,
and was serevely injured, though not
fatally. Mr.. Cooke is steadily re-
covering from his injuries.
Many Of our people are wondering
why the spring board should be al
lowed to remain where it is, inasmueh
as it might tempt others to leap into
the water and be killed.

dead. Inside his coat was the name
Commander Manifold" Early reports
were to the effect that Lieut. Ester.
~ had been saved. unhappily, this
report proved later to be without
foundation
One member Of the rescuing party
said That when they got alongside
the turning airship tie pilot Of the
tug asked for volunteers TO BOARD one
part that still was almost intact.
Jumping upon the wreekage, the res
cuerers ripped open part Of the fabric,
while parts Of the debris were pulled
away by means Of ropes. The task
was hazardous one, because one of
the balIoonettes was still filled with
gas and another explosion feared.
American Hangs to Girder.
In the wreckage an American naval
man was to be seen hanging by his
coat to girder in the frame Of the
airship. II was believed he was dead,
owing to the peculiar position Of the
body, which was not recovered. An
other rescuer said one was hanging
onto the tail of the ship, apparently
uninjured while another was found
floating in the water. Both Of them
were saved.

Washington Mourns.

Washington, Aug. 24.-Expressions
of deep regret were voiced by gov

DISASTER IN AIR
SHOCKS COUNTRY


dfome at the time of the disaster
which constitutes the most terrible Of
AS kind in peace times.
While flying about 1000 feet over
Huh spectators saw the ZR-2 seem
ingly buckle amidships and plunge
downward over the city and into the
Humber River One theory Of the
canse Of the disaster is that while the
ships rudders were being tested the
giant craft took sharp turn, which
caused her framework TO buckle, and
that the explosion Of a gasoline tank
completed the tragedy Of the air. The
actual cause, however, never may be
Known A rumor had been afloat for
some days that the ZR-2 was struc-
turally weak, but this was stoutly
denied by all in authority.
Thousands See Disaster.
Tens of thousands of spectators
saw several men climb outside the
balloon and drop from the falling
mass, which was enveloped in smoke,
and others jump into the Humber as
the crippled craft came over the wa
Ter. AS the diaigible struck the
wreckage above water it was burning
and there was slight chance for any
Of the men caught inside to escape.
Tugs Immediately put out into the
stream and brought ashore the five
Survivors, who were taken in ambu-
lances to hospitals. Among these were
the American quartermaster, N. O.
Walker, who died soon after reaching
the hospital from burns he had re-
ceived. Lieut.. Little also was rescued
from the debris alive, but succumbed
to his injuries on reaching the in
Urinary. A rescue tug pulled another
American out of the water. He was

ut is a terrible thing" was the
comment of Secretary DENLY as he
received cabled dispatches giving the
details Of the catastrophe.
Mr.. DENLY immediately forwarded
To the British air minister a message
expressing the sympathy Of the Navy
Department.
"The Navy Department Of the I'M
tied States extends to the air ministry
and the British navy deepest sympa-
thy in the appalling disaster to the
IRE" the message said.
1--WE hope our early reports will
prove exaggerated as to loss ~ life"
Far from being discouraged by the
disaster, naval aviation officials i'm
mediately prepared to seek authority
for construction Of a new ship Of the
ZR-2 type in the United States.
I'VE will carry on; build and oper-
ate as many ZR-2's as may be au-
thofized by Congress- Admiral Viii
liam A. Moffet, chief Of the Naval
Bureau of Aeronautics, said tonight,
so that these brave men may not
have their lives lost IN vain"
Other aviation officers, while
greatly distressed, declared they had
rot lost faith in rigid airships. They
pointed out that Germany had built
md successfully operated 140 ships Of
similar design, many of only slightly
ess carrying capacity, while English !
constructors had turned out 16.

the pitcher was bought in the good
old days when good stuff could be
bought for $3.50 a gallon. We sup

Wild Oats" would be the play given on
March 7th, at the Shubert Theatre,
for the benefit Of the South Side

wise be unable to see the play. 1t is
suggested that those wishing to buy
tickets should get them now, as the
house is being rapidly sold out.

PHILADELPHIA GROUP
WILL DRILL FOR OIL
ON S0C0RR0 LOCATION

Colonel Charles p. O'Connor, Of
Philadelphia, recently concluded a
deal by the terms of which he will
drill the Red Lake structure, in
Socorro county.
Colonel OConnor was attracted
by the report of Dean Winchester,
for the United States geological
survey in bulletin 617-A, who states
that reservoir sands OF excellent
quality and rather exceptional con-
tinuity are present in the Miguel
formation, and at least two I'M
named but persistent sandstones in
the lower part of the formation fur
niEh beds almost unIlvalled as
sands in which oil may accumulate,
and that a we'll drilled 1000 feet
deep will test the Cow Spring anti
cline and a well 5000 feet deep
will test the Red Lake structure.
Colonel O'Connor has made APP
plication for an oil and gas permit,
covering all the government land
on the top of the structure and will
start drilling with standard rig
with drilling capacity of 1000
feet or more.
1t is estimated that the cost Of
drilling the first two wells will be
not less than 100000.

urged every member to assist the
officers in carrying out the vigor-
Gus campaign of work that is now
outlined for the coming months.
1t is thought that the proposed
program will aid the town and
surrounding country in a material
way that should not be overlooked
by any citizen of this section of the
valley.
Rev. Moon, of the Hope Cham
Der of Commerce, and Representa-
tive Hartell made reports concern
ing the interview of the commit
tee, composed of Hope and Arte-
STA business men, with state Off
GERS at Santa Fe, In regard to the
proposed irrigation project near
Hope Mr.. Hartell also made a re-
port regarding the freight rates on
carload lots of alfalfa and fruit.
It is estimated that 1000 cars of
alfalfa and 800 cars of apples will
be shipped from the local station
this year.
The main highways and automo-
bile roads, leading into town have
been damaged to great extent by
the heavy rains Of the past week,
and are almost impossible in some
places. A committee, composed of
Mark Corbin, r. A. Hannah and
w. r. Atkinson was appointed to
confer with the county and state
road officials in regard to improve
ments on these roads.
