Automobile Thieves Are Captured In Oklahoma

The two auto bandits who held up ''Bill'' Jordan, of Clifton and Silver City, last week in the vicinity Of Mutt Station, in Grant County, New Mexico have been Captured in Okla homa, after desperate fight with the sheriff at Purcell, Oklahoma.
 Sheriff Casey of Silver City, re, ceived a telegram Tuesday morning from Purcell. Okla, saying that B. D. Childs, auto thief, wounded in resist ing arrest, is dying. The other fugi- tive, w Nj. Birchfield, will fight ex- tradition, the wire said He is wanted in Chiclasha, on a felony charge
 The crime was one of the boldest of it's kind ever committed in this part of the state. The two men Birchfeld and Childs, alias Thompson walked up to the Broadway auto stand late Monday night and asked Jordan if he would drive them to Hurley. He said he would, and the men got into Jordan's car, one in front with him and the other in the rear seat.
 Jordan drove over the Ridge road and, when approaching the turmoil to Hurley. Birchfield, in the rear seat, leaned over and pressing the muzzle of a siX-shooter at Jordans head, calmly commanded him to keep on going, saying they were making a getaway"
 Stopped at Mutt.
 Fully realizing that he was at the mercy of two desperate men, Jordan with apparent good nature acquiesced without d word and kept on going. The men conversed with Jor- dan as the car hummed along. Alp. preaching Deming, the men told Jor- dan to drive around the town, taking the road via Mutt station.
 Arriving at Mutt, about a. m., the men told Jordan to drive inside the stockyards and stop. Not until he reached Mutt did he learn they in- tended to steal his car He had thought they only wanted him to drive them to Fl Paso or to the Mexi can border. However. during the brief stop at Mutt. the men informed Jordan they were going to put him out and take his car. After a brief barley. during which Jordan showed them how to shift gears and handle the car, they asked him how much money he had. '.Only a few dollars. '' Jordan replied. We'll, said Childs we're broke, so shell out Jordan demurred. telling them they had got about enough in taking his brand new car. Are you going to hand over your money, or must we take it 9" was the next query from the high jackers You'll sure have to take it." declared Jordan. The subject changed here and, meantime, the men apparently forgot about the money and made

have been made in the elementary schools, with the exception Of the Kindergarten department. Patrons O. Clifton will be glad to know that this deparment will be maintained and that two talented young woman taken from Miss Barnard's training schoo4 in Berkeley have been selected. Miss Della Langin will conduct the kinder garten at the South Clifton building and Miss Carmelita Murray will divide her time between the Chase Creek and North Clifton buildings.
 Miss Dawson made an enviable re cord in the Junior High School last year and consequently fias earned the promotion to the position above stated in the Senior High School.
 MT. Baker having personally inter. viewed the above teachers feels con fdent that this years faculty will be an exceptionally good one and that the Clifton High School will be able to hold it's high record of attainment regardless of the industrial condi- tiOnS.
 A full list of the teachers for next year will be published as soon as it is completed.

A. C. Co. Stockholders Will
 Hold Meeting In August

As q result of stockholders meet ing of The Arizona Copper Go. Ltd. to he held in Edinburgh, Scotland, at the home office or the company some time in August, a definite conclusion will be reached as to the negotiations that have been underway between officials of the Phelps Dodge Corpora ton and The Arizona Copper Co. Ltd, for the sale of the mining property of the latter company in this district to the New York Corporation.
 In local circles there still exists a strong undercurrent that majority of the stockholders of The Arizona
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1921-07-29

Copper Co. Ltd, will ratify the action of their officials.
 It was rumored in Clifton the latter part of the week that the stockholders meeting was to be held in Edinburgh the first week in August but this rumor was denied y an A. C. Co. off cial The stockholders meeting in Edinburgh will be a special meeting called under the bylaws of the com pany in conformity with British laws. For this purpose the post office ad- dress of foreign resident stockholders is presumed to be the home office of the company in Edinburgh.
 tt became known this week that on August 1st the electrical power and light at present being furnished by. the power house of The A. c. Go. Ltd. at the new smelter in Clifton, will be discontinued and the entire district will be furnished by the Phelps Dodge power house at Moren- ci, N G. Hardy, mechanical engineer is experimenting the transfer of the power lines between the two com panies this week. Mack Saunders. power house engineer for the Phelps Dodge Co.,, Morenci branch, returned this week from Bisbee, and will re- Sume HIS Olu pOSlIlOu hOu MCDou gall, master mechanic at Morenci, also returned this week from Nacozari to superintendent the resumption of op- erations at the power plant. It is stated that this change has been ord cred for the reason that the P. D. power house, with it's equipment of Diesel engines. can furnish power and light to the district at less cost than the A. c. Go. Ltd. power plant in Clifton.
 This transfer of electrical power and light service from the A. c. Co. to , Phelps Dodge company will close the power plant at the A. c. shelter which will further reduce the number of employees. Only few men will be reta ned there on repair work and as watcE12en.
 The merging of the electric power -ervica for the entire district in the hands Of Phelps Dodge is pointed to as an example of the close working relationship existing between the two companies at present.

WAGE ACTIVE WAR ON RATS
New Workers Place Their Faith In
Ferrets as the Best Means Of
Fighting Pests.


Rats are a menace and present a
problem in many big cities. Water
trent workers are familiar with the
big metal tenders placed on moor
ing ropes to keep the disease bearing
rodents aboard ships. A New York
engineer now has a scheme for in
closing that city with a wall to pre-
vent the Objectionable animal immi-
grants from entering the city.
Plague dangers from Asiatic rodents
have aroused the interest Of seaport
cites. In several stores the rats
have to be kept under control. as
they destroy merchandise. In this
work the most efficient mean to
fight the rats is said to be a ferret.
These little animals are natural enc
mics Of rats and kill them without
mercy. In some stores ferrets are

ONLY WOMAN BYRON LOVED
Good Evidence That Mary chawcrth
Made Deepest impression on the
Heart Of Great Feet

Many beautiful women came into
the life Of George Noel Gordon
(Lord Byron), and included Mary
Chaworth. For Lady Caroline Lamb
and Lady Oxford, for Anna Isabella
Milbanke, whom he married; for
Jane Clairmont and the Countess
Guiecolo, for the draper's wife and
the bakers wife at Venice, and for
many Others who might be men,
toned, Byron felt varying degrees
OF passion, affection or respect for
varying periods Of time. But it is
safe to say that Mary Chaworth was
the only woman whom he ever loved.
She married, and the young poet
plunged into despair. They met
again, at a time when Mary Cha
worth had been driven to separa-
ton from her husband because Of
his u%nfounded jealousy, u~nfaithful-
ness and brutality; at a time when
was nc longer a clumsy
sehoolboy, hut a world-famous man.
the youth and the beauty of a
god. There is a curious reti-
cence in Byron's OWL words that
leads n to conjecture that they
met and loved, that Mary Chaworth
rePentcd and refused to see Byron
again, and that this repentance
iroVe him to his marriage, doomed
from the very outset, and TO the
'ynieism that tinged Sc deeply his
alter life.
