DEALERS SELL
SAME ice FOR
TWO FIGURES
Commissioners Linblad Finds That
East Moline and Moline Article
Is From Same Place.

Ice that sells in East Moline at
$3.50 and in Moline for $3.50 comes
out of the same ice house, according
TO Levin Lindblad, Moline, commits
sioner of weights.
Mr. Lindblad stated that driver
for an ice company furnished him
with the information. The ice cost
ing $3.50 was for Moline while the
cheaper ice was to be sold in East
Moline. The commissioner stated
that the ice was of the same quail
ity.
A city automobile IS being equip
ped with scales and will be at the
service of the Moline consumers
who believe that they are receiving
short weight.
The examination of scales was
finished yesterday. Mr.. Lindblad
stated that he found a number of
scales that were weighing incor-
rectly. All legitimate complaints
of incorrect weights will lead to ar
rests, said the official.
The commissioner stated that lots
of times the men and not the
scales are responsible for short
weight.
Il was testing 2 scale yesterday"
he said, when | saw one man
throw a piece of ice on the scales,
give hasty look and carry it in the
house. l asked him how much the
piece weighed. He said so pounds.
at didn't look right to me- l had
the ice put back on the scales. 1t
only weighed 40 pounds. The scales
were right"

Moline and East Moline
WILL DECIDE
WHO OWNS SUM
Ownership Of siss.As, Claimed By
Both Lady Eagles No. 1 and No.
ii to Be Determined.

Who owns the s13T.42 claimed by
both Ladies of Eagles No. 1 and
Lady Eagles No. IA? Tomorrow
may see some action in the Moline
city court as to the ownership of
this sum.
The case came up last April when
the. officials of the Peoples bank,
where the money is deposited, asked
the court to decide who owns the
money. On the same day an injunc-
ton was issued preventing either
organization from bringing suit
against the bank.
There has been no action since
that time. Lately Attorney w. r.
Moore, representing Lady Eagles
No. IA, demanded that the case he
settled Judge Dietz has notified
attorneys that he will hold a hear
ing tomorrow morning in connec-
ton with some legal technicalities
of the case.
The case grew out of a factional
hight in the organization, which was
known as the auxiliary to the Mo-
line aerie of Eagles. Members of
the aerie, it is understood, are TAX
ing no part in the quarrel.

~ Rankin, w. F. Swift, T. Her

1NdIIklIlS W. l. OWl1C, 11Cl-
berton, and the writer, w. D.
Sayle, bound for the Rainbow Arch
located on the northern slope of the
Navajo Mountain near the southern
boundary of Utah and in order to
take advantage of the opportunity af-
forded we decided to make several
side trips, taking in as much of the
great Arizona district as it was posi-
bic in the time allotted for our trip.
After corresponding with the De-
partment of the Interior, National
Park Service, Washington, D. c.,
and receiving very valuable informa-
ton and suggestions, our itinerary
was decided upon and after further
correspondence, all Accommodations
were arranged, automobiles, guides
and pack train engaged.
We left Cleveland on what proved
to be one of the greatest sight seeing
trips that any of our party had ever
undertaken. We arrived in Chicago
in time to make connections with the
California Limited via the Santa Fe.
From Kansas City to Lamy, N. NJ,
much of the way is over the old Santa
Fe Trail with its picturesque scenery
and historic points of interest reminis-
cent of the days when Indian fighting
and buffalo hunting were the princi-
pal out-of-door sports.
We arrived at Adamana, N. NJ,
and after selecting our Accommodations
for the night, prepared for a trip
through the Petrifed Forests to be
taken on the following day.
1t is we'll to state that the town of
Adamana was founded and named
after Adam Hanna, an old time pio-
neer of the region, who used to take
tourists in the early days to see the
wonders near his ranch. When the
Santa Fe decided to put a station at
this point, a contraction of the name
of the old pioneer was suggested and
the name Adamana decided upon
which is not only suggestive of the
old pioneer and his good wife Anna
but also suggestive of the hardness of
the wonders to be viewed.
The old pioneer has long since
passed away and now Mr.. and Mrs.
VIM. Nelson own the ranch and look
after the interests of the visitor, Mr..
Nelson being the Government Cuto-
dian of the Forest and his wife, de-
lightful example of feminine vivacity
and resourcefulness, looks after the
hotel and in friendly and pleasing
way, suggests trips or other pleasures
for the guests.
We Immediately adopted her sug-
gestions and after a good nights rest
started out on ten mile trip to view
the Painted Desert before breakfast,
just as the rising sun was dispelling
the shadows and painting the hills in
the beautiful tints of the rainbow.
After a satisfying breakfast, we
started out for a view of what is
known as the first and second forests.
The drive of about five miles across
the dry bed of the Rio Puerco and
then over an undulating plain with
rugged cliffs to be seen everywhere
showing many forms of freak erosion.
When the region of the trees is
reached, you see hundreds of logs ly-

flowing apparently peacefully below.
We soon reach Hermit's Rest and
after partaking of the refreshments
offered we proceed on our way afoot
to the corral where our steeds with all
the necessary trapping are ready for
our trip below. Our guides allotting
us animals according to our weight,
we are soon mounted and with the
guide in advance, we follow in single
file behind. Descending at an easy
grade, we have no inkling of the
thrills awaiting below.
l am riding big mule by the name
of Mandy, and l wish to state that
Mandy was some mule. When she
started down the first real descent l
tried to rest my feet on her ears and
my shoulders on her tail. Good old
patient Mandy, as she came to the
pivot point, she would group her
hoofs with her head hanging way over
the precipice-how often | wished
that she were standing in her natural
position with her forelegs under her
head. Then she would slowly pivot
about and start down the next step
of the stairs, zigzagging on her way
to the bottom and | wig-wagging as
l earnestly tried to be composed and
yet retain my seat and not beat
Mandy in the descent.
Lunch for the riders and water for
the animals at the spring and rest
house half way down and then we are
on and off again, repeating the thrills
down Cathedral stairs and many other
apparently hazardous places where an
elevator ought to be installed.
What wonderful relief to reach
the Hermit Camp Cottages $500
feet below the rim for there my feet
rested firmly on terra frma and |
could look about, below and above.
What wonderful vistas of rocks, they
impressed me wonderfully as ! looked
up at them but when Mandy was do
ing her pivoting stunt, they did look
just devilish, those smiling, beckoning
rocks below.
After a good dinner we again
mount for the trip to the muddy
Colorado down through Hermit Can
yon. A beautiful sight that great
surging, muddy flood, grinding deeper
into the granite, as it tumbles its tor
tuous way to the sea.
The sun was low and the shadows
were gathering while 5000 feet
above, the sun was shining on the
peaks bringing the colors out boldly,
beautiful are the "Tukimeavats" spots
on which the sun shines longest.
After a good nights rest and an
early breakfast we are off again for
a full day ride of "a miles along the
Tonto Trail which winds along the
reasonably level plateau. We have
ample opportunity to view the Can
yon and the river below.
We were much amused to sec our
guide go after the wild burrows many
of which were about. He finally sue
ceeded in lassoing one and received
the reward offered for the feat.
We reach the Indian Garden soon
after noon and partake of the lunch
which we carried. This delightful
spot was occupied and cultivated by
Indians at one time but they were
killed or driven off as resting place
for the tourists. There page 4. ool y

A TRIP THROUGH THE ARIZONA DESERT
By Mr.. W. D. Sayle, in Craneing

ing about, some of them fully exposed
resting on supports, others lying full
length on the weathered slopes while
Others show only partly, waiting for
the elements to expose their beauties
to the visitor a thousand years from
now.
Many of the petrifed logs take the
form of natural bridges, the eroding
process having carried away the envel-
oping material from part of their
length leaving the logs exposed and
supported at both ends. The most
beautiful example of this is known as
the Petrifed Bridge which consists of
a large petrified tree trunk lying
across a canyon forming a foot bridge
across which one may pass. This log
is 10 feet in length and 4 feet india
meter at its base.
There are great many varieties of
>petrifcation, in one place dark somber
colors prevail-in another, rich reds,
purple and blues Sin another, the
colors are of the brightest ,hues imag-
Unable. One example showed the
bark of rich red color while the in
terror was pure white interspersed
with spots and streaks of blue and
purple. In many specimens, high
colors were absent and the color was
so delicate and the wood structure so
perfect that a visitor would think he
was seeing real wood instead of stone.
AS birds used the trees millions of
years ago, so are they using them to-
day, as evidenced by the fact that we
found birds nest in a cavity of one
of the large petrifed logs.
In the afternoon, we visited what
is locally called the Blue Forest be-
cause blue predominates everywhere.
Driving over the trackless desert and
up into the bad lands, we leave our
conveyance and climb the weathered
slopes and washes up to the mesa top
and there wind blowed we gaze upon
the wonders about, blue, gray, yellow,
blue predominating, even the interior
of the petrifed logs favor blue.
Here we wandered over the slopes
picking up petrifed teeth of an un-
known prehistoric amphibious animal
or fish, even digging out and exposing
the skeleton, the vertebrae being
usually intact.
Standing upon a high point, we
gaze over the bad lands and see in the
distance corral enclosed by high
stone fence most of which was nat
nral. The natural corral was used,
so we were informed, in the old days
as an assembly and branding point
by the cow rustlers of that period
when possession was law and brands
were easily changed.
In one corner, the fire place where
the branding irons were heated, could
be plainly seen.
1t is estimated by scientists that the
trees now petrifed grew many million
of years ago and after death passed
through many ages of subsidences and
uplifts, the wood molecule gradually
disappearing and its place being taken
by the brilliantly colored material
which we now see. During the sub
The mirror., 1921-08-25

sidences it is estimated that many
thousand feet in thickness of sedimen-
tary material was deposited above the
sunken trees.
The final uplift left the trees 5000
feet above the sea with probably l0,-
600 feet of sedimentary rock above
holding them with the pressure of
tons which is only relieved after mil
lions of years of erosion has worn and
washed away this enveloping mantle.
But why talk of the millions of
years? Suffice, is it not, to know the
trees are there now, exposed in all the
beauties of jewels, the work of nature
where time is everlasting.
Twenty-Five thousand six hundred
and twenty-five acres, with many hun
dred thousand tons of Chalcedony,
Opals, Agates, Jasper and Onyx, a
monument to the Immortality of time,
and we now find them not as one Ari-
zonian was won't to tell, "A forest
of petrifed trees, with petrifed birds
flying through petrifed air, singing
petrifed songs" but lying PROSTATE,
unmurmuring, the trees, the birds,
the air, the songs, immortalized in
Agate.
Our next objective was the Grand
Canyon of Colorado. Immediate ar
rangements were made for two day
horse trip down into the Canyon.
We first viewed the Canyon from
the lookout at the Ell Tovar Hotel
looking across IS miles of temples,
churches, towers, obelisks and pyra-
mids, Turn either way and gaze on
20 or 25 miles more of terraces, crests,
castles and buttes, all banded with
beautiful colors on which the sunlight
plays, making it sight never to be
forgotten, while 1900 feet, above all
of this riot of color, we see the Kaibab
Plateau with its green fringe or vir-
gin forest trees.
Cast your eyes down, bend over the
stone wall, look almost straight down
and see the little specks crawling along
the trail over $500 feet, below and
you see the tourists who started out
three hours ago descending the Bright
Angel Trail to the Granite wall OF
the river from which point they may
view the flood laundering 1900 feet
below.
The view is indescribable. People
come to the rim, look and then walk
away quite overcome by its grandeur,
others close their eyes in amazement.
No one expresses an opinion, all the
subdued, overpowered by the grand
spectacle before them. Every change
in position, every Aeeting moment
gives new views and changes in colors.
Having donned riding togs in
preparation for our two days in the
Canyon, we first give them an eight
mile automobile ride along the rim
stopping to view the Powell Monu-
ment on Sentinel Point, which was
erected by the Government as
memorial to Major John w. Powell,
through the Canyon. Hopi, Mojave
and Pima Points permit excellent
views of the Canyon and at times you
may see the small ribbon of water
