TWO AUTOMOBILE
ACCIDENTS OCCUR
NEAR SAME SPOT
FRIDAY EVENING

Two automobile accidents occur
ring within few hundred yards Of
each other and within the same
hour between $3.50 and $3.50 o'clock
took place on the highway west of
Winslow near the small concrete
bridge about nine miles out, Friday
evening.
The first accident was caused by
broken knuckle which sent J. w.
Parrish and his car over four
foot embankment about 100 yards
west of the bridge. The car land
ed on all four wheels and then
lurched down the slope into the
mud and water that has been
standing along the side of the
grade at this place since the recent
rain. None of the occupants of the
car was injured and after the ma
chine was pulled from the mud it
was found that no serious damage
had been done to any part of the
car.
The second accident happened
when the inclosed Studebaker tour
ing car of G. B. Plaisse turned Oil
its side about two yards east Of
the bridge. Plaisse was driving
the machine and had turned out to
pass the Buick of Ira Tunnel that
was standing, it is said, with no
lights at the side of the road.
Plaisse did not see the car until
he was almost upon it, and in max
ing the quick turn, overturned the
car on it's side. Mrs. Plaisse, who
was in the car, was uninjured,
while Mr.. Plaisse received a severe
cut across one arm from a piece of
glass broken from the windshield.
In addition to the broken wind
shield. the car was damaged in
several places and the top was
badly broken and torn.

NORTHWESTERN STATES
ARE ROCKED BY QUAKES

Sections of four western states
representing the nations summer
playground, were harassed by
earthquakes for three hours late
Saturday evening. Panic resulted
in practically every city in West
ern Montana. Just north of Yel-
lowstone Park, at Three Forks,
Mont, three landslides were report
ed to have hemmed in as many
passenger trains loaded with vaca-
tionists.
Pavements and buildings were
cracked in many cities, a half
dozen buildings were reported to
have been demolished, an electric
railroad line was temporarily Grip
pied and there was recurrence
of the recent avalanche at Jackson,
Wyo., but nowhere was any loss of
life reported.

ing in Muster day will have the
personal satisfaction of knowing
that they have shown their willing
ness to aid their country if in
need; that they have answered the
call of the president of the United
States and assured him of their
loyalty and patriotism and with
the success of Muster day; that
they have individually played their
part in making all the countries
of the world look upon the United
States as a nation to promote
peace Whether we like it or not.
any modern war in which great
nations are opposed is no longer
a contest in which only armed
forces are involved. It is the di-
rect concern of every man, woman
and child in the belligerent coun-
tries and each must play his part
in war in accordance with national
needs. AS every individual is ulti-
mately concerned, it is only fair
and just to him and to the state
that he be fully advised of the
national plans for defense and the
part assigned to him therein. 1T
is also desirable that he understand
those plans when no war is in
prospect in order that he and his
fellows, who constitute the body
polite, may move in a prescribed
way toward their amendment if
deemed advisable.
There is probably no surer way
of enlisting a mans aid in main
tanning peace than to bring home
to him a realization of the fact that
war would involve him and his
family. This the Defense test, or
Muster day, will help to do

MANY KILLED
YESTERDAY IN
EARTHQUAKE
IN CALIFORNIA

Reports reached Winslow yester-
day afternoon that an earthquake
had completely demolished the city
OF Santa Barbara, Calf, with a
total of twenty-nine dead, more
than 100 injured and property loss
totaling from $1O,OOO,OOO to $25,-
100000.
About 5 o'clock last evening a
second quake rocked the city, and
it is reported to have been much
more severe than the first, which
occurred at 6:44 yesterday morning.
Telegraph and telephone wires
are down in the country surround
ing Santa Barbara, and reports,
which are meagre at best, come
from refugees who have fled the
city. Linemen are working des-
perately to restore the broken
communications.
The Albuquerque Morning Jour
nal, the first paper to reach Wins
low with news of the disaster, gave
the number of dead at twelve and
the property loss estimated all the
way from $S,000,000 to $4,000 900.
Reports from trainmen coming in
on Nos. and 4 this morning state
that the casualties run much high
er, and the Journal asserts that
the death toll may be much high
er, as many bodies are believed to
be in the ruins.
State street, the main thorough
fare, is a CHASTITY avenue of ruin,
portions of it's most stately build
ings being tumlbed down, and cor
nices, walls and fronts of practi-
cally all principal structures shat
tered down.
The earthquakes continued
throughout the day. They menaced
the water supply by crashing out
the dam of Sheffield water reser-
voir, but bypass has been estab-
lished to a main reservoir back in
the hills and water provided for
the city.
The terror r-stricken 10000 inhab-
itants in most cases settled down
to an emergency by noon, many Of
them living on the lawns.
81 have been through fifty earth
quakes, but never one like this be-
FORE" said Manager Richmond of
the Arlington hotel. "It just took
the hotel that we considered strong
as a fortress and shook it back and
forth as if it were a rag.
"It was precisely as if one were
of coo in q Storm Ono would not
believe it were possible for a build
ing to move with such force in so
many directions and apparently so
Imply as did the Arlington.
''The hotel is a total loss"
Other stories of the motion Of
the earthquake were similar.
Along the main thoroughfare,
State street, there were many auto
mobiles and trucks which had been
parked at the curb and which were
almost buried under the debris.
The finest building in town, the
San Marcos, big four-story first
class structure, built as an L on
corner, had it's whole corner CEN
ter pushed into the debris.
Plans for the rebuilding Of the
devastated residential and business
sections Of the city are already
under way. William G. McAdoo, of
Los Angeles, who owns one of the
finest residences in the city, led
number of financiers in arranging
with the chamber of commerce for
funds.

Free Speech Is Issue in :;
Mitchell Court Martial.

nOES an American citizen for.
- felt his constitutional right of
free speech when he becomes
an officer in the army?
This question, raised by the court
martial proceedings now in progress
at Washington against Col. William
fB. Mitchell, bids fair to be settled
definitely. one way or another, by
the time the trial ends.
Col. Mitchell, the fiery, outsSoken
critic of the governments aviation
lpolicies, knew that ne would be ar
rested and tried when he issued ms
blast against his superior officers.
He risked it because Of his desire
to arouse the people OF the coun-
TRY to what he 1elie"ed was a grave
weakness in the national defense.
An officers right to free speech
was a secondary consideration 10
him. Not that it did not interest
him, for it did, greatly; but first and
Foremost he wanted to get some sort
iof action on 'aNlatlon.
But to one who has no AK 10 grind
tin connection with the air policy
this secondary point is fully as IN
'teresting as the first.
For years army officers have inti'
mated privately that they dared not
speak their minds. An officer who
voiced his opinion on any current
issue without first submitting his
views to his superiors for censorship,
jthey asserted, would he sG"elched
promptly and quietly.
Admiral Sims tried it once, N the
navy, when he was young oi'icer'
He criticized the navy's gunrery sys'
kem loudly and without reserve. Inc
'navy's leaders prepared TO st or
him.
But President Roosevelt had a btt'
ter idea. He put Sims in charge OF
igunnery and told him TO try out ms
ideas. If they worked. well ana
good; if they didn't-well' 1t wou'o

tlon of Abraham to Palestine and of
the lsraelites to the Promised Land oc-
CURED thousands Of years after man
appeared In Europe. This statement
was based ON n recent discovery Of a
skull in Galilec, Palestine, by Turvil
Petre, a former pupil of Lord Balfour
and was made by Sir Arthur Keith,
authority ON the origin of man, before
the meeting Of the British Association
for the Advancement of Science, at
Southampton.
This discovery will always rank
among the important events of history.
1t is particularly important" Sir Ar
thur declared, because of the place
where II was found. Our boyish lmng.
nations have always placed the arrival
ot Abraham In Palestine and of the
lsraelites into the Promised Land as
events which mark the beginning Of
history In The light Of this discovery
all of these Biblical records become
happenings OF recent days.
In this cave on the shore of the
Lake of Galilee have been laid bare
the records of people who lived in
Palestine 10000 years or more before
Abraham and his household made their
treck eastward. The type Of humanity
and the Kind Of implements fashioned
by humanity in stone aud in bone
which were discovered in this Galllcan
cave are similar to those in the caves
of France during the Mousterian period
tthe epoch characterized by a climate
similar TO that Of Finland and North
ern Sweden, the existence Of large nam
mails and the use by men of stone I'M
plamcnts). 1t is possible, but by nc
means proven that Europeans in mod
ern times led the world in thought and
decd Sir Arthur continued. The pres
cnt discovery makes il certain that the
kind of man who lived in Palestine at
n very remote period WAS the same
type and lived in the same way as til,
type of man In Europe.
This Galilean skull belongs TO d
species or type of mankind which Is
entirely different in structure from al
living races of mankind. In fact, it /,
another breed of Neanderthal mani
man with a narrow, high head and flat
chcekbones like u chenec or monkey
but he was not our actual ancestor
but he was not our actual ancestor
Yet he was Il man. 1t Is Il profound
mistake to look upon the Neandcrtha
man as an nnc, hardly deserving III.
name of humanity. Certainly his col
lective features were more like tn,
ape than man as man now lives, bui
he has Il brain which, in point of sizt
| if not in organization, reached modcri
| standards at least.
1T was this particular type of mar
that occupied Europe and Palestine il
recent times and probably spread int,
the north of Africa. This Galillcar
man had enormous eyebrows wider
than his forehead and fiat cheeks. A.
far as concerned size, his brain ha,
| reached the average held for most OF
| the living races Of mankind. The con
volutionS of this mans brain, although
| relatively simple. are in no sense ape
like This brain is entirely human
