MRS. ROSE THOMAS,
DIES ON SATURDAY \
Continued from Page One)

This ranch not long ago was sold to
James A. Lamport and was the
scene of the filming of Zane Grey's
story, "The Call of the Canyon"
AS was written of Mr.. Thomas last
summer, following his death: "Even a
greater story of human life could have
been written by Mr.. Grey had he been
able to delve into the lives of Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas in this most beautiful
spot in the whole north, where a great
home was built by loving hands with
loving hearts. A home which was
made to shelter many orphan children
whom others had ignored. Neither
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas could ever
know how widespread was the influ.
ence of their modest, unassuming lives
for the good of those who had the
privilege of coming into their circle Of
friendship"
1t is known that at least six orphan
children were taken into this home by
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas, and fed, clothed
reared and given the example of pa
tient industry, kindly generosity and
integrity. Among them were Harry
Carter of Flagstaff, Mrs. Bessie Mil
Ter Of Taft, Calf, who was here for
the funeral: Mrs. Nellie Bean of Flag
staff and Victor Thomas.
The dear old lady, who worked and
planned with her husband more for
the good and comfort of others than
for any material gain to them elves,
now rests beside him, secure with him
in the inheritance of that eternal re-
ward that comes to those who give
freely of their lives and their sub
stance to relieve others.

During his business career here he
staked many an unfortunate to a

range at Winona was one of the best
equipped in this part of the country.
He was very fond Of good horses and
usually had entries in the races at the
state fair. In his sheep business he
carefully bred for good stock and to
produce high grades Of both mutton
and wool.

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
MARKET REPORT
. s%%%]%%]%%%%%+%%+ =

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Feb. 49,
Light receipts of cattle today, which
the trade interpreted as the beginning
of period of light runs, send prices
up 25 10 35 cents. The trade lost all
of the dullness which was so pro-
nounced last week Both killers and
order buyers were in the competition
early. Hog prices rose 10 cents COM
pared with last weeks close and were
nearly up to the extreme high point
Of the season reached last Tuesday.
The sheep market had a halting tone
at lower prices. Receipts were not
heavy. Indications are that runs will
be fairly liberal for awhile.
Beef Cattle
Trade in fat cattle was well under
way within an hour after the opening
whistle and prices ruled higher. In
most cases classes suitable for kill
ing purposes We're up 25 to 35 cents,
and exceptions as much as 80 cents.
The general activity was in sharp con-
trast with the dullness that prevailed
last week. If the decreased run to-
day is the beginning of a period of
light receipts which so many have ex-
pected, there will be further sharp
advance in prices; Quality of the Of
ferings remained plain. The best
steers here, medium and strong
weights, sold at 1915 to $10.25, and
choice yearlings up to S11.3o. Cows
and heifers were Is to rs cents higher,
and in active demand. Veal calves
were stronger, top $11. Bulls were
10 to Is cents higher.
StOckers and Feeders
Trade in stock and feeding cattle
was active, but limited by moderate
receipts. Prices ruled strong to Is
cents higher. Only few big lunches
Of southwest stockers were available.
Killers bought a good many steers
that should have gone out as feshy
feeders.
Sheep and Lambs
With liberal runs of sheep in Chi
cago and upriver markets, prices took
another sharp drop. Indication that
western fed sheep will move freely in
the next 30 days was as much of
factor in the decline as actual re-.
ceipts. Here prices were down 25 to-
so cents. Fat lambs are quoted at
$16.50 to $17.40; yearlings S14 to $14.-
so; ewes 1915 to 1925, and wethers
1915 to $1,000.

ton from the asylum, prison and in

and for the interchange with other

Lines bill, providing for additional
appropriation to cover the transpor-
tation of pupils in consolidated school
districts was also approved following
the explanation by the author that the
measure would tend to decrease rather
than increase taxes.
The house passed on final reading
Ia bill providing for the return of non
resident and alien inmates of the state
asylum hospital for the insane, the
state prison and reformatory to the
state or county of which they are citi-
zens.
A resolution asking for state ap
preparation of 100000 to be used by
the governor in making a thorough
survey of the benefits to be derived by
Arizona from the development of the
resources of the Colorado river was
introduced in the senate Wednesday
by Golfer of Apache and Donnelly of
Pima. The resolution stipulates that,
after study of the river has been
made, the governor would be author
lied to appoint committee to confer
with similar committees from Cali
fornia and Nevada in regard to the
distributions, of the waters right and
hydro-eiectric power.
The resolution utterly condemns
the compact drafted at Santa Fe, N
NJ, in 1922 and says it forever will
prevent the development Of that por
ton Of Arizona contingent to the
river. 1t also declares that a supple
mental agreement of the three lower
basin states could not cure "the fatal
defects" Of the river pact The lower
basin states, the resolution asserts,
financially ale able now to proceed
with the development of the river in
accordance With their needs, but it
adds that an investigation Of the re-
sources the expenditure of 100000
would permit might show a joint eff
fort in developing the stream in unit
structures Chat might be most de-
sirable."
The resolution declares that hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars have
been 81 Mt by other interested states,
municipalities and private interests III
surveying the river, "in shameful
contrast to the pitiful efforts of Ari-
zona to date" 1t contends that Ari-
zona should have more information III
regard to the Colorado than any other
state because it has more at stake.
An orderly program for the con-
sideration of the various bills and
resolutions dealing with the Colorado
river compact was adopted by the SEN
ate Wednesday. The program, which
was adopted as a special rule, groups
different proposals, provides which
may be considered first and limits the
debate on amendments. 1t is under
stood that one group will be consid-
cred and disposed of before another
one is taken up. The rule provides
that all debates during sessions of the
committee of the whole, and all pro-
ceedings in regard to the question, be
printed in full in the journal.
