GOV. HUNT SUGGESTS The
SIAMESE SLADANG FOR U.S..

His EXcellency Governor Hunt, IS
seriously considering the introduction
into Arizona, from Siam, of the sla-
dang, we are informed by the capital
city press. Disabusing the mind of the
first thought that the sladang may be
variation of the oriental glide, the
article explains that the sladang is
the name Of the wild cattle Of Siam,
and the purpose said to be in the gov
ernor's mind is the crossing Of the
Siam with the native variety of cat
tie.
Il. The sladang is said to be huge
beast about six feet high at the shoul-
der, with regular cows horns, which
are "short and about foot in cir
culHerence."
Information contained in the press
does not suggest what improvement
could be made in A1izona's herds, by
the cross-Ereeding. Maybe it is ex-
pected that it would produce an ami
NAL six feet in height at both shoul-
ders and hips, and if other features
of the animal were increased in pro-
portion the horns might extend over
the edge of the head and form heat
proof sanbonnet for the cowsladang,
giving the horns a utilitarian aspect
which they do not now possess. Or,
the horns, foot or more in diameter,
might be removed by the prevalent
dehofning process and turned into
flagans like those used in old t.oles,
for Arizona corn liquor, which is said
to dissolve any flagon yet devised.
The suggestion is also derived that
the head and feet of these anim>.ls
would be so far from each other that
there would be little danger of con-
junction of them in an epidemic of the
foot-and-mouth disease.
Anyway, it is interesting to note
that the governor, having bred the
pinto democrat in Arizona very sue
lcessfully, is now turning his attention
to other livestock and is considering
the breeding of a new sort of COW
from the Arizona stock and the Siam
ese sladang. If the sladangititted COW
is as hardy breed as the pinto demo-
crat, his work will not have been in
vain.-Tucson Citizen.

EBERLE QUITS POST
AS HIGHWAY AGENT,
ON HUNT SANCTION

The resignation of George Eberle,
purchasing agent of the state high
way department, said to have been
submitted shortly after the legislature
adjourned, was accepted by Governor
Hunt. Eberle has accepted position
with rubber company.
1t was announced also at the COVER
nor's office that between 25 and 30
employees of the highway department
had been let out on account of lack of
funds to finance the department. The
failure of the legislature to provide
funds for the department was said to
have made it necessary to reduce the
personnel of the office.

WHAT COCONINO "GAINED"
BY REFUSING TO SELL TRAIL

this great handicap, the Yaqui Trail
will be wide and of easy grades, and
it can be ridden over easily on a
motorcycle before another month has
passed. In addition to its width and
low grades, it is built upon solid rock,
and is as safe as city street. The
Bright Angel Trail is steep in several
places. The only advantage-if adj
vantage it can be called-the latter
trail might have over the new one,
will be the fact that it starts down
at the Ef> Tovar hotel, whereas the
Yaqui Trail begins its descent into the
canyon three and a half miles away.
This, however, will be overcome by the
street. like roadAleading to it that we
will have in readiness when the trail
is completed
Bright Angel Trail for years has
been the only way at Grand Canyon
by which one could descend to the
Colorado river, and the information
that the new one will be opened by the
fifteenth of next month will bring
satisfaction to the people of Arizona
and to the thousands of tourists who
visit the scenic place each year.
Mr.. Plumley, foreman of all the
road and maintenance work at the
canyon, said a great deal Of highway
construction work is in progress in
the vicinity of the canyon, and that
the government was spaling neither
money nor attention in its efforts to
make it the most alluring recreation
place on the continent.-Prescott
Courier
The Coconino sun., 1925-06-05

Failing to gain the privilege of
buying the Bright Angel Trail. which
leads from the Grand Canyons rim
to the floor of the great chasm, the
national park service, determined that
the people of the United States
should not be forced to pay toll for
the pleasure of entering the natural
world wonder, has set about building
its own trail The new entrance into
the canyon, to be known as the Yaqui
Trail, will be opened about June Is,
according to F. L. Plumley, foreman
of construction work at the Canyon,
who was in Prescott today enroute
from Maricopa county to the Grand
Canyon with two carloads of mules,
which are needed in building the
trail and in other road work going on
there.
Last year the park service offered
Coconino county 100000 for Bright
Angel Trail, but the voters of that
county turned the proposition down,
believing the tolls from those who
used the trail would be of more per-
manent value than the money prof
fered. When this was done, Stephen
II. Mather, director or Lne BdIloIldi
park service, with his usual swiftness
of decision, concluded to use the $780,
600 in the construction of new trail
"a better one than the Bright Angel
route and which when completed Will
require no toll to pass over it, as 1t
belongs to the people Of the country,
Soon after the government started
work on the Yaqui Trail, the Coco
nino authorities began to improve the
Bright Angel Trail but, according to
Mr.. Plumley, they never can make 1t
as good as the new one, even if they
had the money at hand to try and, as
It cannot be operated by the county

Skeletons Go Back
TO Prehistoric Age

Two prehistoric skeletons, more than
so feet in length, recently were I'M
covered near Hoquiam, Wash, by work
men In a railroad cut, according to an
Associated Press dispatch from that
place. Rev. ]. Herbert Geoghegan,
who examined the find, pronounced the
bones those of %ichthosaurs.
The skeletons were imbedded in from
40 to 60 feet Of limestone deposit and
were partly petrified. The railroad
excavation cut through the animals
ribs, which could be seen extending for
a distance of several feet in parallel
lines.
No skull was found, but a long tear
ing tooth discovered among the debris
was taken as indicating that the ami
mails were ca%rniyorous. The ribs vary
from three to twelve inches in thick
ness, while a portion of shoulder blade
is four feet long and five inches thick.
Knee joints and other bones discov-
cred vary In size from several feet to
only a few inches In circumference.
"The character of the rock indicates
that it was once sea or river bottom,
which through a fault has been v
turned" said Rev. Mr.. Geoghegan.
1.-THE layers Of strata have been up
ended, leaving the animals lying in an
unnatural position.
"The upheayal which placed the
bones on the top of a hill probably took
place at the time the Cascade range
was formed.
'The animal was a vertebrate and
probably stood 40 feet high, counting
the long expanse of neck found. The
classification of the bones could be
determined more exactly If we could
locate the skull of one of the beasts.
'This entire country appears to have
been tropical or subtropical in charac-
ter and the absence Of rocks and gravel
proves that the glacier which covered
the northern part of the continent at
one time never touched this section.
"From the character of the soil,
either river or ocean bottom, 1 am in
clined to believe the animals were
ic~hthosaurs, Or maritime reptiles, rather
than the dinosaur, land reptile or ptero-
dactyl, flying reptile"

Rocks Centuries Old

On the site where Trinity church,
New York city, now stands, great
glaciers were grinding their paths,
leaving their traces on granite and
other ancient stones 10000 years ago.
Evidence to support this conclusion
has been unearthed by engineers who
have just completed the task Of un-
d%erpinning the foundation Of the
church to prevent injury to the edifice
from the rumbling subways to the east
and west of the plot.
During the digging, according to en-
gineers, ice-worn stones, deposited
perhaps during the Second Glacial
period, or about 10000 years ago,
were found. The specimens were Of
granite, traprock and serpentine and
were recovered just above the hard
pan.-Detroit News

"Ghost Towns'' Still
Dot Western Prairies

"Ghost towns" standing as memo
rails to those days when the trails and
highways Of the mining country were
choked with frenzied gold and silver
seekers, still dot the West. They were
once promising towns that rose over
night on the sites of mythical mineral
lodes, only to fade away under a tangle
of weeds and tumble-down shacks when
leads were lost or petered out.
The fever and excitement following
q find" always brought a motley
army of traders, toilers, gamblers and
adventures to the scene, eager to risk
their fortunes in the hope of emerging
from the feverish contest in possession
of great wealth. Now only the wind
swept ruins, blackened with age, re
main to testify to the enterprise Of
those who trudged the hills and sun
Scorched deserts in quest of hidden
treasure.
OF all these 'ghost towns there is
one that stands out above all the rest,
according to Popular Mechanics Mag
azine. For a mushroom city, Rhyo-
lite, New, was unusually well built,
all the more remarkable when 1t is
considered that 1t was built on nothing
more substantial than the most specu-
lative stock proposition with no actual
deposit having been found
In 1905, Rhyolite had a population
of more than 10000, and so well estab-
lished did it appear that two railroads
entered it. Today there is not a single
inhabitant in the town and the beauti-
full railroad station which would do
credit to any enterprising community
of $4,000 is all that remains of the
railroads. 1t stands deserted with all
interior woodwork torn out and no
rails leading to it.
Two three-story efiee buildings Of
reinforced concrete and a fine eight
room schoolhouse were also erected.
One of the buildings and the school
house have been RACED to salvage their
material. The few remaining buildings
still intact are In various stages of
decay.
In the residence districts can still
be seen the most perfect specimen Of
bottle house in the West, a very elab-
crate affair considering the material
used. The walls are made of empty
glass bottles laid in cement with their
bases out. The bottle house is to be
maintained as a curiosity.
