OF the Arizona Republican.
Among the stories of local inter.

one concerning Frank Leslie.

"Buckskin's fame for>speed on
the draw eventually became q

who where wont to try their art,
as was the custom in the old
days, gave him q wide berth.
The fact that he went through
more than . score of shooting
duels attests to the facility with
which Leslie brought his firing
irons INTO play, declare Arizona
pioneers.
Leslie was member of the
Joyce Leslie ranch company. one
of the most famous cow ranches
in Southern Arizona during the
early territorial days. Joyce
operated the Oriental saloon and
gambling palace at Tombstone

NEW GRAND CANYON BRIDGE

surveys nave Oeon Starbeu Oy
the state highway department,
w. G. Lefebvre. engineer, for
the bridge to be built over the
Grand Canyon at Lees Ferry,
from which plans and specifica
tions will be made. Instructions
to proceed with the surveys for
the bridge and to prepare the
plans and specifications for the
structure were received ty Mr..
Lefebvre from the. U United States
commissioner of Indian affairs.
Under the agreement between
the state and the department Of
interior. the surveys. plans and
specifications and construction of
the bridge are to be done by the
state highway department. with
the approval of the department.
of the interior. The bridge will
be built under q federal appro
priation of $1,000 and state
appropriation of $185. 900 and
will be known as the Grand Can
yon bridge.
Preliminary surveys were made
by federal engineers SON e
months ago and the definite site
for the bridge located. The sur
veys being made by the state
will include the exact length of
the structure necessary to bridge
the stream. as well as the char.
acter of the rock wall and the
amount of the wall to be removed
to make resting place for the
bridge. When the surveys are
complete plans will be prepared
and sent TO the secretary of the
interior for approval, after which
bids will be called for and con
tract awarded.
The canyon at the point where
the bridge is to be built is about
600 feet wide and about 400 feet
deep, Mr.. Lefebvre said. 1t is
the plan now to construct a sin
gle span. cantilever bri d g e.
Steel arches will support the
bridge, the ends of which will be
anchored in the rock walls of the
canyon. The ends of the bridge
structure proper will rest on
foundations excavated in the
rock at the top OF the canyon.
At first it was planned to build
q suspension bridge of one span.
but that would necessitate the
building of four towers, two at
each end of the bridge. A steel
truss will support the bridge. it
| is estimated, in much better
fashion than suspending the
structure from four towers.
Materials for the new bridge
will have to be hauled 1872 miles
by truck from Flagstaff. it was
stated by Mr.. Lefebvre, which
will add some to the cost of the
structure. The bridge when
completed will open up a north
aud south road from Salt Lake
City to Phoenix. and will enable
automobile tourists who are tour.

Yellowstone park, to come south
through Salt Lake City, cross
the Colorado river ut the head

park and then visit the park and
view the Grand Canyon of the

Residents of Coconino county
are now endeavoring to obtain
an appropriation from the feder
al government to build road
from Grand Canyon east to con.
meet with the road from Flagstaff
to the new Grand Canyon bridge
to enable tourists to go to the
Grand Canyon without first com

back 20 miles to the canyon. -

G. Emerson Brown, director Of the
gardens, was elated over the latest
addition to his menagerie and sur
veyed the suIlen monster with great
pride. What a beautyr' he ex
claimed, as he gave the orang- -utan,
carefully guarded by several keep
ersl, a thorough scrutiny.
Say" he exclaimed, after little
thought, "that is the largest orang-
utan I have ever seen. / would not
be at all surprised IL 1t is the
largest one In captivity any place
in the world. He must be near
four and half feet tall"
Four Feet Five Inches Tall
As II to prove his estimate of the
height of the beast. he produced a
tape measure, and with the aid OF
several assistants the animal was
made to stand erect and be mea-
sured. The measurement showed
that the beast lacked a half-inch
of being four feet five inches tall,
from his toes TO the top of his
hairless head. Other measurements
showed that he has a reach of nine
feet when his long arms are ex-
tended from his sides and meas
ured from tip to tip.
The cognomen, Chief 'Utan," was
promptly endowed upon him in ac-
cordance with his great bulk.
Upon being weighed, Chief Titan"
tipped the scales at 24O pounds, a
record for animals of his type.
Mr.. Brown judges the animal to
be anywhere from Is to Is years
old. and announced that he had
never heard of one in captivity

Farmer Browns Boy had discov- cred two things. He had discovered where the things which had disa D. pcared had gone to and he had dis covered who had taken them. For that matter, he had discovered three things, for he had also discovered the hiding place Of Cubby, that mis- chicvous little Bear.
 "fo, ho!" exclaimed Farmer Browns Boy. This is where you a.a hiding. and you are the scamp uho has been puzzling us so. II is high time you were caught and chained up, and that thing IS going to happen right now
 Farmer Browns Boy went back 10 tell Mother Brown what he had found and also 10 get q hammer and chisel. Then he returned and first stopped up the hole under the porch. Then he knocked off some boards of the porch floor, un'.l at last he was able to locate Cubby's hole. Of course, Cubby had heard what was going on and once had tried to get out at the end. Finding his hole sto9ped, he had scurried back and was suIking in the hole he had dug.
 When at last Farmer Browns Boy ripped up the boards immedi- atcly over that hole Cuhby tried to dodge past him and get away. But Farmer Browns Boy was too quick for him. He caught Cubby by a hind leg and despite cubbys strug- gles carried him where he couli not get into mischief. Then Farmer Browns Boy went back 10 inyesti-

for killing Alvin Benson, you will simply be adding another crime-a crime of delib'rate and unpardon- able stupidity-to the one already committed. And between shooting a bounder like Benson and ruining an innocent woman's reputation I'm inclined to regard the latter as the more reprehensible." I could see a flash of resentment leap into Markham's eyes; but he did not take offense. Remember; these two men were close friends; and. for all their divergency of nature. they understood and re- spected each other. Their frank ncss-severe and even mordant at times-was, indeed a result of that respect.
 There was a moments silence; then Markham forced smile.
 You fill me with misgivings,' he averred mockingly; but. despite the lightness of his tone. felt that he was half in earnest. However. I hadn't exactly planned tl arrest the lady just yet"
 You reveal commendable re- straint," Vance complmented him. But I'm sure you've already ar ranged to ballyrag the lady and perhaps trick her into one or two of those contradictions so dear to i'every lawyers heart - just as if h ic-h y1y O could help indulging in apparent contradictions while being cross questioned as suspect in a crime they had nothing to do with. |. To put 'em on the grill'-a most accurate designation. So reminis- cent of burning people at the stake, what?"
 Well, I'm most certainly going to question her." replied Markham firmly, glancing at his watch. And one of my men is escorting her to the office in half an hour: so ] must break up this most delightful and edifying chat"
 "You really expect 10 learn some thing discriminating by tnterrogat- 1 ing her?" asked Vance. "Y' know, I'd jolly well like to witness your 1 humiliation. But I presume your heckling of suspects is part of the legal arcana."
 Markham had risen and turned i toward the door, but at Fance's s words he paused and appeared to i deliberate.
 T cant see any particular objec- | ton to your being present. he said, If you really care to come.' I think he had an idea that the humiliation of which the other had spoken would prove to be Vance's Lown; and soon we were in a tGXicab headed for the criminal courts building.

 May Have No Taste
 There was a time when medicine was not considered potent unless i, had a strong taste or peculiar odor Nowadays we know that some Of the most potent remedies may be without either taste or odor.
 The peculiar by-products Of as- paragus when taken into the human body have naturally impressed the credulous with the notion that it has extraordinary virtues. Instead it should be considered as a fine addition to the group Of usable vegetables, providing certain food elements. There is not the slightest scientific evidence to support the view that the plant itself or as paragin, a principle isooted from it, are of any other practical value in medicine.
