test against the mistreatment of
delicious, fine Favored melons.
Again we say, never spoil the
delicate flavor of melons either
by carelessly removing some of
the choicest and most delicate
pulp with the seeds. or by filling
the center of the melon with
cracked ice. which draws out the
flavor. All melons should be
placed on ice and properly chilled
before serving.
Cuts Of watermelon served as
balls, cylinders. triangles or hearts
make an attractive service and
are less troublesome to eat. These
cuts. from any melon are also
suited to the making of salads and
cocktails.

The Coconino sun., 1927-09-16

Another chapter in the Tonto Basin
war between the Tewksbury and Gra-
ham factions, taken from the files of
The Arizona Champion, predecessor of
The Coconino Sun, September 10, 1887,
reads:
A shooting affray occurred at Hol-
brook Sunday last, in which Sheriff
Owens killed two men, one of them
noted desperate named Andy Coop
er, and probably mortally wounded
another. Cooper is half brother of
the Blevins family of boys, and has
the rustlers and dangerous characters
which infest Tonto Basin. There has
been warrant out for the arrest of
Cooper for long time, but he has
kept out of the way or has been in
such a position as to defy arrest when
he has been seen.
On Sunday morning last, Andy
Cooper was on the street at Holbrook
and stated openly that he had killed
one Of the Tewksburys and another
man whose name he did not know, on
Friday and that those with him had
wounded several others. 1t was un-
derstood that Andy Cooper had come
in that morning and was stopping at
cottage on the north side of the
railroad back little way from the
town, occupied by Mrs. Blevins.
mother of the Blevins boys. A short
time after Sheriff Owens was met by
some parties and told Of what Cooper
had said. He Immediately procured a
Winchester rifle and started out to
arrest his man. On approaching Mrs.
Blevins' house Cooper was found
standing in the doorway. On being n
formed by the sheriff that he had a
warrant for his arrest issued at a
place named Taylor, for crime COM
mitted some time since, Cooper re-
piled that he would not be arrested,
and knowing the desperate character
of the man, before he could make any
break, the sheriff fired and shot him
