MYSTERY SURROUNDING Pho
TOGRAPHER is CLEARED UP
Asserted That High School Students
are Guilty of Indignities Suffered
By Colonel Jeems Bell.

The mystery surrounding the dis
covery one day last week of Col. Bell
unconscious on the floor of his office
with his feet sticking out of the win
dow was solved late this morning by
Scoop, The Republicans cub reporter.
The particulars, in the order in
which they occurred, were as follows:
Oakland High School is preparing to
issue its annual year book. Seniors
are having their pictures taken at the
studio of the Colonel. Kenneth Stahl
is senior. He was before the camera
Col. Bell, as a good soldier and as was
the rule during the late war, sensing
danger, attempted to get back of the
front. Stahl, broke the camera and
ignited the fiashlight powder. The
fumes were too many for the Colonel,
hence his unconscious condition.
AS afterwards explained to Scoop,
the students present looked about for
Col. Bell following the accident and
concluded that he had gotten too far
back of the front to be overtaken.
Hence they spent the entire day in a
vain search for him. When Col. Bell
was told these matters he seemed to
recall everything and is now as well
as ever, barring a little nervousness
due to shock.
COMPLETELY RESTORED

Tucson is over 100000.

Tucson is over $1O,OOO,OOO.
The assessed value of Tucson is
$26,000,000 and that of Pima county
is $73,000,000. Four banks and trust
companies, eight. good hotels and
eight city parks, Carnegie library,
city hall, Masonic temple and many
other public and semi-public build
ings, all of large size, are within the
city.
/ am told there are % churches in
Tucson and many are large buildings.
The First Baptist has 1000 members
and the Sunday school attendance is
600.
The residents of Tucson do not hes
itate at cost when they want new
school buildings, as evidenced in the
erection of new $75O,OO0 high school
building. The structure is four stories
high, of cream-colored brick and in
it are 1915 students enrolled at the
present time, with fifteen grammar

The University of Arizona, located
mile from Tucson has campus of
one hundred acres with a large num-
Der of palm, olive and pepper trees
alongside the driveway. There are
many buildings on the campus for
different branches of education. Stu
dents come from many different states
one of whom told me there were 1900
enrolled.
Nearly two miles from town 1000
cattle are being fed for the market.
l visited the ranch the cattle are on.
They are orrasled in different sec
tions and are fed from troughs. In
one driveway of about one eighth of
mile there were troughs on each
side. All the cattle are white
faced Herfords and as they put their
heads through space to eat it made
white line appear as streak an
eighth of a mile long. The cattle will
be shipped to Los Angeles in March.
In conversation with dairyman he
told me he sold milk at II cents a
quart. He informed me cotton was
their main crop and irrigated from
wells 140 feet deep, the water being
pumped by electric power furnished
by the same company that furnishes
light for Tucson. He told me one
pump furnishes sufficient water to ir-
rigate 40 acres.
There are no skyscrapers in Tucson.
Five stories is the highest building in
the town. The main business houses
are two and three stories and chiefly
of brick and stucco material.
Here in the city are many beautiful
and costly residences surrounded by
palms, pepper and other trees with
green foliage.
There is one beautiful city park, the
most gorgeous l ever looked upon, and
in it are variety of palms and other
beautiful trees and shrubbery with
large fountains and well-laid out
walks
Tucson is situated in valley with
mountains four miles distant-the
Catalena Mountains, l am told. They
have large pine timber on the east
slope and much game in this govern
ment reservation. One six-foot noun
, tain lion was killed when feasting on
a deer it had pulled down. The climate
of Tucson is delightful.
! On the 29th at 500 a. M, l will
leave for Phoenix, 125 miles distant.

and the next morning there was only
enough snow to slightly cover the
ground and standing water froze to a
thickness of quarter of an inch with
the temperature "a above. Snow on
the mountains, sixteen miles distant,
remained five days.
While hiking over the valley fam
ers with their teams could be seen IN
every direction preparing ground for
crops.
While viewing this wide expanse of
fertile land, somehow the desire to
again be a tiller of the soil bobbed up
in my mind, but l realize that / am
past the meridian of life and tilling
of the soil will have to be performed
by the younger generation. However,
| am still a farmer at heart, but am
on an indefinite vacation.
Farmers are now irrigatlng altal-
ia, but cotton, corn and other crops
will be planted in April.
Fruit trees in the Valley are still in
dormant state and no indication of
swelling buds can be seen. Farmers
are hoping such conditions will remain
some time yet in order to be more
sure of a crop.
Ell Paso, Texas, l am told, has g
population of 125,000, with electric
street car lines extending five miles
to Fort Bliss, and is modern city in
every respect.
An immense oil refinery is now I'M
der construction in Ell Paso, the crude
oil to be piped from Western Texas
oil fields to this plant.
Ell Paso is becoming very much OF
a tourist town. From statement
published in an Ell Paso paper l learn
there have been 1854 tourist regis,
trations in the city from January
to February Is, and the surprising
part is that 1859 of the 1854 tour
lists were from California.
l had a delightful visit OF two
months in Las Cruces with kind rela'
tives and friends and their hospitality
and many courtesies will linger with
me in kind remembrance.
February 22nd, beautiful day
upon which l took leave of Ell Pase
for Tucson, Arizona, 312 miles distant
left Ell Paso at 1880 p. m. and the
porter woke me at 700 a. M, saying
the Pullman car had been placed or
the siding at Tucson at 400 o'clock
When l came out of the car | was
surprised to see beautiful green lawns
of velvety grass and palms and vari
ety of trees in leaf and circular drive
ways with beautiful walks all arount
both the passenger and freight de
pot. The green yards are very exten
sive and makes a good impression
on visitors and indicates progress.
Tucson is a very lively town o.
$1,000 inhabitants and stands 24O'
feet above sea level. The streets arr
wide and paved with cement and oilet
and the main streets of the city hav'

In order to prove his complete res
toration Col. Bell and Scoop went on
a hunting expedition and uncovered
a moonshine nest in building in Oak
land Owners name withheld from

all modern conveniences was taken
while the operator was away on a
business" trip in West Virginia and
other foreign countries.
On account of the coils and gas
burners in evidence in the house, a
f1ashlight picture was deemed inadvis-
able and time exposure of two days
and one night was necessary. Col.
Bell stuck to his post without food and
water and was near collapse on the
eve of the second day. His condition
may be analysed from the foregoing
picture, which shows his pallid coun-
tenance. He is still clutching the

1t is rather amusing to hear citizens
of Las Cruces and farmers in the Val
ley of the Rio Grande River say this
has been an unusually cold winter. If
we of Maryland could have similar
winter we would consider such condi-
tons extremely mild. December and
January are considered the winter
months in this climate. February
has encroached on this claim to some
extent this year. On February 18th

today not only by cold wave pre-.
