Archaeological Investigations
conducted in the Salt River val
ley area of Arizona indicate that
many of the canals and irrlga
Ftion bitches are Identical with
the ancient system first employ
ed by simple aborigines in Ari
zona.
Miss Clare Lee Fraps of the
University of Arizona, in her
thesis, Archaeological Survey
of Arizona" points out simiari
ties between some present chan
nels and the ancient canals.
According to Miss Traps an
extensive system of canals was
first developed about ten miles
northeast of Mesa and extended
toto and beyond the area of the
Casa Grande ruins.
In telling of the foundation of
the compound at Casa Grande
the archaeologist explains the
agricultural system used. She
declared that the entire area was
given it's water through tree
like arrangement with the Salt
River as the trunk of the tree
system.
All of the labor in building the
first canals employed crude im
plements of construction, it is
said, and it required much time
to complete the first irrigation
plan.
Today, states Miss Traps,
many of the canals used for
watering we'll planned projects
in the Salt River Valley follow
the curse of the ancient ditches
Common sense aud the simple
laws Of nature were the only
devices employed by the abor-
igines. These methods may be
compared with the scient1c ;

ming the mathematically &C
curate irrigation bitches Of mod
ern farms"
The fact that the earlier peo
pie were able to build as accura
tely as they did is said to be a
compliment to their culture and
ability. The extreme age of
some Of the unused bitches is
shown By the fact that the beds
of the canals are eight to fifteen
feet below the bed of the river.
The first builders Of the canals
reinforced the walls of the ditch
es and spent much time in max
ing the system substantial and
enduring. Miss Traps also
points ont that there were great
differences between the agricul
tural districts of the northern
part of Arizona as compared
with the southern and central
areas. Agriculture in the north
was carried out on small plots
and in the central and southern
parts large systems we're the

GERMAN AVIATOR
 IN ROCKET PLANE
Develops Speed of 95 Miles all
 Hour in Talless Ship

Dusseldorf, Germany, April A P) -Gottlicb Espenlaub, German glid- CT enthusiast, yesterday attained a speed of 95 miles an hour in a tail- less airplane driven by powder rockets.
 Espenlaub undertook the trial flight with his shaped plane loaded with three rockets, each burning six seconds. At a height of 65 feet he flew over the entire air drome and reached the 95 mile an hour speed. The rockets developed 6G0 pounds of propulative power.
 The inventor had quietly under taken to fly with 10 rockets Sunday, but the plane bucked like an irri- tated broncho and was slightly dam aged. He intends to continue tests in Wesermcude with 10 rockets.
 Since Espcnlaub uses powder rockets, his project is different from that of Max Waller, who April 19 developed 50 miles an hour in a motor car using the rocket motor of Dr. Paul Heylandt. The Hcylandt motor weighs only seven pounds and operates by a combination of liquid oxygen and gasoline.

 Then one night the old gent tcok his wife to Circo's by way of little excitement. It was the night of the raid.
 The rest you can guess. The lady wore her diamond necklace. and of course early on in the pro- cecdings Mrs. Porter Mason spotted it. and kept it more or less in view, which she would do instinctivcly IS matter of habit
 Then, when the raid came and the lights went out, Paula or Mrs. Mason couldn't resist the tempta- ton to steal the diamonds.
 Afterwards she planted them on ycu She knew that the police would go over her with fine tcothed comb, as they did; but she hoped that you might get away with it.
 "Evcr since the theft the old gentleman who bought the fake necklace has been in mortal terror that the worthlessness of his gift will be discovered by his wife, who would never forgive him. He has implored us to hush up the matter, which we have done. So you see that even in Scotland Yard we have our little ronlances.'
 And what about Mrs. Porter Mason?" asked Jacqucline. "Is sh2 still in prison 2"
 "Yes. We convicted her on an- other count. She'll be absent for another eight months or so. You see she has rather bad record
 "Oh, dear And what about the old gentleman? Has he bought his wife real necklace yet?"
 "He hasn't done so up to tho present. to my knowledge. But have no doubt he will so so, an ] when he docs he will pretend it ha: cost him another cool 10000. Ol course, his wife will adore him."
 Hes a wicked old man. mur- mured Jacquelinc, "and l should just like to give him 8 piece of my mind.'
 When she went out of the aus tere rcd-brcil building, Scotland Yard had no further terrors for her. But when she left the Yard behind, she became abruptly seri- ous again.
 It was getting dark, and she was very, very hungry and faint.
 She had been out all day trudg- ing the streets in search of work and she had had nothing to cat since breakfast. That meal itself had been very sketchy affair of bread and margarine, with an indigcst- ible concoction described as coffee.
 That night she was afraid to go home or to what she called home 1 for want of a better word.

When you called on me at tha Majestic" explained Jacquelin2, 'the diamond necklace was not in my possession, because l had lost it."
 She explained how she had hi3- den the jewels in the palm pot, and how the pot had been change l by a chamber-maid; and the corpu- lent detective chuckled in quiet merriment
 Then, at his invitation, she told the whole story of the necklace. possession.
 T would have brought it back to you long ago. she told him. but I have been ill, and-and I was frightened"
 Frightened of what?" aske McAllister.
 That I should be arrested.'
 Are you still frightened Of that?"
 Not so frightened as I was NIltil llISt tIIiit Itlt. buI folIdll l be arrested, please?"
 Not for the theft of this ncc;- lace at any rate" smiled Mr. Me AIlister. "Of course, I don't know whether you have anything else in your private list of misdcmcanors. :.
 "Oh, no, there isn't anything else" Jacqueli1e hastened to re- assure him.
 Then you get off on the neck, lace score. because I happen tC know you had nothing to do with the theft. In fact, l already knea all that you have just told me, with the sole exception of the flower pot incjdent.'
 "Then you never believed I was the thief"
 If I had believed it we shouldn't have had to trouble you to come here to sec us"
 Why not?"
 Because I should have come and fetched you long ago."
 "Oh, dear!"
 We caught the thief the same night, and she is now doing a short term of Imprisonment, though not for the theft of the necklace"
 "she!" cried Jacqueline. Who was the thief, then?"
 Your friend Mrs. Porter Mason. That is the name she gave you, l understand. Her real name is PaulI Stratton. She suffers from the in convenience of being known to the police.
 T was present at the raid" Me Allister went on. Tn fact I was Tn charge of it. Night clubs are my speciality. When l heard that diamond necklace was missing ] immediately connected it with Paula Stratton, because that is her particular line of business.

1 way as it were.
 When I put her through the paces afterwards, she told me all about you and how she had passci the jewels to you"
 But I cannot understand said Jacqueline. If you knew I had 1 the diamonds in my possession. even if you knew I was not the thief, why didn't you come to me and order me to give them up?"
 We did not particularly want them. Where are they now? Have you got them with you?''
 Yes, here they are.'
 She produced the Glittering string of briliants and handed them to the detective. T am very glad to get rid of them. They've been worrying mo ever since l hal , them. And I think when I lost them 1 was more worried than ever"
 The detective held them up 10 the light, a string of scintillatins drops, full of fire and light. Rather pretty. aren't they?"
 "Fver so." returned Jacqueline.
 "Wouldn't you like them for yourself??'
 q should love them if they hap pcned to be mine"
 Well, here you are-catch. 4 pI escnt for a good girl. You can keep them"
 With which he tossed the glitter ing string into Jacqueline's lap. She picked them up and he motel her look of incredulity.
 T mean it. They are yours. l | have the permission of the late owner to give them to you. They are a present from that original owner. He told me l could tell the finder to keep them."
 Jacqueline gaspcd and stared. "Dut they are worth 10000 pounds. 1 The newspapers said so."
 McAllistcr Srinned. appreciating the joke and the girls picturesque amazemcnt. "Thcy are worth, per ! haps, the price of a new hat. my dear, if you can find a buyer. They arc bits of glass - nothing more, limitations, and not the best imita- tions either. I'm rather surprised at Mrs. Porter Mason handling them. I suppose she didn't get a fair look at them."
 Gracious sakes. then what is the meaning of it?" asked the ustonished Jacquoline.
 "I'l tell you the story if you like, since you've been one of the actors in it. It's an anonymous story no names, no pack drill. | Once upon a time there was a man who had made a big fortune from small things, and in a boast ! ful moment nc promised his wife that he would buy her a string of l diamonds for her neck on her fiftieth birthday, and he would not pay less than 10000 pounds for it.
 T don't know how old he was when he made that promise. Not 50 very old, I guess. And I don't suppose at the time he made it | that he ever expected to have 10000 pounds to throw away on | diamonds.
 But the man made money. He i is not exactly (. millionaire now, but getting on that way I should say. Anyway, he doesn't have to worry about where the next meal is to come from. But even milliou- aires are sometimes hard up for g few thousands of ready money: and it happened when his wife's fiftieth birthday came around this man found himself very tight indeed for ready cash.
