According to police reports, Reeves was seen walking into the Quest Mart at 915 N. State St. at around 10 p.m. Monday by Officer Tyler Schapmire, who was on routine patrol. Reeves was arrested on suspicion of murder without incident and Reeves was booked into the Mendocino County Jail, where he is being held without bail. Reeves is alleged to have killed Knight, whose body was found near the railroad tracks off Mason Street north of Perkins Street by a local resident early Saturday morning. Ukiah Police Capt. Trent Taylor said Knight appeared to have died from a vio- lent physical assault. It is not clear if any weapons were used in the attack, accord- ing to police reports.

Security agents jogged on either side of torchbearers and hundreds of police and military watched subdued crowds as the flame wound its way through Xinjiang’s capital of Urumqi. Although state media has warned of the threat from separatists they claim are linked with global terrorism, no disruptions were reported. The flame travels through the ancient Silk Road city of Kashgar Wednesday. Unlike in Urumqi, immigrants from China’s domi- nant Han ethnic group are a minor- ity. On Tuesday night, Kashgar’s streets were largely empty. Some streets had been closed and shops along the relay route locked up early. But security to head off disrup- tions geared up Wednesday as hundreds of militia and police lined the torch relay route. Bystanders, who were bused in from their work units, had to go through metal detectors and for- eign journalists were restricted from traveling around freely. The Olympic flame has had a smooth run in China, undisturbed by protests over Tibet and human rights that hounded parts of its international tour.

THE LEARNING CHALLENGER by Robert Barnett

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
