A Living Skeleton and Natural

 Chas. s. Payne, who could make his fortune in an Eden Musee as living skeleton, is serving twenty day sen tence ID the county jail as sneak thief. He is supposed to be a consumptive but it is plain that way back in his his his tory, long before tuberculosis bacilli seized upon him the bacilli of dishon- esty were making inroads. He was a natural born criminal. He was fired out of Prescott for an offense which ought to have landed him in Yuma. But the discriminating judiciary only sentenced him to Phoenix. He reached here less than week ago and immedi- ately made application for admission to the hospital. While the matter was pending he stole a valise and overcoat from the Commercial hotel last Sun' day night and the next night he made an attempt on the Byers house. This led to his arrest and he was tried yesterday afternoon before Justice Kincaid. He was his own attorney and skiilfully | cross s-examined the witnesses for the territory. But the facts were dead against him and he was found guilty The justice would have sentenced him for longer term than twenty days but there Is nothing in the statues authorizing an inferior court to impose life sentence and every day beyond twenty is liable to be part Of Payne's |

crimes of the Market street strang. Ter will be researsed in the crimi- nal court beginning tomorrow. Richard Demady will be placed on trial for the murder of Lena Topper. A series of murders of fallen women and the successful manner in which the strangler has eluded capture has made the case celebrated.
 The district attorneys office claims to have startling evidence that will prove as conclusive as is possible by circumstantial evidence that Demady at least strangled the first victim.
 A tragic feature of the case that may prove an important figure in the trial IS information gathered from the ra. wings of Demady's beautiful sister Madam W. Fouchette, who suddenly became maniac several weeks ago. Il IS claimed that she lost her mind brood ing over her brothers arrest. She was taken to the county hospital and de- tectives have spent hours listening te her demented talks.
 At times she would stand for hours her hands grasping the bars of hel room and her long golden hair stream ing almost to the floor and then she would often break out in denunciatlon: of Demady's accusers and talk of his crimes. At other times one of the strangled women would seem to appear to her and she would suffer the wildes delirium. Whether or not the detect ives have learned anything tangible 1 from her is not known.

The law does not provide that they shall be elected so as to fairly represent the component parts of the joint district; in fact, they may all be elected from the Ph9nix district.
 But County Superintendent Grouse sent a communication to the Grand avenue and Wilson districts suggesting that the voters meet and agree upon representatives, one from each dis trict, thus leaving the other three mem bers of the board to be selected from Phoenix district, and he promised that he would endeavor to secure local concurrence in thls Arrangement. Replies were received by the county uperi1tendent yesterday. Grand av- enue district voters nominated W. A. Moor. In the Wilson district John F. Hill was chosen.

 FiendiSh Crime.
Identified as the Betrayer of

He Tried to Destroy by Fire the Evidences of His Brutal and
 Most Awful Crime.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 SAN FRANCISCO, April 16.-This after noon Theodore Durrant was arraigned in police court for the murder of Marian Williams. His hearing was sgt for Monday next.
 The squad of police resumed their search of Emanuel church this after noon for further traces of Blanche Lamont's murderer. Under beam in the roof of the church the girls shoes were found. Her school books were discovered secreted between the plaster and framing. This discovery is inn portant, showing that Miss Lamont did not go home from school after her meet ing with Durrant. Blanche's missing glove and hat pin were also found secreted on the wall.
 Police Detective Anthony has identi- fled Durrant as the man who eighteen months ago took daughter of an ex- policeman to San Jose and there be- trayed her. After his return, An thony says, Durrant forced the girl to become an inmate of a direputable house. The police now believe Durrant intended to burn the church and so destroy the evidences of his crimes.

The experience of the fire depart
ment in reaching the regions OF
the city lying outside of the mile
or mile and half circle suggests
the wisdom Of establishing fire
stations little farther out from
the center of the city. San An.
tonic lies in a basin and to reach
any OF her suburbs it is necessary
to go up hill. 1t does not take a
pair Of horses with truck weigh
ing several thousands pounds
long while to run themselves out
Of breath up a fifty foot ascent, and
the same is true Of the engines and
hose truck teams. The conse-
quence is that when a fire alarm
calls the department a mile or
two from the plazas the teams are
pumped out before they reach the
scene of confiagration and go no
farther, particularly II the roads
are little heavy. Why could not
some OF the fire stations be estab.
lished part way up some of these
elevations that surround the GEN.
ter OF town, so that runs would not
be so far or so much up hill. In case
of fire down town there would be
little trouble in making the run as
the descent would fascilitate the
movement materially. The sug.
gestion does not cost the fire de-
partment a cent and is simply
given as suggestion. The LIGHT
is not trying to monkey with fire
this hot weather.
