SAYS HE WAS HYPNOTIZED.
Rich Old Farmer Breads Result of a
 Strangers Visit.

Belvidere, N. J., Aug. 12-Hiran Raseley, a rich old farmer living near Belvidere, says he was hypnotized by a sleek looking stranger who was sell ing lightning rods, and that he signed two or three papers that he believes will turn out to be notes which he Will have to pay. The stranger went into a field where the farmer was gathering oats, and, being smooth of tongue, sooh had Raseley in a pliable meods
 Why" explained the farmer, "the fellow just came up to me and kind ot threw up his hands in my face, which made me feel so queer that I couldn' help myself at all. The next thing knew he got out some papers and ] wrote my name just where he wanted me to. l thought it was all in fun, but when I came to my senses l saw wha' an old fool had made of myself"
 The old farmer is greatly wrought U! over the affair and has taken legal ad- vice in the matter. He has no recollec- ton Of the nature of the papers he signed but says that he is sure that n will be swindled by the stranger.

IN TRAINING
Local Physicians Preparing for the
 Winters Rush.

Phoenix physicians are blessed with a very comfortable amount of business; in fact, an unusually large quantity for this particularly dull time in an es- pecially dull season. That is to say, there is plenty of business for those ment should not be construed into suggestion that there is much sickness in Phoenix. Indeed far from it, there has been comparatively little illness, eN- cept among invalids afflicted with complaints of long standing.
 Fully or possibly more, than half or the forty and odd doctors are away, either at the coast or in the east, and the business which would be divided among forty, were they here to care for it, is shared by half that number .. Probably never before, since Phoenix had become a city, have so large a proportion of the physicians been away" remarked a. doctor yesterday. "We all anticipate a greater number of health seekers this winter than have been here before and those of us who are away are getting rested and in condition for a period of hard work. 4. Reports from Colorado and the east state that many people are already planning to come to Phoenix as soon as cooler weather comes on."
 The doctors are not the only people who are preparing for big influx ol winter visitors. nor are the butchers the bakers and the candlestick maker alone in making ready for big business. In all lines of trade, belief in a rec ord-breaking winter population is ap- parent. Hotels and boarding houses are preparing to accommodate more people than ever before and several new lodging houses are to be opaned'
 The Indians, too, are making ready for a big rush on their wares. The drouth has given them more spare time than heretofore and it has been em- ployed in making baskets and pottery to be carried back east by the tourists. Out on the reservations large stores of

ARIZONA OIL FIELDS
Various Places Where a Petroleum
 Boom Is a Likelihood.

If Arizona does not develop an oil boom equal to that of California it will not be the fault of large number of men who are extending their efforts to that end. In four or five places traces have been found of petroleum.
 Mention has been made heretofore of the oil fields near Yuma, in the river bed and at the Potholes. The Seologl- cal conditions are described as favora- ble to the presence of petroleum.
 The second field is only eight miles east of Phoenix, among some red sand stone and conglomerate buttes north of Tempe. The field abuts upon the h. dian reservation, a fact that may cause some of the locators a little trouble. The formation, save for the little hills, is granite, in places covered with allu- vial deposit and in others bare. The Iocators are nearly all citizens or Tempe and more of them are daily flccking across the river to secure more ground on which to base visions of wealth. Luckily the land is nearly all open for location, as it lies too high and dry and is too rocky for cultiva- tion. It is in a rock peninsula that is thrust down from the hills on the north into the deep alluvial deposit that forms the floor of almost the entire Salt River valley. No rigs are on the ground yet, but a number of industrious en- thusiasts are sinking shafts. Some of the holes are more than thirty feet deep and the miners have brought up, Tn several instances, rock that has the odor of petroleum, at least. In fact

A TERRIBLE DEFENSE
Jesus Beltran in Jail Charged With
 an Awful Crime.

Three Mexicans appeared at the sher- iff's office about 1 o'clock Sunday morn ing. One of them, Jesus Beltran, was intoxicated and had had his features partially worked over with a club. He was under the escort of the other two, one of whom is a wood worker em- ployed at Gonzales blacksmith shop. The wood worker aroused' the jailor and explained that they had captured a bad man. and having nothing at hand to kill him with quickly and neatly, they desired to turn him over to the of ficers of the law.
 After Jesus was safely put away his captors told their story. They said that down in the Mexican settlement in the southwest part of town a little 5-year-old Mexican girl was living with her grandmother. Jesus spsnt Satur- day night in drunken revelry and then wandered down that way. doubtless in tending to sleep off his jag. He came to where the little girl was sleeping, and overcome with devilish instinct. seized her and dragged her to an ad- jacent clump of bushes.
 Her screams and those of the grand mother awakened the other two men, who jumped up and ran to the little girls assistance. They arrived just in time to prevent her outrage and one of them landed a stick of stovewood on the side Of the brute's head where he thought it would do the most good They then took the little one back to her grandmother and marched Jesus off to jail. Beltran is about nineteen years of age.

the excitement is to be charged almost entirely to sensitive Olfactories. A mining district has been formed, and locators have employed 9 surveyor to lay out their claims to avoid possible friction in the future. Only one stock company has been formed, but Its twenty incorporators are putting up all the capital necessary to purchase a standard drilling rig and thoroughly explore their ground to a depth of not less than 1000 feet The general hope of the populace is that the drilling will develop either oil or water. Many would prefer the latter
 Twelve miles northwest of Jerome and two miles south of the line of the Jerome narrow-gauge. railway, have been found oil fields so promising that 90. 900 acres of land have been taken up by a hundred prospectors, though it is agreed that the only likely look ing ground is embraced in a strip five miles long by a quarter of a mile wide. A number of good gold prospects have been worked for months in the locality, which is known to miners as Mineral Point district To the local names have been added Petroleum Hill' and Pc troleum Flat" This district, too, was discovered by a prOspector who had 2 good nose for grease. But men from California. who profess to be experts, say the ground is all that could be asked-a lime and sandstone conglom- crate, declared identical with the for nation of the best of the southern Cali fornia fields. By some the stone is called "horsebone." Even when taken from the, surface the rock has an ur- mistak keable odor of petroleum. Slate
