The baby of Mr.. and Mrs. 4. l.

en- a man up with the same loaded
quirt with which he mad assaulted the
defendant. The defendant said that the
month before that Benitas had attack
ed him with the same quirt.
There were several other witnesses
in the course of the afternoon, most
of them being character witnesses.
Among them was County Treasurer
Carl Hayden. They all swore that the
defendant had the reputation of being
a peaceable person.
The defendant had sworn that he
went to the house of Mrs. Ludeke on
the night of the killing because he
had been told that she wanted him.
He had also, he said, been tying to
get her to return to her children. A
Mrs. Plumridge swore that she had a
and had told him that Mrs. Ludeke
wanted to see him. This testimony
was put in over vigorous objection by
the prosecution.
Another witness was Sam Brown,
city marshal OF Tempe. He said that
the night before the defendant had
come to him and wanted him to make
Mrs. Ludeke go home to her children.
ala to do the same thing, but the latter
told him that he could do nothing;
that is. he could not arrest her unless
row should be created. 1t was tes-
titled on the other side that. Douglas
had offered to manufacture the neces-
sary row, but he denied that.
1t will be remembered that though
the killing took place about IL o'clock
at night, the defendant was not taken
into custody until about the next
morning. Mr.. Brown said that the de-
PENDANT came to him in the morning
and told him that he had killed Benz
tas and wanted to surrender. The
marshal laughed at him, he said, be-
cause he thought he was drunk. He
could not conceive that a man of the
disposition of Douglas would commit
homicide.
Douglas was asked why he did not
give himself up the night before, as
the officers were looking for him.
Douglas replied that he did not like
the accommodations of the Tempe
Jail, and decided that he would retain
his freedom for the night. He said
that he had been rooming in the Tempe
house, but that after the killing he
did not go to his room. Instead, he
slept in building or room outside the
Tempe house. He did not want to be
found in his room. The defendant
made a good impression on the stand.
Late in the afternoon there was an
unusual by-play While Captain Alex
ander was examining a witness for the
defense, and when he had received a
reply which was not quite to MS lik-
ing, the district attorney happened to
be looking in the direction of the jury

IN FEAR OF HIS LIFE
WHEN DOUGLAS SHOT
The Defendant Swore That He Believed That had be
He or Benitas.

When court adjourned last night
the evidence for the defense in the
case of Orlando Douglas, on trial for
murder, had not been concluded,
though it had been thought the night
before that the case might reach the
jury. But there are several more wit
nesses for the defense who have not
yet been called, and it is understood
that the prosecution will put others
on.
The principal figure on the stand
yesterday was the defendant himself
His story of the killing of Pedro Be
nitas was told. Douglas said that he
had gone to the home of Mrs. Luz
deke, having been told that she desir-
ed to see him. He went to the door
and, having knocked, without receiv-
ing a response, he went to the window
and Knocked. The window was rather
a solid wooden shutter and it came
open, or partially open. The defend
ant then said that he went back to-
ward the door, and just before he
reached it it was opened and Benitas
came out and made an attack upon
him. He struck him with a, loaded
quirt. The defendant said that he
drew his revolver not with the inten-
ton of shooting. but for the purpose
of using it as a club. Benitas, how
ever. seized his hand and struggle
for the possession of the weapon en-
sued. Then the defendant said he shot
believeing that his own life was in
danger.
A clash came between lawyers over
the proof of the bad reputation of Be
nitas by the testimony of the defend
ant. He was permitted to say that he
knew of the bad reputation of Benitas,
but the prosecution objected to his
statement of any specific act making
up the reputation. The objection was
overruled, and the defendant said that
he knew that Benitas had been con-
victed of an assault with intent to
commit murder and that he had beat

HOLIDAY GIFTS
Balke's Big Curio Store Helps Solve a
Perplexing Problem.

1t will not be long now until Christ
mas. Already people are engaged in
trying to solve that perplexing prob
lem, what shall get my friends for
a Christmas gift?" This troublesome
question will be easy of solution at
Balke's Big Curio store, whose stock
is complete, much larger and more
varied than ever before. 1t will be adj
vantageous to call early Maybe some
thing that you would like will be
taken by some one else while you
wait.
A picture is always an acceptable
gift There is the biggest stock of pic
lures at Balke's to be found in the en-
tire southwest. But the prettiest pic
ture is not complete without a frame,
and it is in frames that Bake shines.
He has frames and frame materials
of every possible variety. There are
gilt, silver, oak, and natural wood
mouldings in every possible variety
There is, beside, the genuine gold leaf
moulding. But given the best mould
ings, frames are made only by frame
makers. The frame maker is the man
who gives the frame a tone which can
not be impaired to it by one who does
not know his business. There is at
Balke's the only regular and profess
sional frame maker between Denver
and Los Angeles. -
If one wants a picture it would be
well to call early, make a selection of
the picture and the material for the
frame, so that it may be ready in
time. But everybody does not want
pictures and frames. For those who do
not, there are thousands of other
things at Balke's, any one of which
would make handsome holiday pres
ent. 1t should not be forgotten that
the Navajo blanket season is here
and so is Bake with the goods. He has
the best and most varied selection of
blankets he has ever carried, and at
prices which are astonisningly low, in
spite of all that has been said about
the strong advance in the price of
blankets by reason of the increasing
demand for them.

HOCH'S MAXiMS
Famous MuIt-Married Nan Gives Six
Rules For His Success in Win
ming Women.

Chicago, Feb. 13.-Johann Hoch
has given to the police six rules by
which he claims that he has been
able to work his will for the past
10 years.
The average man can fool the
average woman about as often as
he wants to" said Hoch, IF he
will only give her her own way at
the start. That gives her the i'm
preston that the man is the anxious
one, ard after that it is all easy.
Nine out of ten women can be
won by hattery, and the man who
knows enough to never let drop a
word about his wife's shortcomings
can have pretty nearly everything
he wants.
II is absolutely necessary that
when you make love YOU do 50
ardently: you can not say enough
nice things to the woman you are
wooing; they like to be told pleas
ant things about themselves, and
there is no surer way in the world
of making an impression than by
following these few rules.
Have | followed them for the
past 10 years. Well, if it were
necessary for me to marry all the
wives the police say have that is
the only way it could be done"

Meaning of Good Citizenship.

Good citizenship means fidelity

of the country. A government by
the people allows the citizen all
privileges toward good government
and a good government is only a
fact where there is an enforcement
of law. If the laws are wrong the
government is wrong, and the citi-

right to disregard the will and judg-
ment of a majority governing.

TRYING TO 10 roo MUCH.

The Southern Farm Magazine in
its last issue, commenting on the
fact that many farmers try 10 cul-
tivate too much land. makes some
very pertinent remarks on the sub
ject. The Magazine says there
are thousands of farmers in the
south who lose all their profits and
ali the pleasure of their vocation
by attempting TO grasp more than
they can handle. Many a farm of
800 or 400 acres IN cultivation
would be far more profitable TO its
owner If one half or one-third of
the land, with the same work and
teams, was cultivated. Il is pass
ing strange that q truth, in which
every rejecting man concurs,
should be so often disregarded by
even our most thoughtful farmers.
Profits are seldom in proportion TO
the size of the farm. II is rarely
true that the more acres cultivated
the greater the profit. 1t is far Of
tener true that the fewer acres the
more profit 1t should always be
borne in mind that there is no
profit that can come from a farm
until all the expenses are paid.
This is especially true of a country
where irrigation is practiced, and
the farmer who seeks 10 make big |
money" by planting and trying to
cultivate a large acreage, will find |
on casting up accounts at the end |
of the season that profits will not
be in accord with the great amount
of work done. In the Brownsville
country the soil is So productive
and quick of propagation, that fif-
teen acres will demand his entire
time and very often then he will
be compelled to employ extra help
to give his crops the necessary at
tention TO obtain ;he most satisfac-
tory returns. THE HERALD agrees
with the Farm Magazine that ell
ticely too many farmers are prone
to make the mistake of trying TO
cultivate 100 acres or more with
the same labor and teams, il would
require to properly cultivate fifteen
acres. When our agriculturists
learn this, as many have already /
done, a new era of prosperity will
down for that class of people who
should be the most independent on
earth--the farmer. THE HERALD
soon hopes TO see this time come,
and believes il is not long Off

FREDERIcKsBuRG's CLAIM.

fredericksburg makes a strong argu- ment for the burial of the body of John Paul Jones at that city. Un- questionably it is the most appropri- ate place. Fredericksburg was not only the home of this greatest of all the naval fighters of the worlds history while he had home in America, but is 1t itself thoroughly identified with Colonial history and with the begin nfngs of the United States navy and maritime commerce. Next to Fred ericksburg. Annapolis would have the strongest claim, but as a matter of fact the life and career of John Paul Jones constitute contradiction and derision of the value of scientific and technical training in making a sea fighter. He learned his trade on the merchant ves- sels and evolved his plans of battle from his own genius. He is rather a bad and demoralizing example for young men taking a regular course of instruction, because many of them, with the arrogance and confidence of youth, will fail to recognize the fact that there has never been but one ooiill etQl UOllGS dlld tttc1b uupllCo- tion of him is not probable.
 There is no force at all in the sug- gestion that he be buried at Arlington. Let the bones of the long-gone hero after their century of absence be plac. ed in the soil on which he lived and which he loved and close by those who were nearest and dearest to him. Richmond News Leader 5y

JUST A CASE OF RAKE-oFE.


 The Equitable Life Insurance Com |pany is not going to collapse.

Hyde has too much power in the Equitable. MT. Mccall too much in the New York, and MT. McCurd too much in the Mu- tuaL It is not right that the oppor- Itunity of investing other peoples money should cause $51,OoO of Equit- able stock to be valued at many mill I lions, or that the same opportunity in lother companies should make the of- flee of president the road to sudden wealth. The Equitable trouble is a flight for rake-off. It is a scramble, among who ought to act as trus- l tees, for money which belongs to the beneficiary. When the Equitable in vests in certain securities, for itself or its subsidiary companies, those secu- cities rise. The policy holders should get the benefit of that rise. Instead the directors, by buying a little for lthe company and a great deal for 1 themselves, can pocket most of the in- crease. They can also lend money to enterprises in which they are inter- tested. These two species of graft make them rich. Carried far enough, | these unconscientious dealings might weaken even such vast concerns as the Equitable, the Mutual, and the New York Thus far, however, the amount Iwrongfully appropriated is trivial in iconparison. to the whole.- Golfers.
