Men and women often say they can't
govern themselves. That is simply ad-
mitting they have defects of character
which are their masters. They ought
to make effort and see if they are not
mistaken. The worst effects of lack of
self control are on the health. 1t al
lows every kind Of bad habit in eat
ing, drinking, dressing and sleeping to
gain possession of the person, and the
result Is a weak instead Of strong
character. Home Notes.

Red has always been favorite mil
itary color Its employment dates from
the time of Lycurgus, the Spartan, who
commanded his army to be arrayed in
red tunics in order that new recruits
might not be dismayed at the sight Of
blood. Its first use in the British army
dates from 1925, when the yeomen Of
the guard were dressed in red.

CATCHING TURTLES.
Methods Used by the Fishermen Of
the Tropics.

m&thoGa VBed ny the E1nnermSM ~x
the Tropics.
Turtles are always captured at night
and usually on moonlight ones. This
10 the time they go on the shore to lay
their eggs. They select smooth
sandy beach, dig holes In the sand, de
posit their eggs there and leave them
to be hatched by the heat Of the sand
When the turtles are on shore for this
purpose hunters come upon them, and
they are easily overtaken, for turtles
are slow movers. The hunters have
not very strenuous undertaking. All
that is necessary to be done Is to turn
the turtles on their backs and leave
them until the next day, when they are
removed.
Another more curious way of catch.
ing turtles is by fishing by the remora,
fish found in the tropical waters. The
popular name of this fish and the one
by which the children Of those coun-
tries call them is the sucking fish. This
name is given TO them on account OF a
disk ON their heads, by which they can
attach themselves TO any smooth sur
face, like the side Of shark, a ship
or the shell Of a turtle. This disk is
like the soft leather suckers" that are
popular with schoolboys. When this
fish has once attached himself to any
thing you can pull him to pieces rather
than force him to release his hold.
Turtle hunters 60 In boats and carry
several of these remoras in tubs. When
they see turtle and get near him the
sucker is sent after him. He is held
by the ring on his tail, which In turn
is attached by a stout cord. Soon the
fish is securely fastened to the shell
OF the turtle, and turtle and fish are
hauled into the boat together. Once In
the air the remora loosens his hold and
Is dropped back into the tub to rest
until another turtle is sighted.-Wash-
ington Star.

MAKES AN ASSAULT
 ON A SMALL BOY
Mexican Degenerate Had 10 Be Moved From MorenCi
 by Officers.

The people of Morenci were startl- ed and mortified recently when the news was received that Mexican named Cruzilla had committed an as- sault on the little son Of MT. Zumwalt, a boiler maker for the D. c. NJ. Go.
 The first that was known of the af- fair was when the boy was seen go- ing to his home He could hardly walk, and while passing the smelter his fathers attention was called. He hastened home to find out what was the matter. When he learned what had happened he immediately armed himself with a rife and started to lcok for the Mexican. who could not be found.
 The Mexican was brakeman on the night ore train at Morenci and when time came for him to go to work the officers found him at the train and immediately took him into GUS tody, transferring him to Clifton, for fear he would recieve violence The man would have shot the Mexican on sight.
 This is said to be the most horri- ble thing that has ever happened in the Morenci community, and this fiend should be dealt with to the fullest extent of the law. He has lived around Morenci for many years and is only boy of less than twenty years of age. He is absolutely worthless, it is said. and has often been caught stealing, but this last act should finish his career forever.

MEX|CANS WILL CELEBRATE
 NATAL DAY
General Torres Calls for Big Demonstration at Cana
 nea on Sixteenth.
(speciai Corrsspondence.)

LA CANANEA, Mexico, Aug. 31.- In spite of rumors to the contrary it was announced yesterday that Cana. nea would not only have a celebration on September IS, but that it would be the biggest showing ever made here on Mexican Independence Day" This was the decision reached at a meeting of the leading citizens of the town held yesterday at the headquarters Of General Luis E. Torres, the meeting being called at his request.
 General Torres made a short speech setting forth the rumors and idle tales passed about on both this and the American side of the line.
 Tt has been said on every side that there would be no celebration" said he. land they say that there will be trouble of all kinds here on that date. Not only to disprove this state ment, but as a proof that I fear no such trouble and do not believe it will occur, I intend to do all in my power to have a big celebration here, the biggest in Cananea's history. and want ail of you gentlemen to help me"
 General Torres then stated that several hundred troops would arrive in few days from Hermosillo, to re- inforce the garrison here and complete the battalion which it is puTopsed to quarter in the city. Together with them will come military band. These he stated would form a good neucleus for a parade. He urged the commit tees to bestir themselves in the mat. ter of collecting funds. so that his idea of making the day great one, should be carried into effect.
 The men attending the meeting were so enthused by this speech that they immediately set to work among them selves, and after electing a committee to attend to the various arrangements for the big event, made up purse of ss50 gold among themselves to start the fund.
 The event will not alone be made a local affair. but will be well advertised in Bisbee, Douglas. Tombstone, Tucson and Fl Paso, and an effort will be made to secure excursion rates for the day from the railroad companies.
 No definite plans have as yet been made by the committee on program as they are not certain what amount of money they will be able to collect It is probable, however, that all mer- chants and large number of citi- zens win enter info the spirit of the

the owner the nature of the land, the time when it was settled upon, and the assessment.
 The task of assessing the agricultur- al land is especially arduous, on ac- count of the distances which have to be travelled from one district of this county to another.
 Plat books are also kept containing record of all the mining claims and all necessary information regarding the same. Other books are kept for the other classes of property, real and personal.
 With this system of keeping the records of the taxable wealth, anyone desiring any information on any cer- tain piece of property can obtain the same without trouble.

.
 To assess all of the property within the county is task which is difficult and tedious under the best arrange ments, but Cochise county probably has the best system for keeping a rec ord of the different classes of proper ty and their respective valuations.
 In order to simplify the matter of taxing the real property contained in the county a system of plat books is kept in which are recorded every piece of taxable real estate in the county. For the principal towns separate books are kept, showing each lot in the municipality, and the name of the owner. In case the lot should change hands, a corresponding change is made in the office of the County As sessor, on the day that the deed is filed for record in Tombstone. So accurately has this system been work ed out that when the new assessment roll was made up, 1t was only necessa- " to mark one lot to an unknown own CT. This one was in the City of Doug las, which contains 4640 lots within the corporate limits. The assessing of this one lot to an unknown owner was due entirely to the carelessness Of the buyer, in not recording the deed. The names of the owner of every lot in the cities Of Bisbee, Doug las, Benson, Naco, Wilcox, Pearce and Cochise are accurately recorded.
 There Is also system of recording the different parcels of agricultural land throughout the county. A plat book is kept, containing the name of

Tax Rate in County Will Proba- bly Be Lowest in Territoy
 This Year.

As soon as the cler kof the Board of Supervisors makes duplicate of the tax roll, the original will be turn ed over to County Treasurer Gaines, and tax collection will commence.
 This year sees Cochise county lead. ing all the counties of the Territory in taxable wealth, and it is probable that there will not be a county in the Territory with lower tax rate. The assessed valuation of Cochise county has just doubled in the past four years, and the tax rate has steadily decreas- ed. The tax rates in the different counties of the territory last year were as follows:
