POSSIBLY CRAZY.
The Suspect Taken to Phoenix Yes
 day for a Hearing.

There was some excitement here yestreday morning over the report that man suspected of being mentally un- balanced was running at large and though it was said that he was not dangerous it was considered best to have the authorities on the lookout for the party. He arrived in Tempe few days ago and being somewhat in need of funds. was taken by A. B. Tomlln- son and given work to pay his room and board. He conducted himself m very proper manner and worked faithfully and after Q few days took a place that MT. Tomlinson had found for him where he worked but short time. He quit. complaining that the work was too hard. He spent that night with the Tomlinsons again and the next morning told MT Tomlinson that he regretted his actions of the past few days and begged his (Mr. TomIinson's) forgiveness. As he had done nothing whatever out of the way. his conduct excited some suspicion, but he remained quiet and aside from refusing 10 wear a hat which he sald reminded him of former days. acted quite rational. After discarding an other hat that had been given him, he confessed to MT. Tomlinson during a conversation regarding his condition that he was not feeling well and had served time fin two different asylums, from one of which he had escaped late night before last and yesterday morning at an early hour he was miss ing. The Republicans carrier saw him on the street at o'clock yesterday morning bareheaded and carrying a niece of board He was not seen about town until later fin the forenoon. Mir. Tomlinson had reported his absence to the officers and pretty much every ono in town was looking for him. IL was not a particular surprise to the post master therefore. when fine appeared al the window and called for his mail MT. Hodnett detained him a moment and slipping out of uoors looked Tor an officer. While outside another pa tron of the office stepped inside and in course of conversation with the hatless man. remarked that he would like the mail in such a box. giving the number. The suspect replied that he would get it for him and thereupon went into the office and was in the act of playing postmaster when Mir. Hodnett returner with the marshal. He was taken into custody and told the authorities that something was wrong with him. He was taken to Phoenix on the noon train by Constable Sigala and will be given a hearing before the probate judge.

MOVING APIARY.

Sharp & Vernoy, who have had an apiary out northeast of town for the past few years. moved their entire stock. consisting of no stands, to Winkleman. yesterday.
 MT. Vernoy states that his desire is to get the pure grade of mesquite hon. ey. which is recognized as the best known in the United States. He has investigated the condi, .ons around winkleman which is at the end of the Santa Fe lines. and he finds that he can locate his bees on the desert near that place. where they will have . field to work over which would supply an apiary several times the size of the one belonging to him.
 The firm estimates that they have netted on their I10 swarms the past year at least S35O. But they have been depending upon alfalfa to furnish the bees material to work upon. and they find while the product is all that could be desired in quantity. it is not up to their standard of excellence as to quality.

GENERAL RAIN.

The rain. which began falling here about o'clock. seems to De general throughout the valley. Reports coming in from Florence and the south part of the territory were the effect that a splendid shower was visiting that section. It was reported early yester- day morning that 1t was raining in the mountains east of here. but whether there was enough precipitation. to re- tard work on the Tonto dam could not be ascertained as the telephone line is out of commission.
 It will be remembered that about two weeks ago the men interested in the construction of the Tonto dam gave out the information that within three weeks of dry weather they would have the bed rock foundation high enough SO that it would not be affected by a reasonable amount of rain. Whether the construction was far enough ad- vanced to stand the showers or not remains to be determined.

CARE OF A GOOD ROAD
VALUE OF "HONING" ITS SURFACE
AFTER A RAIN.

How the Mount Hope Road, Near
MiddIetovn, N. ", Was Improved
by This neutrality-suspicious. of Gut
tiers and Grading.
The work of the Maple Dale Good
Roads club of farmers has attracted
quite a good deal of attention in To-
Cal way in Orange county, N. Y, and
Is of general interest, writes o. W.
Mapes, president of the Maple Dale
Good Roads club, in the Good Roads
Magazine.
Just west of the thriving city of
Middletown is a section of farming
country which is tapped by the Mount
Hope road. This is part of what was
formerly the old stagecoach route lead
ing from Newburg, on the Hudson riv-
er, to Milford, Pa, on the Delaware
river.
The following article by the writer
published in the Rural New Yorker in
1904 shows pretty we'll the methods en-
ployed in improving the road:
"The first step is to stake out the
work by making light furrow on each
side of the proposed work twelve or
fourteen feet apart. If any part of
these first burrows comes within the
beaten track where it is hard 1t should
be done just after soaking rain, either
with a pillow or the point Of road ma
chine. Next put the wheel of the road
machine in this light furrow, hold the
paint Of the blade firmly down in place,
remove every stone which the point
strikes and work down and out until
enough dirt is secured to bring good
crown to the center Of the road and a
good gutter on each side, making suita-
BILE outlets from all low points in these
cutters.
"This is only q question of applying
sufficient team power and removing all
stones that interfere with making a
good gutter. On portions Of our road
this alone will give us good road
with proper care in honing down after
each heavy rain and raking out all
loose stones. Other portions will need
Z little gravel Or shale along the crown
of the road. There are several hills
where this can be secured, requiring
only short hauls. A cubic yard hauled
on a twelve foot wagon is enough for
the worst places by dumping a full
load in a place, and in other places q
half Or a third Of load in place
will finish the crown Of the road.
Grading with the machine should not
cost more than $25 per mile nor draw
ing the gravel on the crown of the road

more than 40 cents per cubic yard.
This makes the cost only $500 per
mile were full load Of gravel placed
on the crown of the road all the way.
''How about the after care of such
road? Here is the secret of success.
When the first rain comes passing
teams and vehicles will puddle the ma
terial along the crown Of the road in
the beaten track, forming hard crust
as it dries, which will be somewhat
rough and uneven. Before 1t becomes
too dry and hard hone the surface
perfectly smooth and true with light
hone about five Or six feet long. One
man and team can hone off a bunch of
road in this way if he understands his
business at slight cost. He should
stand on the hone and guide it by
stepping from one end of the hone to
the other as the occasion requires. This
is very inexpensive and should be re-
peated after every big rain, though it
will never soften much after the first
pudding. Now rake off any loose
stone, and you have a beaten track on
the crown Of the road, over which
bicycle or an auto will roll as smoothly
as on the best macadam road and on
which you can drive clean buggy an
hour after summer shower without
having to avoid mud holes The only
other care needed on such a road will
be to sprinkle very little good gravel,
shale or even hardpan right in the cen
ter of the beaten track occasionally,
according to the amount of wear on
the road, and keep the cutters from
filling, throwing the stuff secured out
of them away from the road instead of
back into it.
''What are the scientific principles in
volved? The beaten track on the
crown OF the road is hard crust al
most impervious to water, while the
soil beneath this crust and at the side
near the lower cutters is porous and
open I cannot illustrate better than
by referring to turtles back Using
the hone frequently keeps the upper
surface of the crust so smooth that rain
flows quickly into the cutters at the
side, as it would from a turtles shell.
Rain cannot saturate this crust from
the under side any more than it could
on the under side of turtles shell.
If any happens TO work its way through
the crust of the beaten track it falls
away quickly through the more porous
soil beneath and into the cutters at the
side, just as rain would run from the
under side of the shell to a turtles
back through the openings for his legs.
At any rate, the sample which was
built after this pattern and at this
cost has stood the test of a years serv-
Ice and is still In almost perfect condi-
tion."

well take food, and would be much
better without the alcohol. If I am
fatigued with overwork, personally,
my food is very simple. | eat the
