THE trial of Miss jerks for the
murder of Sadie Jones at the insane
asylum, which occurred at Phoenix
last week, resulted in an acquittal,
which greatly displeased Judge Kent,
before whom the case was tried.
Several Phoenix doctors were instru-
mental in securing the verdict, as
they testified that the woman died
from other causes than the effect of
turpentine administered by Miss
jerks. 1t will be remembered by
readers of the ERA that Sadie Jones
collapsed under the treatment she
received, and did not regain con-
sCiOusness, but died two hours later.
The prisoner was probably a good
LOCKER" the other woman was
dead anyhow, and then what was
the use, especially when Miss jerks
appered to be sorry that "the other
complications" limited at by the wise
NJ. DIS. should have bobbed up at
such a particularly inoppOrtune
time. Sadie Jones had no business to
be insane anyway. Her removal"
from the insane asylum, together
with the verdict of the jury, should
be a warning to the inmates still re-
naming there that they must at all
times be on their good behavior, and
not annoy the young ladies who are
paid by the territory merely for
rather than nursing
and caring for the afflicted.

Major Latin left Tuesday morning
for the Gilliard Hot springs where he
will spend few weeks rusticating.
Colonel Lou Hyer, who is at the
springs, sent the major word to bring
down some vegetables and some fresh
meat and other ingredients necessary
in the manufact ure of "Mulligan
stew" The major was provided with
the vegetables, but will rely upon his
rifle for fresh meat.

THE last obstacle mas at last been
removed by a decision of Secretary
Root, which for some time stood as a
barrier against the construction of the
50 100000 dam at Engle, N. NJ. The
work will now doubtless proceed at
once, and in few years the stored
waters of the Rio Grande will re-
claim thousands of acres of farming
land along that fertile valley.

THE Globe Belt came out last week
in a magnificent illustrated edition,
which is a credit not only to Globe,
but to the territory as well. AS a
weekly newspaper the Belt has long
been recognized as the best in the

tant when it must undertake the
responsibility of a daily issue.

The socialists promise to be quite
a factor in local politics this fall.
They will have a full ticket in the
field, and seem confident of getting
away with some of the pie. The
republicans will give them a hearty
welcome into the political arena of
old Graham county, but there will
be nothing in common between them
on the battle ground. 1t will be
free for all, and when the triangular
fight starts there will be a hot time
in old Graham.

On Friday evening OF last week a
wild turkey was killed within the
limits of the town of Clifton
Just as the shades of evening were
falling some ladies who reside on
Hills fiat noticed the bird on the top
craigs of the mountain to the north
of the residences. The attention of
Hon. Baylor Shannon was called to
the bird and he at once decided that
it was wild turkey, and he said
that it ought to be shot for having
such poor judgment as to wander
within sight Of the rifle range of the
Clifton gun club. The ladies ex-
pected Mr.. Shannon to bring out one
of his crack guns and take d shot at
the bird, but he claimed that he had
been having trouble with one of his
eyes, and besides that he was of the
opinion that his gun was not in shape
for good shooting. After some dis
cussion of the matter the ladies de-
cided to telephone for Mr.. Riley, he
of the eagle eye, who is recognized
as the best shot in the Clifton gun
club. Mr.. Riley soon arrived, ad-
iusted his sights to 400 yards, raised
the gun to his shoulder, took a hasty
aim, pulled the trigger and down
came the turkey. His craftsmanship
was loudly applauded by all present,
who realized that it was most diff
cult shot, especially as darkness was
coming on. They would not have
been surprised if it had required a
second shot to bring down the bird.
Mr.. Riley then climbed up the
mountain and soon returned with the
bird, which was a handsome gobbler,
weighing sixteen pounds. 1t was pre-.
sented to Mrs. M. T. Elliott, who had
it tor dinner on the following day.
Mr.. Riley may not always make good
on eagles, but when it comes to tur-
key shooting he delivers the goods.

In about ten inches of the bottom of the
skirt. IT should be made loose enough IN
slip on over a fanciful walking costume
and need not be costly, although il should
be highly becoming and well fitted about
the neck. Those of tan cloth tnterljned
for warmth and then lined with a gay
wooden plaid, are regarded as very smart
When the touring party stops at some
out -of town restaurant these outer coats
are laid aside and the walking costume
free from dust and tidy, is then seen to
advantage.
New York women of even limited ! cans
supply themselves usually with at least
two or three winter hats, and 1t may save
future embarrassment to choose one suit
able for automobiling when the oppor-
tunity offers.
1t is a good Idea to match up the walk
ing costume with a close-fitting, stylish
toque that can be worn on these occa-
stons. Its curves and bends should be as
carefully suited to the wearer as those of
her more elaborate afternoon hats vet
the not-to- be forgotten point in Its Sc
lection is that IL should be able to COM
bat the wind.
Among the trif1es that should be added
to the wardrobe wells are most important.
Usually the best-gowned women wear
two wells when going about In motor
cars. a short face veil to keep the hair
tidy and a long tissue one that fastens
the hat securely on the head. The face
veil should be as becoming as possible.
Black net ones with large fat spots are
fibrous quality to give rudy, healthful
glow TO the face, or. when the wearer is
possessed of high color white Is
chosen as lining instead of pink. White
net wells are unfortunate to use over the
face when autoing, as they take the dust
