AN UGLY ACCUSATION
 AGAINST PERCY VAUGHN
Alleged Criminal Assault Upon a Six
 Year Old Little Girl.

fred Percy Vaughn, the young man arrested on Wednesday nient by Con- stable Lee Redwine, assisted by Cap tain Thomas Rynning, of the rangers. who happened to be in the city, was arraigned yesterday morning before Justice Burnett and his trial was set for this afternoon al half past one o'clock
 Vaughn is charged with a criminal assault upon Tessie O'Roarke, the adopted daughter of MT. and Mrs James Ware, who live a few miles be- low the city. The child is only six years of age.
 The assault is alleged to have been committed at the Welsome lodging house on East Van Buren street The house is kept by Mrs. Ware, the moth CT of James Ware, whose wife and children were visiting there on Mon day afternoon. Vaughn has been lodging there.
 The discovery of the crime was not made until Wednesday. when the lit tie girl, who was in great pain, told what she could of the affair Mrs Ware had seen Vaughn in the vicinity of the child. but had thought nothing of it at the time The child was ex- amined yesterday by two physicians, who were unable to ascertain the ex- tent of her injuries, but another ex- animation will be made today
 When Naugnn was taken into GUS tody he did not display any feeling of uneasiness, and he has expressed none since. He is about thirty years of age not very bright, and is inclined to toughness. He denies his guilt of the crime charged against him. Vaughn has been about town for several months and was employed for a time at Bush's meat market. Latterly he has been working at the natatorium.
 The only witness whose spresencc Vaughn desired was Mrs. Ware, though why he asked for her is incom- prehensible, since she is the only wit ness who could furnish estimony cor roborative of the story of the little girl.

ence of details however and most of them would be uninteresting to the average reader if given out, but the engineers have no authority to talk now if they wanted to.
 The principal fact in which this val ley IS interested is whether or not the government vii. construct diversion dam. It has announced authorita- lively some months ago that it pro- posed to when it got title to the can als and everything else was in readi- ness, including thorough surveys tu establish the most feasible point for operations. Everything of a prelim- mary nature has been moving to that end and moving as rapidly as it could But tHe government does not gener- ally announce officially what it will do until it is reaC-- to do it and is in a position so Y can do it. Theoretically therefore, no dam site has been decid- ed upon. But t is not a wild guess though it is an unofficial one, to say that the engineers have a pretty good idea about what they will do and where they will do it. Incidentally so has everybody else, and it may be safely predicted that no time is being lost toward the consummation of these plans, even though the government IS
 
 or outlining policies It will be re- membered that the government had been at work at Roosevelt for a year or two before it could be finally induc- ed to announce that it intended to build the Roosevelt dam.
 Should the diversion dam be built at Granite reef and there seems to be no better place for it from all that can be learned so far, there are many ! things to consider and a deal of figuring that will have to be done. of purely technical nature. The height of the dam must be decided upon and that will depend very much on the grade of the present canal system or grade that may be made for it. There is also the character of the construc- | tiOn and the planning of the iTrigat- ! ing system, together with probably q l half hundred other things equally as 1 important that no one but an engineer would think of The fact that the en- gineers are here cOnferring about the matter is ample cause for satisfaction on the part of the people who can rest assured that whatever they are doing they are doing the best they can for the valley and as quickly as they can.
 Mir. Wisner will leave tonight for Los Angeles, though he will stop over day in Yuma to note the progress on the Laguna project. After two or three days in Los Angeles he will leave for the east to fill an agement and will then probably drop out of the re- clamation service work for a month or two. for as mentioned in these col umns before. Ee is connected as a con sUlting engineer and does not devote all his attention to government work. MT. Ensign will probably accom- pany MT. Wisner as both have to be together in Los Angeles very soon.

CUTICURA SOAP AND
 CUTICURA OINTMENT

"For a long time I suffered with Sores on the hands which were itching, painful, and disagreeable. I had three doctors and derived no benefit from any of them. One doctor said he was afraid to touch my hands, so you must know how bad they were; an- other said I never could be cured; and the third said the sores were caused by the dipping of my hands in water in the dye-house where I work. I saw in the papers about the wonderful cures of the Cuticura Remedies and procured some of the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. In three days after the application of the Cuticura Ointment my hands began to peel and were better. The sore ness disappeared, and they are now smooth and clean, and I am still working in the dye-house.
 "I strongly recommend Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment to any one with sore hands, and I hope that this letter will be the means of help ing other sufferers. Very truly yours, Mrs. A. E. Maurer, 2340 State St., Chicago, H., July l, 19O5."

HENDRICKS HAS
SOMETHING To
SAY IN DEFENSE

Syracuse. n. Y, Feb. 26.-Francis Hen
bricks, state superintendent OF insurance,
last night gave out a statement relating
to the recent report OF the Armstrong
committee TO the legislature iBr which he
says:
The fundamental idea OF insurance
legislation and supervision in this and
other states has been to require and pre-
serve sufficient assets and reserve and
trust funds in proportion to outstanding
policies TO guarantee the safe and full
payment OF ali liabilities to policyholders.
During my term of office there has
been no insolvency or default resulting
in loss TO the polcyholders, except in the
case Of one comparatively small fire in
surance company. where there was a loss
TO policyholders of some - per cent Of
the unearned premiums, and during the
recent scandals no well-informed person
has doubted the entire solvency of the
companies most concerned TO meet all of
their liabilities 10 policyholders.
Beyond the limits mentioned / do not
believe that IL has been the theory or ex-
pectation that this department would or
could exercise a daily watch over the acts
Of officers and directors with reference to
compelling the exercise Of ordinary busi-
ness ability and honesty I'm the manage
ment OF the details of the business COM
mitted 10 their care.
1T has been the theory OF the manage
ment OF corpora tons that those directly
interested in them would Insist upon the
selection OF directors and officers who
were assumed TO possess a least ordinary
business sagaCity and uprightness. and
that In the first instance the public de-
partments should not be charged with the
responsibility OF supplying deficiencies in
these respects.
