Miss Wood said she met Adams
through an advertisement, in which he
represented himself as a New York
broker requiring the services of an
office assistant. He told her, she de-
clared, that she would be required to
give Il bond for $4,000 and that for
500 he could obtain for her the neces-
sary document. $50
Miss Wood gave himgthe money, and
after dragging her in the course of an
automobile ride he vanished. The man
from whom he hired the automobile is
still looking for his money.
The Chicago charge against Adams
is that of robbing Carrie Chap of that
city of 81 900 in July. 1905. Adams, OF
Wallace, is extremely retieent and de-
clares that he knows nothing of the
charges against him.
Adams arrest was caused by some

of Washington, the home of the or
der, has thrice entertained the con-
vention, in the years 1868, 1875 and
1894.
The Supreme Lodge, which is the
legislative department of the supreme
government of the Knights of Pyth-
las. is composed of the past supreme
chancellors in good standing in their
respective grand and subordinate
lodges, the officers o fthe supreme
lodge and supreme representatives
chosen by the various grand lodges,
to wit: two representatives at large
and one addition representative fol
each ten thousand members of the
subordinate lodges within the domain

Col. P. Frank Stanley, of Jersey City.
Supreme Representative Hayhurst
is serving his second term, and is
a member of an important Supreme
OuS COlllllttCC. ouPlSliS itOpb>
sentative Cobb is serving his first
term, and is a candidate for re-elec-
ton. He also has an eye on the SUI
preme prelateship.
Supreme Representative Cobb is
also a member of an important COM
mittee, and in 1900 he wrote the
burial service of the Uniform Rank
adopted at the Supreme Lodge con-
vention held in Detroit that year.
Supreme Representative Stanley
is Just starting his first term, and
if experience in the work of the or
der counts for anything there will be
another Jerseyman on the list OF COM

convention closes.
Efforts are being made to have the
secretary of the nav detail two or
more battleships of different types to
visit the port of New Orleans during

ARIznNA,S INTEREST.

In the discovery of a seven thousand dollar shortage in the New Mexico penitentiary fund, the feature in which Arizona is specially concerned is not so much the fact of a shortage, or the size of it, as the fact emphasized by New Mexico papers, that the responsi- bility cannot be placed entirely on one man. According to these papers, MT. Bursum's reports and books have been repeatedly passed upon by committees and officials of supposed competency. A dishonest man may be found in office here and there in any country, one who will grab the wallet when no one is looking. But the New Mexico situa- tion suggests that there are lot of men in office over there who are either incompetent or are winking at dishon- esty. Under whichever heading these officials may come. Arizona does not care to cast her lot with them, as she would have to do in the event of joint statehood.

BRYAN's Dn-- i. .MMA.

Much as he may oppose the practice. there seems to be no recourse left for Mir. Bryan except an injunction re- straininG the Illinois democracy from endorsing him. Tuesday he refused to accept the endorsement unless its en- dorsement of Roger C. Sullivan was withdrawn. But the Illinois democracy has already endorsed him and it prob ably knows what it wants just as well as MT. Bryan does. The question very naturally arises, what will MT Bryan do if thedemocracy stands pat? Would he rob them of their constitutional right to love and admire him if they want to? Or will he appeal to the divorce court asking a legal separation from the Illinois democracy and nam ing Roger C. Sullivan as correspond ent?

that which confronted the governor, when he discovered the true situation in the penitent'ary and found it his duty to expose it. MT. Bursum is chairman of the republican territorial committee. He has held high place in the party councils and has been recognized as one of it's leaders. But in doing h's duty to the people the governor has done service to the re- publican party, for he has brought to light the true condition of affairs in the penitentiary during MT Bursums s administration, in t'me to allow the party to right itself before it enters upon the fall campaign, the most inn portant campaign in the history of the party in the territory, when it is more than ever essential that the party leaders should have the complete con fidence of the people.
 MT. Bursum has been a hard party worker. The last and greatest service he can do to the republican party is to quietly retire and leave the party free to recover itself from the blow which it has received through his dis astrous record in the penitentiary management.-Albu Journal.

NEW MEXICO'S PENITENTIARY
 SHORTAGE.

That the report of the experts to Governor Hagerman on the financial condition of the New Mexico peniten- tiary as left by H. O. Bursum, should have come as a shock to the people of the territory is not surpris- ing. Mir Bursum has held a high po- sition before the people of New Mexi- co; he has been recognized as the leader of the republican party, and although there have been rumors, ire quent and persistent: there had been nothing to prepare the people for the true condit'o on of affairs as revealed in this astonishing public document.
 The people of New Mexico are face to face with an exhibition of rotten ness and dishonesty happily without parallel in the history of the territory. It is condition so utterly bad that one is amazed that it could have ex- isted for so long unknown; that board of pententiary commissioners. supposed to examine and audit the ac- counts of the prison, should have been eAblS to pass IL ONels Lual II SnOulQ not have forced it's way out through the machinery of the territorial gov ernmcnt with which il was so closely connected. For six years this condi- tion of affairs has existed and it re- mained for Governor Hagermm to bring it to light, and lay it before the people.
 It is good for tn. people of New Mexico that the governor has done his duty, quietly, simply and without hes itation. The report has made it pos sible for the law to right to some ex- tent the wrong which has been done to the people. The report has done more; it has made it plain to the peo- pie that so long as Governor Hager- man is governor of New Mexico, no such condition can exist again
 The report brings the republican party face to face with an unfortunate situation; condition as unpleasant as

The woman who marries has to give up many of the joys of girlhood, but there is one joy that she never relin- quishes, and that is running to fires. When the fire bell rings, more married women than girls turn out, and they make quicker time in getting there. We do not know if it is because there is little pleasure going on in married womans life, but a married woman can make quicker time in getting to fires than the fire engine hOrses.-AtchisOn Globe
