Franco Arrested For Brutal Murder Done Thirteen Years Back, Being Held In Phoenix For Rigid Inquiry.
(Phoenix Republican,

tEnVEnkA LkCPAOtACd1sI
 It is believed at the office Of the sheriff that Vicente Franco who has haa- -a.taa se- 4ha Iest ths-4oa~ years for a brutal murder committed in the southwestern part of the city is in the county jail. The suspect was brought by Deputy Sheriffs Davis and McCann. He was arrested iE the afternoon at Camp Dyer where he had been working for the outfit of Lee White and Joe Rodriguez. He denies that he is Franco and was known yariously at the camp as Fran cisco Boiorques and Francisco Ro- merc.
 One Monday morning in June thir. teen years ago, Franco came into town early, with blood on his clothing and drunk. He boasted to some Mex. jeans whom he met h the lower part of the town that he had fresh meat at his tent and later told them that he had killed a man there the night be fore. No attention was given to his boastings at the time but later some one went to the tent which stood where the Santa Ffe freight depot now stands and found man horribly mutiiated He had been killed with an axe.
 It was the body Of Ramon CoroDel a native of Chile. The indications were that after the murder. his slayer had lain down on the floor beside the bloody corpse and slept until moAa. ins.
 An inquest was held by Justice Kin caid and a warrant was issued for the arrest of Franco who was not very well known except by Mexicans who did not greatly assist the officers ID finding him. Another man was ar rested but was quickly discharged and that thirteen year old warrant has been reposing In the desks of the successors of Justice Ksncaid.
 Franco had a cousin in Phoenix, s prostitute who is still living here and it was not known that he had any other relatives in this vicinity. Il was said that his cousin with whom he had some trouble would not shield Tn his capture.
 But he was never seen here after ward though rumors of his appear Mexico and New Mexico occasionally tcdCutu kut DtttCSAS-
 On Wednesday the sheriffs office was informed that man believed to be Franco was working near Frog Tanks and Deputies Davis and Me Cam went to Redriguez's camp. They had been advised tat they should bs eauioua When they came within sight of the camp, Davis who was known by all Mexicans there fell into the rear and McCann went forward and approached the man known as Romero. When he called to him to surrender, the Mexican dropped hls hands but a word from the officer held them aioft A man said to be a relative of Romero approached the officer threateningly and when Nc Cam. turned the point of his gun up on him. the arms of Romero again fell. The officer quickly hoisted them with his gun and by that time Davis came up and seized him.
 Romero WAS handcuffed and shack led. He asked no questions regard ing the charge on which he had been arrested bat said he would be glad tc come to Poenix and find out why he was wanted. At no time on his way to town did he manifest any curiosity regarding the charge against him.

SOME LEGAL STEPS
Vet to Be Taken to Get Title for Ex-
tension of Federal Building.

1t Is evident that work upon the en-
tension of the federal building will not
begin this season. None will regret
this more than the occupants of the
building. which is in bad repair owing
to the fact that whenever any need OF
repair arises, the government has met
1t temporarily, not making repairs per-
manently for the reason that it was
expected soon to give the whole build
of its enlargement
The arrangements for lighting the
work rooms in the building are poor
and indeed the whole lighting System
needs to be renovated. \ few days ago
Proctor l.. DOugherty assistant inSpec-
tor OF electric lighting plants, Treas
ur: Department, Washington. ID. c.,
visited the building and made thorough
inspection OF the lighting equipment.
He appreciated the need of Il new
equipment but he gave little cnccur-
agemcnt Of obtaining it because the de-
partment is awaiting the enlargement
of the building
Some time ago it was reported that
all the legal steps necessary t. secure
the title to the land had been taken.
Wednesday. however, the custodian of
the building received q communication
from the United States district attor-
ncy in which it appears that some
steps in the probate court on the part
of Mr.. Titcomb'' are yet necessary.

again opened Sagadahoc's August
term Of the supreme judicial court af-
ter its recess from Friday. to allow

rohtunity to attend the sessions of the

The first ease t. be tried after this
recess is that Of the State against
Ellsworth Il. Luvctt for alleged init
macy with Annie NJ. Nuttcr. now IL
years OF age. but at the date of the al
legged criminal act in uJly last ten
years Of age.
The girl is but 4 child although
physically well Developed She is the
youngest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
William +. Nutt,r of Georgetown. She
is a very intelligent girl of rather pre-
posse sSinG appearance.
County ATTORNEY Arthur r.. Stctson for
tie State ably and tersely presented the
case before the jury in opening the trial.
His Pre- sentiment of course is based upon
the story told 1y the child and the MARIA
ton Of the girls parents
PrieGy stated. the child alleges that the
RESPONDENT ovcitt, who was n boarder
at tie Nutter home in Georgetown at the
tim" Of the alleged crime, was familiar,
upon one occasion. and likewise upon an
other date Mt which time the crime al
legged vas committed in her home: also
that said criminal act was perrctrated
second time the day before respondent
was arrested in July.
Corroborating the girls story is the
statement of the parents as to their
Child's peculiar actions after the alleged
offence and the statement of the attend
ing physician. DIR. +. NJ. Fuller. Jr., Of

ANSWERS EVERY CALL
Augusta People Have Found That
This is True.

A cold, a strain. sudden wrench,
A little cause may hurt the kidneys
Spells Of backache often follow,
Or some irregularity of the urine.
A certain remedy for such attacks,
A medicine that answers every call,
Is Doans Kidney Pills, true
specific.
Many Augusta people rely on 1t.
Here is Augusta proof.
Mrs. j. f. Cousins, Of 16 Page St,
Augusta, Me, says: Our appreciation
of Doan's Kidney Pills increases as we
learn more and more their great value.
My husband procured the remedy in
the spring Of 1898 at Chas. X.
Partridgc's drug store, now Willis r.
Partridge, and they cured him of
severe backache and other ailments
arising from imperfect action of his
kidneys. His rest had been mucn
broken at night because of the trouble
in Augusta who have used DOan's
Kidney Pills and in each and every
case the results have been satisfactory
I have on numerous occasions heard
people praise DOans Kidney Pills and
during the several years since we first
learned their merits our faith has
constantly increased regarding their
value and effectiveness"
