A Costly judicial Farce


AS has heretofore been briefly
related eight meu we're thrown
into Jail on election day on the
charge of voting illegally. AS
the cases have all been disposed
of and the accused men discharg-
ed, it is in order to give short
resume of the proceedings.
One OF the accused, W. A.
Deal, against whom the evidence
was thought to be the strongest,
was tried before Judge Redondo
and discharged. The defendant
was rearrested and the scene
then shifted to Tucson on writ
of habeas corpus, before Judge
Campbell, Henry Wupperman
appearing as counsel for the de-
PENDANT. Having to attend SUI
preme court at Phoenix, Judge
Campbell transferred the case to
that city, to be heard the follow
ing Tuesday, November 10. Be-
sides the district attorney and
sheriff, some ten or twelve wit
nesses were sommoned to appear
at the time set for the hearing.
Not one of these witnesses was
called to testify, but the bunch
had ride to Phoenix and took
in the Fair-at the county's ex-
peuse Judge Campbell remand
ed the case back before just
ice Sargent at Somerton. and it
was disposed of by him last Sat
urday. Wupperman and Molloy
ably represented the defendant.
After hearing all the evidence
that could be produced by the
district attorney and his assist
ants, Timmons and Ingraham,
Justice Sargent discharged the
prisoner, stating that there was
not scintilla of evidence sub
mitted that would justify him or
any other justice in holding the
accused for investigation by the
grand jury.
The following day another one
of the accused men was brought
before Justice Redondo = and
discharged for want of evidence
to hold him over. There still
remained in custody four men
who had been confined in the
county jail for twelve days with
out hearing. Judge Redondo
told the district attorney that
these men must be tried at once,
and that if he had no other or
better evidence that had been
produced in the other cases he
would discharge them forthwith.
Thereupon the district attorney
moved that all the remaining
cases be dismissed. The court
entered the order of dismissal
and the men were freed.
Sequel: The county was mulct-
ed to the tune of several hundred
dollars.
In the prosecution of these
cases the district attorney APP
pointed as deputies to assist him
w. F. Timmons, democrat, and
Fred Ingraham. a socialist, who,
of course, will expect the county
to pay them for their services.
The district attorney lost his
night and was evidently disap-
pointed-very much scat his
failure to "smite the hand that
fed him" and to smirch the party
that had honored him with one
of the most responsible positions
in the county.
And thus ends the biggest
farce ever enacted in any court
in Arizona.

The Joys of Life In Africa.

You must never walk barefoot on

enter your foot to raise a numerous

other hand, be sure when you put on
boots or shoes that, however hurried,
you turn them upside down and look
inside lest a scorpion, a small snake
or a perfectly frightful kind Of cent?

Grecian lines, and the style, at once
simple and artistic, prevailed.
So the original directoire was born
of the Greek and adapted to the re
quirements of the present day" OF the
closing of the eighteenth century, and
the directolre of the moment Is the re
yival of that of a hundred years ago,
with just sufficient amendment to suit
1t to our present day" needs.
The characterizing features of the
direetoire style are: Skirts scant and
elinging and en- traine, with a high
waist band; sleeves small, close fitting
and long; collars high; pockets large;
reyers exaggerated; buttons numerous
One, all or any number of these char
acteristics may be discovered In n
garment.
The Introduction OF the directoire
has caused a radical change in cos
tune building. The effect must be of
swathing, of a seamless robe, no mat
ter how much scanning, darling and
goring may be employed in the con-
struction Of the foundation.
Distinguishing characteristics of the
incroyable are the coats-long of tail
and cut off %squarely and abruptly
above the waist line In front, with
long sleeves, massively cuffed, with
huge revers and pocket faps-all much
bebuttoned.
Merveilleuse stands for the scant,
clinging, swathing style.
The empire style is an evolution of
the directoire. even as the directoire
period merged into the empire. The
chief difference between the two styles
lies In the greater fullness of the en-
Dire.

Running For the Car.

If you feel like emulating Sherlock
Holmes try your luck occasionally
when you see some one run for a street
a It's a good, easy way to deter
mine the previous training and the
present occupation of the subject.
You will see one fellow dash easily
toward the car with a long, swinging
stride that usually means athletics, but
no special training in the sprint. The
old time college runner can be picked
out by the way he throws his knees in
front, like a high bred trotter.
Some waddle, and you must relegate
them to the general category of "busy
business men, whose duty to the desk
has robbed them of wind and waist.
Others are getting more than their
share of avoirdupois, but in spite of
that manage to show you that they are
not out of 1t by any means. To that
type 1t is a veritable triumph to oyer-
haul n moving car and to swing on
without the assistance of the conduct

MISS ISABEL BOYLE.
Woman Steward of the Hoffman
House, New York City.

Woman Steward of the Hoffman
House, New York City.
The only woman In New York who
is steward of a big hotel is Isabel
Boyle of the Hoffman House, and so
capable has she proved herself during
her five years of stewardship that she
has become the right hand Of the pro-
prietor.
Mr.. Caddagan, the manager of the
Hoffman House, claims that having a
woman steward is his own idea, and
the discovery of this particular woman
is his also.
Mr.. Ca~ddagan's sisters were sent to
a convent in Virginia to complete their
education, and there as a fellow stu
dent they met Isabel Boyle, with whom
they became warm friends. When
they left the convent In Virginia the
Misses Caddagan invited Miss Boyle to
visit them in their northern home.
This in due time she did, but her fam
lily had got into financial difficulties.
and the girl was anxious to carve out
her own way in the world, so she
asked her friends to help her find n
position. Mr.. Caddagan, who happened

Absurd STAGE Business.

Theatrical production is full of abb
surdities in business. A situation is
required, a situation is thrown in. 1t
makes not the slightest difference if it
be a trolley car crew of song and dance
brothers manning a yacht in the desert
of Sahara. You have the trolley crew
and the yacht, and If the scene hap
pens to be a section of the arid west
where typhoons take the place of wa
terspouts-well, SO much the worse for
the scene. And If the conductors col
lect fares from the sailors to carry out
the business of the song, I'VE Are Jol-

must be prepared to submit calmly to

which is necessary to bring IN the

light a dozen stage directors.-Henry

To Fatten the Neck.

To make the throat full and round
the best exercise is to bend the head
slowly forward until the chin touches
the neck and then slowly raise the
head to Its normal position. Repeat
these movements until you are tired.
Then bend the head as far backward
as possible. Sitting erect In a chair,
bend the head from one side to the
other and then roll the head to the
right, left and forward Another good
position is to let the arms hang loose
ly at the side. Raise the shoulders as
high as possible, then forward, down
and backward, until a circle Is form
ed. Continue this for a time and
then reverse the motion. Do this ev-
cry five or ten minutes.
1t is also well to massage the neck
and shoulders well with cocoa butter.

What Is pirectoire?

D%irectoire, incroyable, merveilleuse,
are words on every tongue, yet they
are frequently used Interchangeable
with regard to distinguishing charac-
teristies.
Directoire is the comprehensive word
including %incroyable (the dress Of the
man during the directoire period and
the merveilleuse (the woman's dress of
the same period.
The classic type of costume which
has so revolutionized the clothes Of the
moment is a revival of the copies G.
Greek draperies assumed at the clos
of the eighteenth century, when thf
new government, the directoire direct
ory), supplanted the old French mon
archy.
At that period Greek and Roma,i
philosophy appealed to cultivated
minds, and classic costumes, as ex.
pressed in the lines of Greek sculp-
ture, demanded a share of considera'
ton. The women of the younger re-
public appeared attired in costumes on

He couIdn,t So the Joke.

"The mother-in-law joke isn't half
as funny to me rs II was when | was
a bachelor" said a young New Yorker
to his old chum. 1--WE got a pretty
good mother-in-law myself. and she's
visiting us now. That's all right too.
But here's my crouch:
"Whenever we go out in a bunch, as
we generally do, ma grabs the baby
every time we sit down-subway, ele-
waited, bridge. surface or ferryboat.
Just grabs the kid, you know. as If it
was her private property; exhibits it
in a way to everybody near by, tells
the woman next to her all about how
to raise children and what she's doing
for this particular one; attracts gen.
eral attention, you see, with my baby
as a star performer and my wife and ]
sitting there without a chance to say a
word and looking as If we wanted to
apologize for being on earth"
Don't think that's funny, eh?' said
his friend. How your sense of humor
has shrunk"-New York Globe.

The unmuaicaI Voice.

A friend who has spent many years
abroad remarked: at does seem too
bad that American children should
have such disagreeable voices. They
are acknowledged to be bright and at
tractive, yet because of their high
pitched, disagreeable voices they are
summed" says Good Housekeeping.
Travellers avoid a car or a hotel in
which there are young Americans"
Why is this? Largely because u
children are initiative, and as our
voices are not well modulated neither
are theirs. Is the unmusical voice a
necessary American trait?
Throat specialists tell us that, al
though our climate is inclined to sharp
en- the tone, a certain sweetness and
a low pitch may be maintained with
proper care. A child is soothed by
gentle speech and irritated by harsh
tones. OF course you read aloud to
your child. Every mother does. Let
this be done with constant watching
of articulation and tone. This Is good
exercise for the reader and a means
of culture In more han one respect
for the child.
Never rebuke In anger. Keep quiet
until you can speak sweetly and firm
~. One point which cultivated for
eigners notice is that our young peo-
pie call their messages from a distance
instead of going to the person and
quietly waiting for an opportunity to
speak. Shouting through the house IS
unpleasant and uneultured. A child
should understand that it Is not to
break in upon conversation. This last
performance is considered very Amer
ican'' abroad,

Mrs. Taft In The White House.

bafN s. EftS
Mrs. William II. Taft will move amid.
familiar scenes If she becomes the
first lady Of the land and is at the
head of the White House menage.
Mrs. Taft is a daughter of John w.
Heron, who was the law partner of
former President Rutherford B. Hayes.
The Hayes and the Heron families
were closely connected by ties of
friendship, and to Miss Heron Mr..
and Mrs. Hayes were always uncle
and "aunt." Miss Heron spent many
of her holidays from school with the
Hayeses in the White House. In a re-
cent conversation Mrs. Taft said:
Nothing in my life exceeds the climax
of human bliss which l felt as a girl
of sixteen, when l was first entertain
ed at the White House. The thing
that seemed remarkable to me was
that, although the Hayeses occupied
the most exalted position in the land.
they were just as they had been at
home in Ohio. They weren't changed
a bit. 1 couldn't understand it then,
for 1 supposed, of course, that their
amer must change with their adj
vent to the White House to be in keep
ing with my conceptions of the altera~
ton in their position in life"

Woman Invented Linen collars.

1t is now authenticated beyond a
doubt that Mrs. Hannah Lord Mon
tague was the inventor Of the detach-
able linen collar. Hannah Lord was
born In Canaan, Columbia county,
N. Y. Dec. IA, 1904, a daughter Of vii,
liam A. Lord, a Revolutionary officer,
member of the state legislature and
the author of Lords Tactics" used
by the early state militia.
She was married on Aug. IA, 1917, to
Orlando Montague, and they took up
their residence at 139 Third street, in
Troy. Mr.. Montague, as near as can
be learned, was engaged in making
fine shoes for women.
He was a large man, s%crupulously
particular in matters of dress, even to
the point OF fastidiousness, and In
those days, before the invention of the
sewing machine and when there were
no public %laundries, the making and
washing and ironing of his shirts was
no small item in the work of the house
hold.
Not unlike many housewives of those
days, Mrs. Montague was resourceful
and in casting about for devices to
tighten her household duties she hill
upon the idea of a detached collar,
which might be fastened to a neck
band on her husbands shirts and
washed and ironed separately.
In 1920 the Rev. Ebenezer Brown, a
retired Methodist clergyman, who had
settled in Troy and started a small
dry goods store at 285 River street.
quick to take advantage of the popu-
larity of the new separate collar, open
ed a small workshop In the rear Of his
store, where his wife and daughters
and one or two other women cut out
with scissors, stitched by hand and
washed and ironed the collars, which
he disposed of by peddling.
This was in reality the first collar
shop.-Leslie's Weekly.

light of sacred ceremonials. In this
connection the story is told of two lit

How Needles Are Made.

Needles are all made by machinery.
The piece of mechanism by which the
needle is manufactured takes the
rough steel wire, cuts it into proper
lengths, files the point, lattens the
head, pierces the eye, then sharpens
the tiny instrument and gives 1t that
polish familiar to the purchaser. There
is also a machine by which needles are
