CHASE AFTER C0ME0R
 Is WORSE THAN FUTILE
So Thinks PhOenician Who Has Just Ended His Vacation.

H. L. Maraman of the Old Mission Curio accompanied by Mrs. Maraman and the baby returned yesterday morning from a two months trip in 'the east. They visited Kansas City.
 St. Louis and Chicago. but their real objective point was Louisville, Ky, the former home of Mir. Maraman. Mir. Maraman corroborates the tes- timOny of most people who went
 away from Phoenix for the summer that is of those, who went east 6r west or anywhere out of the higher alti- tudes of the territory, that the weather was wretched, that it would have been much better to remain in the valley as he had done for three years without discomfort, in spite of his 237 pounds. MT. Maraman believes that this go- ling away from Phoenix in the summer is a fed and not a necessity. He thinks that if half the money spent annually in the pursuit of supposed comfort were devoted to the establishment of a pleasure resort convenient to Phoenix there would be more comfort here than Icould be found in chasing to either coast The people would feel better at
 the ClOSe or Iue summer anu lilt tiIy
 would be financially much better dur ling the rest of the year.
 Also, he thinks that not enough at tention has been given to the creation
 of places of amusement in Phoenix during the summer months, so that many go away not so much for the purpose of avoiding the heat as to es- cape the dullness of that season of the-year. It would, in his opinion, be la money making proposition to offer people attractions which would keep them in the city. At any rate, he says, his next vacation will not take him out of the territory.
 A. NJ. Benham, who has been in charge of the curio business in the ab- sence of Mir Maraman left last night for his home in California. The stock of curios has been moved from the Old Mission building to the Fleming block
 in the room adjoining the Phoenix National bank on the west. It has not been arranged yet and will not be un- til many improvements have been ef- fected to make the room attractive. That will take about two weeks.

SUNDAYS ACCIDENT
 THE GAS EXPLOSION
A Correspondent Explains the Cause
 Of the Exciting Incident at Roosevelt

The following description of the ac- cident at Roosevelt last Sunday has been received from a correspondent who witnessed it. Though the main facts have been published before there are some details that will be new to most readers:
 Just after the big turbine wheel which drives the dynamo developing all the electrical energy used at this place for construction work etc, was stopped at II o'clock yesterday, (Sun- day) for general adjustment and in spection a very unusual and peculiar accident occurred. The manhole plates on the big steel jacket were being re- moved When the lower manhole was opened Chief Electrical Engineer Dem rick with men in attendance was eX- amining the wheel. when a lighted can dle caused a violent explosion by the ignition of -methane gases, developed from the vegetables matter contained in the water. A terrific long drawn flare eminated from the manhole. burning the faces, breasts. and arms of the men who were thrown violently from the aperture into which they were looking. Their clothing was torn to shreds.
 The injured are A. H. Demrick, chief electrician; badly burned on chest, face and arms. R. H. Spencer. expert cleo. trician, who is installing the machinery in the transformer house; received gash in scalp over left forehead; badly burned on face and arms William Harvey. operator. face seriously burn led; chest and arms blistered. Thomas IA Crow, who is preparing pits for ad- ditional machinery. badly burned on face. neck and arms, and right should Ter. injured by being thrown against wall. All are in the hospital.

Tuesday morning he caiied on him and Rogers admitted the theft.
 The next witness was Paul Guern- sey, the night clerk of the totel. who saw Rogers leaving the room where he had no business. for though he had been employed about the hotel. he had been paid off the night before. He said the manner of Rogers was suspicious and he called to him to stop
 Did he stop?" inquired the court. No" replied the witness, he kept gO- ing!"
 The testimony of Marshal Moore re- lated chiefly to the confession Rogers made to him after he was brought back. He said that Rogers admitted all that he was charged with, and when he was asked about the stolen property he said he had lost a diamond stick pin, perhaps the most valuable article of his collection. Rogers said that at Maricopa, while he was waiting for a train to Tucson. he got in with a couple of men and they travelled to- gether. At Tucson all of them occu- pied the same room. Tn the morning the stick pin was gone but Rogers could not say whether he had been touched for it. or whether he had lost it
 The last witness was Officer Sulli- van, who brought the prisoner back from Tucson and that on the way ROg- CTS had admitted the theft to him. At the close of the examination of each witness Rogers was asked if he de- sired to question them. He did not, and when the testimony was all in and when he was asked if he desired to make a statement. he replied that he did not; there was nothing more to be said. he said; the witnesses had told it all and had told the truth.

citizens of the United States who shall know that he has been resident of this country for five years and a resi- dent of the state or territory where the petition is made for one year.
 In this case, the petitioner was a subject of Great Britain. One of his witnesses was his wife, who was born in this country. MT. Jones is of the opinion that she was not a proper witness. While there is no reason why a woman, citizen of the country, so far as a woman can enjoy citizenship, may not be a witness, MT. Jones holds that when she marries an alien she Dartakes of the allegiance of her husband and is therefore no longer citizen of the United States and can therefore not be such a witness as the law requires.
 So far as is known this question has never been brought up before and be- fore it is disposed of it will probably have to be referred to the department. The certificate had already been is sued in this case.

 MT Stephenson says that there are fifty at work now and are doing more and better work than could be got out of the same number of men hired at good wages. The day off of their sen tence is a bigger wage to them than could be expressed in dollars and cents. Besides, after their long con- finement in the walls of Yuma the work in the open is something like a picnic to them.

Boosting CommercisI Fertilizer
BY Public Speaking.

Mr.. w. G. Mcclure, local man
ager of the Refuge Cotton Oil
Co., has been quite active and
busy the past week or ten days
addressing the farming public on
the subject of Commercial Ferti-
| Ilizer-its best use, how to use it
and the kind to use on different
soils and for different crops.
Mr.. Mcclure takes for his
theme The Importance of Good
Farming in Connection with the
Uge of Commercial Fertilizer, "
and handles the subject along
thoroughly practical ideas. His
remarks and advice are much ap-
preciated and very interesting to
those who hear him. Having
had experience on the farm of
the famous Geo. w. Truitt, of
La Grange, Ga, who is a rela-
tive of Mr.. Mcclure, and having
devoted much time and study to
the principles involved in plant
nutrition since his company en-
gagged in the fertilizer business
three years ago, he is well equip
ped to give the farmers valuable
suggestions leading to a better
plan Of intensive and diversified
agriculture.
The business Of the Refuge
Company is increasing every year
at a heavy rate and such novel
methods of advertising is sure to
bl ing handsome returns.
Mr.. Mcclure spoke at Steens,
i'm this county, on last Monday at
a meeting of the Farmers I'm
ion, and at Cooksville and Ma
shulaville, in Noxubee county,
recently. He has accepted an
invitation from Congressman
Adam Byrd to make an address
at the Neshoba County Fair in
the near future and will fill other
engagements during the remain
ing summer, in Webster, Mon
roe, Calhoun and other localities
within the zone of territory COW

Company in the sale of their pop
