but he did not go to bed His visit was d short one and he evidently did not wish to be seen. but a woman about the house caught a glimpse of him. rA
 The next morning Busta's gold watch was gone and his purse. Another lodger missed s250. Busta reported the affair the next morning. but the evidence did not seem sufficient. Any how it was thought that if a close watch were quietly kept on Salazar there would be a development of the evidence.
 Constable Murphy began stalking him. He found that he was working for the. street railway company. but that he had been laid off at the begin ming of the rain. However. pay day had not come around vet. and it was certain that Salazar would come around with it. The railway officials promised to notify the officer on the appearance of Salazar.
 The notification came yesterday morning while the officer who had been up all night was still asleep. By the time he reached the railway office Salazar had gone. The officer de- voted himself to trailing him. and a little before noon he overlook him in the>block. So long a time had elapsed since the robbery that Salazar had taken to wearing the stolen watch and it was found on him.
 He will be arraigned in Justice Johnstone's court today.

successful. designed to popularize the cactus plant as a food for human be- ings as well as animals.
 She says she has learned that. prop erly cooked. the young cactus leaves or slabs are very palatable. When boiled they make nice greens. or they may be fried and served as egg plants pr. like lettuce. made into fine salads. Of course, not all varieties or all DOT tiOns of every variety are good for these things but she has demonstrated to her own satisfaction that the cac- tus of one kind or another may be made a very fine addition to human fOodstuffs
 Respecting the use of it for ani- mals. it's availability for stock food has been much talked about in recent years Mrs. Yetter adds that it is greatly relished by poultry also. and that the plant is in no sense fully appreciated at this age of the world.
Arizona republican., 1909-12-24

She argues that if it were not intend ed to be made valuable asset to man it would not be found in such quantity all over the desert countries where there is need of just such things for food as cactus seems destined to supply.
 Mrs. Yetter is also engaged in mak- ing various confections, crystaiiized cactus. fruits, etc She says she has a number that are, to put it modestly delicious. and crystaliiZed cactus prepared as she prepares 1t makes an elegant substitute for citron. In fruit cakes and other products of the kitch- en. Mrs. Yetter says she will gladly furnish literature on the cactus and tell people of her experiments, if they will call at the address mentioned above or respond to her advertising in the classified columns of The Re- publican. She is interested in ex- plotting the cactus. she says. more through an appreciation of it's in trinsic value to the southwestern country than for the money that may result from her efforts She is a lover of the plant in it's varied forms and of it's natural desert home. as eN- pressed in the following verses of her own compositions:
 l have lived upon the desert.
 Felt it's sun-charm and it's air.
 And l think. with all it's children.
 That there is no realm as fair.
 l am longing for it's wildness.
 Just the desert sands to greet,
 And to roam it's hills and canyons.
 Where the cactus blooms so sweet I have lived upon thg desert.
 Felt the magic of fits spell.
 And I'm longing for my freedom,
 Where the shifting sand dunes
 swell:
 am yearnlng for its mesas.
 Where the warmest sun-rays fall. And my heart is swelling in me,
 For I hear my desert call.

Busta, the director of the Industrial Liberty band. A couple of weeks ago he found Salazar on the street penniless and without shelter. He took him to his room and kept him until he could get on his feet. One night after Busta had gone to bed. Salazar returned to the house
