Salt RiVor Valley Citrus Fruit Larger Than What is Wanted in the
 l..- East

Seven carloads of oranges have been shipped to eastern points by the Arizona Orange Association since the present season began. Two carloads will go out today and two more each day until the end of the week. By that time the size of the crop can be guaged with some degree of ac- curacy. At present it can only be guessed at.
 The packing house is handling the oranges as fast as they come in . up to this time it has never ben taxed to it's capacity. Two carloads a day can be handled with ease. This week may be its busiest period of the entire season.
 So far as quality goes. the oranges are just what are wanted in the eastern markets. The only draw back to this years crop is that the oranges are too large.
 Dealers prefer to handle oranges that run about 126 to the box. The average is about 150. But this sea sons oranges from the Salt River Valley groves are so uniformly large that some of them run only 64 to the box They are just little bit too small to be. called. pumpkins but are in many eases. fully as large as

It. was not long before his brothers and sisters and later his mother turned against him. as they did not like the way he conducted the business. Finally his wife threw him over and told him to go, never to return, and since then he said he had been travelling over the face of the earth like the Wandering Jew He said that like that character he had been unable to stop long in any place. no matter even if he wanted to. Something compelled him to keep constantly travelling.
 His travels he said had been to the uttermOst parts of the earth. For eight years he has known no long period of rest. He has travelled around the world hither and yon. as far south as Argentine Republic and north to Alaska. He says that he has no friends and nothing to live for
 He was asked if he had ever at tempted suicide. He replied that ke had but had not made a success of it. However in view of the fact that he had no friends and nothing to live for it was more than likely he would try it again sometime if he was not placed where he could be protected against himself. Altogether he seemed to be about the most sen sible and logical sort of a crazy man that has come before the court re- gently. even though his mental weak 'ess and utter lack of self control was apparent.

Mexican is Making Himself Very Unpopular With Phoenix
 Hunters

Twas iR--the cold. gray dawn The mist hung low over Salt river when a party of Phoenix hunters put out their decoys and settled as com fortably as possible in their blinds to await the early flight of ducks.
 A rush of wings in the mist told of the passing of a bunch of waterfowl and quacking and splashing told of the presence of others on the river. though it was still too dark to see them. All seemed favorable for good shooting.
 barbed wire fence that marked the limit of a nearby ranch were heard two heavy reports. There was a sound of wings beating the water and whirr. The hunters, crouching low in their blind. saw a dark cloud of waterfowl rise from the river and disappear in the darkness. They swore softly but fluently.
 That old Mexican is at itiagain: we'll get no shooting today said one.
 The mist lifted as the sun rose higher and revealed the river devoid of fowl. In the distance was seen a flock of mallard ducks flying low over the moties and headed in their direction. They were out of range of the hunter on the farm when they reached the river. close to the hunt CTS. but again a cloud of white smoke arose and drifted gently over the jules. while the startled ducks whirl- ed away.

CANADIAN ExcURsIoNIsTs-

Every effort Is to be made to obtain special rates from Los Angeles to
 Phoenix and to induce a thousand eXcursioniSts from the Canadian northwest to visit this valley before selecting new homes for themselves. During the winter four excursions are to be run from the northwest to Los Angeles and it is expected that about a thousand people will take advantage of the special low rates. Yesterday Secretary Harry Welch of the board of trade wrote to l.. J. Rice. who is in charge of the Los Angeles branch. asking him to see the officials of both the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroads and to endeavOr to persuade them to pub fish low rates to Phoenix to connect with the excursions. In case such rates are secured many of the eX- cursionists will doubtless make a trip to Phoenix

CLAIMED INSANITY

Charles White Committed Yesterday
 at His Own Request.

Charles White was yesterday ad- judged insane and committed to the asylum. Whites case is rather an unusual one. the examining physi- cisns saying that he is suffering purely and simply. but severely of melancholia. He tells a story that could hardly be credited to a crazy person. providing it is true, for it is told so clearly, nevertheless it is plain enough that he is in such mental con- dition that for his own safety and that of others he should be confined.
 He gave himself up Saturday night going to the sheriffs office and ask ing Deputy Sheriff Olea to lock him up. saying he had formerly been con fined in the asylums of California and oregon. that he felt that he was again going crazy and wanted to be restrained :?
