World Against Her Girl Says She
 Couldn't Be Good
Beulah Binford, Mixed Up in Sensational Murder Case, Claims When She Tried to Live Right She Was Pushed Down Hill
Special from United Press.)

Richmond, Va, July 25.-In her own words, this is the pitiful story of the girl behind virginia's most sensa- tional murder:
 ''I never knew any better. When was a child my mother was too busy to care for me or to tell me what a girl should know. Then, when I went wrong everybody was against me- I tried to live straight, but somebody would discover who and what I was and I was pushed down hill again. was ready to die for Harry Beattie. But I was thinking of Harry's old father and his baby when said I would do that. You see, Harry had them and a future before him while there was nothing in sight for me-
 Seated in her cell in Richmond jail, 17-year-old Beulah Binford the ''other woman in the lift of Henry Clay Beattie, Jr. held for the murder of his beautiful young wife and the mother of his five weeks old child, gave her first interview. She blamed no one and insisted she did not want to, be bailed out; she was ready to stay where she was until the authori- ties cleared her of any suspicion of connection with the dastardiy crime. In his cell on another corridor young Reattie maintained his placOd atti- tude, necessarily smoking cigarettes and strumming on his guitar.
 His cousin. Paul Beattie, who ad- m1its he purchased the gun with which the slaying was done, is in a state of nervous collapse in cell a few feet away Both men will be put through the third degree tonight, and the police hope then to establish the con- rection between them and third man in the case-who they think was paid to commit the actual crime.
 Beulah Binford will tell all she knows of the murder to the Grand Jury: and will repeat her story in court The police by working on her emotions. have brought her around to their way of looking at the murder. but all she can tell is that Henry Beattie was her friend.
 She emphatically denied the report that Beattie, tired of his society wife. wanted her killed so that he could marry his childhood sweetheart.
 'Harry was a good fellow she said but l.e knew just the kind of a girl I was. I could hardly expect him to marry me I never did.''r
 The girl was IT years old, and cele- brated last night. with a dinner served in solitude. Between times she read St Elmo. She expressed no re- grets over the death of her baby, say ing it was better for the child

 A Laundry Tip.
 There are many points in Iaunder- ing linen that are often overlooked by laundrymen They appear small to most laundrymen but it is watch ing these small points that makes perfect work. Tn folding ''turndown collars, many Iaundries crack them in the first or second time they are laundered. We are very particular about this point and dampen each seam carefully by hand before it is turned. It is then shaped in ma chine especially designed for tfsas purpose We also have a ma1hins for removing the rough edges from collars. making an old collar as corn- fortable as a new one. We pay sps- ciat attention to ironing shirts so they will fit. Not one laundry Tn hum dred can Iaunder q shirt so it will it properly. We have studied this and have the necessary machinery to launder the garment to fit just as the maker intended it should. We pay special attention to these small 1e- tails which are so often overfooked by laundrymen, and have in this way built up our reputation for fine work We would greatly appreciate a rtia1 package from you. and we feel cer- tain you would appreciate the hisn grade of work we are now doing.

HAVE DONE THEIR DUTY

We are reliably informed that
the assessment roll of Greenlee
county will show an increase of
over 100000. This doesn't look
as though the big tax dodgers
succeeded in accomplishing what
they intended to when they secured
county division. They certainly did
not intend to have as their assessor,
Birdno's chief deputy. Jim Kerby
made good as the chief deputy
assessor of Graham county and he
has not fallen down as assessor OF
Greenlee county. He has carried
out to the letter the policy adopted
by the assessors of the Territory at
their convention held in Phoenix
last winter.
Graham county's assessment roll
shows an increase this year of more
than quarter of a million dollars.
The increase in the assessment
rolls of ali the counties combined
will amount to between ten and
fifteen million dollars. This should
reduce the Territorial tax levy TO
not more than so cents, which will
make a saving to Graham county
alone of over $4,000.
From the result Of the work of
the assessors in all the counties 1t is
quite evident that Arizona now has
a set of assessors who are determin-
Cd to do their duty, without regard
to cririsln, and bunch who can
neither be bluffed or bought. They
have all done their duty, NJ matter
how much the sore heads have
kicked nor the corporation tools
bluifed.
