Patrick's Persistent struooIe

It must be a matter of deep regret
to the members of the court of ap-
peals of New York that the original
judgment in the case of Albert T. Pat
rick, convicted of the murder of Will
lam NJ. Rice many years ago, and
sentenced to be electrocuted, was not
allowed to take its course.
A peculiarly strong chain of cir
cumstantial evidence was forged
about Patrick, and it was reinforced
by his proved misstatements as to
essential facts. After many efforts
to save his neck, his sentence was
finally committed to life imprison-
ment, but even the Communication has
furnished a loophole through which
Patrick is still trying to escape.
His contention is that he is already
legally dead" and therefore he is
illegally in prison.
That contention will probably not
be sustained by the court, but it fur
nishes an opening for an attack upon
the evidence on which Patrick was
convicted-that was the testimony of
physicians as to the cause of Rice's
death
This testimony has of late been
pronounced faulty by several eminent
physicians, who, however, could not
say that Rice did not die from poison,
but could only say that the expert
testimony could not have proved that
fact.

The First Excursion,

While the excursion to Prescott was
2 success, il would have been a much
bigger success if it had been on some
other day of the week than Satur-
day. The business men of Phoenix
find it difficult to get away from the
city on Saturday, for the whole day
II is their busiest day and they can
Tot leave without Inconvenience.
If the business men could have
been consulted as to the date they
would have fixed upon some other
day than Saturday, and most of them
would have made it a point to take
advantage of the opportunity to meet
socially the business community of
Prescott.
Much good, however, has been &C
complished by the two excursions
the trip to Phoenix by the business
men of Prescott, and the invasion of
Prescott by Phoenix people-for there
has grown out of these visits a better
appreciation of the community of
interest which should bind the two
cities in close accord.
It is always a pleasure to visit
Prescott-its people are charmingly
hospitable, and the wide-awake, clean
city is attractive. The summer eli
mate is simply perfect, and the peo-
pie of the Salt River valley are be-
ginning to realize at last that Prescott
is about the best place of all for the
summer vacation. There will, of
course, be other excursions to Pres
colt this summer

became actively interested and from
that time until the present he has
been among the foremost in the move
ment which has throughout been given
an intelligent direction. But for
Mr.. Hackett and men like him,
the subject of street paving, like
so many enterprises which de-
pend upon the keeping alive of popu-
lar interest in them, would have been
allowed to wane The mere talk of
improved streets would not have been
sufficient to quicken or perpetuate
interest. But when business men saw
that the subject was being approached
in a businesslike manner it became
accepted as a fact that Phoenix was
at last to have paved streets.

MINING ACTIVITY
NEAR TOMBSTONE
New Company Will Begin Operations
in the Near Future.

An important addition to the mining
companies operating in the vicinity of
/ Tombstone will be made in the near
future when a new company that has
recently been launched in Cochise
county viii start operations at
Pearce within the next so days The
Commonwealth Extension Mining COM
pany has taken over some eight
claims adjoining the old Common
wealth mines at Pearce. John Pearce,
the original locator of the Common
wealth, located this property at the
same time he located the claims
which he sold to the Brockman- Pen
rose crowd for over a quarter of a
million Pearce states that when he
sold the old Commonwealth property
he was Of the opinion that he re-
tanned the best part of his holdings.
With the resumption of the old Com
Imonwealth under the Clark manage
ment, the late purchasers and the
early starting of work on the EXten-
sion. the people of Pearce are looking
forward to better times and as both
these properties are 'gold-silver" they
are not hampered by low prices Of
their output as is the copper proper
ties at the present time.

The Tobacco Case.

1t is expected that the tobacco
trust will learn today whether it has
been reasonably or ''unreas onably'
restraining trade. 1t cannot, however
be held by the court of last resort
that the trust has restrained trade
TO the extent of reducing, so that
anybody would notice it, the con-
sumption of its products.
When the Standard Oil and Ameri-
can Tobacco cases were brought be
fore the supreme court, it was gen.
orally assumed by lawyers that they
would both take the same course;
that is, that the opinion in the one
would apply to the other.
Since the Standard Oil decision. the
Tobacco case has been invested with
additional interest.
A line which had hitherto been dis
regarded was drawn between alleged
monopolies, so that what has seemed
to be a similarity between the two
cases would not necessarily indicate
that the decision in one should apply
to the other.

WHAT A MAN WAS
BACON!


Every now and then a fragamentary
bit of information comes from Chep-
stow, England, where DR.. Arvllle owen
of Detroit is digging in the River wye
for the secrets of Bacon and Shakes
peare. Here. however, is a more com
prehensive story of what DR.. owen
expects to find, as it was written by
representative of the London Express,
who interviewed the American physi-
clan:
In the whole of this incredible and
amazing story of the search that DR..
owen is making in the mud of the
River wye there is nothing so incred-
ible as the inventory of the contents OF
those boxes which DR.. owen declares
Bacon buried two and half centuries
ago.
am now in position to give REV
details of what is believed to be hidden
beneath the bed of the river, and when
these details are understood ii will be
realized why it is that hundreds OF
pounds are being spent in this search.
The full story blends itself in to a
historical nightmare. through which
the figure of Francis Bacon, Lord Veru-
lam, stalks, bearded and sinister, know
ing more than any man of his time
poet. orator, lawyer. diplomat, scien-
fist, inventor, and-if We are TO believe
the cipher story of DR.. Owen-king OF
England by right of birth, with Queen
Elizabeth as his mother and Robert
Dudley, Earl of Leicester, as his father.
This and the design in the title page
of Sir Philip Sidney's Arcadia" which
Dr. owen asserts is Bacon's work.
