took him to a railroad track on the
| east side of town.
BY that time he became aware that
the party had designs upon his wealth
and he broke away, but was over
taken by Ferrias, who clutched him
| by the throat with one hand and
with the other drew a knife blade
lightly across his throat. The others
then came up and went through his
pockets, getting all of the money ex-
cepting three silver dollars which he
had received in change after treating
his companions of the evening, at
the saloon of the negro"
Ferrias was asked if he wanted to
cross-eXamine the prosecuting wit
ness, and he set about il through the
interpreter, to whom he addressed for
five minutes, without a let-up, what
seemed to be a hypothetical question
which threatened to break the record
for those interminable interrogatories.
Finally Interpreter Porterie interrupt
ed him long enough to address the
court:
He's giving testimony; he's telling
his side Of it."
Ferrias was then started again, but
his questions were those always asked
by the average defendant which serve
only to call out a reiteration of the
witness statements on direct exam
nation.
For instance: did you say l drew
knife across your throat?'
Ferrias then took the stand and
told story, up to the point of the
robbery, exactly different from the
relation of Jalisco in all its most UNI
important details. Jalisco had not
paid for the beer and the supper, as
he had said he did; he had not eX-
hibited any money; the witness had
not been trying to sponge off of
Jalisco all day, but on the contrary
Jalisco had brought a bottle of whisky
out of the saloon and compelled the
witness to drink against his wishes
He had demurred in vain and told
Jalisco that he could not afford to
drink until he had paid the balance
of a fine that was hanging over him.
But as to the robbery. Ferrias said
that he was the only friend Jalisco
had in that unfortunate affair. When
Ferrias saw that Ramos and the 9TH
er man were bent on robbing Jalisco,
who was running away, he ran after
him and caught him, so that the 9th
ers could not hurt him, and he threw
him down and himself on top of him.
and so held him that they might not
/ inflict bodily harm upon him. After
they had robbed him, Ferrias con-
tinued to hold Jalisco while his plum
derers were running away. lest they
might change their minds and come
back and finish him. His place in
that trying hour was by his friend.

THE INSOMNIA MAN
CREATED BY WORRY
Has Got to Think Up Something New,
as the Old Cure Will No
Longer Work.

I've got to invent a new story, said
the insomnia man. This one I've been
using won't do. The situation is this:
some years ago when occasionally
I found myself so disturbed that
couldn't sleep at night thought up
pleasant story TO tell myself TO sooth
me to sleep. In my case, as IL happens
in many, insomnia was caused by fl
nancial worry.
MY health was good, appetite Al
plus / was all right every way eX-
cept as to my bank account, which was
Z22 minus; and nights when l got
TO thinking over my money troubles IL
kept me awake, which is bad for any
body in every way. 1t was at this juno
ture that / made up the story | speak
Of which dealt with my acquiring
snug little fortune of 100000 yielding
the small but satisfying and permanent
income of $4,000 a year.
This story | worked up in such de-
tail that the telling Of it to myself oc-
ctpied considerable time, and il was
so natural and altogether possible, so
reasonable a story that it was con-
vincing: it never failed to sOOthe me.
Many and many a time have told ii to
myself and for a long time II never
failed to drive all worries away.
"Often l would fall asleep peacefully
and delightfully."- with the story only
half told before / had actually got the
money out of the bank, and then again
there have been times when my worries
would so break in on the narration that
| | would lose the thread and have to
start all over again, and then some
times / have had to tell il 20 myself
twice To make it effective. but for a
long time il served.
"Thep came a time when it proved
less efficacious, not that 1 doubted it
at all. but it had become somewhat
familiar and SO was less potent, and
| then | raised the amount that was COM
| ing to me from one hundred thousand
to two hundred thousand. which did for
little; but only for little while; it
was like any increased dose which we
soon get used to, requiring still more,
and finally l raised it to an ven bill
liam. enough to satisfy anybody.
But soon that failed and now, do
YOU know. that story has no efficacy
with me at all. Not a bit. The tale
that once so solaced and soothed me
now seems only to keep me wider
awake and I've got to invent something

.FERR|AS' NARRATION
OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN
BUT 1T DIDN'T IMPRESS THE
COURT.
He Was Held to the Grand Jury for

The preliminary trial of Bernardo
Ferrias for participation in the rob-

ARIZONA OSTRICH PLUMES
THE CHEAPEST AND BEST
The Bake Big Curio Store Selling
Them at Cut Prices.

Everything in it's season. This is
the season for ostrich plumes on the
near approach of Easter. Observant
ladies who pay attention to such
things have come to the conclusion
that ostrich plumes will be more than
ordinarily in vogue this year and they
are governing themselves accordingly.
That accounts for the heavy trade
in plumes at Balke's Big Curio store.
Or, that partly accounts for the
heavy trade; the fact that plumes of
the highest quality are sold there
cheaper than anywhere else has also
much to- do with it.
In nearly every case the purchaser
at the Big Curio store says after the
deal has been concluded that the
the best. They have been elsewhere
Now and then a resident of the east
expresses wonder that the plumes are
no cheaper here, in the home of the
ostrich, than they are in New York
That might easily be so but the
plumes are not the kind found in the
average shop in New York. They, are
the African plumes while these are
the Arizona plumes.
A recent report by the United
States government based upon an ex-
pensive and exhaustive investigation
of the subject finds that the Arizona
ostrich feathers are the best i'm the
world. They excel not only in glossi-
ness and texture but in every quality
of the plume.
These high grade plumes have al
ways been sold by the Big Curio
store cheaper than anywhere else.
They are still cheaper now in the cut
price sale

KENTUcKIAN's SCRAP WITH AN
EAGLE.

HOsier and Hughes Horn had most
thrilling experience with a large eagle
Sunday afternoon at their home on the
Dry Branch pike. about five miles from
town. They had gone to the pasture TO
drive up the sheep for the night and
were astOnished to find the eagle on
the carcass of a lamb, which it had ev-
identity killed. The bird was so large
that they were afraid TO modest it and
started the flock of sheep toward the
barn, but the eagle seemed to resent
the taking away Of his quarry. He
flew over the flock OF sheep several
times before alighting among them
Then he would rise and fly toward
the men, sometimes only four or five
feet above them. When this had Oc-
CURED some four or five times, the
eagle showing very plainly that he did
not intend to let the flock of sheep go
without fight. the young men hurried
to the house and secured a shotgun On
their temperance in the pasture the
eagle with a shrill cry rose in the air
and darted toward them, when Hosier
fired and the king of the air fell dead
at his feet

KEEP MONEY AT HOME.

editorial Arizona Democrat 21st. 1911)
The Occidental Life Insurance Company
of Arizona is peculiarly home institution
and is Justly entitled to the undivided sup
port of the people of Arizona. This cor
poration is utilizing the funds secured
through its business in developing Arizona,
and is the only corporation of its kind doing
business in the territory The people as a
rule are prone to send their money abroad
for investment Many Phoenix people, end,
in fact, people throughout the territory,
send to Los Angeles and other cities for
their dry goods, clothing, furniture etc.
The real truth of the matter is they could
secure just as good goods in Phoenix as
they buy in those Cities and just as cheap.
We have the finest dry goods establish
ments, clothing stores and furniture en-
poriums in the southwest. The Doris
Heyman furniture establishment has few
equals, if any, on the coast. This is true as
regards dry goods. The New York and
Boston stores, and the Goldwater Bros, are
all first-class. This, too, is true of our
clothing houses. Goldberg Bros the Hub
and the McDougall- Cassou establishments
are all first class, and the prices are reas-
enable.
Then why send to Los Angeles for your
goods? These men all pay taxes in Phoenix
and contribute in every way to it's upbuild-
ing and it is a crime to send your money to
Los Angeles or any other outside city for
things you can purchase at home
Now this same rule applies to the life in
surance business. The Occidental is a
Phoenix an Arizona institution. It is
honest, is fair in it's dealings, and it is en-
titled to the entire insurance business of
this city and territory.

HOLD RAILWAY FOR WRECK
Pennsylvania Must Answer for the
Martins Creek Disaster

Trenton, N. j., June 1.-THE Penn.
sylyania railroad was held respon-
sible by the Public Utilities Commits
sion of the state here yesterday for
the Martins Greek wreck of April 20
in which IL persons were killed and
1913 others injured, when a train bear
ing a party of school teachers from
Syracuse, N. " to Washington, was
derailed and burned.
The wreck occurred on the Belvi-
dere. division, six miles from Easton,
Penn. 1t has been the subject of
several Investigations, the Interstate
Commerce commission cooperating
with the New Jersey authorities in
part of the inquiry.
The railway is held responsible on
the ground that its section men were
repairing the tracks at the curve
where the wreck occurred, and on
the further contention that no warn
ing flags were placed, the engineer of
the special having been allowed to
run on the curve at full speed
