HIS MAN
 EVEN UNTO BOTTOM
 OF TEN FOOT WELL
Constable Thomas Has Ex- citing Chase but
 Makes Catch
FALLS UPON MEXICAN

While searching for FeliH Gomez, a well known. Zaccctecas character last night about s olock Officer c. N Thomas. fell into a well ten feet deep in the MeXian suburb and landed or the man for whom he was looking Gomez had hid@en in the we'll before the officer alarm was sent in The Of ficer was not hurt by the fall. as inc landed on the Mexican, who was stunned by the impact as well as by his unexpected discovery.
 At eight o'clock Officer Thomas re eiyed @ telephone call for an officer and hiIing a buggy, went to the scene of the trouble, picking up Deputy Shcr ifI Jack Boliu on the way. The repor; tbat resulted in the officers going tc Zacatecas was that Gomez had bru tally attacked his wife
 Pursues His Man
 When the officers arrived at Gomez house the man had escaped and they gave first aid 10 the injured woman who had been severely beaten about the head ard face, apparently, with some blunt instrument. The officers then started out to hunt Gomez With out any previous intimation Officer Thomas walked into the half-con cealed well and a yell was emitted from the mouth of the opening, accom- panied by a splashing of water. Gomez was the owner of the yell and the officer and the prisoner struggled iu the four feet of water. The Mexican was so dazed, however, that he of fered no resistance and, the officer had no trouble in making him a prisoner
 Bolin to Rescue
 The officer and the prisoner were hauled out of the we'll by Deputy Sheriff Bolin and Gomez was brought to the city and placed in jail The prisoners wife will appear in coUr; this morning and file a conbfaist against her husband. Under tho laws or Arizona the charge will con stitUte a felony
 The officers escape from serious injury was remarkable and but fOI the fact that striking the body Of the Mexican broke the force of his de scent he would have been seriously in jured The Mexican was not at the bottom Of the well but was resting his feet in holes in the walls of the we'll The officer. however, did es Berience a sensation of surprise when he stumbled into the we'll and located the man for whom he was searching
 Gomez is known among the MeXt cans as the King Of Zacatecas His attack on his wife was the result oi q domestic quarrel.

BATTLE ROYAL
 |S IN TAPES
Taft and Roosevelt Forces Line Up for Fray and Pull Wires for
 Advantage
PRIMARY QUESTION

An ominous quiet in republican cir cles indicates that all of the political goings-on are going on under the surface, and let no one suppose that either the Taft or Roosevelt support CTS are al fatigue, lat rest, or are lying on their arms. Both sides are maneuyering for position.
 The result of the primary in Illi- nois has given the Roosevelt men in the state new enthusiasm, and the Taft supporters admit that the Illi- nois election makes it a certainty that he will go into the convention and submit a bid. For awaile Taft followers in the district beguiled themselves with the hope that from the way the colonels dog was being kicked around. that the animal would be dead by convention time The thought has perished.
 Whatever the ROoseveltians gain by undermining the Taft regulars in the county organizations. they have then to face the fact that the head and front of republican political au- thority in the state lies with the
 
 The significance Of this is that Chairman Hubbell is prO-Taft, or at least that is the assertion of Taft men. If this fact is advantageous to the Taft crowd. it is so because of the power of the position to name the weapons of the game, as well as the date of the fight.
 Method May Determine
 If there are enough practical poli- ticians in the Roosevelt crowd to checkmate the practicaHty of the regulars. Roosevelt men will fare as well as the Taft men, but it is doubtful if the Roosevelt wing of the party is as strong as the Taft sec ton in this respect. The prcsiden. tial primary has been generally re garded as the kind of arrangement that would again establish the sum. mer capital near a certain body of water not far distant from Sagamore Hill. Party conventions, on the oth- CT hand, are where Taft has pluckC0 the majority of his daisies and jim dandy majorities.
 The importance of the date of choosing delegates is apparent. rolling stone gathers no moss. but rolling boom gathers strength 1T the selection of delegates to the re. publican national convention is de. layed, there is a chance that the Roosevelt boom will be biffed and bange6 into stationary immObility, and thus create the possibility of a nat ural death for Rcosevelt's Arizona loom. A political boom stands in a relative position to a monkey in a jungle. If there are trees enough close enough, his progress is limited only by the nimbleness of the caudal appendage; but if the trees are few and far apart, the monkey becomes stranded in the tall but scarcce tim. ber Thus, if the selection of dele gates can be deferred or jollied along until the latter part Of May or the first of JGne. the chance of the boom hurdling the open space is Iessened
 Would Fire Enthusiasm
 Also, relative to the importance of the date of the selection of national convention delegates, heroic methods are used by practical politicians to fight heroes. The Rooseyeltian way of campaigning is to start forest fire of enthusiasm, and the way to . fight forest or prairie fires Is 10 ere
