SENATOR ASHURS7 EAULTLESSLY
 ALTERED

NEW YORK, April 26-The Wash ington correspondent of the New York Times says: Of the TOUT new senators from Arizona. and New Mexico who have presented themselves at the capi- tol, one made a deep impression. That one is Henry F. Ashurst of Arizona, and it was his manners that did it. Though Mr. Ashurst is a Democrat from the far west, he was welcomed by the old guard as new Chester field.
 He was attired faultlessly in a be- coming frock coat and striped pants yes, they were pants-with only a broad black sombrero in honor of the west. His escort was tastefully at tired in blue with sombrreo of the tan, rough rider variety.
 Then the senators saw the fine shad- ings of Mr. Ashurst's manner. To the older members he bowed till his frock coat was at right angles to his trousers; to the venerable Senator Cullom he bowed even lower than that But to the young senators his greet ing was more virile; no lowing just a giants grasp and a long look into the eyes, man fashion.

 Edmond Lafave, was indicted for grand larceny, it being alleged that he stole a horse in Clifton. The de- fendant is at present in Tucson with his mother, and is reported to be in poor health.
 The grand jury made a second re- port Friday at noon returning four additional indictments against J. M. Erickson, of Morenci, two of which were for alleged obtaining money under false pretenses. It is charged in these indictments that Erickson represented himself to be an attorney at-law and accepted fees for which no legal services were performed.
 The grand jury also returned in- dictments against Estaven Juarez, Maximo Fernicia and Celso Losano on felony charges.
 The court has set Tuesday May 7th as the time for calling the trial calei- dar, and the setting of criminal and civil cases for trial.

Miami. Arizona, April 27.-Messrs. Woods and Kinsey, the contractors of the new road between Miami and Ray Hayden districts, were in Miami this week. They report work on the new road progressing very satisfactory. As vet the exact date of the completion of the route has not been announced but the road is in fair shape at the present time. In fact many who have made the trip over the new and the old roads by way Of Globe state that the new road with the exception of several places is the better of the two and when completed, will be as good as any in the county.
 Messrs Woods and Kinsey left yes terday for their camp with two tons of supplies composed of cement and pipe which will be used in making culyertS.

hustle on'' and the way the Senators promptly busted themselves in investi- gating the Titanic disaster, has won the applause of people everywhere
 There has been no such intensity of feeling known in Washington since the day of the assassination of Pres1- dent Mckinley as that produced 5y the great horror of the sea. The cor respondent of the Era sat close to the great Marconi, inventor of wireless telegraphy, met and converSed with members of the Titanic crew, and had ample opportunity to observe J.
 Bruce Ismay, who has become the cen tre fiugre of attention throughout the world, and inasmuch as it has not been published before, it may be told to the readers of this paper, that the palm of the hand of this British pluto crat appears to verify his claim that he pulled an oar of the lifeboat in
 which he escaped. 1Smay IS not typically English. His complexion Is so dark as to be almost swarthy, and his features and black curly hair, causes him to resemble more the Hebrew, from which race he is said to come, than the English, and in the early period of his arrival in this country, he wore the look of nerve wrecked man making supreme eff fort to put up a bold front. On board the Carpathia he occupied one of the choicest state rooms, while women slept upon the floors of the ship. In New York and Washington ISmay has commanded the highest price atten- tion, and his money has bought the ! pensive hotels. While the feeling of prejudice against the man as 1ndicat- ed by the daily press has not been overStated, yet to the credit Of the American people it can be truthfully
 said that nowhere was any d1ScourteSy shown Ismay and the White Star of ficials, and judgment in every quarter l was held in abeyance pending the out
 come of the great investigation which
 the Senate has so effectively carried
 on. The wreck of the Titanic has
 brought it's sorrows and grief strong ly home to the people of Washington and the entire eastern portion or the country, where friends and families o1 the unfortunate ones who perished have been bowed down with gr1et. Memorial exercises nave been helo
 everywhere and the nation has pas
 sively waited the relating Of the story
 as it has been brought out by the
 Senators. And while little has ol can be done to alleviate the condition
 produced by the tremendous catas
 trophe that has shocked the world ,I yet it is apparent that every eHort l: !, being made to arrive at the facts ant to utilize them in framing Legislation that will prevent recurrence Of sucf a thing again upon the high seas.
 There is no attempt to conceal tht fact that the situation in regard tt

AN ORCHARD THAT is MAKING ITS

The following story of wealth made
by means Of an apple orchard Is told In
the current issue OF Farm and Ftreside
I'm a little Vermont town, lying about
six miles out from the beautiful city of
Burlington. on Lake Champlain. is an
orchard that Is making its owner both
fame and fortune. This orchard was set
out nearly a half-century ago by the pres
ent owners father. and. although tho
trees grew to large size. the orchard was
not considered n very paying investment
a few years ago the present owner came
to- believe that there was money in the
old orchard. and that. in order to get
1t out. the trees must be cultivated and
fed like any other crop. There were more
than 1900 trees. mostly Greetings with
some Baldwins and Northern Spies. The
trees were too thick for the sunlight to
penetrate them. SO the owner went
among them and cut out the poorest
The trees were pruncd, and the orchard
plowed and fortified. For fertilizer after
some experimenting and study, he used
manure from the stock-yards. and this
he had shipped him in carload lots from
the yards of Montreal Some lime was
also used. Buckwheat was sown between
TO form a mulch.
THE orchard covers one hundred acres
and something like twenty acres is now
set to young trees AS fast as one of
the old trees becomes Improbable. 1t is
blasted out and a new one set in its
place. Spraying Is done with a power

TURKEYS IN THE SPRING.

Turkeys begin to lay n little earlier in
the South than in a cold climate. When
winters are not too severe the first tur-
key eggs may be expected about the last
Of March. writes Fannie NJ. Wood Of
Bentonville. Ind, in the New York Tri-
bune Farmer Young hens begin to lay
earlier for US than the old ones. Turkey
hens when allowed to get too fat during
the winter are slow in beginning to lay
1t will soon be time to provide nests for
the turkey hens IN secluded places to en-
courage them to lay near home Boxes
and barrels turned on the side make good
nests. but they must be roomy enough
for the hon to turn and come Off without
breaking the eggs. We make a fun. thick
nest of straw In each box or barrel and
put an egg gourd or china nest egg in
each nest. The turkey hens soon discover
the nests and make use of them. Tur-
keys do not require much corn at this
season IL they have the range OF the
farm. They do better on oats at this time
than any other grain. Turkeys are busy
and on the move during the laying sea-
son. but If they are provided with suit
able nests. are fed regularly. are not wor-
ried or frightened In any way and have
plenty of water at all times they will not
be likely to give trouble by wandering
far from home and hiding their nests
After turkeys begin to lay the early
spring nights are cold In many parts Of
the country and the eggs should be re-
moved as they are laid to prevent chilling
Keep oyster shells before the turkey hens
during the laying season and there will
be no trouble with soft shelled eggs, I'M
less the hens are excessively fat. the
egg shells win be porous sometimes when
the hens are not getting enough lime
This will cause germs to die.
