DOUGLAS Providing For Refugees


 Bishop O. P. Brown arrived yes tcrday from Fl Paso. Tn an inter view last night he stated that his mission here was to make arrange ments and prepare for the coming of the Mormon colonists from Co., lonia Moreles, Colonia Oaxaea and San Jose to this side of the line. He stated that all women and children will eventually come to Douglas. and for the purpose of anticipating their wants and needs he was here to take up the matter with the prop CT authorities.
 A conference was held at the Gadsden last night. participated in by Mayor Baker. Consul Dye. Bishop Brown and ether Mormon leaders. for the purpose of settling upon a location and providing for the re- auiremcnts of the refugees.
 The matter of shelter has been taken up. and the war department has notified Mir. Brown to telegraph the number of tents which will be needed. stating that they would be forwarded immediately. Mir. Brown last night rcquisitioned 100 for ship ment here.
 No Preference As To Jail
 Teadoro Rodriguez and Ramon Vasquez will remain in jail here un- til United States judge has been appointed and an order given for their transfer to the jurisdiction of the courts of Texas for trial upon conspiracy charge. This was the statement of United States Attorney Joseph E. Morrison yesterday, made during brief visit here on personal business.
 The prisoners are in jail here and have been for several weeks. They arc to be tried before the United States court in Fl Paso. Even with an order of that court. they cannot be removed from Arizona. it is stated by competent attorneys. To obey such an order would render the off cers guilty of technical kidnapping. In the meantime. as there is no fed eral judge iR Arizona and no i'm mediate prospect of one being ap- pointed. the proposition is hard one.
 Separate Loving Pair

Fourth District.


The Fourth California presented this
question: Under the state law the dele
CATION, two from each district, was
elected on a general ticket, in a group
of twenty-six. Each delegate might
either express his presidential prefer
ence or agree to vote for the presiden-
tial candidate receiving the highest
number in the state. In the Fourth
district the two candidates from that
district on the Taft ticket expressed
a preference for Taft, but did not
agree to vote for the candidates hay-
Ing the highest state vote. These Taft
delegates in the Fourth district re-
ceived a majority of 200 more than
the Roosevelt delegates in that dis
trict The national call forbade any
law or the acceptance of any law
which prevented the election of dele
gates by districts. In other words, the
call of the national convention was at
variance with the state law. The state
law sought to enforce the state unit
rule and required the whole twenty
six delegates to be voted for all over
the state, assigning two to each dis
trict on the ticket to abide the state
wide election, while the Republican
national convention has insisted upon
the unit of the district since 1880 That
has been the party law. This eonven-

In the Fifth Arkansas the question
was one of the identity of one faction
or the other as the Republican party.
This convention followed the example
of the convention of 1908 in holding
that what was known as the Redding
faction was not the Republican party,
that it was a defunct organization and
had only acquired life at the end Of
each four years for the purpose of
using it in the national convention.

THE OPEN MOUTH.

Causes That Induce II When We Are

Why do we open our mouths when
intently listening?
There are three causes. entirely In.

passageway called the eustachian tube,
connecting the back of the throat and
the middle ear. the part behind the
drum. When intently listening we

way they reach the drum and re-en-
force the sound waves that come
through the natural channel. the outer

In concentrated attention the mind is
fully engrOssed in the one subject. and
it loses control over voluntary muscles
that are not directly affected by the
subject or the process involved In the
motor activity that accompanies men
tai activity. The muscles are relaxed,
the lower jaw drops. and this opens
the mouth.
The third cause is referable to alta
vism. or the tendency to return In form
or action to an early type. Early man,
like the animals, was urged to action
by the fundamental instincts, self
preservation and race preservation
His two aims were to secure food and
avoid or DESTROY enemies. Like the
animals, when his attention was at

Long Argument Over
Admitting Conversation

Colonel Rosser contended that
Grace's statement to his wife in the
presence of Dr. Goldsmith should be
excluded because she had denied at that
time having shot him. He cited sew
eral cases in the Georgia Reporter
to uphold his point
The question hung upon the point
that Graces statement to his wife was
a mere charge, not sustained by his
wife's acquiescence, either by words or
silence and he contended that her abb
solute denial of the charge rendered it
inadmissibe as evidence A long ar
gument, with the jury absent, ensued.
Why, if a mere charge Of suspicion,

her return to Atlanta on receipt of the
news that Grace was shot was pro-
duced again. Mr.. Rosser called it a

he never shot sparrows and knew little
about guns He said Mrs. Grace gave
him the little pistol in the presence Of
his mother and several others, with no
effort at concealment, saying it made
her satchel too fun. 1t was wrapped
up in handkerchief The boy was
evidently very antagonistic toward Mrs.
Grace and whenever an opportunity
arose he made his answers as unfavor-
able toward her as the facts permitted.
Whether or not Mrs Grace's hand
satche was really too fun to hold the
pistol easily became the basis of dts
pute Mr. Rosser trying to draw from
the boy his admission that he did not
know what was in the satchel If ii
could be shown that there was room in
the bag for the pistol the state would
use the fact that Mrs. Grace got rid Of
the weapon to show that she feared ar
rest and thought the pistol would be
evidence against her, though it had not
been fired
The boy said he returned to Atlanta
with Mrs Grace and his mother and
went to the police station.
