GIRL, SANE EVERY EXCEPT THAT BLINDLY INFATUATED WITH A YOUNG AGO, THE JIM FOR THE INSANE, PHOENIX, TREATED.

Florence, Ariz., May 6.-Under the strange delusion that young man in Kelvin is in love with her and that the people of that place are trying to turn him against her, Julia Collis, a beautiful young English girl, less than four months over from her native land, apeared before Superior Judge Connors here and was committed to the asylum for the insane at Phoenix.
 The case of Julia Collis is one of the most pathetic that has ever aris- en in Pinal county. The girl is a striking beauty and upon every suo- ject except that of the young man for whom she has contracted violent in faluation when she was introduced to him, is as sane as anyone.
 How she chanced to drift to Kelvin so soon after emigrating to America is in itself a mystery. Soon after she arrived here and secured employment, she casually met young man. Ac- cording to his own story, he forgot her name the moment the introduction was over, although he remembered the incident

San Francisco, May 6.-Forty yachts of the Corinthian Yacht Club flew the Panama Pacific International Exposition "1915" burgee on the an ual opening cruise of the season last Sunday. The yachts attracted great deal of attention and the flying of the 1915" flag was favorably commented upon by the thousands who watched the boats skim over the bay. The burgee is the official flag of the Elk position and will be flown on the yachts of the world. President Moore this exploiting feature by flying pennant on his yacht ''Evian''. When the steamship Cleve- land entered this port it flew the Ex- position flag and the ships of many steamship lines have adopted the flag to exploit the Exposition. It reads, rP. P. I.

eryone that she was to marry the young man. She expressed the ten derest regard for him, being even more willing to recount the virtues of her intended" than a prospective bride is usually.
 The young man heard of her state ments and went to her. He asked her what she meant by spreading such stories, when they scarcely knew each other. The interview was unsatisfac- tory.
 Nor did Miss Collis cease to claim the young man as her future husband. She also charged that evetyone in the camp was endeavoring to turn him against her. Her hallucination was reported to the superior judge, who ap- pointed a commission of doctors to inquire into her sanity.
 When the doctors examined her they were convinced that her mind was sound and they declared her as sane She continued in her delusions regarding the young man and the next time she was taken to Florence. Judge Connor examined her and decided to commit her to the asylum.

MARRIED COUPLES
 GOOD FARM HANDS

The greatest source of satisfactory farm help in the west has been in the
 married couples. The employment of these solves to some extent both the domestic and farm help problem, and we wish that many more couples were available. There is an objection, how ever, to this plan of hiring married couples. It is very difficult to secure a man and a wife who are both con- petent. In many cases the one is a good servant and other a poor one. By discharging the poor one the far mer is forced to lose them both and is consequently greatly inconvenience ed. Where any farmer is fortunate enough to have satisfactory man and his wife as help on the farm, he sure should be willing to build separate house for them, give them a milch COW and a small garden spot for a garden and other conveniences to make a home for them, thus securing probably the most permanent kind of help to be obtained-Northwes Farmer, Win nipeg, Manitoba.

STATE OF OHIO ID BE
 NEXT BATTLEFIELD

Los Angeles, May 6.-The cam paign in California is hot one and will grow hotter until the 14th, when the presidential primary will be held. But the real field of battle during the next days will be Ohio, which will send forty-eight delegates to the re publican national convention. Of those forty-eight delegates, forty-two will be chosen by popular vote in the con- gressional districts. Delegates to the state convention which meets in June at Columbus to choose six delegates at large, will also be elected by pop ular vote. The large delegation ana the fact that Ohio is President Tafts own state will cause a campaign in comparison with which the one just ended in Massachusetts will apear to have been tame.

IMPORTANT NEWS TO SETTLERS WHO WISH TO IMPROVE FARMS OF THE YUMA PROJECT.

Washington, D. O., May 6.-The Secretary of the Interior has put into effect a number of important modifi- cations of the regulation governing the assignments of homestead entries within irrigation projects.
 A settler is now permitted to assign to any part of farm unit with the approval of the Project Engineer upon the filing with the local land office, of plat amended farm unit approved by the engineer with the other papers. When one-half of the irrigable area has been reclaimed the entryman can Iimake proof of reclamation without regard to the number of payments of the building charge which have been made and will receive evidence of the acceptance of such proof. Provision is made for recording mortgages which will facilitate the making of loans and at the same time protect the mon ey lenders. It is believed that the new regulations will result in a great improvement of the conditions on very many of the governments project where the settlers have been severe ly handicapped through lack of funds by reason of inability to borrow money on their lands.

dustry indicate that camphOr seed
Iings from Florida have made good
progress. but that further obscrva-
tons are necessary to settle the qucs-
ton of permanent success.
TINS Is just another Illustration OF

lie way OF producing valuable COM
modilics Anything that can be pro-
Gir"d anywhere in the country, says
'thc Jacksonville Metropolis, can be
grown in this State, and it is graft
tying to note that the attention OF
government experts is directed to this
section. If the camphor industry of
1.-THE State is properly developed, it
may be made one of the most paying,
and give employment to large num-
bcrs of people
CamphOr trees will grow well in
sandy soil, and the expense in .Av-
ing out a grove of trees wOp,d be
comparatively slight Here is al OPP
Eortunity for some of the Florida
growers to get busy.
