Aqua PRIETA HAS
PROBLEM IN LEPER
In Advanced Stage Of the Disease, VAL
denegrO Had Crossed to American
Side, and Was Sent Back


Douglas, Ariz., Sept. .25.-After hav-
ing been summari1y arrested, then given
into the charge of MeXicaS officials
upon his declaration that he would re-
turn to Sonora without awaiting the
course Of deportation proceedings, Jose
Valdenegro. Mexican, aged 81 years
and leper. is confined in a lonely hut
in Aqua Prieta. Standing near the
door is a guard armed with a rifle, who
serves the dual purpose Of warning
passersby away from the hovel and Of
keeping the sufferer prisoner. The
man is in such an advanced stage of
the disease that a large portion of the
back of his head has been eaten away,
his hands are partially rotted off and
his left hip has a deep hole eaten in it.
Valednegro has. according to his own
statement, suffered from the disease
for the last four years. He has resid-
ed during the greater part of that time
in Cabullona, a small town 20 miles
south of Douglas. Recently, becoming
frightened by the revolutionary activ-
ity, he and his mother came to Aqua
Prieta and crossed the line without go
ing to the immigration station. The
man was placed under arrest by in
spector Clifford W. Perkins and con-
scented to go back to Sonora without
the preliminary of arrest and examina-
ton. He is being ministered to by his
mother.

Pethick Lawrence, barrister, and
his wife, joint editors of Votes
for Women, and Mrs, Emmeline
Pankhurst, today were sentenced
to nine months in the peniten-
tiary without hard labor.
The charge against them was
= conspiracy in connection with the
great. suffragette window smash
in champaign of the beginning of
the year.
The three leaders of the mill
tant suffragettes never expected
to be convicted. When the Jury
brought in the verdict of guilty
with a recommendation of mer-
cy," Mrs. Pankhurst covered her
face. with her hands.
"God help US; Our cause is just"
she cried.
Lawrence defended himself,
his wife, and Mrs. Pankhurst.
His chief point was an attack
on the motives of the government
for prosecuting them under the
penal code.
All three of the defendants CON
sidered their offenses of a Peliti-
cal nature, and wished to stand
trial as political prisoners.
Mrs. Pankhurst made an i'm

fire APPARATUS WAS
FORMALLY ACCEPTED
Has Been Taken Over For
the City

Fire Chief w. P. Macarthur has for
mally accepted the new auto fire APP
paratus for the city of Americas, the
transfer having been made yesterday.
The apparatus has been here for
some time on probation, as it were, as
the contract made by the city with
the manufacturing firm which sold
the auto truck to the city made pro-
vision for the satisfactory demonstra-
ton of the ability of the machine 20
do the requisite work before it should
be accepted
| Forty days was the time stipulated
| in the contract, if that much time
/ should be required for the demonstra-
/ ton of the machine and the need of
| the services of the expert who was
sent out from the factory to operate
the machine here and to teach the
men on the local force how to manip
ulate it. This period of forty days has
! not yet elapsed, but the machine was
, accepted by Chief Macarthur, on con-
dition that the guarantee going with
1 it should remain in force during the
. entire remaining portion of the time
J called for in the contract.
} Already the men of the local fire
/ fighting force have become proficient
in handling the. new apparatus, SO
! that Engineer Baker who was sent
out from the office of the manufacture
ing company, has already taken I'D
work elsewhere, The new apparatus
is working admirably, and there is
no doubt in the mind of Chief MrAr-
thur that it will make good.

seen on the stage in many a day.
The cry by all of the big theatrical
producers was; I'VE want a piece with
story, the public are sick of scenery
and lot of girls with one or two
slip-stick comedians to fill in the
chinks between, and called musical
comedy" And in this they were right
