 TUCSON, Feb. 23-Holding invio- late the sacred secret of the location of the grave of the great Apache chief, Cochise, his blood brother Captain Thomas Jefferson Jeffords, the famous pioneer Indian trader and United States military courier, passed away at his ranch at owls Head, 35 miles north of Tucson late Wednes- day evening at the advanced age of S3 years. according to a dispatch received last evening by Victor Morajeska, his friend of late years and executor.
 The dispatch did not state the cause of his death, but it is supposed to have been some sudden sickness, as three weeks ago. when the grizz- led old Indian fighter was in the city to meet State Historian Thomas Far ish, he looked well and hearty. Some of his friends thought last evening that he might have been suddenly stricken with pneumonia.
 On receipt of the dispatch at the Orndorff hotel MT Moraieska ac- Companied by Arturo Carillo, under taker of the Tucson Undertaking company, left for the ranch to pre- pare the body for burial The re- mains will be brought back to the city, and the funeral will be held later under the auspices of the Ari- zona Pioneers society of which Cap tain Jeffords was a member
 The news of the death of the vet eran Arizonian caused universal re- gret among his many friends and comrades of earlier days, when it be- came known last evening that he had died at his ranch. Although of late years he had been much of a recluse, still his friends had never forgotten him, and many had seen him on his last two or three visits during the past few months.
 Whatever else Captain Jeffords will be remembered by perhaps the most interesting feature of his western life was his long and steadfast friendship for the great Apache chief Cochise. The two were blood brothers.' made SO by the mystic ceremony of the interminglinG and oupplllS OI DlooI II Olll t.itil OliItI arms
 This sacred friendship Captain Jeff lords never violated and he remained in the confidence of the famous Apache warrior until the day of Co., chise's death Captain Jeffords was the only white man intrusted with the mysterious secret of the exact location of the great chiefs grave, and to his dying day he never re- vealed it. and when his life ebbed the secret died with him.
 As a pledge of his friendship and affection the great chief presented Captain Jeffords with a double-bar- relied shotgun which he prized and valued, just as he would an arm or leg, as he said, and in his will he bequeathed this historic weapon to Morajeska, his friend and neighbor of late years and his executor. He has one brother, John Jeffords, now in the Soldiers Home at SaWtelle near Los Angeles. The entire property left by Captain Jeffords, consisting of the Owls Head ranch and person. al property, valued at less than 5000,

PRESERVING WOOD IN SUGAR
New Method Discovered by Ens'ish
Scientist Has Been Tested With
Satisfactory Results.

Preserving wood in sugar. actually
candying it as fruit and flowers are
candied, is the newest process of treat
ing timber, just taken from the forest
to prevent dry rot and to bring about
rapid seasoning. The new method
was discovered by an English scien'
fist and has since been tested with
highly satisfactory results. Woods OF
all kinds and of all degrees OF density
have been subjected to test, and the
sugar process has been found not only
efficient but less expensive thai many
older methods for the same purpose
The wood is placed in tanks filled
with solution of sugar or saccharine
products, the character of the solu-
ton differing for the various woods.
The tanks are heated and the wood
is allowed to remain for a stated
length of time, which also varies with
the kind and size of timber treated.
The whole process, including the dry
ing, takes but a few days and the
cost, as stated, Is very low.

Sow More Wheat

Lynchburg, Va, 1914.-In view
of the conditions brought about
by the European war there will
naturally be an increasing demand
for wheat and other grains. The
price already advanced shows
every indication of further increase,
and presents a splendid oppor-
tunity for farmers in this section to
profit through the planting of more
wheat this fall.
Many of the European wheat
fields will be idle because of the
fact that the men are at the front
fighting.
We are writingyou as merhcant
to ask your cooperation in this i'm
portant matter. We are sure you
can help by calling the attention OF
farmers among your customers to
the soaring price of wheat and
other grains and to the strong
probability of further advance. We
ask that you urge them to profit
by the present conditions and i'm
rove the opportunity by planting
of more wheat, corn and other'grain
All indications seem to point to
grain as the money crop for the
farmer during the coming year.
Yours very truly,
Lvnchburg Chamber of Commerce

Life Insurance Companies
THEY ARE CLOSELY OBSERVING
PUBLIC HEALTH CONDITIONS

An examining physician for one
of the prominent Life Insurance
Companies, in an interview on the
subject, made the astonishing
statement that one reason why so
many applicants for insurance are
rejected is because kidney trouble
is so common to the American
people, and the large majority Of
those whose applications are declined
do not even suspect that they have
the disease.
According to this it would seem
that a medicine for the kidneys,
possessing real healing and curative
properties, would be Kissing to
thousands.
Or. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton,
N. Y, who prepare DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the we'll known kid
ney. liver and bladder remedy,
claim that judging from evidence
received from druggists everywhere,
who are constantly in touch with
their customers, and also indis-
putable proof in the form of CRATE
full testimonial letters from thous-
ands of reliable citizens, this
preparation is remarkably cuccess-
full in sickness caused by kidney
and bladder troubles. Every in
teresting statement they receive
regarding Swamp-Root is investi-
gated and no testimonial is pub
lished unless the party who sends
it it reported of good character.
They have on file many sworn
statements of recoveries in the
most distressing cases. They state
that DR.. Kilmer,s Swam-Root is
mild and gentle in its action and
its healing influence is soon noticed
in most cases.

compound and DR.. Kilmer. & Co,
