called to the habit of holding her up quired she went to the yards of the Phoenix Wood and Coal company where she picked out Calderon and Ybarri. The officer could only testify that he had arrested the men. For the defense there could be only a denial. Both men said that they had never seen the little girl until the time of their arrest
 Justice Johnstone said that though there was no doubt that the little girl had testified to what she had believed to be true and she had given her testi- mony in an impressive manner the evil dence was not sufficient to warrant a conviction and the defendants would pe discharged.
 Calderon sat through the proceed ings like a man who had been peeved and after his discharge he asked where he would go to get his per diem for the several days he had spent in jail He was informed that Deputy Olea was the custodian of the prisoners per diem fund
 The trial brought out a funny fam fly relationship. Caderon is the hus- band of the divorced wife of man named Ybarri, the father of the youth arrested with Calderon. Ybarri and all his children are living with Calderon and his wife and they are all appar- ently happy Ybarri was in court, as vigorous a partisan of Calderon as was present

Member of Upper House of First State Legislature Succumbs to Attack of Heart Failure at Cotton, California

Frederick William Vessel, senator from Yuma county in the first state legislature of Arizona, died at the home of his Wifes parents at Col ton, California, yesterday, according to telegraphic advices received from there by Chairman Winsor of the land commission and Governor Hunt. The immediate cause of his death was heart failure. Until shortly be- fore the meetings of the second spe- cial session of the state legislature, Senator Vessel had been q resident of Yuma county for many years. However, he had made all arrange ments to move and was at Cotton when the special sessions were called last year and was forced to return land represent his former fellow Yumaites again, in the legislature. He left Phoenix along in June of 1913.
 During his residence in Yuma county he was among the most prominent citizens. He was a man who made friends easily and when q friend was once made he never lost his friendship. He was justice of the peace in Yuan city for years and also served as county superintendent Of schools, being largely responsible for the splendid condition of the schools of that county before state hood In the first state election he stood for state senator and was nominated and elected by a large majority.
 In the senate he early distinguish ed himself as a hard worker and held membership upon many i'm portant committees among which were style, revision and compilation, enrolling and 'engrossing, mining. corporations, public lands, education and public institutions, printing and clerks and appropriations. He was chairman of the enrolling and en- crossing committee, one of the most important committees of the senate
 During the first session of the legislature he succeeded in securing the passage of the present Arizona teachers pension law, one of the first pieces of legislation of it's kind in the entire county. He was the author of the bill and worked insis- tently for its passage. Under its provisions teachers in Arizona who have taught twenty-five years are entitled and receive a pension from the state of $600 per annum.
 Fred w. Vessel was born in Mississippi but early came with his parents to California. He graduated from the Placerville. Cal, academy and among other things he taught school for several sessions This is what endeared him to the cause of the school teachers of the state when he arrived at a position where he could do them and their cause a measure of the justice he deemed they deserved.
 He was prospector merchant rancher and real estate agent among his other activities and studied law at one time. Such an experience
 was of great benefit to him in his career as legislator He was

 of their married life. He will bt missed from among his many friends l As a mark of respect to the dea(

MEXICAN JAIL HOLD PEDRO {.
Former Phoenix Citizen Writes Friends That He Has Been Having More Trouble With the Federal Government

A vail from that stormy petrel, Ped TO G. de la Lama was received yester- day by Deputy Sheriff Olea, sent from a jail at Allende Mexico on April 10. He had, he wrote, incurred the dis favor of the federals among whom he had been living the most of the time since his return to Mexico from Phoe- nix
 Allende is a small place not far from Vera Cruz and really a suburb of that city. De la Lama had been publishing a, newspaper there but his plant was confiscated last January. His letter to Olea does not state why the govern ment took possession of it but from certain. remarks it is supposed that de Ia Lama advocated intervention. He said in his letter that a majority of the people of Vera Cruz favored inter vention but they did not have news papers in which to express their views and to be confiscated. De la Lama wrote that early in April he was in a cafe talking to an American physician. The nature of their conversation was not described but it is thought by friends of de la Lama here that he was boasting of his American citizenship.
 Four soldiers approached and told him he was under arrest Like a good American he demanded to see the war rant and when they sought to take him without a warrant he made such vigorous resistance that they left but soon returned with fifteen more sol , diers
 Again de Ia Lama fought for his freedom but the fact that his letter was written from a jail leads to the belief that he Host out
 The letter was evidently smuggled out of jail by a trusty It was sent in two envelopes, the outer one having the appearance of having been exam ined. De Ia Lama said that he first applied to United States Consul Cana da at Vera Cruz who communicated with the state department from which nothing was heard About that time the state department had weightier matters on hand
 Hunger is said to quicken faculties and at the end of the fifth day without food de Ia Lama thought of his Ari- Zona friends. MT Oleo is asked to
 bring the case of the writer to the at tention of Governor Hunt and Repre- sentative Hayden.
 The letter was written more than a week before the taking of Vera Cruz by the Americans. It is probable, that if their jurisdiction extends as far as Allende, de la Lama is now free. This is the third time he has been in jail since his return to Mexico about two years ago

SENIOR PLAY
 BIC TASK IF
 H. 5. PLAYERS
House of Rimmon" Name of Difficult Production to Be Staged by Graduating Class; Is Most Pretenti- ous Thespian Effort

Best and most pretentious of all high school plays is the coming senior effort "The House Of Rim mon," to be presented on the evening of May at the auditorium. That the graduating class will handle the difficult piece in a masterly fashion is assured by over two months Of training, rehearsals having occupied the cast almost nightly since Janu- ary Now that the date approaches, Director Colodny is rehearsing his players night and morning.
 "The House of Rimmon,' by Hen ry Van Dyke, is perhaps the most difficult play ever attempted by a high school class. It is not a light piece of work by any means.
 Preparations for the play have in cuded the engagement of a scenic artist, Will Seeley, of the Empress, to paint the drops and things. Fischer, of Los Angeles, is to supply in rent alone considerably over $100.
 Ulrich Thalheimer is the busy man of the company. Not only the busi- ness management. but the leading part falls to him. He handles the box office and the role of Naaman. Leading woman players are Nancy Lee Heard and Jessie Meyer, who will essay roles of unusual intricacy. One of the several features is the oriental ballet of high school girls. Fitting in neatly with the semi oriental character of the play, this ballet will present a pleasing addi- ton to the production.
 The high school orchestra is work ing on the program, for the overture, incidental music and the ballet.
 Not since last years senior play has anything like "Rimmon' been attempted here. Several catchy lit tie plays have been presented, the latest yet lingering in the memories of the students and the public. It was Prof. C. L. Michael's play, "The Country Boy at College" presented Friday, April IT.
 Many Friday night features during the first weeks in May make it i'm possible to put the senior play down on the commencement week pro- gram.

81 itself an earthquake is 4 sign OF
the end Of the Age, but that the prey
aIence Of earthquakes since the begin
ming of the twentieth century properly
enough attracted his attention to what
the Scriptures say upon this subject
His text As a part OF the Masters de-
scription OF the trouble 10 ON upon
the world Id the close Of this Gospel
Age, preparatory to the Inauguration
OF the Millennium,
The Master vas answering q qles-
ton asked BY His disciples respecting
the signs which would mark the CON
clusionyof the Age. In the context He
had replied that they might expect to
hear of wars and turnults, but that
they were not to be terrified: for such
things would not indicate that the
end was near. Then, mentioning the
events to be expected at the close of
the Age-earthquakes. famines, pesti-
lences, etc.-He also declared that His
disciples would suffer persecution In
the synagogues, churches, etc, for His
sake and the Truths sake.

Our Adventist friends hare also been
calling attention to Scriptures predict
ing great tribulation upon the world
In the very near future. The Pastor
pointed out the wide difference be-
tween his Views and theirs. Their mes
sage Is that the commissions of nature
now due will result In "a wreck OF

utter destruction OF humanity and the
reduction OF earth to a mass Of elm

On the contrary, he quoted Scriptures
to- prove that athe, earth abideth for
ever; that cold and heat, summer and
winter, will continue al long as the
earth abideth; and that God made not
the earth in vain"
Il was then demonstrated from Scrip.
ture that the fire of this Day OF the
Lord will be symbolic, Just sas the fery
trials that have tried the Church
throughout this Age have not general
~ consisted OF literal fire. The 1ery
troubles coming upon the world Will
overthrow present institutions and en-.
