TO TEST ACID CONTENTS
OF PHOENIX GRAPE FRUIT

TUCSON. Nov. 29.-After testing
four sam pies of Phoenix grape fruit
for acid and finding the acid content
higher than the state or federal law
allows. Dr. Charles A Mcserve. OF the
state chemical laboratory. holds the
belief that 4 new law must be made to
fit the Arizona product. and. to arrive
at definite scientific conclusion, he
will make an exhaustive test of the
fruit.
To determine ;ho truth of his pre-
sent surmise. DR. Mc=erve will carry
an investigation. using several varie-
ties ard embracing different degrees
OF maturity and Imma. urity, testing
all swea,ed and uusweated He will
also study the effect Of holding the
fruit through periods varying from )
to weeks at ordinary temperatures to
see Just what The local fruit will stand.
The ac,d in the frui: is not harmful
but when il is prssen; the fruit is pithy
has very little juice and is almost taste
less. II this extensive test bears out
his presen; belief. action will be taken
to change both the fedora and state
law in its application to Arizona fruit.

SIMS FAILURE TO CARRY
OUT LAW CAUSES MUDOL F.:

PHOENIX. Nov. 29.-From the an.
mails Of the Stat. Penitcntiary oi Ari-
IONA may some day be compiled 4
treatise on How to Avoid Hanging
MurdereTs."
When every apparent res1urc, had
been exhausted. and it appeared that
William Faliin would have to pay
what he owes the law for killing Carl
Peterson. the prison authorities sprung
the insanity dodge. That seemed for i
time the final move. but now it Is
known that other means may be taken
TO wiggle out. 1t was said yesterday
that Governor Hunt holds the resi- gna-
ton Of Warden Sims. and in the event
that every other subterfuge fails. the
CHIEF executive may accept the said
resignation and thereby leave the pri-
son withou: head This would iuev-
itably halt the execution. as only the
warden may direct the process. 1t is a
notable fact that the state constitution
provides no assistant. deputy or vice
war den who may handle an execu-
ton.
/ The legal processes through which
the case of FaIiiu must now pass, are
about as follows:
| On the date set for converting the
| Pinal county jury. the murderer will
be brought before twelve men. who
will examine his rn.ntsl processes II
they agree he is insane. n= vii! be con
/ signed to the insane asylum. n the y
/ hold him sane, he mus be brought to
Phoenix and sentenced by a judge OF
the Maricopa county Superior Court
! On the date set at that resentrncing.
/ the insanity dodge may be worked
again, and so on, ad minimum. In
case the insanity dodge appears too
raw. other lodges NAV be executed. Z"
In fact. it is beginning to appear
that a dodge is the only thing that
can be executed at Arizona's penal
institution.
Citing Warden Sims for contempt
and incarcerating him in a county jail
next week. will react somewhat to the
benefit OF those who are opposing
hangings. For. with Sims in Jail. the
prison will be without head, ana no
one can then difect the final movements
in the life of Ramon siobos. who's
end IS scheduled for December 10

-. An oil and gas lease contained clause
lin case no well was commended within
ninety days the lease should be null and
void unless the leases should pay for the
delay at the rate of fifty cents a day
until the well was commenced" No well
was commenced and one hundred and one

payment for the delay On later default
for the same length of time, the landlord
commenced suit to cancel the lease. Four
days thereafter, the tenants rendered
sum of money sufficient to pay for the
defaulted time and sufficient to extend
the time for several months in advance:
HELD, that the cancellation of the lease
was unjust under the circumstances that
the words fifty cents a day fixed the
rate and not the times of payment; and
that payments at reasonable times for the
default of the tenants were sufficient to
preserve the lease.
