Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus on Novel Grounds - Pinkley Bill Almost lnitiated-Par- don Board Meeting

Another effort was begun yesterday 10 save Rodriguez, Perez, Chavez and Peralta, the four men sentenced to hang at Florence, Friuay.
 Application for writs Of ha5eas cor pus were filed by MessTs. Struckmeyer and Jenckes in the superior court of PinaI county and in the federal court The application is based on two grounds the most novel of which is tha; the condemned have been twice in jeopardy.
 The second time according to the att torneys for the applicants is when the prisoners were granted reprieves with out having made request for them.
 IT is also claimed that the warrant on the Judgment IS defective in form. No application was made in behalf of VillaloDos. for the reason that his ap- peal had already been filed in the su- premc court.
 owing to the absence from the state of Judge otis J Baughn of Pinal cOun- tvit will be necessary for the governor to designate judge to hear the ap- pIication in the superior court. Many ot the judges of the state. it was stated last night are away and q number of others are disqualified.

 Petitions bearing approximately 4000 signatures in favor of substituting life imprisonment for the death penalty were filed late yesterday afternoon at the office of the secretary of state The number of names required to initiate the measure is 51o1. and il was stated at the governors office where the pe- titious were collected ard checked over before being filed that a sufficient number to place the measure on the ballot at the next general election would probably be filed today. Some goo names had been filed in favor of the proposed bill prior to the petitions filed yesterday, so that the advocates of the measure have less than 1000 names to secure.

COLLARS OF WHITE SATIN
Make Charming Addition, Especially
to the Gown Made Up of Dark
Blue Serge.

There is already much speculation
about the joining of soft silks and far
ing circular skirts for spring, but if
both remain in fashion after the
French openings, which are scheduled
for February as usual, no doubt the
designers will find some good way out
of the difficulty. Much can be done
by borrowing from the ideas used in
evening gowns made of silk net, which
now have faring five and six-yard
skirts held out by thick bullion cord.
A cable cord of velvet or silk can re-
place this one on silk street skirts.
The advance fashions in dark blue
show the usage of white satin in the
way of wrinkled stock collars and
wide turnover cuffs, in wide belts of
white kid with pearl buckles, and even
in white satin hens when the nature
of the frock allows one. This is a
good idea for the woman to assimilate
if she is given to wearing dark blue.
1t would brighten that serge frock she
has now and make it a bit different
from what it has been.

FOOTWEAR MUST BE RIGHT

almost every gown demands harmonic

One of the newest ideas introduced
upon smart slippers for afternoon and

form. There are also jeweled ankle
straps-not the stiff metal bands Of

black and white however, makes
white stockings the correct color to
wear with black shoes.
