It is understood that Mrs. Wal lace. their daughter, is at present in a very delicate condition and for a time fears were expressed of her re- covery but later advices are to the ef- feet that her condition has improved.

 Man Continue Work.
 Since advices have been received that Maricopa county has not avail able funds ready to pursue the work that was intended in that county by the employment of the convicts tha. are now at work in Tombstone Canyon between here and Bisbee, an effort will be made by the board of super visors of Cochise county and County Engineer Ryan to have the men con- tinue the work on the present road at least for another month or so. The matter will be taken up with State Engineer Lamar Cobb while he is in this section of the country. All of the members of the board and the county engineer are in Fl Paso with the motorcade as is MT Cobb and the matter will be discussed with him.

Big Shows Proved That As phalt Base Oils Were Good

One thing the Exposition has done for California petroleum, is said. has been the correction of the mistaken theory that good motor oil couldn't be made from ashphalt-base crude.
 A representative of one of the big California refiners says that ever since the awards of the Exposition juries have been given wide publicity, motor ists and dealers who couldn't see any thing but Eastern oil. are coming a. round to using and advocating oil

GOODRICH COMPANY IN CHALLENGE TO PUBLIC
Big Tire Concern Offers to Turn lis Books Over to
 Public Audit Company.


 In a challenge issued to other tire manufacturers, The B. F. Goodrich Company of Akron. Ohio. declared it. self willing to throw open it's books and records to an independent audit company if other companies will do the same, that the Goodrich Company may prove it manufactures more auto mobile and truck tires combined than any other concern in America. The challenge states that the Goodrich Company manufactured in the last year more than 2,95O,O00 tires.
 The formal wording of the challenge follows:
 "To any rubber or tire manufactur- ing concern which claims production and sale of as many auto and truck tires combined (by any or all of its United States factories) as were pro duced and sold by the Akron (Ohio) factory of the B. F. Goodrich Company during the latest fiscal year of each we extend this challenge.
 We will throw open our books and records of tire manufacture and sale to a fair and impartial audit, super vised by committee of three to be mutually agreed upon. provided the competing tire concern or concerns will do the same.
 ''We will abide by the result of that audit, and agree that all rubber or tire concerns who are parties thereto be free to publish the certified findings of that audit as to the comparative vol ume of each company's combined auto and truck tire production and sale.
 We contine the audit to the produc- ton and sale of auto and truck tires combined to those made in the Ameri- can CD. S. Al factories of each con cern, thus excluding our own factory and the foreign factories of all com petitors.
 We do this because the volume of these foreign factories cannot materi ally help in lowering the cost of pro duction and the selling of tires. as made by the American factories oi each. and because some American rub Der concerns have no foreign factories We claim and know that the Akron (Ohio) factory of the B. r. Goodrich Company makes and sells more auto and truck tires combined than any oth CT rubber factory in America (U. s Al or any rubber company which op erates five or more tire and rubber fac tories in the United States.
 We extend this open challenge t' | all doubters and all tire advertiser | who should now either justify thei
 clairns for the largest volume by ac cepting this fair challenge or ceas'
 making such misleading claims

PACKARD COMPANY ID
 TEST THE AEROPLANE
Big Motor Company Buys Land On Which to Carry
 Out Aero Experiments.

A large tract of land on Lake St. Clair. near Mount Clemens. Mich. has been acquired by the Packard Motor Car Company, as an aviation field and landing place for reapolane tourists. This announcement has been made by J. c. Vincent, vice president of en- gineering.
 Aeroplanes will be received within month and experiments will com mence immediately thereafter, it is understood. As was said recently by President Henry B. Joy, the Packard Company has become strongly inter ested in aviation affairs, and tests with the view of proving the value of the twelve-cylinder motor for areo- plane use have been in progress for six months.
 In anticipation of the greater use of the aeroplane for touring purposes. the field will be made available for the comfort and convenience of aero tourists. and probably will be equipped with hangers. repair shops and supply stations, it is understood.
 Experimental aeroplanes will be fitted with motors designed by the Packard engineering department and constructed at the Packard factory. The company does not contemplate the manufacture of complete aero planes, for the time being, at least but will concentrate upon perfectine motors for aero use.

 The opening argument was made by Bruce Stevenson. assistant county at torney, who in a few words called at tention of the jury to the fact of the case. He was followed by Vim. R.. Cleary who for nearly three hours presented to the jury his views of the shooting and recited that it was an accident and that the defendant should be discharged. County Attor- ney Ross then made the closing argu- ment and brought out all the facts nesses showing that the defendant had. on a number of occasions. made threats that she was going to kill the deceased and that even on the day before she had said that she was go- ing away but before she went she was going to kill him.
 The case was given to the jury Fri day evening at o'clock. It was un- able to reach a verdict last night. This morning the jury came in and asked to have the instructions read again. This was done by Judge Lock wood, as Judge O'Connor had re- turned to his home in Nogales. The written instructions were taken into he frrrx hx-f ha

On these celebrations the people
were filled with good will to one an

and give aims to the poor. Later the
early Christians, our Anglo-Saxon an

nature and borrowed It and called
It Easter, and also had festival OF
rejoicing on Easter Sunday, lasting
for two or three days, but applied the
