CONVICT HAD
4 FREE YEARS
Carlos Herrera, Escaped
from State Pen Brought
to Phoenix from Califor-
MIA; L. Castillo, Honor
Man, Caught

Two more escaped convicts have
been captured and will be returned to
the state prison at Florence today.
Carlos Herrera who escaped four
years ago was taken in custody in
California and brought to Phoenix
yesterday at practically the same hour
that Lebrado Castillo, Il convict who
escaped from the road camp at Ar
linGtCn was lodged in the county Jail.
Herrera mas had four years liberty
since convicted of murder in Graham
county and given a sentence of from
ten years to life. He was caught a
few days ago by a constable of Braw-
ley, Cal. and brought to Phoenix by
agent Branaman of the state prison
Castillo, the other convict was serving
4 two to four year sentence for horse
stealing when he made his escape
Fhe Maricopa county Jail will soon
earn the name of the halfway house
if the capture of escapes continue with
the rapility with which they have been
forwarded the past few weeks. Just
recently three convicts were returned
to Florence via the county Jail route

The Bio Intensive" Farm

Near Bridgeport n. j.. is remarkable farm where
intensive methods used wholesale scale
IT is truck farm which formerly unsuccessful,
owing to seasonal handcaps The worst drawback,
summer drought overcome by constructing
extensive and probably expensive irrigation system
arrangement of overhead sprinkers covering 100
acres This move required courage part of the
farmer but, together scientific fertilization it
has produced highly satisfactory results.
The owner farms with his head as well as with his
body. He that Southern potatoes brought
high prices, he obtained special strains of early
potatoes and cultivated them carefully. He not
only has potato crops earlier than those of his neigh
bors but he produces 625 bushels per whereas
usual yield 100 bushels per Another
notable achievement of this farm is the production of
10000 quarts of strawberries to the acre. which is
nearly three times larger than the normal yield
These astonishing crops obtained by overhead
sprinkling and heavy fertilzing. The results i'm
pressive But what about expenses? We know how
some of this farmers crops compare with those of
the average farmer, would be equally interesting
to know how his expense accounts compare with
those average farmer Fertilizers and labor
not cheap and water something.
Assuming that large number of had
sufficient capital go intensive farming such
scale hugely improbable suppostion), what would
be the result of such enormous production? Would
not prices sink to point where nobody could make
profit? Intensive methods may succeed small
farms isolated instances fairly apparent
that the country has a sufficiently dense popua
ton to make intensive farming successful as a uni
versal practice.

CASE Of DEPUTIES
IN SUPREME COURT
Three Men Charged with Shooting
Woman. Ask Supreme Court to
Release Them

The cases of James L. Wiley Ra-
mon SalaZar and Thomas Johns, all
three of whom were formerly deputy
sheriffs of Pima county, were heard in
the supreme court yesterday. The
three men are being held in the county
Jail at Tucson, pending their trial for
having killed a woman near Tucson.
They have been refused bail since
their arrest, and they applied in the
superior court for u writ of habeas
corpus That tribunal refused to grant
the writ, and the case was appealed to
the supreme court.
The three deputies killed the woman,
while out hunting for a old-up man.
The woman was in a machine accom-
panied by her husband and driver
The machine sped by the deputies,
without halting as commanded. As the
machine whirled by, all three opened
| fire, killing the woman instantly.
The supreme court took the matter
under advisement 1t is expected that
a decision will be rendered in the near
| future

very few had become personally interested in mining
properties But that was the extent of the relation
between Phoenix and the mining industry. Neither
prospector the intending investor encountered
much encouragement here The latter. when he came
to town importuned purchase real estate when
he wanted only to buy mining properties and the i'm
portunities the real dealers of those days
sometimes and frequently, far to take the
form of knocking the mining business. That was
one thing that contributed the misunderstanding
between this valley and the mining counties.
Thus Phoenix though admirably situated geo
graphically on the cross roads between the mining
regions of the south and those of the north, and be-
tween those of the and the west lost early
opportunity to become the mining center of Arizona.
There Arizona mining center; there were only
centers of mining districts. And Phoenix did not
lie in mining district it altogether outside of
the industry The mining center of Arizona Los
Angeles, which lay 800 miles outside the
boundary.
Without any effort and in spite of itself Phoenix
has become sort of center of the great Pina county
mining region and it has failed to make the most of
its position Later though realizing somewhat the
benefits that been derived from that position,
Phoenix now looking toward the Ajo country. But
important and necessary that is, it is but
small part of the task of becoming real mining
center.
Denver became great because of the mines Of
Colorado Denver really less favorably situated
a mining center than Phoenix. 1t was rather out
side the edge of the mining region but it the
most important city nearest to the mines and it
there that miners and investors met. If they had not
kindly received and if interest had not been
taken in their meeting, they would probably have
made other town the mining center of the
Great Divide But from the beginning all the people
of Denver talked mines. There was there atmos
phcre of mining in which plans formed for the
development of what afterward became world famous
mines.
Now the opportunity has come to Phoenix again
and believe it viii be embraced and that there
will be strong inclination on the part of merchants
and business generally to encourage every legit
innate mining enterprise and every movement for the
development OF the industry. only in this vicinity
but throughout the state.

Real Estate Advertising

There two three lines of business which
seem to particularly susceptible good advertis
ing, in which good advertising is singularly scarce,
writes Charles A. Bates in Burnhams Lists.
Chief among these is real estate. Some real estate
men are very shrewd liberal advertisers but vast
majority OF them either make poor use of news
paper space or none at all In many thousands of
cases the "shngle' the door and the usual signs

object of advertising is to interest people who
able to buy homes or farms, but who think they
not able And the way to do it is to tell in your ads
just the things you tell the man who calls at your
office. Think of all possible questions that prospec-
tive customer will ask, and answer them in your adj
BE explicit 1t is not the best possible advertising
simply to tell the size location condition and price of
piece of property OF that is a good DEAL
and is more than many ads tell, but the ad that is
most likely to make quick sale is that tells
interesting story and covers many seemingly unm-
portant details.
When you talk to about selling him piece
of real estate you talking about something which
concerns his whole future welfare. The in
formation you give the better. Once interest him

years it is probable that some, if not many who

AGED PROSPECT0R HAS
ODD HALLUC|NAT|Ov
This Cause of Attempted Assault of
Mark Rogers Against B. E.
Marks

1t was a hallucination under which
he had labored for three years that
moved Mark Rogers, an aged pros
pector. to attempt an assault upon
Attorney Barnett f. Marks at the
door of Judge Stanford's court room
on Monday afternoon. From the
threats and subsequent remarks made
by Rogers after he was taken to the
sheriff's office he appears to believe
that Mr. Marks. is concerned in some
mining litigation in which he is a
party and that some how the attor-
ney is preventing it from coming to
trial
The only relation between Mr.
Marks and Rogers, as attorney and
client, was several years ago, when
Rogers was on trial for murderous
assault in which he shot at woman
at Wickenburg. He was convicted
and was sentenced to four years in
the penitentiary He could probably
have been acquitted if insanity had
been put forward as a defense, but
/ he was unwilling to resort to that.
! Rogers had no money to pay his
attorney and he gave Mr. Marks his
note for his fee the note being Sc
cured by a mortgage on some mining
property held by Rogers The at
4 torney regarded the property of SO
little value that he neglected to re-
cord the mortgage for a long time
and when he did present it for
record he found that a deed given by
Rogers to the man with whom he is
now in litigation had already been
recorded. Mr.. Marks says that he
knows nothing about this litigation
has no interest in it and feels nc
interest whatever in the property in
volved
The trial of Rogers took place il
January of 1911. A year later Mr.
Marks received a letter from Warder
Sims of the state prison, inquirina
concerning the details Of the case
saying that Rogers claimed to b.
absolutely innocent of the crime o
which he had been convicted. To thi
letter Mr.. Marks replied fully. HI
mentioned the probable insanity o
Rogers and added: IF there is any
thing | can do to assist you in ar
irving at a true opinion of the case
? or assist Mr.. Rogers by petitions o

SCHULTZ TELLS Of

Damage Suit in Which Rope

r. r. Schultz, who is suing the city
for $4,000 for injuries received when
he ran into a rope stretched across
Washington street. took the witness
stand yesterday and told the court of
his physical and mental condition

ward on his bicycle and was thrown
to the pavement he has been unable
to work except for q few weeks at
a time. He was 81 years of age when
the accident occurred and as conduct
ceiving $125 a month.
While he is a large, robust looking
man he declares that he suffers great
pain and is extremely nervous. He
declared that he was given no warn
ing that the rope extended across the
road and that. there were no signal
| lights. Under cross examination he
l,could not state whether or not tse
top light of the cluster of lights was
| burning.
His testimony was corroborated by
| half a dozen witnesses including G.. NJ.
Scott Supt. of the railroad for
which Schultz was conductor. George
| Pruitt formerly of the city police
force predicted just such an accident
and subsequent damage suit accord

beat included Second and Washing

place and that he himself narrowly
escaped being hurt in much the same

said that he also ran into the rope

Phoenix and Mining

II has been the misfortune of Phoenix and not
that of the mining industry Of Arizona that Phoenix
has not taken greater interest in that industry and
has failed to recognize il the states greatest
of wealth. That recognition is coming; may
say ii has come and, in consequence believe that
there will be Phoenix. More and women
of Phoenix than before have become interested
in Arizona mining properties. Lately the commercial
bodies of this city have entered upon campaign of
encouragement of the mining industry
All this is in happy contrast the general atti-
tude of Phoencians toward the mining business few
years ago. few of the merchants engaged in
furnishing supplies and machinery for some of the
smaller and nearer mines and some of them but a,
