Neither did he tell Bowers how many cases there were. The state said it would put Bowers on the stand to re- but this testimony, only Bowers is confined to his home on account oi sickness. In order to finish the case during the day; the county attorney agreed not to insist on waiting for the undersherirff to recover and take the stand.
 May Wilson's memory was even more tricky than that of Norton. She could not remember so many things that the state commented caustical- | ly on it. The result was that May got very cross With the prosecution, and asked him what his questions had to do with the case.
 She explained in more detail, the Norton-Wilson plans. Having come to Prescott from way the other side of the Colorado river, in l day they determined to put through a deal, and needing some keys and papers, con- cluded to hike back forthwith to the ranch to get them. After some thought, she admitted that the deal was not mentioned to anyone here but was between Norton and her, self. That was why they were going out of town so early. To her, the grand and scenic distances of Arizona did not amount to thing. Running back to California for some papers was a perfectly legal not to say sen, sible thing. She expected they would go back and get the papers, return, go to Phoenix, finish their deal, come to Prescott, reclaim the laundry Nor ton had left at the Vendome, and get back to California in a couple of days.
 She divided her time between King man and the ranch. She did not know how much time she habitually spent at each place She hadn't thought about the matter of which state she was really resident of, but when questioned, admitted tha. she had registered to vote at King. man for the last election. The coun- ty attorney was not permitted to ask her what name she used to register with.
 Tn all their travels, and May ad- mittcd that they had done consider able motoring around the state, she hadn't considered it necessary to car ry much excess baggage. All the clothing and toilet articles she needed were contained ill the pockets of the car.
 Like Norton, she did not know much about signatures. She couldn't recall having seen Norton's sigma ture on anything, although they had been business associates together for a considerable time. She supposed she was registered at the Vendome, but did not know under what name, This was only her second visit to Prescott, by the way.

THE COoTIE IS SQUAW'S
 WAY TO LIBERTY

The fact that Yavapai county has no cootie mill worked to the bene- fit of Susie Dick yesterday. An ulti matum was issued to Justice of the Peace McLane by Sheriff Davis, to the effect that if the court wanted Susie confined for the full term of 60 days as ordered, the county would have to evacuatc its other prisoners to some safer and more convenient place.
 In other words, Susie was lousy
 The squaw was jailed for 60 days for having laid down rock barrage against her neighbors, following an overindulgence in tiswen. Mrs. Dick did not plead Judge McLane said 60 days Sheriff Davis, unsuspecting, said O. K.
 Then things began to happen Mrs. Dicks personal hibits in the woman's section of the jail began to attract notice. Also, certain little friends of the captive began to attract notice. The sheriff investigated It appeared that discretion was the bet ter part of law-enforcement. The sheriff asked the judge how long ne expected to keep Mrs. D. in confine- ment, and when the judge said two months, a howl went up.
 The Prisoners Union is consider. ing importing a particularly virulent brand of cootic from the trenches of Flanders. It would be cheaper than hiring lawyers.

BIG MOVEMENTS FOR
 BRADSHAWS IN MINING
(From Fridays Daily)

| Limited operations of the Gold
 King Mining Co.,, which have been under way during the winter months, will assume immediately a broader and far more extensive system of development than has ever been give cn the property, this announcement being made a few days ago by Aver
 ett Moffitt, of Muncic, Indiana, presi-
 dent of the company. With George Donner, the superintendent, and MT.
 Moffitt made a ten days inspection of the holdings situated near Crown
 King, and his observations were eX- pressed in such a pronounced manner that every detail, from large to sman matters, was definitely outlined for action to begin.
 The initial movement to get the King in good working condition is the construction of the new wagon road toward the switchback ot the Bradshaw Mountain railroad, and this work is to be rushed. Develop ment also begins coincidently in min. ing. and it is believed that inside or two months the famous gold mine of that zone of the Bradshaws will be on a firm foundation and with prac- tical ability directing on basis of pcrmaneney Mir. Donner, of course, is to be retained, his familiarity with the King, after many years on the ground alfording him an insight which no other mining man possess

ARIZONA AIR MAN IS
 ACCORDED HIGH HONOR
(From Thursdays Dailv.)

The arrival in New York city, from overseas of the Lafayette Flying Escadrille is of local interest, for among the members numbering fifty appears the name of Frank Rogers of Prescott, son of Mir. and Mrs. l. B. Rogers.
 This contingent of American aerial combatants in being selected was limited to the above number out O, several thousand, and only those with an established record for prowes4 were chosen to give exhibitions in the coming drive for the Victory Loan.
 Their itinerary includes Arizona, but only the capital city of Phoenix will have the distinction of witness, ing for one day their aerial feats. Each aviator also has his machine used abroad, and they bring ten Hun p;anes captured in action, each man, ned by an American and used i'll all flights.
 The date for the Arizona event as yet has not been set, and will not be known until after the flights be- gin in California sometime early next month. Rogers ran away from home to be an aviator, mastered the art at home, and in France qualified for hi, daring exploits, winning hign honors.

 J. H. Cordes, one of the best known of Yavapai residents, passed away al Humboldt on Wednesday night pneumonia being the fatal affliction Over one month ago he was taken i'll at Tempe with influenza, and re- covering left for California to recu- perate After his return last week he complained of poor health, when he was removed to the Consolidated hospital his condition being serious.
 A sad coincidence attached to his illness and death is that son, Charles Cordes, also is now under treatment at Humboldt afflicted with pneu- monia, but his condition is not alarm ing.
 The deceased has been identified with the substantial interests of this county for over third of a century, and established Cordes station. Per sonally MT. Cordes was a fine type of the gentleman, kind and considerate to all. He was born in Germany 66 years ago. but was naturalized as d citizen at New York city in 1876. Surviving is widow, three daughters and three sons, one of the latter, Fred Cordes, returning home a few days ago after serving in the army. The funeral will take place in this city on Saturday afternoon, under auspices of the Elks, of which or der he was q member.

GAME CLEANUP. PAYS
 HUNTER GOOD SUM
(From Saturdays DaiIy.)

Dick Brown one of the best
 known of Hassapamyers, is at his old game of hunting and trapping wild animals, like in other days, and is profiting by the high cost of pelts. producing a check yesterday for $40l from St. Louis furrier for the sea sons cleanup. The segregated ac- count is as follows: For 40 gray foxes, $50 apiece; 40 skunks, $1O0 each; 20 coyotes S each; 20 wildcats, average price, $; 5 coons, $4 each.
 MT. Brown made this good cleanup in the Granite mountain regions, and the above sum represents less than three months work He says that small game has been abundant this winter, owing to deep snow and scarcity of feed, and the only com- plaint is that in some cases pelts were poor owing to the condition of the half starved animals, bringing a small price accordingly. He has his camp, but later returns to open Up a mine discovered in the chase. The ore he produces assays $50 to the ton in gold

WOBBLY BREAKS UP HIS HOME;
 WIFE SUES
(From Fridays nailx.l

Proof that l. w. W.ism is destruc- tive to the home is offered in the divorce complaint filed yesterday against James Chapman, leader of the strike that caused the shut down in the Jerome district. Mrs. Chapman plea for freedom from her undesir- able spouse for herself and their twin boys, aged years, was filed by At torney J. E. Russell yesterday.
 That the breakup of their home was directly due to Chapman's in- fatuation with I. w. w. doctrines is flatly charged by his wife. Other iapses of which a married man should never be guilty, are alleged, but the chief cause of the trouble lay in the continued humiliation brought upon his family by Chapman's frequent ar rests.
 Chapman's acts have caused him to become notorious in every mining camp in Montana and Arizona, ac- cording to the complaint.
 The couple were married at Butte, Montana in 1910. They have two boys, each aged i. For varying per iods, the wife and children nave been left unsupported, and have often de pended on the charity of their neigh bors for their living.
 It was against his wifc's wishes that Chapman engaged in organizing for the Industrial Workers of the World. Neglect of his duties toward the home resulted from his frequen, assignments to foment strikes, and his association with wobblies led aim to become cruel, and to indulge it outrages and exesses toward his wife. He was often arrested and held up to the ridicule of the community, and this led to the deep humiliation of his wife.
 Two years ago at Bisbee, the de- fendant threatened the plaintiffs life with d gun. At Jerome last August, he fondled and caressed a Mexican woman in the presence of his wife, and since then has displayed affec- ton toward women in her presence, that caused her deep shame.
 Mir. Chapman asks that the defend ant be caused to pay her $250 for ex- penses necessary to the trial of her case. In addition to divorce and GUS. tody of the two boys, she asks for alimony in the sum of $50 a month

ment of the Fort Grant Industrial
 School presented today by Mrs. Ro-
 land C. Dryer of Phoenix, appointed by Governor Campbell to investigate conditions at the school.
 There is one word written in black letters over the entire school" says Mrs. Dryers report" and this word is 'Monotony;' long days of work and study, long evenings without amuse. mcnt"
 Referring to plans to improve con- ditions at the Fort Grant institution, Mrs. Dryer says that she feels that appreciation is due the legislature fol appropriations of S1OOOOO for build ing and grounds and $25,000 to re- build the burned girls building. The report continues:
 Girls old and young, of all degrees of character, have lived, worked, played, eaten, slept together, whicl, is not as it should be. The girls, though they never are very many ill number, should live under the cottage system. Probably it will be more ex- pensive, but what man or woman is there in Arizona who would oppose separating young girls committed to the school for some small offense, from older girls, some of them notor- ious throughout the state?
 HTTbo I,,i1J;aCe o1J o,,J ally unsuitable to their present pur- pose. The dormitory is very crowd- ed with beds almost touching. The boys are locked into this place iron, supper until bed time; boys of all ages and moral character thrown in together There has been no read. ing or game room; no heat and con- sequently bad air.
 "The school room is very dark. The boys dining hall is dark, gloomy and depressing. I judged the food to be sufficient and plain. I ate with the girls and can testify that the food was good and we'll cooked. The state furnishes no fresh fruit or can dy.
 'Neither boys nor girls have suffi- cient or suitable clothes. 1 recom- mend that when pupil comes to the school he shall wear only what is provided by the state
 "In the rebuilding of the boys quarters I urge that the cottage plan be followed.
 There should be a motion picture machine at the school to amuse and instruct the pupils. Both boys and girls should have recreation build ing or rooms in which may be placed the library being gathered by the women of the state. Also, there should be plenty of outdoor sports
 'In the matter of labor, I feel that the pupils have mad too much work in the past, and they have been handi- capped by lack of proper tools and equipment.
 Much has been done in improving the grounds. and school farm and in planting trees.
 There is no doubt that in the past there have been instances Of cruelty, but l saw no evidences of any under the present administration"
