HUMOROUS AND YET
 TRAGICAL WAS SCENE From CundaV'S DailVl

George Craigue, until about three
 years ago a carpenter of this city, has unintentionally plunged into the
 limelight, not through his high me chanical ability, but his his connnam- bulistic antics. Here is what a press account from East Omaha states:
 "Craigue has room at the Cres- cent apartments. and incidentally ne has been working on the building at his trade. At about 43O a. m. on Sunday morning he ascended the
 roof unlocked the hook from the glass well, and squeezed through a hole of about IA inches square. He !was asleep and also was he nude. His meanderings attracted the atten- tion of a colored youth enploye who in astonishment followed ;lim up- ward, until he disappeared from view. The button was touched and the night man came mp to investigate.
 The roof was reached and Craigue was discovered rubbing his right foot dextrously. He was awake at this time, and wore q broad grin EX- plaantions followed and he stated he had been addicted to sonambulism for many years, or since he reco- vered from scarlet fever when youth. He went to bed thinking of the job he had to do on the roof the next day. and his mind drifted into the material, hence he went up some hours ahead of time. His being awakened was due no doubt to step ping on a live wire laid along the cornice, hence he might have met a horrible fate in falling five stories He stated alterward he had an alarm apparatus to attach to one of his feet but that night forgot to put on his harness"

The broad archways framed pictures Of the setting sun and the stately pines, silhonetted against the western sky, but no fairer picture could be imagined than that which presented itself to the ''in-looker" on the groups of lovely maidens in girlish evening frocks. moving hap oily among the lights and flowers.
 Miss Edith Gatfeld at the piano and Jack Abbott at the violin added much to the brilliancy of the occas- ion. A bower of Havng palms and trailing vines partially hid the play CTS and lent a charm to lovely music
 The refreshments were all in order Of the 1919 colors, gold and white At each plate was a snow white kew pie with a band of golden tulre around the head.
 When the strains of Till We Meet Again" sounded the signal for the parting of ways, a vote of thanks from Genevieve McNally.

LONG DEBATE IS
 FUTILE; JURY DISAGREES

After 84 hours of futile discussion, the Bernice Anderson jury reported yesterday that il stood II to for acquittal, and that it could not reach an unanimous agreement. Jury was by Judge Sweeney.
 The county attorneys office de- clared that it had no intention of dis missing the charges of murder against Mrs. Anderson, inasmuch as she admitted the homicide on the stand and said she would do it again under similar circumstances. On the other hand, the defense is of mind 10 make a fight for dismissal, with a pledge that the commitment proceedings will be instantly started against the accused, with view to having her incarcerated in the state hospital for the insane.
 In the absence of the county attor- ney at Flagstaff, where he has gone to prepare for the re-trial of the murder charge against Harry Earl Stephens, nothing could be learned of the attitude he will take n the face of the disagreement.

FARMERSTOKEEP UP DRIVE ON
 PRAIRIE DOCS
From Saturdays DailvJ


 Judging from the splendid results secured in destroying prairie dogs during the past spring drive, it is very evident that the farmers and stockmen of Yavapai county are a progressive and alert body of people who are determined to see the prai- rie dog extermination to a success ful end. This was the statement of D. A. Gilchrist, rodent pest director for Arizona. who was in Prescott yesterday
 Mr. Gilchrist has just completed a trip over Yavapai county inspecting the prairie dog situation and has con ierred with farmers, stockmen and officials in view of carrying out the desires of the people relative to the continued destruction of these harm ful pests.
 During the past spring drive 20  quarts of poison was given to each farmer. This was prepared from CO., operative funds provided by fine board of supervisors. the state legislature and the biological survey of the U. s. Department of of Agriculture, and was distributed by F. NJ. Fisher and Glenn Metcalf, poison experts, in CO., operation with the Yavapai Chamber of Commerce and County Agricul- mral Agent George Scheerer.
 The cooperation of the Chamber If Commerce and Agent Scheerer has proven very effective, proving the value of q county wide organiza- ion and a farm bureau. One farmer reports the raising of crop Of beans and corn worth $2,500 on a ,iece of land where the prairie dogs formerly destroyed everything.
 In order to make the eXtermina- ion complete the work will be fol- owed mp this summer using poisoned grain and carbon bisulphide gas. Farmers will be supplied with cuough to treat small holdings and stockmen with enough for one sec .oin of land. Stockmen who desire 70 treat extensive holdings of over one section will be given the poison or gas at actual cost of l2 cents per
 uart for poison and $ll5 per gallon or gas. Experienced foremen' will 1lso he provided by the state and government to take charge of given mits of work
 At the suggestion of the Chamber ,f Commerce, Mir. Gilchrist confer
 ed with Lieut.. Col Raymond w.. Bliss yesterday relative to giving the post some substantial assistance in lilling the prairie dogs on the avia- ion landing field. After killing the logs the burrows will be filled, as hese holes have proven dangerous n landing.
 Under the privisions of senate bifi No. E, which goes into effect July l, he state and federal government will ,ach contribute $25.O00 year for the lext two years to be used for com batting rodent pests in Arizona. This II addition to the assistance of the ieveral counties will result in some hing worth while in the way of practical assistance to the agricul- nral and livestock industries of the tate. The rodent work will be di- -ected jointly by the biological sur
 ay and the extension service, Uni rersity Of Arizona. This bill also makes a like provision for the de- ;iruction of predatory animals, such Is coyotes, wolves, lions, etc, and his branch of the work will be un- Ter joint direction of the biological survey and the livestock sanitary board.
