ANOTHER VICTIM OF
 THE DEADLY VINEGERIA
(From ThursdaY's DaiIy.l

Fearing evil effects from the bite of vinegeria, which is better known among Indians as the child of the earth" Lincoln B. Davis, an employe of a placer mining company south of Bouse, passed through the city a few days ago for the Pasteur Insti- ute, Chicago, to be placed under treatment
 He was struck by this insect on the middle finger of the right hand, and while the wound was slight and caused but little pain, it is feared in lection may develop.
 The vinegeria in emerging from the soil is somewhat of the shape of human, hence its name, is lily white in color, but in a few minutes after being exposed to the air as sumes reddish tint.
 Prompting Mir. Davis to seek the highest medical skill is the fatal ill., less which overlook the late Dennis A. Burke of Bouse, after being in fected from the bite of an insect of this class. His death occurred in Prescott after he had fingered for over IS months, the first symptoms developing within two weeks after he was bitten on the hand Special ists were consulted and when once the decline started there was no re- lief.
 While medical authorities state the vinegeria is not deadly, Mexicans and Indians, however, have a dread of this creature, stating that the bite is always fatal, and they invariably are careful in making their bed on the ground to ascertain that the soil is free of them Their habits are to crawl out of shallow hole as the sun is rising.

BUSINESS GOOD

Harry Knowles arrived from Douglas yesterday, coming in re- sponse to a telegram from Julius Jacoby that there was a position open for him in the latter's barber shop. MT. Knowles said that to live in Prescott was a privilege he appre- ciated the better now that he had spent several months away from this climate, for this place could not be beaten as an all the year around good climate city. MT. Jacoby has arranged with the Los Angeles barbers' union to send him another man, business being so brisk on ac- count of the thrush of silver promo ters that he is forced to set up an other chair.

as counsel for Martin, who is also of that race. Astor- will return in about two weeks for the preliminary examination.
 Deputy Sheriff Joe Furst arrived yesterday from California with four suit cases full of personal effects of De Steunder and Martin, found in the later's car at Yetem, where the ar rest was made. Among the effects was a bleod-stained pair of uniform brooches belonging to Martin, wrist identity disk with the name and reg imental assignment og De Steunder. two wrist watches, a wallet contain ing the dead mans discharge papers and horde of photographs of Mar tin, who seemed to have had pas sion for likenesses of himself.
 Martin complained almost strenu- ously, of his weakness yesterday when taken to doctor for the pur pose. of having his wounds dressed He had some fever, the result of ly ing all day in the hot sun with 9 hole in his leg, and was unwilling or unable to talk coherently about the part of his transcontinental automo- bile journey between Winslow, where he declares De Steulder left him and Needles, where he emerged from the state. -... -.
 Martin is a peculiar type. He has a small, round head, set closely on 2 thick bull neck, and the back of his skull is practically straight up and down. He has sub-normal ears, set low ou the head, <. and his black rather kinky hair and black eyes mark him for one of an alien race instantly He m,anifests a great inr terest ill religion, and has had his Armenian bible sent to him. Yester- day he inquired for a minister.
 Chemical tests ordered by Furst during his stay at Visalia proved that stains on some of the clothing found in Martins effects were blood. Mar tin at first denied ownership of the brooches, but was induced to try them on in a dark room, where he could not see the stains. He then ad- mitted the pants were his.
 Quite a number of small articles are thought to have been stolen. Among these is a part of 50-mil off cers' binoculars, valued at $65, which Martin presented to Sheriff Court Smith at Visalia

It was at this stage that misfortune overlook Pal mer His car wheels tracked him ln- to the clutches of the federal law, and he admits the crime, as the wet goods were on hand, as was the par aphernalia for making the same.
 His only regret was thus expres- sed: Am sorry that my Prescott and Jerome clients are liable to get pretty thirsty before T can show up again, and the loss of that 10-gallon keg is to be especially regretted by me and them. It was good stuff, and the price-well, we won't talk about that now.

BOOZE MERCHANT HAD
 INGENIOUS APPARATUS
(From Saturdays Daily)

NFrOm SatuTQdV DdllyJ
 Booze-making on the fly by dis tillery on wheels is the latest creation of the adventuresome to get by the prohibition law. One of these wet goods merchants by the name of Pal mer was arrested few days ago in side gulch of Black canyon, near Bumblebee, by Deputy U. S. Marshal Weage, and returned to Phoenix. This is the manner i'll which Palmer ground out his goods and his meth cd in manufacturing was honest so far as quality of the liquid is to be considered, as the capture of a TO- gallon keg that assayed up to the standard will verify.
 The essential asset in liquor mak- ing by the Palmer route IS a big au- tomobile. Its construction is so ar tistically arranged and the mechan- ism so ingeniously set in position as to delude the most exacting sleuth The bed of the car is deep laid with an opening therein to permit of the insertion of a gasoline burner, over which sets the tank with the worm The raw product bases such as corr and rye, with the necessary trim mings to tune up the fluid to any de sired proof, finds its location con venient, so that labor is reduced tc the minimum in this one-man man ufactory.
 In short, steam can be gotten up and the liquid grind maintained as the driver sits serenely on the seal watching the motor wheels go round and round on the high or low gear

SOMEONE'S BAD MISTAKE
 COSTLY FOR GUERRERO
(From Friday's Dailyl

Well, by gosh! If some son of a gun didn't trade suit cases with mel"
 Angel Guerrero, aged 17, gazed in perfect astonishment at the bottled liquid contents of his two heavy grips on the station platform at Seligman, and then looked at Special Officer J. R. Froman to see if MT. Froman were not equally amazed to see the frewater where nothing but innocuous personal effects should have been. Angel had just stepped of an eastbound train, carrying two pieces of hand baggage that were self evidently overloaded. Froman had accosted him in pleasant man. ner:
 Hey! Mind if I look in those suit cases?"
 "No. Go right ahead"
 Business of opening the two suit cases to the gaze of the law, and then the exclamation with which this chronicle begins.
 Tn spite of his astoundment, Angel Guerrero was brought to Prescott or the afternoon train yesterday asld locked up in the county jail to be eX- amined on a/charge of having associ- ated with persons of criminal care lessness-such as would tfor a con sidcration, perhaps) enormously exr change a suit case containing nothing or nothing intoxicating, at least, for one loaded with liquid fire of the for bidden sort.

realized the necessity for mail ser vice such as outlined above, but the necessary authority has, for some reason or other, never been granted. One reason is that inspectors sent to look over the field have been deceiv- ed about the number of families liv- ing along the Verde between Cotton wood and Camp Verde. The road keeps to the high mesa and one finds it hard to believe that only half a mile or so to the left is green and fertile valley where thousands of peo- pie make their homes.
 France is now collecting data re- garding the exact number of people who would be benefited by the pro- posed new route. Complete figures never have been submitted to the de- partment.
 The government is now put to the expense of maintaining a route from Jerome to Cornville and another from Clarkdale to Verde.
 What the packers of the movement want is to cut out these two short routes and make daily mail service either from Jerome or Clarkdale in the Verde valley, also maintaining this Camp Verde and Dewey route

 The following information gives in detail the account of the accident which overlook the airplanes bound tor Prescott from Rockwell field. One is a letter received by Secretary Grace NJ. Sparkes from Lieutenant Colonel Henry L. Watson of Rock well field and the other is the Asso- ciated Press report, taken from the Arizona Republican:
 q regret very much to inform you hat the two airplanes which left this field on October l4 en route to Pres colt as all added attraction to your air, met with an accident and it was utterly impossible to make necessary repairs in order to proceed on thcif tourney. The pilots were instructed to wire you from Phoenix as to exact hour of arrival in Prescott, and as l heard nothing relative to their mis- hap until last evening supposed they had carried out instructions and wired you from any stops they may have made en route. Had 1 any in- timation as to their accident in time, would have gladly sent other planes, but they made forced landing in m out of the way place where it was impossible to get immediate commit nication to this field. If their arri- gal was disappointment to the off cials of the fair it was equally as disappointing OH my part in not hay .ng the planes report on time, as l wired you they would probably arrive on the afternoon of the 18th. Trust ing that at some future date, planes from this field may take part in fes- tivities at Prescott, I am, yours truly, Henry L. Watson, It. Col. U. 5. 4"
 The Associated Press dispatch fol- lows:
 San Diego, Cal, Oct. 21.-Weary and footsore, four Rockwell field aviators, Lieutenant Clarence ], Me Carn, D. F. Duke, w. R. Sweeley and Corporal J. Riley, who were lost for nearly week in the mountains of Lower California, reached here today on lobster boat, revealing for the first time another air scouting party being added to the list of those miss ing. The men started in two air planes on October l4 for Phoenix, but failed to reach their destination.
 Several hours after leaving San Diego the men say they realized they had become lost and descended to get their bearings. One of the ma chimes came down ill a mud-puddle and damaged so badly it could not be again used for flying.
 "The four men then got into the second machine, but say that shortly after leaving the ground something happened to this plane and forced landing was made. The second machine was also so badly damaged that the flight had to be abandoned E . The aviators then started to walk, and continued a day and night, when their food supplies were eX-

PRESCOTT MASON CROWD
 TO GO TO THE VERDE
(From Tuesdays DailY.0

All Masons who can jar loose tor a couple of days are going to have a wonderful time at Clarkdale to- morrow and Saturday, when Atzlan Lodge, No. 1, F. & A. M, puts or the work in the second and third de grees at the Verde lodges.
 This visit will include work in the second degree at Clarkdale Friday night and in the third at Jerome or Saturday night. In addition to the officers, about 40 local Masons are signed up to go, and any others floating around loose who can mako the trip will be welcome.
 The automobiles will leave about noon tomorrow, and the lodge mer will be back Sunday night, after 2 series of festivities covering every thing from teaching candidates to eating banqucts.
 One of the attractions on the Je' rome end will be the opportunity tc look over the work being done on the short line road to Prescott. The hard rock men are working within a quarter of a mile of the city linn. its, and out of sight of the town around the shoulder of the hill or which it is built. A walk up the roat so far completed is an astonishing thing, for at one moment, one IS right on the edge of a populous place and the next, on the shoulder of a most desolate and abandoned hill, with huge rocks everywhere and tiny figures of men struggling to cast the great boulders over the brink into the chasm below. The water course is aptly named Decep, ton Gulch.
 Within a month the contractor means to shoot one entire hillside down to make part of the roadway and provided one can get within see ing distance safely, the shot will pro vide all enormous spectacle.

VERDE VALLEY HAS CHANCE FOR MODEL
 MAIL SERVICE
CFrom Fridays DaiIy1

Agitation for a daily mail service to Camp Verde is being renewed and this time the prospects for the sue cess of the movement are indeed bright.
 So many arguments for the pro posed route are to be presented to the powers that be at Washington that it is hoped the new star route can be instituted as soon as there is mail service from Jerome to Clark dale over the V. T. & s. railroad, which will be ill two or three months.
 There is no doubt that the five thousand people served out of the Camp Verde and Aultman offices will support the movement wholehearted- ly. Petitions setting forth the con ditions as they exist and the advan- tages to be derived from the propos- ed new route are being prepared by R H. Cunningham, postmas- ter of Jerome, and will be circulated in the lower valley by Frank France, postmaster at Aultman, some six miles this side of Camp Verde. These petitions are to be forwarded to Con gressnlan Carl Hayden and Senator Henry r. Ashurst with request that the matter be taken up with the prop CT authorities at the capital
 Although the interests of Camp Verde are closely bound up with the interests of the Verde mining and smelting district, it takes letter at least three days, often five, to travel from Jerome, Clarkdale, Cottonwood or Verde, to Camp Verde.
 Most of the farm produce grown in the vicinity of Aultman and Camp Verde is marketed in this district. Quick mail communication between the producers and the merchants who retail their products is essential As it is now they do almost no business by mail By the time letter can be dispatched and an answer received the farmers potatoes have rotted or 1 his eggs are spoiled A letter from i Jerome, for instance, leaves there on the noon train. It gets to Prescott tonight and is sent out to Dewey, over the P & E. tomorrow. Day after tomorrow a stage carries the cpistle to Camp Verde and it finally reaches the addrcssee the first time he or one of his neighbors is in town. Suggested Plan.
 The plan to be submitted to the 1 postofficc department is as follows: Discontinue the present star route 1 from Jerome to Cornville. Send a star carrier out of Clarkdale every morning to Cottonwood, Verde and Cornville. over the bridge now being built at Thompsons crossing. Dou- ] ble back from Cornville to this side of the river and then run down to i Aultman and Camp Verde, distribut- ing mail on the way to boxes placed along the road.
 This route can be covered easily ] between 9 a. m. and , D. m. A mail from Jerome would be received at ClarLdale before the departure of the carrier. There would be another mail to Jerome after the return oi the carrier in the afternoon. Thus 1t would be possible for a Jerome merchant to mail a letter here in the morning and get reply the same evening.
 Service is Necessary.
