ize with public and semi-public in
situations. 1t will be an opportunity
for the people who are going to stay
permanently In the town to help ad-
vertise it as desirable place to live
and consequently to attract people
and thus enchance values of property.
1t will be q good chance for people
who want to sell out and leave the
place, to clean up and keep their
property looking as good as possible
so It will more readily find buyer
at good price. The town is far
above the average in appearance and
1t needs only little care and little
more effort to place 1t conspicuously
above all its sister towns.
About three weeks after the fair
there will be district institute when
500 teachers win live In the town
for week and be domiciled in all
the homes where there is room for
them. At that time the teachers will
be looking the town over to see
where are the finest places and
where are the districts occupied by
the poor. and wretched. Finding no
poor and wretched districts, but all
prosperous and respectable, they will
take note OF the we'll kept places and
the NEEDLESS surroundings and will
watch to see II there are any badly
kept premises. They will be given
drives all over town and out into the
country and drivers will cali their at
tention to the high rating. Of the
population as shown by the condition
Of their property, and at the end Of
the institute week 1t will be possible
to have 500 walking advertisements
scattered out over q dozen counties
OF the state and writing letters to
their homes in many states giving
their observations and opinions OF q
town where they have been enter
tanned and toasted and kept happy
for a week when, the Goddess Of
ceres has just completed her record
for the year. &
These two events open wonder
full opportunity for the town to es-
tablish q new rating for itself and
to get kind Of advertising that is
both effective, automatic and per-
manent, for there is no better public
ity forsa community than. the tour
lists, the pleasure seekers and the
young people, who having visited the
place and been emphatically i'm
pressed by 1t, are Selling every suit

write about it and to mail a piece OF
literature concerning 1t, and to write

The most dangerous agent OF vice
and crime In America today Is the
Illicit drug bootlegger, say federal au-
th0rities
i Operating through highly organized
syndlcates, and supplied BY interna-
tional smugglers, the dope peddler
has In this country more than mil
lion clients.
L. g. Mutt, director Of the federal
narcotic field force, says thousands OF
addicts are young men and young
women. He declares there has been
great increase In the number OF
girls Of respectable families who have
been lured into drug rings"
Toledo Drug Center.
Toledo, o.. Is said BY government
operatives for the narcotic field force
to be the chief distributing point In
the United States and from there the
underground channels ramify to other
cities as far away as the Pacific
coast and the Gulf.
The big volume Of opium and CO
caine enters the United States at the
port Of New York, Is there safeguard
ed by counterfeit labels, routed
through Canada and again enters the
country through Toledo.
One dope syndicate in that city Is
known to government agents to be
financed to the extent of $500, 600 and
has $4,000 always available for de-
tense Of arrested hlrelings, though
none OF the principals have ever been
apprehended.
The chief source Of supply Is said
to be certain English interests.
Legitimate importations Of opium in
1917 ran to 1882 pounds and In 1920
jumped to 82S,971 pounds, according
to the governments monthly summary
Of commerce. Thus far in 1921 there
is considerable drop.
Women Are Addicts.
Available statistics show about an
equal number Of men and women adj
diets throughout the country.
The class Of addicts which consti-
tute a public menace through crime
or degeneracy are almost wholly sup
piled through Illicit channels.
All drug users are not to be Jumped
in one class, authorities state. Many,
they point out, are such because Of
protracted medication with opiates.
Generally, 1t is maintained, cases Of
medical origin In the opiate division
remain on practically the same moral
and mental level as they were before.
particularly when the dosage Is small.
The Harrison narcotic act recog-
nizes these distinctions in the cause
and nature of addiction but does not
concede the use Of drugs merely to
relieve the cravings Of the confirmed
user not otherwise diseased.
The law is rapidly tightening up
sources Of hitherto legitimate supply,
and thousands of habitues confronted
with this situation have elected to get
their supply from underworld sources
at exorbitant prices.

Have to Shut Down

CORRESPONDENTS National Met als Recovery Company closed it's mill with the last shift run yesterday ow- ing to the impossibility of the Hua- chuca Water Company to furnish them water, owing, it is said, to the great drouth now in the country. The only alternative for the company now is to pump water from the Lucky Cuss shaft, if arrangements can be made with the Bunker Hill Mines Company. This would be quite expensive, how ever, and the company may decide to await the revival of the supply of the water, which, according to the man. agement, should come within the next 90 days. The company is reported to have been having good success with their eXtractions and the shutdown. which is only temporary is to be de plored, since it tends to curb local industry

mer, Jno. Wight, Jno. Preston, Bob Deyore. Hugo Bryant, How ard Parks and two Indian trail CTS.
 All of these men were directly on his trail, taken at the point where he was seen about noon by Roy Tucker.
 Had Stolen Rifle
 He had a Krag Jorgensen rifle iu hs hands, when shot, a rifle that had been stolen from the cabin of Wallace, a miner near Sleeping Beauty mountain.
 The body of Burnett was brought to Globe in the evening and was taken to the sheriff's of flee and later taken N the mOrgue Of F. l.. Jones and com pany. The body was brought to Globe in an automobile belonging to Supervisor Paul J. Harrison.
 Movements Sunday
 Tom Hamilton, from his min ing camp south of Globe, came into town yesterday morning and told that Burnett took Sunday dinner with him, uninvited, and after dinner helped himself to what foodstuff he could conven- iently carry, and forgetting to say, ''I thank you struck off northeast, in the direction of Richmond Basin. He was armed with business-like rifle, and Mir. Hamilton did not urge him to re- main or to call again.
 As soon as the news reached the officers, Sheriff Kinsey and Chief of Police. Pinyan left for the Hamilton camp, about eight miles from Globe, but were un- able to find any trace of Burnett or any sign of Hamilton. They returned to Globe and Sheriff Kinsey, with deputies Sam Jones Gilmer and Bryan and the blood hounds went hack to the camp.
 New Trail Seen
 A few minutes after two o'clock yesterday, Roy Tucker came to the sheriff's office and reported that he had plainly seen Burnett not an hour before, in a canyon in the Richmond Pasin country; that he was travelling up the canyon, in the direction of a small spring carrying a rifle, and that he was not more than sev- enty-five feet from him.
 Al. Gray, Roland Jones and Bill Jackson immediately started back with Roy Tucker to take his trail at the point named.
 Burnett apparently made mistake, according to local peo- pie in leaving that part of the country with which he is most familiar, and which is so densely covered with brush and under growth and moving. into a district bare of vegetation and ornament ed principally with boulders.

SALCIDO FREED
 AF TER HAVING TWO TRIALS
Gambling Charge Dismissed After Second Jury Fails
 To Agree On Verdict

For the second time a jury in the justice court at Lowell failed to agree yesterday in the trial of Francisco Salcido, arrested on the night of May IA in a raid on the Brewery pool hall, on charge of gambling. The com plaint was dismissed. Salcido was tried first on May 20, in the justice court at Lowell, but the jury failed to agree at that time also, and the pros tcutiOn brought. the case to trial a second time. The jury argued yes terday from until o'clock, and was finally dismissed by Judge Mckenzie when they declared it impossible to reach a verdict.
 The trial in both cases was murkeu by the matter-of-faCt evidence pre-. sented by the prosecution, the wit nesses for which testified that they watched Salcido dealing a game of "Monte;' saw cards and money on the table, and saw Salcido pay several bets. Witnesses for the defense, who were with Salcide in the pool hall, testified either that they did not sec him play cards at all, or that ne vrs playing q game of solitaire.
 Thomas and Winters were attor neys for the defense, and the case was prosecuted by Walter Roche, as sistant county attorney.

The following account of the slay ng by a posse member of Red Whis Sers" Burnett, escaped convict anC murderer of Marion Teague. of Gil; County, brings to mind the early day. n Arizona when ''man-hunting' wa' ! more frequent event than in pres snt days. Here is the Globe Record, story of the death of Red Whis lers:"
 The long quest for E. B. Bur nett, escaped convict, better known as Red Whiskers," want ed for the murder of Marion Teague, ended yesterday after noon at 6:45 o'clock when he was shot while attempting to escape by Roland Jones of Globe, mem Der of the pursuing posse, near the summit of Apache mountain.
 The climax came at the end of the fifteenth day of a man hunt which, for relentless and the courage and unflagging energy of the pursuers has few if any, par allels in the criminal history of the southwest.
 The posse came hup with Bur nett near the White Signal mine, about 20 miles northeast of Globe worked by Clarence Pattengill and Joe Cordoni, who joined the posse consisting of Roland Jones. Roy Tucker and Deputy Sheriff Ava Gray, who was in charge of the party. The party divided three, Tucker, Pattengill and Cor doni going around the mountain to the left to head the fugitive off in case he took that course, and Jones and Gray following the trail towards the top of the mountain.
 Story of Killing
 When near the summit Gray spied hum, not forty feet distant, to the left and both men covered him with their 30-40's and called to him to throw up his hands. He gave a quick glance over his left shoulder and jumped for the shel- ter of a thick bush a few feet dis tant.
 The two called again but he continued running and jumping. Roland Jones fired and missed. As Burnett gained the bush and crouched down, rifle in hand, Roland Jones fired again, the ball striking Burnett in the left shoul- der in almost the identical spot where Teague was shot. It passed through the shoulder and arm, into his heart
 His body was tied and strap ( ried down the mountain where his captors met w. G. Duncan. w. O. Futile, Wid Childress, Paul Harrison and Brack Morrison with the blood hounds. These were soon joined by Sheriff Tol Kinsey and his posse of C. F. Gil

passed the Forrest ranch and were about a mile toward what is known as Dixie canyon, when they discovered a part of the band coming toward them. They turned and had started back to- ward the Forrest ranch, when they were surprised by a small bunch that had come down through a gap in the mountains. Daniels was killed by one of the first shots fired. Malcomb got off his horse to return the fire and his horse ran away. After he saw Dan- iels fall and the other part of the band started toward him, Malcomb sought cover in the brush and managed to get down into the wash and make his way to the ranch.
 At the ranch house were number of teamsters who were then engaged in hauling lumber into Bisbee from the Chiricahua mountains. They had camped there all night There were 10 or 12 in the party and they climb ed on top of the wagons and waited for the Indians to appear. It has al- ways been thought that the Indians intended to raid the Forrest ranch that morning but were prevented by the fact that Daniels and Malcomb had seen them And that the teamsters were there.
 Several hundred citizens of Tomb stone and Bisbee took up the chase of the Indians. followed them into Mex ico and were gone for nearly two weeks but were never able to get close enough to the renegades to get a shot at them.
 Later the Indians came back from Mexico and committed other depre- dations and murders.

Putting Down Edqs

WILLCOX-Dealers in the fluid commonly known as water glass" which is used extensively in preserv- ing eggs, say that an unusually num- Der of families now have treasure chests in the way of jars filled with eggs. We have sold four or five times as much water glass this year as ever before" said a well known dealer q think that nearly 90 per cent of the families in this vicinity have put down some eggs for the win ter, some only few dozen. but oth- CTS case or two. People are more thrifty. more watchful and saving than they used to be-
 Dealers say that the low price of eggs this year has. no doubt. been largely responsible for the increase in putting down eggs. but each year there are more and more who follow this plan. Skeptical housewives have become convinced that the eggs are about as good as fresh ones, provided that they are put away according to instructions, and kept in cool place. with the container as near air tight as possible. Judging from the amount of water glass sold for the purpose this spring so far. there will be more than 5000 eggs stored away in water glass in this part of the Sulphur Spring valley at about 25 cents a doz- en, io h" nscd when fresh eggs mount 10 abuU' three times that sum.
