FATAL PLUNGE OF PROMINENT MEN TO
BROPHY TOLD IN Be ON PROGRAM OF
HEARING ON WILL INDUSTRIAL CONG.

Details hitherto unknown were
brought to light during the hearing
for the probate of the will of the late
William H. Brophy, former Phoenix
and Bisbee banker, who was drowned
in the Gulf of California November
13, last, The petition, heard before
Superior Judge Frank c. Lyman, was
brought by the widow Mrs. Ellen
Brophy, through her attorney, John
E. Sanders of Bisbee.
A number of witnesses were called.
The first was Edward NJ. Mather of
Nogales, who was with Mr.. Brophy
on the fishing and hunting trip In
opening, he stated that eight were in
the party as follows: Leslie Hardy,
Otto Herold, DR.. V. H. Smelker, Fred
Van Mourick, E. B. Sloan, Robert
Howell, Mr.. Brophy and himself.
He stated that they were on voy-
age to Tiburon island and interme-
diate points in the gulf Since leav-
ing the port of Guaymas early in the
morning, they had ben fishing, he
said, and only casual attention had
been paid to the lines thrown over
llC oAhOO u1I1A uuohJ ICA nIllSS OlL
shore, when Mr.. Brophy and Mr.. How
ell went to the stern of the ship to
haul them in for the night, taking the
port and starbOard sides, respectively.
In a lurch of the vessel, Mr.. Brophy
was thrown against the rail and in
trying to recover his equilibrium, his
feet slipped on the leck, wet from
the spray. On the return lurch of
the boat, he was thrown over the side.
The ship was brought to a stop in a
few moments and the other members
of the party called Mr.. Brophy. He
answered seven or eight times in a
clear, strong voice. as if he had COM
plete control of himself.
The propellers were reversed mean
while and his later calls seemed to
be close by. Dark had completely
fallen by the time the ship had re-
turned and the search was made un-
der trying difficulties. The party and
crew searched the surrounding water
for 80 minutes or so, but it was be-
coming rough, as the choppiness of
the sea had increased with the minu-
tes, and they were forced to abandon
the S6dC0 IOI the ulSut Inc WITNESS
said he and his companions favored
continuing, but the captain of the yes
sci opposed such a course. pointing
out that his ship was shipping heavy
seas while she stood idly by and the
winds coming up, predicted a storm
more or less serious proportions.
Fenwick G. Hamilton of Douglas
as witness On behalf of the petition
er, stated that he went to Guaymas
November Is and that he searched for
the body until November 30 The
search his still on, he said, with light
house tenders constantly on the look
out A reward of $1,000 for the re-
covery of the body at any time has
been offered. He said that the gulf
is shark infested and that it is doubt
full that the body will ever be found.
The signature of the will was rec
ognized by Everett E. Ellingwood, at
torney, formerly of Bisbee, but now
of Phoenix, and the signature on the
codicil was recognized by Albert H
Lewis of Los Angeles. The amount
of property contained in the docu-
ments and the bequests was not made
known

HISTORICAL FACTS
ABOUT baby STATE

Arizona was the fOrty-eight state,
and the last State, to be admitted in
to the Union. This territory, so vast
ly rich in mineral, stock and FARMING
areas, was set off from New Mexico
as a Territory on February 24,lS65.
1t entered the Union as separate
State on February IA, 1922 According
to the Southern Historical Papers, on
January 1S, 1862, and approved by
President Davis, the Confederate States
Congress organized Arizona into Con-
federate Territory This territory took
in the whole ante-bellum area OF New
Mexico (of which Arizona was then a
parD. excepting the northwest corner
living north of the Colorado River.
Since Arizona was carved out OF
New Mexico during the Civil War, IL
will be seen at once that its primitive
history must be identical with that OF
New Mexico. The first real explorers
were Spaniards from Old Mexico, who
visited it about the midle of the six
teenth century. However, they found
it inhabited by the Aztecs whose his
tory in this territory dips back far be-
yond any written record. For that far
race Their massive acqueducts and
the cliff dwellings are silent monu-
ments of mighty past.
Coronado made his first appearance
in 1910 San Gabriel was founded in
1898, which was deserted for the es-
tablishment of Santa Fe about 1905 by
Juan de Onate He was a wealthy re-
sident of Zacatecas, who married the
great granddaughter of Montezuma
the powerful Aztec chieftain. So far
back is the reach of these primitive
days that the deepest mystery hovers
over it all.
New Mexico was ceded to the United
States by Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1S4S
1t was organized as the Territory of
New Mexico in 1850 On February
"a, 1868, Arizona was organized as a
Territory out of New Mexico. On
February IA, 1912, Arizona was adopt
ed into the Union as a State.
Arizona is said to have derived its
name from a ranch in Sonora which
the Papago Indians called "Ariconas.'
BY that they meant a place of few
springs.
There is no record of any nickname
borne by Arizona.
In 1868, the year Arizona was set of
from New Mexico, she adopted "Ditat
Deus" which means God enriches.
AS the State Motto.

Illiteracy The Sore Thumb OF Our
Nation

Loss in production is not the only
bugbear of illiteracy. NumberlesS ac-
cidents and casualties occur every
year in the dangerous occupations
among foreign w0"illnen. 1t is esli-
mated that one half the accidents in
factories with a resultant loss of $780,
900 per day to the industries, are due
to ignorance of the language. There
are more than 10000 workmen in
New York State who cannot speak
English. Over $11,000,900 were paid
out in this State above in 1916 in ac-
cordance with the Workman's Com
persation Law This amount would
be increased to $35,00O,000 if the loss
in wages, doctors bills, turnovers and
law administration were added. Thou
sands of illiterates are poured into
the mines each year with dire results.
Many of the mines take the precau-
tion of printing signs of warning and
instructions in the various languages
but a man who cannot read his own
language is not aided in any great
measure by these. Statistics show
that accidents in the iron and steel
industries are more numerous among
the non-English speaking workers
than among the ones who can speak
English The Ford Motor Company
officials state accidents have fallen of
"a per cent in number since they
started their first school in 1914.

Heat and It's Substitutes

Generally speaking, meat is from
one half to three fourths water and
from one sixth to one fifth protein.
The amount of fat varies from one
tenth to as much as one half or more
in the case of the very fat meats. As
rule the greater amount of fat the
less that amount Of water present.
The walls of the muscle fibcrs and
the connective tissue are protein, and
still other proteins are dissolved IN
the meat juices Meat contains con-
siderable iron and phosphorus but not
much calcium. 1t contains some vitam-
ms. Fat-soluble A is found in some
special glands and organd like sweet
bread and liver, and in some of the
softer or yellow fats, especially Of
beef Water soluble b is found in lin
tied amounts in muscle tissue and in
larger amounts in heart, kidney, brain
and liver. Meat, especially that which
has been cooked, cannot be depended

WHY DO THEY?

The Warner Bros, production,
"Why Girls Leave Home which is
now showing at the Idle Hour The
atre most decidedly comes under the
head Of big pictures Not only be-
cause it is Of greater length than
ten average screen product or be-
cause its settings cast and other adj
iuncts to the story are or most
elaborate scale but because it is big
in theme and direct in treatment.
The theme may be readily realized
from the title Of the picture and it
is a problem that many parents have
been called upon to face Statistics
are often boresome but the fact that
in New York City alone the Bureau
of Missing Persons reports $4,000
girls lost in a year, gives one much
cause for reflection.
Strange as it may seem, the suave
polished villain Of popular conception
is not the main reason, in fact he Is
a negligible quantity, The real rea-
son, "Why Girls Leave Home is
mainly the parents" The produc-
crs Of the picture have selected two
specific instances which, because of
their wide contrast, cover a wide
range. These two stories develop
side by side through a most mastery
construction Of the scenario and af-
ford sold entertainment every min
ute.

Extractives give meat its characters
tic flavor, but have almost no food
value, so that clear meat broths,
which contain little except those eX-
practives, should be used merely to

nutritious as the most expensive tefld-

meat and for much longer time.
Great economy i, the use of meat may
be gained by serving it less often, by
using the cheaper cuts and leftover
trimmings and organs, and by extend
ing the flavor Of meat by combining
it with cereals and vegetables.
Fish is much like meat in its struc-
ture and composition and might we'll

should not be kept for any length of
time unless canned or frozen.
Eggs are a valuable source OF pro-
TEN, and have very much the same
food value as meat so that they are
not necessary at the same meal. Eggs
furnish fat in the oil of the yolk
which contains large amounts Of the
fat-soluble vitamin. They also fur
nish much iron and phosphorus, but
like meat, only small amount of cal
cium. If eggs are not included in the
daily ration the iron requirement of
the body is not likely to be met.
While new laid eggs have flavor not
to be had from any others, eggs prop
erly preserved to not lose any of their
, nutritive value.

Cheese is another valuable source of
protein as we'll as of calcium and
phosphorus. One pound of American
Cheese represents the protein and fat
of a gallon of average milk. Cottage
cheese is another valuable and econo-
mical meat substitute. Both cottage
cheese and meat contain approx
mately 20 per cent of protein.
The legumes are characterized by
their high protein content. They are
not only richer in protein than other
vegetables, but when dry they con-
tain a higher percentage of protein
than meat does. On account of their
additional high carbohydrate content
in general their fuel value is greater.
Meat fat enough to equal the dry le-
gumes in energy value would be be-
