WONEN'S TENDER AND LOVING HEART FAILS ITO BACK PROSECUTION
From Thursdays DalIy)

Antonio Camille Sanchez looks about as much like Mexican as George w. P Hunt does the next governor of Arizona, which is to say, not at all, not at all.
 But Antonio speaks nothing but the Mexican language. He was born at Nogales, Sonora. He denies that his ''parientes" were Spaniards. They were Mexicans, he declares firmly and with corroborative gestures of the hands, shoulders, lips, chin, head and eyes.
 He got out of jail yesterday.
 "Onde sta mi navaja?" he asked politely, but with i1l-restrained jo- viality.
 "Where," Grant Carter asked Geo. Payne, "is his navarra?" thus proving that Grant is a better deputy sheriff than linguist
 There wasn't any knife, and it's unimportant, anyway, but shows-it shows.
 Working back along the history of the case, one comes among some of the causes. Antonio had been ac- cused by a Mexican lady of having possessed himself of a watch belong ing to her and valued at $40. He was just getting loose from one little official difficulty, when Deputy County Attorney Westervelt juggled the telephone bit, and with the aid of Justice of the Peace McLane and Mr. Carter, had Antonio down in the justice court ready to be hazed back into durance on this here watch charge. An interpreter conversed about the matter with Senor Campilo- Sanchez, who is sprightly young man of trcinte anos file says" the interpreter says, that he deedn' did it. Thees watch his watch He's lent it to feller and he lef' town. He don't gotty thees watch now All gone by-by."
 Mir. Westervclt was not long in accepting the explanation. Through the mind of the deputy district prosecutor, there passed a file of facts somewhat as follows:
 This woman once before accused this man of crime, to-wit: s1amming her on the jaw. And when we had him up here to put through the mill, she wcakened-her mercurial nature, assisted by her woman's heart, changed and relyented and she wouldn't prosecute. No reason to believe she will prosecute this case So-
 And aloud, the district deputy hounder of criminals said that the case is dismissed. Get to huphuphup out of here"
 Which getting was accompanied by a joyous smile on the part of MT. Antonio Campilo-Sanchez and play ful boot by Mr. Carter.

CASTLE ROAD
 NEEDS PUT UP
 ID THE PEOPLE
Montezuma's Castle Going to Waste as Far as Many Sight Seers are Concerned by Lack of Facilities for Visitors.
CFrom Thursdays Daily)

Montezuma Castle, said by govern ment experts to be the best pre- served group of prehistoric cliff ruins on the continent, is one of the chief interesting points in Yavapai county. Throughout the year, hundreds of in dividuals make the trip to the Verde valley with the chief point in their tour being that to the castle and then to the well. The general comment of those who visit the ruins seems to be that while improvement has been made in the road leading to the castle, the installation of ladders, etc, over what existed ten years ago, there is a real need for an improved road leading to the castle; with some accommodations provided for auto mobile parties on the grounds ad- jacent to the castle; the approaches improved, and this monument which daes back to time immemorial given the recognition which it deserves
 Caretaker Thompson has request ed the cooperation of the chamber of commerce toward securing these necessary improvements and the or ganization has lent its help. It is gen orally understood that the chief of national parks will visit Montezuma Castle i'll the future, but in the mean time something should be done to improve the road leading to the castle.
 The following communication from Clark D. Schmidt, a patient at the U. s. Veterans hospital, Whipple Barracks, shows the interest which the stranger takes in this ancient ruin:
 q made an interesting trip last Sunday to the ancient cliff dwellings and understand that the government is going to repair the ruins and make a road I am writing this to make a suggestion that the repair work should be done at once or at an early date. An iron stairway to the diff ferent rooms on the outside should be constructed instead of ladders so that it is more easy 10 go up and sec the different rooms Also that women and children could walk up to it more comfortably, and when the automobile road is made, that 1t should not be cut too close to the ruins but built down to the valley below and then an iron stairway built, after the ruins have been re- paired. I am suggesting this to the chamber of commerce to bring be- fore the government, or that they take 1t up with the governor to bring before the proper Washington heads, as the effect would be better than if I would write the govern ment From an interested tourist. (Signed) Clark D. Schmidt"

 "We want a good representation from this side of the mountain" '" stated Robert Cornell, and those who contemplate making the trip should list their names with the sec retary, so if they have extra seats others desiring to go who may not own cars will have the opportunity. Let's show them we're there when it comes to boosting their game also"
