IB DISAPPEARED
Mrs. Jessie Ledford. a widow and
mother of a 22-months-old son, is des
titute in Phoenix, a result, she claims,
of trickery by a man who had sup
posedly given her employment. She
pave the man's name as C. H. Puller.
All of her worldly possessions, con
sisting of a trunk filled with personal
eUects, were taken by the man when
he left Phoenix Saturday night, she
alleges. His trickery left her without
wearing apparel for herself or child
save the clothes they had on ,as well
as many keepsakes of immeasurable
value to her.
Her story was told to Sheriff Mont
gomery yesterday. She had come to
Phoenix in search of work from Braw
ler. Calif., and had inserted an adver
tisement in a local newspaper, seekin
employment. She had obtained a room
at the Williams hotel at Five Points.
, In due course of time, her advertise
ment was answered by a man who
pave his name as C. IL Fuller. He ex
plained that he had a large ranch near
Merced, Calif., and needed a house
keeper to take care of the ranch home
and look after his two sons, both of
whom were going to school.
Believing that the position offered
her an opportunity to have her son,
with her, Mrs." Ledford accepted. They
were to go to Merced Saturday even
ing.
When her trunk was packed, she
said. Fuller sent an expressman to haul
it to the depot, saying that he would
trouble. Then he made arrangements!
for Mrs. Ledford to go to Chandler,
where he was to meet her later in the
afternoon.
Accordingly, he purchased a ticket
over the Union Auto stage line and
put her and her little son aboard. That
was at 1 o'clock Saturday afternoon.
She arrived at Chandler shortly after
3 o'clock.
Fuller had previously told her, she
said, that the train for Merced passed
through Chandler and they would
board it there. When he did not ar
rive by 5 o'clock, the woman made in
quiry and was informed that there was
r.o railroad passing through Chandler.
She became suspicious and notified
Phoenix police, she said, to intercept
the trunk.
"I called the Phoenix police station
shortly after 5 o'clock and gave them
a description of my trunk, asking them
to hold it until I arrived. Of course.
Fuller had the check. This they failed
to do."
In consequence, when she returned
to Phoenix late Saturday evening, she
found herself without funds or clothing.
"I can't see why he should do sUch a
thing," she said tearfully last evening.
"It's been hard enough for me to get
along without having all my thing's
stolen. I hav been obliged to earn
my way and that of my little boy ever
since he was three months old. His
lather died when he was that age, and
I tried so hard to keep him with me
since, and bring him up as he should
be.
lf I could Just make money enough
to go back to my father and mother,"
she sobbed. Her parents, she said, live
in Kansas, her father being a laborer.
She described her trunk as of the
wardrobe variety, with the lock broken
and tied with rope. Her initials, J. M,
L. are on the side, she said.
Investigation by the sheriffs office
disclosed the fact that Fullr had pur
chased a ticket for Merced, checked a
trunk, and boarded a westbound train
at Glendale Saturday night.

GLENDALE NEWS
GLENDALE, Nov. 28 Now that the
peak of the cotton picking season is
over the Arizona Cotton Growers' as
sociation has discontinued the shipping
of pickers from Mexico into the Glen
dale district. Since some time in the-
summer, when arrangements were
made to ship laborers into the valley
to aid the farmers in picking their cot
ton, some 2,000 pickers were shipped
into the Glendale district, besides a
number of Indians from the Navajo
reservation in the northern part of the
state.
Also, there has been a great deal of
congestion at the gins, but the point
has now been reached when the farm-
era can get quicker action on account
of the less cotton being hauled in and
the gins will have a chance to catch up.
Accepts Position
C. A. Novis, resident of Glendale, has
accepted a position in Phoenix in the
shoe department of Korricks' store,
just helping out during the rush.

1 MINING CLAIMS
Despite the fact that a bill exempt
ing unpatented mining claims from as
sessment work died in committee last
spring, 6trenuous efforts will be made
by members of congress from western
states to obtain the enactment of such
a measure before January 1. The
measure ,it is hoped, wil be one of the
first to be considered at the coming
session of congress, which convenes
on December 6.
Congressmen Carl Hayden, who
leaves this week for "Washington, said
yesterday:
"Last spring the committee on mines
and mining of the house of represen
tatives deiinitely reiused to report a
bill waiving the requirement of annual
assessment work on mining claims for
the present year. Notwithstanding this
adverse vote, it is certalf that the
western members of congress.' will
make every effort to induce thecom
mittee to rescind its former action and
favorably report such a measure be
cause conditions have materially
changed in the meantime.
"At the beginning of the present year
copper was at a fair price, while now
there Is no market for the red metal.
Gold mining has been greatly cur
tailed, and the same is true of other
metals, due to the world-wide business
depression which we are now experi
encing. Under such circumstances
most of the owners of mining claims
are finding it extremely difficult to
obtain the necessary funds for assess
ment work, and I believe that they are
fully justified in asking for a further
exemption for this year. 1
'It should not be difficult to pass
such a bill through the .senate, be
cause the west has a greater propor
tior.ate influence in that body than in
the house. Six of the ten members of
the senate committee on mining are
1rom the west, but unfortunately there
is but one member of the house com
mittee, Hon. M. H. Welling of Utah,
who comes from a district containing
metal mines. Our chief difficulty has
always been that the mining commit
tee of the house is made up of mem
bers from districts which produce
nothing but coal or oil. It is hard to
make them understand the real service
to the nation which the prospector has
rendered, and that in times of financial
distress, relief from assessment work
is lustifiable. With but little appre
ciation of its risks, they talk as ihough
metal mining was usually profitable,
and seem to think that to discover ore
means an assured fortune. ' :
"In 1916 the house passed a bill ex
emetine soldiers serving on the Mexl
can border from assessment work on
their mining claims. In 1917 and 1918
this relief was made general because
all available labor was needed for war
work. Owing to opposition in tne
house, it was late in the fall of 1919
before an exempting bill for that year
could be passed, the argument against
i h.(r.r that hostilities were over, ana
the country should therefore be placed
Yor iiasia Fortunately con
gress remained almost continuously in
session, so that there was time wwin
t,m th nrmosition:
Congress adjourned last June, ana
will not reconvene until uecemoer .
The holiday recess usually Degins
about December 21, so there win oe
only about two weeks in which to get
an exemption bill for 1920 out of the
committees and through the houses for
the approval of the president, ii. is
much easier to diock legislation m"
to pass it. In view of the adverse at
titude of the house committee, frank
ness compels me to say that the out
look is not very7 encouraging, but all
those who are interested m minms
claims can be sure that tneir repre
sentatives in congress will, as they
have in the past, do everything possi
ble to bring about tnis mucn-neeueu
relief."

MESA, Nov. 28. Bettering last
:ar's campaign by nearly ?200, 'the
American Red Cross membership drive
in Mesa came to a close on Saturday
night with a total of )494 to the credit
of the workers for the week. One
hundred seventeen dollars was realized
from Saturday's work on the streets by
Mrs. Ruth Huber, assisted by Mrs. H.
D. Evans, Miss Francis, Miss Stella
Bonwell, Miss Frances AVebb, Miss
Margaret Webb and Miss Rachael Or-
duna.
All expectations for the week's drive
were lived up to according to those in
charge. The results were more than
expected by many for in comparison
to the money conditions of the two
years it is surprising that the returns
this winter should have eclipsed those
of a year ago.
Credit for the ' success of the drive
here goes to the number of women who
gave of their time on the various days
of the week to assist in the member
ship solicitation work. At every min
ute of each day in the week with the
exception of Thanksgiving there was
somebody on duty at the headquarters
booth and numberless times a corps of
assistants canvassed the streets in all
directions to add to the subscriptions.
Wednesday was the record day of the
week, when $140 was collected by Mrs.
R. A. Kingsbury and assistants; -Monday
came second when Mrs. J. B. Nel
son was in charge, and Saturday was
third. ;
Show on December 9

Legion is arranging for the presenta
tion here on Thursday night, December
9, of 'Uncle Sam's Nieces." This num
ber replaces the Jubilee Singers, whch

oared for the show and the post will

Petitions addressed to the common
council of Mesa requesting the annexa
tion to Mesa of Stewart addition and
Stewart annex, sub-divisions bordering
the corporate limits of Mesa on the
south, will be circulated through the
two districts on. Monday. The petitions
were drawn up last week following a
meeting of property owners In the ad
ditions when the desire to be taken
into the city limits was expressed, and
starting Monday a canvass will be
made, of all property owners in the
districts affected to secure their signa
tures to the petitions requesting the
annexation. Stewart addition came
into existence several years ago and
since the division has grown., rapidly,
561 people now living there according
to a recent count. The land agents
who opened the division have supplied
city water in the property but before
other improvements can be made
will be necessary for the property to
come into the city limits. Electricity,
gas and sewerage wil be available in
case the annexation is made and it I
understood that arrangements will be
started at once for the construction of
cement sidewalks in order that the free
delivery of mail to be inaugurated
January 1 may also be available.
