CRUSADE ON
 P00L HALLS Sunday Closing is to be
 Demanded YOUTHS ID BE EXCLUDED .ES s-< t. Petition to the City Council In Circulation-Petition- CTS Do Not Ask For An Increase of the License On Halls
YOUTHS TO BE EXCLUDED

A petition was put in circulation
 yesterday which when presented to
 the council. will ask that the proprie-
 tors of pool halls close their places
 of business between 12 o'clock Satur-
 day night and opening time Monday
 morning. Not only will the Sunday closing ordinance be asked for, but the
 petition will further request that all boys under the age of 21 years will be prosecuted who are found loitering around such places. It was the gen eral understanding yesterday that while the petition asks for two spe- cific concessions from the council. that there is probability that the licenses for pool halls will be raised and that there will be q strict inc imposed upon all halls remaining open after F o'clock at night during the week
 The petition being circulated Yes terday is presumed to be the result of the recent arrest of a pool hall proprietor and several of the inmates on a charge of gambling. It was stated by or.e of the cay officials that whenever gambling took place pidCe Tn any or the pool halls that it was nearly always after the hour of midnight and that if tlie ordinance would make it plain that all halls should be -'psed aJ 12 DC. ,c'l il wcuId in a great measure put q stop to the gambling feature
 IL is not known just how the new council will act in the matter of pool hall regulations. It will br re- called that the present members of the council. who ale serving their second term and who wore in office at the time that the pool nall ordinance was up for revision over I ,'ir ago, were at that time influenced to low'I the age limit at which boys might frequent such places by petition literally signed. It is not a matter of record, but it will )e remembered by those who were present at that time that the prOprietOrs of halls who were present to support the petition, pledged themselves to see to it that no minors were allowed in their places and that .,ambliug under no would he peTLiit'ei.

INSANITY
 SUSPECTED 4 Tempe Man Has Money
 On the Brain WOULD BUY WITHOUT CASH Peculiar Case of Walter flight - Taken to Phoe- nix Last Night Pending a Hearing Before the Pro bate Court
WOULD BUY WITHOUT CASH

Walter Flight. who for some years
 has been q resident of this section.
 was taken to Phoenix last evening
 by Constable Estrada. where he will
 be held in the county jail pending
 an examination by the probate court
 as to his sanity. There is no ques-
 tion in the minds of the many Tempe and Mesa people with whom he has come in contact during the past
 week as to his sanity. They are all of the opinion that he is mental ly unbalanced. His action would readily indicate that
 Flights case is rather peculiar one. A couple of weeks ago he be- gan negotiations for the purchase of the Strong threshing outfit, with which he has been working for some little time In order to make the deal it was necessary for him to raise a thousand dollars or so. Act ing in entire good faith, several diff ferent parties made an effort to make the loan for him. but they soon learned that there was something wrong with the man. He felt no about asking any and every one to go on his note. offer ing no security whatever. After spending several days without re- suits in trying to make a loan to handle the threshing outfit, his ac- tiOns became more and more sus- picious and he spent the better part of his time buying alfalfa seed from different farmers It was nothing unusual for him to make a deal with a man for his crop and then ask the man he bought of to go on a note with him in order that he might get the cash for the initial payment Needless to say, his pur

chasCs of alfalfa seed on those terms were decidedly few and far apart. The alfalfa bee leaving his head for the time being. he next turned his attention to the purchase of town property. and for a couple of days led one or two local real estate dealers lively chase A couple of them, before learning of his peculiar state of mind devoted considerable time to him and were on the verge of selling him property when it developed that he had no funds or hope of getting them.
 During all these imaginary trans actions flight was giving orders on the A. J. Peters company. which were being turned down as fast as they were issued. He caught one firm for $87 on one of these orders and was promptly arrested on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. He squared the ac- count and the charge was dismissed Several other merchants suffered similarly and are still wondering where they are going to get off at Some little time ago it became ap- parent that he was absolutely ire sponsible. but as he seemed to be harmless. no one took steps to prefer charge of insanity against him.
 His operations became so bother some. however, that yesterday some thing had to be done. He did not confne his work to Tempe alone, but transacted a good deal of imaginary business in Mesa. Yesterday morn ing. when arrested, he claimed that he had made arrangements for funds at the Salt River Valley bank of Mesa, but when the marshal 'phoned there for information he v.s told that not only was there no account there, but that a check for $50 had just been turned down.
 Finally, as much for the mans own good as for the protection of the public. he was taken into GUS tody. It is very probable that he will be sent to the asylum, pending his recovery. At the present time he is perfectly rational on most sub jects. The money question. however, seems to be the one on which his mind dwells at all times. and his actions during the past two weeks would indicate that on that subject at least he is insane.
 It is hoped that course of treat ment will put him on his feet again. SD to speak. He has always been regarded here as an honest, hard working man, and until recently has enjoyed the confidence and respect Of the community.

H|GHT'S EXPLORATIONS
 OF A FINANCIAL KIND

Mrs. $. Whitehead, accompanied by
 her sister, Mrs. R. Roche, the latter
 resident of Tempe. presented a
 check on the Salt River Valley bank amounting to fifty dollars yesterday
 morning, signed by Walter Flight, and payment was refused on account
 of there being no balance in the
 bank to the check makers credit
 Hardly had the check been turned down before a phone message from Tempe conveyed the information that number of checks had been made in that place on the Salt River Val ley bank and further that the man had been placed under arrest.
 The incident leading up to the is- suing the check to Mrs. Roche of Tempe is rather interesting. Mrs. Roche some time ago placed two residence properties in Tempe in the hands of real estate agents for sale. She came to Mesa few days agp for Il visit with her sister, Mrs. s. White head, living three quarters f d mile east of town. few days ago a Tempe real estate dealer brought Flight to this place with the intention of purchasing the property. The price of the property was thirty two hun dred dollars. seventeen hundred dol lars of which was to be paid upon an execution of the deed and the showing of a clear abstract of title Flight, according tJ Mrs. Whitehead insisted on paying fifty dollars tJ bind the bargain According to Mrs her sister rXDiained to the man that there was no need of malt- ing d slight payment to hold the bar gain and that the abstract could be seen by making application at the Tempe bank However. Flight con tinued to insist that the fifty dollar check be accepted He stated that he was very anxious to secure pos session of the property as he eX pected to leave this section in q few days. and that when he returned he would bring his bride with him. No more was thought of the matter until the check was pronounced worthless yesterday morning.
 Further investigation proved that flight called at the Salt River Valley bank a few days ago and stated that he expected to immediately make a large deposit. However. the deposit las failed to materialize and the bank did not care to honor the check. However. the real problem is how could a man hope to realize on a check issued as part payment on piece of property which would re- Iuire a week or two at least to change hands.

TEMPE YOUNG MANS
 LOS ANGELES WEDDING
HaIbert Miller and Miss Della SchaaI
 Married Yesterday.

Again in time of need. when news is d scarce article. the marriage license column of the Los Angeles papers comes to the rescue It was noted in the aforesaid mentioned column of thet Examiner yesterday that the day before a license had been issued to Halbert Miller of this place and Miss Della Schaal of Doug las. It was learned in rather round about way that the wedding took place yesterday. though the de tails of the affair are entirely lack ing.
 The news of the wedding will be no great surprise for Tempe people. for when MT. Miller left for the coast q few weeks ago it was known that Miss Schaal vxs also there, and wise ones put two and two together and figured that a wedding was due to take place in the near future. The fact that Mrs Miller. Halbert's mother. left for the coast the first of the week strength ened the suspicion. It is presumed that she was present at the cere- mony. It is understood that MT and Mrs. Miller will spend honey moon trip at Catalina island and other Southern California points and will return to Tempe some time within the next month to make this their permanent home.
 Both are very well known in Tempe and are numbered amoong the ,Wn's most popular young people. The bride attended the normal for sev- cral years and graduated NVith the class of 1908. She has since been teaching in the Douglas city schools During her attendance at the normal she was prominent and popular young Eidy. taking an active part in athletic and other afflirs of the school
