A LECTURE TOMORROW
 AT NORMAL AUDITORIUM
To Which the Public is Cordially
 Invited.

Tomorrow morning at II o'clock Dr. J N. Mccormack will deliver lecture at the normal auditorium This gentleman is regarded as the greatest authority at the present time on hygiene and preventative medi- cines. He advocates the theory Of preventing sickness. rather than cur ing diseases after they have been contracted. He tells people how to keep from getting sick, rather than how to get well after they have be- come sick. His is the old theory, That an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.''
 Dr Mccormack is now travelling all over the country delivering lec- lures on this and kindred subjects and is under the auspices of the American Medical Association. Mere ly from the fact that this lecture is to be delivered at the normal. il should not be judged that it is for the benefit of students only. The public at large is invited to attend without cost and it is hoped that there will be a large attendance. His subject is one of vital importance and one that is interesting to all

 Tucson also lost an excellent OppOr- tunity to advertise her resources when the fair week was allowed to pass with out a suitable sign being placed on the large business block, the handsomest in Phoenix. which is nearing completion at the corner of Washington and Cen ter streets. and which is built entire ly of Tucson pressed bricks
 Tucson poses as a city of homes to prospective residents and homeseekers. and in this connection We enjoy decided advantages over other Arizona cities. though there was nothing at the fair to show that any pride was taken in our city schools. or that they ranked with the other schools of the territory. Though it has been published that the Tucson schools have the highest enroll ment of any in the territory. and though we believe they are up to the average in efficiency. neither our grade schools nor our high school-eXcept by a score of 19 to in favor of Phoenix in the recent football game-were rep resented at the fair. As for the univer- sity. in which all good citizens of the territory should be interested a publi- city booth should at least be maintained on the fair grounds, with appropriate literature and photographs.

Check to the Auto Speed Craze.
Two recent decisions by the New
York court Of appeals put a new as.
pect upon auto speeding. Reduced to
its bare bones, the plea Of the reckless
autoist has been that he couldn't be
more careful and keep up his rate of
speed. All sorts of reasons have been
{ erred for keeping Il breakneck pace
regardless of trains, trolley cars. horse
vehicles and pedestrians in the road.
One Of the decisions referred to holds
that it is more imperative for persons
running an auto to stop ut Il railway
crossing aAd look and listen than when
using horse drawn vehicles. The auto
won't get scared at the engine. and. be-
sides. collision may injure passengers
on the train. The other decision is to
the effect that every passenger OF the
front seat of an auto must exercise
care and protest against the taking of
dangerous chances by the chauffeur in
charge. Ii is about time that autoists
were shown that the highways are not
for speeding pleasure to the exclusion
of everything else, and these decisions
are a good beginning.

Death By Fire

\ shocking calamity occurred in
Garrison last Sunday night when
Malcolm MacGrcgor met an awful
death by suiYocation and fire in his
house in the southeastern part of
town, where he had been living
alone. The fire alarm sounded
about eleven o'clock and the men
who rushed to the scene found
that the blaze had started inside
the building, from which flames
and dense volumes of smoke were
pouring. Right into the thickest
of the smoke the boys worked with
heroic efforts, tearing down the
side Of the shack where the bed
was known to stand. which was a
quicker way to gain entrance than
through the doors, as they were Sc
curely locked from the inside.
When the empty bed was dragged
out it gave rise to the hope that
Mace regor was not in the house,
but on breaking in the doors, the
unfortunate mans body was found
