George Burch Is Caught Driving On
 Wrong Side of Street.

After having given repeated notice obeyed by drivers of buggies and wagons passing along the streets of the city, Marshal Moore yesterday is sued definite instructions to bring in any offenders. There is a wise req son for the enforcement of this law and the marshal felt that there was no onger any excuse why drivers should not be forced to respect the ordinance.
 The first victim to be brought in was George Burch, a driver in the employ of Donofrio, the ice cream and candy merchant. The boy stated he knew it was contrary to the law, but that he forgot and crossed over because it seemed he could get back to the store a little quicker Motor cycle Policeman Thompson nabbed him almost in front of the city hall. Burch promised to appear in police court this afternoon for a hearing
 Marshal Moore explained yesterday just why special efforts were being made at this time to enforce this law. He said that Phoenix is constantly growing and the traffic in the down town streets is constantly on the in crease. There is no increase in the width of the streets. Unless every body driving along these streets adopts some rule te follow and sticks to it. there is bound to be much con- fusion, obstruction and possibly acci- dents. He feels that the best interests of every horse or automobile owner is followed by living up to the law.

Company B, N C. A. last night ] gave a rousing reception to Lieuten- 1 ant Lyman La Tourette and Sergeant | Charles Peterson, it's representatives on the Arizona rifle team that eom- peted. in the national rifle shoot at | Camp Perry.
 The boys took La Tourette and Peterson on their shoulders, carried them down to Donofrio's, bought them each a stick of candy, gave | three cheers for Company B and then went back to the armory, where ice cream and cake were distributed with a lavish hand
 Both of Company B's men did fine work at Camp Perry and their com rades who stayed behind made them feel that their efforts were appre- ciated. We're greater heroes here than we were in Camp Perry, laughed Lieutenant LaTourette. The lieutenant arrived home yester- day morning while Sergeant Peterson came back several days ago. The boys decided to do something to show them what the company as a whole thought of them
 This year Arizona made second place in Class c. That entitled every member of the team to a medal. Pet erson wore his medal and as a re suit was the exposure of envious eyes all evening. LaTourette was so mod est that he left his decoration at home.
 ''Tickled" is the only word that will describe how the boys of B acted when they welcomed LaTourette and Peterson. They were like school boys The suggestion that they both be treated to candy was received with enthusiasm and carried out with ala crity.
 After the ice cream and cake had ben disposed of Captain Earl w. Hil called upon Lieutenant LaTOurette to tell how it was done. The lieutenant made a short talk, telling of the diffI-
