TUCSON. MARSHAL ENFORCES HE
 STATUTES

TUCSON, Feb 2O.-With the va grants all locked up or frightened out of the city, the sale of liquor in the redhght district stopped as far as can be ascertained, automObilists. motorcycTists and bicycle riders try ing to be very good, and only one burglary reported in several weeks, City Marshal Arnold is entering new fields Late Wednesday afternoon he notified all of the saloons and cigar stands to cut out all forms of card playing and dice throwing, and yes terday there was nothing of the sort going on.
 Naturally there was a great howl sent up by the proprietors of cigar stands who are accustomed to throw" with customers for cigars, # for nothing more. The saloons also made a protest against being shut off from social games of cards with nothing at stake except drinks The individual members of the city coun- cil were approached on the subject, while a strong delegation waited upon the mayor The protestants were in formed that the marshal was doing the thing on his own initiative ana the city court was the only referen- dunn.
 Although many think that there is no harm in the sort of gaming which has been going on, the city marshal contends that if an ordinance is not going to be enforced it ought to be revoked. He therefore expresses an intention to enforce an ordinance against the playing of any game of cards, dice, or any other device, for money, checks. chips. or other things of representative value or representa- tive of value in any public place or any room adjacent to a public place. The penalty is a fine of from Sz5 to $500 or imprisonment for six mOathsi or both fine and imprisonment.
