INDIANA JUDGE HAS \
NEW TEST FOR VAGRANTS

Munice, Ind.-Judge Frank Feeley
of City Court has applied a new test
to men picked up by the police as
vagrants and who classify themselves
as honest workmen. 1t is known as
the hand test"
When a supposed vagrant comes
before the court the judge requires
him to exhibit his hands, and if the
hands appear to be those of one who
does not labor the prisoner is reason-
ably certain to be convicted. 'I've
been working hard for a long time,
but have no work just now" said Ira
Bracken when arraigned on minor
charge
Lets see your hands," said the
judge, and Bracken showed them.
Just like velvet-thirty days and the
usual fine and costs" said the court.

CAN'T GIVE HORSE WHISKY.
Veterinary is Denied Liquor Prescrip
tions I'm Dry TERRITORY.

Columbus, O.-Can a veterinary,
duly registered write a prescription
for whisky to be given sick horse
and have that prescription honored
in dry territory? was the query
given by the State Board of Pharmacy
to Attorney General Hogan.
Attorney General Hogan says II a
horse gets sick in dry territory the
proper way is to take him into the
next county where 1t is wet and have
him treated there.
That the prescription for the horse
might be refilled and the liquor not
get to the horse is one of the reasons
for the ruling.

J. 1. OVERLOOK GETS
 PLACE VACATED BY COUNCILMAN KINNEY
Stand Patter Succeeds Bull Mooser as Member of City Dads Or
 ganiZatiCn

It Is now Alderman Overlook. There Is no longer a vacancy in the city council for that body has met and Sc. lected a successor to J. w Kinney resigned. A progressive is succeeded by an out and out republican.
 The selection of l.. J. Overlook 10 succeed J. w. Kinney as alderman from the third ward will give general satisfaction in the city by reason of the fact that he is a we'll known bus mess man, long a resident and a prominent property holder. His fam iliarity with the city affairs and it's needs makes him competent to act for the tax payers b the conduct Of the city business.
 It was to be expected that a repub- hcan city council would select a re publican to succeed a republican and so preserve the majority they won at the polls. This has been done. But dividing the council along the new alignment of parties il. will be found that there is an equal division be- tween the three, two democrats two progressives and two republicans, thus Taft gains one in the city adminis- tration of Bisbee.

once more the total for the day was above 100000 in the fly swatting crusade. The million and a quarter mark was passed and a good start made toward the million and half. the total being close to I.3OO,000. Richard Philips and Tom Cannon were the star peformers for the day, the former materially strengthening his hold on second place and pass ing the quarter million mark. and the latter going up into fourth place again.
 The committee that has the anti fly crusade in hand had to turn down a request yesterday. It would have established a bad precedent to grant it, and might have resulted in ~hy trust" in Bisbee, a combination to pool returns and so put individuals out of competition.

Pedro Pacheco is expected to be arraigned before T. s. Commissioner Taylor Monday on a charge of snug gling horses and mescal from Sonora to this side of the line having been caught with the goods by Mounted Inspector Luke Short in Skeleton Canyon and brought to Douglas where he was jailed pending his transporta' ton to this city which is expected to be Monday.
 When Pacheco was arrested by Short the prisoner did not deny his attempt to smuggle three horses over the line. It was suspected that the horses were not his but he stoutly maintained ownership of the animals and also of the jug of mescal which he had. Besides the liquor that he carried which was subject to duty he carried more mescal which came in duty free having been absorbed into the system before being brought out of Mexico
