The matter mas already been proposed

prospects of some favorable considera-
ton. A county exhibit at the Memphis
Fair would probably be very valuable as
means OF calling attention to our re-

 to confess their part in the robbery
 of a house in East Sixth street and
 in the attempt to rob woman leav-

RIFLE CLUBS
 BEING FORMED
Tucson High School First In Field of Younger Or ganizations With Many Others to Follow in Near Future.

There is an awakening in interest according to the reports received in the office of Adjutant General Harris at the state house. This interest is not confined to- the elders who have heretofore either been connected with the National Guard, or have been members of rifle clubs, it is spread ing among the high schools of the state with the result that several high schools are looking interestingly into the proposition and already a rifle club has been organized at the Tucson High School, and application has been made to the Arizona Rifle Association for permission to enter the state shoot next year. Phoenix is to follow suit in the course of a short while, and papers containing information have been sent to Win slow. Flagstaff Prescott and to the Flagstaff Normal.
 Most of this work has come under the direct care of George J. Rosk- ruge, state secretary for Arizona of the National Rifle Association. MT. Roskruge is an enthusiastic rifleman
 
 and determination that nothing can quench. Without anything but his own delight in excellent shooting to spur him on. he has worked for a long time getting the enthusiasm aroused first in the elders and now with the younger and coming citizens of the state.
 Adjutant General Harris yesterday sent communication to MT Rosk- ruge concerning the organization of rifle clubs throughout the state, con- taining the following conditions that must be met. This information tells how rifle clubs are formed and what they can be provided with as well as the cost of the same to the individual members.
 For 4th class: College Rifle Clubs to consist of students of colleges and academies; cOnferring degrees, $5.0C membership fee. and $500 annua dues. the membership fees covering the first years dues.
 The 5th class: Schoolboy clubs, to consist of students of other schools such as Preparatory, High Schools and Private Schools: $2.00 member SUlp lees anu S--VU dIiihoI dOcSi lllt membership fee covering the first | years dues.
 Whenever it is desired to organize a Rifle club, by students of thu schools given above, call a meeting O. 1 those interested in rifle shooting, or | Sanize the club as you would organ | ize any small organization, but b, sure and have 20 students sign the roll as it requires this number tt receive a charter. The bylaws hay ing been adopted, the following of ficers should be elected: President Secretary, Treasurer and Captain Members of the faculty may become | members, and hold office in thes- 1 clubs, but will not be eligible to com pete for decorations issued by thu | War Department. After the clul | has been organized application | should be made through the Stat Secretary for membership in the Ma | tional Rifle Association

 He added that the night before the hoId-up of the woman in front of the Germania bank one of the detec- tives borrowed seven dollars from him.
 His testimony was corroborated by Joseph Swee, another youth. He sWore he had never carried a revolver until he was induced to carry a Colts

He told the committee also that
 he had had all of the pockets in his

 They will get me, but not for that" he said.
 "Pish" was the first witness. He 1 is a youth of considerable intelligence and told a remarkable story of the efforts of the police to get himself and his comrades to commit robber- ies. He declared that he had never carried a weapon until he met Cava and Gamberdella.
 He told of repeated requests by the
