CRIMINAL AND CIVIL
 CASES FROM COCHISE

Cochise county furnished the only titbit of news in the Supreme court section of the state house yesterday. when there were two appeals filed
 in the office of the clerk from the ! big square Vounty in the southeast crn portion of the state one Of these appeals in civil case and the other is q criminal ease. The civil case is one that has been before the court before and upon which the judgment of the lower court has been once affirmed. It is the well known Paul B. Warnekros-J. R. Richards and wife case. Warnekros again appeals from the superior court on the verdict against him in
 the prOmissory note case.
 The criminal case involves a
 charge of criminal assault on a sev-
 cnteen year old girl in Cochise coun-
 ty, to which it is understood the defendant although he appeals has
 heretofore made a complete confes-
 sion acknoWlcdging his guilt. The de fendant in the case is George L. LenOrd, who conducted a piano store in the town of Douglas. The verdict
 of the jury in the case was guilty and an -~indcrtcrminatc sentence of seven years was placed on the head of LcnorI. The motion for new trial was argued and oVeruled upon claim for reversal of judgment

by their father and that they had been off the claim three years be tween the death of their father and the time of filing their application for patent The complaint in the attorncys office alleges that the Full tons and Jenkins knew the Mccall heirs,s knew that they lived on the land in question, and therefore in swearing as they did committed per jury. The Mccall heirs did-as a matter of fact-livc upon and inn prove the homestead left them by their father and were justified in applying for final papers
 And in the other case Jenkins to- gcther with the Jamison brothers svvorc that one Walter Weese was absent from his homestead in the Sulphur Springs Valley more than six months at one time and did affiN their names to an application for contest claiming this fact. The com plJint alleges that Weese was away from his homestead not over four months, and that the signers of the new application knew this, so are guilty of perjury as charged
 These two cases will be heard be- fore the United States Commissioner Henry Heinrich at Bowie, the Wilcox commis5ioncr, though nearer being disaualircd because he swore the de- fcndents in their applications.

Warrants were issued Saturday and are by now probably served-for the arrest of Howard K Fulton, Percy l.. Fulton, John A. Jenkins, Dave A. Jamison. all of Cochise, Cochise county, Arizona. The war rants came from the office of the United States district attorney, and tile charges are aIl- perjury.
 False swearing to contests in homestead cases, arising in the Sul- phur Springs valley is the complaint lodged against the five. In each of the two cases the man Jenkins fig uIes largely.
 With the Jenkins the two Fultons set their names to an application for contest against the patenting of a homestead by the heirs of John D. Mccall It was alleged in the ap- Hcation that after the death of Me Call the heirs were unknown in con nection with the homestead entered

FREEHOLDERS
 ALMOST DONE
Form of Proposed Charter Now Practically Complete and Board Will Proceed Steadily to Put on Fin ishing Touches

The general structure of the pro posed city charter is practically com pIcte. It was presented at a meeting of the board of freehoIders last night in the form of a report of a special committee which had been appointed to revise the late draft to make it con form to the city manager plan upon which a majority of the board had agreed at the meeting on June 20. But though the matter of the charter was complete the copies were not but it was stated that the rest would be re- ceiVed from the printer al noon today and the leaves would be inserted by the secretary in the copies, ready for study by members of the board at d meeting tonight.
 Nightly sessions, it was understood would be held until the charter had been gone over for such corrections as might be found necessary. It was de cidcd also to invite the attorney gen eral to meeting to be held next Sat urday night and in the meantime. the governor will be given a copy in the form in which it will appear today.
 It is quite possible that other pro- visions will be added during the final consideration of the measure. Several have been suggested by Barney Kcrst- ing incorporating provisions of the constitution relative to several meas ures but there was the counter sug- sestion that there was already nothing in the charter in conflict. and that the constitutional provisions would be self operative.
 Chairman Alexander presented a provision for a cancellation or arbitra- tion board, to consist of three mem bers which should hold office for a year. Vacancies might be filled at any time and in the ease of an industrial dispute, if either of the parties should not be satisfied with the standing board. another might be made up, in which each side would be represented. the third member to be chosen by the two.
 The cancellation board would take cognizance of a dispute only upon the application of one of the parties. Mean while there should be no strike or lockout during the consideration by the board of the matters in dispute.
 Chairman Alexander said that hay ing given this matter some study he believed that no provision of the char ter could be made binding but it's award would be representative of pub lie opinion and thus, would greatly in fluence the settlement of an industrial dispute
 The provision was referred to the body and will probably come up for discussion tonight

Instead of placing all their time and money on their racing car, they will give most of it to building up a sturdy business here in auto-mad Phoenix.

splendor with any of the metropolitan
productions The costumes will be rich
and elegant, the creations having been
designed by leading modistes with such
success that the young men assuming
feminine roles not only act but look the
parts.
In addition to the usual lyrics Of

will be interpolated. One Of these, Boo
loo Booloo, My Banyan Maid" will be
sung by Mr.. ]. Hyland Kuhns, who as
Cetywayo, the Zulu chief, assisted by
