SCOTCH HIGH BALL |S
 VERY zESTFUL SHOW

Had Armstrong's Baby Dolls" opened in Harry Lauder's travesty, "A Scotch Highball," instead of "The Candy Ship" the Columbia would have tested capacity last week and the company would have established itself at ''one fell swoop,' for unques- tionably the second attraction Is in every way superior to the opening show.
 The song hit of the evening is a re- cent composition by Ed Armstrong entitled, You Have to Like the Cli- mate," and it is both philosophical and melodious. MT. Armstrong has several song hits to his credit, and if the universe was universally hot and dry, the climate song would have a place on every piano.
 Of the specialties introduced, honOrs hlong to Miss Robbie Dean, who did an acrobatic dance excellently and responded to the several encores gracefully. The duet number by Miss Hamilton and MT. Henry came in for much applause and was deserving.
 It may be said that the show at the Columbia this week is superior to the one of last week, and no doubt the crowds will be materially in creased.

Townsend for the defense started once to make point of it.
 Briefly, the chronology of the con- spiratCrs was this:
 Shortly after July 4-on a Sunday about dozen men met in the house of Franco at the corner of Thirteenth avenue and Lincoln Cayetan urged the cOnspiratOrs to raise men and money for fighting in Mexico. Ortiz objected and, said, Rise on arms now, and against the American people. Do not go to Mexico"
 Lugo made a 'keynoting" speech urging those present to consider them selves brothers.
 Next evening, the same gang met at the house of Encinas, just across the street The argument of the night be- fore was resumed and Cayetan suffered final turn down. Ortiz urged haste, as the Indians were anxious to get into action.
 Soon afterward, Padilla, at the in stance of Cordoba wrote the letters to the Pima chiefs. Jose Pablo, Jiochim and Francisco Molino were the mes- sengers who carried these letters. They were left nailed in a box on the reservation, where Ortiz was to get them for distribution among the Pima. Jose Ramirez, an Indian policeman, working under Agent Frank Thackery found the box and took the letters The defense made great point of the non delivery of the letters It was argued that there could be no conspir- acy charged, as the overt act had a curtain call before it was quite started.
 Judge Parker overruled objections and admitted the letters in evidence. PaGilla, an alert and well educated
 man was a fancy witness, providing some mirth for the spectators, after he had become angered at the sharp ad- | dress of Attorney Townsend. After
 cross examining on meeting number
 one, Townsend cracked the question at | Padilla:
 | WHERE did he say that?" | Right across the street." promptly
 returned the witness, (referrng to the second meeting, held at Encinas' house

ker short two hours in assessing a bond of $5,O00 each against nine Of the Mexicans and $500 for Jose Encinas, because the latter was shown to be supporting family, and in possession of good job here, which two facts will probably tie him down within the courts jurisdiction. Five of the pris- oners. against whom little or no real evidence could be found, were released on motion of United States Attorney Tom Flynn.
 S. L. Padilla, the states witness, was held on his own recogniZance as wit ness for the prosecution before the grand jury and before the federal court in which the gang will be tried at the coming session.
 Padilla's testimony in yesterdays preliminary examination did little but show the futility, the scatter -brained- ness and the abortiveness of the at tempt to overturn the government of the United States. Padilla showed up as the secretary of the junta, taking dictation from T. N. Cordoba and sign ing letters with him and V. Alfaro to the Yauui agent and Pima war cap- tains on the reservation. Padilla tes- tified he had written all the letters ad- dressed to Antonio AZul, Lewis, Choc- sen and Mike Ortiz.
 Two meetings of the conspirators were disclosed in Padillas testimony Teodore Cayetan, the special agent of Ricardo Flores Magon, the famous Mexican socialist of Los Angeles, ap- parently failed in his attempt to di- vert the rebellion to his own use in Mexico Cayetan plead with the junta to raise an army for service in Mexico although against whom, it was not shoWn-but ortiz, who was organizing the Yaquis and who hoped to add five hundred Pimas to his similar force of Yaauis, prevailed. and the meeting de- clared for the localized ruction.
 This fact did not save Cayetan from being held on the same prohibitive bond as the rest of the main conspira- tors, though Attorneys Goodwin and

on the other corner.) His honor was lenient with the mirthful ones.
 Similarly, Wiley Jones, quizzing a bad witness exclaimed
 Where did this crime take place?"
 Outside, responded the witness, waving q vague arm.
 It was less and less serious, when Townsend tried to show that Padilla was not a reliable witness, as he had been granted his liberty on promise to tell certain things against the defend- ants. Padilla claimed he simply knew he would get free, and nobody told him what to say, and shortly, the judge halted the cross examination by refer ring to the two days the trial had sped, and mentioning the advisability of haste.
 It was after a short adjournment for noon that the defense announced it's lack of witnesses, and the dismissing motions were made. Then the men named were held over and their bonds fixed.

SALE 0F SCHOOL BLOCK
 IS MADE REGULAR
Special Election Brings Unanimous
 Vote for the Proposition

In sorder that there could be no question as to the legality of the sale of School Block No. 57 by School District No. 1, to the Tucson, Phoe- nix and Tidewater railroad, a special school district election was held on Saturday. The number of ballots cast, while small, was sufficient to show the sentiment of the taxpayers, not one being against the sale of the block
 Some weeks ago the railroad com pany submitted a bid of $15,000 for the interest of the city in the same tract. The bids were accepted in each instance.
 Just as the sale was seemingly about to be consummated it was dis covered that the legislature recently had changed the law with relation to the sale of such lands requiring an election by ballot and not by mass meeting. The school board had ori- ginally submitted the proposition to a mass meeting of citizens acting under the older law. Attorneys for the railroad advised the company that the title to the property would be clouded unless the school district first held an election as required bv the new law. This requirement has now been complied with and the sale will proceed.
 The city, in agreeing to sell it's in- terest for s1O,O00, adopted a course which Manager Parish and the com mission felt would materially assist in tiding the city oyer the shortage in municipal funds which threatens before the money collectable from the city taxes is made available. It is expected that this amount will short ly be in the hands of the city.

OPEN BANKS SIMULTANEOUSLY
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-After many days of consideration the fed eral reserve board decided it will open all of the twelve reserve banks at the same time, and launch the new banking system simultaneously all over the country. This decision was reached after the discussion had proposed that the New York, Boston and possibly other eastern banks

would be opened first.
 The board is expected to take up tomorrow the selection of Class c directors of the twelve banks. As soon as these are named. the banks will take the remaining steps, choose their officers, obtain quarters. pay their assessments and prepare to open when the word is given.
 Enough directors probably will be chosen this week to make the organ ization of the banks possible.

Jacksonville was named for Gen.
Andrew Jackson as q compliment and
mark Of appreciation for services he
rendered to civilization in the Semi
mole War There could have been no
progress or civilization in Florida but
for the work Of Andrew Jackson. Con-
ditons in this territory in 1918, nearly
a hundred years ago, demanded the
services Of a brave and resolute man.
Gen Jackson was selected by the gov
eminent as the one man above all
others to head the movement against
the Seminole Indians, who had been
terrorizing the territory for several
years and committing atrocities Of the
most brutal character.
In March, 1918, Gen. Jackson was
ordered to the site OF the Seminole
War. He invaded East Florida, and
in campaign Of less than six weeks
crushed these Indians. 1t Is related

hanging on a war pole. Gen. Jackson
knew that the Spaniards were In sym.
pathy with the Indians in their attacks
on American settlers. After cleaning
up a number of Indian villages he cap
tured the Spanish post Of St. Marks.
For this act he was severely censured
by his government. However, the
naked fact is that "Old Hickory" was
more courageous than the men who
were conducting the affairs OF state
at Washington.
Early in May, 1918, Gen. Jackson
closed his campaign against the Sem
inoles in East Florida. He had COM
pletely broken their power and run
them out Of the territory. They caused
no more serious trouble.
During his campaign in East Florida
Cen Jackson obtained satisfactory ev-
idence that Spanish officers at Pensa-
cola were in sympathy with the In
dams. He promptly decided to march
against them and teach them lesson.
The Spanish governor Of West Florida,
learning of Gen. Jackson's purpose,
sent him written protest against his
| invasion. This protest is now on file
among the Jackson documents in
charge OF the Tennessee Historical
Society at Nashville. The protest was
delivered to Gen. Jackson near Pensa-
cola on May 20, but 1t had no effect on
that determined man. In reply he sent
q peremptory demand for the imme-
diate surrender OF Pensacola and Bar
rancas. Jackson advanced immediate
ly on Pensacola and possessed 1t. Two
days later the Barrancas garrison
capitulated, were received as prison
ers OF war and sent to Havana
Having thus snatched both East and
West Florida from the Indians and
Spaniards, Gen Jackson at once pro-
ceeded to establish provisional gov
eminent under the stars and stripes.
Having accomplished this, he return
ed to Tennessee, then his home.
In 1922 a number OF pioneers held
meeting here and decided to start
the work OF building town. The vii
lage was then known as the Cow Ford,
a name given to it by the Indians.
After perfecting an organization, the
Incorporation unfurled the banner OF
