terfering with an Officer.

George Cunningham got crack on
the Uranium and paid $3.50 for inter-
fering with Officer Gill last night when
the officer was bringing a drunk to
the police station. Cunningham APP
parently had been imbibing quite
freely and when he attempted to halt
the officer, he got blow over the head
from the officers club and was then
taken into the procession, which end
ed at police headquarters. In police
court this morning Mayor VIII H.

Statute.

Phoenix, Ariz Dec. 17.-Several
suits to have the Arizona State pro-
hibition law declared invalid were
filed this week in the United States
District Court both here and in Tue
son. Injunctions were asked to pre-
vent the dry amendment going into
effect January / under the provisions
of the measure approved at the
State election November 3.
An action was filed at Tucson in
the name of the Rev. Thomas Con-
molly, pastor of All Saints church,
r. c., of that city, contending that
the dry amendment would prohibit
the use of wine in religious cere-
monies, and thereby would infringe
the religious liberties guaranteed by
the Constitution of the United States.
In injunction petitions filed here
by the druggist and liquor interests
it is commended that the prohibition
law eontravenes the fourteen amend
ment of the Federal Constitution.
