YOUNGSTERS GAN NOT USE FIRECRACKERS IN
 BISBEE THIS SEASON
City Council, Fire Chief Norton and City Marshal Allison Lay Down the Law; Backed By Ordinance.

As much as the city authorities would like to see Young America en-. joy itself to the very limit, yet these same authorities have put down their official hands on the matter of fire works and frecrackers, within the corporate limits of the city Such was the information given out last even ing by Acting Mayor Bob Hennessy City Marshal James Allison and Fire Chief Barney Norton.
 Already it has come to the notice of the last two named officials, espe- cially, that many youngsters in Bis bee were using matches and fire crackers in abundance. It has been brought to the attention Of the fire chief that in some instances the crackers were thrown on rubbish heaps and on dry boards where fire might ensue The same complaints have come, in numbers, to the city council and to the city marshal
 We have no grudge against the boys of Bisbee, said the fire chief last evening. But frecrackers must be stopped in the limits of the corpora ton. There is a particularly severe ordinance on the subject on the sta tute books of the city and this will be invoked to prevent possible loss of property to say nothing of the loss of limb and mind to the boys of the community"
 And the cit' officials are not joh- ing about enforcing the ordinances. They intend that there shall be no firing of crackers in Bisbee this year. It is said that the dry condition Of the city would make a conhagration very easy to start and that neither the community as a whole, not the citizens at large are in a position to stand a costly fire, resulting from the misdirected activities of Young Ame- rica in celebrating the Fouth of July.
