THEY DROP MIDDLE NAMES
Only Two Names, 10 Discovery
Recently Made.

"This Is the day Of the two-cylinder
name, which fact has been proved by
cognomen connoisseurs who have
looked over every name at Harvard
and inspected the persons to whom, the
names belong. They learned that some
extremely nice persons have no middle
names at al and seem to get on rather
well without them.
sit Is assumed" says q New York
Herald writer. that the ever-growing
trend toward eficiency Is to be blamed
for the dropping Of oversize names, for
it has long been understood that q per
son with a two-ply title need NOT be
especially embarra ssed about 1t. In
the course Of a wealthy mans life It
means the writing of about 10000 600
useless words IL he uses his middle
name on checks and Endorsements, and
these things have got to be considered

70 supply sritlsh Juror Shortage.

How is the shortage of jurors occa-
stoned by the war to lie remedied? Sir
George Lewis proposes, III contribu'
ton to the Law Journal, the imme.
date adoption of the recommendation
made BY Lord Mersey's committee that
the right to trial by jury should be
restricted. The committee, or rather
the majority of its members, proposed
that the question whether an action
should be tried by jury, except an &C.
tien affecting personal character,
should be determined by a judge.
Thus the supply of iurymen would be
made sufficient by reducing the de-
mand upon their services.-London

NEW WRINKLE UP IN
 PROHIBITION CASE
Extra-territorial Jurisdiction is New Point Introduced in
 Liquor Question.

TUCSON. March 16.-The right of R state to extra-territorial jurisdiction, an important point in the enforce nent of the state prohibitory law, is 7xpected to come up in the trial of Manuel Morales. an engine hostler of Lordsburg, N. M., when he is tried in the justice court on a charge of intro ducing liquor into the state of Arizona.
 Morales is charged with having se- -reted whisky on an engine tender at
 ordsturg for the purpose Of evading he Arizona prohibitory law. The
 anne liquor was taken from the hid Ng place by Mariana Pacho. hostler n Tucson, it is allesed, and a letter -ound on Pacho implicated Morales in he deal
 Shortly after the arrea1 of Pacho Morales was sent on duty into Arizona and as soon as he crossed the line he was arrested and brought to Tucson 10 face a charge of introducing liquor 0to the state Of Arizona
 The question is expected to be Nrought uD by Morales attorneys that the state has no right 10 arrest Mor- ales on such charge as he was not in the jurisdiction of the state when he Cffense was committed.
 The point is an important one, for if decided that the state has jurisdic- ton over Morales on such a charge, it ~ould affect all persons who ever shipped liquor to the state which was 1sed for an illegal purpose who might happen to enter the state afterwards. The Offense is not one for which a person can be extraditej. however. q

BADGER FIGHT GREAT SAYS SHANLEY;LOUD
 IN PRAISE 0F SPORT
California Man Who Acted As Master of Ceremonies at interesting Event Is Fight in His Opion of Game.

Patrick J. Shanley, who was the star performer at the successful fight held after the Business Mems Banquet at K. of c. Hall last Friday evening. is loud in his praises of the sporting con- test at which he took a prominent part
 Shanley states that although he has travelled the states from coast to coast. h. has never seen anything which made SO deep an impression on him as the badger fight of Wednesday evening. and assures his friends that the recollection of the affair will not be easily erased from his memory.
 According to Shanley, the thing that most impressed him was the ferocious md vindictive expression on the face of the badger as he pulled the rope which released the animal from it's opptivity. it's aspect surpassing any thing which he had exDected to see.
 A satisfactory feature of the affair, which the fight was brought to a con clusion. the contest being arranged in such a manner that neither badger nor dog exhibited scratch after tho bat ''P was over. This in his oDinion. is a tieh testimonial to the humanitarian instincts of the sport lovers who were for the event, and Stanley -tated that if was a pleasure 10 him n reflect that he himself actually suf- fered more than either of the animals enpa god

TRACK AND FIELD
 MEET NOW BOOKED
 f0R SUNDAY, APR. 7
Competition Between Copper Queen and C. & A Teams Postponed Two Weeks;
 Contestants in Prime Shape.

The meet between the Copper Queen and c. X A. track and field athletes, scheduled for Sunday. March 19, has been postponed two weeks. IL is be- lieved that the postponement is wise move inasmuch as it will enable the athletes to round into their best condi- tion. Working constantly at their regular employment, members of both teams require onewhat more than or dinary time to reach their best form.
 Reliable information upholds the be lief expressed in sporting circles that the Copper Queen performers will be able to give the C. X A. competitors all they are looking for and there are those who will, no doubt, be willing 10 risk some Of the all-important long green on the c. Q. boys. Several C. & A. supporters who heard of this yes terday. declared their willingness to back their favorites by substantial wagers.
 Members of both teams are working out faithfully and there is none of the spirit to shirk. In fact, trainers of both teams have been obliged to take a firm stand and hold the boys in check bit, the danger being that they will overdo their training stunts after their long absence from active track and field competition. Indications are that the meet will be a lively affair with the result in doubt until the clos ing events.
