FIVE YOUNGSTERS
 ARE SEEKING HOMES

Probation Officer w l. Osborn is facing the problem of finding homes for five small boys and girls who for one reason or another are under the protection of the county officer. Mer- win and Oliver Moore, aged eleven and nine are clever. lovable boys who want homes. Their mother who is no longer able to do for them will be willing to give them up that they might have what she cannot provide. The brothers may have to be sep arated but even this will not stand in the way if the officer can secure a good home for them. Beulah Stohl aged six and her brothers Paul, aged four and Otto three years of age are at present in ,Mr. Osborn's charge. If anyone is Interested in the youngsters, MT. Osborn may be reached by tele- phone from nine until eleven o'clock in the morning and from one until three o'clock in the afternoon, the number being 4S1

CHARGES AGAINST
 TWO YOUTHS TODAY

Formal charges will be lodged against Paul Stevens and Cyril F.
 keddington some time today by Coun- ty Attorney Clyde Candy, as result of his two days investigation of the affair of Sunday evening between Mesa and Tempe, which resulted ill the arrest of the two young men af-
 ter an exciting encounter with Mar
 shals Peyson of Mesa and Browning of Tempe. Just what these charges will be, MT Candy was not prepared to say last evening, but they will not be less grave than that of contribu-
 ting to the delinquency of a minor and they may be even more serious. The young woman who figured in the affair was questioned closely yesterday by the county attorney. It is understood that >he learned much from her Those who took the young woman to her home after Stevens and Keddington had been arrested have also been questioned. They are
 of the opinion that the young woman had been drugged. Whether it will
 be possible to prove this, remains to
 be seen. The young woman says she , had not been drinking and that nc i drug had been given her. There is positive evidence that Keddington and Stevens were both quite intoxi- cated when arrested It is quite cer-

WIFE WAS TO0 DEAR:
 FULLER GETS DECREE
Worchester, Mass, Healthseeker Se- cures Divorce on Advice Of His
 Daughter

Declaring that his daugter had writ ten him that the best thing for him to do was to procure a legal separaUon from her mother since he was unable to make enough money to satisfy her wants. Charles G. Fuller yesterday fol- lowed her advice by asking Judge Ly- mna to grant him a decree.
 Ten years ago, he said he and his wife separated. He has not seen her nor their six children since coming west to regain his health. He admitted there had been little discord before he left Worchester, Mass, but that af- ter he had found that he was forced | by health to live in Arizona he had re- quested his wife to join him here. Mrs i Fuller replied that she was fond of her beautiful home in the east and that | she had no desire to leave it.
 l The court granted the decree.
