Both Sides Win Remnants When
 Glasses Clash

It is not every day that high school juniors enjoy the aristocratlc privilege of going home in taxi cab but this fortune fell to Josh Abramson two nights ago. It is said that when both sides to contro- yersy secure their point all should be satisfied but in this particular case Mir. Abramson is not entirely pleased with the result.
 1t seems that, stimulating the prac- tice of universities, there is z desire on the part of juniors to Haunt their new honors at the opening of school. It fell to Mir. Abramson to place the junior pennant upon the high school flaapole, thus Haunting in the very faces of the august and September seniors the defiance of their jun iors. 1t took some days for the seniors to find out who did the deed and then came MT. Abramson's day, or. rather, evening of reckoning. Three of the seniors waylaid MT. Abramson but being Y. M. C. A. leader Ire had the strength of the late MT. Sampson and tossed them aside However, when two more sWelled the number to rye, he founo himself unequal to the task of es- capinc and so, perforce, tarried with a couple of seniors sitting upon his chest while the other three re- moved his neither garment for the purpose of making from them mini ature penants as souveniers of his flag raising ability.
 Left without the habiliment of civilization Mir. Abramson sought refuge and in the end secured taxi to take him to his residence where suitable substitutes for the lost clothing could be obtained and it is said in high school circles that seV- eraI seniors have ornamented their rooms with the cutest Of pennants which bear a striking resemblance to a coat which MT. Abramson still possesses but which he does not wear any more because he has not the full suit.

Iamara has scored a decided hit in bringing to the city one of the most talked of pictures of the year ar-the William Fox special-"Jack and the Beanstalk." This picture has been widely advertised as one of the most expensive ever presented to the pup lie, and after witnessing the perform : ance one can readily understand that the claims are correct. IL Is Spectac- ular production second to none that has ever been brought to the city. From the moment of the start or the first performance yesterday morning the cozy aLamara has been taxed to capacity at each performance. Children are thrilled at seeing in actual life the characters which this fairy tale has made a part of every childs life. and while Jack scampers through his ter rible" adventures with the giant the little ones sit in wonder absolutely giving themselves up to the spirit o1 the story. Nor is the appeal only to the little ones. Grown-ups find tnis remarkable picture not only entertain ing but highly instructive. presenting as it does some of the greatest achieve ments of the modern photoplay.
 It takes ten reels to tell the story, but there is not moment or draS III the entire show, and ones only regret when the performance is finished IS that there is not more of it. Crowds visited the theater last evening which could not be accommodated, and there is every reason to believe that thls condition will prevail throughout the entire four days run.

District Board Orders Re Examination of 80 and
 Adjourns After Disposing of Several Appeals

The district military board in ad- jOurned session yesterday completed all Work before it, passed a resolution recalling for re-eXamination some 80 men considered physically unfit for military service by the local board, and then took a recess until Friday, Sep tember 2S.
 The decision to have the so supposed physically unfit ret examined came as bolt out of clear sky, a great sur prise to many who thought they had been eliminated from possible military service All the so to be re-eXamined live in Maricopa county. The board announced the men would be re- exam ined by doctors other than those who pronounceu them physically unfit. These examinations will take place in the Federal building September 2S, the doctors presumably to come from another part of the country
 The members of the board declined to comment upon this action, aside from a statement made by the cnair- man. Joe L. B. Alexander. This state ment is:
 The board has received such neorma-
 
 has occurred in the examination of these persons, as the result of which they have been discharged by the physicians as physically unit for mii- tary service. We have appointed doc tors to conduct a examination of these persons. This step has been taken by the board in order to settle all questions and doubts as to whether or not the persons under consideration are really disqualified or not. Following are the men who will be re-examned:

PAR| MI IS KILLED; APPEAL
 WILL BE TAKEN
Injunction Proceedings to
 Prevent the State Fair Board from Stopping BOyce Contract Dismissed

The paIi mutueT received it's death blow in Judge Lyman's court yester- day. In sustaining the demurrer to the complaint, Judge Lyman gave judgement to the defendant in the injunction proceeding instituted by C. D. Boyce versus the, State Fau Commission whereby the plaintiff sought to restrain and enioin the commission from in any way inter- IcTing with, prohibiting ana prevent ing Boyce from carrying out the terms of a contract with the com mission for the purpose of conduct ing horse race meetings and amuse ments with the exclusive privilege of operating the pari mutuel machine.
 The court held with the fair com mission in its demurrer on the ground that the contract set out in the complaint provided for puOh, gambling and for the further reason that it provided for maintaining a public nuisance.
 The legality of the contract by which Boyce was to make Phoenix q sport center, was not raised al this time.
 F. z. Struckmeyer,' who represent cd the plaintiff. gave notice Of ap- peal. The state was represented ly Assistant Attorney General Whit hey and George Purdy Bullard ap- peared as amicus curae. MT Bull lard who argued at length declared that if the contract bC carried out that every man and woman, every boy and girl who attended the state fair would De thrown directly into temptation.
 In the case of Mccall versus the State Of Arizona the supreme court held that Mccall was not guilty of carrying on gambling game. Me Call, it will be recalled, was indict- ed for carrying on a gambling game for the use Of the pari mutuel m>- chine. On an agreed statement of facts the case went to the supreme court all three judges differing in their opinion. Judge Cunningham wrote an opinion in which he stated that the statement of facts failed to show Mccall guilty of gambling Ac- cording to the opinion of Judge Ross the information was defective and Judge Frfanklin held that Mccall was guilty
 The Boyce case is different from the Mccall case in that Mccall was charged with operating a pari mUtuel machine without himself being in any way responsible for the horse race. The contract in the case be- fore Judge Lyman yesterday con- templated the operation of the pari mutuel ty the same person who pro- notes the race
 The contract which has been nuli- fled was entered into between Homer R. Wood and c. NJ. Layton then fair commissioners and C. D. Boyce on April | of this year.

Mans true nature is actually re- vealed only in trying circumstances and Lynn F. Reynolds has proven the truth of the assertion in "The show Down." a Bluebird photoplay to be displaved at the Columbia theater today with Myrtle Gonzales and George Her nandez playing the star parts. me plot deals with a boatload of shlp- wrecked tourists who find themselves on a verdant island, left by fate to shut for themselves-to survive or perish. The selfish man is changed into sell sacrificing friend while the man who has always posed as a phianthroplst and friend of the oppressed is revealed as a selfish and cowardly mortal who thinks only of his own preservation. Out of this mixture of good and eVli comes a love story of gripping interest spiced with sensation and vibrating with thrills and excitement.

Acting Chief of Militia
 Bureau Issues Order to Prevent Anything Like Soldier Garb Out of Army

Whatever controversy there has been regarding the wearing of United States army uniform by other organizations than the soldiers of the regular army md the national guard has been set tied by the following order of the war 7o'" rtv'ent Of the date of September 15 which has been sent to the adjutant generals of all the states;
 WAR DEPARTMENT
 MILITIA BUREAU
 WASHINGTON
 From the Acting Chief, Militia Bureau To the Adjutant General of all States
 Territory of Hawaii, and the Dis
 trict of Columbia.
 Subject Wearing of United States
 Uniform.
 The following decision of the secre- tary of war with respect to the wearing of the uniform of the United States ar my by home guard organizations is promulgated for the information and guidance of all concerned:
 Authority to wear the uniform of the United States army will be granted only to organizations over which the war department is authorized by law to exercise control and in view of the fact that such control is not legally possible in the case of the Home Guard, no departure from the policy which has been adopted is jus tified.
 Tn the absence of legal authority to wear uniforms resembling the United States army uniform, uniforms worn by home guard organizations should be such in appearance that they can not he reasonably mistaken even at a dis tance for any distinctive part of the uniform of the United States army, navy or marine corps, and where uni- sorm is it itself distinctive no distinct i've mark for such uniform is required. It should be added that the section of the law providing for the protection of the uniform is a penal statute and it's construction, therefore rests with the courts. No instructions that the war department may give nor anything 1t may say can protect an offender from prosecution in the civil courts under the statutes nor can any advice that the war department may give 11ther aggravate or eXtenuate an of fense."
 By direction of the secretary of war,
 J. Mel. CARTER, ,, (Sea) Colonel. Cavalry. Two reasons are given for the dis crimination now insisted upon One is that many assertions from the army are expected and if others than soldiers were permitted to wear the uniform or any uniform closely resembling it the detection of deserters would be more dlfflcu1t. Another reason is the order forbidding the sale of intoxicating liq- uor to men of the army in uniform
