High School Notes

The midi term examinations have
come to an end and the strain un-
der which the students have been
laboaing for the past week is over.
On Friday, the 10Th, the third
basketball game of the season will
be played here between the Bisbee
and Benson High Schools. Because
of the weather conditions the games
will be played at the Auditorium.
On Saturday, 10th, the Tomb
stone High School boys will meet
the Benson boys. This game will
also probably be played at the Au-
ditorium.
The girls basketball team is very
thankful to Mr.. T. H. Denney for
his kind contribution. He is indeed
a loyal booster.
Another track meeting was held
last Friday.
Miss Blanche Merrill returned to
school this week in time to take
the examinations
Mr. Orrick Robertson is engaged
this week in re-hanging the doors
throughout the building, SO that all
doors will open outward.
The B U. H. S. tips it's hat to

Bisbee High School boys anc
girls basketball teams came over
yesterday and played games with
Benson Union High School,.
The games we're played at the
Auditorium, the girls game com
ing first, the time of beginning
being about 3 o'clock. The score
in the girls game, in which both
sides put up a desperate struggle
for supremacy, resulting in a vic
tory for Bisbee, score % to IS.
In the boys game there was a
life and death struggle, but again
Bisbee was too much for the locals,
the score being Al to SO in their
favor.
While all the boys played hard
Baudelio Martinez, was conceded
to be the star of the Benson team.
The Tombstone High School
team is expected to play here this

ther may delay the game.

THE 64O-ACRE LAW
Summary Of New Act Pro-
viding for Grazing
HOmesteads

The bill authorizes the Secretary
of the. Interior to designate the
land which will be subject to entry
under the bill. 1T will require
some time to do this, and those
who attempt to make filings under
the bill prior to such designation
by the Secretary must do so at
their own risk. The bill provides
however, that settlers may file on
land before the Secretary has COM
pleted the work of designation.
The application must be accompa-
MED by afidavits showing that in
the opinion of the entryman the
land is of the character contem-
plated by the act. In addition to
that the entryman must deposit
with the land Office the regular fees
and commissions and thereupon
the land will be withdrawn from
entry until the Secretary of the In
terror shall have an opportunity to
determine its character. The en-
tryman however will not be per-
mitted to occupy the land until the
Secretary has actually designated
it as subject to entry.
Any person qualified to make
entry under the general homestead
laws of the United States may make
stock raising homestead entry.
Instead of cultivation, as required
by the general homestead laws,
the entryman will be required to
make Improvement on the land of
a value of not less than $1.25 per
acre, and at least one half of the
improvements must be placed on
the land of not less than S1.25 per
acre, and at least one-ha1f of the
improvements must be placed on
the land within three years from
the date of the entry.
The bill provides that settlers
who have made filings under the

BOOTLEG = BOOZE
Capture Made of Car Full
and the Man Who Had
1t i'm His Possession 4

Constable John Profitt made a
sensational capture yesterday of
so-called bootlegger,'' but who
might more appropriately be termed
travelling wholesaler. The vic
tim, who gave his name as J. J.
Spencer, and residence as Tucson,
had got safely through town on his
way from Lordsburg, N. M, to
Tucson, in his Jeffrey Six, but ran
out of gasoline mile west of town
and came back on foot to secure
supply. Z
Constable Profitt became suspi-
cious and went out to investigate.
A search of the car revealed twenty
two cases, containing between four
and five hundred bottles of whisky,
there being many broken bottles iii
the lot.
The man was put under arrest,
and he was brought back to town
and locked up. The autos con-
tents were interned" to await fur
ther disposition.
This morning Spencer was re-
leased on 500 bail, to appear for
trial Monday.
AS soon as the. prisoner was re-
leased Constable Profitt telephoned
the Sheriff S office and received or
ders to re-arrest him, which he did.
Deputy. A. w. Howe came down
from Tombstone today and took
the prisoner back with him.
Spencer gave his name to the
! officers as James.
1t is reported that three other
cars that were equally suspicious
in their movements passed through
yesterday, but they all made good
their escape.

consideration of many candidates

Office in Phoenix. vice Thomas F.

that time

lar in a general way with condi-
tons upon which he will be called

Receiver John J. Birdno said
that he was delighted to have the
office filled, and that he considered
the appointment one of the very
best which could have been made.

general homestead law and amend
ments thereto may make additional
filings sufficient to give them $40
acres. However, they must show
that the land on which they origi
finally filed is Of the same character
as the land affected by the $40 acre
bill. an other words, that it is
chiefly valuable for grazing and
raising forage crops, does not con-
tain any merchantahle timber, is
not susceptible of irrigation from
any known source of water supply,
and is of such character that $40
acres are reasonably required for
the support of family"
The land covered by an addi
tiona1 entry must be within a radius
of twenty miles from the settler S
first entry, and the entrynlan is re-
quired to file on contiguous areas
which may be open to entry prior
to filing on non-contiguous land.
Homesteaders who are living on
their original entries are not re-
quired to establish residence on
their additional entries. When
they come to prove up it will only
be necessary for. them to show that
they have made the required per
manent improvements.
In case a homesteader finds he
cannot make an additional entry
within the prescribed radius of 20
miles he may, if he sees fit, sur
render his original filing and make
a new entry covering $40 acres.
The second entry, however, must
be in the same land district as the
first. Homesteaders who are en-
titled to make additional entries
have preferential right to file on
lands for ninety days after the Sec
retary of the Interior has desig-
mated the land subject to entry un-
der the provisions of the bill. In
case this preferential right leads to
a conflict between homesteaders the
Secretary of the Interior is author
lied to make a division of the
land.
The United States reserves all
the coal and other minerals of the
land subject to entry.
