 IN COURT HUSBAND
 IS FINED 50 DOLLARS

John Whittam was med $50 in
 Judge M. C. Highs court yesterday afternoon on a charge of disturbing the peace after attorneys for both he and his wife had given the domestic troubles of the Whittams a thorough airing in the courtroom. Whittam's wife, the testimony showed. had come to American from the old country to marry him. For some time past. how ever, the two have been living apart and Mrs. Whittam is said to have ap- piled for divorce. While she. a doll-like little blonde. has been work ing in a local store, Whittam has been working in one of the mines.
 On April 24, the testimony brought out, Whittam encountered his wife walking on Laundry Hill with one John Geldart. whom Whittam claims is responsible for much of his trou- ble. Whittam was said to have at tackled Geldart with a double-jack handle, inflictins a severe bruise on one side of Geldart's head TestimO- ny that Whittam had knocked down his wife. was also given. In finding Whittam guilty. Judge High stated that he had taken into consideration the fact that the defendant might have lost his head when he attacked Geldart but could not overlook the fact that Whittam had struck his wife. Wbittam vigorously denied that he had molested Mrs Whittam. and insisted that an error had been made when he was found guilty. Judge High informed him. however, the evidence proved conclusiyely that he was guilty and advised him to not again attempt to settle his domestic affairs by force.

 CAUSE 0F TWO FIRES
 YESTERDAY IN ?. M,
South Bisbee Is Threatened By Flames, Which, How ever, Are Extinguished By Volunteers A d Miners After Sharp Fight.

Two fires which might have caused serious damage in the Warren District broke out early yesterday afternoon
 but were extinguished before the high wind had famed the flames to dan gerous proportions. The first fire was discovered in the yard of the Bisbee Fuel X Feed Company. A pile of saw dust was blazing near the warehouses of the firm The new auto fire truck from Station No. 1 was given its first eral service and Chief Barney Norton and his squad soon eXtinguished tho flames. It is believed the fire had been smoldering in the pile Of sawdust for long time and was famed into a blaze by the high wind.
 The second blaze. in the center of South Bisbee. is thought to have start ed from the same cause \ pile of rubbish in the rear of the home of Joe Franetovich was discovered in flames Before volunteer fire fighters could be assembled. the flames had spread to the barns in the rear of the IIditlONl lCus -hotL G4 ASSS anu dUili McRae homes. Several automobiles and a large quantity of gasoline in the barns were taken out sifety. This undoubtedly prevented a disastrous fire. as the wind, blowing at about 40 miles an hour. was carrying the flames in every direction. Had an explosion of the gasoline taken place, the great CT part of the town would probably have been destroyed. A squad of men from the Cole shaft joined the vOlun- teers and. in about thirty minutes, the fire was under control.
 The rapidity with which the flames spread from barn to barn lead e telephone report to Bisbee and Low ell that the entire town of South Bis bee was in flames. Insurance men and city and county officers from Lowell rushed to the scene in automobiles but, when they arrived. found that the fire had been eXtinguished.

WARREN COMPANY IS READY TO WAGE WAR
 ON FOOD SHORTAGE
Good Land With Water Will Be Let, Free of Charge, To Residents Who Will Per sonally Plant And Cultivate Gardens.

From present indications another great industry will be added to those of the Warren District in the near agriculture. Not that the dis trict will attempt to prove the great est agricultural region in the south west, but that, instead. it will show the rest of the nation that when food is scarce, the so-called arid regions of Arizona can jump into the breach and do their share toward increasing the present stock of eatables.
 One of the first moves in this direc- tion was taken Wednesday night, when the board of directors of the commercial club adopted a resolution urging everyone who could to imme- diately plant as big a garden as their property would allow and to start rais ing chickens ducks or any other kind Of fowl that could be given the axe" and eaten in case of a serious food shortage.
 The Warren Company has gone a step farther. It has available a limit ed area of good land with water there on, and it has under consideration the letting of this land, without rent. to residents in the Warren District, who will personally plant and culti- vate the same.
 Anyone interested in the project should communicate at once to James c. Cowan, Warren. or see MT. Cowan personally at the Warren car barn by appointment. He can be reached by telephoning 229.

Spring Fashion Notes
Utility Sports Bags

To match the incoming sports suits,
sweaters, scarfs, and hats, there are
some nobby new utility bags. These
are broad, wide mouthed affairs, with
a big ring to swing upon the arm.
They hold tennis shoes, contain the
sweater when it isn't in use, carry
a book to read on the beach, knitting
for an idle moment. and such small
accessories as handkerchief, pocket
book and gloves.
For those who demand pro-
nounced feminine grace in their gar
ments. there are endless variations Of
plaits and kits this spring. But for
certain figures probably nothing sur
passes the skirt which is plated from
belt to hem
Among the accessories that are
benetiting by the spring style move
ment are ribbons. The trend toward
hats Of Il somewhat more dressy char
acter is providing an opportunity not
only for the grosgrain and faille ef-
fects which have been fashionable all
along, but also for the more novelty
patterns.
The new coors are brilliant, more
so than on any previous season. Par
ticularly conspicuous are the bright
greens. with wonderful combinations
in plaids: greens and brilliant scar
lets, green and chartreuse. a cross be.
tween yellow and light green. Flame
red is to be much favored: sand color
and purple are being much combined
