THE BOTTLE IMP"
 IS CENTRAL PLAY

Robert Louis Stevenson's famous Hawaiian story, "The Bottle Imp" forms the basis of the picture of that name. in which Sessue Hayakawa portrays the stellar part Mir. Haya- kawa has already been seen on the screen as a Japanese, Chinese and Hindu, but this is the first time that he has ever appeared as an Hawaiian. The story of the Bottle Imp" deais with the adventures of a poor fisher man who seeks a girl of royal blood as his wife, but whose father strongly protests. He manages to acquire pos session of "the Bottler which grants every wish, but which, nevertheless, has a terrible menace. How he final ly succeeds in winning the girl he loves in spite of the many obstacles that confront him, is brought about in a most thrillign and unique manner.
 The setting of the story is pictur- esque Hawaii, and the Lasky company actually sent the players there to stage the production
 This picture is being shown at the Central today.

BUSINESS MAN SAYS NJ REASON FOR LATE
 HOURS IN DISTRICT
Prominent Merchants Declare that Working Hours Here Eliminate Need for Business Houses Being Open at Night.

There is no good reason for any merchant in the Warren district desir- ing to keep his store open after 6 o'clock any evening"" said a promi- nent Bisbee business man yesterday, in speaking of the arrangement, en- dorsed by nearly every man in the community. which would cause every business house to close at 6 o'clock every night in the week and all day Sunday
 There are some communities in the country" he continued, which should have stores open after 6 o'colck on one night a week. In such communities this night is usually Sat urday and it is really essential. Ir t.e Warren district, however, the hours of work do not make this neces- sary or even to be desired.
 Practically every merchant in the Warren district is greatly in favor of the change and hearly all have sign ed the agreement. It is to be hoped that every man will follow suit"
 That the clerks and other store em- ployes will win out seems assured. The merchants and business men are behind the movement and are cooper ating with the employees to the end that their hours be shortened. The campaign for the o'clock closing will be continued all this month.

MANY APPEALS BY J. $. TURNED

Numerous Appeals from Lo- cal Exemption Boards De- cisions Are Referred Back for Information.

Many government appeals from the 1ecision of local boards on depend ents were turned down yesterday by le district board, which, however, re- rersei the local boards in a few in- :.ances.
 me request of William Glossan of ;-nta Cruz, for a temporary eXemp-
 ol because of a sick wife, was re- ieI.eI back to the local board for ac- tion
 Robert R. Lambeth of Graham, dis charged by the local board for under weight, was checked back to the local board for action.
 Edward J. Van Dine of Graham, who was discharged by the local board for flatfoot, was held and sent back to the ocal board for information.
 Sixty-five cases from Pima county, appealed by the government, were con- sidered. Most of these were affirmed but few referred back for further information.
 Sixty-three claims were received from Graham county, appealed by the government on the issue of depend cept four were referred to the county attorney for further information.
 In the published list of the men of the first draft contingent, the name of William Frederick Norton was given as William Frederick Norris. The name of J. F. Fox was left off through erlor.
 It appeared yesteiuay that w. w. Pickrell may not get chance to go with the first contingent because of the appeal made for him by Professor Taylor of the University in the name of all the agricultural agents of the University.
 Pickrell himself is anxious to get away with the first bunch since he has lost his chance Jr a commission otherwise by staying on the job.
 There are at least half a dozen candidates for his place if he is forced to leave the first ranks.
 In contrast to the eagerness of the first Is to go is the tentative report yesterday at the local board, that about 50 per cent of the men called to the examinations have never been heard from. They have not even filed exemptions and their whereabouts are unknown.
