itself as one of the places in line for
 an hoLor flag and it has set out to get
 one.
 At the meeting of the Women's Lib
 erty Loan Committee of Tombstone,
 held Wednesday night at the court
 house. the committees who have been
 at work since the campaign opened
 made their reports, which show that
 up to last night a total of SI2,5OO had
 been subscribed by Tombstone with a
 number of the biggest buyers yet to
 place their subscriptions This means
 thaC Tombstone has over-subscribed
 its quota to date of over one-half, the
 qIota being SS,553. The women pledge themselves to work unceasingly until the closing date of the campaign, when they expect to add at least one or two
 stars tc the honor flag which is now due the Old Camp on the completion Of its quota. A star is added to the flag for each time the quota is doubled
 ThreC men dug their way out of the new highly footed Douglas city jail last nlght and made their escape. A Mexican boy tossed a piece of string up tc nine prisoners in the cell. An old axe was tied to the end of it. With apparent ease the prisoners made a hole through the east side of the wall, big enough for a man to crawl in or out of In digging the hole through the cell wall no steel or iron to reinforce the concrete was encountered. Accord ing to the contractor, the specified tions for the new jail called for rein forced concrete steel rods three feet apart
 Why the other six men didn't escape is unknown. Any man in the cell, un- less it is one alleged bootlegger who is rather ample, could have gone through the hole without difficulty.
 The Arizona state food administra- tion promptly disposed of its case against Joseph Schwertner. Wilcox charged with violating the food regulations by making arrange ments for Schwertner to go out of bus mess The infraction of the regula- tions by the Wilcox man was brought to the attention of the state admins trator, Timothy A. Riordan, and no time was lost in Investigating the charges and dealing with the case.
 Schwertner was accused of hoarding flour and selling it without substitutes and as required by the regulations. ana when confronted with the possibil- ity of S5,OO0 fine and two years im- prisonment as the maximum penalty which might be inflicted, he expressed his willingness to retire from business and dispose of his stock on hand in any manner which the food administra tion might suggest, rather than stand a trial.
 Accordingly a stipulation was enter ed into whereby Schwertner Is imme diately to turn over to the government his entire supply of flour and sugar, and ic allowed thirty days in which to 5ispose of the balance of his stock.
