 Quite a number of people who want the canary of the mountains of Ari- zona gathered at the pier and they were disappointed at not being able to get a chance to make a bid for him. So, after a short conference with Chief of | Police Miller and others interested in the auction, it was decided to postpone the sale until today.

LIFE SENTENCE
 GIVEN M 'CANN;
 APPEAL NOTICE
Mother of Convicted Mur- derer Paints As Son Is Ordered to Penitentiary
 for Term of His Life

When Ival McCann was sentenced yesterday by Judge Crosby to spend the rest of his days in the state prison for the murder of Kenneth C. Folston, borne the long trial bravely. could stand no more and swooned away. She was carried downstairs into one of the sheriffs offices where after a couple of hours she was restored and taken to her home
 The prisoner was brought in accom- panied by his father and mother. He bore himself with the same appear ance of coolness that had distinguished him throughout the trial. After all the preliminaries leading up to the for mality of imposing the sentence had been disposed of he was asked if he had anything to say why sentence should not now be passed upon him. He replied briefly only that he had not had a square deal throughout the trial.
 At the hour fixed for the sentence by Judge Crosby the trial judge, when the jury returned the verdict last week, there was an overflowing crowd in the court room. But Judge Stanford had some matters to dispose of and there was continuance of a few minutes When the case was called up Attorney Hubert w. Clark for the defense of fered a motion for a new trial which was denied. He then offered motion in arrest of judgment; that too, was denied.
 Application was then made for a certificate of probable cause and the admission of the prisoner to bail. That was also denied. The only concession made was to order the prisoner com mitted to the custody of the sheriff for 10 days before his removal 10 Florence. That time was given in order that ap- plication may be made to the supreme court for a certificate of probable cause.
 Preparation of the papers in the ap- plication for the certificate, and in the appeal was at once begun by Attorneys Clark and Pugh.
 The motion for the new trial was based on an affidavit by one of the jurors in the case, W. R. Blackstone, that two of the jurors. one of them the foreman. John W. Martin and the other II. D. Wilson, had discussed the case neIOTe rctlTlnS 10 lIe Jury room ana had expressed a conviction that the defendant was guilty. County Attorney Daney was given opportunity 70 pre- sent counter affidavits to the effect that there had been no such conversa- tion.
 Before passing on the application for a certificate of probable cause, Judge Crosby took occasion to consult both Attorney General Wiley E. Jones anc former County Attorney Norman John- son of Globe who were in the court room, as to the practice of admitting 10 bail, pending appeal, of one who had been convicted of murder in the first degree. Both Messrs Jones and John- son stated that it was contrary to prac- tice.
 It was after the disposition of these matters that sentence was pronounced

EXAMINATIONS
 FUR ARMY MEN
 HELD IN CITY
One Hundred Twenty Taken
 Over the Bumps to See if They Are Fitted to Be Sent to Training Camps

One hundred twenty men faced medi- cal examination last evening. 100 of them from the registration class of 1918 and the other 20 reclassified from the registration class of 1917. Just what was the result of the medical ex- aminations will not definitely be known for a day or so since in a number of cases the men also underwent eXamina- ton by the medical appeals board to see if some suspected physical ailment was serious enough to warrant rejection. However, it seems safe to say that in the great ma ajority of the 120 cases the mon have been found fit for service in the National army.
 As-one young man put it after he had been examined and pronounced in A No. 1 physical condition:
 Well, its fine to know that one can do something in the war anyway"
 This seemed to De tEt spirit Of the boys eXamined-a spirit which is today making itself felt wherever the Ameri- can forces are lined up III the battle to the death in France.
 Warning is sent to the other young men in the registration class of 1918 that they must come to the headquar- ters tonight and be examined as the other young men were last night.
 The examinations being made for these classes seems to an outsider a bit more thorough than that made a year ago. This is undoubtedly due to the fact that special care is being taken to see that none with tuberculosis are sent to the camp. Suspicion that any thing is wrong with the lungs imme- diately subjects the subject to further examination by means of the E-ray, a number last evening being thus eX- amined to set at rest all doubt.

Quiet Day Is Livemed By Act
 Of One Horse

One never knows what one can do until he has to. This brilliant thought was beautifully amplified at Five Points yesterday afternoon when a horse hitched to wagon and supposedly fastened at the curb in front of Grand avenue store at that business center, decided to abandon the quiet life. The animal is, or was, owned by a man of Mexl- can persuasion with bright blue trousers.
 When the horse decided to pro- gress and see what was being done at the fair grounds it relieved itself of surplus baggage by deftly re- moving the buggy by scraping it off against a passing bicyclist and the curbing. The bicycIist by one of those bits of dexterity which proved the opening remark of the story, escaped with his life if not with his machine. The horse then proceeded towards the fair ground with it's owner, blue trousers and all. about four jumps to the bad. Feeling handicapped by the pavement the horse then took to the sidewalk. There happened to be young wo- man upon the sidewalk. Not being familiar for the skirted record for 100 yards it cannot be officially stated that that mark was broken but the chance is that the young woman has clipped at least a second for that distance from the regulation mark, inspired by this burst of speed by the horse which was fol- lowing. Again attention is called to the opening sentence.
 At late hour last evening the horse and the Mexican with the blue trousers had not passed Peoria but were expected to shortly.

Stringest rules are to govern the pro- duction and handling of all dairy pro- ducts in Arizona, according to w. A. Barr. the new dairy commissioner. but all to the good of the business and the great benefit of the consumers.

 Among the rules of importance to producers are requirements for the thorough cleansing of utensils, hous- ing of separators and other utensils, branding of milk cans with the own CTS identification mark and providing for clean water for dairy stock and cleansing of utensils.
 For producers of milk for consump- ton these rules are supplemented by the requirement of license which may be secured from the city health officer or from the dairy commissioner, the use of bottle filters and mechanical cappers in bottling milk at the farm, examina- tion of all cows in the dairy herd by a competent veterinarian each year, and the maintaining of their premises so that creditable score can be given at any time inspection may be made.
 Of particular interest to manufac- turers of dairy products are the re- quirements of securing a license to operate a plant, such license being granted after an inspection of the premises by the dairy commissioner the use of none other than standardized glassware. tested. improved and stamped: accurate work in sampline and testing ali dairy products and maintaining the plant and all equip ment in a sanitary condition at al l times.

relating to hotels and restaurants and other large handlers of food. Accord ing to these regulations. all hotels, restaurants, boarding houses, confec- tionaries and other places handling dairy products must make sure that such products meet the butter fat standard and the requirements of sani- tation prescribed in the dairy law. They must store dairy products apart from other food products. as dairy products readily absorb any and all odors that are nearby.
 Copies of the dairy law soon will be off the press and available to all those interested, Mir Barr declared.
