NO WELCOME FOR HODGES
 IN TUCSON NOW

Instead of work or fight it is now work or flight
 No longer will Phoenix gleam forth as a beacon for those birds of passage that herald the cycle of the seasons in their regular periginations about the country. The city is now endowed with an air-tight vagrancy ordinance that defines with broad, clear strokes the class affected by this new law.
 In the language of the municipal regulation, vagrants are: All per sons who are idle or absolute, and who go about begging; all persous without visible means of living who have the physical ability to work, and who have not for the space of ten days sought employment or labor ed when employment was offered them; all persons who use any jug gling or unlawful games or plays; run awavs, pilferers, confidence men, con- mon drunkards, common night walk CTS, prostitutes, gamblers, lewd, wan ton and lascivious person in speech or behavior, comon railers and brawl- CTS, etc" Included are the associates Of thieves, pickpockets. burglars, pros, titutes and gamblers.
 The ordinance, passed at the reeu, lar meeting of the city commission yesterday, is to supersede the present law which is defective in that it does not properly define the offense of vagrancy. Violation of the ordinance i is made misdemeanor punisha ble by a fine not to exceed $500 or by Imprisonment in the city jail for a nericd not to exceed 1S0 days or by both.
 i The vagrancy bill was accompanied by measure designed to abolish the traffic in drugs. According to the provisions of this ordinance it is m lawful for any person other than a duly licensed druggist or physician tc have any narcotic drug in his or he, nossession. It is also punishable offense to have a pire. lamp, syrinee or ether appliance for the Dreparaticr or use of drug in cne's possession he extreme penalty provided fo1 offenders is a fine of $500 and in rrisonment in the city jail for six months

 10 look at these men you might think they were lying comfortably Tn bed propped up with pillows. They are really sitting in bath tubs in watar to thelr waists. A constant sream of water with a temperature of ninety eight is kept running through the tub rltsifying and cleansing the wounds which have no other dressing. kind of magnificent lap-board covers the top of the tub, and is in turn covered by large, bright patch quilt. And there the men sit on air cushions. leaning against air pillows, day and night, sometimes for weeks at a time. Only the most serious cases are put into these baths, men who otherwise would have little chance of recovery and none without the am. putation of a limb. But never yet has case so treated been lost
 Its beastly uncomfortable the first week., said the record case of the ward, British Tommy who was for eleven weeks in the bath. Your legs ache, and you have the water rash. But in a week, at most, you get over that and then it is more comfortable than being in bed. In fact, after they put you back in bed YOU can't sleep for awhile, it's so hard.'
 The American Y M. c. A. has been sending these men to the movies, twice a week.
