MINE AND MILL MEN
 THROUGH MISTAKE
 LOSE HOURS SLEEP
Special to The Republican)

RAY, Ariz., March 31.-The daylight saving plan brought confusion in the Ray district before daylight itself ar rived. When the thousands of miners and mill men employed at the Ray Consolidated, the Hercules, Broken Hills and other properties, went to bed last evening they advanced their clocks one hour. Because of this advance they figured they would be expected to go to work one hour earlier by their clocks than ordinarily and so they set the alarm attachment back one hour.
 The early morning shift changes at 2:90 o'clock. An hour before that. in most instances an hour and a, half ear Her. alarm clocks began sending out their warnings. Big BenS in Ray, Son oratown. Hayden and vicinity changed lustily. Weary miners began chamber ing into their working clothes and started for the mines. Millmen dressed hlrriedly and approached the gates awaiting the booming of the big whis- ties announcing the change of shift
 In the cool night air the men gath cred and waited but no sound came from the whistles. They discussed the situation and time wore on. And then an hour after practically all the men were on hand ready to take up their shift, the notes of the whistles dis turbed the quiet of the night. The men went to their stations and the first shift under the new plan was at work The men had lost a perfectly good sleeping period of one hour" Ii won't happen again.

STARTLING PICTURE
 COMING ID PHOENIX

For several weeks amusement man. agers at the Liberty theaters through out the entire United States have been e-viewing and getting ready to screen the most startling and stupen- dous picture ever turned out of a studio It has been called "The Kaiser, The Beast of Berlin and. contrary to a belief that might exist it is not a war picture.
 On the contrary, it is ah intimate stringing of events in the life of the beast" who has plunged all Europe into war. Opening with a beautiful pastoral scene in Belgium, it goes rap- idly into the life of the kaiser and lays bare in dramatic incidents the inside workings of the court of this greedy blood mad monarch of Europe. From the time the little blacksmiths s helper in a Belgium village lays the invading German commander low with a horseshoe from his fathers shop, to the locking of the jail door behind the kaiser when prophetic picture of the end of the great struggle is shown with the defeated "beast'' being turned over to Belgium to be held prisoner for the rest of his days, this picture is just one smashing revelation after an other.
 It opened simultaneously yesterday 1 in every big city in America, and d confirmation of it's reception and the statement of the Hip management re- 1 garding the difficulty of getting it here, for the reason that every city in l the United States is offering it at
 much advanced prices, will be found in 1 the Los Angeles paper of yesterday. | The policy of the Hip is to show <fle ! biggest that it can purchase at it's 1 regular house rate and this was the
 stumbling block.
 l The manager of the Hip went to Los
 Angeles ten days ago at the invitation Of the maker of the picture to be pres
 ent at the pre-view given to army of-
 ficers from Fort Kearny and represent
 ative citizens of the coast city and saw
 the independent theaters of Los An geles battle for the right to show the picture, offering in the contest more ! rental than was ever paid for picture | in the history of the city.
 It is said that no American, less his blood be made of ice water, can re-
 main in his chair as this smashing
 story unfolds.
 It comes Wednesday, Thursday, Fri
 day and Saturday.

EXTRA CLERK WILL
 AID IN HURTING
 WORK 0F ELECTION

When the polls open tomorrow morn- ing at s o'clock for the general munich pal election, prospective voters will observe an additional clerk stationed just outside the voting place. This clerk will be charged with the duty of taking the name of each applicant to vote, securing his number from the precinct register and ot furnishing a slip of paper bearing the name and the number of each such applicant.
 City Manager Y. A. Thompson, act ing on the suggestion of City Clerk Frank Thomas, yesterday issued an or der directing that such clerks be em- ployed at each of the polling places. This plan, it is expected. will result in greatly facilitating voting. It means that a voter after securing his or her number from outside the polling place, enters and gives that number to the polling clerk inside, receiving imme- dlately the necessary ballot. The name is called and is easily located by the number.
 Previously there has been some con- fusion at the polling places and long delays because of the trouble in find ing the names of voters. This system, it is claimed, does away with this de- lay and will assist in recording votes with dispatch.
 The polls will be open at G. o'clock tomorrow morning and will remain open until o'clock in the evening.

MESA, April 1.--The election of Dr. C. Shouse to position of trustee on the grammar school board of Mesa to take place of o. $. Stapley who has refused his name for reelection, came as d SUI prise to many even of his friends, who had not know that the doctors name was on the ticket until they were handed the ballot. For the benefit of those who have not lived long in Mesa or other portions of district No. 4, which reaches some II miles to the east, it may be stated that the new member is a prosperous Tancher liv- ing quietly at his splendid farm on the Roosevelt highway Dr. Shouse was a practicing physician before com ing tO Arizona some years ago, having followed his profession at Excelsior Springs.

lBN the Busy Ad-Man)

You know 1 told you last week that getting up the questions was no snap and that I was going to try and catch you mapping just the same. Well, the laugh was on me sure enough, for there are two correct answers to question number three, and it wasn't bad at that because it gave the bright contestants a chance to speculate and figure a little but the question that got the most of you was question number eight, and honestly I'm surprised that any of you should think that declared is hyphenated word, just because it had dash showing that it was carried over to the next line.
 Do you know what 1 wish l had done in this contest? 1 wish I had put up a prize for the best answer that was incorrect, for there are SC many that show that the contestant
 has put lots of time and attention on getting up the answer and has shown so much originality and genu-
 inc worth that I'd like to sec some
 of them get in the money, but there's
 money only for those that are cor
 rect, so the judges don't even con- slider those that are incorrect.
 However, and notwithstanding, the only dope 1 can give you is to get
 in the game and not let it happel again. Be sure that everyone of youl questions are absolutely Jake Sometimes you will have to ask some one else or consult old man Danie Webster or the map of Turkey ol a laundry list or Joe Miller's jokt
 book, but you sure will get it righ | if you figure.

BASEL, Switzerland, March 31.-The the Thursday edition of which has been received here, sounds a note of warn ing to the Teutonic allies as follows:
 victories will never force the entente to accept a peace of violence. If the Germans could take Calais and Paris, and even force France and Italy to capitulate. there will ever remain the English hidden in their isle and Amer ica protected by the ocean. They can always continue the war by sea. The greatest victory cannot impose peace of violence on America and England 9

violations of the prohibition law. This eNldence. he said, was submitted to the county attorney, along with evidence which had been gathered by detectives secured by the State Temperance Fed eration. against some fifty-five other persons, warrants having been served on thirty-five. This evidence, Dr. Hughes said had been put in early in the week. but that no action had vet been taken in this case. The doctor stated that the county attorney had told him that none would be taken un- til after the election.
 Both pr. Hughes and Dr. Wilkinson dwelt upon the fact that so many vio- lations of the prohibition law had been discovered in Phoenix as proof of the lax conditions that have been permit ted to exist here.
