Halifax Disaster at Hip

 The ending of the picture version of this gripping expose of side of New York life not often seen in print, is | novel in that it stamps the lesson of the unfaithful wife without leaving a bad taste.
 Augmenting the big feature will be the first authentic pictures of the ex- plosion at Halifax acclaimed as the greatest catastrophe of the past 20 years. Its appalling loss of life and the | queer twists taken by the injuries in- | fiicted to this maritime city of Nova Scotia supplies a wonderful review of the results of the collision of the mu- milton ship Monte Blanc and an out going Red Cross steamer. The pictures are in themselves wonderful lesson to this nation now at war for it is a current rumor that the work of spy was responsible for the disaster.

The special drive for the past two months for the new Deaconess hes pital has been to secure members for the Booster club. The very encourag- ing result is tabuIated in the signed statement herewith given:
 Phoenix, December 31. 1917. THIS IS TO CERTIFY that the un- dersigned have examined the subscrip- ton cards for the Deaconess Hospital Twenty Thousand Dollar Club and find that two hundred asd sixteen bona fide signatures have been obtained. Each card represents a pledge of one hun dred dollars or a total of twenty one thousand six hundred dollars.
 CHAS. A. STAUFFER, Business Manager Arizona Republican
 A. G. DULMAGE. Manager McArthur Brothers Auto Co. The canvass was confined entirely to Phoenix and principally to the com mercial center of the city. The two propositions which appealed strongly to the signers, were the life member ship on easy payments and twenty per cent discount for accommodations in the new plant.
 Several of the Booster membery have already paid in full and not a few others will so do before maturity. Spe- cial credit is due the secretary of a copper corporation who suggested prospects.

Declaring that he gave the signal and that if E. J. White had not at- tempted to pass before his car he would not have been hurt, Lon Gib- son, on trial for alleged reckless driving, testified in Justice De Souzas court yesterday that he was not to blame for the accident which oc- cured one week ago.
 After hearing the conflicting testi- mony the court took the matter under advisement until 1:3O o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
 The accident took place at Jef- ferson street and Central avenue. White claims that when he heard the footing of the horn he jumped and was struck by the car and dragged several feet.
 The defendant claims that White deliberately jumped in front of the moving car and that an accident was unavoidable. Whites clothing was torn but he was not seriously hurt. The distance he was dragged ranged from Is to 10 feet. according of wi.le sses.
