UNUSUAL CASE
 COMES UP HERE

Although Colonel F. S. Breen has re- linquished the work of the adjutant general in connection with the opera ton of the selective service law in Ari- zona. letters still pursue him from members of local boards and other as- sistants in the examining of registrants who are under the impression that Colonel Breen has the fixing of their pay and is grinding them down to the least possible amount. One physician writes
 T was the only physician in the county who could or would serve as re-eXamining physician. l live ten miles from the county seat and this necessitated me making a drive of 20 miles each day and a corresponding heavy expense, as follows: 31 trips, 20 miles each, 620 miles at 20 cents a mile, SPA; 31 dinners at 50 cents each S15.50; total, $139.50.
 T regret very much" replied Colonel Breen, that there is no provision other than that shown in the regulations cov- ering expenses for additional or re-ex- amining physicians. 1 fully realize that the amount allowed is insufficient, but it was presumed by the government that additional physicians would serve more or less without pay, owing to the patriotic nature of the work engaged i'm If there were any way in which additional pay could be secured, would gladly pay same"
 The pay allowed by the government for physicians in this work is $1 per day.

PATHETIC CASE |S
 SETTLED IN COURT

Brought to dramatic climax when the defendant became hysteri- cal on the witness stand and was taken fainting from the court room, the case of the state versus Mrs. Jacob Aaron was disposed of by Justice Wheeler who held Mrs. Aaron under a $1OO peace bond and made the suggestion that the county authorities look into her mental con ditiOn. The action on peace bona was brought by Mrs. B. E. Marks, who alleged that Mrs. Aarof. had made serious threats against her life and who, on the stand yesterday, testified that she did not feel safe while Mrs Aaron was at large.
 T do not believe the woman is sane." declared Mrs. Marks.
 Then why not institute insanity proceedings rather than criminal ac- tioI.?" asked the counsel for the defense.
 Mrs. Marks testified as to the street episode of several days ago. She said she was passing Mrs. Aaron's fruit stand at the corner of Second and Washington streets when Mrs. Aaron attacked her, crying she would spill her blood as her dead sons blood had been spilled She declared that one of her earrings had been broken, and a button torn loose on her coat, but denied thal she had struck Mrs. Aaron and stated that if the latter's glasses had been broken she had done il herself while madly waving her arms. Mrs. Marks said she was in- tensely afraid of Mrs. Aaron.
 J. NJ. Durand, a Mexican eye wit ness, corroborated Mrs. Marks testi- mony He stated that Mrs. Marks had attempted to stay off her az gressor.
 Mrs. J. M. Callahan, who saw the end of the trouble, witnessed Mrs. Marks take Mrs. Aarons hands and back off from the scene.
 Norman Feelings, an 11-year- old boy. was one of the many who say only the end of the encounter. He picked Mrs. Aaron's glasses from the street and returned them to her, he said, when they fell from the sweater she was wearing to the street. MT. Marks was the last witness for the state.

UNUSUAL PLANT
 GOES UNHEEDED

Alleging that common people are freer in their actions than society peo- ple," M. A. Woodward in a petition for d writ of habeas corpus for R. w. Parks and Mrs. Lizzie Allen, explains the position of the couple, held in the county jail on the charge of adultery. The petition was brought on the ground that sufficient evidence was not intro duced at the preliminary examination before Justice Wheeler to hold the man and woman, but after d brief hearing the application for a writ was denied by Judge Stanford.
 In his petition MT Woodward ad- mitted that Mrs. Allen, who is the mother of four children, would some times don her kimona and while Parks slept, rest by his side. This he said she did in full view of all and that MT. Parks was always very respectful in his manner and never hugged or kissed her or showed her any sign of affection.
 The complaining witness, Leslie AL len, the husband of the woman, is charged in the petition with being on probation in Los Angeles county for wife beating. The family is poor and to make ends meet Mrs. Allen took Parks as a boarder, claims the attor ney. He occupied the largest room in the house, the house being in the 200 block on Monroe street. This room opened into the bedroom occupied by Mrs. Allen and her daughters. Parks is alleged to be a heavy sleeper and after he retired the family used his room as living room, the mother often reading to the children after the supper dishes were washed and put away. When she became weary she would rest on the bed with Parks. This, claims Woodward, is customary with the poor CT classes and should not be taken to mean more than it actually does. He points out this fact to show how groundless are the charges against the defendants.
