SOLDIERS
CAMP
: : LEWIS

TACOMA, Wn., Dec. 24-War
service societies Of Camp Lewis
made possible today one of the lar
gest Christmas festivities ever held
in an army camp. More than 10000
soldiers from all parts of the United
States who were in training in this
camp enjoyed a living Christmas
tree last night and today was given
one of the largest "festive dinners"
ever put up by company cooks.
The tree on which thousands of
electric lights glfttered was picked
from one of the many hundred speci-
mems of large pine tree that are so
abundant around Tacoma.
Despite the fact that a great
many of the soldiers who have re-
ceived their discharges and had left
for home, depleted the ranks of a
number of the companies, more than
10, 900 men Joined in the occasion.
Citizens came out to the camp in
autos from the cities, bringing with
them Christmas food and holiday
supplies.
A new ruling made by the war
board mekes it possible for soldiers
to get their discharge at Camp Lew
is regardless of previous order
that men were to be discharged at
the camps nearest their homes. 1t
is thought that this comes about
owing to the fact that Camp Lewis
is the largest of the army canton
ments and on account of the many
units of the service stationed, there
it was impossible to segregate the
branches of the service so that dis
charges could be issued from any
one specific point.

MERCHANTS SAY
XMAS BUSINESS
WAS Good

A representative of TIL EOASIS
has interviewed number of the
most prominent business men of No
gales, and without exception they all
agree that Christmas business has
been excellent, that sales have been
large and gratifying.
There has been a general light
heartedness at the close of hostili-
ties with the dawn of peace, and
there has been general loosening
of finances with much greater dis
position to purchase and bestow gifts
than was anticipated "a few weeks
ago. Then it looked as though there
might be yet for several years con-
tinuous appeals for Liberty Bonds,
United War Work needs, etc., etc.,
that would : require continued and
aecrful boarding. Returning peace
suspended that fear, and gave all q
srhance to see that there will be q
relief from the strain of past

Everybody who could make the
rifle was at home yesterday, travel
was light, few guests at the hotels,
nothing doing on the streets, or any
where else, and today news is cas-
scarce as hens teeth"
The effects of the "flu" scahe is
apparent in attendance at the schools
and theatres. In the schools one
class of 26 has but 10 pupils in at
tendance, and another of Is has but
four.
Lieut.. Duane Bird, who was dis
charged from military service at
Camp Pike a few days ago, was ex-
pected to return home Tuesday or
Christmas day. But he came not.
Instead there was received by his pa
rents a telegram conveying the in
formation that he was snowbound at
Pratt, Kansas. He expressed hope
to get home within a few days.
Hon. and Mrs. Frank ]. Duffy are
in receipt of a letter from their son,
Serg't Francis Duffy, S4Oth Field
Artillery, in which he was permitted
to mention for the first time where
his regiment was located. When
the armistice was signed and the
battling ceased the 340th F. A. was
at a point II miles southeast from
Metz.

CHARITY BALL
THIS EVENING.
WILL DEFRAY.
COST OF FREE.
GIFTSFOR THE.
LOCAL KIDDIES.

The Grand Charity Ball will take
place at Anding Hall this evening,
and the ladies of the Parent
Teachers Association trust that
there will be liberal patronage, with
a large turnout of society people.
The original plan of this ball was
that it should be held two weeks
earlier, with the proceeds to be de-
voted to relieving the suffering Of
the poor, and defraying the cost of
the public Christmas tree. General
prevalence of influenza compelled
postponement, and this evening has
been finally selected to carry out
the plan.
But the Christmas tree committee
of the Association carried out the
plan for the "tree," and it culminat-
ed Wednesday afternoon-a great
success, as is testified by all who
witnessed the proceedings. Little
folks by hundreds and adults by
scores were made happy by the free
will offering of those people in No
gales who are IN better circumstan-
ces. However, there were many ar
ticles which had to be purchased at
the stores; and the committee had to
incur debts that must be paid out
from the proceeds of the ball to-
night. For which reason the COM
mittee asks that all purchase tickets
to the ball and that they attend the
function tonight. A very enjoyable
time is assured all who attend.
Tickets are on sale at all the
banks and at the principal stores.
Beside that a canvassing committee
will call on all, giving. opportunity
to purchase tickets.
Don't forget, and buy tickets. The
price is 81 so each. ts5E @1

OBSERVED IN
WHITE HOUSE
FIRST time IN
HIS TORY OF
u. S. NATION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.-For
the first time in the history of the
nation, Christmas was not observed
in the White House. The famous
White House kitchen was void of the
savory odor of a 40 pound turkey
that has graced the Christmas table
of the home of Americas chief ex-
ecutive for the past fifteen years.
Secretary Baker made an excel
lent Santa Claus for the poor chill
dren of the city. A large christmas
tree celebration was held in the ro-
tunda of the capital building where
thousands of the poor children Of
Washington received gifts of cloth
ing, toys and food.
Secretary Daniels of the navy left
late today for New York where he
will review the home coming battle
ships of the fighting squadron. The
boats are reported as having ap-
preached the channel at an early
hour this afternoon.

doors by number of societies of the
city at which the home coming of
the boys and the declaration of peace
were artistically portrayed by the
children.
Despite cold weather large num-
Der of people have turned out for a

Through several days past Sheriff
R. r. Earhart and deputies, working
in unison with Sheriff Henry D.
Hall of Pinal county, and Sheriff ].
T. Miles of Pima county, their depu-
ties, have been watching all the
roads leading toward the interna-
tional border, with the object of

or men) who started from Florence
in this direction Saturday night, in
a Jordan car stolen from the prison
garage, of which shey& had charge.
Sheriff Hall is in Tucson directing

The two slept in the prison garage
at Florence. They departed about

They were heard from in
the vicinity of Vail Monday after
noon or evning. Word was sent to
Sheriff Earhart, who went to Elgin
with Deputy Sheriff Clyde Shields,
and the two put in the night trailing
the roads in the region between Rain
Valley and the Empire rancho, but
they found no trace of the fugutives.
With the escapes are two women.
One is Mrs. Grace Landers of Phoe-
nix, 19-year-old "grass widow. y
who had been in Florence a couple of
weeks. She is supposed to have con-
nived in the escape. The other is

in support of his candidacy at Cum
pas and Moctezuma, beside other
poitns in the Moctezuma district.
The career of General Pesquiera
in the public service Of the republic
has been brilliant and effective,
having been connected with the ad-
ministration of affairs in the state
of Sonora under Governor Jose Ma
ria Maytorena, at the time of the
uprising against the usurpations of
General Huerta. Afterward, the
general was connected with the mil,
itary operations against Huertistism
under lead of First Chief Carranza
(now President) of the Constitu-
tional army. When Carranza visit
ed Sonora Pesquiera embraced the
cause Of constitutionalism, becoming
the right hand of the government as
sub-secretary of war. Afterward he
was sent to the state OF S1naloa, as
governor ad interim, where he made
a most excellent chief executive,
maintaining order and encouraging
industry, to which latter he impaired
a wonderful implse.
Ultimately the subject of these
lines was elevated to the post of
President of the Supreme Military
Tribunal of the republic, from
which he has been permitted to re-
tire, in order that he enter the can

Christmas in Nogales this year
was not etravagant nor noisy, and
there was little of public demonstra-

"flu" with general adoption of Sc
clusion and sequestration, tended to

DENVER HAS
N0MA|L SINCE
LAST MONDAY.

DENVER, Dec. 25.-Mail trains
into Denver from the east have been
unable to reach here since last Mon
day on account of the heavy SHOWS.
The post offices here are swamped
with, undistributed packages that
have arrived on short locals. A fast
mail from Chicago is due here to-
night, according to train dispatchers
along the line. Snow plow service
has been doing double duty.
Denver people expecting Christ
mas packages which were to have
arrived on the oath will not receive
them until tomorrow and probably
not until the end of the week as con-
gestion in the offices will tie up dis
tribution of parcel post service. No
packages are thought to be on the
train expected tonight as the letter
bags and parcel post hampers have
been segregated.
Letters will reach here first.
Train dispatchers say that service
is tied up as far down as Deming
and into Albuquerque. Trains are
from Z to "a hours late.
