WE HAVE WITH US TODAY
tBy The Observer)

Among the notorious celebrities now doing duty on the jury in Tomb stone may be mentioned several who have gained distinction other than doing jury duty for various reasons. all of which we will not relate but here are a few that are readable. to say the least:
 George Jay, formerly of Naco, now of Warren, is not only sue cessful business man but he will make a good juror. for any man that can slide around in the Republican party and play in both wings of the party and not get shot is think ing man and well qualified for a juoror.
 An old time Tombstonite on the jury is H. D. Madison now living in "Sulpherville." but formerly pro prietor of the Arlington Hotel and also lessee of the gas and electric light plant here. MT. Madison is enjoying his two weeks here on the jury and when not doing duty he spins around Tombstone boule- wards in a big touring buggy of the gasoline kind.
 Col. T. D. Fplghum is among those present and says he hasn't en- joyed himself so much since the ex- citement he had few months ago in trying to figure out how and why the Douglasites double crossed him on the county division game. Never again with that bunch" says the tall sycamore" from Wilcox.
 Another former Tommstonite with us for two weeks is Win. Cummings of Gleeson. "Bill' is spending his | spare time renewing acquaintances and last night he had one of his for. mer 'compadres" in a corner and they were going over the night that 1 the two Bills-BiIl Cummings and Bill Hattich pulled off their great act in Damon and Pythias," in the Shenin Theatre some years back Bill says that they played their parts in a serious vein but that the audi ence took both of their efforts to be comedy for at any rate they got . laugh.

 "The exterior of the new addition will, of course, correspond with the remainder of the capital" stated Mir. Ladd. but in the interior fin ishing it will far surpass the old building.

YOUNG EDITOR piscARps
 PENCIL FOR RIFLE

SAN SIMON. Feb. 27-The door of the little print shop at San Simon from which there has been issued every week a little newspaper. was locked yesterday. and Friday its sub scribers will wait in vain for it to arrive with the latest gossip of the neighborhood. with its bits of old war news, and editorial attacks on the Hun.
 The editor has gone to war.
 Noble F. Justice-never a hero of fiction had more appropriate name has laid aside his pencil and taken up the rife. the door of the little print shop is locked. and on the door appears a notice explaining that is is ''on account of the war;" a justification that is finding its way in the lives of Americans in new ways every day.
 Editor Justice is only 20 years old and he is the support of the family The print shop. he xeplained, was just getting on its feet" and it was getting into the hearts of the people. but something had got into the heart of Justice. too. and it bade him lay aside his pencil and shoul. der the rife. His mother vowed that her hand might be paralyzed before she would sign an exemption affidavit for her son when he should become 2l years ot age and sub ject to the draft. from which it will be seen that nobility runs in the Justice family. So. Mrs. Justice supported her son in his determin- ation to enter Uncle Sam's service The navy appealed to Justices ad- venturous spirit, but the navy does not need men so acutely as the branches of the service for which Uncle Sam is carrying on enlistment campaigns. and at the suggestion of Corporal Pat Murphy. of the To. cal recruiting station. Justice join. ed the engineers. where his knowl edge of the printing craft will be utilized
 It was almost a holiday in San Simon when the news was carried about from mouth 10 mouth, that Editor Noble F. Justice was going to quit editorials about the war and become a soldier, and when the youthful newspaper man went to board the train yesterday the whole town turned out to bid him goodbye and good luck.
 The papers just getting ou itl feet" said Justice, as he was being examined by Corporal Murphy. T, will be a good opening for some body" But Justice thinks there i. an opening for him, and many like him, closer to the front than a news paper office.
