OF THREE WARS GOES TO LABOR
 FOR COVER INTENT
J. E. LATHAM LEFT YESTERDAY WITH CONTINGENT FOR NoR- FOLK, VlRGlNIA-lS SEVENTY FIVE YEARS OF AGE-DROVE STAGE IN EARLY DAYS

Yesterday the Warren district com munity board shipped out twenty-six men to Norfolk, Va, where they are to be given employment by the govern ment around the navy yards at that place. Among the number was J.E. Ratham, who has been a familiar char acter about the district for a number of years, and who worked at odd jobs. He is a man 75 years old but is hale and hearty and was anxious to go and stated before he left that if he got that far east he was going to see serv- ice in France if he had to stow him. self aboard in order to get over there.
 Mr. Ratham is a pioneer in Arizona. He has lived here for over forty years. He drove a stage over the old Butter field route from Fort Bowie to Tucson before the Southern Pacific railroad was built. He drove six horses. At that time the route ran from Fort Bowie through Apache pass, through Wilcox. via DragoOn, and then crossed the San. Pedro river at Tres Alames, about nine miles below Benson, and then on into Tucson
 He is an old Confederate veteran, and also saw service for the govern ment in Cuba and the Philippines as a teamster He will endeavor to get in that service again if possible while he is in the east. He has many friends in the Warren district, who hope that he will realize his ambitions and be able to get across to France to do his share in the cause of democracy.
 The others who left yesterday were:
 Henry Campbell. sherman Jones. William Forrest, William Wood. A. s. Thomas, Charles Fair, Lee Piatt. R. Maxwell, Fl. D. Heard. I. l.. Switzer. Jess Martin. J. c. Tindall. R. L. Doug las. J. E. Ratham, c. J. Elias. Miguel ButiereZ. Francisco Gomez, William Rice, Carl Bohannon, Joe Turner. A. Holman, Jack Cowan. c. H. Menafee, Pete Fritz, Fred Willis and c. F. Me Ginity.

CRAzED WITH DRINK
 DRIVES GAR INTO
 FRONT ALLEN BLOCK
DAVID WALSH, BETTER KNOWN AS "PINKY," THE AUTO DRIVER, STEALS GAR AND IN MAD RACE CONES TO GRIEF

Last evening about o'clock David Walsh, an auto driver. better known as "Pinky," while under the influence Of intoxicating liquor took the car of Harry NJ. Finnotti, shift boss of the Copper Queen company, which was standing alongside the Copper Queen store and started up the Subway at a lively gait. As he passed the Copper Queen dispensary. Officer Sheppard saw him and ordered him to stop, but the drunk crazed man only increased his speed and tried to make the turn to go up the street between the dis pensary and the Allen block, but he was going at such a rate of speed that he could not make the turn and ran directly upon the porch and started up the steps into the office of Judge High.
 The front of the machine was Dadly damaged, the windshield being bro;- en, two springs broke, and tire blown out and the running board smashed. Walsh was not thrown out of the car but was cut over the nose with the glass from the windshield.
 He was taken out of the car by the officers and taken to the dispensary where the doctors endeavOred to dress his wounds, but he refused to let them. He was held by the officers until it was bandaged up and then he was taken to jail. On the way to the jail he tore the bandages off.
 That there was not someone injured by him in his drive was remarkable as streets were filled with people and r just happened that there was no one crossing from the Bank of Bisbee to- ward the dispensary or coming down the street in front of the Allen block Judge High had just started out of his door to come down the steps when the car hit the bottom. Had he been two seconds earlier he would have been caught between the car and the building. The car just missed the iron pillar that supports the iron girder that holds a part of the second story. Had it been broken serious damage would have resulted.
 This is the second accident that has happened in the city during the past week by men driving cars while in an intoxicated condition and some drastic action should be taken. The streets of Bisbee are narrow and with hun dreds of people walking on them and across them, it is time that they oo given protection from not only driv- CTS in an intoxicated condition but from some of the reckless drivers that make it dangerous to cross the streets. The lives of children and citizens of the district should be pro tected.
 It has not been determined yet by MT. FinnOtti whether or not he will swear out a complaint charging him with the theft of the car which is a felony and punishable by imprison- ment in the state penitentiary. The damage to the car will amount to about S150. A charge of driving a car while in an intoxicated condition will be filed against him in the justice court This is punishable by six months imprisonment in the county jail and a fine of S200, or both.

OVER 100 CASES.

Reports yesterday to the local health officers disclosed the fact that there were about 130 cases of la grippe in the district There hve been but a few serious cases developed. and but two cases of pneumonia. There have been no deaths and while there are several cases in which the patient is quite sick, there are none of them at the present time in a dangerous con dition. All of the schools in the coun- ty have been ordered closed by Coun- ty School Superintendent Miss Toles, and the other towns in the county have taken the same action as did Bisbee in closing all public meetings. etc. There is no feeling of danger, so far among the doctors about con- trolling the disease. The public has viewed the matter as have the doctors and all are doing their utmost to stop the spread of the disease.

COMMITTED SUICIDE.

According to parties in Bisbee yes terday from Gleeson, Cap Powers, an aged miner and prospector who has resided in Gleeson and vicinity for the past dozen years, committed sui eide at his place near the Kendall ranch Saturday evening. It seems that Powers being very i'll of an in- curable disease, refused to go to the hospital at Gleeson for treatment, but owing to his precarious condition. his neighbors there made arrangements anyhow to take him there Saturday night, and when he learned of this while they were gone. committed the rash act. When the neighbors return ed they found him dead with a bull let wound in his heart and the gun lying beside him on the bed The authorities were immediately notified at Gleeson and Coroner Sullivan i'm mediately formed a jury and went to the scene The body was taken to Gleeson and buried there yesterday af ternOOn
