 WH|SKEY AND HOLD
 ALLEGED CONS|GNEE

With the seizure of 10S pints of wnis- key, worth s1,0S0 at local prices, and the arrest of Jose Vasauez Losata shortly before noon yesterday, Phoenix police officers and federal authorities are confident that they have plugged the last big whiskey leak from Los Angeles to Phoenix.
 Selzure of the contraband and the arrest of Losata followed weeks of "Watchful waiting on the part of city and federal authorities, and it dis closed a method entirely new in whis- key shipments
 The whiskey was labeled as "olive oil, consigned to M. Artia" and "M. Artea' at Phoenix. Eacn case con- talned F, one-gallon tin olive oil cans. Each can contained three pint bottles of whiskey and a quantity of excelsior, to prevent breakage. Each case also contained large portion of excelsior. The bottoms had been soldered on after the whiskey had been packed.
 Incidentally, this method has led of ficers to believe that Losata is only one of a large gang that has been operating in the traffic.
 For days city officers have been awaiting an opportunity to make the arrest, but it did not present itself until Sunday morning. A shipment of the contraband arrived in Phoenix Thursday morning, officers learned yesterday, but it escaped their trap. | When two cases arrived Sunday morning, however, no time was lost in following the clue. Officers awaited the arrival of the consignee.
 Losata evidently saw the officers

RECORD CROWDS
 AT RESORT FUR
 THE LUKE DANCE

One of the biggest crowds in the parks history turned out to the Luke memorial dance at Riverside park last night, and when the evening was over $350 had been added to the now ever growing Luke memorial fund to erect a lasting memorial to the county's dead in war
 It was Luke night at the park, and the park management and private citizens alike contributed to the events. The dancing pavilion was turned over entirely to the alumni Luke committee for the occasion, and all proceeds went to the memorial fund. The park and pavilion were decorated in the national and high school colors; a very good orchestra furnished very good and ap- propriate music, and nothing was emitted to make the night a success
 One of the features of the night was the cutting and auctioning of the Frank Luke cake, baked from special receipes by Donofrio and purchased Saturday night al. the memorial tourna- ment by Dr. N. H. Morrison. Dr. Mor- rison in turn gave the cake to the alumni committee, and last night its Is pieces brought s20 for the fund.
 Another attractive feature of the 5iaAl was lne uOHdtiOn Ol IU Lukt pictures by Heath the photographer | The pictures were auetioned off and | brought in another stream of money for the fund.
 No estimate was made on the crowd that attended, but it was generally con- ceded record one. The dance was managed by the alumni memoria l committee, consisting of H. Mitten | Don Hultz, B. OMalley, l.. Hart Thayer Burtis, Albert Pinney, J. Fergu

MYSTERIOUS FIRE ON
 S0UAW PEAK WAS BOY SCOUTS CELEBRATION

The mysterious fire on the crest of Squaw Peak late Saturday night was explained yesterday. It was the huge bonfire of Boy Scout Troops 1 and 3 of Phoenix. set a-going to celebrate the signing of the peace treaty.
 All wlde-awak Boy Scouts were re- quested by national headquarters to build bonfires to celebrate the signing of the treaty that officially ended the world war. Phoenix Troops 1 and 3 carried out instructions to the letter by building their fire on the top of Sduaw Peak, the highest land near Phoenix.
 The Scouts fire was a brilliant suc- cess, burning from 9:30 o'clock until after l o'clock yesterday morning with clear bright light that could be seen from the greater part of the valley. The scouts innocently caused consider able excitement, however, as the mys- terious light attracted much attention and resulted in telephone call after telephone call to The Republican office and the sheriffs office.
 So great was the excitement, in fact, that when the scouts started to return home they met several motor cars whose passengers had taken the trou- ble to come out and investigate. The occupants of the first car carried quite an arsenal, but on learning why the fire existed they joined in the celebration enthusiastically.
 Interest in the mysterious" light Saturday night was due directly to an incident some weeks ago, when a story in The Republican told of a mysterious | light on Squaw Peak which was thought to have been lighted by g woman, Mrs. Carrie Hedstrum. wine had been missing several days and whose body was found a few days l later on the peak of the mountain. The mysterious light several weeks ago. it developed, was also due to the Boy Scouts, who were using it [, signal to other scouts on the roof oi the Y. NJ. c. A., and was not lighted by the missing woman at all. Tn, reason that the body was not found that night by the scouts was explained by the fact that they did not reacl the peak until after dark and attempt ed no, exploring, after reaching th' point hey desired.

JAIL TERM.
 ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
 BY SLASH|NC SELF

Bud Wellington, serving a 60-day sentence in the county jail, made an attempt to commit suicide early Sun day evening by slashing his left arm with safety razor blade. He will re- cover, barring unforeseen developments, according to Dr. H. K. Beauchamp, who attended him in his cell.
 Although cutting a gash nearly to the bone and about three inches long, Wellington's unfamiliarity with anat- omy probably saved his life. Several small arteries were severed but the sharp blade missed the larger blood vessels. The cut was just below the left elbow
 Prior to the attempt to take his life, Wellington wrote a lengthy letter in which he bid goodbye to all and stated that ''by the time you find this, I'll be dead" He also directed county officers as to the disposition of his per sonal belongings.
 A brother prisoner discovered the attempted suicide within a few min- utes after the cut had been made. We'll ington was bleeding profusely at the time. Heavy knocks on the doof brought the jailer and deputies and pr. Beauchamp was in turn summoned Several stitches were necessary ir the wound but the attending physi- clans stated that no serious eonse-
 quences were to be expected.

SOLD MACKINAW AND
 BOUGHT IT BACK AGAIN.
CFrom Sundays Da,Iv.l

A Mexican labOrer at Fort Whip
 pie who gave his name as Manuel Apodaca was arrested yesterday aft ernoon by Chief Bloom on a charge of stealing Mackinaw from one of his fellow worImen The officer was told that the Mexican had stol- cn the coat and then sold it to a secondhand dealer in this city for the sum of $L50.
 After the man had told one of his friends of the price which the deal CT had paid him for the Maclinaw, the latter replied that the seller had made a big mistake in selling the garment at such a low figure, and told Apodaca where he could sell the coat for not less than S. This be- ing the case, the Mexican wanted tne NacLinaw back and told the second- hand dealer as much.
 Well owing to the fact that I have to make something on this transaction, this coat will cost you g if you want it back again
 Apodaca was quite certain that he wanted it back again, and peeled off two toad skins from his bouquet of green which he carried in his wal let, having in the meantime visions of the three dollars clear profit which would be his when he could locate the fellow who would be will ing to part with five dollars for the stolen garment.
 Saturday, it would seem, was a real dyed-in-the-wool Jonah day for Man Iel. for he had hardly left the pawn shop when Chief Bloom bounced 1pon him and escorted him over to lc sheriff's office.

 It has expended something than million dollars in the construction of steel and buildings all of which, if the order carried will for generations the governments folly waste which, unfortunately many costly have reared themselves within the last years It assumed from the character of the strucon Whppe that there be hospital the comfort and rebuilding of the soldiers of only the present but the soldiers of armies which would maintain through the life of the nation
 Perhaps the government still walking among the clouds thinks that with the which being offered Russian boshevists the will armies and consequently convaescent soldiers and therefore, end of the need of military hospital for valescents.
 This order is of piece with those which issued mediatey after the signing of the armse for the abandonment housing operations in hundreds of cities and towns and the loss of all the millions that had been spent whereas the completed buildings might be sold where every where, housing facilities inadequate
 It of course that the government does need hospital Whppl dispose of the already made there The completion of the buildings would only add the But the probability that the hospital will strong that standing army will be much greater than before the war would good business for the government to finish the work
 And there is nowhere in world where climate cond- ons would more generously lend themselves the rebuilding soldiers, wasted in military duties amid pine clad hills about Prescott
