REOPEN PLANS TO FORM FOUR
 TEAM LEAGUE

The Lowell baseball club having been reorganiZed, strengthened and placed under new management. steps are now under way to form a four club league to be composed of the Bisbee and Lowell teams, the First Cavalry and the Nineteenth Infantry. The proposed league has met with en- thusiastic approval on the part of the local fans" and it is believed a good series of games can be arranged for the remainder of the season.
 The Lowell club is now under the management of Bert Whaling, who has entered upon his duties with plenty of pep" and who has his men out for daily practice. Whaling sue ceeds G. D. Pittman, now in the Texas oil fields. Among the new players who have joined the team are Duke LeBeaud, Leo Hines, John McAIpine and w. Gallego of Fl Paso, who have been playing with some of the fastest teams in the Pass City.
 The rejuvenated Lowellites will have their first try-out next Sunday. when they will meet the crack First Cavalry team from Douglas at the Warren grounds. The First Cavalry has twice. humbled the Bisbee team. Last Sunday Lowell lined up with the Bisbee Cubs at Warren but rain stop ped the game in the second inning, so the fans" will have their first oppor- tunity to see what the reorganized team can do next Sunday

TEST CASE ON
 WITNESSES IN
 DENOMINATIONS
Judge Lockwood refuses To o. K. Expenses of IndigentS,
 But Supervisors Do So; To Test Legality of Payments

1 What promises to be an interestine
 test case, arising out of the deporta
 tion cases now being tried in Doug
 las, developed yesterday afternoon
 when the matter of payment of ex
 penses of indigent witnesses came ur
 before the Board of Supervisors, in session in Tombstone.
 A number of claims aggregating something more than $500 were filed with the board for payment, approved
 by the county attorney, but not bear. ing the O K of Judge Lockwood of the Superior court, the court an. nouncing that following his policy of the past six years, he would not ap- prove any allowance for payment of expenses incurred in the justice court, the law leaving the matter to his discretion, and in view of this suggested to the board that the mat ter be brought up in the form of a test case to test the law.
 Following Judge Lockwood's ac- tionj the supervisors, Chairman Adams and Member Roberts present, decided to allow the payment of the demands, totaling about $500, with the exception of one, that of Bert Perry for $27, which was held up. Perry will now, through his attorneys, file a case in the Superior court to mandamus the board to pay the amount, it is said, and in this way the test case is expected to be brought up at once for decision. It is expected the matter will reach court about next week, when Judge McAlister will be here to sit on the local bench, Judge Lockwood natur- ally being disqualified.
 The supervisors, in a statement yesterday afternoon, said that rather than hold up the warrants of the in- digent witnesses in the cases they would be glad to assume the respon- sibility of the payment of the sum ranging near $500, at least until the matter is settled in the courts. Judge Lockwood, speaking for himself, stated that he merely followed out his policy during. the past six years of paying only for those cases arising in the Superior court, and did not believe it policy to approve demands for expense arising in the justice courts, of which he knew nothing. He SdlQ ne WOulu, however, protect Ine supervisors to the extent of the $500 paid out by them, by making a spe- cial court order should the decision be adverse in the test case.%
 The board, however, felt that in paying the demands. they were doing the proper thing, and naturally as- sumed responsibility on themselves rather than allow the matter to hang fire, since one test case would settle the affair. The decision will be awaited with interest
 The board yesterday afternoon also approved the plans of Architect HirtsI for the vault and toilet additions to the courthouse and for the aseptic tanks for the county hospital at Douglas, and ordered bids to be ad- vertised for construction. They also announced that as soon as the rainy weather subsidies, and the San Pedro river goes down, County Engineer Smith will make an investigation of the Benson bridge, and work of re- building will be started

Warren-Bitulithic
 Winning Fame In
 Road Construction

The widespread use of Warren-Bitu. lithic for street and road construction is a flattering tribute to American brains and engineering skill. This type is exclusively an American inven- tion and is in general use in over 500 cities and counties of America. For eigp countries are making greater use of it every year and an American abroad motoring through city or coun- try will soon feel at home riding or this familiar construction.
 In compromising bituminous cement that would hold stone, despite the vibration produced by traffic, and be waterproof. the inventor solved the problem that had baffled earlier road engineers. (Vibration and water being the chief cause of failures of roads.)
 The selection of the proper sizes quantity and quality of stone required considerable experimenting. This con- dition, however, was successfully met and this type of construction laid and spread while hot and then thoroughly compressed by rolling, produces den- sity that withstands all wear of heavy traffic. The aGaptability of this type is well illustrated here in Ari- Zona. It's success in Flagstaff at 30 below zero and in Phoenix and Yuma where the temperature rises to 112 is sufficient to explain it's world wide use.

 Already the fund has resulted in three members being assisted through colleges in which theyk have won degrees. One young man who obtained the appoint ment to the naval academy was without funds to make the trip and provide his equipment and the association lent him $500.
 When applications for loans are made, the applicants request is investigated and if found worthy the needed sum is lent to him on his note at 4 per cent interest. The Bisbee experiment is being watch ed with unusual interest by edu. catOrs.

COUNTY RAISES
 WAGE IF WEN
 ON ROAD WORK

In order to help meet the problem of the soaring cost of living the board of supervisors in session at Tomb stone yesterday afternoon decided to raise the pay of all employees on the county roads from $4 to $4.50 a Gay. The measure was introduced by Su- pervisor Charles M. Roberts and Chairman l. c. F. Adams made a strenuous effort to have the figure raised to $5 day.
 J. NJ. Sparks, the otheer member of the board, was absent. After Chair man Adams had offered to toss a coin with Roberts to see whether the amount should be $4.50 or S5 and Rob- erts had refused, Adams yielded and the figure was adopted at $4.50.
 The raise is retroactive to August 1 and carries a clause that the $45O scale applies only so long as commodi- ties and necessities remain at their present figure. If the cost of living goes any higher, the road employees will get another raise.
