GERMANY AS IT IS TODAY

The German empire, better known as the German vampire, embraces 20S,S30 square miles, but not a single square meal, says the Brooklyn Eagle. It comprises four kingdoms, six grand duchies and 3,S76,531 grand goosesteps. In outline and inclination it is highly irregular. On the east is hounds Lenine. On the north it is bounded by the allied fleets and on the west by General F'och.
 The principal waterways of Germany are the seize and the Kiel canal. The high Cs now under its control are con- fined to the opera house. The Kiel canal is used for exercise by the battle ships on pleasant Sundays. The sea board, greatly restricted like all other kinds of board, is known as the high cost of living. The country is not en- tirely on the level. It has, in the in terior, a large table land, entirely empty. There are also deep depres- sions in all parts of the nation.
 Berlin, the capital, was established in the thirteenth century, on the Spree river. It has not yet recovered. The inhabitants are divided into two ma:n classes-junkers and junked. The pres ent fOoler is Kaiser Bilious II. His principal occupation is looking for a place in the sun. There is something warmer than that in store for him. Ii sounds something like Helgoland.

FIND WHISKY IN
 WATER BOTTLES
 IN SHERIFF RAID
Novel Method of Concealing Booze Discovered In Raid On Rooming House That Uncovcrs Quantity of Booze

In a raid on the Den roOminS house, Sheriff John G. Montgomery yester- day succeeded in a seizure of eight gallons of whisky and in taking into custody Sidney L. Toban alleged to be one of the most notorious bootleggers in Maricopa county and to have come under the suspicion of the federal au- thorities who are Investigating serious charges against him.
 At the noon hour Sheriff Mont gOmery, accompanied by Charles Bowers, Jim Troutman and Ernest Wilson, deputies from his office, and F. c. Grove of the city police, armed with search warrants, entered the Den. Every room in the building was thor oughly searched.
 Finally, at the end of two hours in- vestigation. the officers discovered the hiding place of a large quantity ot liquor in a closet in the room occupied by Toban. Between the floor and ceil- ing were hidden 10 large water bags filled with whisky while several pint bottles found. place in the spaces be- tween. There were still smaller bot ties holding "one drink" which it is al- legged were sold on the city streets for 50 cents. In all the sheriff estimates the amount of liquor at eight gallons
 Mrs. Belle Ryan, manager of the rooming house. was closeted with the authorities several hours yesterday and at the close of the interview the officers stated that they were con- vinced that she had no conIection with the crime.
 The entire blame was placed on Toban. for in no other apartment in the house were to be found the traps and secret passages that Toban is said to have arranged in his room. That the house could. not be held, responsi- ble for the actions of one of it's inmates was the statement of the arresting of- ficer who assolved Mrs. Ryan for all blame.
 Shortly before the raid on the Den Deputy Sheriff Troutman was walking on Second avenue shadowing a man who had come under his suspicion After a few blocks had been covered the stranger in the lead dropped two heavy suitcases and disappeared. The suitcases were found to contain 2 pints of whisky and. these have beer atsded to the fast filling storeroom CT the second floor of the county jail.

METERORIC IRON IN
 PREHISTORIC WEAPON
Scientific American)

In the old world the art of smelting ores was discovered about 1900 B. c. It has sometimes been suggested that iron tools and weapons may have been made at an earlier period from meteor ties, and recently a considerable amount of evidence in behalf of this hypothesis has been presented by c. F. Zimmer.
 He has compiled list of the known iron containing meteorites. nearly all accumulated within the past century. and he shows from these alone about 250 tons of iron might be obtained. Of this amount more than go per cent is malleabe. consisting of nickel iron alloy He also shows by means of a series of illustrations how easy it is to detach from the meteorites fragments of iron suitable for use as tools or i'm plements when mounted in handles

SECOND WAVE 1T INFLUENZA NOW
 |S IN DECREASE
Strict Quarantine Regula- tions Have Had Good Elf feet Report Shows With 151 Releases Past AS Hours

For the first time in two weeks, the official influenza report yesterday showed a decrease in the number of cases existing in Phoenix. The report which covered two days, brought the total number of cases down from 714 to 639, a net gain over the epidemic of 75 cases. With this first favorable report, health officials expressed the opinion that the crest of the flu wave has been safely passed.
 The officials report of the health de- partment last night showed a total of S2 new cases for the two days. of which 66 were in the city and 16 in hospitals Opposed to this there were 151 releases for the same 4S-hour period, all but l4 of them in the city The big percentage Of releases over new cases was taken to indicate the beginning of the wane of the epidemic.
 During AS Hours Leaths
 One discOuraging feature was con- tained in the two day report, however It contained six deaths from influenza, two of them occurring in the Sisters Hospital yesterday.
 Although yesterdays report was con- sidered distinctly favorable one phase of the situation aroused some queries among health officials. Of the 66 cases in the city reported yesterday, q were reported early Sunday morning by one physician, leaving the other doctors in the city, numbering more than 30, only 45 reported cases for two days. Some doubts that all physicians are report ing all their cases were expressed.
 The big decrease in the epidemic shown yesterday was attributed by the health department to the strict quar- antine measures adopted when the epi- demic first began it's second rise. Prac- ticany every case of the disease has been isolated under the quarantine reg ulatiOns, and the fifty special police deputies used by the health department have done valuable work in seeing that quarantines are enforced
 No new developments on the dates of the 1eopening of the schools were indi- cated yesterday. Although it is possible that the schools may reopen sometime this week. if the situation improves sufficiently tO warrant such a move. the general impression was that there VIII be no school until next week.
