JAIL OR LEAVE TOWN ABSTINENCE, AND
 TR|0 |S 0N ITS WAY

Jim Banks is going to leave Phoenix, In fact, if he has not left Phoenix by the time this. appears in print, he will probably be back at his old stamping grounds, the city jail.
 Time without number has Banks ap- peared before City Magistrate Thomas in police court. The charge has never varied, He has always been arrested as a vagrant, but according to the police he has been the head of an all legged dope ring in Phoenix for some time. They have never been able to catch him in the act of selling cocaine, however, but on one or two occasions they found small bottles of the "joy powder in his possession.
 Banks, who is a colored man, when arraigned yesterday afternoon, pleaded earnestly to be allowed to leave the city. Judge Thomas attached a jail sentence of 90 days to him and then gave him his choice of doing the time or leaving the city. Banks solemnly promised he would leave at once.
 Marie Caldwell, colored woman who was arrested in company with Banks, also charged many times with being vagrant and who has served any amount of time, was given the same sentence and the same choice. She too, promised she would be on her way at once. Morris FeliZ, still a third party in the alleged ring, took the same alternative and is probably beyond the city limits.

COLLISION BROUGHT
 MEN WITH UNIQUE
 NAMES INTO COURT

On the complaint of Bird Happy, Nepp Cobb appeared in Justice Wheel CTS court yesterday to answer to a charge of reckless driving, for fate had brought together these two men of un usual names on a road west of the city. Happy said that he was driving along at peace with all the world, as was his ancient nag, when Cobb suddenly swept down upon him and tore off one of his front wheels.
 Cobb admitted the collision, but he said that so far as he was concerned, it was unavoidable; it would have been a wonder if it had not happened. Happy, he said, was giving a spectacle of a man occupying the whole width of a fifty-foot roadway. He would now be on one side of it and now on the other. Cobb said that he trailed along after him until he thought he saw an opening to pass but before he could effect that maneuver, Happy veered across to the other side.
 The case will be further looked into by Justice Wheeler.

MEXICAN INSISTED
 OV ACTING ''CRAZY''

Motorcycle Officer Papo, of the city police force, is a very agreeable per son and is always ready and willing to agree with everyone, just so their ideac are not bolshevik. Yesterday morning before the day force of the police had registered for duty, Papo was holding the citadel all alone, when a Mexican entered the office and asked Papo to agree that he was not crazy.
 Papo was very willing to agree that his visitor was not in any way insane. The Mexican left after the officer had advised him to consult doctor, but good advice is sometimes disregarded and oft times trouble results.
 The Mexican, who later gave his name as Gregorio Munes, returned in Q short while, picked up an automo- bile bumper which sat in a corner near Papo and demanded that the lat ter hand over his gun. Papo prizes lis gun, and refused to surrender whereupon Munes swung the bumper at Papo with all intentions in the world of taking either his head or his gun | It took the officer but moment tC

UNIT PROGRAM WILL
 MAKE LOCAL DEBUT

First showing of the premier Rotha- pfel unit program, unanimously re- garded by screen critics as the most artistic bit of pnotoplay ever offered, will take place at the Columbia theater Thursday of this week. The program will be shown three days, Thursday Friday and Saturday.
 A pre-view of this Rothapfel pro- gram was held in Phoenix last week and the few invited guests declared it to be one of the best offerings they had ever witnessed
 The entire program of six big parts is given over to one theme, "The Pur- suit of Happiness" and every part carries out that theme. One can readily realize the balance attained. the per- feet symmetry of such an idea.
 An overture opens the program, fol- lowed by ''The Wood of Fair Water" which pays an everlasting tribute to the U. S. marine who so nobly fought and died in the pursuit of world hap piness and peace at Belleau woods.
 Then comes His Last Hour" from Massenet's elegy, followed by anS cpl gram that is an innovation in the mo- tion picture world The dramatic fea- ture, False Gods,' follows with the comedy Wild Flowers as the con- cluding number.

COURT DELVES INTO
 DOMESTIC PROBLEMS !. AND OTHER AFFAIRS

Alfonso Valdez was vindicated in Justice Wheeler's court yesterday. He had been arrested on a complaint sworn out by his wife, charging failure to provide. It was brought out that Valdez had been similarly prose- cuted on the complaint of his wife in many jurisdictions-wherev he happened to be working. It was also developed that he was earning S21 a week that he had been turning over SIP a week to his wife but that sum was not sufficient to enable her to live in the style to which she desired to become accustomed.
 It was further shown that of this weekly installment she was paying g a week on railnent she had purchased for herself and that part of it went in weekly installment on s60 brass bedstead The court after featuring the woman briefly on the subject of domestic economy, dismissed the charge against the husband.
 Leslie Vance, similarly charged, came before. the court and said ne was prepared to fight it. He lives at Ray and when he heard that his wife had made such a complaint against him, he hastened to Phoenix to meet it. | Another alleged failure to provide was that of Nick Romero, who said that he had been married five months and at once left for the place out of town where he is working. His wife l declined to accompany him and he l felt that he could not maintain two l households.
 In variation of the monotony of these | proceedings, Glen Porter, a young man living west of the city, was brought in charged with burglarizing the place of 1 business of the Phoenix Metal and Sheet company and stealing an electric fan. Porter was held for examination next Thursday. His bond was fixed at S1,000 which he was unable to fur nish. Bernal Calderon, accused of burglarizing the house of man named De la Terre, was arraigned and held
 for examination next Thursday.

TAKE NJ CHANGES
 ON THIS WEDDING

Spending the night before their mar riage in the city jail is the experience of Manlo Marques and Hattie Ybano, Mexican couple arrested and charged with violation of city ordinance 160.
 When arraigned yesterday afternoon Marques explained he had secured a marriage license and that they were going to be married. The testimony of the police showed he had had the license since last Thursday but had made no use of it up to the time of their arrest Saturday night.
 Judge Thomas decided the best way of being sure that they used the license was to hold them in the city jail over night and then see that they were properly escorted to justice of the peace this morning, where the happy event will take place.
