dress to the bar. Judge Dyer gave ms attention to motions set for hearing \ mum Der of motions were made TOT set tlement of cases. The suit on contract for damages brought by Copper Buttes Mines versus Frank C. Armstrong TOT s40,000, was settled for S10.0O0- The s5,000 action instituted by Rosa Cae- sare against the Pullman Car company was settled for nominal sum. An thony Caesare, a husband of the plaln- tiff, was party to the suit WhlCh grew out of the purchase of a Pull man ticket from Los Angeles to Phoe- nix. It was alleged the ticket was 1s- sued for a wrong date, and the pialn- tiff, in ill-health, was compelled to sit in the day coach. The $15.0Oo dam age suit of Isaac Cvijanovich against the Ray Consolidated Copper company was also settled out of court.
 Most Interest in Hay Case
 After the actions were dismissed the court continued the important demur- rerS in the cases which are of great est interest during the present court term-that of the Tempe merchant who sold the government hay which he is alleged to have misrepreSented in re- Spect to it's grade. Charged with A. J. Peters as defendants, are his son, Yer non Peters, J. N. Jaggers, who was a hay inspector, and Clifford Smith and Paul O. Aepli, who were in Peters em- ploy at the time the alleged sale was made.
 In the Pandolfo case practically every bank in the state is a defendant, the action being brought against the Arizona Bankers association The suit is based on the publication of the sec retarys report of the association, in cluding a resolution with reference to Pandolfo. Pandolfo recently was con- victed in the federal court of having used the mails to defraud. He is the head ofthe- Pan Motor company of Indianapolis.
 Both the million dollar libel suit and the Peters case were set for trial on March g. the day on which the demur rers will be argued.

up to ask her 30 give some testimony
about certain young officer who was
accused of robbery. Darla replied by
denouncing Uritzky for the loss of

to his Office. There, as KalpaschnikoF #

do not understand why people are not

Urltzky was quite overpowered by
this brilliant stroke Of diplomacy, and
Daria followed up her advantage so eff

Mr. Lawrence says, in part Much
has been written about free verse. But
all that can be SAID, first and last, is
that free verse is. or should De, direct
utterance from the instant, whole man.
1t is the soul and the mind and body
surglng at once, nothing left out
They speak all together. There IS
some confusion, some d.scord But
the confusion and the discord only be
long 10 the reality. as noise belongs
to the plunge Of water. 1t IS no use
inventing fancy laws for free verse
no use drawing a melodic line which
all the feet must toe. Free verse toes
no melodic line. no matter what drill

Of the shoulders and & wellbred sr.ils of

band had still In his sinews the might Of

Whether "Mrs. Craddock" Is satire or
tragedy It is little hard to know, Mr..
Maughanl points the story SO finely be-
tween. Perhaps It is both. Certainly,
there Is satire in tho contrast between
her agonized vision of her husbands
death and her grateful acceptance Of it
in scene that is almost realization of
her premonition. And there is a bitter
irony, too, in the defrauding experience
OF her second love affair. But the fl.us-
ira ton Of high and ardent telnpera-
ment, the waste Of capacity for heroic
abandonment, IS perhaps more subtle
ca "a strophe than the ancients knew who
first defined tragedy.
Neurotic, highly pitched, subtle and
