APPEAL ID OBREGON
 FAILS; EX-CAPTA|N
 MUST STAY IN JAIL

Because Gen. Alvaro Obregon, presi- dent elect of Mexico. refused to come to the aid of Jose Medina. alias Manuel Revera. a former captain in the Obre- gon armies. Medina aust repine in the county jail while awaiting trial in the superior court, instead of gaining his freedom by bail. as he had hoped when he appealed to his former commander in-chief for help. Medina, under the alias of Revera. is charged with two counts-one of forgery and the other burglary-and was held to answer to the superior court Saturday afternoon by Justice Mckee after hearing of the cases. His bond was fixed at S20OO in the first charge and 5000 in the second. but Medina failed to make the grade, and went to jail.
 Medina was arrested October by Officer Grove of the police force as the man wanted for entering the office of the Foundation company at the Gil- lespie dam October l and taking S4 uncalled for pay chec ks of Mexicans. When arrested Medina had about 75 of the missing checks in his possession, | 1t is said One of the checks, amount mig to $S9.S3, belonging to a man named Gus Maas. Medina is alleged to have cashed at the store of Nat Kohn, securing some merchandise and the balance in money. He is charged with | forging the indorsement of Maas to | the check.
 Alter his arraignment early last week Medina sent a message to Obre- l gon, who was attending the Interna- tional exposition at Fl Paso. to bail him out. The general wired back stat ling that he regretted the difficulty his i former captain was in, but that he could not help him.
 According to the testimony of Mar garita Duarte and Julian Duarte. Me dina employed them to drive him tc the Gillespie dam on the night of Octo- Der 1 for $15. They said he was gone a short time after they arrived at tho construction camp, and they drove him back to Phoenix. arriving here abou | ' o'clock the next morning. Medina they said. told them he was going tC a certain place to get some money tha' a friend owed to him and seemed ir
 a hurry to get back.
 Medina. under the name of Revera I w. J. O'Neil of the Foundation com.
 pany said, was employed by them a:
 janitor in the office there and had {
 key to the place. On Thursday, Sep.
 tember 30. he said Revera asked for
 few days off saying that he was com.
 mig to Phoenix to get married. Or
 Friday, O'Neil said, the checks tha
 were being held for Mexicans who hat
 failed to call for them were stolen
 They amounted to about $3500, he said
 Officer Grove told of making the ar rest and finding Medina in a hous back of a poolroom on South Firtl street between Madison and Jackson
 streets Saturday night. October 2 off cer Grove said that Medina had in hi possession the goods bought at Kohn' store with one of the checks.

NEGRO MILLIONAIRE DIES

WEST COLUMBIA, Texas.-Charles Brown, who died here recently. was probably the wealthiest negro, and one of the most unostentatious, in the world. He was 90 years old. and his fortune is estimated at s2.000,000. His property included $500 acres of land, much of it in the oil fields and under lease. He was also successful farmer.
 Browns manner of living did not change as his fortune grew. and he lived quietly. A few days before his death he was seen driving a farm wagon. He leaves several children.

BEGINS PREPARING
 STOVES FUR WINTER

As a gentle reminder to the passer- by that summer is over. Sim Byers, custodian ot the court house, has laid aside his custodian clothes for the time and has entered the field of weather prophets by hauling out the Is rusty and time-worn stoves used for heating the court house rooms and lining them up along the west side of the sheriffs office. Each of the stoves is a warn
 ing to the passing public that winter is about to descend upon Phoenix.
 Sim says that he really didn't mean

to be a weather prophet and declares that he brought the stoves out of their summer hiding to put a nice shiny coat of stove black on them. He added he wanted to install them now so that he could get revenge on the first thin- blooded habitue of the court house that put in a kick about being cold. Sim VOWS that he will smoke him out with the fragrant fumes of burnt stove polish.

Kid Says He'll
Stick This Time

LOS ANGELES, April 21.--"Marriage

and love- And I'm signed up for a

Thus from the source OF his seventh
bout with ''the little bare boy with the
bow and arrow" Kid Mccoy. former
famous boxer, gave voice to that bit of
wisdom today in the presence of Mrs.
Norman Selby VII, nee Carmen Browder,
classic dancer, who Is now the KID
latest bride to bear his unprofessional
name.
The Kids new wife is a petite blond.
She is 10 summers young and thinks
the Kid is the handsomest man in NOV
ing pictures"
Both are sure this pact is everlasting
and the Kid grows vOluble over II.
'If experience is the best teacher, then
I've taken post graduate course" said
he.
six courses in one lesson ought to
make the seventh perfect.

HoDamOn0S CoMoore

A race of ballplayers-that would be
the ideal for organized baseball owners.
The faster the crop grows the greater
VIII be the harvest for the big top man
ayers.
And the major leagues have not neg
lccted that great institution Of noise and
enthusiasm-the future ball players OF
tomorrow-the great American boy.
The joint rules committee has formally
recognized boys under 10 as future
source of supply for the professional
rcrks by provision for a smaller diamond
and a lighter ball for the youngsters.
New measurements for the boys dia-
lnond are recommended to be 50 feet be-
tween bases instead Of 90 feet; the pitch
ing mound to be 80 feet from home base,
instead of 90 feet 9 inches, and tina bah
to weight four and one-half ounces, In
stead of five aud one-quarter.
Copies of these regulations, passed by
the major league committee, will be cent
t. mayors and playground directors OF
American cities wl.h n request that the
suggestions for boys'-sszed diamond and
baseball be adopted.
If baseball stars Of the future are to
past a suitable diamond, ball and bat
for them to work with are essential &c
their age and strength limits.
regulation ball for Walter johnson
and Grover Alexander is all right, but
too heavy for q boy OF ii years. The
throw from the rubber to the plate ia
too far also.
The 120-foot throw from home to sec
ond base is too long for a boy under 10
All the throws across the regulation dia-
mond are beyond the strength Of a grow
! ing youngster.
A boy can't hit a regulation baseball
/ past a shortstop 40 feet from the plate
/ That distance is far enough away TO be
an outfeli for a boys diamond.
With the big league officials recogniz-
ing the millions OF American boys, they
will warm TO the game as never before

Plenty of Action Shown
in Movies of Title Mat

Lovers of action Will see plenty OF it
in the motion pictures Of the Stecher-
Caddock worlds championship wrestling
match which will be shown at the Lyric
theater next week.
The bout was one Of the fastest in mat
annals and was won by Stecher only after
every trick and artifice In the repertoire
of the willy Caddock had been blocked by
the Iowa farmer boy.
Interest in wrestling, apparently on the
wane since the death OF Frank Gotch,
has revived tremendously during the
past year.
The Stecher- Caddock bout was wit
messed by the largest crowd that ever
attended a wrestling match in this coun-
try.
In all probability Stecher will visit
Indianapolis in person with the aggrega-
ton of all star athletes who will accom-
pany Georges Carpenter on his tour OF
the country.
