WOMEN TO DISCUSS
.DRESSFOR WORKING
Pointed Comment Expected at
Sessions OF Federated
Clubs.

ST. PAUL, July 2.-The second
annual convention OF the National
Federation OF Business and Profes-
sional Women's Clubs. to be held al
st. Paul, July 21-3o. viii attract
prominent busipess and professional
women from every city because OF the
wide range Of topics which viii come
for discussion before the convention.
Specialists in advertising, insurance,
manufacturing law. medicine. sales
manship, banking and many other No-
cations will present reports on the
opportunities for women In their spe-
cial line OF endeavor
The reports Of such committees as
the legislative. research, nnance anu
vocational will also be intensely In
teresting. as they will touch on many
vital details which must be OF bene-
Mt TO the younger women just enter
ing the commercial field. Among the
topics for discussion will be women
in Chambers OF Commerce" efficiency
Standards in Business Colleges, rhe
College Graduate in Business ana
"Industrial Legislation for Women.
A prominent place on the program
will be given TO clubhouses-how 10
acquire nnance and operate them.
This will be participated In by such
clubs as have already established
successful standard for ciubhouses.
The subject OF proper dress for bus
mess women may arouse some splr-
tied discussion. as business and pro-
fessional women seem to be divideo
into two fairly well organized groups'
one OF which believes that no organi-
zation has a right TO dictate TO an'
business woman on the subject OF her
clothes, the other group believing as
firmly that the federation must BET
the pace in standardizing business
dress for women. The results of dis
cussion will, undoubtedly, bring
pointed comment.

Police Interrupt Impromptu Boxing
 Match Last Night

Fight promoters never staged q fight in Bisbee~that drew such a crowd as did an impromptu combat yesterday evening on the plaza be tween Mrs. T. E. Tucker. landlady oi hotel on Brewery Gulch, and Mrs J. J. Harmon, of Douglas.
 The usual formalities of an intro duction and a gong were dispensed with. The first few rounds were tame. The women met in a clinch and as there was nc referee they were not forced to break As the fight progressed the crowd increased and there were no policemen in sight.
 About the middle of the fourth round Mrs. Harmon declared that if the police were not going to come to take her opponent to Jail, she would do so herself. She got a half-Nelson around Mrs. Fuckers neck with one arm and hold on her hair with the ether and edged toward the police station. Two policemen arrived about this time and assisted the women to jail with the aid of an automobile, Here they deposited $10 bond each for their appearance in police ecourt without giving any explanation as tol the cause of the combat.
 About. 800 spectators were present and the general opinion was that the fight was a good draw.

Sames Apparently ] Certain Of Being
 New County Judge

DOUGLAS. Dec 2S.--A report came out of Phoenix last night to the eff. feet that Governor Campbell will in the near future appoint Albert M. Sames of this city as second judge O the superior court of Cochise county, under the law which provides for {; second judge in counties having a population equal to. that accorded to Cochise county by the 1920 census.
 Today this report was confirmed by those who are supposed to be on the inside of happenings and coming events in connection with the admin istratioA of Governor Campbell.
 This is in accordance with what has been expected since the cam paign closed in the state. Judge Sames' name has been connected with the second judgeship in this county whenever that was possible under the law Two years ago an attempt was made. to have the legis- lature to pass law providing for the second judge here and it was then understood that if the law was enact ed Judge Sames would be the judge. The law failed to pass and so the mat ter rested until the figures of the re cent census was announced which en titles Cochise county to a second judge.
 Judge Sames has resided in Doug las since the very beginning of the city, away back in 1901, he coming here as assistant to s. F. Mcguire who had charge of the sale Of the original townsite. Afterwards he op ened Flaw office here and practiced his profession since with attending success. His friends will be glad tC know that he is to have just recogni ton for his service in the past to his party.
 The appointment of Judge Sames i: expected soon after the beginning o he new year.

ARRE q LOWELL MAN IN ARSON
 WARRANT
Fire Chief Charges Blaze In Garage Started By Alarm
 Clock Fire Machine.

c. I. Shaw. proprietor of the Low ell Motor company agents for Gates
 half-soles for tires, was arrested yes
 terday on a charge of arson. sworn
 to by Frank Galusha, chief of the
 Lowell fire department, which was called to the storeS early yesterday morning to extinguish d fire that was foundSto have started from aniinfernal machine fixed up for the purpose,
 The machine consisted of an alarm clock set to go off at 1:30 o'clock, and so arranged that when the alarm
 started match would be struck on
 a piece of sandpaper and the fire com
 municated by cloths saturated with
 wood alcohol to receptacles contain
 ing gasoline.
 A man returning from worK m the
 mines saw the fire through the win
 dow of the store shortly after it had
 started He turned in an alarm at. the Lowell fire station and the depart 'ment extinguished the blaze before it
 had done any damage and fore the
 machine which had started II had been obliterated.
 Shaw was released on SJ00 ornd and will be given a preliminary hear
 ing in the justice court IL Lowell next Monday morning. His trial will
 be featured by a peculiar cnain of circumstantial evidence.
 Peace officers at Lowell who are working on the case found that at tempts to buy a-certain kind of an alarm clock were made Mo,,day at the Gilman jewelry store at Lowell and the Phelps Dodge store at sbis- bee. and that~ the clock thar formed the basis of the machine was finally purchased at the Racket jewelry store on Brewery Gulch. The pur- chaser drew the attention of those who waited on him by his insistence that the stem winding device of the alarm must turn when the alarm went off. He finally founu sscn a clock, a Gall" clock, in the Racket jewelry store. This clock was put in a "Westclox' box and delivered to him. Both the clock and the box were found in the store where tEc ire. oc- cC. ed The match was fastened to the stem winding device and piece of sandpaper fastened over the back of the clock so that when the alarm went off the head of the match was struck on the sandpaper. The space between the 'sandpaper and the back of the clock was stuffed with satur- ated rags that led to an open can or gasoline.
 When questioned yesterday by Sher- if Mcdonald, Shaw, officers say, said that he purchased the business about five months ago from J. w. Hendry. He said that about ssOO0 worth of in- surance is in effect, and that the stock would invoice for about $3300. The insurance was purchased through Gus Haigler and it became known yesterdax that the insurance company had made some objection to carrying the risk on the ground that it Is too much, and that the Gates Half Sole company holds mortgage of $450O stock on equipment. Haigler said that at the time of the fire the in surance was still in effect.
