DISASTER FAILS ON
 BOOZE MARKET WHEN
 18O CASES ARE SEIZED

Disaster, terrible in extreme, has be- fallen the bootleg whiskey market in Phoenix, one from which it will be long time recovering.
 WhiSkey of the one time familiar old Taylor brand and of the back alley market valuation of more than sS0000, will never reach the haunts in Phoenix for which it was intended and for which it was started on its precarious way.
 Instead of resting costly and secure ly in caches in this city. this booze, worth what once was considered a for tune, is in possession of officials at Winslow near which town the capture was made.
 There were two captures. in fact. Ed Sawyer of Winslow, who was in Phoe- nix Thursday on his way to Tucson, brought word of the first. capture. which was regarded as a disaster by many Phoenicians. On his way from the north MT. Sawyer learned of the capture of two Cadillac motor cars by the officials of Mohave county. The cars were heavily laden with whisl6ey. bound for Phoenix The cars together contained 90 cases of Old Taylor. Seeing capture certain. the men in charge of the cars abandoned them and 1 their priceless cargoes and succeeded l in making their escape. The cars and whiskey now are in possession of the officials.
 Two days later the second shipment of 90 cases of whiskey. bound for Phoe- nix as was the first. ran into capture 1 near Winslow. Thees two cars, ont of which was a Cole, also carried % cases of whiskey. Three men convoy
 ing these cars were taken into custody 1 and lodged in jail at Holbrook.
 The 190 cases of whiskey. each con l taining 24 pints. represented a total o 4,320 pints. At a conservative bootlei
 valuation in Phoenix at the presen
 time of s20 pint, this loss in booz
 represents a total of sSs,400.

Nem York,s Fashion Aath0rity

NEW YORK-The summer outfit that does not include at least one taf- feta frock will surely be the exception this year. Though the play Mar tiniquei' at the Eltinge theater has it's scenes laid in 1S40, this dress of Josephine Victor's affords, save for it's length, timely suggestion.
 The skirt, with it's deep foot-flounce, it's straight around hip-flounce and it's diagonal flounce dropping gracefully between them has a very odd little waist atop it that is most attractive. Front and back are two vest-like sec tions that are finished with a cord with just a suggestion of shirring. Tiny sleeves gathered into bands of batiste embroidery are relief from the ster- eotyped straight shoulder sleeve of the present style of short-sleeved dress.
