DOES IKE EARTH
 LOSE HIS BOOZE

A collection of beverages which would have made old Bacchus smile with delight has just been removed from the vault in the Federal build- ing at Albuquerque, where it has been stored since summer, and transferred to the offices of the owners lawyer, it having been decided by the court that the property could not be confiscated according to law, the tax upon it hav- ing been paid.
 This liquor was confiscated last summer from the Franceschinis, who were vending it without the necessary license. Later they were ordered de- ported to Italy and started on their journey, but Mrs. Franceschini was all lowed to return. She is now privil- eged to receive her property again, which is valued at $2,0OO.0O.
 Won vivants would weep at the sight. One hundred and fifty pints of Sunnybrook, two dozen pints of Mum's extra dry champagne, twenty gallons of wine, Curacao, a miscellan- eous assortment of brandies, black berry, apple, peach, etc, and four barrels of beer are included in what was "cellar fit for the gods"

TO PUT THROUGH SAN
 CARLOS DAM PROJECT

To bring the San Carlos dam pro ject to the attention of the govern ment as one of the first units of con struction after the enactment of the $250 100000 reclamation bill, com mittee of six representatives of the San Carlos Dam association of Pinal county, and citizens committee of Phoenx chamber of commerce met in Phoenix. It was suggested that the first step toward the furthering of the project would be report on it by en- gineers of the United States reclama- tion service, being useful data gather ed in the preparation of previous re- ports, to include the depth of the pro- posed dam, the area which probably would be served with water and other essential information.
 It was pointed out that report showing facts and figures on the pro posed dam and reservoir was needed. The joint committee also considered the matter of securing funds for the preparation of the report.
 Governor Campbell and Sims Ely, Arizona executive committeeman of the Western States Reclamation as- sociation, left last week for Denver to attend the conference of western governors on reclamation and will then go to Washington and attend the conference with members of congress on the $250,000,000 appropriation bill.

Wife Always Found
 AMnities in His Palm.

PITTSBURGH, PA. "You can't have peace in your family when your wife imagines she can delve into your past by the way of your palm," de- clared Harry c. Reynolds, to Judge Wasson in the criminal court. He was on trial for assaulting his wife, Olga.
 Frequently" he said, q let my wife read my palms, and it was a sure sign of an approaching storm. She never failed to find an affinity there, sometimes blonde, again a brunette. Generally they were young and the descriptions frequently fitted women l knew.
 "If 1 refused to permit her to read my palm, then 1 was badgered until I nearly went wild. She would charge me with being afraid of what my palm would tell,' and the upshot of it all was that we were continually bick-, ering and quarreling. We can't get along while she attends spiritualistic meetings and reads palms. You can't beat that combination, and Pm done trying"
 When the court learned Reynolds had sued for divorce he discharged him.

J. PLUvIUS ON DESERT SPREE
 IN 1919; RAINFALL DOUBLED

Sunny Arizona was more than usu- ally well watered during the year 1919. For the 43-year period ending in 1919 the average rainfall for this part of Arizona has been 1062 inches per year. But during 1919 old Jupi- ter Pluvius sprinkled the deserts around about with lavish hand, Ari- zona being blessed with 1901 inches of precipitation. This puts Arizona in the same class with the western part of the Dakotas and some of the other states of the union that are gen erally considered regular farming states. During December, however, Arizona only got half her normal De- cember rainfall, there being GA Inch as compared with 1.16 inches normal. In November there was 3.13 inches of rain, or almost four times the normal November rainfall. Three days before Christmas was the warmest day of the month, the mercury climbing to 77 de- grees, Fahrenheit, and three days af- ter the coldest day, when the ther- mometer registered 28 degrees, giving Douglasites taste of real weather.- Douglas International.

"Later life guards called him aside, and he went to dressing room. met him later outside the park and he said the guards told him to leave the pool, be- cause they said we've men here who are paid to do that work, and you butted in.' The rescuer refused t1 give his nanie."

 Parisian tailors, aided by designers of feminine things, have gone way back to 1880 and thereabout for the startling new styles now made up into models for exhibition in the smart shops for men.
 These new styles will be success ful," Jules Muelles, vice president of the tailors' union, sartorial artist, said. "There will be cloak about as long as the ordinary claw hammer coat. Around the ankles of the trous- CTS there will be a shirred border.

POSTPONE MOHAvE
 ROAD BOND ELECTION

The Mohave county election on road and hospital bonds scheduled to take place February has been postponed by the supervisors to April 6.
 The reason for this is that the nec- essary data could not be got tengether in time by the highway commission. The commission is to make report on the manner in which the money de- rived from the sale of the road bonds will be spent and this together with the map to be drawn up by the coun- ty engineer, takes considerable time for consideration.

TWO CATTLE RUSTLERS
 JUMP THEIR BONDS

Sylvester Taylor and Rufus Gibbs, who were arrested at Hay Hollow, near Woodruff, for cattle stealing, and who were placed under $500 bonds each to appear before Justice Easley, at Holbrook, failed to make their ap- pearance and the bonds were declared forfeited. They left each a wife and two children, whom it is said will go to their homes in Oklahoma. No trace has been found of the two men, who evidently have sought pastures new. The heifer said to be stolen belonged to Demetrio Sandoval.

STATUE TOU.S S. MARINES |
NOT TO Be ERECTED HERE (

The statue, ''Crusading for Right"
designed for the u. S. marines by the
French sculptor, Raphael Peyre, will
not be erected in this city, for the reason
that the commission of fine arts does not
consider it worthy of the subject or
suitable for erection in one of the parks
of the District.
Cen Barnett. commandant of the Ma
rine Corps, has been so informed by
Charles Moore. chairman of the fine
arts commission. In his letter Mr..
Moore said that the commission felt
that sculptor Peyre's statue would not
be an adornment to the city of Wash
ineton." and that the service OF the
Marine Corps is deserving of better
recognition than is given by this statue.
For those reasons the commission. he
said. could not advise Congress to set
2part a space for it in one of the parks
of the District.
If is understood that Mr.. PcyTe was
nromised $4,000 francs for his statue
and that a number of officers and en-
listed men of the Marine Corps have
contributed to a fund for that purpose.
II is said also, that the statue probably
will be erected in Belleau woods or
some other battlefield i'll France where
tho L. S. marines covered themselves
with glory.
