1000 LABOR MEN AT
 WORK IN GOODYEAR

It was learned that 1000 workmen, mostly Mexicans, have been given em- ployment in the fields at Goodyear, chopping cotton and doing other ranch work on the 80,000 acre tract of the company.
 Several weeks ago it was decided to change the name of the Southwest Cotton Co.,, to that of the Valley Farms X Investment Co.,, and this change has just been completed. It was also learned that the recent visit of the monied men from the coast was for the purpose of aiding in the finan- cing of the new company and that they have consented to do so.
 It is also unofficially reported that the Goodyear tract will be cut up into ranches and sold to farmers, and that next fall special trains will be run to Arizona from the east composed of homeseekers and that this land will be sold on basis of S250 an acre on longtime terms. This land is five miles south of Chandler and was sold to the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.,, several years ago by Dr. Chandler who represented the Chandler and Bartlett-Heard interests in the deal.

NEVIS OF INTEREST GATHERED
 HERE AND THERE IN THE STATE
TEACHER ACCUSED
 OF BURNING CHILD

Clemenceau and Cottonwood have been vastly excited the last few days over the case of Miss Katherine De- Maine, teacher in the Clemenceau schools, who was alleged to have pun ished with undue cruelty Florence Baker, six-year-old daughter of Jack Baker, Miss DeMaine pleaded guilty in the court of Justice D. L. Robinson, paid fine of $25, resigned her posi- tion and left for her home in Santa Ana, California.
 According to information gathered by the Verde Copper News, the little girl had got into the habit of pilfer- ing small articles and had been pun ished several times. A few weeks ago Miss DeMaine, with the idea of fright ening her, told her that the next time she stole she would burn her hand so that she could not take hold of any thing.
 Last Thursday morning Miss De- Maine discovered that the little Baker child had stolen some candy from the lunch box of another pupil at the school. She first whipped the girl with stick, washed her mouth out with liquid soap and then passed lighted match under the fingers of one hand. Miss DeMaine denied any intention of doing more than frightening the child but some chocolate adhering to the fingers caught fire.

 BIG HAUL OF BONDS

Burglars entered the home of MT. and Mrs. A. R. Hughes Saturday night and got away with S1400 in Liberty bonds and an $500 certificate of de- posit on the Arizona State Bank of this city. The burglars evidently en- tered the home using skeleton key and ransacking the house found the bonds and certificate in a trunk. Mir. Hughes had made application some time ago to the Arizona State Bank for safety deposit box bat as the bank had none vacant he had been waiting to obtain one and was on the waiting list at the bank.
 A reward of $100 has been offered for the recovery of the bonds. Two of the bonds were registered and the balance of the Victory 4%s, Fourth 4hs, Third 4As and Second Convert ibles 4hs were not registered.

1000 LABOR MEN AT MARRIAGE ISSUE BEFORE
 ARIZONA SUPREME COURT

Whether a marriage contracted out side of Arizona when one of the par ties has secured divorce in Arizona less than year previous to the cere- mony is valid or not was the question argued before the state supreme court today.
 This is the first time the state su- preme court ever has been called on to determine this question and its de- cision will affect many persons who have secured divorces in Arizona and then been married in nearby states before a year had expired from the time they received their decrees.
 The question was brought before the supreme court by Mrs. Annie Craw- ford Horton, who appealed from the decision of Judge Frank H. Lyman.
 Judge Lyman granted the petition of L. J. Horton for annulment of his marriage to Mrs. Horton on the ground that they were married before Mrs. Horton's divorce decree had been effective year before. The Horton's were married in Deming, N. M. Judge Lyman held that such marriage was a violation of the law, which says that divorced person shall not marry for a year within the state"

OTIS J. BAUGHN MAY BE
 MADE FEDERAL JUDGE

A new lumor springing to life out at the capitol connects the name of Judge Otis J. Baugi1n with the ap- pointment of judge for the nearly newly created second Arizona district of the United States district court.
 Judge Baughn, who is now serving his second term as judge of the super for court of Pinal county, appears to have the necessary ingredients of ac- ceptable timber for the federal judge ship. He is known as a progressive in his party with just enough conser- vatism to temper him to the taste of those who will have much to say in directing the appointment of the new judge It is said that he played a prominent part in the work of elect ing Senator Cameron. He is also said to be close friend of both H. H. Heirer, Superior newspaper man who handled the senator's primary cam paign in Pinal county, and Judge Oberfeld, who stands well in the af- feetions of the present republican or

JEROME MEXICAN
 IS PRONOUNCED
 LEPER BY DOCTORS

Alfonso Camaega, a Mexican who came here IS months ago from Ajo, was pronounced leper by local phy- sicians, and today was put under guard to isolate him from other per sons. His two brothers, who had been living with him here, disappeared as soon as the nature of Camaega's ill., ness was determined.
 After examination by local phy- sician Camaega was taken before the county medical society at Prescott to have his disease diagnosed. Physi- clans said that microscopic tests re- vealed the presence of leprosy bacilli in great numbers. Both state and federal health officers have been noti- fled.
 Local physicians said they believed there was little dahger of spread of the disease.

COUNTY BOUNDARY DISPUTE
 IS TO BE TAKEN TO COURTS

Guy F. Vernon, chairman of the Maricopa county board of supervisors, yesterday announced that the county attorney, P. E. L. Shepherd, would be asked to bring action in the superior court to have the county line between Yavapai and Maricopa counties re- located in accordance with the report submitted by O. c. Tompson, an en- gineer in the employ of the boa1d.
 Mr. Thompson reported that the line was one and one-eighth miles south of its correct location. If the supreme court agrees with Mir. Thompson's opinion, Yavapai will lose and Mari copa will gain a strip of land 331a miles by 11s miles wide. In this strip is railroad property assessed for pur- poses of taxation at S250,00O and several mining properties also are said to be located in the strip.

FOREST FIRES FOLK GIVEN POWER TO
 ACQUISITION CAR

Acquisition by any supervisor of the United States forestry service of an automobile to carry men to forest to fight fire hereafter will constitute sufficient authority for car owner to carry passengers for hire, according to general order issued by the state corporation commission.
 The law provides that no corpora ton, firm, association or individual shall operate an automobile, jitney, bus, stage, auto stage, etc., without permission from the state, such per mission to be given by the state cor poration commission.
 United State foresters have com plained to the commission that this law handicapped them in fighting for est fires in regions where no stage lines or service cars have been author ized to operate. Private car owners have been unwilling to carry the fire fighters, they said, because they could receive no pay for their work.
