OPPORTUNITY SCHOOL
 SAVES TIME, MONEY
Forty-five Hundred Dollars Saved Taxpayers, and Extra Years
 Work for Pupils
(From Sundays Daily)


 Saving of approximately $450O in school costs to Prescott taxpayers was marked by the successful close Friday of the Opportunity school conducted here during the summer for the benefit of grammar school pupils who failed to pass the ex- aminations at the close of the school term last spring
 Forty-five pupils, % of them from the seventh grade and 19 from the eighth, were enabled to make up their work and successfully pass their examinations during the Summer. These pupils will enter the eighth grade and the freshman year of high school when school opens here next month.
 In addition to saving the taxpayers the $1G0 per pupil it would have cost to carry these students through a years school work had they been given no opportunity of re-eXamina- ton, an extra year of work has been saved to the students themselves. This saving of time to the student, Principal Neal D. Moore considers of more value than the monetary saving.
 Opportunity schools are fast com ing into use throughout the country, Principal Moore stated yesterday. In New York city, for instance, there is a complete system of sum- mer schools where students who fail to pass can study for re-eXamina- ton.
 The Prescott Opportunity school classes were taught by MT. Moore and by Miss Pearl Fortson, of the Prescott city school faculty. Miss Fortson had the seventh grade pu- pills. Those who attended the oppor- tunity school and who will enter the high school this fall with their regu- lar class, are:
 Lily Betes, Zona Coleman, Elsie Hicks, Eugenia Jennings, Ida Love, Helen Strom, Wilma Womach, Chas. Bianton, Murl Boren, Frank Bowers, Howard Cornick, IT,, Eloy DeBaca, Billy bier, Wayne Foster, Bennie Grove, Arthur Robinson, IT,, Charles Shaw.

THE PROPOSED SPECIAL LEG
 ISLATIVE SESSION

Revelations-if such they may be called-were made at the recent tax conference at Nogales that the ex- pense of conducting the state gov ernment this year would be about $1,5GC,000 more than last year, and that the tax rate would be much higher than ever before. There was nothing new in this announcement. It was known at the adjournment of the fifth legislature.
 Some of the members of the state legislature and those directing the executive branch of the state govern ment derided those who pleaded with them to be less extravagant in ap- propriating money for the people to pay. One or two of the protestors even were accused of INEBRIA- TON, but, looking backward with unprejudiced eyes, it would seem the accusers themselves were drunk.
 It now is proposed to convene the legislature in special session, in the hope that t can UNDO some of the EXPENSIVE ACTS it was persuad- ed to pass during the regular session. The omnibus highway bill was one of them, and it provided for spend ing something like $1,250,OO0 A number of new jobs were created, some salaries were raised, and many appropriations were made that prob ably could have been avoided. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT AT THIS LATE HOUR TO NULL LEY ANY OF THE LAWS PASSED LAST WINTER. It would COST MONEY for the legis- lators to meet in special session, but it would be well spent were it cer- tain the two houses would take steps to chop down expenses-BUT WILL THEY? There is the likelihood of ADDING to the BURDEN rather than Tightening it.
 Just where the pruning knife could be applied it is DIFFICULT TO SEE. It might slash at the om- nibus road act, although some of the money set aside by that measure ALREADY HAS BEEN AR RANGED FOR DISPOSAL. It must not be forgotten that this 1egis- lature was the one that passed the bill providing for special election next September to decide as to- the removal of the state bond limitation.

MRS. JACODY DIES
 AT YELLOWSTONE
Sister-in-Law of Julius Jacoby Dies Unexpectedly at While En Route
 Home With Husband
CFrom Saturdays Dally)

Julius Jacoby yesterday received word from his brother, Sam Jacoby, that the latter's wife had died unex- pectedly at Yellowstone park, and that the remains were being shipped to Chicago for burial. MT. and Mrs. Jacoby were here just month ago, as the guests of MT. and Mrs. Julius Jacoby. They were here for week during the Frontier celebration, and left Prescott to visit Portland, Vel lowstone park, Seattle, Denver and other points of interest before re- turning to their home in West Ho- boken, N. J.
 The brothers and their families had planned upon going to Germany within two years to visit their rela- tives there, and all were anticipating the trip with great pleasure. Mrs. Jacoby was the picture of health when she was in Prescott. Her brother-in-law, Julius Jacoby, is un- able even to surmise the cause of her sudden death.
 The deceased is survived by her husband and four children, two of whom are married. She was idolized by her husband. His business made it necessary for him to make ire quent trips away from home, and without exception, he always insisted upon his wife accompanying him. The ideal relations that existed be- tween this couple are illustrated by an incident that occurred in Chicago while they were en route to the west Mrs. Jacoby casually admired a diamond pin in a jewellers window. Her husband induced her to go into the store. He purchased the pin for her The price was $1,00O.
 The lack of details of the death, as received by Mir. Jacoby here, is only accounted for by him by the belief that the husband was too grief stricken and heart-broken to relate the circumstances.

HARRY TEMPLE
 INJURED WIEN
 GAS TANK GOES
(From Saturdays Daily)

Harry Temple, garageman, was in jured and windows in Charles C. Riebeling's garage were shattered by the explosion of gas residue in the reservoir tank of the filling station on South Montezuma street yester- day afternoon. Temple, who was taken to the hospital, was said to have been only shaken and bruised by the force of the explosion which took place in the pipe trench in front of the garage. He had breathed into his lungs some of the fumes and complained of discomfort.
 In digging the water pipe trench, workmen for the city had uncovered the gasoline tank, and taking ad vantage of this fact, the garage owner, who is remodeling his prop erty, was preparing to make changes in the filling station. Temple was employed to do some welding on the Dull ldlih, anu Was WOi III lliN pit Precautions had been taken to empty the reservoir of gasoline. All the fuel had been pumped out and water had been run into the tank and itself pumped through.
 Temple lit a match to ignite his welding apparatus, and the gasoline fumes leaking into the air, exploded, according to the theory of those who examined the place. The end of the gasoline tank, which rests in hori- zontal position beneath the sidewalk, was blown out. Temple was hurled against the opposite wall of the trench. The blast, which was heard all over the downtown section, shook three of the upper small windows loose in the garage, and attracted large crowd.
 Temple was removed to the office of the garage and later to the hos pital by Dr. H. T. Southworth.

FINANCES FUR
 FRONTIER DAYS
 ARE IMP PROVED
iFrom Saturdays Dailyl

Otto Orthel, chairman of the fi-
 nance committee of the Frontier days, yesterday admitted that it re-
 quired a little time to accomplish
 some of the detail work of the From tier days. This, despite the fact that
 Orthel in addition to serving on the finance committee, had charge of the tickets and gates, no small task in itself.
 Following an executive session of the Frontier Days association when all accounts were audited, Chairman Charley Raible gently announced to Orthel that it would be his pleasant duty to interview the banks and make the necessary arrangement for sum sufficient to carry on the. associa- tion's liabilities. He'd Aitken, talk ing life as a proverbial golfer gen erally does, merely smiled and said: "Yes, Otto, you can let 'em off a little easier this time" But the deed was finished yesterday. A few old standbys of the "honor guard" af- fixed their signatures and everything is sittin' pretty waiting for the big event in 1922.
 Credit is due the workers of the association this year for the splendid showing which they were able to make despite several reverses with which they had to contend. Starting in 1919 the Frontier days workers faced a deficit represented by new corrals and stock of over $5,000. Year by year this has been wiped out somewhat and with the help of the "Wows," $2,133.6O was paid off. The association this year maintained itself and paid 50 per cent of the re- indebtedness. This organi- zation is unique in that it is a vol lnteer association, all workers giving heir time without remuneration and is in every sense of the word a non profit, civic institution.

 |S DISCHARGED
(From Sundays Daily)


 Trial of Peter Maroon, proprietor of the Grant hotel on a charge of permitting the building to be used for immoral purposes, yesterday end led with dismissal of the jury, which failed to reach a verdict after five hours deliberation. The case was tried in the justice court.
 Testimony for the state was of fered by two witnesses, Deputy Sheriff James Cook, who related the arrest last Sunday night of three men and a woman in room at the Grant hotel, and Mrs. Myrtle Crist the woman arrested by Deputy Sheriff Cook.
 Admission that immoral conduct had occurred in the hotel was fol- lowed when Mrs Crist was called to the stand, by her declaration that Maroon had not been responsible for or implicated in her actions. He had engaged her to work in the hotel as a chambermaid, she said.
 Cross-examnation of Mrs. Crist by Defense Counsel P. w. O'Sulli- van sought to establish that the al legged immoral conduct of the witness while living at the Grant hotel was due to a desire to help husband alleged to be failing in health and needing financial assistance.
