Conferences with political leaders with a view to the formation of a new Spanish cabinet to succeed that Of Premier Allend desalazar. which re- signed yesterday, were begun here today by Antonio Maura, former pre- mier, who has been asked by the king to head the government In po- litica1 circles belief was expressed that Senor Maura would be success ful in gaining the support necessary to form his ministry.
 Demands that Spain crush the Moorish rebellion in Morocco are made by influential newspapers here. Ell Diario Universal declares rapid action in Africa is necessary, as the government is at present maintaining 100000 men and spending two billion pesetaS year in carrying out its pol icy of friendly colonization.
 In m editorial published by Ell De- bate, General Burguete declares the war in Morocco is not military, but a political struggle.
 Tho government has published a declaration thanking the citizens of various American republics who de- clared their wish to come to Spain to participate in the fighting. Cuba has offered to form a volunteer reg iment, Argentina has sent 65 volun- teerS to the foreign legion, and the Spanish embassy in London has re- ceived offers from Englishmen to form a contingent which will enter the fighting. Many Mexicans and residents of Rio Janeiro also have volunteered.

though badly exhausted, the deer put up a stiff fight before he was pulled on board. It took all the men aboard the boat a full ten minutes before the task was accomplished.
 Arriving at the dock with the prize, the skipper and his outfit were met DIV game wardens, who took charge of the prisoner, Another fight took place when Warden Beach tried to induce the deer to take a seat in the tonneau of his automobile. He was firmly subdued. after his feet had heen securely tied. At the ZOO he wa.s pronounced one of the finest specimens ever seen there.

BRIDGE NAILS KEEP
 30BbINC UP TO PRICK TIRES

Chicago, Aug. 12-There is a great magnetism about Evanston, H., fash ionable suburb of Chicago. So great is its magnetism that it threatens to take the clapboards off its houses and tires of its automobiles and to make if the center of scientific research, to say nothing of a market for hard ware.
 Street Commissioner Brown, of Evanston, recently learned of this Phenomenal quality while sitting at his desk
 He answered the telephone to hear an irate voice demand.
 tI want somebody sent here to take care of these nails"
 Mr. Brown informed the caller that he was talking to the Street Commis- sioner's office, not to a beauty parlor, but the voice kept on:
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-08-12

Pm down on the Central street bridge and the nails are sticking out all over it. I have four pounds of spikes in my tires
 Then call after call. MT. Brown had no rest From all points along the towns sanitary canal came new stories of the strange eruption of nails A street inspector was sent out with a sledge hammer to take care of the nails.
 'I can't make it out" he reported back to the chief. '.At first I thought the heat caused the nail explosions by expanding the planking in the bridges. Then it seemed quite likely that the owls, starving to death be- cause of the recent failure of the owl food crop in these parts, have taken to pulling the nails.
 "Of course it may be a magnetic storm-or maybe the automobiles shake them out in passing over the bridges.''
 S. Evanston is debating the advisa- bility of sending for an electrician, a bird catcher or a carload of bolts.

Resi- dents of Mammoth. where park head quarters are located. apeiled Bill by teaching him to eat from their hands, From a pet he became a pest, So tame was he after a seaaen or two that he no longer joined his brothers and sisters in their wanderings about Yellowstone and became an euteast.
 Also his tastes degeneFated. They became almost geat-fi1se, The day came when no laundry hanging from the backyard elotheSiine was safe from his appetite. His special taste was for little siIken dainties. So they locked Bill up in a corral and there he has remained.

ture in which Bryant Washburn Will
be seen at the Colonial theatre this
and tonight. 1t is the big
feature of an all satisfying program
that will appeal to everyone.
Washburn appears as Carver En-
dicott, a rather too precise young
man who tires his fiancee with his
"pepless" love-making. In despera-
ton she ANNOUNCES her engagement
to his father, a gay widower.
Carver decides that the only way
to end the match is to disgrace the
family so the girl won't dare marry
into it. He tries various sorts of
''disgraceful work." even to accept
ing a job as buss boy in a restaurant,
only to find that instead of being
thought less of, the newspapers made
great capital of his example to the
pampcred and lazy workingman."
OF course, everything comes out
all right after q series of typically
Washburnian situations, replete with
humor The turn Of the story is
novel and the whole production is
most eXcellently cast Ann May is
the leading woman.
But this isn't the only good thing
on the Colonial program. There are

Fatty Arbuckle appears, 1.-The Life

he has ever done. That, naturally, is

written by Irwin S. Cobb, who is

it proves all Of that. AS Lawyer
