received yesterday by the investment
department Of the corporation COM
mission to be passed out among the
on the part of the management of
the hotel to spend their two weeks
furlough on the border. providing
Of course they are lucky enough TO

! AS an added inducement to the
prospective boarder in case he or she

cepting the invitation on account of
a fear that things might not be as
quiet as the card states. the card
bears the following inscription printed
under the name OF the hotel, Bullet
proof rooms" The card further
states that Naco has the ideal sum-
ner climate and that the rates of the
hotel are reasonable, notwithstanding
the guarantee of safety offered.
IN again, out again and in again!
Jesus Alconto recently served a
term in the county Jail for manu-
featuring corn liquor. He was re-
leased from Jail a few days ago and
returned again when he was arrested

ernoon by Deputy Shertffs Dewitt,
Blanco and Smith.
The county officers made q day
light raid on a shack in an alley
between Madison and jefferson

VISITORS who were present in the
United States district court of
Arizona yesterday morning to wit
ness the examinations administered
to applicants for final naturalization
papers were generally surprised to
learn how difficult this test proved
to be. In fact it is unlikely that
very large per cent of American citi-
zcns could pass the examination.
For instance. how many citizens
could explain the method of proceed,
ure involved in the returning of votes
to Washington after a presidential
election, and how many could say
definitely why the vice president of
the United States is also president OF
the senate? Questions such as these
were the stumbling blocks which pre-
vented a large number of the appli-
cants for naturalization, who were
examined yesterday, from winning
their final papers.
OF the % who petitioned for admit
tance. only eight were passed. Eight
others were unsuccessful and six
We're granted an extension of time
for further preparation.
Among the successful candidates
was Benjamin r. De Lellis, a native
OF France. who enlisted in the
American army at the entrance of
this country In the war against Ger
many. In the case of De Lellis, as is
also the case wifhaau aliens who
served in the, American army. admit
lance was made very easy. Prac-
tically the only requirements were
the establishment OF De Lellis' moral
character and general fitness as a
citizen.
PEPUBLICAN classified ads get
results! The truth Of this slogan
was brought home to Carl Rusou
when three want ads published in the
Republican served to exonerate him
Of charges brought against him in
Justice Nat McKee's court ycster-
day.
Charles Stevens was responsible FOR
the complaint brought against Rusou
charging him with embezzling a span
Of mules and set of harness. The
plaintiff asserted his property had
been appropriated about May /, 1921.
With copies Of the Arizona Reubli-
can for April ~, % and 30. the de-
fendant proved TO the satisfaction Of
the court that the mules were lost at
that time. The evidence was a series
OF advertisements in the Lost and
Found columns advising that the
mules had been lost and offering a
reward for their return.
SHERIFF w. r. MoHONEY Of Mo
- have, the terror Of bootleggers
and automobile thieves. passed
through the city yesterday with five
of the latter under commitment TO
the peniteniary. Among them was
one man caught in Kingman with a
new Studebaker which he had stolen
in Los Angeles. He attracted the at
tention of the sheriff by trying to
peddle in Kingman lot Of new auto
mobile tools.
The sheriff reasoned that something
must be crooked in the case of n man
who owned such fine car and had to
resort to haIwking tools about. He
took the peddler into custody on sus-
picion and shortly learned by wire
that such an automobile had been
stolen in the California city.
