BILL SPEAR VISITS TUCSON.

J. w. [Billy] Spear, veteran
editor of the Arizona Republi-
can, is enjoying the Southern
Arizona trip of the Arizona In
dustrial Congress directors more
than any other member of the
party, says The Star.
For 81 years Spears pens and
typewriters recorded the pro-
gress and development of the
state and not a small amount of
Arizona's encouragement and OPP
timism that were spread through
Arizona from the same pens and
typewriters.
Phoenix was a town of about
1000 or 5000 the first time
saw it," said Spear last night.
Meal tickets were the principal
medium of exchange. And that
was lucky for those who were in
the newspaper game then, for a
newspaper was not only dead
broke but denied credit. But
we always had enough meal
tickets to eat on and we publish
ed regular, even though we
sometimes had to run the same
news for two or three weeks.
Spear worked for a time on
the old Arizona Star rs years
ago
1 never thought, in those
days, that Tucson would ever
grow to be such a city as it is
now" he mused.
In point or continuous service
with one paper, Spear is the
dean of all Arizona newspaper
men. He first started with the
Republican 32 years ago. and,
but for two brief periods on
other papers, has been with the
capital city paper continuously.

NO CHANGE IN COPPER STATUS

Douglas, Feb. 18.-J. S. Doug
las retul ned to Douglas yester-
day after an absence of two
weeks. He left here with Off
Gals of the Ell Paso and South
western railroad, accompanying
them by train to Tucson.
Speaking of the Tucson, Phoe-
nix and Tidewater railroad this
morning Mr.. Douglas said that
the enterprise was progressing,
though there had been delays in
regard to financing the PROPOSE
ton because of obstacles arising
which were not visible at the
time Phoenix granted fran
chise and right-of way. How.
ever, Mr.. Douglas emphasized
the fact that no serious problems
had arisen which would result
in interfering with the carrying
out of the original plans for
building the railroad.
Asked about the copper situa-
ton Mr.. Douglas said there had
been no material change in con-
ditions affecting the copper
market during the past few
months. Price of copper re.
mains below the figure required
for the profitable production of
red metal. The United Verde
Extension is producing copper
now at about the same rate as
during the period since the war
and has sold it's product as far
ahead as Eext May. He thinks
that there will be no early re-
vival in the price of copper. He
said the annual meeting of the
United Verde Extension would
be held in New York on Febru-
airy 10 when the annual report
would be made and provided the
stockholders.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the accu-
INFLATED impurities, commonly called
uric acid deposits, were dissolved in
the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and f.
nally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism from
his system.
He freely gave his discovery. which
he called Allenrhu. to others who took
it, with what might be called marvel
GUS success. After years of urging he
decided to let sufferers everywhere
know about his discovery through the
newspapers. He has therefore instruc-
ted druggists everywhere to dispense
Allenrhu with the understanding that
if sthe first pint bottle does not show
the way to complete recovery he will
gladly return your money without COM
ment. Orange Drug Co. can supply
you.

MIRACLE GIRL CAN
NOW HEAR AND SEE
Scientists Are Astounded by
Case of Willeta Higgins.

GAINESVILLE, Wis.-Willeta Higgins,
the deaf and blind girl who could read
a newspaper by touch and distinguish
colors by smell, has been cured. Her
hearing in one ear is % per cent nor
NAL and in the other ear 40 per cent
normal, and her power of seeing is 50
per cent normal. Willetn Is eighteen
years old.
"Faith Cured Me-"
Faith in God cured me, nothing
else" explained the young girl when a
number of noted physicians called at
her home, ear GAINESVILLE, Wis, to
permit the girl to prove her cure and
also to prove that she retains the Won
derful powers Of touch and smell. The
physicians, after a careful examina-
ton, announced that she is virtually
cured.
Miss Higgins has been partly blind
and deaf since she was born. At times
her condition would improve, and then
soon 1t would decline until she was al
most totally blind and deaf. Now,
however, her senses of hearing and
smelling eem to be growing stronger
steadily.
Miss Higgins was called a faker by
many medical men and scientists when
she first declared that she could read
with her finger tips and see with her
nose. To prove that she had not lied,
the girl underwent some of the most
rigid examinations science could ar
range.
Given a necktie in which the colors
were so blended that they would con-
fuse a person with normal sight, the
girl named the colors without hesita-
ton and without a mistake. A heavy
~blindfold was fastened over her eyes
during the test.
"Read" Newspaper.
By passing her fingers over the
pages she read a newspaper without a
single mistake. A single hair was
placed under five sheets of fairly
heavy paper. Miss Higgins passed
her fingers over the paper and pointed
out the exact location of the hair.
The remarkable cure of the young
woman has caused physicians who
made no comments on her powers of
touch and smell to come to her sup
port. They have declared that the
scientists who called the girl a faker
formed a snap judgment. They are
sure that Willeta is cured.

ALL-STARfCARD
 FRIDAY NIGHT
Big Athletic Program Booked For Athletic Club This
 Week

The sports program at the Birming- ham Athletic club, booked for Friday night, has all the ingredients to make 1t an all-star card. In the first place, officials of the B. A. c. feel that in Young Jack Dillon they are bringing to Birmingham a man who possesses the punch to knock Red Herring as cold as $40 worth of Eskimo Pie. In the second place, Red Wilson, prodigal son, comes back to cauliflower alley with the assertion that just as soon as he disposes of Spark Plug or Bogey Saab that he's going to show the Bir- mingham fans that he is still master of Jimmy McGinty. Wilson will prob ably meet Saab Monday night, though Spark Plug may be sent against him instead.
 And, as one gets down to the third place, one finds that the humdingingest wrestling match booked for Birming- ham in a half year has been placed on the Friday night menu. The old favo- rites, Thomas Lacey and Homer Smiles, will do some of the best little contor- tions in the mat game today, including the ear-wiggle and the collar-bone cud- dle. Tom and Homer are the best wrestlers in the state and probably the peer of any two mat men in the south. Friday nights winner will get to show his stuff in the national amateur carried abroad to compete with the foreign beef artists as representatives of the American Olympic team.
 With three such attractions and a number of short bouts between the pre- liminary boys, 1t would seem that the Friday night offering will present the largest number of thrills local fans

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Jan. Exchanges that boxing in America Is dominated by a powerful combine, consisting of Tex Rickard, John RinF'ing, the circus king, and Sports Alliance, and as long as this combination fastens it's grip on the sport few championship bouts ever will be staged outside New York were made by members of the session here today.
 E. A. McAuley, Michigan boxing com- missioner, has been leading the oppo- sition to the appointment of William Muldoon, former New York >~boxing commissioner, as dictator of boxing. The Detroit delegate charged MT. Null doom alone stood in the way of New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts joining the National Boxing associa- tion. MT. McAuley also charged the Rickard- Ringing faction with having sent paid agents to Shelby to ridicule and discredit the Dempsey Gjbbons fight, because they didn't want to see a worlds championship fight held out side of New York.
 "So long as Rickard and Ringing control things in New York, we of the rest of the United States cannot hope to stage a championship bout" MT. Mo Auley said. "They have a corner on real talent" he continued, because they have a corner oR the population. do not exactly blame the fighters, because they are fighting for a living and naturally go where the money is. But I think the whole thing is basic ally wrong"

Lineuiile Fiue Strong

LINEVILLE, Ala, Jan. 22-(Speclal.) The State Agricultural school at Linevillc has the best basketball team of it's history, as indicated by the pace they are setting in games won, and should finish the season with stand ing among the best in the state.
 Ray, captain and center, has been going at a rapid rate, especially in con- trolling the tipoff. His passing and shooting have been the cause of much worry to the teams who have faced him. Dennman and Ingram, who played together on strong junior high team last year, are making Lineville the best pair of forwards that ever rep resented the school. Their shooting has been a feature during the season. Payne, Tendon and Mitchell have dis played a brand of ball at guard that held all opponents to a low score. Hen don is especially good under the bas- ket, while Payne and Mitchell are wonderful as running guards. Jones is a splendid relief guard.
 Lineville opened the season with a bad trip, playing Pike Road, Sidney Lanier and Wetumpka, defeating Pike Road 26 to 6 and Wetumpka 20 to G., while they lost to Sidney Lanier 30 to 13. The Lineville clan added two more victories last week by defeating the agricultural school at Sylacauga, 2f to II, and Mumford High IS to 16,
