FLIES WHICH KILL
PESTS ARE SOUGHT
Smithsonian Scientist Goes
to Guatemala to Obtain
New Parasites.

| Because not all kinds of flies de-
serve to be swatted, an entomoloeist

economic need which constantly

| 1t is an economic need because the
creatures which the flies destroy in
clude gra shoppers, beetles and
caterpillars. all of which are de-
structive to crops. For instance,
Mexico has in recent years been

! Aldrich at the Smithsonian lnstitu-
ton two boxes fun of flies which
laid naggots in these grasshoppers.

and thus helped 10 destroy them.
Specimens Are insufficient.
The shipper in Mexico wished the

complete nor adequately worked up
the institution could not do this IS

wished This is only one of many
cases in which the museum has been
called upon 70 identity parasitic flies

WHAT MY NE|CHBOR SAYS
Is of Interest to Seward Folks.

When one has had the misfortune, to suffer from backache, headaches, dizziness, urinary disorders and other kidney ills-and has found relief from all this sickness and suffering, that persons advice is of untold value to friends and neighbors. The following case is only one of many thousands. Who could ask for a better exemple?
 Mrs. R. V. Rowe, Box 6S3, Juneau, Alaska, says: q was in bad shape from kidney complaint. l had terri ble pains in my back. Morning l could hardly move and it took some time to straighten my back. I tired easily and didn't feel like doing my housework. was nervous and couldn't sit still at times. I read about Doan's Pills and after using three boxes felt like myself again."
 Price 60c, at all dealers Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Pills-the same that Mrs. Rowe had. Foster Milburn Co.,, Mfrs, Buffalo. N. Y. adv.

VOLUNTEERS WANTED TOMORROW MORNING
 AT THE BALL GROUNDS
WHAT IS A TOWN WITHOUT A BALL CLUB? "DEAD," IS THE
 AVERAGE REPLY

The onslaught on the baseball field will be made beginning at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and all players and others interested are asked to come out to the field in their old clothes and armed with shovel The idea Is that owing to the expense of put ting the grounds in shape for the com ing ball season the s. A. C. organiza- tion cannot bear the heavy expendi- ture which, it has been estimated, would cost we'll over s1,0OO. A few public spirited citizens, however, can work wonders in a few hours, suffi- cient anyway, for preliminary prepar- ations.
 Tom Dyer, and corps of assistants, will be in charge of activities Gangs will be detailed to certain sections of the field, armed with picks and shov- els while others will be sent with the motor trucks loading and hauling gra- vel and dirt. There will be at least thirty members of the athletic club on hand and with this number suple- mented with few fans, Seward will be able soon to boast of a splendid ball diamond, which in itself, is an as- set to any town or city.
 The only thing which will put the damper on the plans related will be weather conditions. If today's wealth CT continues, alternating snow and rain-the last furry of winter-it will be useless to show up. However, if conditions are okeh, show up; on the other hand if it is disagreeable weath- CT, turn over and take a good snooze.

THE CHORUS LADY" IDEAL
 PICTURE FOR LEADING LADY

In choosing for red-headed Margaret Livingston such story as The Cho- rus Lady," Regal Pictures felt that they were giving the young player a story particularly fitted to her per sonality.
 "The Chorus Lady, which comes to the Liberty theater tonight, is adapted by Bradley King from the James Forbes play of the same name. It deals with the life of an Irish show girl. It's locale alternates between the race track and the stage.
 Pat O'Brien, played by Margaret Livingston, is happy-go-luck beauty, full of fun and fight. Virginia Lee Corbin plays the little sister for whom Pat sacrifices much.
 There is fast action in "The Chorus Lady" It is natural story. Pat is no angel. She is slang, hot tempered, and likes her revenge @. but withal she is most lovable. In other words, her virtues overbalance her faults and make us forget them.
 In the scenes where Pat is dressed just the way she wants to be, she is a most gorgeous creature, and her dane ing is captivating.
 Ralph Ince directed the picture. Others in the cast are Lloyd Ingra- ham, Lillian Elliott, Eva Southern, Alan Roscoe, Philo Mccullough and Marvyn Leroy.

FAWN GRAY ASKS
ANNULM MENT OF
LATE MARRIAGE
(By Dispatch A. ?. Wlrel

/ BALTIMORE, Jan. 18.-Fawn Gray,
dancer who stepped into the lime
light when Harry K. Thaw. escorted
her about the night clubs of New
York, filed suit in Baltimore circuit
court today for annulment of mar
riage of two months ago to Theodore
MacFarland of Philadelphia.
More recently she again came to
notice in connection with the ThaW
name when Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, re-
covering from elf-administered poison
in Chicago hospital and whom the
dancer described as an old friend,
refused to see her. In the petition
filed today she revealed herself as
Gladys Marie Brown, daughter of q
New York cartoonst.
The marriage took place in New
York tho annulment petition states,
as the climax of a three-day party
starting in Philadelphia, when the
dancer was in weak metnal and
physical state, unable 20 use her rea-
soning faculties to know what she
was doing" The petition further
alleges that while she was in "such
an irresponsible condition, MacFar-
land, through fraud, misrepresenta-
tion, duress and deceit" caused the
marriage ceremony to be performed.
J. Charles Fagan, attorney for the
dancer entered the petition. Walter
J. Fleming was named guardian for
the purpose of the suit, Miss Gray's
age having been stated as 20. Mac
Farland's age was given as 81.

To facilitate the movement of traf-
fic over the Southern Pacific railroad
system between Mescal and Tucson, a
double cross-over is being completed
at the former point c. d. Beeth, as
sistant superintendent at Douglas,
informed the Douglas Dispatch Mon
Gay. 9
When this track is completed, trans
going in one direction will not head
toward trains going in the opposite
direction between those two points
and thus necessitate lay overs on
switches. Thus when completed, all
eastbound traffic between Tucson and
Mescal will proceed over the old F..
p and S. w. main line and all vest
bound traffic between those two
points will go over the Southern Pa
cific main line.
Work on this cross-over, Beeth said,
has been progressing now for about
three weeks and as only about 5000
feet of track has to be laid, it is
nearly completed. When finished
this arrangement will afford virtually
a two-track line between Mescal and
Tucson, distance of approximately
40 miles.

EX-SERVICE MEN
CAN REINSTATE
u. S. INSURANCE

News of interest to ex-service men
in Douglas is contained in the fol-
lowing letter, regarding insurance,
which has been received by the local
Red Cross chapter from the office of
the regional manager of the United
States Veterans bureau at Phoenix.
Veterans wishing 20 reinstate their
policies have an opportunity to do
so until July 2, 1925.
The letter states:
Few men who carried insurance
during the war are still keeping cit
in force, and some do not realize that
they will have the opportunity to
reinstate it. After July q 1925, it
bring this matter to the attention
of ex-service men in your vicinity.
The conditions governing reinstate-
ment are as follows: If a veteran
is in good health he may apply for
reinstatement of the whole or any
part of his insurance on or before
July 2, 1925. If he is not in good
health, and his physical disability is
the result of an injury or disease
suffered, contracted or aggravated in
the active service of the World War,
he may still apply for reinstatement
providing his insurance has not been
lapsed or cancelled for a period Of
more than two years. In the case of
a. man who has a service connected
disability, he mue: submit proof that
he is not permanently and totally

Southern Pacific Building A
Double Cross-OUer at Mescal;
To ConUert Oil Burner Engines

The hew plan, however, will not
mean the shifting of any more traffic
over the southern main line of the
s. p, through Douglas, from the
northern main line via Benson, ac-
cording. to the local official.
Despite the fact that the big oil
tank just completed here is now
functioning, Beetn declared Monday
that the ultimate aim on the S. p.
system in this section is to run only
coal burning engines on the freight
trains These engines are cheaper to
operate then those burning oil, he
asserted, and as soon as the oil
burners can be converted into coal
burners, they will all run with coal
as fuel. This transformation takes
time, however, and only two or three
engines are being changed into the
coal burning type each month. Coal
chutes are being built at Deeming,
Lordsburg, Mescal and Tucson IN
preparation for this shift in engines.
The passenger trains, however, will
continue to be drawn by the oil
burning engines.

DAWES CAMP PAIGN
ON FILIBUSTERS IS
not A SUCCESS
GBv Disnatch A. p. Wirel


WASHINGTON, Jan. 18--A declara-
ton in the senate today that the
senate has rules under which it
can end filibusters brought a broad
grin to the face of Vice President
Dawes, who is conducting a cam
paign for amendment of the rules
to prevent such delaying tactics.
AS Senator Heflin, democrat, Ala
bama, made the remark, Senator
Borah, republican, Idaho, interrupted
to call attention to the smile of
the presiding officer and both. the
senate and galleries burst into
laughter.
Senator Heflin's declaration was
coupled with warning that cloture
could be invoked to prevent a fill
buster on the world court. Such a
filibuster Immediately ensued, being
conducted single handed by Senator
Blease, democrat, South Carolina.
Dawes appeared to get consider
able amusement out of the one man
filibuster and joked about it with
number of senators who came to
his desk from time to time At
other times he leaned back in his
chair, exchanging smiles with sena-
tors on the floor.
SO far as the senate itself is con-
cerned, the vice presidents cam
paign for changes in the senate
rules is just where it was when
Dawes launched it in his famous
inaugural address last year.
