Nogales High Will
Meet Bisbee Teams
Local Gym Tonight

Interest in school basket ball has
received a decided impetus within
the past few weeks, or since Coach
Bill Kerr has found the proper po-
sitions in which to place his players.
After several shakeups the, final
lineup succeeded in winning from
the Vasey-Cords, of Tucson, top
liner team, with plenty to spare In
their game last week.
The improvement shown In the
last few games is attributed by the
coach to change in offensive me-
thods, the slow breaking offensive
having been adopted instead of the
opposite. This change allows the
holder of the ball time to decide
and to prepare his pass.
The local high school squads, first
and second teams, will play double
header this evening at the gym
nasium, with corresponding teams
from Bisbee. 1t is expected that the
local boys, with Mike Simon now
playing running guard position and
M. Lowe at forward, will show real
class during the contest. The first
game starts at 1880, and the second
at $50.
The junior high school league
composed of teams from Lincoln
school, from the 7th and 9th grades
of the Plum street school, Camp
Little, and two boy scout teams, play
every Saturday forenoon and are
making strides. These teams will
furnish future players for the SEN
ior league and many of the young
players are showing exceptional
ability.

NINE FIRE ALARMS
IN JANUARY; LOSS
BIG FOR MONTH

. The year 1890 started off with un-
usual activity by the NogaleS fire
department. In January there were
nine alarms responded to, three of
the fires being quite disastrous from
a financial standpoint. New Years
day the Jones building, in which are
the K. of G. Lodge rooms took fire
from some unknown cause and re-
suited in damage to the amount of
$4,000.
This was followed on Jan. 6 by
the Leatherman store fire on Grand
avenue resulting in a $4,000 loss.
The most disastrous fire occurred
on Jan. 16 when the Ell Paso Store,
owned by the Capin family, was
damaged to the extent OF $4,000
by fire and water. Only the most
capable handling of the situation
by the department prevented a
more serious elimination as the
scene of the fire was directly be-
meath the rooms of the Hotel Evans.
The remaining six alarms were
for small fires, one an automobile,
and were extinguished by the use
of chemicals with but negligible loss.
Both pieces of apparatus were cal
led into service during the month
and some $500 feet of fire hose were
used according to report filed by
Capt. Al Camerlin. There was one
false alarm.

COCKTAIL SHAKER MAY
BE RULED AS ILLEGAL

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6-UP)-
The status of a cocktail shaker is
the point at issue in u. S. District
Court here.
Is cocktail mixer manufacturing
liquor?
An indictment charged Joseph
Daniel Murphy with possession and
manufacture of whisky. He admitted
the count of possession, but pleaded
that he was cutting grain alcohol
and making cocktails which he felt
was not manufacturing, in the sense
of the law.
The U. S. district attorneys office
felt that it was. Murphy's counsel
argued that if the court construed
the mixing of water and alcohol as
manufacturing liquor, then any per-
son mixing alcohol with other IL
guilds would be guilty of the Of
fenSe.
The case is under advisement.

|DR. S|zOO'S ACTION
PREVENTS DEATH
Knocks Poison From Hand OF
Man Who Has Been on
Visit to Study.

DR.. Joseph r. Sizoo of New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church yesterday
probably saved the life of Harvey john
son of 400 block of Rhode Island ave-
nue., knocking from the mans hand a
phial Of poison from which he was
drinking.
johnson, who was treated for the eff
fects of the small amount Of poison at
George Washington University Hospital,
escaped from Gallinger Hospital, where
he was taken later only to be recaptured
short time afterward. He is being
held at the hospital for mental obser-
walton.
johnson had been comforting with DR.
SiZoo for some time before taking the
poison. After the conference he left
the minister's study, calling "good-by"
to DR.. Sizoo as he went out.
DR.. Sizoo told police he opened the
door of his study in time to see johnson
lift a phial to his lips. He said he
knocked the phial from the mans hand
and called for aid.
johnson first was taken to George
Washington University Hospital and
given first aid for the effects of the
poison by DR.. v. Gould.
Police said estrangement from his
wife and other troubles caused johnson
to take the poison.
