McClure, of Yuma, relative to alleged violations of the state insur ance laws, has been dismissed by the corporation commission. A complaint was filed by the Barr aeenrr, alleging that they had been ap pointed agents for automobile insur ance for the state by the general agents, Bentley Waterman, that they were to receive commissions of 25 per cent, pay sub-agents 15 per cent, and that the coast agents had issued Ari zona policies, sending them to Mc- Clure for signature, and paying him 5 per cent.

C. Woolsey, of 1225 East Fillmore street, last Tuesda'y night. About 9 o'clock that night a member of the family saw on the top of the peak what seemed to be a red light. Mr. Woolsey had a pair of good field glasses, and through them he dis cerned that the light was that of a small bonfire. As he looked, the light seemed to come and go. -It was at first thought that some one was passing to and fro in front of the fire. But then it oc curred to him that that would not wholly obscure the light, and he de cided that it was a bonfire built by Boy Scouts and that they were sig nalling by means of a blanket. Mrs. Woolsey at the time suggested that there might be some relation be tween the fire and the missing woman of whom the newspapers had spoken, but that was not seriously consiedred and the family concluded that the fire was that of a Boy Scouis' encampment. When it was learned that the aged woman had with her a steamer rug. Mr. Woolsey believed that she was s g nalling at that time. o BEAT COSTA RICA INVADERS SAN JOSE. Costa Rica.

"There Ain't No Such Animal--" Some years ago when Los Olivos was first introduced, and those large, handsome lots were offered for sale many people said the same thing that Uncle Hiram did when he saw his first ostrich. "There ain't no such animal." The original divergence from the staid city lot, to lots of such ample freedom was hard to comprehend. Like the man from Missouri "you had to be shown" then the unique advantages were noticed and appreciated, as evidence shows. There is only one Los Olivos in Phoenix. A tract laid out with the careful supervision to minute details, and guarded by the strict restrictions which have been critically en forced in Los Olivos, is not often repeated in any city. As the present ad. is written there are over thirty thousand dollars worth of homes be ing constructed in Los Olivos. There's A Reason Let TTs Show You. DWIGHT B. HEARD Center and Adams. v Realtor
