icult to untangle the case. The China
men charges robbery, while the boys
who were shot state that the Cinnamon
made the first attack on them. The
Chinaman, Lee Nun, is well known in
Ell Paso and has been cook at the coun-
ty jail for several years. He was the
first Chinaman in Ell PasO to ride a
bicycle and is often seen on the streets
on his bike If Justice Bridgers fails
to unravel the mystery then the grand
jury will probably take trial at the
case. If the police wou d start in to
break up hOodlumism on the streets
Saturday night it would be much
easier to unravel such cases, as 1T could
then be found out whether parties
really intended to commit robbery, or
whether they were trying to play mis-
chievOus pranks.
The HERALD'S relay bicycle team
made record on the road yesterday
from Ell PasO to Ysleta and return.
Four of the HERALD team challenged
the Times relay team in Saturdays
HERALD for race, The Times saw
fit to refuse the challenge claiming 1t
was 40 Individual challerge and 1t
could not accept. The challenge was
an Individual challenge, but the Times
was not challenged-only it's Dragged
up relay team. The HERALD'S team
were at their posts at $3.50. The team
was composed of Leigh Bridgers, j. Z.
Bushong, Fiorin Lane and Charley
Newland. Each mau was to ride SIX
miles. Bridg gers made the start from
the corner Of Myrtle avenue and V1r-
giuia street. He turned the message
over to Bushong who took 1t to 4sleta
and it WAS sigoed there by L. Huttanus
and turned over to F'lorIn Lane, who
punctured his tire but kept up
his lick for six mills towards
Ell Paso and then turned
the message over to Charley NeSland
who brought it TO town and turned ~
over to representative Of the HER
AID. The relay run started at lO:2l
and returned at 1l:3S, making the time
for the whole run one hour and seven
teen m nutes and establishing record
fer relay runs from Ell Paso to Ysleta
and return. TIE roads were very
rough or the time would have been
made in l. SIS than one hour. The judges
who gned the message and took Inc
time we're A. j. Schultz, F. NJ Higgins,
W. B. Weir and w. w. Bridgers, and
these men can vouch for the correct
ness of the time and the fairness OF the
run. Now if Muculy Disguised

Artist of the Times thinks be can beat
the record with his relay team let him
90 after it. Ii he beats il the HERALD
tenn will make a new one thai Will be
be far more disgusting to him.
Several members of the McGlnty
club passed a very pleasant afternoon
yesterday at the Water Work pump
mouse, where they had an lmpromptu
picnic. A long table was ready for the
guests when they arrived at O'Clock
and it fairly crowned under the weight
of good wholesome eatables with which
1t was piled. TIE party amused them
selves by pitching quoits on the lawn
aud when Pete Wehner made the first
ringer be got so happy over the event
that he sent straightaway for keg OF
beer. Chairman, not to be outdone by
Wehner. sent for a box of cigars and
the boys drank and smoked and tossed
quoits as long as there was light to see
Dy and many remained even after
dark. The time was enjoyably spent
by all and those present wished for
many happy re.uros OF such occasions.
son we've got lively racket up in
my block sd d Fred Taylor this morn
ing. There were three babies born
in that block Saturday night and sew
eral other blocks YET 10 hear from.
Mr. McGinulS' wife presented with an
eight pound boy; Mr.. Reed found a
pretty girl at his home, and Mr.
also found d cooling babe at his house.
This with Stanley Bevan's hope and
pride which came the night before has
got the neig b borhood all topsy-turvey
and l don't expect 10 see Mrs. lay Tor
any more for d week as she Is out tod
dl ng he little ones and feeding the

"There is getting to be altogether
too much hoOdlumism among the
young bloods on Saturday nights"
spoke an old officer this morning.
They start out late at night and play
ali sort of pranks ard GO all kind or
mischief dur ng their rounds. Most of
Their miscbievOusness is committed on
Utah street ard around the dauce halls
and as some of the parties are well
known in society they would not like
70 ST e their names in print, in Connec-
ton with some Of the acts they c.m-
nit. l do not char ge aoy of them with
very serious wrong dong, bat they are
gradually working up 10 point wh re
they will get into court anu into PROT
also if they do not quit their ways
The police have often arrested many
men for committing much milder Of
lenses against the peace of the city and
have many times let some OF these
young bloods go rather than expose
their acts to The public, but in time
patients ceases to be virtue and they
will all get run in the first thing they
know
Several people were at the 7. g. P.
