fiery red, those mellow blue eyes, his
befreckled cOunteDance and that chin,
frescoed with an occasional smear or
Battle Axe, evidently attracted Fran
els MariOn's admiration. AT least he
was induced to make upa batch OF
Family Disturbance under his latest
and most improved receipt. and wend
his way to dance which was in full
blast near Shaw, and then and there
| to make his fortune. Fifty cents a
mint for rain water, brown sugar and
Standard Navy was very enticing
unto the mind of Francis and he
coul1 not refrain. Upon his arrival
he was met at the vehicle by a Gus

fighters celebrated Washing t on
birthday Saturday night by spending

as hilarious and disturbing as pos
sible. If the city marshal would pay

enforcement of the Curfew ordinance

some of whom are making their oragS
that they have him bluffed, he would
come nearer earning his salary and
pleasing the people.
