Dr. Purdy was not too sick to be around town Saturday and certain it Is that he was out Sunday morn ing apparently as we'll as usual. Dr. Purdy is the appointed county physician and is paid to attend to county cases. In view of the criti- cisms that have been uttered in connection with the case, the coun- ty board ot supervisors should in- vestigate the matter. If the county physician has not been negligent, the criticisms should be silenceG. II it should be shown that he was at fault, his resignation should be demanded.

''you BET WE'LL BEAT EM"
Nogales and Tucson Will Play for the
 Championship of Arizona.

We're going to Tucson to beat the Tucson team the 10th, two weeks from Sunday. We beat the soldiers worse than they did, and now we have a better team than we had when we played the soldiers. All the boys need is a little practice and guess they'll have time to practice up before the 10th, 50 you see we're sure to beat 'em.n
 And Dr. N. K. Noon smiled all over at the happy prospect of see- ing another ball game in the near future, in which his Diamond N team Of Nogales will play a stellar part.
 Mir. Emanuel Drachman, man. ager of the Tucson base ball club, was d visitor in NogaIes Tuesday and Dr. Noon couldn't resist tell- ing him what easy pickings the Tucsonians would be for the bat swinging bunch who breathe the international ozone of the twin cities.
 The Tucson fan couldn't see it and lost no time in assuring the Nogales enthusiast that at least one member of the Drachman family was Missourian in this particular case. With all the solemnity such occasions co amand arrangements were then entered into with a view to giving the line city lads an opportunity to prop erly show" Mr. Drachman and all other Tucson Missourians the diff ference between a wrinkle and q ruffie.
 Sunday, August 20, is the date set and Tucson the place where the history-making event will come off.
 At both ends of the line between here and Tucson arrangements are now being made for the biggest ball game of the season in Arl- zona.
 Arrangements are being made with the railroad company to run l a special train to Tucson and re- turn for the game.
 And the train will be full of Nogales people, toe" said the com fdent doctor. Well have one good game of base ball in Arizona ! this season, anyhow. And if one beating don't satisfy those Tucson fellows, we'll bring them down here later in the season and do 1t over again. And we'll give them q royal good time while We are beat ing them. too, just to show 'em that Nogales is all right"

LITTLE FELLOWS STRUCK BY ENGINE
 AND LEGS cur OFF.
Crushed and Bleeding Two Children Suffer All Night Without Services of ooctor-Pitiful Case Made More pitiful by Neglect.

Two Mexican boys, Carmen Men deg, eleven years old and Ylario Olivaz, fourteen years old, were struck by the engine of the incom- ing passenger train Saturday night. Each of the boys had leg taken off and was otherwise injured. The Mendez boy, the younger of the twain, besides having his right leg amputated below the knee. suffered a compound fracture of the thigh, very high up, and had his right arm broken. He also sustained a cut on the side and an ugly bruise on the side of the head. He was delir- ious when brought to town. The other suffered no serious injury except the crushing of the right foot, which was amputated just above the ankle. The operations were performed by pr. W. H. Purdy, assisted by Dr. J IL. Nicholson.
 Just how the accident occurred even the boys themselves do not seem to know. With Ramon Madril, uncle of the Mendez boy, they left Tumacacori Satu, day evening with q load of watermel- Ions, which they were to bring 10 Nogales They drove as far as Potrero. near where they stopped and camped for the night. Where they stopped the county road runs close to the railroad Madril says he laid down to sleep and was soon afterward aroused by the passing train, about nine o'clock in the evening. He called to the boys as he did not see them near him, and was answered by the Olivaz boy, who told him they were hurt. He got up and walked to where they were, and on learning what happened, immediately ran to a nearby ranch house for help
 After the man had laid down to sleep, the boys had evidently wan dered out on the bridge across the arroyo near which they had camp. ed. While on the bridge the train came in sight and the boys at tempted to escape by running tc the end of the bridge instead ot jumping down into the arroyo. As they neared the end of the bridge they were struck by the engine.
 Juan Taltima, who was at the ranch house to which the boy; were taken, drove to town to gel a doctor, but failed in his quesi and the boys laid at the rancf house all night without medical ol surgical attention. Not only wer, they all night without attention but it was not till late Sundal forenoon that they were fnall, brought into town and taken t the Arizona hotel and it was lat, in the afternoon before their iniur ies were attended to.

 THE OASIS. reporter enqulred into the case during the week with view to ascertaining where lay the blame for the neglect of the little sufferers. Dr. N. K. Noon, one of doctors who was called during the night to attend the wounded boys, said:
 II was called sometime during the night to go out in the country to attend to couple of boys who had been run over by the train. When told of the accident l saw at once that 1t was a case for either the county physician or the rail- road surgeon. and 1 did not want to interfere with their work. Night Watchman Charles Lopez and Mexican who had come in from the scene of the accident called me. l told them 1t was either a county case or a railroad case and they should call Dr. Purdy or Dr. King sley (the latter was in charge of the railroad work during the ab- sence of Railroad Surgeon Fergu son). They told me they had called pr. Purdy and he told them he was not feeling well. l knew pr. Purdy had been around town as usual during the day and did not think he was too sick to attend to .he case. l told them where Dr.. Kingsley lived and when they left to call him l went back to bed Had 1t been my case would have gone out, eyen if l wasn't feeling very we'll"
 pr. Kingsley was met on the street Sunday afternoon and asked by the reporter why he did not go out to attend to the case Saturday night.
 II was not called Saturday night he replied Had l been called l would certainly have gone out and given the boys what atten- ton l could. I was not called and |did not hear of the accident till ten o'clock this morning I got ready at once to go out When l came down town l met Dr. Purdy land we went out together. When we arrived at the place where the boys were Pr. Purdy assumed charge of the case and that took fl out of my hands,
 Monday the reporter called on { Dr. Purdy at his office and after mentioning the fact that there had been some talk of neglect in con- neetion with the case, asked him it was true that he had been called to attend the boys Saturday night and refused to do so.
 "Oh, I don't know whether l was called on this case or not" said Dr. Purdy. II was called three or four times Saturday night and didn't answer any of the calls. didn't get up at all Saturday night I was not feeling we'll didn't know anything about this particu

 No child in arms could have looked up to bis mother with more unreasoning confidence; nor could one less understand her failure to accomplish the miracle desired.
 And that boy, with foot crushed to a pulp, was allowed to suffer, unattended, all night.
 In the next room lay the little Mendez boy. He did not moan. He did not ask to be cured. He lay upon the bed, motionless, apparently dying, while watching over him sat his mother.

 The bandaged stub of the right leg was disclosed by removal of the bed spread. The broken thigh was in temporary bandages, be- cause the child was too near death to undergo the operation necessary to reduce the fracture. The left arm, broken, bandaged, lay limp upon the bedclothes. One side of the face was bruised and one eye discolored and swollen
