Failed to Find His Man

District Attorney Geary, of Wins low was in town Thursday looking for Mexican who shot his wife in the shoulder, then spread hot lead so thick that the officers failed to apprehend him.
 It may have been case of justi- fable wrath, for the Mexican and wife had been married only one week when he applied for a divorce before the same court which had married him.
 It seems the lady in the case was the mother of a child, which fact she concealed from her lover until after her relatives had relieved him of about $7O0 and other portable property at little family game of poker.
 Mir. Geary failed to locate his man here, and returned east on No. the same evening.

Theatrical Season Opened

The opening of the theatrical sea son was inaugurated in Williams on Wednesday night by the Beggar Prince Opera company, one of the best comic opera companies that ever visited the southwest. in pre- senting to our music loving theater goers "Fernanda," to a fair-sized audience, and that the opera was appreciated was evidenced by the frequent and hearty applause. It was a rare treat to those present, and Manager Johnston is to be heartily congratulated in securing this frst-class company, as it is rare indeed that company of such merit will consent to stop in towns the size of Williams. If the man. agement of the opera house contin- ues to book with attractions such as the above it will not be long until Williams will become one of the best ''show" towns along the line but our people will not stand for the barn storming aggregations which have frequently visited this section in the past.

Social dance at Silvernail hall Tuesday night, Sept. 18th. Good music. Admission 75 cents.
 One Stewart, a tailor, who was employed in the new tailor shop re- gently opened in the Walsh build ing, was arrested here the first of the week and taken to Flagstaff by Deputy Sheriff Ferguson. Stewart was charged with stealing a watch and suit case in Flagstaff. At his preliminary hearing Thursday he was bound over to the grand jury in the sum of $500.
 Last Saturday as Lieut.. Wheeler of the Arizona Rangers stepped from the train here he saw a Mexi- can named Jesus Garcia near the depot and the manner in which the man was handling a large butcher knife did not look good to the off, cer. He brought the Mexican over town and turned him over to Con- stable Adams. Jesus is now enjoy ing a 30 day vacation at the Hotel d'Henderson at Flagstaff.
 Santiago Medina was sent to jail at Flagstaff last Friday evening having been found guilty of petit larceny. It was shown that while he thought he was an artist in the lifting" line his work was in re- ality very coarse, even though he got off with 6-pisto], a razor and some shirts belonging to another Mexican. His services will be ap- preciated at the jail as "swamper" for the next thirty days.
 Last Saturday Lieut.. Wheeler of the Arizona Rangers arrived in the city for the purpose of looking into the shooting in which one of the force had been engaged. Just what his report will be we are unable to say, but as there will be no serious results to the man shot it is likely that the matter will be dropped. The lieutenant, however, in arrest ing a Mexican at the depot and then turning him over to one of the local officers, set good example for the rest of the force. Had Ranger Neill done the same thing there would have been no shooting.

Fatal Accident

Last Monday a young Mexican by the name of Jose Lopez, aged IS, who was in the employ of the Lan trys at or near Challender, where they are putting in the abutments for bridge, met with an accident which resulted in his death. They were handling a heavy stone and the man had hold of a rope and was guiding the boom by means of same. Not like most men would have done, he was standing directly under the stone, and when the clamps slipped off it was impossi- ble for him to get out of the way. As consequence as the rock fell it struck him on the stomach, hips and legs, crushing them. He was brought here to the hospital and lived only short time, the opinion of the doctor being that a blood vessel had been ruptured. The cor oner's inquest resulted in the ac quittal of the company from all blame,

WADENA WON
IN POOR GAME
Contest Yesterday Afternoon

ing II to s.

Wadena yesterday afternoon
defeated Bemidji in a poor e1.
hibition of base ball at the local
grounds and at the end of the
ninth Inning the score stood II
to 5 in favor of the aggregation
from down the line, which was
made up of players from Little
Falls, Brainerd, St, Cloud and
other cities. Both teams played
poor ball and errors were fire.
quent, That Bemidii did not put
up good game is due largely to
the fact that only about one.halt
of the regular team played
several new men being placed in
the lineup.
The batteries were Morris and
Myers for Wadena and LeGore.
Riddell, Hazen and Smith for
Bemidji. Wadena secured IA
hits and Bemidji eight. Morris
struck out seven men, LeGore
one and HaZen four. A home
run by Myers was feature OF
the game.

She wiped up the gasolene
but did not deem it safe TO re
light the fire Immediately, fear
ing that the gas which had &C.
cum ulated in the room would
catch on fire. Mrs. Rhoda called
a neighbor, who advised her that
there was no danger, and the fire
was started again. The neighbor
left the house but was in
moment called back by another
man who discovered the burning
woman, and together they ex-
tinguished the flames and laid
her upon a bed, where she ex-
pired seven minutes after the
fire was started.
