A Spokane man and his wife

They had stopped to make call
on another friend, en- route, and
their auto had been run into the
barn.
When it came time to go, the
owner of the auto attempted to
crank it up. To his surprise the
thing wouldn't crank! He tried
again and yet again, and once
more. He began to pant, and to
say things at first under his
breath, presently out loud.
Here old man. let me have a
try" called his friend, coming out
to help him. So the friend began
to crank, and to crank, and to

HIP, HIP, HURRAH!
A BOUNCING BOY

If the fifth district judicial court
fails to convene at the regular hour
this morning, the delay can be
blamed to William M. Grimes, the
husky baliff, and Bill can blame
Kid Grimes, Jr., who arrived in this
city at 1880 o'clock last evening.
The new arrival is boy and weighs
eleven and one-half pounds, several
ounces less than Bill senior weighs.
1t is expected that the court will be
lenient if the baliff fails to appear
at the hour of opening, for who
wouldn't celebrate the advent of a
son and heir when the previous ar
rivals happened to be of the oppo-
site sex. DR.. Hammond, who was
In attendance, reported both mother

REPORTED STRIKE
! ON GRIMES LEASE
At ELLENDALE

A report was current upon the
streets yesterday that strike had
been made in the Grimes, Malley,
Warburton lease at Glendale. The
rhmor could not be verified. Mr..
Grimes stated that he had heard
the report but was not in a position
to confirm it. He did say that it
would not be at all surprising If
such were the case. At the present
time the shaft is down in the
neighborhood of twenty-five feet. 1t
is proposed to sink fifty feet before
prosecuting, provided the ledge is
not encountered in the meantime.
Ed Malley, one of the owners OF
the lease, departed yesterday after
noon for the new camp, presumab-
ly for the purpose of inquiring into
the authenticity of the report. He
will return to Tonopah today al
which time the public will be re-
liably informed as to whether Oh
not a strike has been made.

EXAMINATION OF
JURORS TAKING
time OF COURT

The examination of jurors con-
tinues to occupy the attention of
the court in the Ford case. Owing
to the careful questioning on the
part of the attorneys for each side,
the case is proceeding slowly. Each
man thus far examined has been
subjected to a most rigid exami-
nation as to his qualifications to sit
upon the jury that will determine
the guilt or innocence of the de-
PENDANT.
Yesterday there were three pros
pective jurors challenged and ex-
cused, principally because of inn
piled bias. They were David
Hooper, Charles E. Howard and
James J. McQuillan. Those who are
now in the box are James Crooks,
Grant G. Penrose, Charles E. Coble
