It was the contention of the County authorities that the boy could not be taken care of while the mother was in jail, facing a murder charge. Sherifr Catts, however. when he learned of the issuing of the adoption papers stated that the boy was welcome to remain with him until his mothers case had been disposed of. and that there were many good women in the town who would be glad to take the little fellow, so deep Is their sympathy for the mother.

HIKES
 WITH CASH ON HAND W. w. MARSHALL LEAVES NEAR " s2oo IN DEsTs-ARREsT-
 ED AT MARlcoPA. He Tried To Serve High Priced Meal
 For 25 cents-Restaurant Reopened.

". w. Marshall, a young man appar- ently between twenty and twenty-five years of age, who has been conducting the Bon Ton restaurant in the Cris- mon block for the past three weeks left for Maricopa Sunday night with debts hanging over him to the extent of be- tween one hundred and fifty and two hundred dollars. The authorities were immediately notified of the fact and the deputy-sheriff at Maricopa arrested him yesterday while waiting for a main line train
 The business men of the town who will suffer most by the sudden flight of Marshall are, LeBaron Bros, Shat tuck-Nimno and G. Fritz Martin of the Mesa Meat Market.
 Marshall had been employed as driv- CT on milk route in the city where it is understood that he gave the best of satisfaction and which he continued to do until he went in the restaurant business. He did a considerable amount of advertising and in short time he had a long list of customers. He made a speciality of chicken dinners and sometime fed as high as seventy-five and hundred guests. It appears that Marshall had considerable business judgment, was a close buyer and a bargain driver only that he believed that he could serve a high class meal for 25 cents. It may or may not be a fact that a first class meal can be served in the Salt River valley for % cents but that at least is given as one of their reasons that Marshall did not succeed. He fed enough people to pay splendidly unless he continued to give them more than their moneys worth.
 The building and fixtures are owned by Ernest Crismon. It is understood that the restaurant will not close but will continue with the same cook, the only exception being that Marshall will not be cashier.
