Bessemer, December 16.-(Special.)-D tective H. P. Partridge was shot and painfully though not seriously wounded tonight shortly after o'clock when, in company with Officer George Coins, they raided craps game in the Atlanta, Bir- mingham and Atlantic railroad yards.
 Numerous complaints have been re- ccived at police headquarters about coal thieves operating in the yards of the At lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic, and De- tective Partridge was detailed to look after the complaints In company with Officer Coins, Detective Partridge went to the yards tonight.
 They found a craps game in progress in one of the empty box cars and promptly raided it. One of the negroes showed fight and drew gun. He and Officer Coins fired at the same time. the negros bullet striking Detective Part ridge in the ankle. The negro that did the shooting escaped but five were held by Officer Coins until assistance arrived.
 Detective Partridges wounds were dressed by pr. Winters and he was re- moved to his home, where he is resting easily. No serious results are expected from the wounds.
 "Trade at Home and Trade Early'' | The Christmas trade is brightening up and the various stores and business houses in Bessemer have taken on quite a holiday appearance. Trade at home and trade carly is being urged by the commercial bodies and indications point that this suggestion is being carried out. The shoppers are increasing in numbers every day as those who trade now have the advantage of a larger choice of ar ticles and more time to give to their se- lection than those who wait until the eleventh hour" There has never been shown in Bessemer a more choice display of Christmas goods or a more varied se- lection than this season, which includes everything from the sparkling diamond to the homely peanut.

yised that there was grave doubt as
TO whether or not the loan of $S5.000
TO the state armory board, authorized
by the last legislature, could be made
under the laws OF Utah The opinion
given by Attorney General Barnes Fri
day was in reply TO letter from Mr.,
Fnrneworth asking advice as 10
whether or not he should advance the
money on note recently made 10 the

Attorney General Barnes says the
case is similar to the recent case of
the state against Candland. where the
constitutionality OF an act passed by
the Legislature authorizing loan OF
s250,O TO the University of Utah
was questioned. The latter case went
TO the state supreme court and was
decided against the university. pro
