ANNIVERSARY DANCE
At JUAREz
COLLEGE
Students and Parents and
Friends Have Enjoyable
Evening.
Evening.

For the reason that Saturday was
the fourth birthday anniversary Of the
Juarez Agricultural college, the $50
students of that institution gave their
friends an entertainment Saturday and
danced until Saturday no longer existed.
1t was early Sunday morning before
the celebration was over and the most
important event Of tire school year
ended.
Entertainment and the following
dance formed a pretty affair, especially
since it was arranged by the masculine
hands Of the students themselves; they
do everything at the Mexican instiru-
ton The dining hall was converted
into theater with a temporary stage
built at one end and school benches
formed in tiers over the floor. And
the dormitory had been changed to a
dance supper hall. For these reasons
the students ate the o'clock meal
standing in the big patio back Of the
kitchen, and many were compelled to
sleep in the dormitory patio. But when
the fair ones are entertained none may
complain.
When all the bellies Of Juarez society
had arrived and were seated in feminine
loneliness on the school benches, thu
affair began. First the orchestra
breathed pretty Spanish bit, and then
the speaking began Two students
talked briefly and a professor talked
at great length, as pedagogs ever do.
\ young woman sang an Italian song,
and sang it very well, and a student
sang the Spanish Of Schubert classic
Then the awarding Of prizes for stu
dent efficience began, and more than a
score Of the pupils walked singly up to
the table where the faculty sat and re-
ceived a diploma and 4 bundle Of fic-
ton books each After that a one-act
farce comedy was given by half
dozen students and the boys IN women's
clothes brought much laughter, more it
seemed, than the lines of the play.
And then came the dance after the
benches had been removed from the
floor, and dance they did until the long
line of carriages stole away the fair ones,
and they were fair ones, too, more than
100 OF them There had been a supper,
a continuous affair, for the dormitory
dining room could not hold all And
the fathers and mothers watched the
dance, for Mexican parents seldom dance
themselves. The little morning came
too soon for the dancers for they dance
but once year at the Juarez college.

Shot at pr. ChishoIn

Some unknown party took several shots at Dr. J. s. Chisholm near the residence Of Mir r. A. Cater on the Summerfield road about o'clock Sunday night. While some of the shots whistled close by pr. ChishoIms head he escaped in- jury, came on to Selma and reported the incident to Sheriff Doherty and the po- lice department.
 pr. Chisholm had spent the afternoon in Summerfield and was returning home. When about two miles from Selma he mo- ticed a buggy on the road in front of him. which he belives contained two white men. Dr. Chisholm passed the buggy and as he did so one of the men commanded him to halt. Dr. Chisholm did not stop his horse and paid no at tention to the command to stop. When he was a short distance in front of the buggy containing the two men, one of them began shooting at him, firing sev- eral shots.
 s. A. Fowlkes carried officers to the scene of the shooting in his automobile but there was no evidence to be found there as to who had done the shooting. A short distance from where the shoot ing had occurred the officers found MT Suttles lying in the road in drunken condition. MT. Suttles had no pistol on him at the time he was found by the officers.

Inquest Held Yesterday

Coroner Brasher held an investigation yesterday of the death of E.sP. Ellison. the switchman who was killed last week at the steel plant. The inquiry was held Echols & Angwin, and quite a number of witnesses were examined. As will be remembered, Ellison met his death while riding on the front end of a switch en- zine which jumped the track and ran into a train of cars standing on side track. He was caught between the en- zine and cars and literally crushed to pieces. The jury returned verdict charging reckless running of the engine and that the track was in faulty condi- tion.
