HAYDEN

HAYDEN, July 26.-An excellent piece of work was done here Friday afternoon by Deputy Walter Gibson when he took into custody three ap- parently dangerous characters in the persons of Arturo Machichi. Rafael Machichi and Luis Meranda just as they were threatening to shoot up" the saloon in the Mexican quarter( San Pedro) and murder the bar tender there. It seems that one of these bad men" was in the saloon few days ago in a much intoxicated condition and after becoming incensed because the bar tender did not serve his drinks just to his liking made some noise and threats but was driven from the saloon by bar tender Frank Hall The matter drifted along until Friday and the three prisoners are said to have made threats that they would kill the bar tender and any others who should cross thelr path, including deputy Gib- son. The affair came to head Friday when the three arrayed themselves with much artillery and started for the saloon Another Mexican prompt Iy notified Mr. Hall who armed him. self and phOned for officer Gibson with the resulI that when the dangerous trio arrived the officer, with others assist ing, got the drop on them and placed them in captivity with no disastrous results.
 Several months ago w. H. McCloud was in the employ of Thomas H. Den his here in connection with the run ming of the meat market and made many collections among the markets $ customers.

 THEY LICKED SCRUBS
Put 1t All Over Pick Up Players Next Game Tuesday Afternoon
 With Business Men.

The full complement of the Scrubs did not turn up yesterday afternoon for the game of vOlley ball with the Hustlers, and the tonnage that was picked up from here and there was too light to hold down the eXuberant opponents.
 Three One-sided games right in d neat and complete row went to Redewills team with not enough fea- ture playing on either side to make the excitement rise to the feverish point
 A conference of the managers of the Hustlers and Business men fol- lowing the game resulted in the set tiement of the date of the next set, after an argument over daylight or ircandescent light It was decided to hold the fete next Tuesday at five thirty There will not be as much opportunity to boost the attendance. but the players feel they can put up a better fight in the afternoon than at night.
