NO MARRIAGE,
so NON-SUPPORT
CHARGE FALLS

After promising Judge Cochran in
City Court last February that he
would marry the girl who caused his
arrest on a charge of breach of pro-
mise, Joseoff Polyworslxi, obtained a
marriage license and went home. He
thought that sufficient. but in City
Court today he was again charged
with non-support. Before hearing
any testimony however. Assistant
City Solicitor John f. Lynn informed
the court that the couple had not
been married and that the girls
charge of non-support therefore could
not hold. AS a result the case was
dismissed. Since he obtained the IL
cense Joseoff learned that more was
needed than the license to consum-
mate a marriage contact.

Last Saturday evening in the Office Barber Shop just after leaving the chair in which he was being shaved Louis Korn, proprietor of the Hotel Wigwam was attacked by a fainting spell on his way from the chair to the hat rack. It all happened in an instant; falling forward against the wall, then backward against the barber chair when one of the men in the place caught him in his arms preventing which might have resulted in a serious acci- dent. He was assisted to chair and Dr. Bazell was called to as- sist the sick man, who soon re- covered sufficient strength to be escorted home. It is said that the fainting spell was caused from food he had partaken of that day, causing slight poising of the stomach. MT. Korn was well and able to be about the next day.

Christmas Exercises

Yesterday at the Mexican school the first of the Christmas exercises by school children was witnessed.
 The performance consisting of three acts entitled Santa Claus Helpers was given by the chil- dren of the End grade.
 Another merry skit called, Santa Claus Visit was rendered by the 1st grade pupils. Father Marx delivered an address that was filicious and commendatory of the work done by the teachers and scholars. This was followed by a Christmas treat of candies and sweetmeats, participated in by 150 children. Much of the success of this particular Christ mas festivity was due to the en- terprising energy and untiring zeal of Mrs. George Weinert, teacher of the school.

Catholic Church Notes

The Rev. George Marx will to- morrow celebrate his first Sun day Mass at Winslow. Father Marx has been in Winslow for the past three weeks succeeding Father Connolly who has been transferred to Tucson, but has been at Williams and Kingman the last two Sundays.
 Coming originally from Buffalo which was his first assignment in America the new Winslow pas tor occupied the position of as- sistant to the Vicar General at Tucson, Ariz., for nearly two years. More recently he has been pastor of the church at Tomb stone.
 Father Marx is a scholar of rare ability and wide experience possesses many qualities that will reconcile local Catholics to the loss of their old pastor Father Connolly.
 When interviewed yesterday he announced that the Winslow church entil now conducted as a mission has been raised to the dignity of parish and heretofore nameless, will hereafter be known as St. Joseph's church.
 Bishop Granyon is reported to be desirous of relieving the local priest of attending the Williams and Kingman mission so that Winslow will have the exclusive services of their pastor and the announcement is expected to be gratifying to local Catholics.
 Another change announced is that hereafter, mass will be celebrated here on the first anC third, and on the fifth Sunday when it occurs. On the End anC 4th Sundays there will be nc services. Benediction will follow immediately after the 9:30 mass and Rosary devotion at 2 o'clock in the evening.
 A Christmas eve entertained by the Sunday school class vii be held at ' P. M. at the Catho lie church. Free admission ant lots of fun is assurance of a goot time, and contributions for tn Christmas tree will be grateful, received.
