THE HOW OF THE
 AUTO ACCIDENT
Operator Earl Returns and Tells How Harry Wclch
 Came by His Hurts; Will
 Try to Take Convicts at Work on Road and Bridge

Harry Welch is smiling through his battered face" is the message If Operator Ralph Earl to the friends of the secretary of the Phoen!v board of trade who is in the hospital at Globe with a broken nose, cracked head and other similar injuries due to q fall out of a runaway automobile on the Roosevelt road Monday afternoon. Earl arrived last night from long trip over from Globe on which he made some pictures with his busted picture box, the success of which he will not promise He left Welch to the enjoyment of an enforced Vac1- tion while his head mends, and brings his promise to leave for Phoenix in about a week
 Speaking of the cause of the ac- cident. Earl said We were coming down the road about a mile this side of the dam. It was our purpose to- turn out of the road into the path that leads along the river to the power house, and to get there with the machine We had to come back about half mile. As he went to turn into the power house road, the driver got frightened and left the wheel If he had kept his head and put on the brakes, only the front wheels would have gone over the bank which is not very steep. But the chauffeur jumped out and left the machine go over. We succeeded in getting out safely but Harry was not quick enough. He fell in the rocks head first He was not knocked out, nor did he lose consciousness on the drive to Globe. Fortunately Jack Mathews came along and We took Harry in his machine. The drive to Globe, about thirty seven miles, was made in the fast time of two hours and in order to make it we had to go some The car lurched along the winding road fit to throw us all out and we had a lot of trouble keeping Harry with us"
 Then Earl told the gruesome details of Welch's injuries His nose is smashed and there is a six-inch cut from the forehead back to the crown exposing a palms breadth of the skull which is thought to be slightly frac- tured On the way to Globe the wounds bled profusely and all the cloth in the company was necessary to tie about the unfortunate mans head to keep him from bleeding to death. As it was the back of the auto was like a shambles when it ar rived in Globe.
 Earl will attempt to take some more pictures of the valley this morning and afternoon If he can arrange with Governor Hunt he will go to the stockade in Tempe and take some views of the prisoners working on the bridge And if it can be arranged he will then go on to Florence to catch the convicts at their road making and if possible in their sports and aero battles in the prison yard. Unless something of this nature can be ar ranged for him, the Pathe man will leave this evening for Los Angeles,

DISTRICT NO 1 BONDS
 BRING s 5000 PREMIUM
The Successful Bid Related One By
 Teegrap ph.

For premium of $50O0 the board of supervisors yesterday awarded the
 $200000 issue of school bonds of
 school district No. 1 of the firm of
 Bolger, Moser and Wilaman of Chi
 cago, after the adjournment of an eX-
 citing session in which something happened which does not often occur
 in such meetings.
 There were four bidders for the bonds as follows: The Valley bank of this city. $2O2 600; w N. Coler & Co. of New York. $201, 900; Bolger,
 Moser and WiHaman. $2O2, ,747, and Chapman, Mills X Co of Chicago, s203, ,251.S3 These bids had been open ed the day before
 The trouble of yesterday was pre- cipitated by E. E. Blanton of Gaines vile. Texas, representing BoIger, Moser and Willaman, saying that he had received telegram from his firm too late to be incorporated in the bid, offering premium of $5000. A vigorous protest was entered by R. J. Edwards of Chapman. Mills & Co, the high bidders, against the re- i opening of the bids or the considera- i ton of the auction bid" of Bolger, | Moser and Willaman. In the course ! of his remarks. Mr Edwards disclos- l ed that the evening before MT. Blan- ! ton had proposed d collusion to hold | the premium down to that offered by ! Chapman, Mills & Co. MT. BlantOn 1 denied that he had made such a pro- position
 There was already a resolution be- ! fore the board for the acceptance of i the bid of Chapman Mills x Co. but
 a recess was taken until five o'clock 1 in the afternoon when the award was made to BoIger, Moser and Willaman. 1 -O--

could have enjoyed other things than
encyclopedias with somewhat OF a
relish
Among the things we figured on we're
an automobil.. a trip to Europe and a
house and lot OF our own. we knew
that we could never have these things
while paying for the encyclopedia for
every time we saved up $3.50. the

and gently on the elbow and held up
the yellow slip.
That encyclopedia developed into n
mania. an obsession in fact. and We
hadn't had time to read far enough into

Voice Of the People
I.ugenir Marriages.,

To the Editor of The Times Dispatch:
Sir,-Thc recent action Of certain
Episcopal ministers of Richmond in op-
position to the advocacy OF a eugenic
marriage requirement in the church
has caused much surprise and no little
comment among those who have been
taught To believe the church the centre
OF righteousness and the representative
of Christ on earth. II seems that most
of their objections take the form OF
fears OF what will happen in case OF
the enforcement Of such n law; and
