DRIVES AUTO ACROSS COUNTRY

Enjoying the unique distinction of
being the only armless auto driver
in the country, F. F. Firthen of Steu-
benyille. Ohio, arrived in Ely Friday
night on his way to the coast.
Firthen lost both arms near the

handicaps that ordinary persons
would deem impossible. Deprived of
the use of both hands Firthen manip-
ulates big Oakland car as cleverly
and skillfully as the best chauffeurs,
whose careers have been devoid of
misfortune.
Since leaving on the transcon-
tinental tour Firthen has averaged
5S miles an hour His efforts to
make living on the tour by selling
pictures of himself have received a
hearty response in every town that
he has visited. Firthen is able to
write letter by holding a pencil in
MS teeth He expects to leave today

Massengale to
Wear Stripes
YOUTH WHO BIT PART OF NIGHT
MARSHAL'S FINGER OFF MUST
SERVE PRISON TERN AT CAR
son FOR FORGING CHECK.

c. l.. Massengale pleaded guilty in
the district court yesterday to the
charge of forgery, and was given an
indeterminate sentence ranging from
one to fourteen years by Judge Nc
Fadden. After being arraigned, the
defendant waived his right to time
for passing sentence. and was will
ing to accept the judgment of the
court which will compel him to don
the garb of felon.
The convicted youth created a
sensation on Aultman street about
five weeks ago by biting off the end
of one of Night Marshal McDon-
oughs fingers. while resisting arrest
on the charge of forging the name OF
d. P. Curto to a check 1t was only
after bitter struggle that the un-
ruly pen wielder was placed behind
Jail bars. Massengale offered more
than ordinary resistance in a desper-
ate attempt to gain his freedom.
The peculiarly of the Nevada
statutes was in evidence shortly aft
er the man eater had been safely
placed in custody. 1t was discovered
without much effort that conviction
could hardly be obtained for may
hem, as a satisfactory outcome was
deemed questionable.
His downfall was due to sue
cessful attempt to cash check on
the Golden Rule store for S26.75
which purported to bear the sig
nature of ID. P. Curto. The manage
ment became suspicious of the per
formanee and soon learned that Mas
sengale could be held on a felon,
charge. Joe's Candy Kitchen also
fell a victim to the same manipula
tions. Night Marshal McDonougt
located the offender on Aultman
street a short time later, but with
dire consequences.

Satisfied With
Fourth Of July
FROM SPLENDOR OF CELE-
BsATION, HUGE CROWD EN-
JOYS VARIOUS SPORTS.

Without a single incident to mar
the beauty of the picture, Ely cele-
brated the anniversary of the nations S
independence amid a splendor that
satisfied the large throng that wend-
ed their way to the county seat to
enjoy the variegated program that
had been arranged for their benefit.
In spite of the thousands that were
in attendance at the various events,
there was marked absence of dis
order, and the worlds capital stock
OF gloom was not theirs. They intend
not to believe in borrowing trouble,
and as a result not a single arrest
was made by the peace officers while
the festivities we're at their height.
The different sports were pulled
off on schedule time in spite of the
fact that weather conditions were
not all that could be desired.
The barbecue was one of the big
attractions of the day 1t was sery-
ed at noon on the vacant lot adjoin-
ing the quarters of the Ely Baking
company. Four beeves were pro-
vided by the barbecue committee and
one was donated by the Ely Packing
company. There were pickles,
cheese, bread, baked beans, and other
things that soothed the pangs of hun
ger in abundance. One of the enjoy
able featuress of the occasion was
! the prompt manner in which the
large crowd was skillfully served
with everything in the shape OF
tempting deiicacies.
Ely won the SIS prize offered to
the winners of the wet test hose
race, getting water in 80 1-3 second;
The delegation from East Ely made
creditable run. but encountered all
sorts of difficulties in making con-
nections. The team from Ruth ap-
lpeared when darkness was coming on
and was unable to participate in the
contest owing to the lateness of the
hour. The Ely firemen regret the
unfortunate occurrence.
The members of the Ely fire de-
partment with the auto truck, ran
from the fire station ito the Capital
saloon and got water in 81 seconds
after laying five sections of hose.
Five fire fighters were on top of the
Northern hotel and had water on in
one and three-quarters minutes
The dance at the Bio hall and the
display of fireworks at night marked
the close of a successful celebration.
