All the Bottles Were Empty

All the bottles which the officers found scattered about in Carney's S last Tuesday night, were empty. By their fables, these bottles laid claim to having once contained live spirits. The crowd found in the one time saloon gave evidence of having recently made free with the contents of such bottles. Justice Twitty, Constable McDougall and Marshal Burns were the officers who conducted the raid. Carney was arrestea by the city on charge of being intoxicated. The case was to have been tried at eleven o'clock Wednesday but at that hour ardent spirits, or other causes, had MT. Carney flat on his back in bed. If the flesh and the spirit(s) are will ing, the case will be tried today.

RIVER SCOUTS HAVE
 NARROW ESCAPE

Charles Russel and his two as- sistant scouts who as announced in last weeks News, attempted to descend the Colorado river from Bright Angel trail, narrow ly escaped with their lives when attempting to descend the rapids. From Bright Angel trail it is but a few miles down stream to a course of extremely dangerous, rapids. While attempting to run these, the men lost their boat and felt themselves fortunate in reaching the bank with their lives. ...-..
 Their boat remained afoat and little injured, held fast to some rocks far out in the stream, by the force of the water. The men then tried to rescue the boat which contained all of their SUD- plies. They passed a rope to it but so great was the force of the water that the rope snapped be- fore appreciably affecting the boat. The two tenderfeet, at this point, seem to have stam- peded. They began a climb out of the Canyon over a course neverbefore considered accessible and succeeded at last, footsore and near starving, in getting out of the Canyon.
 Russel at last abandoned the boat and set out for the rim. He was much concerned over the safety of his two companions and endeavored to follow them but could not keep their trail. He arrived at the Rim almost twen- |ty-four. hours later.- hamng gone forty-eight hours without food or any real rest.
 A rescue party returned to the boat to save it's valuable cargo. It is not known how soon the trip will be continued.

WHAT ABOUT II,
 COUNTY OFFICERS?

People in Williams are beginning to wonder if the county officers do not intend to make any prosecu- tions for the importation of the two trunk fulls of liquor which were shipped into Williams nearly two weeks ago. Some say politics, some say there is leak somewhere in the county forces at Flagstaff. In any event, if the county officers do not intend to attempt any prosecu- tions in the case, they should return the liquor to Williams in order to give the town officers a chance to try the case.
 What about it, County officers?

AN INTERESTING TRIP

A number of Williams people had most interesting trip to the Grand Canyon, recently. MT. and Mrs. Gold and little daughter, Myra, Miss Minna Missing and Miss Elsie Hayes left by machine, Friday morning for Bass Camp. MT. w. w. Bass had. planned to take them down his trail, at the foot of which they were to meet the River Scouts and share in the motion pictures.
 But man proposes and God dis poses. After climbing few trees en route, the machine arrived in the general vicinity of Bass Camp, only to lose its way, leave the splen did automobile road that leads to the camp, and come to standstill, caught on a rock.
 Meanwhile, in the depths of the Canyon, the boat of the river scouts was caught on another rock. How ever, the party from Williams fn- ally reached Bass Camp, heartily welcomed by their always interest ing host. The view of the Canyon from this point is particularly fine. A trip down the easy trail to the Cliff Dwellings. five hundred feet below the Rim, was delightful ex- perienee, and .aoftened the regret over altered plans. MT. Bass and his close and scientific knowledge of the Ga4yon add greatly to the pleasure of a trip there.
 The. tale of the River Scouts is told in another column. The party from Williams, likewise, returned in safety, and are warmly advising their friends to visit Bass Camp.

ANOTHER RABBITT HUNT
 SCHEDULED, 50 THEY SAY

These fine days seem to be warm ing the hearts and courage of the members of the Rabbit Club, for it is announced that they are going to sally forth and hunt the shy bunny again next Sunday. It is expected that some fifteen gun men-four or five auto loads-will participate in the hunt.
 Somebody is going to have to cook dinner. The old squad de clares that none of them will be found on the culinary squad but the other members talk differently. They see no need of changing cooks when the broth is fine, and they propose to do the shooting that will secure the same chefs. But any, way some one is going to cook that dinner and the dinner is going to be fit for the most epieurean taste-- after the appetite has. been sharpr ened by chasing the scurrying bunnies thru miles of sage brush.
 We would like to have write up of the hunt from one of the hunters, but don't want it to turn out llke the write-up of the sump- tuous venison feed which some claim the club enjoyed g short time
