CASE OF
 N0TOR|ETY |S
 SETTLEDHERE

A suit which has occupied much of the time of the court of Pima county, has figured somewhat in road politics in that county and has frequently figured in the campaign for the re- call of MT. Estill, one of the members of the board of supervisors of Pima county, found it's way to the supreme court yesterday. Suit was brought by William Bayly of Los Angeles against the Consolidated Min ing company and W. R. Ramsdell and Joe D. Dotson as guarantors for the recovery of the value of notes amounting to $67,500 with ten per cent attorneys fees. Judgment was given the plaintiff and from that or der the mining company and the guarantors appealed.
 The facts as gathered from the papers are that the mining company was the owner of 10000 shares of the stock of the Compania Minero de l Casados $. A, in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. The mining company and the guarantors entered into an agree ment with Bayly by which the latter was to furnish the company $75,00O | in stated installments and that the following sums were furnished, in each case Q note being given for the amount with Ramsdell and Dotson as endorsers: Octorber, 1911, $35,G00; January, 1912, s10,000; March, 1912 | $1O,O00; July, 1912. s7.500, and later i the same year S4.000. The balance of the amount, 7,500 under the agree ment was never paid
 Also under the agreement the com pany and the guarantors were to de- posit with the First National Bank of Los Angeles the 10000 shares of | the stock of the Compania Minero de Casados. But that was never done i for the reason that the local attor- neys of the company informed the de- fendants that under the laws of the republic of Mexico the stock would have to be physically present al meetings of the stockholders of the company which were required to be held twice a year in Mexico.
 The various demurrers of the de- fendants having been overruled they filled counter suit against the plaintiff alleging that the defendants had been damaged in the sum of S100,000 by his failure to pay the last 1 s7,500 and in consequence of that failure the company was obliged tC suspend operations.
 It was held by the court that the plaintiff had complied with the agree ment while the defendants in failing to deposit the stock had neglected to do so.
 The court instead of allowing at torney's fees in the sum of 10 pel cent, allowed only $2,100.

Alice Joyce-Harry Morey at Hip

Alice Joyce Harry Mercy at Hip
 If you were journeying across the
 country and stopped at a strange ho-
 tel and in the dead of the night half drunken man with brute strength
 should enter your room thinking it
 one to which he had been invited by a
 girl of the dance hall below, could
 you realize the position in which the
 girl played by Alice Joyce in Her Se-
 cret" was placed? She was so fright
 ened she had no power of resistance and the whole course of her life was changed.
 Call it fate or the law of compensa-
 tion what you will none dare deny
 that some power pays us back measure for measure for the sins we do. A man in an hour of shame wronged a ! woman. She passed out of his life. He forgot, but the slow grind of fate | brought it all back. He married and was so happy that when the seeds of | the sin he had planted sprang up in his home, it dealt him greater blow than loss of wealth or position, per- l haps, even death. Fate did not ask his | life, his money or his position. Did | not make him suffer in health, but how he paid, for fates challenge came l with an overwhelming force of hn avalanche in the tremendous climax of Her Secret" playing at the Hip 1 today.
 With it will be seen a good comedy and Pathe News Reel.

At St. James church Sunday evening a congregation that was greater than the seating capacity of the edihce at- tended the special services to com memorate the redecoration of the in- terior, a work that was begun late in January and has been completed but a few days.
 A choir sang the cantata The Seven Words. The sermons were preached by Rev. John F. Quinn of Poquonock and Rev. Alferie Chartier, M. S.. Hartford.
