PURCHASE DEFEATED
 BY VOTE 0F 112 ID s
Large Vote Cast Price Con- sidered Too High Addi- tional Room Provided

The result of the advisory election held at the school aud itorium, last Saturday night, to pass upon the advisability of purchasing the Amundsen pro- perty for school purposes for the sum of $6,O0O, was a decis- i've defeat of the proposition.
 A great deal of interest was manifested in the election and 146 votes were cast during the evening. Of these, 112 were against the purchase, 33 for it. One blank ballot was found in the ballot box.
 The chief objection raised to the price which was held to be too high in consideration of the amount of remodeling that would be necessary in order to put the building into shape for school purposes.
 The question of purchase having been settled, the school board will take up the matter of providing more school room and will fix up one of the base ment rooms for the use of the surplus grades. The children to be accommodated are in the Mexican primary.

BUGGELN-BABBITT

A happy event was the mar riage of Miss Edna Buggeln to MT. Edwin Rabbit on Wednes- day morning, August thirtieth, at 9:30 o'clock.
 The nuptials were celebrat- ed in the Catholic church of Williams with low mass con- ducted by Father Rosetti assist ed by Father Houtsman. The music was in charge of Miss Le Grand of Los Angeles, a school friend of the Buggeln sisters.
 The bride, attired in a mod ish going-away gown of Alice blue silk was led to the altar by her father, followed by her mother and sister. Here she was met by the groom who was attended by his brother, MT. Raymond Babbitt. Her only sister, Mrs. Edwin Johnson, acted as matron of honor.
 At the close of the ceremony the bridal party together with their immediate families, re- paired to the Fray Marcos ho- tel where a SumptuouS break fast awaited them, covers be- ing laid for eighteen. The brides cake, beautifully deco rated, and the profusion and elegance of the floral adorn- ments constituted the chief fea- lures of the occasion.
 The happy pair amidst show CTS of rice and old shoes, de. parted in their auto for a short honeymoon. Where? Echo answers: "Where?"
 The bride is the younger daughter of MT. and Mrs. Mar. tin Buggeln of Williams. The groom is the son of MT. Davic Babbitt, of Flagstaff. Thu: are two of the oldest anc wealthiest families of the vicin ity united by this marriage.

Babbitt-Polson Company is in receipt of a letter from the Gallup-American Coal Com pany which states that they can not say how soon shipments of domestic coal will be resumed, and it is possible that three or four months will pass before conditions in the mines will inn prove enough to assure ship ments of this grade of coal.
 A coal Company in Albu- ouerque writes that commer- cial shipments have been ra- ther demoralized by the short age of coal tho they may be able to ship a carload of coal to Williams soon.

FIFTH ANNUAL REGIS.
 TERED TOURNAMENT

The Fifth Annual Registered Tournament held by the Will Hams Gun Club last Sunday was a complete success in every way. The sky was overcast nearly all day and two or three of the clouds let loose a sprink- ling of rain and gusts of winds at times. This, however, did not bother the real shooters as the scores will prove. H. E. Po- ton, of San Francisco, (profes- sionaD was high gun with a total of 197 out of 200. Among the amatuers, R. P. DeMund from Phoenix was high with 1922, B. Heilman, 182, second, and w. E. Mullen, 18O, third.
 There were twenty contest ants started at 9:30 am. and the sharp report of the diffe1S ent guns could be heard all day until 4 80 D. m. at which time, the secretary, in adding up the scores, etc., found that during the two days shooting, five thousand one hundred and twenty-five targets had been thrown from the trap.
 At the close of the tourna- ment, some of the local boys hied themselves across the field and began shooting doves, brig ing in a good round number de- noting the factt hat their shoul- ders were not sore. It was not iced, however, that one of them had badly skined nose which caused some wondering.
 Anyone and everyone pre- sent seemed to have a good time and the shooters from out of town, as we'll as the local gun men, "whooped her up" when the officials asked them all to be present at the next years shoot.
 It has been planned to hold three registered tournaments next year in Northern Arizona. Following are the scores made August 25 and 26th.

Will Play kingman

Ed Johnson, manager of the baseball team, received a tele- gram from Ray Robinson, sec retary of the Kingman Ball Club, asking the local team to play in Kingman on Sunday and Monday. As all expenses will be paid by the Kingman club this is quite a compliment to the Williams team. There is little doubt that the King man fans will have tn pleasure of seeing some honest-to-good- ness ball in their city next Sun day and possibly on Lasor Day also.

PROCLAMATION
 OF LABOR DAY

Following the custom which sets aside the first Monday of each September, as a day upon which Labor may be commem- orated by means of parades, meetings, festivals and other manifestations of respect and honor to it's dignity and accom- plishments for the benefit and advancement of mankind:
 I, Thomas E. Campbell, Gov ernor of Arizona, under the au- thority in me thus reposed, do hereby declare and proclaim as a legal holiday, Monday. September the third, nineteen seventeen, to be duly celebrat- ed as aforetime.
 In this most critical hour in the history of the United States and the civilized world, the hopes and fears of humanity center inevitably upon the at titude of the forces of Labor to- ward the achievement of that highest standard of efficiency, without which Victory is inn possible.
 Therefore, this day affords a most fitting and timely oppor- tunity to take stock of the re- sources of brain and hand, to consider unselfishly how best we can substantially evidence our unfailing support to those who will, at the very time, be mobilized to do battle for those principles of liberty, equality and fraternity which have bless ed American Labor and borne it upward to its present mighty status.
 Arizona's responsibility to d. her part in the present exigen cy lies equally upon ever! member of our citizenship Shall we not bury such differ ences as molest our present in dustrial progress, upon whicl so vitally depends the success of the conflict, straining our ev cry nerve and sinew, withou thought of self. profit or pro paganda, until we shall hay won that to which we strive worldwide democracy.

RED LAKE BEAUTIFUL DIES BENEATH WHEE[S

Aurullia Ruiz, a Mexican a. bout 30 years of age, was run over and instantly killed by the midnight freight train Wednes- day. Ruiz was evidently at tempting to beat his way to Gallup, New Mexico and had boarded the train just before it started east.
 None of the train crew saw the man get on the train as they were busy getting water and fuel. Conductor O'Brien gave the signal to go ahead and the train was just moving when he felt the caboose go over some thing rough and instantly flag ed the engineer to stop. Inves- tigation resulted in the finding of the body of the man, his right leg badly crushed and severed from the trunk. The man was lying on the north side of the track and the severed leg inside the track. Death had occurred instantly. From the condition of the cinders along the track, Ruiz had tried to ride on the rods of the car next the caboose and when he fell was dragged about a car length.
 The coroners jury rendered a verdict of accidental death and completely exonerated the San ta Fe and any employees from blame.
 Ruiz was day laborer and had worked for the Santa Fe at
 Horse Gap, Section 58, until three or four days ago. He was
 identified by letters in his pock'
 cts and by Mexicans who haC seen him in town the day be.
 fore the accident.
 From the letters it was learn. ed that Ruiz had a wife anc children in Gallup, New Mex ico. One of the letters was iron his wife, dated August 9, stat ing that they had lost son, ev idently small boy, that week and she wished very much tha she could be with him wher'
 he was working. She was yer. anxious to leave Gallup. It ap
 pears that the Santa Fe haC sent her a pass to use in comin, here but thru a mistake in tn address it had not reache'
 her. This letter was probabl. the cause of the mans attempt ing to beat his way to Gallup.
 There was not cent of mon , ey in the mans possession. Al that he had besides the cloth ing he wore was an extra pal of shoes and an Ingersoll dolla : watch. The latter was still gc ing when found. The shoe
 were probably the cause of tn - caboose jarring on the track a
 they had been run over.

Recently much has been heard about the agricultural pros poets of Red Lake and vicinity, but this region still awaits the time when it's scenic features will be portrayed. Perhaps the portrayal of the beauty of this region is a task which the Red Lake Woman's Club might do itself, for certainly it's members were very fortunate in exper- fencing this beauty and roman tic charm at the meeting last Saturday, at the home of Mrs. Daniel Mclean.
 Situated on the reservoir which, filled, looks like a mountain lake, the house itself reminds one of a Swiss chalet, but the much vaunted glory of an Alpine day is but slight in comparison with the Arizona sunshine which glorified the day. Two wide windows ad- mitted this wonder in the living room and the whole house was fittingly decorated with daisies sunfowers, wild geraniums and the like.
 The attendance was large, there being present, Mrs. Har- ny Boulin, Mrs. Will Basham. Mrs. Betty Murphy, Mrs. Carl Kinds, Mrs. Claude B. Hume Mrs. Ernest Kincannon, Mrs Boiett, Mrs. Boiett, Jr. and Mrs Walter F. Thomasson. The next meeting of the club will be Saturday, the eighth of Sep tember, at the home of Mrs. w F. Thomasson:
