rest their feet, make their shoes COM
Portable and walking easy Those
who use Aliens Foot-Ease have solv-

out he found the money had disap-
peared. He did not know where the
money went to. Another witness

gave the boy dollar to get the meat
with. That she went into the market
and bought more meat, as Freedman
had testified, and that she paid for il
with the dollar the boy had and IA
cents from her pocket. She then went
to shoe store and bought the boy
some shoes. She had to go home to
get the money to pay for them. She
denied taking the money and said she
did not even see it Several witness
es testified to the good character OF
the woman, who is married and has
three children.

STOLE FROM FATHER
TO HAVE GOOD TIME
Omer Lussier Bound Over to
the Superior Court In
$500 Bonds
Father Thought He Needed Restraint
From Path He Was Following

Omer Lussier, II years old next
month, pleaded guilty in city court
Monday morning to stealing 1922 be-
longing to his father. He admitted
also that he spent the money having
good time in Worcester and Web
ster. He disappeared IL weeks ago
and had only worked three days in
that time,
The boys father, Alphonse Lussier,
Battey street, told the court that he
had the money locked in bureau
drawer. One Friday evening some
weeks ago he said he was going to
church and the son said he was also
going. The boy didn't go and did not
come home that night. The next day
it was found that the bureau drawer
had been pried open and the money
stolen. II knew them" said Mr.. Lus-
sier, 'that he had taken the money
and run away"
According to the father it was not
the first time that the son had stolen
money from him. He said that it was
bad enough to have his son steal from
him, but the way he had started he
was afraid he would steal from others
which would be worse. He thought
that the boy ought to be sent some
where where he could receive refor-
matory treatment.
When Omer was asked if he had
anything to say he hung his head. He
was then bound over to the superior
court. The next criminal term is in
October, so that the boy will have to
spend the summer at Brooklyn jail, as
he was unable to furnish a bond.

BOXING PROGRAM IS
FEATURE At MORLEYS

Three four-round boxing bouts and
three round exhibition have been ar
ranged by the management of Nor
ley's Country club as a special feature
for tonight.
Heading the program is Eddie
Hughes, welterweight champion of the
coast, and Eddie Cleveland who will
be seen in action in a three-round
exhibition. Both boys are widely
known in the west, and should give
the fans a splendid entertainment.
Hughes recently came to Phoenix
in quest of game after having met
and defeated every boy of note in his
class on the Pacific coast Eddie,
although only a youngster, has en-
gagged in 1863 ring engagements, and
of these only 16 have gone against
him. He has yet to hear the fateful
ten counted over him. He is anxious
to meet any boys of his poundage in
the country, and just to get a good
start has agreed to sign up with any
152-pound boy whom the promoters
might select
o Other events on the program include
a four round engagement between
Young Herrera and Rufus the Second
at 10 pounds; Battling Sam and Kid
Mundo, four rounds at 122 pounds,
and Rusty Ling and Lanky Jean, four
rounds at 70 pounds.

COYOTES HOPE To
RESUME FOOTBALL
BATTLES SATURDAY

After an enforced vacation Of two
weeks due to its inability to secure
a game the Coyote football team win
get into action again next Saturday
II present plans do not miscarry
Every effort Is now being made to
secure a game with either Bisbee high
or Douglas high, to be played either
at one Of those cities or in Phoenix.
Starting the season with prospects
Of one of the best schedules in history,
the team has already lost two dates
with Indications that at least one other
will go by untitled before the season
closes.
Members Of the team, however, are
not discouraged because of these set
backs and are practicing hard each
day in preparation for the big games
Of the season, scheduled for the latter
part of this month.
A week from Saturday the strong
Tucson high team will come to Phoe-
nix for what is expected to be the
biggest and most holly contested grid
iron battle of the year. on the fol-
lowing Thursday the Indians and
Coyotes will meet in the annual
Thanksgiving day game on the new
high school football field.
Although numerous efforts have
been made to schedule q game with
come coast team this season. there
seems little probability that such n
game win be played. either in this
city or on the coast. In the first place
the coast teams have full schedules
and the athletic boards of the various
schools are more or less opposed to
pOst-season games.
But in all fairness to Phoenix, Santa
Ana high should give the Coyotes a
return, game. Three years ago Phoe-
nix brought the Santa Ana team to
this city and I'm so doing. lost consid-
cradle, financially. Ever since, the
local high school athletic manage
meut has been endeavoring to secure
a return match but always their eff
forts have been failures.
Word is now being awaited from
Douglas and Bisbee in regards to a
game for Saturday. The local man
agemcnt Is so anxious TO secure the
game that IT has agreed to play either
On one of those cities or in Phoenix.
II is believed, however, that should
one Of the teams have an open date,
II would prefer to play the game at

HARRIS CASE SET;
BOOKS Of OFFICE
SUBJECT Of TALK
Reference to the books in the adult

Reference to the books in the adult
ant generals office by w. E. Ryan,
counsel for Governor Thomas E.
Campbell in the injunction proceed
ings brought against him by Charles
w. Harris, caused a sensation in court
yesterday. The matter came up when
Judge Frank H. Lyman set the case
for trial on it's merits for Nov. II.
Ryan, who has had access to the
books of the adjutant generals office
by the ruling of the court, charged
that certain ledger accounts were
missing.
He made the assertion that, not
withstanding prior statement by Col.
Harris to the contrary, he had wit
nesses who would swear that the
books in the adjutant generals Of
flee did show ledger accounts with
the different companies of national
guards as to the actual use of portions
of the $50 per month statutory allow
ance to the companies-and that the
books so far turned over by Harris
had no such account.
In his answer to Ryan, Spencer B.
Pugh, representing Harris. said that
the loose leaf system was used and
that the Ieaves were probably taken
out of the ledger as Harris considered
the National Guard out of existence
and that particular matter of business
closed.
"A part of the public record just the
same" interposed the court.

leaves in all probability were around

FOUR INJURED

At ROCK CAMP
Foreman Huntington May
Die = Others In Serious
Condition-Shot Fails To
Explode-Men Return

AS a result of an explosion at the
rock camp of the state highway de-
partment two miles west of the Tempe
bridge yesterday evening, four men
were badly injured, one or two of them
perhaps fatally. The men were F. NJ.
Marlowe, G. G. Huntington, F. D. An

who was foreman and also powderman
just at quitting time, as the force was
leaving, touched off two shots that had
been put inso some rock. The holes
were about seven feet deep. 1t was in

already scanned and cracked
What happened is related by Rose
berry who was elevator man. He said
that when the shots were touched off

two explosions were heard and he and
three others went back to see the re-
suit of the explosion, the rest of the
force going on to the camp. Just as
they reached a point over the place
where the shots had been placed there
was another explosion.
The injuries to the men resulted
chiefly from flying rock. They were
riddled from knee to the tops of their
heads and some of them were thrown
down by the force of the explosion.
Huntington seemed also to be suffering
from an inhalation of hot gas, for
when other members of the force came
up he complained of his mouth burn
ing.
Rushed to Hospital
The men were hurried to ST. Joseph S
hospital on a state truck and Drs
Sweek, Martin and Brockway were
called and were working over the men
last night. 1t was at first reported
that three of them were likely to die
and later that all were probably out Of
danger except Huntington and Mar
lowe. Still later it was thought thai

Marlowe's case was regarded as fal

which he had undergone as a service
man in France. Roseberry's theory o
the explosion, and it is. accepted as
reasonable one, Is that the two first ex
