Bazaar Grand Success

n
|The Bazaar and chicken dinner
given at the Methodist church last
Saturday evening was one of the
most successful affairs of it's kind
ever given in Kendrick. During
the dinner hour all OF the tables
were filled and the seats along the
wall were full If hungry people
waiting their turn.
The dinner was all any hungry
soul could desile. and was served
most bountifully.
The fancy work display was very
pretty but lasted but a short time,
as the fast approaching Christmas
season was an incentive to those
who were looking tor dainty gifts,
The total receipts from the bazaar
and dinner amounted to $3.50, prob
ably the largest sum ever taken lr
at church social IN kendrick.

1t causes 10000 deaths in the
United States every year.
Over 1000 people died from tuber-

years and thousands are now sick
with the dread disease IN this state.
1t costs the United States in dol

More than 100000 persons IN

Most Of this waste could be pre-
vented.
tuberculosis menaces every COM

And yet it is durable and prevent

1t is spread largely by ignorance,
carelessness and neglect.
The National tuberculosis AS

Carnival Draw. Crowd

\ The attendance at the Prespyter-
ian carnival neld in the Presbyter-
ian church last week, was very
good. A church carnival was some
thing new IN Kendrick and it prov
ed to be highly successful, both
from social and financial point of
view.
At six O'Clock a substantial lunch,
consisting Of mot dog" sandwiches,
baked beans, doughnuts, coffee, etc.,
was served.r After the eats had
been disposed of the baby show took
place. MIR. and Mrs. Fred Bailey's
baby took first in this contest. The
lunch and baby show were held IN
the basement rooms.
In the annex of the church num-
ber of attractions. such as side
shows, fortune telling, etc., we're
held. The feature of this depart
ment was the Bearded Lady, who
was none other than Terry Ellis.
He acted the part in most highly
competent manner and was said to
have been the biggest seller iE: the
carnival row.
Four clowns contributed to the
bllarlty of the evening. 1t would
MT do to mention their names a:
they are among Hendricks mos
dignified young ladies.
The proceeds from the carnlva
amounted to $82. Most of thi
was clear as the expense was no
heavy.

Community Christmas Tree

\The Methodist and Presbyterian
Sunday Schools are going to hold
a Community Christmas Tree IN the
Methodist church, Christmas Eve, at
7:3O o'clock. Tue two Sunday
Schools will give a joint program,
preparations being now under way
for the training OF the children in
their various parts.
1t is planned this year to carry out
the idea of giving rather than re-
ceiving presents. To this end an
offering will be taken for the needy
children of Europe, and presents of
toys and chlldren's clothing Will be
received at the tree and sent to the
ChiIdren's Home at Lewiston.
Everyone is cordially invited to
attend, as 1t is a community tree
and is intended for everybody.
The idea OF Community Christ
mas tree, by the united efforts of
both local churches, ought to meet
with the approval OF everyone. 1t
would be fine thing if it might be
made an annual event. Heretofore
each church has had Its own tree
and the division of effort natural ly
limited the possibilities of making
the trees as worth while as they
might have been. Under the CO.
operative plan the Christmas tree
ought to be an event of interest tc
everyone.

elected but he wouldn't accept as he
expects to leave soon. Mr.. Wilson
declined the nomination but re-
ceived II votes.
After the nominations Mr.. Fry
made short talk in which he stated
that if the people of the district
wanted low road taxes he would ad
wise them not to vote for him. HI

the Tucson Citizen. who had assisted Behoteguy and Hansen in the prepara- tions for the dinner, presented to MT. Spear a desk clock as the gift in com mon of the news writers of the city. The editor accepted the gift in a few words of appreciation, and. what was infinitely better than the best of speeches, spun few of the yarns that have made him famous from Utah to the border.
 Among the Testimonials.
 Those who took part in congratulat- ing MT. Spear last evening were E. A. Young, city editor of The Republican,; H. F. O. Whitman, c. H. Threlkeld Ward Adams, A. P. Findley.

 Among the testimonials of apprecia- ton spoken by the diners, including a speech of 126 type written pages, which Ralph Rollins was not allowed to de- l liver, was the following: Who sits upon a broken chair. And grinds his teeth and tears his hair, While writing editorials fair?
 Why. Billy Spear! Who has a well-w pencil stub With which to guide the old Repub? | Why he whom all the world may dub
 Dean Billy Spear!" Who pounds with vim a type machine | With ne'er a space his words between, And makes his copy triply mean? | Old Billy Spear
 Who tells the rock-ribbed Democrat Just where in thunder he is at When chirping through his old felt

 Why, Billy Spear!

 TAKE OWN [|FE
Ranch Scene of Dra- matic Attempt at Double Crime-Mexican Attacks Companion, Then Turns Knife on Self

His only avenue of escape blocked by an armed man after he had mur- oefously assaulted Petrono Perez. lose Alcoio, Mexican cotton picker, turned his weapon. a long, bladed knife. lnop himself and calmly plunged the dag ger-l like instrument into his breast. The double crime was enacted on the D. H. Pierce ranch, three and one half miles west of the state fair grounds on the Christy road, about II o'clock yesterday morning.
 Both men are now in the Sisters, hospital, near death. Perez was stabbed more than half dozen times. once in the back, once in the right arm and several times in the chest The chest wounds. however, were not serious.
 Aleolo, in his attempt to cheat the law, held the weapon over his Jeff breast with the left hand while he hit it with the right Twice he drove the blade into his body, but missed the heart both times. His condition is critical
 Two other Mexicans. Fastino and Ysabel Candi1lo, are being held at the county jail for complicity in the at tempted murder and suicide. One of the two men IS alleged to have given Alcolo the knife and urged him to go after Perez" Each claims thai if wa s the other, so both are being held until the facts can be definitely established
 Trouble Over Card Game The trouble IS alleged to have started over card game, in which half a dozen Mexican were participants. 1 Witnesses alleged that Alcolo first at 1 tackled Perez from the rear. driving the long blade into the back clear mn to the hilt. He then stabbed Perez in 1 the right arm and continued the as sault by making several jabs at his victims chest.
 Alcolo then took flight, startinc across fields in a westerly direction The alarm spread rapidly. however and within few minutes, several men tock up the chase.
 An American jumped into an auto- mobile and headed Alcolo off. Alight- ing from the machine, he stood witl a&rawn revolver, awainting the an proach of the assailant. AIcolo. real. izing his predicament. stopped shorf and plunged the weapon into hi, breast
 Deputy Sheriffs Gilbert Blanco anf Evan Wilson responded to the call anf brought the wounded men to the Sis. ters' hospital here, where Alcolo f, confined under guard
 The condition of both men was re garded as serious last night.
