Hurley Loses to Bessemer.

The Hurley Legion football team
was defeated in the game with
Bessemer Sunday in a hard fought
contest. Bessemer made two
touchdowns and kicked goal both
times, netting them II points,
while the locals failed to register.
Too much Gotta spelled defeat
for Hurley. The Bessemer half
back. one of the best in the game
in this neck of the woods, was re-
sponsible for the two touchdowns
made by Bessemer. After about
five minutes of play in the first
quarter Gotta grabbed the ball and
ran IS yards for a touchdown. In
the second quarter he received a
forward pass and again carried the
ball over the goal line. Goal was
kicked both times.
Hurley put up strong game and
the local backs tore through the
enemy line for good gains fire.

distance of their goal the stone wall

Hurley has had a city football team
and that Sundays contest was but
the second game this season the
locals put up a good game against
Bessemer, where football has been
a regular sport diet for several
years
The two teams lined up as follows

A stranger in America cannot fail
to notice among the people a peculiar
graciOusness in their gift for friend
ship. 1t is one of the decorations of
life, so to speak, and the close OBJ
server does not take it TO be more.
To be good friend is a mark Of
sterling quality. but to be a particu-
larry gracious friend is to add TO that
no more than a charming elegance.
Nevertheless, this gracious warmth Is
a rare thing, and nowhere is it so no
tably or so surely to be found as in
an American, says John Drinkwster in
Golfers Weekly. And / do not think
that 1t is fanciful to suggest that this
comes about in no small degree from

The Hurley Legion eleven had
game scheduled with Ironwood for
tomorrow but for some reason or
other Ironwood cancelled the game.
1t was raw deal handed the Hurley
eleven and the boys are very much
peeved over it. The game had been
regularly scheduled and the action
of the Ironwood team in cancelling
the game was inexcusable. 1t
looks as though they are afraid to
60 up against the local boys. And
all this after Hurley so graciously
agreed to play Ironwood two weeks
ago after Park Falls had cancelled.
1t was very usportsmanlike to say
the least, but no more than can be
expected at any time from Iron
wood.
The local Legion team was put
out when it was learned that Iron
wood had cancelled the game for
tomorrow and was compelled to
endeavor to get some other team to
take Ironwood' 5 place. Yesterday
morning Manager L. J. Noldin was
notified that the Bayfield, city team
would come to Hurley tomorrow.
Local fans will thus have the OPP
portunity of seeing a football game
tomorrow even though Ironwood
threw hooks into the schedule. The
game will be played at the Hurley
ball park starting at $50 O, clock.
Bayfield, is said to have a strong
team and one that will give the
locals good run.

USE IRON HAND
Harding Considers Martial Law
for West Virginia.
Federal Troops VIII Put Down
Miners Revolt.

Washington. Aug. 30.-Federal ac-
ton may be taken in the West Virginia
mine situation before night, it was i'm
dicated at the White House. The ma
ture of the possible action was not re-
vealed, tho it was said President Hard
ing and responsible officials of the
war department were awaiting reports
from an investigation already under
way.
President Harding has declined to
accede to the request of John L.
Lewis. president of the United Mine
between miners and operators to
thrash out the West Virginia coal
troubles.
While the text of the presidents
reply to Mr.. Lewis was not made
public, it was said the president had
informed Mr.. Lewis, he saw no neces-
sity for conference inasmuch as a
special senate committee would meet
at Williamson, W. Va, on September
19 to hear further testimony.
Use the ''Iron Hand"
The administration is ready to deal
vigorously with the West Virginia stu
alton and Secretary of War Weeks
let it be known that if federal troops
are dispatched to the disordered
regions, they will rule with a iron
hand. 1T will be no child's play" the
secretary SAID.
The report of General Bandholtz,
who went into West Virginia as the
personal representative of the presf-
dent. is understood to have convinced
the administration leaders that If dis
orders broke out anew. that federal in
tervention would probably be neces-
sary. General Bandholtz criticized the
state administration of West Virginia
and charged that it had made only
feeble efforts to prevent trouble.
Martial Law First.
General Bandholtz in his report IN
dicates that not only is the situation
in West Virginia out of the hands OF
the state authorities, but that the
leaders of the miners have little con-
troll over the men in the present situ-
alton, which is regarded as insurgent.
Maj. Gen. George E. Reed, COM
manding the Fifth army corps, with
headquarters at Fort Benjamin Har-
rison, Ind, is still holding troops
ready to move into West Virginia
upon a moments notice if the presi-
dent decides that such action is nec-
essary.
The secretary of war said martial
law would undoubtedly precede the
dispatch of troops to West Virginia.
The proclamation .of martial law,
drawn last May when the situation
was threatening, is still available and
can be used Immediately, the secre-
tary said.

Ohio Millionaire Dupe Plans to

Latest Loot Discovery Being
Held by WorthingtOn.

Chicago, Aug. 30.-A cache believed
to contain millions of dollars in Sc
curities and loot of the Charles w.
French $5o.o00,000 "swindle trust" !"
was located today in the plundered
vaults of the Security Trust company.
This was learned during an investi-
cation of the 1924, 900 holdup there
Sunday night.
A huge safe deposit box, believed
crammed with bonds and securities, is
held by Honest John" c. Worthing-
ton, chief aide to French, under the
name of John Whitehouse.
A court order for search of the
Worthington cache was issued this
afternoon by Federal Judge Kenesaw
M. Landis. The order was asked by
the Central Trust company, recently
appointed receiver for one of Worth
ington's defunct security companies.
Discovery of the cache was veri-
fled by w. P. Dickinson, vice president
of the vault company. He declared
the box had not been investigated
by federal agents.
TT may contain billions" said Dick
inson. Honest John came in here
almost every afternoon with a big
suit case and made deposits"
Police declared the vault might con-
tain securities equal to the SIS 900, 900
worth found recently in Cleveland.
Coincident with the discovery of
the cache, William Simpson, Canton,
O., attorney. arrived here with a
promise that Zebulon w. Davis, the
Ohio millionaire implicated in the
bands activities, would make a "clean
breast of his dealings. Davis's state
ment. federal agents said, would be the
last link" in the governments case
against French and his associates.
Davis Makes "Clean Breast"
Simpson conferred for several hours
with Assistant United States Attorney
John v. Clinnin, head of the "swindle"'
probe. Simpson declared Davis had
lost $1,000,00O thru deals with the
band The Cleveland millionaire, he
said, is i'll at present but will come
here as soon as he RECEIVERS.
According to Simpson. Davis has
been a tool of French for a period
covering eighteen years. The million
aire first came under French's domi-
nation in 1903 when he invested $780,
900 in a French scheme. Since then,
Simpson averred, Davis has made ad-
iitional payments in the hope of re-
covering the previous loss.

of dubious financial deals attributed
to Charles W. French and his so-called
band of $50, 100000 swindlers, is ex-
pected to give the complete history of
his fiscal affairs to federal officials.
He expected to tell an amazing story
of feyerish finance.
Worthington, who has been in Jail
since his indictment and arrest several
weeks ago, is said to have volunteered
to make a statement to John V. Clin-
min, assistant United States district at
torney. Clinnin accepted the offer.

Out of 100 persons passing along a
street, including men, women, boys
and girls, only eight persons walked
properly. Doctor Haight said, meaning
that 90 per cent of Topekans prob

Shoes have much to do with walk

hardly possible to walk right, and that
is why feet are thrown sideways in
making steps. Therse is where the
assistance. of the shoe dealer is needed.
When DIR. Haight finds shoes in shops
he thinks are the proper kind he will
ask the dealer TO display them in his
window as the approved kind. A num-
