progress of his trial for murder, which
began November Z, 1921. before the
Versailles Assizes, and ended the fol-

dramatically in his own defense.
The backbone of his defense was that
there was an absolute lack of proof
that the "missing' women were dead.
The legal accusations against him we're
comprised in 10000 pages Of evidence,
which required three hours to read in

 The party will leave here in the Fay car and travel north by way of Gallup, Shiprock and so on to Colo rado. We are informed that MT. Fay intends to go to Great Falls, Montana from Lenver, and Elwood may go north with him. This should make a wonder full trip.

Capt. R. H. Thomas of Denver, who has been scout ing around in his aeroplane in this neighborhood for several days left on Thurs day for Winslow.
 Several Holbrook citizens took advantage of his pre- sence to make a trial of a veritable race through the clouds and declare them selves delighted with the experience.
 MT. ToelIe and MT. Ernest Hulet took a flyer Thursday. Mir. Toelle admits that he held on tightly when they banked and side-slipped.
 MT. Mac Evans also in- dulged in a sample of the sport. Knowing "Mac's" love for speed we shouldn't wonder if he were comtem- plating buying one.

ENTERTAINS FRIEND

Miss Mildred Merriman is the house guest of Miss Katherine Rees this week. Miss Merriman is visiting her aunt, Mrs. Hammond, at Keams Canyon, and came in Saturday for a stay in Holbrook at the Rees resi- dence.
 The journey in from the reservation was somewhat eventful, according to the young lady, as it was neces- sary to dispose of a couple of lively rattlesnakes that invaded the precincts of their camp on the trip to town. They were very un- timely, they should have waited until a little later and put in their appearance at the annual snake: dance.

HE NEVER PASSES UP
 A CHANCE

w. w. Franklin was in Winslow Sunday. We heard, now mind you, this is mere ly a rumor, and we give it to you for what it is worth, but we heard that immedi- ately after the rain had stopped the ball game at Winslow Sunday w. w. Franklin was seen to have Brown Capps cornered in one end of the grand stand and was talking most earn estly to him. A by stander reports that he was urging MT. Capps to buy an Over land in which to make his home runs, saying that if he was going to make a prac- tice of making two or more home runs in every game that he would find it much less strenuous to jump in an Overland roadster and scorch around the bases in style. There might be something in it at that, but we wonder what the 1922 rule book would have to say. But trust Bill to think up a good argument.

INDIAN FIRST SOLDIER 1 ACROSS THE MARINE 1
Excerpts from address by
 Turin B. Boone

The United States is the greatest trust company in the world. It administers individual and tribal Indian property worth S76l, ,0OO, GOO Last year, out of 55, Al h. dian families, 45, 195 lived in modeen houses.
 The government looks after the health of the h. dians. It operates 8l hos pitals for this purpose, and the death rate among child :ren under three years of age has been materially re- duced within the past few years. The government maintains a force of field matrons, who visit the h. dian women at their homes and give them advice and help in the preparation and serving of food; housekeep- ing; the care of the children and of the sick; and so forth.
 ThegOvernment welcomes the work of the missionaries, Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A chapters exist at many of the schools.
 Last year there were 83,- 462 citizen Indians. 196,- . 841 Indians wear modern clothes; 133, 193 speak Eng fish; and 9l, 331 read and write English,
 The Indians made a splen- did war record. 10000 h. dJanS served Tn the army and 2,000 in the navy. An Indian was the first Ameri- can soldier to cross h e Marne. Another was one of the 100 American soldiers decorated by General Persh- ing for conspicuous and un- usual bravery in action. He swan the Mouse River and the Este Canal under heavy fire, carrying pontoon cab les, and after being severely wounded, reached head quarters with an import ant message.
 The Indians have thus woven themselves into the very fabric of our national life. They are now part and parcel of ourcivilization and they may point to that loved flag, as the emblem of our liberty and theirs.
