The many friends of Harry Mckay, of the Democrata mine near Cananea, in the Warren District will be pleased to learn that after being held in the Cananea jail for several days in con- nection with the accidental killing of a little Mexican boy, he was released on bond.
 Mckay was driving down the street when little five year old Mexican boy named Fermon Hernandez, ran out in front of the car and was knock ed down. Mckay stopped the car at once and picked up the little fellow and took him to the hospital where he died from it's injuries few hours later.
 Mckay as soon as he had taken the boy to the hospital went to the police authorities and gave himself up. He was held in jail several days and was finally released on bond. The author ities are still making an investigation of the affair.

Then Douglas did the same thing, and at the beginning of the sec ond quarter it was Bisbee's ball on their 20-yard line. Morgan punted out of bounds on the 50-yard line. After making first down, two passes were incompleted. but when BiSbee was penalized for being off-side it gave the Shelter City gang their first down. Then they lost on an incompleted pass on the fourth down. McGregor went in for Pete. Morgan tried an on-side kick, but Douglas got the ball.

 5. The first word to pass over the Atlantic cables was sent on the thir- teenth day of the month.
 6. Our silver quarter is written all over with 13. Around the head of lib erty are 13 stars. The eagle bears an olive branch with 13 leaves in one claw and 13 thunderbolts in the other On his breast is a shield bearing 13 bears and from his beak is a ribbon bearing the motto with 13 letters. Each wing has 13 feathers and it takes 13 letters to spell "quarter dollar"
 '. There are 13 letters in John Paul Jones' name.
 8. There were 13 ships in the first American navy
 g. Perrys victory on Lake Erie was won on the thirteenth day of the month.
 10. The stars and stripes were raised over Fort Sumter on the thir- teenth day of the month.
 Il. General Pershing reached France on June. the thirteenth, 1917.

Then Douglas and Bisbee exchanged punts. After making two first downs, Wilson inter- cepted a forward pass.
 In the last quarter Bisbee started off with beautiful forward pass, and after trying another which was incOm. pleted, Douglas intercepted a third, and punted Bfsbee tried a pass, and Douglas caught it. and made first down.

How it all came about was this: Harry Clark was keeping time on the game, and it seemed that Bis bee had a chance to score at the end of the second half when Clark blew his whistle. Dr. Bledsoe had been watching his lngersoll Midget while the game was on, and seemed to take exception to the calling of time at the time when Clark Justify blew. And Dr. Bledsoe proceeded to tell Clark in no uncertain terms that he was wrong. A crowd quickly gathered. thinking a
