PEACE OFFICER DOES
TWO JOBS ON ONE TRIP

On complaint of M. D. Campbell, Ce-
Gil Gillett and Jess Tauten, of the town
of Rusk, were arrested by Undersher-
iff Miller, charged with taking a calf
belonging to Campbell. In municipal
court Wednesday they entered a plea
of not guilty and the case was adj
journed until Sept. 19, the defendants
giving bonds in the sum of 5000 The
calf was valued at $15 and the offense
is alleged to have taken place on Sun
day last.
On the trip to arrest the defendants,
the undersheriff saved time and mile
age by calling upon John Sepka, in the
same town, and confiscating still
found on his premises. He gave Sep
ka notice to appear in court later and
answer to a charge of manufacturing
''moonshine.' A frost had touched
Sepka's corn and the officer allowed
him time to take care of his crop be-
fore appearing in court.

HAWKINS LOSES
SECOND TIME
Baseball Team Comes Full of
Confidence, But Are
Shut Out

Fortified in the belief that they had
great pitcher in Stegg, from Chi.
cago, and with revenge in their hearts
the Hawkins baseball team, accom-
panied by large number of rooters
came down to Ladysmith Sunday to
wipe out the sting of bitter defeat at
the hands of the Ladysmith team the
Sunday before.
Although Stegg struck out thirteen
men, he did not measure up to the
high qualifications which he was sup
posed to possess, and this fact, corl-
pied with the commission of six er-
rors made by himself and his team
mates. lost the game to a better team.
The score was z to nothing.
Humber, Ladysmith's pitcher, was
in fine spirits and played in fine form
The visitors made but three hits off
his delivery, while the locals made ten
hits off Stegg. Praise is due the good
work of j. Hayden, who caught Hum
ber He had recently been sick and
he went into the game soft but in
spite of these handicaps he played a
star game, but his ungloved hand was
swollen to twice it's usual size at the
end of the contest

RE-ASSESSMENT
FOR MURRY TOWN
Land Company Wins Before
Tax Commission. Officers
Appointed

The town of Murry is to be re-as-
sessed. The state tax commission
reached this decision early in the
week and notified Town Chairman p.
M. Brown, the American immigration
Co. and the attorneys in the matter.
July 27 Judge Rosa, Of the commits
sion, held hearing at the court house
in Ladysmith on complaint of the
American immigration Co., which
company owns large tracts of land
in Murry. The land company claimed
their lands were assessed too high and
unequally as compared to some other
lands. They had complained in other
years, but had not gone to the extrem-
ity of formally asking for a re-assess-
ment of the town.
In making it's decision, the commits
sion appointed Joe Oswald, of Tony,
to assess the town, and appointed Sc
yer Serley, of Murry, Clarence JOY
ner, of Atlanta, and G. w. Staples, of
Osceola, board to review the work
of Assessor Oswald and to hear any
protests.
The re-assessment will add consid-
cradle expense to the town. H. f.
Cotton has been the assessor of the
town of Murry for number of
years

WILD RIDE ENDS
in BAD ACCIDENT
Conflicting Stories of Mishap
Stirs Weyerhaeuser People
to Action

There was some excitement at Wey-
erhaeuser Saturday night when two
Weyerhaeuser girls, Bernice Mozart
and Beryl Funk, each 10 years of age,
reported that they had been mistreated
by two boys while on their way to a
dance.
They said they were on their way
to Ellison's dance pavilion, short
distance out from the village, when
an automobile containing Clyde Coop
er and Henry Olson, of Bruce, over
took them and asked them to ride.
They got in the car and were taken
out to the pavilion which they found
had not yet been lighted 1t was then
suggested that they all go to Getchels
pavilion at Island Lake, but the boys
said they did not know the way,
though they volunteered to go if the
girls would show them the way there.
Young Cooper was i'll the drivers
seat, feeding the gas, and Bernice Nc
Cart steered the car. Going down the
hill near the Norwegian" crossing,
Just east of Weyerhaeuser, the car, a
Baby Grand Chevrolet, attained a
high rate of speed, said to be fifty
miles an hour. The car ran off the
road and into a swamp, striking some
stumps. Beryl Funk jumped from
the car as it struck the ditch, but Miss
McCart was thrown through the wind
shield and was badly cut. The boys
were not much hurt. The car was bad
ly wrecked. Besides the smashing of
the windshield, a front wheel was torn
off and the bumper was buried in the
ground A Dallas car came along and
took the girls back to Weyerhaeuser
where the girls told their story A
doctor was called from Bruce to treat
the wounds of the Mozart girl 1t
was found that the glass of the wind
shield had cut an artery in the girls S
head and that there had been a con-
siderable loss of blood.
The boys, fearing the consequences
of their wild ride started to walk to
Bruce Sam Funk and Henry Mozart,
fathers of the girls, hired a car and
went after the boys, overtaking- them
near Apollonia. They took the boys
back to Weyerhaeuser and they were
kept over night there, but were re-
leased on promising to pay the doc
tors bill, it is said. The boys story
of the ride differed very materially
from the first story told by the girls
which excited the populace of the vii
lage, especially the girls fathers. Fur
ther developments, it is said, are inti-
mated by the boys, because of the
rough treatment received at the hands
of the men.
