". P. M'COY GETS
PEN SENTENCE

w. P. TEX Mccoy, who spent sew
eral months last year in the Garfield
county jail as a prisoner from Eagle
county, on charge of bootlegging,
has been boarder with Sheriff Win
ters for the past few weeks, again at
the expense of Eagle county where a
charge of white slavery was recently
filed against him.
Tex was taken to Eagle last Tuesday
night and on Wednesday was given a
trial before Judge Bouck, found guilty
on the evidence of his wife whom he
had exploited, and several witnesses,
and sentenced to the penitentiary at
Canon City for not less than four
years and eleven months nor more than
five years.
The crime of which Mccoy was con
victed is one of the most revolving,
and it has developed during the past
few days, so the officers claim, that
the prisoner is an escaped convict from
the Washington penitentiary, where
he will probably be called upon to
serve out n long sentence after he
completes his residence at Canon City.

BERT TAYLOR DRAWS
MURDER VERDICT

A jury in the district court at Meek
er last Saturday morning returned a
verdict of murder in the second de-
gree against Bert Taylor for taking
the life of Hiram Brunts February s.,
1928, at the close of a drunken row
at the cow camp of Ed Boies on Vel
low creek, in Rio Blanco county.
District Attorney Frank Delaney Of
this city vigorously prosecuted Taylor,
who was ably defended by Merle D.
Vincent of Grand Junction.
The case consumed two weeks, and
much bad blood was engendered dur.
ing the trial. Mr.. Vincent asked leave
to file 4 motion for new trial, and
Judge Shumate granted him 35 days
to make showing along this line, and
agreed to admit the accused to bond
in the sum of $4,000, but up to this
time Taylor has not been able to fur
nish the necessary bond.

SCHOOL TEACHERS

The teachers of the local grade and
high schools are hailing H. J. Earle
of the City Drug store as good fellow
and friend of the profession, and
this feeling of appreciation is due to
the fact that he presented each with a
much appreciated article from his stock
at the beginning of the school year.

cipient of one of the new vanity cases

Large Crowd Of Interested
Spectators From Widely
Separated Regions
MANY FROMGLENW00D

The second annual Eagles Flight at
Eagle last Saturday was decided sue
cess from every point Of view, accord
ing to the verdict of all who attended
the event.
Many were in attendance from Glen
wood, and it was with considerable
difficulty and inconvenience that they
made the journey, the majority Of
those who drove through being caught
in a rain storm both going and return
ing, but they were rewarded by very
fair weather conditions at Eagle, the
coffee was hot and good, the barbe-
cued beef and ct ceteras were just to
the liking of the hungry visitors, and
the "peppy' program put on by the
Eagleites caused their guests to declare
that they felt repaid for making the
trip, even in the face of somewhat
threatening weather.
The program was started with base
ball game between Eagle and Edwards,
which was won by Eagle.
After the big barbecue feed the ro.
dec program was put on at the ball
park, and this proved very attractive
entertainment on the wild west order.
The riders in the rodeo exhibition were
Lester Hasley of Silt; Myron Sours of
Silt; Jim Dodo of Slit Doc Marshall
of Yampa; Tex Williams of Eagle;
Louie Gleiforst of Wolcott. George
Bird of Yampa; Clint Maxfield Of
Silt; Vernon Bruce of New Castle;
Walter Thompson of Eagle; Ami Hoyt
of Sheephorn; George Ferguson Of
Silt; Roy Beahler of Burns Hole, and
Joe Edwards of Eagle
The finals were ridden by Marion
Sours on Extra, Doc Marshall on Two
Story, George Bird on Dempsey, Jim
Dodo on Club, Ami Hoyt on Kid, and
Vernon Bruce on Pete. The judges
declared the winners, Dodo, first; Bird,
second, and Hoyt, third. The black
horse, 'Chub,' ridden by Dodo and
owned by Clint Anderson of Eagle,
vas awarded first money as the worst
outlaw in the bunch, and "Kid,' the
pinto horse ridden by Hoyt and owned
by VIM. Weatherly of Silt, drew sec
ond money. These horses were both of
them bad actors and the choice be.
tween them was so close that the
award was made by lot.
A Ford relay race was very inter-
esting feature of the entertainment,
there being three entries in that event.
The advertised pony potato race was
changed to a stake race, and the win
ners in this were first, Holly Brooks
on "Lady," and second, G. B. Mccoy
on "Billy"
In the pony race with boy riders
under 13, the winners were first, the
Mccoy mare, "Firefly,' ridden by
Willie Layman; second, fuckers mare,
emily" Walter Deacon, rider, and
the Brooks mare, "Lady,' ridden by
Matt Kaprinaker.
roIoWlhs the roueo stuhlS ana races
at the ball park there were number
of foot races on the streets, and
dance in the evening at Woodman
hall, to round out the festivities of the
day. Music for the day was furnished
by the Elks band of Aspen. The man
ayers declared the attendance and in
terest to be very satisfactory.

Justice Hearing Pleads Guilty
to Possession Of Liquor,
Receives Sentence
the JUDGE IS LENIEN1

In the county court Tuesday after
noon Chas. Hearing, Glenwood JUS
tice of the peace, was brought to trial
on charge of illegal possession Of in
toxicating liquor, contrary to law. The
defendant admitted his guilt, but
sought to qualify his plea by saying
that, although he made the liquor and
had it in his possession, he did not
know it was alcoholic and did not know
that in having it in his possession he
was violating the law.
The ludicrous feature of this state
ment was intensified when Hearings
attorney, Judge Noonan, stated to the
court that his client had made a guam
tity of dandelion wine and also some
home brew beer, but said he had never
sold or given any of it away, but that
he kept it on hand because, owing to
the serious condition of his health,
there were times when he was very
much in need of stimulants.
He said Mr.. Hearing had used some
of the dandelion wine, but had never
tasted the beer, and was not aware
that the alcoholic content of either
was sufficient to make its possession
violation of the law.
Night Policeman Earl Lake testified
that he found Howard Stowell, young
man IS years of age, in an Intoxicated
condition on August Z, and when he
questioned the young man as to where
he had procured the liquor that made
him drunk he said he bought bottle
Of beer from Hearing for so cents.
Stowell was called and he testified
to the purchase of the liquor which he
said came from Hearings cellar, and
said the purchase was made on one of
the trips he made to Hearings home
from the Cotton" Hearing restau-
rant with dishes.
Mr.. Hearing took the stand in his
own behalf and admitted that he made
the dandelion wine and also the beer,
and said he needed stimulants because
of the condition of his health. He
said he drank considerable of the wine,
but had never drank any of the beer
He said he was not aware that he was
acting contrary to the law. He denied
selling any beer to Stowell, but said
the young man must have stolen it
from the defendant s cellar
Judge Noonan requested that, in
case the court felt obliged to fix n
jail sentence or impose fine, the
same might be suspended, on account
of the age and physical condition of
the accused.
Judge Bell reminded the defendant
that Ignorance of the law was not suf-
ficient to excuse violation of the
law, and also stated that if the defend
ant really needed stimulants there was
legal way by which. he could secure
the same. He said he would sentence
Hearing to the minimum of 80 days in
the county Jail or to pay q fine Of
800 and costs Of suit, and he would
leave it to Hearing as to which he
would choose. Mr.. Hearing said he

Hold Joint Feed and TaIkfest
in Which Credits and Col.
IeCtions Discussed
MUCH INTEREST SHOWN

At the grade school building last
Friday evening the Lions club and the
Credit Mems association of Garfield
county met in joint session around the
banquet table and listened to an inter
esting discussion on credits and collec-
tions, by G. o. Stiles, manager of the
Pueblo Credit & Mercantile associa-
tion.
After all had partaken of an excel
lent supper, served by Yampah Re-
bekah lodge No. 10, President Noonan
of the Lions club made the customary
announcements for the Lions and then
relinquished the meeting to Carl z.
Buckles, secretary of the Garfield
County Credit Mems association, and
Mr. Buckles introduced Mr.. Stiles, the
speaker of the evening, who proved to
be live wire, and who held the inter-
est and attention of the audience while
he explained the object and purpose
of his association which is affiliated
with the state and national associa-
tions and the same is true of the Gar
field county association.
Mr.. Stiles explained that it was not
the purpose to annoy, harass or injure
men of character and integrity who
may find It difficult to pay their
debts, but rather to be helpful to both
creditor and debtor, and to protect the
M mbers of the association against
any intention whatever of paying the
same. He also paid his respects to the
short check artist in way that was
far from complimentary.
Mr.. stiles made very true state
ment concerning advertising, to the ef
feet that bullentins, programs, hotel
registers, telephone directories, fence
signs, time tables, etc., are pure bunk,
so far as advertising is concerned, and
gave some good advice which every
business man in Glenwood should have
heard. "The best place to do your
Advertising" Mr.. Stiles told his hear
ers, "is in the columns of your local
paper which goes into the homes of
your patrons and prospective patrons,
and by this medium you can carry
your message to the people You want
to reach, and the people whose patron
age you desire and must have if your
business is to prosper as it should"
Mr.. Stiles dwelt upon the mission Of
credit association along the line Of
keeping its members posted as to the
characteristics of customers and pros.
pective customers, and thus advising
them as to whether a certain fellow
was safe risk or not. The most Of
the money lost through bad accounts
is due to the lack Of knowledge on the
part of the merchant of the record Of
the man who comes to him seeking
credit. 1t is the business of the credit
association to keep the merchant in
formed along this line.
''The majority of merchants need
credit association to collect their
bills for them," said Mr.. Stiles, 'be-
cause they lack the sense and diplo-
macy to do the job themselves,an
still hold their customers. Many mer-
chants drive away n lot of business in
their efforts to collect their bills"
Mr.. Stiles urged the local merchants
to get behind Mr.. Buckles and to as
sist him in his efforts to make the as
sociation function in their own behalf.
