ment of his attempt to fly

assistant to Dan Cupid, is the hero
of the latest story going the rounds
in El Centre. Joseph Downing and
Mary Gibson, wished to get married
last night, but found ON their ar
rival in Ell Centre from Calexico,
that the county clerk s office was

Tor assistance, the couple went to
the county jail and told their plight
20 Nice. who agreed to help them.
Loading the young couple into an
automobile, Nice took them to the
home of Mrs. Edwina Kirk, chief
deputy county clerk, and persuad-
ed her 10 go with them to the
county clerks office and issue a
marriage. license. Mrs. Kirk readi-
ly assented, remarking she would
be the last one to stand in the way
of the young couples happiness,
and soon the important document
was issued. Then came the ques-
tion of someone to marry them.
Having gone so far. Nice refused
to be baked by any obstacle, and
called up Judge Conkling, who
agreed to come TO the courthouse
and marry the eager young people.
The judge was soon on the scene,
and performed the ceremony with
Mrs. Kirk and the deputy sheriff

COUNCIL. VOTES
FUND FOR EAST
PLAY GROUNDS
City Tax Rate Is Set at
$1.55, Same as Last
Year

Whenever the members of the FL
Centro school board decide to deed
to the city, a lot on the east side,
which is held by the board, there,
will be an appropriation of 81, 600
for converting the lot into a play
ground, including wading pool,
for the benefit of the east side kid
dies. This was assured by the ac-
tion of the city council at a special
meeting last night in voting the
necessary appropriation.
The school board has expressed q
willingness to lease the land to the
city, but does not wish to make an
outright gift, believing that the
property may increase in value, and
that such increase should become
the property of the school board
rather than the city.
The city is unable to spend money
on leased land, and as result of
the inability of the school board
and city council to get together on
the subject, the east side young
sters have been without a wading
pool all summer.
There will be no change in the
tax rate for the coming year, the
council voting to maintain the pre-
sent rate of-$1.55 per 800. 1t is
believed this rate will enable the
city to meet its current expenses
and possibly show u surplus, the
budgets for the various city depart
ments having been cut to mini
mum.
The council authorized payment
of bills amounting to $500 for
the pavement work on Fifth and
Sixth streets near the city park.

ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., Aug. 80.
Miners leaders today made final
arrangements for suspension of
work in the anthracite fields Sep
tember 1.
Following collapse of the nego-
tiations between miners and opp-
rators which came when they were
unable to agree on a 90 per cent
wage increase, the union chiefs
rushed to completion all details in
cidept to the walkout of $4,000
men.
No further orders are necessary.
The suspension. goes into effect au-
tomatically September /. unless it
is specifically called off.
The two sides, now completely
split over every point under dis
cussion, are awaiting word from
Washington.
Coolidge May Take Hand
There is 4 belief here that Pre-
sident Coolidge may summon the
two sides to Washington for a talk.
The miners believe n strike is
assured because they will not sub
NIT to arbitration and the govern
ment holds no power to force IN
agreement. The negotiations can
be resumed any time either side de-
sires, but unless there is some de-
velopment to change the present
situation things will remain as they
are.
John l.. Lewis, miner leader. is
standing strong against arbitration.
lie says the miners are suspicious
since the Wilson arbitration board
failed to live up TO labor expecta-
tiOns in 1919. The dispute must be
settled by direct negotiations, he
maintained.
Large stocks of steam coal used
in factories and industrial furnaces
are now being held by the opera
tors and these viii be distributed
IN case Of a walkOut. Domestic
coal has been bought up by indi-
viduals who feared the strike would
occur, and there is practically no
surplus now in the mines.
