pathy or indicate that the blow had
nearly bowled him over, which it must
have done. Il will take the first
train." he said calmly, and quietly left
his friends. Mysteries would not have
helped him. This is species of
gamenesS characteristic of most philo-
sophical people. A number of years
ago we were in the old Vitagraph Studio
Drew. the brother of John Drew.
Sidney will be remembered as one of
the original motion-picture comedy
stars. His son, S. Rankin Drew, was
at the same time one of the screens
early juvenile players and rapidly WIN
ming a place for himself among those
who were pioneering at the game.
In the early part of the world con-
flict. Rankin resigned from the COM
pany and enlisted in the air forces (the
Royal Air Forces, we believe). Stardom
at the time was just around the corner,
but the youth chose the mightier
drama. The romance OF the skies and
battles above the clouds impelled him
as it did many other young fellows 10
offer their services to whatever coun-
tries would accept them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Drew were engaged at
this period in producing domestic
comedies, he as the husband and she
as the wife. Rankin had long since
left for the front. On this particular
day Sidney had just stepped from the
"set" after a scene. We were discuss
ing it. An employe approached and
handed the comedian a telegram. Slow
ly he opened the envelope and read the
contents. A fan message perhaps or
an offer of a stage contract. 1t was
neither. For a moment there was
"stage wait" and then the actor handed
us the yellow paper and said, Fisher
Rankin-is-dead." Nothing more than
that. We knew Sidney too well to at
tempt to console him with old bromides
He would have resented reference to
his son as hero although he was con-
scious of the fact. In the glossary OF
sportdom we call this 'gameness."

"How could a man attain wealth

hair is quite long. The problem of how
to manage hair in this stage of growth
may be solved by the use of the same
sort of fiat curlS here described. The
front hair is divided into three sections.
The two side sections are waved and the
ends turned up into fiat curls. The top
or middle section is then combed over to
the left and deep wave put in over the
forehead. The ends of hair are made
into row of sculpture crlrls that cover
the left-hand part that was made in
the hair. The curls also fall backward
and are pinned fiat. This coiffure pre-
serves the natural contour of the head
and yet it is dressy and feminine in
effect. The short hairs at the beginning
of the right-hand part may be curled
and spread out fiat on that side Of the
forehead.

HICKMAN SMILES

With drawn pistols they forced hel
husband, hands i'll air, back OF the
prescription counter. Unknown to
them, patroln1an James Oliver had
preceded them into the store and
was at the moment repairing his
flash-light behind the counter. Al
most into the officers arms the two
youths backed Toms.
Oliver reached for his gun and
Hunt, according to the witness, cried
out to Hickman; Get his gun.
But Hickman, she said, began firing
while Hunt kept his weapon covering
her. A general scramble followed in
which the druggist dived behind the
counter for his own revolver.
During the firing Mrs. Toms said
her husband sltlmped to the floor
and dragged himself toward rear
door. She did not know which one
fired the shot Hickman, she said
fired several shots at her husband
as he ran from the store. In the
meantime Hunt was exchanging shots
with Oliver, the boy rcbber appar-

FORESTS DRAW
MANY FOR HOME
OR HOTEL SITE

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, Feb. 21--
just compiled by the south
western district for 1927 shows a tre-
mendous increase in forest visitors,
according to NJ. M. Cheney, chief Of
lands, who has charge of forest recrea-
ton activities.
The total recreational visitors in the
forests for 1927, as shown by the re-
port, is 1,400,519, or an increase of
practically one-half million, over SO
per cent as compared with the prev
ious year. To the construction of
better roads and opening up of new
mountain areas resulting in a greater
opportunity for the use and enjoyment
of the forests by the general public,
Mr. Cheney attributes this great in
crease.
Furthermore the year 1927 was
marked with much greater activity IN
the selection of individual summer
home sites and construction of sum-
mer home cabins on the national for
eStS. Numerous new resorts were also
laid out and developed. For the two
states, Arizona and New Mexico, the
number Of permitteeS increased during
the last year from $4,000 to 1880 at
the end OF 1927 Of these, 466 per-
mits were for summer residences and
60 hotel resorts. The number of hotel
gnests during 1927 is reported to have
been over $4,000 while the summer
home residents and their guests using
national forest areas aggregated over
10000, campers over 100000 and pic
nickers over 10000. The remainder,
making up total of nearly a million,
were tourists passing through the for
eStS.
Occupancy of the national forest
areas states Mr. Cheney, is allowed
under permit. The different kinds of
permits are as varied as the needs ri
the permittee. BY far the largest
number of permits are in connection
with stock grazing, with recreation
uses coming second.
The average charge for summer
home sites on the national forests is
SIS a year for each site. A summer
home permit gives the occupant ex-
elusive use of the land for that pur-
pose. The charge for a resort de-
pends upon the acreage desired and
the character of the use to be made
of it.

The inspection party reported both
the Douglas sRodeo highway and the
Central highway in good condition
although the heavy traffic and rains
of the past few weeks have effected
both. Maintenance crews are en-

time and they are dragged and lev

founder of the Burns International
Detective agency, who several years
ago was head of the department Of
justice bureau OF investigation.
Justice SiddonS told Day, VINO hired
the Burns men for Sinclair that he
had showed loyalty to a friend
(Sinclair) greater than loyalty to the
land" but that he had violated the
law. That loyalty, he added made
a stern duty unpleasant, but in
sentencing him he was taking it
into consideration with degree OF
admiration.
Justice Siddons did not review the
evidence in the case to any great
extent as he declared it had con-
vinced him that the two Oil men
and two detectives had violated the
law and had acted in contempt OF
court in ShadoWing the oil jury.
After the last sentence, that OF
Sinclair, had been pronounced, coun-
sci for the defense filed notice OF
appeal Justice Siddons fixed SIN
clairs bond at $4,000, Days aC $4,000
and that OF each OF the Burns at
$1,000.
From the court room the four with
their attorneys went to the ctfice
of the clerk where the bonds. were
prepared and signed. The respondents
were released on personal recoenlz-
ance tonight with an assurance that
the bonds would be furnished by @
bonding company in The morning.
None of the men sentenced except
w. Sherman Burns would discuss the
case.
That they would be found guilty
had been a foregCne conclusion since
Justice SiddonS ruled two weeks age
that jury Shadowing was unlawful.
Sinclair will go on trial April 2
in the same court where he was
convicted today on charges OF having
conspired with Fall to detraud the
government in the Teapot Dome
lease The government charges Fall
received $233,000 in liberty bonds
from the Oil man after he, as secre-
tary OF the interior, had granted
Sinclair the lease to the Wyoming
oil lands. 1t was from the first trial
which never l~ached the jury that

"The principle of fixing rates on the

CLUB
WANTS PAVING
ON OPEN STRIP

The directors of the Kiwanis club
voted at their meeting at noon yes
terday at Hart's cafe TO ask the
county, the city and the railroad
company to pave the strip between
the end of @ avenue and the begin
ming of the Bisbee-Douglas highway.
1t was brought out at the meeting
that the turn from G. avenue to the
Bisbee highway is more than right
angle, that 1t is dangerous and very
rough. In asking for action to pave
the strip the Kiwanians will ask also
that the curve be cut down in some
manner. Part of this strip is city
property, part is used by the South
ern Pacific tracks and part is under
the county highway administration.
The directors took up the matter Of
building some sort of monument TO
the club in the form of a playground
device for the entertainment OF the
children of the city, at the Play
ground park. The suggestion was
made by President Guy Crouch Of the
club and another director suggested
that wading pool with water about
six inches deep for the very little
children would be very good thing.
This director reported that the deep
er pool now used at the playground
is too deep for very tiny children
and is always crowded with larger
children.
The meeting decided that the mat
ter of going into tree planting on a
wholesale scale at this time, to
beautify the streets Of the city, would
not be advisable as the growing
season is near at hand and new
trees might die as it is late for
planting them. The club will take up
tree planting seriously in the fall.
The question of place for the
holding of the weekly Kiwanis lunch
was discussed it being the opinion
of the board that the Grand tea
rooms where the luncheons are now
held are very much crowded by the
steadily increasing membership. No
definite agreement was reached on
this but members were appointed to
investigate various possible me 4ting
places
The possibility of organizing XII
wants club in Lordsburg was acted on
and the directors, with some other
members of the local club, will plan
trip to Lordsburg soon to start
action.
