Jewell, president of the shopcrafts.

We do not care in what manner."

Jimmy up in exceptionally fast and good battle and had the natives from the Gate City sitting up and taking notice. He scored a clean knockdown in the third round and just about stopped his man. As Rubio is quite a favorite over there it is hard to gain any favors from the club's judges. Jimmy thinks, they are a bum lot of orbiters and says they would make better "pearl divers" than boxing judges. Jimmy ought to know for he held the flyweight pearl diving championship of Oskalootech at one time—probably in his younger and palmier days. Babe Orton, clever local 125-bounder, had the misfortune to fall out of the ring in his set-to with Jimmy Musso of San Bernardino and so severely injured himself that he was unable to continue.

BENCH WARRANTS FOR LOCAL OFFENDERS Bench warrants are to be issued Monday for all those who have been tagged by the charge of traffic violations and who have not come in to make their report. It was announced today by Judge G. B. Brown. This will include all those who have been tagged prior to about 10 days ago; it is stated, and there are said to be about a dozen of these. It is stated that it will cause them more trouble than if they had come in in the beginning, and reported on the matter. Judge Brown says it doesn't do any good to tag law violators unless they are made to come in and account for it. He stated that his office was not going to be used arbitrarily nor to bring in revenue, but that he is determined to stand behind the officers for the enforcement of the law. He stated that it is not going to be presumed that a man is guilty simply because he has been tagged, but that the officers are not going to have any reason to kick about not having the co-operation of his office in the enforcement of the law. If a man is guilty and can be proven so, there will be no fixing it up, Judge Brown said.

Phillips, was the subject of an intensive investigation begun today by the district attorney's office. The investigation was launched in the behalf that the past life of Mrs. Phillips may throw light on the impulses that led her, according to the indictment, to kill her fancied love rival beating her to death with a hammer. Evidence already has been accumulated by the investigators tending to show that Phillips was by no means the only man who has figured in the life of Mrs. Phillips. Emphasis was laid on the importance of this investigation by the discovery that, according to a statement given by Mrs. Phillips herself, there are four years in her life that have not been accounted for.

Evidence already has been accumulated by the investigators tending to show that Phillips was by no means the only man who has figured in the life of Mrs. Phillips. Emphasis was laid on the importance of this investigation by the discovery that, according to a statement given by Mrs. Phillips herself, there are four years in her life that have not been accounted for. Disclosure to this effect came thru the important discovery that, only two days before the murder of Alberta Meadows, Mrs. Phillips purchased an automatic pistol, a "lady's gun," small enough to be easily carried in concealment. In buying the pistol, together with cartridges, Mrs. Phillips, as required by the law governing the sale of firearms, gave certain data regarding herself for record. The record shows that she gave her age as 27, altho she stated several times, as has her husband, that she is only 23. Where was she and what was she doing during those four missing years, the investigators want to know. How many men have figured in her life of 23 or 27 years, and what have been her relations to them? Even Phillips has figured in her life twice, according to his own statement. CELEBRATE DAYS OF GOLD DISCOVERY IDAHO SPRINGS, Col., July 21. — Idaho Springs, nestling amid some of the highest peaks in the Colorado rockies, will celebrate the "days of '59" early in September, in observance of the discovery of gold in Colorado.

CONTROL INCOME LOS ANGELES, July 21. — Presenting the unusual situation of both parents of a minor child asking the appointment of the same person as guardian of his estate, the case of Jackie Coogan, juvenile film star, was called today before Judge Rives. The petition was filed by Jack Coogan and his wife, Lillian Coogan, parents of Jackie, and they were in harmony with the plan of Mrs. Coogan being named legal guardian in order to conserve the estate of the child actor, which consists of his large earning power in the films. According to Pierson M. Hall, attorney for the parents, the father and mother of a child are its natural guardians, the law presuming that the love and affection of the parents will protect the child. In this case, however, the salary drawn by Jackie was so great that it was considered wise for the parents to ask the court to share their responsibility. A guardian of an estate is responsible to the court for all money collected in behalf of the ward and every cent must be accounted for and the account approved by the court from time to time. The guardianship was sought also in order that the parents might be protected from malicious gossip and those who might believe that the juvenile star's salary was being exploited or misused by the parents. 'HENRY AND ME' WILL CONTINUE AS CHUMS EMPORIA, Kan., July 21. — Arrest of William Allen White, Emporia sage, ordered by Gov. Henry Allen for expressing sympathy with strikers, will leave their intimate friendship unsmirched, both declared today.
