Plunging into the stream, which had a solid gravel botton, the cars forded and reforded the stream a number of times. At one place, dropping down off the bank, the cars hit dry gravel and it was ascertained we had gotten ahead of the flood of water just above.

Back in 1912, Mackey was prospecting along Smith river in Del Norte county, Calif., when he found the tree, the trunk of which had been hollowed out by fire to a diameter of 13 feet on the ground, and to a height of 30 feet. With some boards, boughs and stones, Mackey built in his bed, fireplace and other furniture, and lives there in absolute comfort. Protests Bandits Escape In Price Legion Wild Flight Team Win WILD CHASE THRU STREETS Helper The Price American Legion club defeated tha Helper Legion baseball team Wednesday in the third game of the playoff series by a score of 9 to 5. This game, however, was protested in the ninth inning when Tangaro, Price catcher made what has been claimed was an illegal catch of a fly ball, violating rule 49, section 2 of the rules adopted by the American and National leagues, which rules govern all American Legion games. Umpire in chief Lenard declared the runner out and Manager J. J. Dalpiaz of the Helper club immediately protested the catch. If this protest is allowed the two teams will again meet to decide the district 5 championship. The Price club collected six of their nine runs in the second inning on four hits. The other three runs came in the fourth. The Helper squad made two of their counters in the second when Garavaglia hit safely and Cory came up with his circuit drive. Helper accounted for their other runs in the sixth and the nintn. Joe Eaquinta, despite his defeat, pitched good ball, but was given rather poor support by his teammates. His total strikeouts for the game numbered 11. Calloway alkept his hits well scattered and lowed but seven.

Knobbs took thru the streets of the city, siren blasting a passage, a3 he endeavored to overhaul two men in a roadster wanted for evading a gasoline bill at Colton. The men drove into the Colton filling station and filled their tank with gas, and while the proprietor was hanging up the hose drove off without paying. Marshall Knobbs was notified in Helper and asked to stop them. REFUSE TO STOP Marshal Knobbs parked his car at the Bryner service station, and when he saw a car approaching which answered the description, stepped to the road and gave them a signal to halt. Instead, the driver headed the car for the marshal and stepped on the gas, Knobbs narrowly avoiding being hit. Marshal Knouus, accompanied by William Gunderson, took up the chase thru town, the bandits turning at the Midland service station and endeavoring to escape In the side streets near the school house. Running into a blind street, they straddled a ditch and circled around back to the highway and headed for Price, still closely followed by Marshal Knobbs. FIRES SHOTS AT TIRES Near the blue cut,. the police car overhauled the fleeing car and several shots were fired at the tires. The cars, however, were traveling at a speed of 55 miles an hour and and rises in the paving made aiming difficult, with the result that the car was not stopped. The car fled straight thru the main street of Price and on out the highway. Flying gravel and heavy dust forced the officers car to drop back a short distance and the chase continued several miles. At one time, Gunderson stated he saw one of the bandits leaning far out of the window and believed he was endeavoring to fire at the marshal's car. About the same time the windshield in Marshal Knobbs car was splintered, altho he was inclined to think It might have been done by a flying rock. About that time the police car sprung a leak in the water jacket, allowing the water to escape, and a few hundred yards farther on dropped out of the chase. Marshal Knobbs then notified the sheriff's office and asked that efforts be made to stop the men at Green River. It is Marshal Knobbs' belief that the men were putting forth such a serious effort to escape because of other crimes which may be on their shoulders, he believing that a small gasoline bill would be suf ficient to cause them to take such risks.

U. S. Gold Supply Shows Good Gain New York, July 27. The gold supply of the nation on Wednesday showed a net gain of well over five million dollars, indicating that the international flow of gold into Paris has veered to American coffers. One and a half million dollars sent from India to London, has been forwarded to the United States, instead of to France as has been the past custom with gold from that country. Approximately one and a half million dollars from Canada also have been deposited in the United States, both shipments being tagged as "mysteries" in the financial world. The increased influx of gold has been attributed to the recent firmness of the American dollar in foreign markets. Business Revival Peps Up Wall Street New York, July 27. With future wheat leaping 2 cents bushel on the Chicago grain market Wednesday, shares on the New York stock exchange took a climb of from $1 to $4 a share. Gains on the stock markets during the past few days have left the exchanges with an inclination to be somewhat bullish, while statistical reports show there has been an increased appreciation of approximately 28 per cent in stock values since the first of June. While there still are a number of skeptics in the financial centers, many believe the autumnal rise will not be nearly so disappointing as it was in 1931. a Gene Tunney Will Stump for Demos retired former worlds Gene champion heavyTunney, weight defensive boxer, has announced he will conduct an aggressive campaign in behalf of Governor F.

Tunney now aspires to political office as a United States senator from Connecticut, but for the present is contenting himself with the building of a permanent home in that state to establish himself as a voter, and campaigning for democratic candidates. Assassin Will Die on the Guillotine Paris, July 27.
