NO. 13 111 Dog Days 1 nr i ii i i u$ s in 7 " I GUS CARLSON ISACQUITTED Gus Carlson, 31 years of age, a native of Finland, who has been employed on the farm of "Vic" Anderson of Murray for the past three years, who stabbed Alec Dietrich, better known in Bingham as "Dutch" Miller, in the early morning of June 8th, was acquitted in Judge E. E. Dudley's court on Wednesday. At the preliminary hearing on June 21st there was insufficient time for the testimony of all the witnesses to be heard, and the hearing was resumed on Wednes-day. Carlson on the stand tes-tified that Miller hittuced him to come into an alleyway, advising him, "there is all kinds of fun in here." Carlson advanced tow-ard him, when Miller grabbed hold of him and began searching his pockets and took most of his money. Carlson then withdrew, took his pocketknife from his pocket, and stabbed Miller, as he feared Miller had a weapon, as he had placed his hand back in his pants pocket, as if to draw a gun. Mabel Villyard testified on returning to her home she saw Miller pull his cap over his face and approach Carlson, who was under the influence of liquor. Guy Delia Lucca testified that a few nights prior to the stabbing he saw Miller search the pockets of a drunk.en man after he had turned up the collar of his coat and pulled his cap over his face. Miller had also served terms in the county jail for burglarizing homes at Salt Lake City last winter.

The first shot went wild and crashed thru a confectionery store on the oppo-site side of the street, owned by G. Stephan, endangering the lives of several of the occupants. The second shot took effect, en-tering Martinez's right temple with such force as to cause his brains to protrude. The shoot-ing cavised much excitement in the community and Tonse was threatened with lynching. Fear-ing the mob might put their threats into action. Parley Thue-so- n and Cliff Swanson, both .Americans, took,, Ponse . away from the crowd and started off to the Bingham jail. On the road down they were met by Deputy Sheriffs Dorus Thomas of Lark, II. M. Nicholson, the deputy assigned to the Highland Boy district, and George Mar-chan- t, who has been assigned to the Copperfield district. Sheriff Thomas placed Ponse in his car and with Messrs, Swanson and Thueson placed him in the Bing-ham jail. Too much praise can-not be extended to these peace-lovin- g citizens, but for whose timely action, with no deputy sheriff in the district, there might have been a repetition of the fa-mous Lopez hunt. The people of the Highland Boy district are to be congratulated upon having such capable and fearless citizens in their midst. Tonse was taken to the county jail at Salt Lake City later in the evening. Another Killing at Highland Boy t Catarino Martinez, about 38 years of age, a native of Jalisco Logonsen, Old Mexico, and a resident of the Highland Boy district since 1916, was shot dead on Saturday evening by Marga-rit- o Ponse, also a native of Mex-ico, who was an employee of the Utah Con. Mine. Ponse is now in the county jail with the charge of wilful murder hanging over his Jiead, while the body of Mar-tinez is at the O'Donnell under-taking parlor waiting until suf-ficient funds can be collected for his burial. The killing was evi- - Utah Copper League American Fork Defeats Utah ? Copper What the Turks did to the Armenians was a comparative nothing to what American Fork did to the local boys Sunday af-ternoon. Eighteen runs and as many hits, while the Fork pitcher held his enemy to eight runs, represents the meal on which American Fork fed after their journey from the valley. Every man on the visiting team snared in the swatting dur ing the game. Grant, the locaj twirler, just back from a trainf. ing camp, was entirely off forni and had to be relieved by Boy berg, who checked up materially on the hitting contest. . Tbe American Fork team were hitters and showed it to advan-tage in Sunday's game, much to the delight of several local root-ers. On Tuesday the Copper team went to American Fork for a return game. This time it was not at all one-side- d, but a battle from the start to the end of the game. Boberg pitched masterly ball and only lost in the ninth frame, when a scratch hit; two bunts, and a hit over third closed the battle in favor of American Fork, 6 to 5 The Copper team played faultless ball m eight frames and marred but once in the other, thus going through with but the one error. It was one of those games hard to lose, but certainly no discredit in losing. Wednesday Arthur forfeited to the .Copper before the game. Grant again tried to see if he had recovered from his soldier-ing, but found out that he had not. Arthur had meanwhile an-nexed seven runs in four innings. Glynn then mounted .the rubber and the game was over as far as Arthur was concerned. He al-lowed but one hit in five innings and struck out nine. The State Leaguers played by Arthur all looked alike to Glynn, as. he mowed tnem aown in rotation. The game ended Arthur 7, Cop-per 4. Kiwanians TWanF a Real Road The Kiwanis Club Good Road Committee was assured by Coun-ty Commissioner Stenacker on Thursday evening that bids for the completion of the Bingham highway will be published imme-diately, and the people of Bing-ham may rest content they will have a real road this winter. It is understood the County Com-missioners are favoring Tarvia, but the Kiwanis committee on good roads have gone on record as saying if the Commissioners cannot use either concrete or bitulithic, they would prefer be-ing without any. O. R. Diblee and Forest Lowry of the Salt Lake Telegram also made talks. Over fifty members of the Ki-wanis Club and their friends en-joyed a picnic at Saratoga Springs on Friday evening. The Bingham Stage Line furnished stages for their transportation. Wife-Beat- er Arrested W. F. McClurg, a resident of Copperfield, was arrested on Sun-day by .Deputy Sheriff George Marchant for assaulting and beating his wife, Mary E. Mc- Clurg. The daughter of Mrs. McClurg notified the sheriff, and altho only a young girl, thor-oughly demonstrated that she was by no means afflicted with the ailment known as being "tongue-tied.- " On Monday, be-fore . Judge E. E. Dudley, Mc- Clurg promised to keep away from his wife. He is now on parole. Boost For Paved Roads to Bingham.

Former Bingham Man Dies at Salt Lake Septimus Gaythwaite, born at Cleator, England, March 6, 1885, died at the Holy Cross Hospital at Salt Lake City on Monday. Mr. Gaythwaite came to the United States in 1906 and was a resident of Bingham for five years and was much respected here. Leaving Bingham he went to Park City, where he met the girl of his choice and married Miss Isabel Brien, who survives him; also three brothers and four sisters. They are Edward M. and Thomas, of Bingham; Miles, of Cumberland, England; Mar-garet and Mary Ellen, of Eng-land, and Esther and Elizabeth, of South Africa. Funeral ser-vices were held from St. Paul's Episcopal Church at Salt Lake on Thursday afternoon, with the Rev. Hendricks officiating. In-terment was made at Mt. Olivet Cemetery, under the direction of the E. O'Donnell Undertaking Company. Bingham American Legion Celebrates ,A carnival and dance was given in the High School gym on Thursday evening to accumulate funds to send as big a delegation as possible to the State Conven-tion at Price on August 3, 4 and 5. The Seventy-sixt- h Field Ar-tillery band of Fort Douglas was present and rendered some ex-cellent musical selections. The Bingham Stage Line will run stages to the convention at the nominal sum of $5.00 for the round trip. Rodda Boy Returns Ron lie Rodda, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Rodda of Copperfield, after being a pa-tient at the Bingham hospital for several weeks, returned to his home on Wednesday. Altho the young man was severely burned from coming in contact with a . number of live wires from the roof of the Utah Power and Light Company's distributing station at Copperfield, he is re-covering nicely and it is hoped will be in no way handicapped from the burns he received. An Axe Was Used Oreste Mulatero and Carl Me-lo- ni were arrested at Copperfield on Saturday evening and charged with an assault on the person of Lucano Cadorin with an axe. It appears these men had been cele-brating together and partook too freely of some of Cadorin's "vine," with the result that Ca-dorin is now at the Bingham hospital, suffering from too close connections with the axe, and his companions arc the guests of the county at the county jail at Salt Lake.
