ASK ABOUT OUR CLUB RATES IS A telephone messago from Duns mulr, Calif., this morning said that the coroner's 1urv. had hound over to the Siskiyou county grand jury, llurtl V. .McMartin. charged with tho death' of Fred Hurst, a nativo born son ot Jackson couuty, and well known in this city, as tho result of a shooting affray at Slsson, Calif. Tho warrant for the arrest of McMartln, a business partner of tho slain man, was sworn to by Frank Hurst ot this city, a brother of the deceased- McMartin Is hold in the county jail at Yreku, Calif., pending further action. The body of Fred Hurst will arrive this evening from Dunsmulr, Calif., and tho funeral services will be Held from the Conger undertaking parlors at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. McMartin, who was charged . with murder, has been a resident of Siski you county for twonty years. Hurst was 3S years of age. and was born on a furm near Kagle Point anil was a mombor of a well known pioneer family of this section. According to tho story of tho trag edy brought back to this city, tho af fray occurred about ten o'clock Fri day night, in a small house at the tear of tho soft drink establishment, operated by tho two men. A party of Hurst's friends from Weed, Calif,, wero visiting him, among them Glen Thompson of Weed, tho only eye witness of tho shooting. Hurst arranged to take Thompson and the others home in his auto, and heforo leaving, went with Thompson to the small house, whero McMartin was resting. They were admitted, and hot words followed, and as a climax McMartin ruBhod . into tho main building, and camo buck with a revolver. Tho men grappled, and tho first shot tore oft a finger on Hurst's hand. Hurst tnon grabbod McMartin by tho throat, while en deavoring to tako the gun away from McMartin. Three more bullets wero fired, two striking Hurst in tho calf of the leg, and one cutting tho main artery in the thigh. The wounded man .collapsed, so the story goes, and McMartin returned to the establish-1 ment and announced: "I've shot, Fred Hurst." j Hurst was then taken In an nuto truck to Dunsmulr, Calif., for medical I treatment. He was resting easily i until about noon Saturday. In prob-l ing for the bullet In tho thigh it was found that tho artery had been scv-j ered, nnd In spite of a heroic opera-, Hon, tho wounded man slowly sanki to death. . According to the Sacramento Bee of Monday evening, McMartin will plead self-defense. 10 VISIT BUSINESS FORECASTS AT Leonard R. Cornell nnd James Tj.

Tho North M. E. -Baptist tannic! was a slow gume for tho most, part, replete with fouls many of a' personal nature, with ono man dlB- qualified for same and soino others; perilously near tho limit. Tho North M. E.'s threw.only three field goals and accrued tho rest ot their 10 points on baskets from tho foul line. Tho Baptists hooped five field ones, and accounted for the remainder byi tosBlng from the lino. They made 14 in all and missed tho long end of the score only by a hair. Twcnty-ono fouls were called on the Baptists and seventeen on tho Methodists, which shows ill somo measure why tho gamo was slow. Thirty-eight fouls In ono gamo hint rf a lack of knowledge of tho finer points of basket ball. The second gamo was u distinct surprise to tho crowd and nt least to ono team. What the. Presbyterian . boys oro training on is a mystery, j Though they havo uot won a gamo I this season, they put up a scrap last night which brought tho bleachers to, their feet many timos. Composed of! more boys in tholr early toens, not one of whom has even attained tho glory of tho high school squad, they, staged such a whirlwind attack upon tho seasoned and experienced top notchers as at times mado them look liko tho rankest brand of bustiers The intontions of the older team were of the best but like tho plans of Burns' "mice an' men," they "gang' aft agley." Liko a fickle March wind catching away one's headgear nt tho very moment ouo's fingers are clos-i Ing on it, tho smaller, lighter nnd more active team repeatedly whisked the olusive ball out of danger. The only department of the game In which the Presbyterians, proved themselves weak was in hooping the ball. Time after time when hard and accurate passing and perfect receiv ing and handling had won them an opportunity, tho trick which shows in the score column and wins games could not be turned.., Compared to this, tho deadly accuracy of Gentry, ably seconded by Caldwell and Schaef fer of the South Methodist team con verted a majority; olrtholc chances Into tallies. Toan. obsbrver It seemed that a third of the Bhots at tempted by tho Presbys If success ful should have returned tho team a winner. One of the finest examples of sportsmanship ever shown on a floor was given by Warren Conrad, captain of tho Presbyterian team, falling thd fourth personal foul ngatnst a South Mothodist player, the referee was about to disqualify and remove h'.m from tho gamo In accordance with the rules. Conrad camo for ward and explained that such dis qualification would leave the crippled team with only four players, as no Bubs wero present. He requested ac cordingly that tho man bdallowcd to continue. Considering that tho Methodist team was then ahead and that the legitimate removal of tho player would havo given the Presby terians an Immense advantage and quite probably tho gamo, Conrad's sportsmanship is most commondablo. It is Incidents liko this which are re membered longer than who wins any particular gamo. If the Y. M. C. A. leaguo is teaching ideals like these It is immeasurably Worth while. Jewett of Central Point refereed both games and did so in bis usual able mannor. Ho called 'em without fear or favor and his decisions wero prompt and unbiased. A largo per centngo of personal fouls registered indicato partly somo carelessness or unsportsmanlike playing, but must In a considerable number of cases be laid to the sllppory condition of the floor, nnd aro consequently uninten tional.
