SAPP IS NOT
Not guilty—so spake Captain
Franklin Johnson, foreman of the jury
who sat in the seats of judgment and
passed on the evidence in the case of
the territory versus J. R. Sapp, tried
in the temporary court room in Moose
Hall yesterday afternoon. The other
eleven also responded “aye” when
asked by Judge Leopold David if this
was their verdict.
| The second trial of Sapp was con
! ducted along the same lines as the
first, except there was possibly more
j spirit and action displayed by the op
1 posing attorneys, Munley and Murphy.
Special Agent Robinson and Mar
shal Hoffman’s testimony was not ma
terially changed from the preceeding
day, nor was Lindner’s or Neff’s.
John Mogel, the star witness for the
territory, broke down in yesterday’s
trial and his condition was really piti
ful. It seems that Mogel has been
threatened by some of the more ar
dent supporters of the gambling ele
ment and was trembling between duty
and personal safety. His testimony
was the same as the previous trial, nor
was it shaken by the defendant’s at
torney. John needs a poker up his
back and should be protected if neces
sary.
Judge Munley’s effort to bring be
fore the jury the testimony that one
Guest, arrested in the raid, had plead
ed guilty at the time of arraignment,
was overruled by the court. The ter
ritory rested at this and the defense
offered no evidence.
Attorney Murphy moved for an in
structed verdict from the standpoint
that the territory had failed to make
a case. Judge David promptly over
ruled the motion. The large crowd in
attendance settled down to pleasure
able anticipation of a wordy battle be
tween the opposing lawyers. The
Times suggested that this would not
be amiss with the spectators as it
adds to the life of a trial. They came
through. This raillery and spice is
permissible in court rooms. Judge
Munlcy and Attorney Murphy entered
into a rather heated discussion in re
gard to patriotism, duty, etc., and both
i exemplified that there is only one flag
and one country, but seemed at van- \
ance when it comes to the perform
ance of duty. No one was injured,
physically, and after instruction to the
Deputy Marshal Harry Schultz as cus
tonian. The crowd filed out, rather
pleased with the afternoon’s entertain
ment. The officials should charge ad- i
mission.
The verdict was rendered at 15 min
utes of 7 o’clock—just 45 minutes af
ter sitting down to eat an elaborate
supper. Can you blame ’em.
WEDDING REVEALS WHYFORE
OF SENORA CARRANZA’S VISIT
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 0.—Senorita
Salinas, niece of First Chief Carranza,
is to be married here today, and that,
say folks who know, tells the story of
the visit of Senor Venustiano Carran
za to the United States two weeks
ago. She came to buy the trousseau.
When she visited ;n San Antonio
she was with Senora Alvaro Obregon,
wife of Carranza’s war minister. The
pair were carefree and moved about at
perfect ease. Senora Carranza found
the movie shows a charm but spent
most of her time buying, buying, buy
ing.
She confessed too, that it wasn’t all
for her niece for Senora Carranza
: likes “pretties” and likes her daugh
ters to have them. Senor Carranza’s
visit to the United States was the oc
casion for the spread of many rumors
saying the first chief was to flee Mex
ico. She denied them all flatly.

j CIGARS, TOO, WILL
GO CEILINGWARD
ST. PAUL, Nov. 9.—Six cent cigars
are almost a certainty in the very
near future, the St. Paul retail cigar
| dealers association today predicted.
; High prices of all other commodities
I was assigned.
_
Not Grandees, But Just Grand.
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Nov. 10.— |
; Young, handsome, vivacious, delight
fully unmarried and owners of one
cute little moustache each, Senors
Enriquez Jiminez and Marline Guz
mann were today putting romance in
the romance language department of
the University of Minnesota. They
came all the way from chili-ridden
Mexico to join the Gopher faculty.
Young co-eds promptly flocked to
their classes.
The Dawson News says the past
fall was the latest and mildest Daw
son has ever known. On October 17,
when the river is usually closed, there
was no sign of a freezeup.
BELL GIRLS SUPEKSEUn,
BELL BOYS; NONE OF
DRUMMERS COMPLAIN
_
CLEVELAND, Nov. 11.—“Front,"
says the clerk at the hotel desk and
instead of the customary be-buttoned
boy there comes a “knockmedead”
blonde or a dashing brunette to take
your luggage and pilot you to your
room.
“Bell girls" are more attentive than
bell boys," says the originator of the
idea. That is the reason they have
been installed in the Hotel Statler
here.
Women guests find the “bell girls”
almost as useful as a maid, the man
agement states. The “hook-me-up”
problem is now easily solved.
None of the drummers has com
plained.
COAL HIGH, PROSPERITY
DID IT, SAYS DEALERS
NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—Prosperity
may yet freeze New York’s popula
tion to death.
Such at least, was today the ex
planation the coal men ladeled out
with each order of coal—$10 to $12 a
ton and still going up.
The mills and factories are so busy
that their demands for coal is stupend
ous, is the unanimous averment. They
have simply grabbed everything in
sight and are aching to get their hands
on more. Of course a demand like
that pushes prices up and the prices i
for domestic follow. Then, too, cars i
are scarce, storage is at an almost pro
hibitive figure and wages for all work
ers in the coal mining and handling
activities are high. That’s all. t
“Wife, the mahogany center table:
goes into the fire next. We can put
a piece of coal in the drawing room in
its place and folks will believe we are
aremendously wealthy.” Such may be
the solution.
FRIDAY IS FISH DAY
FOR THIS CAT, TOO
ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 10.—Cole
man Flaherty’s cat won’t eat meat on
Friday.
Flaherty is a good Catholic. The
cat has been in the family several
years. All cats would rather eat fish
than meat. Flaherty’s cat got into
the habit of having fish, left from the
Flaherty table every seventh day.
Now the feline expects it, and will
have nothing else.
For Billiards and Pool try Peter
son’s. * 46 |
TO BE INTRODUCED
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Abas, Sa
lonfe, likewise the sensuous Egyptian
and the tantalizing, wriggling hula
hula maid, each of whom, it seems,
took a lesson from Miss Hootchie
Kootehie—America Is to have a new
stage dance.
Methchorie or geometrical dancing
is its label and Mme. Valentine de
Saint Point is its exponent. She is
now en route to New York on the
Monsenat from Barcelona, Spain.
The dancing which she will introduce
has a “cerebral quality.” Which is
explained thusly.
While music, painting and sculpture
have changed in form and method, be
coming more “cerebral” instead of
merely emotional, dancing has re
mained an art which appeals through
the eye, to the sense alone. In the
new geometrical dancing all of the
elements which fill the house when
Mary Garden dances Salome are re
tained and artistries are introduced
giving the movements meanings.
The dances are staged with Mme.
de Saint Point’s own poems set to
music by Debussey, Ravel and other
composers. In some the garb is very
light, in one, however, a coat of mail
with only slits for the eyes is worn.
HIGH COST KEEPS UP
EVEN TO GRAVEYARD
BUENOS AIRES, Oct. 21.—(By
Mail)—The leasing of graves being,
to a considerable extent, the custom
in Buenos Aires, the municipal in
tendente has published a notice
warning the relatives of tenants in
the local cemeteries that rents are
due and that those who fail to secure
renewals within .‘50 days will be evict
ed.
The intendente adds that victims of
the evictions will be deposited in the
charnel house, or, less elegantly ex
pressed, the general boneyard.
The 30 days is now about up. A
good deal of the rent has been paid
but there is also a good-sized list of
delinquents. Their ejection from
their graves is expected to begin
shortly.
Professors of Economy Meet.
CHICAGO, Nov. 10.—Professors of
economy from many of the universi
ties of the middle west met at the
University of Chicago today to trade
ideas. They listened to addresses on
the relation of engineering, business
and law to economics.

TODAY’S ODDEST STORY.
TEMPLE, Tex., Nov. 9.—Little Ida
May Hunt lost a gold chain and laval
liere in the river near her home sev
eral weeks ago. Her father started
to milk the family cow recently and
discovered the ornament twisted
around the cow’s leg. The cow had
picked it up in wading the river.
The prospects for the Tolovana next
season are exceedingly bright. Ac
cording to reports that there will be
sixteen more plants working next
year than during the past season.
