add a most unique feature to their
masque ball on New Years night. One
of the members of the camp will marry
one of Dodge's prettiest young ladies at

couple will advance to the center Of the
room and there the nuptial knot will be
tied, after which they will unmask. The
young people are both well known to ev-

The Skinner Case.

The case of the State VS. Wm. Skinner.
a restaurant keeper opposite the depot,
wherein the latter was charged with rob
bing an Englishman, Frank Scafe. of five
hundred dollars together with a diamond
pin and ring. was tried before Judge
MOffett at thr court house on last We'd
nesday. The evidence for the proseeu-
ton showed that Scafe came in on the
west bound passenger on Monday. De-
string to take bath he left the cars and
went TO Kochs barrier shop on Front
street where he took bath and shaved.
Returning down the street he stop
ped at Skinners and took several drinks
of brandy and ate some pie. He coniin-
ued drinking until intoxicated. Louis
Straughn, night caller on the Santa Fe.
testified that he went TO Skinners be-
tween and o o clock in the evening and
saw Scafe who was intoxicated there.
Saw diamond ring on his finger. The
night baggagcman on the Santa Fe testi-
fed that SINNERS son and his night
clerk pushed Scafe over. to the depot
about Is O'Clock where they attempt
ed to put him On the train. Scafe pos
sessed through ticket to San Francisco,
and the baggageman refused TO allow
them to put Scafe on the trsin as it was
not bound for his destination. Young
Skinner and the night clerk then started
back to the restaurant when Scafe fol-
lowed them crying out that they had
stolen his ring and money. The baggage
man shortly afterwards heard disturb
ance at the restaurant and going over he
found Scafe accusing Skinner of stealing
his ring and money Scafe showed the
baggageman his finger which was bleed
ing claiming it was done by the ring be-
ing forcibly removed. Witness then went
back to his work. The next witness
was a lad named Gibson, seventeen years
old, who testified that he went to Skin
ners place shortly after dark, saw Scafe
there, he was intoxicated. Skinner and
Scafe had several scuffles. In one of
these scuffles Skinner took Scafe's pin.
In another, took his handkerchief, both
went into the wash room and witness
heard more scutfling, was two railroad
men in the room besides himself. On
cross examination the witnesses memory
was defective on all points except the
ones given. The defense was principal
ly to the effect that witnesses saw moth
ing irregular in Skinners dealings with
the man. Saw nothing that looked like
theft. The court bound Skinner over in
the sum of $780, to await the action of
the district court Scafe has been on a
visit to England and is returning via this
country to Australia where he Is interes
ted in mining. He is enjoying the hos
pltality of Marshal Tarbox until he re-
ceives money from England.

Questions worthy OF discussion:

What are subjective, objective and ab-
normal consciousness?
Why is consciousness the basis of
mental science?
Can there be consciousness without
attention?
Are we conscious of everything We
know!
Is the testimony given by conscious
ness of having done right always evil
dence that we did right?
Can We be conscious Of anything we
did in time past? of what is not present
with US! of what may be? of what be-
longs to some one else?
