Minneapolis, jan 2l.-The local knights
of Pythias played a trump card today in
their game for a cent a mile for the ma
tional encampment next summer by an
nouncing that the 500 line and its connec-
tions had agreed to grant the much want
ed rate Inasmuch as this means a cent
a mile rate not only in the territory of the
500 and Canadian Pacific, but from Bos-
ton, New York, Detroit, Buffalo and
other competitive points, the committee
feels that the Western Passenger Asso-
citation, which has heretofore refused the
rate, will be compelled to grant 1t.

A BULL ADJOURNED CouRr.-Whil

A BULL ADJOURNED CoURT.-While
Mayor Wisner, of Warwick, n.
Y, was investigating charges against
number of young men, who
in their desire to properly celebrate
the Fourth of July, changed the apper-
ance of many familiar objects in the
town, some of the accused boys friends
got to work. They secured Holstein
bull, and after getting him to the Town
Hall, had little difficulty in driving
him through the door, where the Court
of Inquisitiop was in full sway. For
moment his bullship stood still, then he
uttered roar, ducked his head and
made for the railing that separated the
court from the crowd. Then justice
was forgotten and there ensued scram-
BILE for life. Everybody who could
went out doors and the rest literally fell
out Of the windows. The mayor head
ed the flight and left the bull the sole
occupant of the room.
Mayor Wisner finally concluded to fol-
give the boys, who repaired all dam
ages, but he is earnestly looking for the
man who sent in the bull.
