today. I'VE regarded the actions OF
the sophom0res, at the Theater, In the
light Of an offense we then decided
that the offenders owed II to the instl-
tuition to make IN apology. and when
they refused TO make restitution In
that way, the alternative we fixed was
suspension from their classes for the
balance Of the semester. That decision
was unanimously concurred In by the
faculty, and from that position we will
not recede. Any one or all OF the
students who have been suspended will
be reinstated any time they are willing
to conform to the conditions imposed

Another man, who did not want his

such a movement, and his action would
depend on the showing made. If after
that showing was made he considered
1t for the best interests Of the state,
he would favor a bounty bill
Mr.. Pykc Of Fremont, In an interview
said he did not think the establishment
of a sugar factory depended In any way
on state bounty, but II 1t became neces-

Lieut.. Gov. j. M. Stevens OF Bingham

movement looking to beet sugar boun-
ty but said he had been assured by
Mr.. S. Hanson, the chief promoter Of
the enterprise that no bounty would
be asked for, that the company was
going ahead with arrangements for the
establishment OF factory without
waiting for bounty. Mr.. Pyke also said
that the company was letting contracts
with farmers for growth OF beets for
1901, indicating they were In no way

factory. Senator Stephenson OF Ban

bounty. but personally felt favorably
toward it. He had talked with
several Legislators regarding the idea.
None Of them seemed TO have thought
OF a bounty, the idea being entirely
new. and they had therefore expressed

HOlDUP ON

Second Time Last Night

Got Between s25 and $50, and After
Taking Drink OF WHISKY Made
Good isis Escape.

For the second time within a period
Of two months, the Colorado saloon at
Az west Second South, has been the
scene OF a bold holdup and robbery,
Just before IL o'clock last night a
tall, slender man. wearing a handker-
hcief tied over his face and carrying
q large black pistol, walked In at the
front door Of the saloon, and boldly
confronted the half dozen or SO men
Longing around In front Of the bar
Joe Lewis was behind the bar, and
when he saw the intruder be yelled
ITS another holdup' The holdup
continued TO advance and as he did so
said Don't move or IN blow your
brains out" His command was not
Needed, however, for no sooner did the
brave men see who he was than they
made a rush pellmell for the rear door.
Young Lewis tried 70 escape also, but
failed, and the robber fired a SHOT at
him. Lewis went 70 the floor like a
nash, and the bullet crashed into a lot
of glasses on the bar. Lewis remained
quiet for few seconds and then jump
ing to his feet fled ike a frightened
deer through the rear door. The robber
then deliberately went TO work In his
search for money and valuables. From
the cash TIL he extracted between $25
and $780, and he also helped himself to
a drink of whisky. He searched all
over the place for valuables, but Sc
cured nothing but the cash mentioned.

They were watching for any person
who might have the temerlty to inter-
fore.
Tom Cronln, proprietor Of the place,
ran from the rear door and thought TO
Intercept the robber at the front. He
ran into the two lookouts Then he
ran away again. AS he sped towards
the Rio Grande depot the robbers fired
two shots at him, which had the effect
Of increasing his speed. He kept on
running until he reached a telephone
and sent an alarm to the police station.
In a short time detail OF police Off
GERS were on the scene, but OF course
the robbers were mean men and did
not wait for the police. To haze done
50 would have been breach OF their
code OF ethics.
The first attempt to hold up the place
occurred on the night OF November le.
AT that time. a single robber walked
into the place and ordered all 20 throw
up their hands. Deputy Sheriff Tom
Lewis, father OF the bar tender, Crap
pied with the robber and was beaten
severely over the head for his pains.
The fellow succeeded, after lively
fight, in making his escape. The police
are still working on last nights AFFAIR.

Washington, Jan. 27.-In the senate
today Mr. Beyerldge presented a petit
tlon from Indian territory for state
hood, which was read at the senator's
request. He then proceeded to explain
his reason for the reading, whereupon
Mr. Aldrlch demonstrated, saying that
II was opposed to the senate rules to
read petition IN detail, and also to
enter into debate upon IT. He said
that both practices We're growing in the
senate and that both were reprehensi-
bic.
When the routine business was con-
cluded at 1910 Mr.. Quay moved to take
up the statehood bin. but he was met
by MIR. Aldrlch with a point OF order TO
the effect that under the rules Of the
senate the motion was out Of order
and that the bin could not be taken up
before l o'clock without unanimous
consent
Mr.. Quay responded that this rule
was alternative, permitting business TO
proceed after the conclusion of the rou-
tine business. or at o'clock,
