Il will decide the motion tomorrow

I can say now that all of the conten-
tions of the state will not be sustained so

be the first court to hold that games play
are in Violation of the statute and that
those people become criminals. If such
contention was sustained there would be
no one in the hearing of my voice who
would not have committed a crime on
Sunday. The question is where the line
shall be drawn. 1t will not do to say that
the law applies to checkers, three in

contend for such a construction.
Rev s. A Alt, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church of Oakland, stepped
in front of Judge Hazen and said:

case will be delivered Saturday morn

A small crowd asse embed in the

Gchrant was not present, as it was
not necessary for him to be present
during the hearing of the motion. No
testimony was offered and the entire
proceeding was a discussion of the
law G. c. Clemens fled a motion to

was not an offense under the statutes

on Sunday. In arguing the motion
Mr.. Clemens said:
Our statute is taken word for
word from the Missouri laws. Some
years ago the question came before
the St. Louis court of appeals and
the court decided the question. The
Court said that it found no law
against athletic games and that the
Jaw prohibited games of chance or
other immoral games but did not
prohibit athletic games. and that the
law should be construed against
games specifically named. Game is

DOG SAVES A CHILD.
Is Towing Boy to Shallow Water When
Man Comes to His Aid.

Burlington, N. j., July 29-An old
black and white dog of mongrel
breed is the hero of the hour here.
Three-year-old Elmer Westernier was
playing about the wharf adjoining the
Oneida Boat club house an dfeI over
board into ten feet of water. His
fathers faithful dog was the only wit
ness of the accident.
The animal barked loudly to attract
attention and then jumped into the
water himself and seized the drown
ing boy by the collar. Finding it
impossible to climb the steep stone
wall of the wharf, the dog started to
tow his heavy burden to a shallow
place A passing man saw the strug-
Cling in the river and swan out and
carried the now unconscious lad
ashore, the dog following barking
ioyfully.
The boy was revived with difficulty
and the man disappeared before his
name could be learned.

INSECT is KILLING DOGS.
Strange Denver Pest Stings Animals
Upon Their Noses.

Denver, July 2e.-The death of num-
Der of dogs and cats in this city Of
what at first was thought to be poison
is now believed to be due to the pres
ence in the city of a horde of poison
Gus insects, the sting of which is GER
tain death to all hair or fur clothed
creatures, if inflicted in a tender spot.
Examination of the bodies of the dead
animals has resulted in the discovery
that upon the nose in each instance
there appeared tiny red spot, and that
the skin around this spot was much
inflamed.
The discovery of this led those who
suffered a loss of household pets to re-
member that in each instance the first
indication of illness given by the ami
NAL was desire to scratch its nose.

COOL AND VERY WET.
That Describes the Climatic Condi-

That space of time which has
elapsed since March 1 is short on tenn
peratures and long on rainfall.
The total deficiency in temperature
since March 1, according to the rec
ords kept by Director Jennings of the
weather bureau, is 354 degrees and
the excess of rainfall for the same
time is 5.95 inches. The total rainfall
since March / has been 24.62 inches.
while the normal rainfall for that
length of time is 1867 Since July 1
the shortage in temperature has
amounted to a total of IL degrees.
The July rainfall has amounted to
sos inches which is 1.55 inches in ex-
cess of the normal.

defined to be a device for play and
for the playing of games for stakes.
Game or gaming is defined to be
something involving chance. The
court of appeals of Kansas City gave
another opinion. The case from the
St Louis court was affirmed by the
supreme court of Missouri. The Kan
sas City court of appeals decision was
overruled. For thirteen years that
opinion of the supreme court of Mis-
souri, that baseball and other athletic
sports is not playing games has stood.
1 do not know whether the Kansas
law was copied from the Missouri
statutes or whether Missouri copied
from Kansas, but they are the same.
1t can't be that baseball is of the same
genus as horse racing or cock fight
ing or playing at cards. Baseball can
not be the same genus as cock fight
ing unless some of the baseball play
ers are ROSTERS. These could not be
of the same genus unless the law
said all things at which men have
amusementS.
I'VE have the opinion of Judge
Thompson of the St Louis court of ap-
peals, one of the ablest judges of the
country and then the opinion OF the
Missouri supreme court that this stat
ute does not prohibit athletic games.
I can't see why people still think base
ball a crime
County Attorney Hungate said in his
argument:
Baseball on Sunday has brought con-
siderable agitation. This case must be
decided on the law and not on the
game as I saw the game played yes
terday. AS far as 1 have found Mis-
souri, is the only state having a law
identical with ours. Some states have
laws specifically against Sunday base
ball and others have laws against
sporting. The contention of the state
here must be that the legislature meant
something when it said Games of any
kind, and if this means anything, must
be that the legislature meant any kind
of a game unless it mea.E only the
games specified. Which kind of
game did the legislature intend to pro-
hibit? A game similar to cock fighting
or similar to horse racing? What can
the court think unless it thinks that
the legislature absolutely intended to
prohibit amuSements on Sunday"
do you mean innocent games?" ask
ed Judge Hazen-
Il mean any games or amusements,"
said Hungate, land 1 refer you to the
decision of the Kansas City court of
appeals which decided playing baseball
on Sunday was contrary to the stat
uteS. This case was overruled by the
Missouri supreme court but 1 ask you
to consider the decision of that court
