, ne poisoned man is now out of danger
Dut is IN a most stiffened condition
An examination into the facts reveals
a very ugly phase. and from an that can
pc learned il looks like clear case of
attempted murder
Davis-is foreman of about a dozen men
IN the boiler room at the sugar factory
The men all have their lunch baskets Ia
oeieu and place them In a room adjoining
the boiler room, known as the pump room
Nhen the men partook of their lunches
last night about midnight Davis noticed
a most bitter taste 10 his desert which
was dish of peaches After Dartaking
or several soO0nfuls he passed it over
10 companion to sample who pro-
nounced the bitterness caused by strych-
nlne- Davis by this time began to feel
queer. The calves of his legs began to
assume the shape OF cannon balls, He
was taken to the superintendent office
and in a few moments was in commissions
of a most violent character Dr. Steele
was summoned and arrived just In time
TO save the mans life.
He is yet very sore and stiff, but entire
ly out of danger
The dish of peaches was shown to your
correspondent and about One-fourth of a
spoonful of what appears to be strvch-
nine is in one side of the dish, and some
Of the peach juice diluted with water has
a taste more bitter tAan pure quinine
Mrs. Davis stated that the desert was
taken from Jar of fruit a part of which
had been eaten by the family for supper
only last night Mr.. Davis. when inter
viewed stated that the poison must have
been placed in his lunch after he came
to the factory last evening. He has no
suspicion TO place on any employee OF the
sugar factory for he can assign no rea-
son why anyone should have any cause
for desiring to iniure him. He has had
no trouble with anyone that would cause
them TO hold any III feeling toward him.
and he is at a total loss 20 assign any
reason for the attempted poisoning.
The county officers and the sugar COM
pany will probe the mystery TO the bottom
and the people OF Lehi are most anxious
that the guilty person may be revealed.

Standing of Teams.

IL was case of the pins being glued to
the floor IN the match series between the
senators and Independents last evening
NO matter how the learned gentlemen
would curve the balls or how hard the
independent crowd would throw. the big
round pieces Of wood, il was all tho same
the pins refused to go down in the pit.
Some of the bowlers blamed the smelter
smoke for dinming their vision while
Others claimed they had been working too
hard registering friends for the coming
election, but at any rate the scores made
were about the worst ever.
The ten bowlers kept busy in tie thirty
games without a single one getting a Vi
sion OF the 200 mark Davis 19S score
came close to it. and it was the best OF
the evening. His score of 537 for the three
games was also the best of the evening
OF the two teams the Senators were the
worst, and as a consequence keep their
place at the bottom of the percentage
column. The learned gentlemen captured
the second game. but the first ana third
went to the Independents.

DUGDALE STILL PLUGGING
FOR PACIFIC LEAGUE

d F. Dugdale, who lately resigned from
the manaS cement of the Portland team. is
still plugging for the old Pacific National
circuit. Here is what Dugdale has TO say:
Its the Old league that was popular
with the public The California cities arc
too far away 10 create anything but the
usual interest in baseball, whereas when
Seattle. Spokane, Tacoma and Portland
were fighting II out. there was something
local in il and the players and public were
upon their toes all the time.
AND that the old league was the popu-
lar one I think is proven By the fact that
all the old players always drift back to
Seattle as soon as fall comes. Take the
present Tacoma team. for instance, and
as soon as the season is over do you think
the Tiger men viii return to Tacoma?
Not much.
But on the other hand, look at my old
men. There are Stovall. Hickey, FTary,
Rockenficld. Stanley. Hurley AMI others.
No sooner was the season over than back
they came for the winter They still feel
like fighting out the old battles, you bet.
say" continued the Fat Man. doesn't
IL seem strange TO find Hickey. HOgg and
StCvall pitching again for Seattle? 1
never expected to see - mats certain.
And the boys are making good. too. They
can talk all they want 10 about the stars
of the old p. y. l. not being fast enough
for the Coast league, but l guess We
have shown them"

SCHAUMANN'S DEFENSE.
Father of Assassin Admits Writing
Memorial

Helsingfors. Finland. Nov. For
mer Senator Schaumann, father of Eu
gene Waldemar Schaumann, the assas-
sin Of the late Governor General Bob
rikoff, who has been on trial at Abo
for some time charged with having
had knowledge OF his sons crime, in
his plea admits that he wrote the me-
mortal regarding the necessity for the
organization Of the Firms. but he claims
that it was without reasonable in
tent Schaumann explains that he
wrote il one evening when he had moth
ing else to do, slipped it into book
i'm his library and had forgotten it's
existence. The contents do not betray
reasonable intent. Scnaumann said he
never had any connection with julius
Luzu, the Wiborg agitator, and knew
nothing about the latters scheme for
organizing rifle companies. Schau
mann was living on pension as a re-
tired officer. He concludes with say
ing that his unblemished reputation
during thirty years service in the Rus
sian army should have protected him
against the charge OF treason.
