an opportunity tONsee their best teams in
action, and in each case there is Il great
amount of interest in the game.
At cummings field, IN Salt Lake, the
Utdh champions, the East BencherS. line

more than passing importance TO the L
boys, as IL will probably decide the play
ers Maddox Will take TO Colorado with
him next week when he meets Boulder.

Fred Bennlon keep in their old places.
Hard Game Expected at Ogden.
The two rival high schools. Salt Lake

ernoOn. If one can depend on the dope
handed out during the past two weeks,
this game wilt be one of the hardest
fought in the state today. ogden mas
the heavier team, and it is said TO be bet
ter coached than ever before. For this
reason they expect to win from the West
Siders. While ogden is probably physlc-
ally better, in Salt Lake II Will ind the
fastest bunch it has been up against Tor

dents lack in weight they make up III
spA.d. and this combination is dan
gei2us one in any game,
Tke All Hallows left for Logan yester-
day afternoon and play the Aggies there
this afternoon. This game is almost a
cinch for the farmers because they SIM
ply outclass the collegiOns in weight.
Coach Freeman H. Bassett said yester-
DAY his team would average AZ pounds,
which is light for even high school team.
The Aggies will go many pounds heavier
than this, and should therefore have an
easy time of il.

Otis Humphrey sustained the demurrer
filed by United States District Attorney
Morrison 10 the plea in abatement made
by packers seeking to have indictments
for alleged restraint OF trade declared
void. Judge Humphrey said he made
his decision on broad grounds without
taking into consideration technicalities
which the government advanced against
the plea in abatement.
il is likely that the jury for the trial
will be drawn about the middle OF Octo-
Der.
After the decision had been given. the
defending attorneys tried to amend the
fourth plea by the insertion of the word
for This met with resistance from
the District Attorney, but the court
promised that if the law was clear on
the point he would allow it, The gov
ernment is said to fear a trick in the in
sertion OF the one word. The District
Attorney moved that the defendants
plead TO the indictment. 1t was an
nounced that demurrer is to be filed
by the packers, attacking the face of the
entire indictment as far as defects and
insufficient allegations are concerned. The
defendants were ordered by the court
TO plead next Thursday morning, the
pleadings 10 be taken UP in argument
before Judge Humphrey by the follow
ing Monday. In the meantime a bill of
exceptions it TO be prepared by the de-
PENDANTS TO the ruling just made by
Judge Humphrey. Exceptions were
taken by all OF the defendants to the
courts ruling on every count in the
pleas. This was for the purposes of
appeal after the trial
One of the points in the pleading
which attracted considerable attention
and which the court declared had given
him some difficulty, was in regard to
the right of Judge s. II. Bethea to re-
ceive the return OF the indictment. II
was argued by the defense that he was
sitting in the Eastern Division of the
Northern District of Illinois and re.
|ccived an indictment voted in the North
OF Illinois. The District Attorney de-
ciared that if the law of March 3, 1905,
which created the position now held by
the Judge and also rearranged the dis
tricts was construed against his conten-
tions there was no court, and there was
no judge, and there was no return of
the indictment The court surprised al
most everyone in court when he read
from President Roosevelt's message in
the Congressional Record of last No
vernber in which it is declared that Judge
Bethea was appointed as successor to
Judge c. c. Kohlsaat, promoted from
the District Court TO the Circuit Court.
This promotion gave Judge Bethea the
right to accept the return of an indict-
ment voted in the old district.

Cambridge, III. (Special) The neigh
bors of Clarence Markham, farmer
living southwest OF Cambridge, discov-
cred that the Markham house was on
FIRE. Fastening there to assist in sub
DUNG the flames, they were horror
stricken upon their arrival 10 see the
bodies of Mrs. Markham and her seven
children lying inside the burning build
ing in a heap on the floor, covered with
blood.
After frantic efforts they succeeded in
pulling the bodies from the flames, only
TO find them horribly mutiated. gashed
and burned. All were apparently dead
but later signs of life were discovered
in the woman and she was revived.
Mrs. Markham at first said a strange
man had killed the children and then set
the house on fire. Later and just be-
fore dying, she confessed that she had
killed the children with an AK. She
had attempted to kill herself with the
same implement, she said. but failing, she
placed the bodies OF the little ones on
bed saturated with coal OIL which she set
ahre. She threw herself on the burning
bed and was horribly burned.
After her death a letter was found in
the rural mail box addressed to her hus-
band, telling him she was going to kill
herself and the children; that she loved
him and the children, but believed
they would be better off and safer in
the arms OF the Lord than they were
on earth.
The woman is supposed to have been
temporarily insane. The husband was
away from home at the time. He is
prostrated. The family was poor. The
children ranged from 10 years to 4 baby
in arms.
The Markhams lived apart from
neighbors, the husband being employed
as laborer on a nearby farm. He was
compelled to be away from home during
the day. Having noted his wife acting
queerly for several weeks, he had kept
the children, the oldest OF whom was
but nine years OF age, out of school, to
be with the mother. She was never
known to exhibit violent tendencies pre-
yiously.

second offer, nor can we indefinitely wait
for an answer frois King Oscar, II we
do not receive a response very soon we
shall consider ourselves relieved and turn

would then be the most available through

I'VE shall have to choose between

dent is virtually king, with fixed term (;
second, an absolute republic, like that of
the United States, where the president is

last satisfies lis best, and we shall un-
