Language and Character.

''The French language has no word

word for love" said a philologist
Thus from a languages characters.
ties we may learn much about the peo.
pie using II.
THE French have no word for kick
They are, you see, polite and refined
race, little given to kicking, They have
hundred words for love, though.
They differentiate love with a nicely
incredible to us Anglo-Saxons. No
word for kick, hundred words for
love. Can't you form from that good
idea of the French character?
"The Algonquins have a wretched
time Of It. In their language there is
no love, and there is no love In their
hearts. But kick. bite, beat, punch,
rend, pinch, scratch. tear-there is an
abundance Of such words among the
Algonqulns, and by putting two and

Of the stern. unlovely Algonquin ma

With a bullet hole in his left leg
and one In his right arm, and in
dying condition, William Lane, a
.colored man, was found this morn
ing in one Of the cars in the Trac-
ton company's barn across the
river by one of the company's en-
ployes. Attention was called to the
man by his feebly calling for help.
The patrol wagon was called and
the man taken to the Sacred Heart
hospital. He was seen by Press
reported and stated he knew moth
ing of the accident more than that
he was held up last night on one
of the railroad tracks in the city,
the track not being known to him.
He stated he was walking along,
when two men stopped him and
told him to give UP his money. He
refused and was struck on the head
with club. He still fought, and

was shot twice, one of the bullets
lodging in his leg and one passing
through his arm. He stated he
became unconscious at this time
and when he awoke he was on
certain street, the street name he
did not know. He also claims he
awakened in the car barn, but did
not know how he got there.
When found this morning, Lang
was partially wrapped up in a rub
Der blanket which had been taken
from under one or the seats of the
car. His leg was swollen to a
terrible size and nothing can be
done with it until the swelling goes
down. He remembers every minute
detail of the evening of torture he
spent, but doesn't remember where
the thing happened or how he got
to the car barn. The police do
not believe his story.

toned. He is a stockholder in one
of the big teams.
The reason Of the dropping of
the northern teams Is on account
of the large amount of money lost
during the past three years. Seat
tie has lost in that time about
$4,000. Tacoma will break even
after the sale of their players for
the season just over. Portland
broke even this year owing to the
Lewis and Clark fair, but has lost
money ever since 1t entered into
the new league. San Francisco
made good money this year. Los
Angeles made a little money, be-
cause the owner of the team also
owned the Frisco ball park and re-
ceived 40 per cent of the daily gate
receipts. Oakland lost money this
year. Can anything be more logical
than that the northern teams
should be cut off?

Chased from Missoula to Spo-

G. Green, and assaulted on the
street last night because he had
Green arrested for stealing a pair
of pants from him, is the story told
by Austin Bernard, an express man,
when asking today for a warrant
for the arrest of Green.
Some months ago, Bernard was
running a tailoring shop in Missou-
la and lost a pair of pants. The
pants were found in the possession
OF Green. Bernard testified that
the trousers belonged to him and
Green was sent to Jail for Is days.
When he got out he swore to get
even with Bernard for stating the
clothing was his. Bernard came TO
Spokane and started an express
wagon. He had forgotten all about

was abused by Green, but drove
away and did not see him again
until last night when he and three
other men were walking up Wash
ington street. One of the men
called Bernard's attention to his be-
ing followed. He turned around
and found Green behind him. Green
went away and the three men and
Bernard started up the street
again. After going for a little dis.
lance they were assaulted by
Green who hurled three big rocks
at them. None of the rocks took
effect and Green ran into the col
ored saloon on Main avenue. He
was followed by Bernard, but when
he got to the saloon Green had
disappeared.
Today he got a warrant.

COLORED man SHOT in TWO

the car men just going off duty but

Lang went to the house occupied

fight in which he was shot twice.

saw an advertisement of this COM

to the professional man. There
were apparently no strings to 1t.
His credit was good, so he deter

accordingly called at the Office of
