SKATE SAILING LIVELY SPORT.
Sailor May Travel a Mile a Minute
with No Power Save the Wind.


with No Power Save the Wind.
To be ones self the mast and the
tiller and the. boat-sailing and skat-
ing blended at the speed OF high
class lOcomotive-this is the sport OF
skate-sailing, says writer in Country
Life in America. In an automobile.
in a racing keel, on a blooded horse,
the man that guides by clutch or till
er or bride is piece of dead freight,
being to the extent of his weight =
drag on the speed; but skate-sailing
alone, of sports that attack time,
makes use of the guidance itself as
a part of the propulsive force.
The man himself is both sail area
and live ballast. With forty-1nlle
breeze behind him. and clean, green
ice ahead, the skate-sailer comes the
nearest we shall ever get to the wing
footed god that slid down rainbow.
Wings on his feet. and his arms teth-
cred to great white wings. he is the
Tyre of the west wind in kind OF
rhapsody of motion. He is as sensl-
tive to the situation as photograph
ic plate. Every tremor of the sail &C.
ton passes through him, and he
adapts himself momently to the vari-
atoms of an off-shore breeze.
The old world dream was OF a CEN
tallr-man-horse-t natures in one
body. In this Mountaineering sport
we have realized a man-bcat. The
effort to prove that man may cover
a mile a minute. unaided by steam
or gasoline, by the propulsive power
of wind alone, will be made this ad-
vancing season by some slzate-sailers
at least.

sent to the hospital and Conner made
a statement in the presence of Dilling-

Mr.. Dillingham; in conversation with
THE APPEAL expressed himself as
highly indignant and much surprised
at the attitude of the Hennepin coun-
ty authorities in not further \investi-
eating this matter and in determining
to not make any attempt to have the
murderer arrested because of the ne
cessary expense which would natural
ly occur Mr.: Dillingham; however
does not intend to let the matter drop
and will use his utmost endeavors to
have the matter officially investigated;
as he has the names of four persons
who witnessed the shooting.
To the credit OF Messrs. Williams
and Walker be it said that when they
learned: the serious condition OF Con-
nor. they Immediately sent'a member
Of the company back to Minneapolis
with instructions to spare neither
time. trouble nor expense in the care
OF Common while living and to carry
out the necessary arrangements in
case of Connor's death, all of which
was done. The remains of Conner
were placed in handsome casket
and in charge of the man sent by
Williams and Walker sent to Chicago
Thursday evening where they will be
met by the parents of Conner and
be inferred in that city. All the Sc
lectoIs of casket. ETC., were made by
Mr.. Dillingham; and every cent of
expense on account of the care, death
and transportation of the remains was
bOurn by Williams and Walker.

BIG CIRCUS DUE NEXT
Varsity Armory Being Put Into Cor
dition For Show.

Varsity Armory Being Put Into Con-
dition For Show.
The university armory is busy
place nowadays and as the date for
the returns of the great university
circus draws near there is little else
within the big building except the
continual preparation OF the circus
troupe.
DR.. Cooke and his large corps of as
sistants are working night and day to
perfect every detail of the big show
and when the opening performance is
given on March 10 there will not he
a thing lacking which could in any way
add to the entertainment and comfort
of the spectators. The students and
faculty interested in the big show are
working as never before to make the
event the browning feature OF the col
lege year and from every indication
they will more than succeed.
The features of the big show this
year are too many and varied to be
described. The program will include
every circus performance ever pre-
scented to AN American audience,
which means a whole lot, besides
many entirely new and original stunts
which will far eclipse anything in
the circus line that even the famous
untiring Barnum ever conceived at
the height of his career.
The big show is not given alone
for university people. 1t is given Tor
everybody in the. state or outside the
state of Minnesota and for that rea'
son it is to be made this year more
than ever cosmopolitan affair."
While there will be much that will IN
terest the university students there
will be nothing that will not appeal
lust as much to the man or woman
from other parts of the city as it does
to the inha bitants of the campus.

ATTEMPT TO SHIELD A
MURDERER.

Richard Conner Shot and Fatally
Wounded by Ike Rivers-No Of
fetal Investigation.
On Friday evening of last week
there was a row raised between Rich
ard Conner and Ike Rivers, both mem
bers of the Williams & Walker Co.. at
the Bijou theatre. Minneapolis, in ref
erence to a wager in which several
of the members of the company were
interested. Connors and Rivers had
some words about the matter. Con-
nor turned to leave the dressing room
in which the trouble arose when he
heard pistol shot and turning
around he saw Rivers making for a
revolver which was lying on the floor
and he also started toward the gun,
but Rivens beat him to it. Conner
again tried to escape from the room
when Rivens shot him in the back. It
was thought at the time that the
wound was not of a serious nature
and for the sake of the company Con-
nor and all persons present agreed
that the statement should be made
that the shooting was purely accident
al Conner was sent to Asburv hos
pital and the performance proceeded
for the evening as if no trouble had
arisen.
Saturday afternoon j. H. Dilling-
ham of St. Paul attended tie matinee
and as he was an old friend of the
Conner family the absence OF Conner
on the stage caused him to feel that
he ought to make some investigation
iii the matter and manner. of his being
shot. He very soon learned that Riv-
ers who had done the shooting had
been hustled off to New York immedi-
ately. This caused Dillingham; to
doubt the accident story and he pro-
ceeded with his investigation. He
telephoned to the hospital and found
that Conner was in more serious
condition than the daily papers had
stated. On Monday he and his wife
visited Connor at the hospital and
learned from his lips that the shooting
was not accidental. Then learning
from the attending physician that
Conner could not live forty-eight
hours he Immediately wired COnnOrs
parents at Covington, KY. They wired
back their inability to reach Mime
apolis in the prescribed time and in
structed Dillingham; to take full
charge of the case in every way. Dill
bingham then proceeded with his in
vestigation and on Tuesday afternoon
he and friend had another interview
| with the physician who still main
tanned that there was no hope for
Cornor's recovery. Dillingham; then
| Informed Conner what the physician
had said and asked him if he would
make a statement to the county at
torney and Conner said he would.
| Dillingham; then .endeavored to get
the county attorney to take the state
ment but there seemed to be desire
J on the part of that official to delay
! the. matter. Dillingham; also found
| out that Mr.. Hayes, the manager OF
the theatre, the hospital physician
| and the county attorney had had
! consultation in the morning in which
the fact that the shooting was not &C.
| cidental was fully made known and
the critical condition of Conner. Yet
at o'clock in the afternoon no steps
