Peter Breen. one Of the best
known attorneys in Butte, was fined
$500 for contempt of court yester-
day by Judge Michael Donlan, who
punished the lawyer for accusing
the judge of having deliberately
drawn the jury panel in an irregu-

to prove his accusation if the court

of the courts officers to be called
as witnesses.

The statement was made recent
through the sporting columns OF
this paper that the Rossland Hook
ey players were dissatisfied with
their treatment by the manage
ment of the local skating rink.
This statement has been specific
ally denied from reliable sources
and this paper takes pains to re-
port the statement. Here are the
facts as stated by a member of the
team in a public place before a
number of bystanders:
"The team had played twice with
the Spokane Amateur Athletic
club team and they were to get pay
for their work. They received a
little less than SO for the two
games.
They said they were not treated
as they expected to be and had
been told they would be, and that
only one of the boys, after borrow
ing some money, was able to leave
town.
Does that sound as though the
boys received the best treatment
possible or were they talking
through their hat.

gives them an unusual look upon an
American gridiron.
Each player is tall, strong and
sinewy, long of limb and thin of
flank. They resemble a pack of
hunting dogs, or a string of run
ming horses, and the way they
dodge about, bound high in the air,
or run at an amazing speed, has
astonished the Americans whom
they have played against. Notice
the difference in the uniforms worn
by these players and the heavy
padded uniforms worn by American
players of the Rugby game.
