The outrages continued after his con-
viction, and an agitation that was start
ed by his lawyers and inquiry by Conan
Doyle and others resulted in his release
after he lad served two years.
He is living in Yarmouth this week
100 miles away from the scene Of the
stabbing. but IN the same field where
the previous manning occurred two
valuable horses were stabbed in the dark
hours Of Wednesday morning and an
other horse was stabbed at Wallsall In
the same district this morning.
This has wrought the assembled Grim
inOlogists from all over the country 70

that he is one OF the respected residents
Of the neighborhood and has dual per

prosperous citizen; a. Hyde he IS a
maniac. with q fixed idea Of destroying
cattle In a particular way, always stab
bling them and ripping them in the same
part Of the anatomy with a long, sharp
knife.
The most amazing theory OF all comes
from a gentleman who arrived from a

MANY REASONS FOR
RETURNING THANKS

Denver, Nov. saturday evening
Governor Buchtel issued his Thanks
giving proclamation. 1t follows;
"In the providence of God we have
in the United States two national Sab
bath days. They are exactly six months
apart. One of these national Sabbaths
is our Thirtieth of May. That is our
national sacrament day when we com
mcmorate the sufferings of the brave
men who died that the nation might
live. The other national Sabbath comes
on the last Thursday in November 1t
is the Jubilee day of the year, when
we rejoice with glad song over the
amazing mercics of God.
- He hath not dealt so with any ma
tion, is one of the songs of Israel. 1t
ought to be n daily song with all true
Americans. Each year we have larg-
er opportunity to influence the life of
the world. Each year we have bet
ter opportunity to work ont our des
tiny. We are to provide an asylum
for the oppressed of every land who
crave the freedom to do right. 1t is
not our businses to provide an asylum
for those who crave the freedom to do
wrong. We need frequently to remind
ourselves that it is the business of the
nation to create men and women OF
fine moral fiber.

TIGERS DEFEAT
WATER BABIES
Grand Junction Boys Too Heavy for G|enwood
in Football Game Basketball Contest
Was Declared Tie

Saturday will long be remembered
by the local high school girls and boys
as a day of pleasure. Our girls met
the Grand Junction girls for game Of
basketball and the boys played the
Junction gridiron warriors. The re
suits of both games are highly credit
able to Glenwood.
In spite of all the efforts put forth
by G. NJ. Kcck, accidents and delays
prevented the teams and a number Of
their friends from arriving at Grand
Junction until about $3.50 p. m. This
disarranged our hosts plans. concern
ing lunch, which proved very detrimen
tai to the local girls. Unsuccessful eff
forts were made to get something that
would serve temporarily to allay the
pangs of hunger. This was unknown
to officials and coaches, so the girls
played the first half of their game, he
ginning at four o'clock, without having
had anything to eat since early morn
ing. The GIenwood girls were in a
much weakened condition because OF
this. and to add to the handicap Were
compelled to play in two inches of al
kali dust and rocks. Despite all this.
at the end of the first half the score
stood only to $ in favor of Grand
Junction. Between halves the Glen
woods were furnished sandwiches and
coffee, and team more like themselVes
met the .Junctionites at the beginning
of the second half.
In this half play had progressed only
= few minutes when the superiority of
the local high school girls was abun
iantly evident Their team work was
beautiful and they We're playing the
fastest basketball, having run the score
to II to II in their favor. At this
juncture the only accident of the day
occurred. Carrie Thomas, running cen.
ter for the locals, stepped on one of
the stones in the field of play, spraining
her ankle, which ncccssitated her leav-
ing the game. The home team had no
substitute for that position and only
one substitute Mt all, a player who has
been playing basketball for only two
or three weeks. However, she entered
the game, though it was then too dark
to play. and the team in this torn up
condition shifted position and game!y
proceeded with the play. This, with
the agitation over the accident, caused
the girls to foul sufficiently for the
Grand Junction team to tie the score,
making the result II to II. We are
Justly proud of our basketball team, as
it clearly showed itself much superior
to its opponents. y
