TO DELAY BUILDING
EIks Practically Decide to Delay
Club House Building for
the Next Three Years
TO REMODEL MUSIC HALL

| The Elks Club House Association
at a meeting held on Sunday after
noon practically decided that it would
be impracticable to proceed with
new building on the Central Music
Hall site. at this time, and it is prob.
able that the new building will not. be
started for three years.
lon account of the prices of labor
and building materials at this time it
was almost the unanimous sentiment
ofthe stockholders present that the
building should be held up for term
Of three years. It was practically de-
cided to make elaborate changes in
thepresent building SO that it would
beYsuited for the uses of theelodge
nntilsuch time as new building is
put mp. yg
These changes will include the
bracing of the building with steel
beams SO as to make it perfectly safe
andla complete overhauling sof the
second floor. The jones' 'Brien
Amusement company has consented
togtake three year lease of the first
floor of the building and 10 make inn
provements costing in the neighbor-
hood of $1,000. The front of the
building will be entirely changed
and the first floor room will be rebuilt
SO as to convert it into theater
building
The work of rebuilding will be
started just as soon as the Bijou sea-
son closes on June Is and it is planned
to have the building ready for reopen
ing by the first of September.
The second floor of the building
which is to be used by the lodge will
be refnished so that the Elks will
have one of the finest places IN the
state. The stock holders will have
another meeting week from next
Thursday night, at which time levy
on the stock will be made and officers
elected. It is planned to have the
club take immediate possession. Of the
building and it will be taken over free
of all encumbrance.
It is expected that this new lodge
hall and club rooms will be ready for
occupancy by the first of next August.

MUST CO TO JURY
Judge Belden Refuses to Send
Jacob Gerbovitz to the
Insane Asylum
SPECIAL PLEA BY DEFENSE
Jury to be Asked to Pass Upon the San
ity of the Prisoner Before the
State Presents Evidence
Against Him
SPECIAL PLEA BY DEFENSE

A jury must decide the fate of
Jacob Gerbovitz, who was placed on
trial IN the Circuit Court on Monday
afternoon on a charge of attempted
wife murder On Tuesday morning
Judge Belden, after hearing great
mass of evidence in regard to the
mental condition of the man, handed
down decision declining to commit
him to mad house and instructing
that he be- tried by a jury Oh the IN
formation filed against him.
The case was taken up again in the
afternoon and Peter Fisher, who re-
presents the defendant, at once stated
that he would make a special plea of
insanity and place the evidence before
the jury before the regular evidence
in the case was heard. The jury was
then called and the work of getting
a jury try the case was started.
The hearing of Gerbovitz was
had been called on Monday afternoon,
and Peter Fisher who represents the
defendant at once made special
plea of insanity, and after long
conference between the court and the
attorneys it was decided that the evil
dence should be heard by the Judge,
and the jury was excused until next
morning. The court then had lesson
in brain storms.
Gerbovitz was called to the stand
and he told the court complete story
of his life. At tim es he showed signs
of raving, but the story was told in a
connected manner, but at times Ger
bovitz was highly excited. He told
of his meeting with the girl and their
marriage, and of the way she had
treated him after the wedding. He
declared that his wife had re-
fused to have anything to do with
him. He stated that he had at one
time threatened to kill himself, but
the wife had prevented him.
IS DR.. G. f.! Adams, DR.. J. L.. Cleary
and DR.. H.. AS Robinson were called
to the stand as medical experts, and
altof them stated that after their ex-
animation aof the man, at the request
of the district attorney and the
county Judge, they had arrived at the
decision that he was not insane, but
that he was a. physical wreck and near
the border line of insanity.
DR.. Robinson stated that it was his
opinion that Gerbovitz knew a great
deal more than he pretended to know
aud that his physical condition was
largely to blame for his seeming mad
ness. After the physicians had been
on the stand Sheriff Pfennig was
called and he told of the actions of
Gerbovitz while in Jail. Gerbovitz
was recalled to the stand for further
questioning, after which an adjourn
ment vas taken until the next day.
Tuesday morning Gerbovitz was re-
called and he showed signs Of raving
Mrs. Gerbovitz's mother was then
called to the stand by the district at
torney and she told the story of the
married life Of the couple. Her evi-
dence tended to show that Gerbovitz
was not insane.

CAUSE OF CERTAIN DREAMS.
Each Type Has Its Origin In Matters
Purely Physical.

Every dream. like every laugh or
tear, has Its cause" said the psychol-
ogist. Every well-known type of
dream has cause equally we'll known.
You dream, for instance, that you
are In church, or at the theater or on
the street with hardly any clothes
on you, and you nearly die of shame.
The bed coverings falling of is the
cause of this dream.
You dream that dog has bitten
you or an enemy has given you q
stab with knife. Some slight pain
cramp, touch of rheumatism-is
behind all such dreams.
"Innumerable persons dream Of fy-
ing. Time and time again they dream
this dream. 1t is because the respira-
tion of sleep, the great, deep, billowy
breaths, rising and falling rhythmic
ally, are so akin to flying that they
bring visions of It to the sleeper's
mind
An uncomfortable position in the
bed causes dreams Of painful effort, Of
unendurably hard work, like mountain
climbing or the lifting of heavy
weights.
Il say nothing OF the mental causes
Of dreams. since we all know well
enough that the things we talk or
think about awake are apt to be talked
and thought about that night In
Sleep"
