makes. 4
There are number of clever spe-
cialities introduced throughout the
play, including original songs, duets,
quartets and dances, both fancy and
grotesque. The comedy element is
said to be a strong feature, the
characters being peculiar and typical
OF the class Of natives in the back
woods Of Arkansas.

Associated Press to The Evening" Times.
Boise, Idaho, May practically
every available room in Boise, the
capitol city of Idaho. has been reserv-
ed for lawyers, witnesses or news
paper men in attendance on the court
which will try William D. Haywood
on the charge of murder of former
Governor Steunenberg. While there
Is little or no public discussion of
the case, the under current of inter-
est runs strong and every incoming
train brings additions to the very
large number of people connected
with the case who are already on the
grounds.
That there might be some delay has
been intimated from time to time, but
the fear of this has now been disci-
pated by statements emanating from
both sides. Clarence Darrow, of
Chicago, and F. F. Richardson of
Denver, jointly leading counsel for
the defense of Haywood. have both
stated that they are ready for trial.
Counsel for the prosecution. James
H. Hawley and Senator w. E. Borah,
who have been engaged especially are
of the opinion that there will be no
further delay. An application for a
bill of particulars. filed by the de-
fense, was argued yesterday before
Judge Fremont Wood, who will try
the Haywood case, but as his decision
is not appealable it is not thought
that this will cause any pOstpOnement.

Hankinson, N. D., May 7.-Rollin
Forman, aged 8 years, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Forman, hanged himself
with a shawl strap late yesterday
afternoon.
The child was playing near the ex-
haust pipe of the gasoline engine that
runs the printing press and had tied
one end of the strap around his neck
and the other end to the exhaust pipe,
and the supposition is that the boy was
trying to see how long he could hold
his breath and had drawn the strap
too tight and lost consciousness.
His father called to him and as he
did not answer, went to see what
was the matter and found the little
lad choked. He picked him up and
took him a short distance to the hos
pital, where Drs. Spottswood, Young
and Mcdonnell did everything in their
power to revive him, but their efforts
were in vain.

TO GOVERN HER
:.
The One in Present Use Was
Constructed Many Years
Ago.

Associated Press to The Eve.i.E Times.
Chicago, May Meetings Of prom
inent local business men are sched-
uled for various parts Of the city dur
ing the week to make more agrees
sive fight for the new charter for the
city of Chicago, which is now await
ing action by the legislature at SPRING
field
The charter under which the city
Is at present operated was devised
and intended for a municipality of
much less magnitude than the city
has become. It was evidently the be-
lief of the drawers of this charter
that the city would never have a pop
ulation of more than 100000 as the
charter provisions provided only for
the wants of about that number of
people. For many years Chicago has
been greatly hampered in its business
affairs by its charter limitations, and
has frequently been unable to legally
borrow money when it was sorely
needed by the city. and when banks
stood ready and eager to make the
loan.
For several years the fight for an
enlarged charter has been in prog
ress and the measue is now pending
before the legislature. The jealousy
of the legislators of the state at large
against the increasing political in
fiuence of the city of Chicago has so
far prevented the granting of the
charter and may possibly hold it up
altogether.

held up by two masked men near
Welch's spur, a siding eighteen miles
east of Butte, at 2:15 this morning.
Engineer James Glow was shot and

the robbers jumped from the engine
and ran down the mountain side, dis

Legislative Activity Brings

Associated Pres. to Tho Evening Time.

Associated Press to Tho Evening Times.
Chicago, May 1.-THE Tribune to-
day says: Bucketshops throughout
the west and in many states in the
south appear to be nearly at the end
of their existence. Concerted legis-
lative action against them in several
different states and the passage of
stringent laws prohibiting them from
further operations, together with the
activity of the Chicago board of trade
in prosecuting cases against them, has
caused many of the leading bucket
shop concerns which have had a net
work of private wires covering prac-
tically every state in the west, south
and northwest. to decide to withdraw
from business. 1t is understood that
the leading bucketshop concern in
Indiana is preparing to wind up its
affairs by the middle of June, which is
the time set for their closing up by
the state authorities under the law
recently passed prohibiting bucket
shops in that state.
Iowa and Missouri have passed
similar laws and bills are pending
in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Massa-
chusetts. as we'll as in the Canadian
northwest provinces. Several of the
most extensive systems will be out
of operation in six weeks.
