YOU LOST

DOPE FiEND TRIES TO SELL

STORE THAT HE SAYS CAME

A second hand dealer can dispose
of nearly everything on earth, but
when 1t comes to finding market
for second hand skulls he throws
up his hands. At least a couple of
Hebrews on North Monroe st. did
yesterday. The sku.. was offered
for sale by "Dopey Joe" Durham. a
morphine flend. Joe arrived with
the discarded headpiece mot his
own and opened negotiations
whereby he hoped to realize two
bits.
The goods were brought in wrap
ped in a newspaper and the He
brews were interested until the ex-
hibit was displayed on the counter
and greeted them with a toothless
grin. Then they shouted for the
police.
For why should second hand
man buy a second hand skull, even
If 1t was In fairly good condition.
Joe urged that he had just resur-
rected 1t near the Spokane brewery.
And he'd part with 1t for 10 cents

Rockefeller rose late this morn

OF the Standard Offices Rockefeller
shook hands with the reporters. He
cheerfully posed for newspaper
photographers, removing his hat,
raising his cane and doing every
thing they requested. you're too
slow" he remarked to the photog-
raphers.
He admitted he is not as bad
looking as he has been painted and
answered requests for interviews
by inviting the reporters to play
golf with him in Ohio.
The last time Rockefeller was be-

York and manufacturers commit

the formation of the oil trust.

BROTHER IN Law ASKS

said a criminal lawyer OF Boise,
speaking of the trial of William d.
Haywood, accused of the murder Of
Ex-Governor oteunenberg.
II am SO badly tangled up" this
lawyer continued, that l cannot
figure out who Is on trial nor what
crime Is charged.
1--WE are told that Meyer, Hay
wood and Pettibone were going to
be tried for the murder of Steuen-
berg; we were promised by Hawley,
Borah and Gooding that they would
produce the goods: we were told
that an actual conspiracy existed
which murdered men and destroyed
property with impunity; let us see
what Is the result.
1.-The trial has lasted 81 actual
court days. A couple OF witnesses
have proven that Steunenberg was
killed, that Orchard was in town at
the time, that he was arrested and
confessed.
His connection with them has
not been established by any wit
ness. save himself. -

BRUNOBROS,
ON TRIAL
UUs

The preliminary hearing of the
case against Frank and Tom Bruno,
dive keepers, who are charged with
attempting to bride Chief Of Police
Rice, began this morning before
Justice Hinkle. 1t will be con-
tinued after 3 o'clock this after
noon. The first witness called was
the chief, who testified to receiving
the letter containing 5000. Nothing
was said by Tom Bruno, who de-
livered it, about any money being
in it. Both Brunos deny any
knowledge Of any money being con-
tanned therein.
Attorney Kimball for the Brunos,
went over the case particularly as
to the chiefs association with the
Brunos. The chief testified that
in the several visits he had had
from Bruno there had never been
any reference or intimation Of a
bribe. Fred Pearson. policeman In
the Main block, testified as to the
restriction placed in force by the
chief, the resembling of which was
supposed to be the motive OF the
alleged attempt to bride. Some in
teresting facts developed as fol-
lows:
Chief Rice had promised to close
on July Is unless the owner or own
ers, paid fine Of $3.50 to the city
for renting the property for inn
moral purposes; Bruno leases the
building from r. N. Mclean, sup
posed to be agent for r. T. Daniel,
the Florida philanthropist and Sun
day school teacher; Attorney Daw-
son Is agent and collects the rent;
Bruno pays rental of $500
monthly; Attorney Kimball had
asked the chief to either modify his
restrictions and allow the women
to sell liquor the same as in other
houses, or close the place alto
gether and by SO doing make it pos
sible for Bruno to legally refuse to
pay the rent contracted for in the
lease; since the new administration
went into ONCE, Bruno has steadily
lost money; 25 Of the women have
given up their rooms; of the IS
rooms, 81 rent for $11 a week, 4 at
"a. 20 at $IL; the women sold beer
at rs cents a drink and 81 bottle.
Chief Rice got into mild tilt
with the Bruno lawyer when the
latter asked II anyone had wrong
fully approached him and asked
that conditions be modified. The
chief thought a minute and then re-
piled, you have" A laugh follow
ed. Mr.. Kimball then went on to
explain that as representative Of
the Main block proprietor he had
only asked that Rice grant the
women the same privileges he did
other women, such as selling liquor
and drinking In the Surprise sa-
loon, which is owned by Bruno and
is located on the ground floor Of the
Main block.
Prosecutor Laughan finished his
argument at noon, his efforts being

meat DEALERS and RESTAURANT
MEN MUST ABANDON DOPE HABIT
Inspector eIttrick Finds Adequate Ordnance
and viii Proceed With 10 enforcement.

The meat dealer, restaurant man,

furious preservatives or coloring

ed for sale, Is due to have trouble
with City Meat Inspector Bittrick
without waiting Tor the council to
replace the ordinance recently in

Bittrick has been going over city
regulations carefully for the pur-
pose Of framing up another or
dinance that would overcome the
weakness of that the meat dealers
defeated. He finds that this or
dinance was merely a minor regula-
ton passed by the council to classi-
fy In a manner preservatives that
would be allowed. The real ordi-
nance governing this point is No.

This last ordinance has never
been assailed and the city's legal
department finds no flaw in 1t. The
provisions are sweeping and ex-
plicit They make it obligatory
upon dealers in meat, groceries and
milk to permit uninterrupted in
spection and to answer under oath
