After peeling Frank Kaustopolis'
pate with billiard ball as the
climax in bunch of i'll feeling ex-
listing between them, Gus Kara
manos fled last night and the po-
lice are looking for him. Kausto-
polls is under the care of the emer-
gency hospital surgeon. The mis-
sile removed piece of his scalp
and knocked him senseless for
some little time. The two have
been quarreling ever since Klaus
topolis told the police that Kara
manos stole cigars from the Inland
cigar store last year. They had a
lively tilt week or so ago. Klaus
topolis was arrested for assault and
was acquitted.

Bob Brown posted notice at

notifying each Indian that he
would be fined IS If he failed to
show up for practice by 10 O'Clock
this morning. He's out to down

At 1920 Bob was still downtown,
figuring how he himself would get
put to the grounds on time. Sar-
castle fans might imagine that Bob
was busy all the while figuring out
those last two games with the
Turks. That's wrong He was fig
uring on taking this entire series

Ex-Mayor Moore has an appre-

Spokane keeps executive officials
mildly interested while they're in
service, but the aftermath is not so
bad. Mr.. Moore has comfortable
living assured, something ne pos

SCREEN Law
POW WOW

The question of abolishing. the
saloon screens in compliance With
the new state laws ia the subject
of the lengthy pow wow" between
the mayor and committee COM
prised of about a dozen saloon men
this afternoon. To abolish the
screens in some of the saloons
means that the places will have to
be remodeled. This is one of the
greatest objections that the saloon
men have to complying with the
law.
Then, too. 1t is reported that in
other cities where the screens have
been taken out altogether the trade
has fallen off remarkably in some
places.
Saloon men in Spokane declare
they cannot afford to lose any of
their trade, as it has been slow
most of the time during the last
year or so, anyway.

BOARD CALLS
RAILROAD BLUFF

Having decided to hold up rail
road crossing work on Napa street
until the o. r. & n. alters it's
diagonal crossing ON East Olive.
the board of works is now awaiting
word from the Portland railroad
office as to what the company pro-
poses to do about it. The Olive
underground crossing is placed on
bents that extend out into the
street in such fashion as to incon-
whence traffic. the company hav-
ing been allowed to build that way
on the understanding that it would
correct the fault at such time as
permanent crossing was required
The board now demands the i'm
provement, but the company de-
murs on the plea that an extensive
crossing system is projected that
will render the present crossings
useless. Having had much expert
ence with railroad excuses, the
board is inclined to insist on the
alterations necessary to safe traf-
fic.

SMITH NOT
WORRIED BY
HIS CAPTURE

Arthur Smith, now nj the county
Jail for the murder of Hoffman on
Beaver creek, is not apparently
greatly worried over his prospects,
although the prosecuting attorney
con see nothing ahead for Smith
than verdict of mans:aughter at
least. Deputy Sheriff Ryan Of Spo-
kane and Sheriff Bailey of Occur
d'Alene caught Smith late Satur-
day night on the steamer Milwau-
kee, eaded up the Occur dAlene
river. The tip that Smith had
started up the river was given the
police at Occur d'Alene, and the
two county officers overlook the
boat in launch. Smith made no
resistance and appears confident
that he has plea or self defense
that will stand.
Yesterday he was taken in an
auto to the scene of the killing.
He admitted it, but said Hoffman
was beating him with a club be-
cause he had stolen a razor from
Hoffman. Smith did not deny the
razor theft He said he tied
handkerchief around Hoffman's
neck after shooting him to stop the
blood. He shot Hoffman twice and
escaped by walking across the
country and coming into Spokane
on an East Sprague car. He stayed
here over night and then went to
Blackwell's camp, where he worked
a short time. From there he went
to Mica bay and then to Occur
d'Alene.

But thou no more with thy sweet voice
