Trees, like animals, eat, sleep,

tear their clothes and have to mend

Hutchinson's bid to become the
home of the state fair ought not to be
helped along much by the findings of
the special master appointed by the
supreme court to take the testimony
in the custer proceedings begun by the
state against the city and it's promi-
nent officials. He found that these off,
ciais and the city practically connived
at violations of the prohibitory law in
assessing fines against saloons, joints
and houses of ill-repute which were
practically a system of licensing them
to do business. A city controlled by
such men, who are presumed to be
representative of the entire popula-
ton, can surely not set up good
claim that it is a proper place for the
holding of state exposition.

Curious French Justice.

The Seine assizes jury has just de-
c1ared Trombetta, a NeapoIitan actor
and singer, not guilty of the murder of
a box office clerk of the Scala Music
Hall, whom he shot last summer The
whole trouble came about when from
BETA, presenting four so-called free
tickets for the Scala, and, asking for
the best seats, received the worst. AL
though he introduced himself, no one
remembered ever having heard of him.
Trombetta was accompanied by his
wife. his mother-in-law, and his broth
er-in-law. The four argued with the
manager, his clerks, and the man in
the box office. Trombetta finally
smashed a mirror with his cane, and
the fight was on in full blast.
Suddenly the Neapolitan noticed the
box office clerk graphing with his wife.
He drew a revolver and shot the man
dead. At his trial he brought a large
volume of testimonials to prove his
