AL. THORPE STATED FAST
MILE AT RINK LAST NIGHT
Negotiated" Mile in $780, with Ease and Finished
Stroug.-Holzer Defeated Adams, by Eight Feet,
in Chenille Race

20 seconds, in a race against Frank
Schultz. Thorpe covered the full
mile Gone more lap than Carpenter
made) in the same time that was
given Carpenter, and he performed
the feat easily.
The mile race between Holze1
and Adams was an exciting affair
and was won by Holzer, by about
eight feet, after an exceedingly nip
and-tuck contest.
Holzer slipped at the start, and
Adams gained a few feet, but Holzel
soon regained the lost distance and
gradually gained the lead, by steady
wheeling"
The boys were fearful of the
floor and were compelled to hug the
corners, finishing the race in 3
minutes and 80 seconds. Had the
floor been in better condition at the
corner, they would have made better
time.
Thorpe is very anxious to skate a
series of races against Carpenter,
who claims the small-rink roller
skating championship of the north
west, but who has not met Thorpe
this season. A. L. Wyler, manager
of the Coliseum, has authorized a
challenge to be issued to Carpenter,
on behalf of Thorpe, for series OF
races, any distance, up to three
miles, for a purse of from SIS to
500 side, the races to be skated
on the local rink, within the next
ten days.
Carpenter has been notified oil
Thorpe's desire, and it is possible
that the races will be arranged.
On account of the small margin
by which Holzer defeated Adams
last evening, it has been decided tt
have another race which will accord
ingly be pulled off tomorrow night
A race has also been planned fol-
next Tuesday evening between Man
ager Adams and Marcus Snow O:
this city. Snow has made some
fast time on the local rinl
and will doubtless make Adams e
some," with good chance of win
ming.

VS. Henry Nyhus, appellant.
1. On "a trial on charge of rape,

Ors, officers of the court, including

the several parties to the action
may request to remain" does not de-
prive the defendant of a public trial
within the statutory and constitutions
al provisions giving persons ACCUSED
of crime the right to a speedy and
public trial.
2. On trial for the offense of rape,
it is beyond the limits of proper
cross examination to permit the &C.
oused to be asked as to former ar
rests for other offenses, without the
opportunity being given by the ques-
lions to answer as to whether he was
guilty of the offense for which such
former arrests were made Estate VS..
Kent, N. D., SIG, followed).
3. On trial for the offense of
rape, it is prejudicial misconduct for
the attorney for the prosecution in
addressing the jury to urge convic.
tion lin view of the fact that you
have before you two girls whose lives
have been ruined by this defendant,
etc." .
4. Such statement to the jury is
not rendered harmless or not predu-
diciaq by a general caution in the in
situations to the Jury that mis-state-
ment of the evidence by the attorneys
should be disregarded and the issue
determined from the evidence alone.

gingerly and expeditiously> into a
small box of a room containing un-
comfortable, dirty beds, often made
up on the damp floor, there to lie
and flight out their fltful fever. "
Helplessly confined in such filthy,
unhygienic environment; rebreathing
the atmosphere Of their hideous, ill
ventilated pen; cared for by incom-
petent, unframed guards, or social
ed nurses, some pulled through
many others died.
No wonder people fought against
being sent to pest-house, dreading
Its discomforts and the ignominy at
tached to it more than they feared
the disease they were afflicted with;
no wonder such places fell into worse
repute as resorts for the sick than
the opprobrious ''poorhouse" just
lover the hills" no wonder contag-
ion fiourished and epilemics prevail
ed when people, through fear Of such
infernos, were driven to secrete their
infectious affections.
Nor is this picture overdrawn or
exaggerated. Scores Of similar ones
or worse, exist today, scattered over
the United States, in the smaller
cities, of which an examination or an
Incarceration within will serve to
verify my statements. But they are
disappearing-slowly. In their stead
up-to-date hospital accommodations
have been constructed-or are being
constructed-by the larger cities and
by some of the smaller ones also.

visit municipality after municipality
the country over, and the only estab-
lished institutionary accommodations
found for contagious sicknesses-if
any were luckily discovered for in
spection at all-were usually forlorn,
dingy, spooklike buildings, set in a
sequestered, tangled wilderness as
remote from human habitations as
conditions would permit.

STYLE THAT ALL WELCOME
Combination Lingerie Both Comfort
able and Suitable to the
Present Fashion.

The work Of making lingerie Is very
much lightened this season by COM
bining three pieces in one. The slim
as well as the stout woman approves
of this plan. After woman has worn
the three-piece combination, which
fastens down the front, is without
belts, draw strings, plaits or gathers,
she cannot return with satisfaction to
wearing the three separate pices.
The new garment is worn over the
corset, which is placed over thin
lisle-thread skirt or a knee-length COM
bination suit.
The latter is more acceptable than
any other garment under the corset.
The shirt cannot be kept down, and
wrinkles around the edge of the cor.
set, making ridge that shows
through the outer skirt. ,':.:t;.
- Dressed in this fashion, a woman is
more comfortable than she ever. has
been. Her underclothes. are reduced
to minimum weight, her waist line is
natural and not made larger by
strings, buttons and belts, and the lack
of petticoats gives her greater free,
dom in walking.

the smaller ones are near the TOP:
The cover of. the hamper is padded
with cotton and covered with the same
material with which it is lined. This
makes the cushion for pins :, and
