1t is only last January that one
of the favored contractors of the
city lost over 5000 playing poker
in one night in cigar store near
Howard and Riverside. He paid
the loss in two checks. He re-
naged on his loss by having his
checks stopped the next day and
then went to the police station, got
an officer to go with him and COM
PEELED the return of the checks un-
der a threat to prosecute. The
checks were returned, no arrests
were made, and the affair hushed
up.
One man has said that to be per-
mitted to operate good poker
game, with three or four tables,
and the right to dispense booze, is
worth $500 a month for protection.

have to get out from under or per-
nit the stories now afloat to be

Haskell Asks More Time to Prepare for Trial in
 Land Frauds

TULSA, Okla, May 2.-The trial ot Governor Haskell of Oklahoma, and five business men of Muskogee, in the Creek Indian town lot ease, was called in federal court today.
 Haskell asked for a continuance on the ground that access to government docGments bearing on the charges had been denied him by the interior depart ment and by the Indian land agency at Muskogee.
 s'The government has used every means to thwart us in arranging our defense,' asserted Orrville smith, counsel for Haskell. "At Muskogee we found the papers had been spirited away by government detectives. We then were told to go to Washington, but when we arrived there were told that the department of the interior was too busy with the Ballinger-Pinchot in- vestigation to attend to us.
 Argument on the motion for contlnu- ance was set for tomorrow by Judge John Marshall of Salt Lake, who IS sit ting on the case.

GLOBE TAXES PAIR IF GAMES FROM
 SAFF0RD
Saturdays Game Easy, but Sunday Session Was
 Close Going

In two well played baseball games at Stafford Saturday and Sunday, the Globe team won two victories, taking the Saturday game by the easy score of 9 to i, and annexing the closing con- test by the score of to in ten inning struggle.
 Saturdays game was easy for Globe as the Stafford team was unable to pre- sent a full lineup. The valley boys played fairly good game. but the visitors managed to swat the leather hard and often and had no difficulty in annexing the long end of the score
 Sundays game was different. The Globe boys took the lead in the early innings, but Stafford rallied at the close of the contest and each side had scored six runs at the end of the ninth. II fell to Globe to break the tie in the next act and as Stafford could not sue ceed in sending man around the bases the second game went the same route as the first.
 The members of the Globe team were well entertained and spent very en ioyable visit in the valley.

MORE EXPERT TALK IN HEARING OF
 DR. HYDE
Toxicologist Says He Found Little Poison in Stom-
 ach of Swope

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 2.-Dr. Walter s. Haines, the Chicago toxicol- ogist, told at the Hyde murder trial to- day the alleged results of his search for poisons.
 Insofar as the toxicologist s personal investigations were concerned, he ad- mitted that they had resulted in finding but little dangerous drugs. With but one exception, said Dr. Haines, he found cyanide only when collaborating with Dr. Victor G. Vaughn of Ann Arbor Mich.
 In part of the stomach of Colonel Thomas H. Swope, testified Dr. Haines he found two-hundredths of a grain of strychnine. The physician said small trace of the same drug was located IT the brain.
 With the aid of Dr. Vaughn, Dr Haines testified, he discovered some cy ande in the stomach. Only slight traces of strychnine were claimed by Dr Haines to have been found by him il the stomach and liver of Chrismar Swope. It was the belief of himself and Dr. Vaughn, said the witness, that there were some signs of cyanide il their test of the stomach, but they were unable to locate definitely any o1 this drug.
 Dr. Haines said both himself and Dr Vaughn found cyanide in the capsules which Dr. Hyde is alleged to have thrown away.
 Strychnine was found in the ejects O Miss Margaret Swope both by hlmsel and Dr. Vaughn, said Haines.

Spotty Game Replete With Errors Again Puts Val

MIAMI HAS SEVEN
 RUNS IN ONE INNING
Excitement Makes Up What Is Lacking in Real
 Baseball

/ In game replete with both good and bad baseball, Copper Hill annexed a second victory from Miami at School Hill park Sunday afternoon, by the score of 10 to &.
 Things looked easy for the Cliff Dwellers in the early part of the game, ,as one tally was chalked up in the op- ening act, four more in the second spasm and another single run in the fourth. Then the Miami bunch got busy and started run getting seance that looked like easy money for them, but the Hill boys finally nosed out in a ninth inning rally and quit with the long end of the score.
 The Miami aggregation took one in the fifth inning, just by way of starter but the real fireworks came in the sev- enfh. Here with five hits and bunc h of loose play by Copper Hill that would have done credit to a second rate sand lot team, the Miamis stacked up seven runs and apparently had everything cinched.
 In the eighth inning, however, Cop per Hill came right back for four more runs and in spite of all that Miami could do, the score stood 10 to in favor of Copper Hill when the game ended.
 The game was not up to standard in the matter of real baseball, but there was plenty of excitement on tap during good part of the contest and the fans had fairly satisfactory entertain ment

ALPINE LAKES VANISHING
Same Drying Up Process Is to Be
Noted in Many Other Mountain
GUS Regions.

The gradual drying UP of mountain
lakes in arid regions like parts Of the
Rocky mountains, western Siberia and
Turkestan is accompanied, the latest
statistics say, by the disappearance of
numbers of the smaller Alpine lakes
or their shrinkage in size to mere
ponds. Within a hundred years the
number of Alpine lakes has dwindled
from 3,278 to 2,466.
The same drying up process is no.
ticed in other mountainous regions of
medium elevation and normal rainfall
such as the Reisengebirge on the Aus
tro-German frontier and the Austrian
Tatra. Not fewer than 118 lakes In
the Tyrolese Alps alone have COM
pletely vanished and even in the lower
Bavarian and Thuripgian hills there
are fewer lakes now than generation
ago.
There are various theories concern
Ing this drying up process; the con-
slant erosion of the beds of mountain
streams and the percolation Of water
into subterranean channels are the
most generally accepted explanations.
Vegetation on the lake bottom is re-
sponsible in many cases for the dry

PETTY PRIDE is LUDICROUs
Clearer Judgment Often Would Make
Us Ashamed of the Things OF
Which We Boast.

Nearly everybody is proud of some
thing. That is one of the curious
streaks of human nature. have seen
a released jailbird strutting before her
envious companions because of the
number of occasions on which she had
done time" One man is proud be-
cause he once was presented to a
king; another one because he is the
second cousin Of prize fighter This
person is proud of his ancestry, and
the other because he is self-made
man." The reasons for pride which
persons display are many and curious
and various. Most Of us do not out
grow the childhood boastfulness. Yet
il we could see ourselves from the
height of the pyramids, or from one
of the tombs of the Chinese emperors
outside of Picking, or from cell in the
recently uncovered monastery Of Bud
dha at Sarnath, or from mountain
side on Mars, we might perceive the
futility and vanity not to say ludic-
rousness, of our petty pride.
Often the things Of which men are
proud are those of which, were their
judgment clearer, they would be
ashamed.-W. T. Ellis, in Baltimore

Long before electricity received

Aryans, some eight or more thousand
years before our era knew what fire

1t gave out cracking sound. When
they spoke of that sound they used
the word "sparg," and it survived the
ages and has become our spark"
This "sparg' grew into the Teutonic
base "sprak," from which has come
numerous words that imply making a
