AT the roller rink last night, sport
lovers were furnished an exhibition the
equal of which has never been seen in

Never has more satisfied crowd left

The match marked the initial ap-

BURGLAR, MURDERER
AND HONEST WORKMAN.

st. Louis Times: There has been in
tense excitement in Springfield Mass,
over the murder of Martha B. Black
stone and the confession Of Bertram
@. Spencer. who admits that he COM
mitted the crime and that he has been
leading sort Of Jekyll and Hyde ex-
istence for many yearsc. According to
his own story he has worked at some
legitimate occupation during the day
and turned burglar at night His
operations have extended to various
parts of the country, but Springfield has
engaged his attention for the last two
years, and he has delighted in the
stories Of his exploits there as the
masked burglar
Apparently his case is destined to at
tain some celebrity because of point
that Is raised concerning his RESPONSE
bility for his actions. His criminal i'm
stincts began to appear when he was
still boy, and their origin is ascribed
to the effects Of blow on the head
which was dealt him by his father
What value there is in this defense

clear that Spencer can be closely as

While he is best at 155 pounds, Adam

ing he made 152 for Prokos.
A Worthy Opponent.
Jack Prokos. the Greek, proved q
worthy opponent of the champion and
despite the fact that he weighed in
nine pounds lighter than Adamson his
bursts of speed and ability got him
out of more than one dangerous place.
Time sand time again the Greek would
spin out from a hammerlock or half
Nelson and his bridge work was ex-
.cenent.
In the first match Adamson was UNI
der large part of the time with the
foreigner working at Top speed in an
effort to secure a hold that would
bring his opponents shoulders TO the
mat 1t was utterly impossible for
him to hammerIock the Chicago man
who giant like arms resisted all eff
forts. The bridge work of Adamson
was near phenomenal at times. The
first fall came at the end of s6 minutes
81 seconds with crotch and arm hold
after the men had gone to the mat four
times and regained their feet.
The Second Fall.
Both men showed bursts of speed
during the second bout which showed
they were. In beautiful condition The
applause which came from the crowd
indicated an appreciation of the work.
The Greek was cheered loudly in get

The second fall came with a crotch
and half Nelson.

The Importance Of automobiles in the
political life Of North Dakota cities
was shown Monday at the city election
in Devils Lake. One Of the candidates
for alderman had made a scathing
speech concerning some of the candi-
dates up for election the previous day.
This seed fell on fertile ground, a plan
was formulated, man routed out Of
bed at IL O'Clock, to gain his consent
to become a candidate, and plans were
laid to get out after the votes early the
next morning in motor cars. The plan
worked and seven wera kept running
at top speed under the direction OF the
political managers of the Opposition"
with the result that the ii p. m. of the
night before candidate WIN out, two to
