Jack Johnson, worlds champion
heavy weight pugilist, who was
arrested yesterday charged with as
sault on Annette Cooper, show
girl, and with disorderly conduct,
was discharged from cutody in New
York city today. Miss Cooper did
not appear. Instead she sent let
ter enclosing a physicians certif-
cate that she had been i'll in bed for
the last ten days, and was in no
condition to leave her home, and
requested that Johnson be kept in
custody for two weeks, when she
would be able to appear against
him. Magistrate Freschi refused
to put the case over, and discharg-
ed the prisoner.
The above press dispatch was
published in all the big dailies dur
ing the past week. The nature of
the assault is not given, but the
fact is made manifest that this GER
tain magistrate has little regard for
justice. Because a young woman
is injured so badly that she is una
BILE to appear against her assailant
the case is dismissed. Had the
latter been just a plain, every day
negro instead of the worlds cham.
pion pugilist, it is likely he would
have been held for years IL neces-
sary. 1t serves another indication
that justice is blind in dealing with
the powerful. The poor girl may
spend weeks in bed, pay for medi-
cal attendance, lose her time and
struggle through it all as best she
may, while the one responsible for
her condition escapes scot free hap
py in the knowledge that he may
with impunity assault any other
girl so long as he Injuries her so
badly that she Is unable TO leave
her bed to testify against him.

claims to have gotten the worst OF
the deal. Both cities are open to
censure. II was the duty of the
regularly appointed enumerators to
take the census, but over Jealous
individuals, fearful that some names
would be overlooked or would not
be completed within the specified
time, voluntarily went out and So

resulted and names were thrown
out by the wholesale. II is the first
time within our knowledge that
any city ever took matters in its

TRAGEDY BARELY AVERTED
Prominent Young People of Black
foot Narrowly Escape Drowning
in the BlackfoOt River

Two young people, who are promi-
nent in Blackfoot society circles, bare
ly escaped a horrible death by drown
Ing in the cold waters of the Black
Ioot river last Sunday. The full de-
tails of this near-tragedy are hard to
obtain owing to the reticent DISPOSE
tions of the parties concerned. But
it is thought that the lovely spring
weather had SO overcome their bash
fulness that they wandered forth to
view the wonderful works of nature
it all it's glory on the banks of the
Blackfoot river. Arriving at the
aforesaid stream, the smooth-floWing
current evidently reminded them that
side by each, they might
thusly glide down life's mighty river,
SO drawing closer, to better observe
how the gliding was accomplished,
they ventured forth on the ice that
lined the shore and there they stood,
all unmindful of the loved ones left
behind. But as warning Of the dan
gers that threaten, even when life
seems most pleasant, the ice upon
which they stood gave way and pre-
cipitated them into the cold waters.
Good fortune, however, mad not de-
serted them entirely, for they were
able to wade ashore and thus the pup
ils of certain room in the central
school building were saved from
mourning the loss of an excellent
teacher and a well-known business
house saved the trouble of hiring
new salesman.

SECOND VICTORc SCORED OVER
REGULARS
Defeat Comes to Regulars Notwith-
standing Elaborate Preparations
Made in House

Washington, March 16-Although
the Republican organization OF the
house took radical measures today to
prevent repetition OF yesterdays de-
teat at the hands OF the Democratic
insurgent Republican commission on
the question of maintenance OF an
automobile for Speaker Cannon, the
allies scored another victory over the
regulars even more decisive than that
OF yesterday.
On an appeal from decision by
Speaker Cannon on the matter OF
precedence tor joint resolution, the
house voted against the speaker, l63
to Ill. In addition TO the full DEM
ocratic vote and the 80 insurgents
who already are against the speaker,
"a dozen other Republicans, heretofore
regular voted to turn down. the rul-
ing of the chair.
Just before the taking of the vote,
Speaker Cannon addressed the house
at length, giving his reasons for the
ruling and showing something OF in
difference as to what action the house
might take.
He had just ruled that the consCi-
tutional nature of resolution Of
'fered by Republican Representative
Crumpacker on the coming census
gave it precedence over the house
rule establishing calendar Wednes-
day." which was one of the features
OF the Fitzgerald rules.

INTERESTED in Y. Nj. G.. A.


The Y. M. G. A. auditorium was
filled with an enthusiastic crowd of
young women last evening who re-
ported progress in the work of secur-
ing members for the organization of
a Young Womans Christian assOcia-
tion. Members to the number of Al 1
were reported last evening, although
many of the girls were not able to
be present to report their work. Of
this number 80 were ranked as sus-
tanning members, having paid fee
of $5 per annum, instead of 81. The
financial committee was equally for
unate in it's report. A number of
prominent women of the city, who
had been called upon. all without ex-
ception, agreed to aid the new organ
ization financially.
A letter was read from the head
quarters at Seattle, stating that Miss
Gage, the general secretary, who is
to aid in the Boise organization, will
reach the city Sunday morning and
remain here five days. Mrs. w. P.
Morris has offered to entertain Miss
Gage while she is here and the plans
for her meetings have been left in
the hands of the executive and the
entertainment committees. 1t has
been arranged that Miss Gage will
occupy the pulpit of the First Meth
odist church Sunday in the interest
of the organization.
