The Live Stock and Vehicle Man

Knott laughingly declared she knows
more of the world than most women
three times her age, and she added:
1T hasn't been very nice world to
me-
Mrs. Knott says she first met Ro-
senthal about the middle of last sum-
mer. He appeared to be infatuated
with me- she said, and he showed
me much attention. Rosenthal did
not tell the truth when he said he
did not know I was married. When
he called to see me at the Cairo, l
took picture of my husband from
the bureau and showed it to him.
We both laughed, but Rosenthal
knew was telling the truth.
My husband told me what to do,
said I must do it, and I did as he told
me. That is all. He and Armstrong
planned the thing together. When
they told me of the scheme said I
thought it would be more successful
if the victim was a married man, but
they knew Rosenthals father had
money, and they believed the father
would deliver the goods
Woman Not Worried.
Mrs. Knott showed little evidence
of worry. She admitted she had not
worried much since her arrest. That
bed in there she said, pointing to
her cell, is very comfortable. In
fact, I've slept on beds that were not
near as comfortable. This station
house is warm, and, although the
food might be a little better, it is
|nourishing. What more could I ask
for?'
Talks With Reporters.
"James Knott also talked with re-
porters, but his view of his incarcer-
alton was different from the attitude
of his wife. Knott said he came
within an ace of shooting Rosenthal,
and he wished he had
"Is it not enough for man to
stand in a closet and peep through a
hole in a door at another man with
his wife? What more could any one
ask a husband to tolerate? When l
entered the room and pointed those
revolvers at Rosenthal intended to
kill him. But he threw his right
arm over his face, and I saw he was
crippled and incapable of defending
himself. That crippled right arm
was all that saved Rosenthal's life.
| wish I had shot
"Rosenthal suffered an injury to
his right arm when he was boy and
the member has since been deform-
ed. The right is smaller than the
left and the bone of the right arm is
crooked.

The Camille" Company Closed


The Company that played "Camille''
in the Opra House few weeks ago
have closed because of sentiment a.
gainst the drama as being immoral.
When it was advertised to be given in
Portland, FIR. Koelzer advised his mem
bers TO stay away from the show for
moral reasons.
FIR. Koelzer says he based his criti-
cism of the show on the fact that it was
advertised as one of Alexander Dumas
plays. Many of these, including "Ca-
mile" were long ago condemned by the
Catholic clergy as immoral. This
brought from the manager Of the show
an explanation both TO FIR. Koelzer and
from the stage. He declared that the
play had been carefully gone over by
priest and Objectionable lines elimi-
mated. There were not two Of Dumas
lines in the whole play, he declared
The show went from Portland TO
Ionia. There postal cards had been
sent to Catholic church people at the
instance of FIR. Mccarthy, advising
them not TO attend the production.
Then followed tour OF the towns fur
ther north and in nearly all of them
opposition was encountered from Cath
olics.
FIR. Koelzer has received from J. j.
Boyle, leading spirit in the production
Of "Camille," a letter which justifies
his course in advising members of his
church TO stay away from the show for
moral reasons. The letter run like
this:
"Rev. Father: Three days more and
i will have done with what / cannot say
l am proud. This little note will most
likely surprise you not little, but
even an actor becomes conscience
stricken now and then and Camille will,
on Saturday next, ''shut.n l should
cred the task of an argument with my
manager the day following my phone
conversation with you and put before
him the question of eliminating Dumas
name on his show paper, and gave him
a reason which he readily understood;
that is keeping show-going Catholic
people away from the show. Although
our manager non-Catholic he stated
that he had no desire whatever to pro-
duce play with Dumas name on the
advertising matter that would in any
way be objectional to any religion.
Therefore Camille will close.u

Spraying is recommended as q means
of killing the insect unless il has too
