RICH COST OF BATHS
SUGGESTS A SCHEME
TO RAPID CITY ELKS
That Of Boring For Hot Waite.
and Starting a Bath House
Of Their Own.

Rapid City, S. D., July 27.-If it cost
800 Elks n their friends $500 to-
AXE an annual bath at Hot Springs.
last Sunday, what will it cost all the
1000 inhabitants Of the city to bath
at home? This Is a problem that the
Elks themselves will attempt to solve
at the next regular meeting of the or
der.
Rapid City lodge, No. I'LL, has a
fine new building with beautifully APP
pointed club rooms and a vacant lot
adjoining the structure, which is sus-
ceptible Of improvement. The plan of
erecting a plunge, gymnasium, Turkish
inc Russian baths on this lot has lain
dormant during the two dry years, but
has come to the foreground when some,
members of the order realized that the
bath they took at Hot Springs Sun
day averaged about SIS when they came.
to check up Monday morning.
DR.. O'Hara, president of the School
of Mines, has advanced the opinion for
some time that moderate boring any
where in the foothills of the Black
Hills would bring to the surface arte-
sian hot water of a degree sufficient to,
be used for household purposes.
Whether an attempt will be made to,
secure natural hot water is not both
ering the Elks, what they propose to,
have is a plunge at so cents per dive
and as many as they choose to take.

river above Yankton, where rivermen
of an early day said the lights on all

UNIVERSITY MEN TO GATHER
Secretary of Y. M. G. A. Planning to
Have Dinner for University Men

Secretary Crossnan of the Kenosha
Y. M. G. A. is making an effort to Sc
cure an organization of the university
and college men of Kenosha and to
this end plans are being laid for
dinner for the university men during
the coming holiday vacation. 1t is
probable that the dinner will be held
some night late in the holidays after
the Christmas gayety is over and It
is expected that more than a hundred
men of the city who have attended
the various colleges and universities
in the country will be present at the
gathering. Al the present time efforts
are being made to get a line on these
men. The movement may result in the
formation Of University Club for the
city. In the past few years scores of
college men have come to Kenosha to
take positions with the big industrial
firms of the city and many of these
men are in favor of an organization.
Details of the gathering will be an
nounced later in the mouth.

JIMMY COULO|I HELD
Chicago Man Who is Alleged
to Have Robbed Bruins
to Stand Trial.
STICKS TO HIS FAMILY NAME

Jimmy Coulon, the Chicago man ar
rested Last Sunday after he had cough
ed up a five dollar bill alleged to
have belonged to Police and Fire Com
missioner John P. Bruins, was held to
the circuit court for trial on charges
of larceny from the person by Judge
Randall in the municipal court on
Thursday afternoon. j. 2. Baker, an
other Chicago man arrested as a con-
federate Of Coulon, was discharged.
The evidence against the Chicago man
was decidedly questionable and it is
not improbable that the district at
torney will ask for a re-opening of the
hearing and that Coulon viii be given
chance to come into court and plead
guilty to minor charge. Protest
iag his innocence all the time during
the hearing it is just possible that Cou-
lon will refuse to accept liberty at tho
price of confessing to theft and he
NAV demand a trial himself.
The police and fire commissioner
himself and a big bunch of witnesses
were on hand to testify in the case
and they told stories which largely
confirmed the story Of Coulon, that he
picked tie pocket book not from the
trousers Of Bruins but off the floor Of
the saloon in which the two men had
been drinking. The evidence indicated
that Coulon had made no strenuous
effort to find the owner Of the pocket
book and that he had slipped out of
the store just after he had picked it
up off the floor.
Coulon declared that he had given
his right name to the officials and that
notwithstanding the fact that there
was bantamweight champion pugis-
| list of the same name he would con-
/ tinue to keep the name his father had
given him and that if the bantam
weight champion did not like it he
would have to go into court and
change it.
Judge Randall in holding Coulon de-
clared that the evidence against him
was very slight but that he would not
be justified in discharging the boy. II
/ is probable that the case will be dis
posed of in time to allow Coulon his
liberty for Christmas. His bond was
fixed at 5000 in cash and he returned
to jail.

Account of Improper Mailing.

Hundreds of post cards most of them
Of the tinsel variety bearing Christmas
greetings from Kenosha people to peo-
pie in this and other countries are be-

of the fact that the senders have fail

cards. Many of them are enclosed in
envelopes with the proper postage on
the inside of the envelopes, but the
postofice workmen have no right to
take out the stamps and put them on
the outside of the envelopes. All of
these cards will be sent to the dead

them do not appear at the Office and
