of aufly-ruffled lingerie, rich and delicate.
Her neither limbs were encased in black

Publicity is alleged to lead large
ly to the arrest of criminals and the
public press is wont to tiatter itself
that it's methods of exploiting crimi-
nal acts have much merit in them.
1t may be true that publicity
does accomplish good in many in
stances, out there is another side to
the question.
For example, take the case of the
Hanson girl which attracted consid-
cradle public attention this week:
Gertrude Hanson. the 17-year-old
domestic who broke into the lime
light with thrilling punch in the
jaw administered by herself to her
self and sensational story of how
gray-haired william tried to burn
her up in the basement of the home
of her employer, has admitted that
she just wanted little excitement
and was dying to see her name in
the papers,"
To see her name in the papers!"
That was the incentive to her
criminal act. To see his name in
the papers," doubtless causes many
young men to commit overt acts.
Evidently there is line which
editors should draw between ju-
dicious publicity and sensational
exploitation of crime.-Dunlop's
Dispatch.

Special Thanksgiving Entertainment Under the Aus
pCes Of the Associate Theatre Managers
Of St. Paul.
"Broadw Gs with Geoge P Murphy the New Auditorium in Tlnkes
Troubles" At the Old Prison Fine Vaudeville Performance
was Presented. Vote of Thanks to all Participants

Thanksgiving Day. to those be-
yond the silent cities, scattered
throughout the land, comes as
day of feasting, merrymaking and
other festivities. For years this
day meant nothing to the men in
durance vile. Merely day when
they had to stay in their cells and
spend their time in thinking of
what might have been. That is
now a thing of the past, and today,
we of the rock bound villages, look
forward to Thanksgiving with the
same joy and anticipation as the
free.
The Thanksgiving Day just
passed was spent by the inmates of
this institution in feasting and
merrymaking. After breakfast the
men were marched to the cell hall
and given the freedom of the corri
dors until ten "A. m. They visited
acquaintances and tried, and no
doubt most of them succeeded, to
forget the fact that they were here.
At ten a. m. we marched to the new
prison auditorium, where, through
the kindness of Warden Wolfer
and the big hearted feeling for
their fellowman of Mr.. Theo. l..
Hayes, manager of the Grand Opera
House. St. Paul, and Mr.. Louis

Girls" with Geo. 2. Murphy, we
were allowed to witness a produc-
ton of one of the best musical
comedy road shows in existence to-
day. Owing to the limited time
the entire play was not presented,
but what was witnessed, was pro-
nounced by all critics to have been
the best show ever presented with
in the Minnesota State Prison.
Tinkle's Troubles" were many
and varied, and had the audience in
an uproar of hilarily throughout.
The part of Tinkle was taken by
Mr.. Geo. p. Murphy, the eminent
German comedian. In his musical
selection, Dots Nice" it is only
necessary to say that we concur
with him, changing few woros
around so it will read: Dot was
Goot." The German band, of
which Mr.. Murphy was the chap
with the baton, was some band and
along with Mr.. Murphy and his
chorus, we'll have to pin rose on
Billy Armstrong, as being the
champion, man without con-
science, bass drum walloper in
captivity. Bert Capman wasn't
any slouch when it came to hand
ling the chop sticks" in connec-
tion with the business end of the
snare drum.

Capman and Welch was some
doin's, and we have only one fault
to tind-the act was so hard on the
participants that they found it i'm
possible to respond to an encore.
We have few more remarks to
make about Miss Welch anon.
The chorus girls come in for
big share Of the credit; for musi-
Cal comedy without the chorus
would be like unto an egg sand
wich without the egg. The chorus
was not made up of cheap appearing
people; they all understood their
business and attended to it. Little
Miss Welch seemed to be the ia
vorite. and if we are not mistaken
she is to that chorus what the
clown is to the circus. For being
in any place, every place and all
over the place at one and the same
time. she certainly brings home the
bacon. Dry up! We don't mean
this for matrimonial want ad;
we're married.
Orchestra, did you say? Suffice
to say that we are all fired glad the
M. S. p. orchestra hadn't moved
down. III. +. Nieman, the musical
director, favored us with several
fine selections before the big show
opened, and one and all are willing
to be sitting there yet if they will
only 1ish, out the harmony.
The plot, if plot there be, of this
musical show, like all shows of
like character, is hard to find, and,
we'll we havn't discovered 1t yet,
and don't intend to try, for we en-
joyed ourselves without it.

LAWSUIT OVER THE
 SHOOTING OF A CAT
Claim of Defendant Is That It Stole
 His Chickens.

The shooting of cat was the basis of 8 suit which was tried before the court of common pleas which came in at New London Monday morning with Judge Waller on the bench. The plain tiff in the suit is Leroy Damon, quar- antine officer of the New London health department, and the defendant is Augustus F. Sagan of Ocean ave- nue. The plaintiff alleges that the cat which the defendant shot was a val uable one and he asks $200 damages. The defendant admits shooting the cat, but claimed that 1t was in the habit of stealing his chickens. Attorney George c. Morgan appears for the plaintiff and the defendant is repre- scented by Attorneys Richard P. Free man and William T. COnnor.
 MT. Sagan, the defendant, denied on the stand that he knew the cat to be a valuable one. The cat had stolen 8 chicken in his yard and he had shot it. He did not know who owned the cat.
 MT Damon asserted that MT. Sagan had seen the cat often at his house, where he had been a caller many times, and that he had fOndled the cat on his visits there.
 Mrs. Sagan said that the cat was not an extraordinary one, as far as she knew, and she was not aware that it was valuable.

meeting of the New London har- Dor commission will be held in Hart ford at o'clock on the afternoon of Dec. 2. at which time bids for the construction of the substructure of the steamship terminal at East New Lon don will be publicly opened. The fig ures of each bidder for the various phases of the work will be compiled and probably within a week follow ing the contract will be awarded. At the present time 36 engineering firms throughout the country are working on estimates and it is evident that the state is to have the benefit of the finest talent in this line for the building of the pier.
 Representatives of John Cashman & Sons, engineers known all over the United States. were at New London Monday inspecting the site of the ter minal, preparatory to submitting ar estimate. Contrary to an impression which has been gained by some prop erty owners in East New London, the elimination of portions of certain streets there, made necessary by the terminal plans. will ultimately result

 Tn building the terminal it is nec essary to make an Is foot out running under the Gager property and extend ing back through Sixteenth, Twelfth, Tenth and Eighth streets. Later on, however, property owners will get the benefit of better thoroughfare to the centre of the city, together with trolley line running down. Crystal avenue and thence to the highway bridge to be made from the present railroad bridge over the Thames. In- stead of decreasing property values in that section, they will be largely in creased.
 That the New Haven road is plan ming to lose no time in the construc- tion of the new railroad bridge is evil dent from the fact that the T. A. Scott Co.,, which is carrying on the work of sounding and other preliminaries in the river, intends to keep right at it despite approaching cold weather. To this end the machinery is being boxed in so as to resist the attack of the elements in the icy season.
