ARGUE SALOON CASE
IN SUPREME COURT
Consent cases OF Des MoInes Heard
by High Court Of the State
Before Audience.

Des Moines, March 18.-(SpeciaD-
The appeal in the Des Moines saloon
consent cases was argued to the gu
preme court yesterday afternoon.
This is perhaps the first time in the
history Of the court that its star at
fractions we're made the subject OF
pulpit announcements in advance,
and as result good many Des
Moines people attended and listened
to the extended arguments. The main
argument related to the force and ef-
feet Of the legalizing act of the last
legislature which undertook to make
legal the acknowledgements of girl
who acted as notary public but had
no commission. .-.~
The supreme court in small batch
of decisions filed yesterday reversed
a damage suit on q technicality 1t
was q case in which q delivery horse
injured q woman in Des Moines. The
court held that the testimony of a
member OF the firm which owned the
horse, or testimony as to his admis-
sion that the horse belonged to the
firm, was erroneous because 1t was
not shown that he had authority to
speak about it. The court also held
however, that one does not have to
take hold of the reins to "drive" a
horse.
The court decisions filed were:
Gertrude Eastman vs.. D. F. East
man, appellant, Boone county; modt-
fed.
Knudson & Richardson vs.. G. Laur-
IN. appellant, Wright county; reversed
Robert M Knox vs. H. L. McMur-

STUDENTS WILL
ATTEND Big SHOW
ACTING PRESIDENT CARLYLE OF
UNIVERSITY WILL PERMIT At
TENDANCE AT SHOW.
Special Train Dec. Will Also Carry
w. S. G. Students Besides Many
Citizens Here and at Pullman.

Recognizing the coming livestock
tunity for the students of the agri-
cultural department of the university
to view collection of the very best
animals of the farm that is to be seen
anywhere in the country DR.. w. L.
Carlyle of the university has decided
to call a two days recess for the stu
dents of the department of agriculture
next week in order that as many as
possible may attend the show. 1t is
expected that more than 100 students
will take advantage of the low rates
that are being offered on the special
train and will spend as much time as
they are allowed at the Lewiston show.
The students from the University of
Idaho will be joined by large delega-
ton of aggies from Washington State
College and together they will view the
Lewiston exhibits. 1t is expected also
that the special train will carry an
exceptionally large delegation from
both Pullman and Moscow to the stock
show. The train will leave Pullman
next Tuesday morning at o'clock and
will stop in Moscow for all who desire
to make the trip.
1t was announced by NJ G. Donaldson
of Lewiston and M. A. Berg of SpO-
kane, representatives of the Northern
Pacific Railway company who have
been in Moscow for the past two days
in the interest of the Lewiston
show that the round-trip rates
from here have been reduced to
$210. 1t has been further announced
that in case there should be suf-
ficient number of people from Moscow

Iston at 7:45 on the morning of De-
,ember 7th.
In speaking of the outlook for the |
success of the Lewiston Livestock |
how Mr.. Donaldson said, From all in
LEGATIONS the Lewiston show this fall
will far exceed any similar livestock
exhibition that has ever been under
aiken before in the northwest. Not
,nly will there be more stock on dis
,lay than there has ever been at any
revious Lewiston show but the quality
# the exhibits will unquestionably be
ar better than it has been in years
asst. We are expecting one of the most
tremendous crowds that has ever wit
essed an exhibition of livestock in
his part of the country"

alone with her English maid and Afri-

declared to have preceded by very few
moments her determination to dc
something that would demonstrate
more conyincingly than ever to the
world at large her own opinion and es-

Equal to Kings.
The duchess is of royal Bourbon
stock and believes as all Bourbons do
that there flows in her veins blood
which makes her superior to mankind
and womankind in general. Not con-
tent with merely believing this, how
ever, she has ever been bent on demon
strating that in having in her the blood
of which queens are made-or at least
used to be made-she is the equal in
every respect of the greatest of kings
and emperors of today.
AS a matter of fact, her accomplish
ments have been such as to demon
strate her the equal of most anyman--
be he king or peasant-and the duchess
has always been received by such rnl-
ers as the emperor of Germany, King
Alfonso, Franz Josef and others not
only as their equal in every way but

lack of royal blood she could hardly

monarchs, she conceived the idea Of
the present trip that would Guido any
thing ever before done by a hunter
and explorer be he man or woman,

The duchess today is in Cairo pre-
pairing for the trip and towards the |
first of December, with her black SER

presumed that she will arrange for oc-

thirteen, but aside from this it is not
