morning, intimating that she was
the wife of another Seattle attor-

they entered the station, accord
ing to the night sergeant's report.
The couple drove to Tacoma last
night in McCully's 40-horsepower
car, it is said, and spent the even
ing in cafes. Later they drove
about the city, the car lurching
from one curb to the other In its
wild flight. When questioned by
Chief of Police Looinis and Police
Captain A. s. Read today McCully
was defiant, it was reported, and
showed such display OF temper
that he was held until he became
patient. The lawyer and his COM
panion were booked on the police

he was born in Austria on July
10, 1889. Mr.. Miksche came to
the United States in 1857 and SET
tied in Chicago in 1868; in Min
nesota at st. Martin in 1869
where he bought a store, moved
to Elizabeth in 1874 and to Wah-
peton in 1879, bringing his family
here, in 1882. He opened up a
general merchandise store here
on his arrival which has been run
ming continuously since.
Mrs. Miksche, his life partner,
passed into the great beyond
about five years ago and since
that time he has apparently been
waiting for the summons to join
her. There were six children
born to them, three of whom died
of diphtheria, and the ones living
are: Frank Miksche of Breck-
enridge, Leo Miksche of Califor-
mia and Mrs. Math. Kraker of
WahpetOn.
The funeral services will be at
the st. johns church Saturday
morning. The pal. bearers Will
be Mat, Marcus and Henry Krak-
er, Tony and Leo Miksche, grand
sons, and Peter Fox, a nephew. of
the deceased.
During the thirty-four years
that Mr.. Miksche has lived in
Wahpeton he has continued to
grow in the esteem and conf
dence of the citizens. While he
never was an office seeker, he
served as a member and presi-
dent Of the city council.
In the passing of Mr.. Miksche
Wahpeton loses an honored and
upright citizen and one that has
always been found willing to do
what he could for the upbuild-
ing Of the community.

0oLLMAR BROTHERS
ARRANGE FOR CHILDREN

Gollmar Brothers show, which
is booked to exhibit in Wahpe-
ton on Wednesday, July 9th, has
made unusual efforts to entertain
the little folks as we'll as the
adults with wholesome and profit
able amusement. The date of a
visit by the Gollmar Brothers be-
comes veritable "childrens day."
In this country there are hund-
reds of large cities and good
towns where the Gollmar Broth
ers show is popular. 1t is always
accorded a hearty welcome and
a liberal patronage wherever it
exhibits. The Gollmars would
like to please the children of ev-
cry community, but it is a physi-
cal impossibility for their circus
to visit all of its towns at Just
the right time. To do such a
thing would nnecessitate the di-
viding of the show, and this they
would not do. No matter how
small a town the Gollmar Bros.
circus may visit, it is never .di-
vided. 1t i some of the little rules
that has made the combination
what it is.
1t is fact that the Gollmar
Brothers made greater efforts,
and have gone to more expense to
entertain the little folks than any
other managers. Older people
can always find entertainment,
but it is the little ones who are
neglected by many. Almost one
half of the space in the anomal
tent is filled with objects of spec
ial interest to the little people.
The entire center is filled with
the finest Shetland ponies ever
seen in one collection. They are
of all sizes and colors. These
ponies are used in the magnifi-
cent parade to pull the little ca
ges of the miniature menagerie.
Almost one side of the big men,
agerie tent is filled with little,
cute and costly cages, made in
imitation of the larger ones. The
small cages are inhabited by the
small animals, such as monkeys,
etc. In the circus proper there
are many clowns, who are en-
ployed for the sole purpose of
entertaining the children. Bus
ter Brown is there, too.
In addition to these attractions
must be added the several acts
of trained animals. The child
who is so fortunate as to have en-
joyed such amusement is winning
much in an educational way.

MANY NEW LAWS
GO INTO EFFECT
Ban Is Put on Selling Cigarettes
and snun-Marrlase Laws
are Changed.

Citizens Of the state are living
under many new laws since the
first of the month when most of
the laws passed by the last leg
islature went into effect. There
were some which carry emergen-
cy clauses and which will go into
effect as soon as approved by the
governor. Others were enacted
SO as to take effect later than
July 1st.
One of the measures which at
tracted a great deal of attention,
not only because Of the nature of
the law, but because of the brib-
cry charges growing out of the
attempt to defeat it is the anti
snuff law. The first section of
senate bill 90 and introduced by
Thoreson, says: 1T shall be un-
lawful for any person, firm or
corporation to import, manufac-
ture, distribute, transport, sell,
offer for sale, or to have in. pos
session for sale, or to give away
any snuff OF any substitute there
for" The enforcement of the law
lice officer or any custodian of
is given to the states attorney,
sheriffs, police officers, health Of
ffcers and food commission. A
fine of not less than $500 and not
more than $1,000 is provided for
the first offense and for subse-
quent offenses Imprisonment for
not less than six months.
Section or house bill 81 in
troduced by Northrop provides
"That it is unlawful for any per-
son by himself, clerk or servant,
employe or agent, directly or in
directly, upon any pretense. or by
any device to manufacture, sell,
exchange, barter, dispose of or
give, or keep for sale, any Gig
arettes, cigarette papers or Gig
arctic wrappers, or any paper
made or prepared for the pur-
pose of being filled with tobacco
for smoking" The penalty pro-
vided is fine of not less. than
$40 and not more than $50 and
Imprisonment not to exceed thirty
days. !,
Another measure which has at
tracted much attention is the new
marriage law. Under the pro-
visions Of bill introduced by
Senator Overson, marriage licen-
ses cannot be granted unless the
parties present certificates from
regularly practicing physician
showing that they are not feeble
