PAIL OF SILENCE is
LIFTED IN PRISONS

ST. PAUL, Mimi. June 17.-Silence
will no longer hang like pail over in
mates of the St Cloud state reform
atory 1t has been abolished by Su-
perintendent c. S. Reed of that insti-
tuition.
Under the new dispensation talking
will be permitted when not loud or
boisterous.
The announcement of the change
was made by the state board of con-
troll and it marks new epoch in the
treatment of criminals in Minnesota
Heretofore the rule of silence has
been strictly enforced. and guards
have been compelled to report in
fractions.
According to members of the board
the rule soon will be modified at the
state prison at saltwater. Although
conditions at that institution are
different from those at St
Cloud, yet Warden Henry woifer be-
lieves that the prisoners can be al
lowed more latitude than at present.

PAYS 100000 FOR
A DINNER FOR 25

BERLIN. June 17.-Following the
automobile accident in which Herr
Theodor Dreber, the well-known
German sportsman, met his death.
some amazing accounts of the spend
thrift habits of this son of a million
saire have come to knowledge.
Two years ago he lived at Brioni
during the winter months, and one
day, feeling very duh, he sent out tel
egrams to twelve of his best men
friends and to twelve women friends
asking them urgently to come down
to Brioni to have supper with him.
Some of these friends lived at that
time at Vienna, others in Hungars
and even on the Rivera, while am
ong the women eight were at Vienna
and four in Paris.
In order that their journey might
be as comfortable as possible. each
of them had a special train placed at
his or her disposal, and, in order that
every one of them might preserve i
pleasant memory of the occasion, each
of the male guests received a souve-
mir in the form of golden cigarette
case and each woman a gold handbag
with the date of the supper set out in
diamonds. The affair cost 100000
On the death of his father he in
herited $4,000, 200. More than half
of this has eyaporated during the last
three years.

ed by Bakers poor fielding. Pendle-
ton made 1t two straight from the
Kubs yesterday, winning s to Z after
coming from behind just as In the
first game. The game ended In a tur-
mol and an attempt to mob Umpire
wilkins who called the last Baker
runner out at first after Lodell had
dropped the ball. Lodell maintained
the runner knocked the ball out of
his hand and that the rules only re-
quire that he hold the ball momen-
tarily.
wilkins made a dash for the play
ers' bench, and the Baker players,
who only a moment before had been
ragging at him, gathered around him
and fought off the crowd. HI. III. Cli:-
ford, president of the club, besought
the fans to let the umpire alone, and
they reluctantly consented. His de-
cisions had been criticised all through
the game.
Hitting by Lodell and Pembroke
were big factors in the run getting of
the Bucks. Up until the sixth Ba.
ker had the game to 2. However,
the Pendletonians have a way of keep
ing at 1t and gradually cut down the
lead, tied 1t up and won out in the
last. Fitchner was wild and Osborne
who worked the last two innings, was
wilder and neither had anything ex-
cept support. The Bucks fielded beau
tifully behind some wierd pitching all
through, whereas the Kubs made Il
grand total of nine errors probably d
league record.
