NOUN DAYS LOSE
The U. $. Supreme Court De-
clines to Review Their Case.
The Only Hope Left Lies in
President Wilson.

Washihgt Nov. 29-The supreme
court today declined to review the
case of Mr.. and Mrs. Don A Noun Day
of Topeka, Kan, convicted of using
the mails to defraud. and that of the
Rev. Ottoman Ear Adusht Hanish of
chicago, convicted of sending an OBJ
scene printed book through the mails.
The MounDays, Mrs. l.. ID. w. and
Don A, were convicted in the federal
district court on charges of using the
mails to defraud in land deals in the
Upper Pecos valley of New Mexico.
The MounDays claimed to own thou
sands of acres of land in the valley
and from their offices in Topeka were
selling t. Fred Robertson United
States district attorney, who prose-
cuted the case for the government
charged that they made thousands of
dollars in the deals.
The MounDays were arrested in To-
peka in the summer of 1914 and in
December they were found guilty in
the federal court in Kansas City. They
appealed. The lower court was up
held. Motion for a new trial was
made. 1t was denied. The denial Of
appeal in the supreme court leaves no
alternative open to the MounDays but
appeal to the president Of the United
States.
MouDDay was sentenced to serve
two years in the federal penitentiarv
and pay a heavy fine. Mrs. MounDay
was fined $500 and costs in the case
which amount to thousands of dollars

To Take Action Looking to a
New City Building.
AUDITORIUM is INADEQUATE
Present Structure No Longer
Meets the Public Needs.
Those i'm Attendance Are Reti-
cent Regarding Their Action.

Plans either to build a new city au-
ditorium or to enlarge the present hall
to give more seating capacity were
considered today at a meeting held in
the office of Jay z. House, mayor. e.
H. Crosby was chairman of a commit
tee appointed by the Commercial club
to take up the matter with the city Of
ficials. The meeting was held behind
closed doors and none of those attend
ing would talk for publication.
If plans for a larger auditorium are
carried out, it is probable that an
entire new city hall building will be
erected, or the present structure will
be remodeled to such an extent that it
will have little resemblance to what 1t
is now. The auditorium part of the
city hall building now extends from
Quincy street to the alley.
There is considerable space, how
ever, which is not occupied between
the alley and that part of the building
used for city offices. The only way
to enlarge the present auditorium
would be to take the space now used
for city offices between the big hall
and the fire department headquarters
and combine this with the space now
not built on.
To do this would necessitate putting
the city offices in the old council
chamber. This would make room for
only part of them, and as a result of
cramped conditions the sleeping rooms
of the firemen, which some persons
figure will not be needed under the
doubIe-plattoon system, might be used
for office room
