Marshall Field & Co., power in Zion
City, had Nick Scott hauled before
Judge Edwards of WaUkegan for viO-
latiOn of the injunction ordering
members of the laCemakeTs' union to
keep silence. Herbert Foster of the
Zion Lace Industries, owned by Mar
shall Field & Co., testified his toes
were stepped on and he was called
a "scab" by Smith.
Witnesses for Smith said Foster
told Smith to ''go jump in the lake"
and invited trouble. Case continued
to Aug. 25.
Attorneys for Jimmy Simpson, vice
president of Marshall Field & Co.,
sent word to Dan Cruice, attorney for
the lacemakers, yesterday that they
would meet strike committee in the
office of Frank P Leffngwell, 112
Adams St, and try to adjust the
strike. Cruice went. Nothing doing.
May be later.

Des Moines, May 10-Chairman Nc
Conlogue of the board of control will
send out to county authorities let
ter OF advice in regard to the insane
in the state hospitals, urging that only
such cases be committed as seem to
be necessary and that in the case OF
senile and harmless demented per
sons, they be cared for in thecoun-
ties. ...
The state hospitals are becoming
too crowded. The problem of finding
room for all the insane is going to be
serious one soon if the rate of in
crease continues.
I'VE have found that the capacity
of our four state hospitals is just
about filed now" said Colonel Nc
Conlogue. I'VE are under the neces-
sity of seeking in some way to stop
the Increase in number OF insane un-
der the state care. We will suggest
that the counties care for as many of
their insane as possible in the county
asyums. We believe also that 1t is
possible to reduce the number of COM
mitments by having the boards OF
insanity refuse to send many harmless
cases to the state hospitals.

AMUSING INCIDENT.

There was a somewhat amusing in
cident at the sale of the dairy imple-
ments, cows, ETC., belonging to P.
Mailhos, on the lower coast of AL
giers, Thursday. A wild bull broke
away from its attendants just before
it was put up for sale, and ran in the
direction of two women who had been
interested spectators at the auction,
but who had moved some distance
away from the rest of the throng when
the beast became fractions. Fortu-
nately, they were successful in out
running the animal to a gate, through
which they passed to safety. No one
was hurt. Incidentally the sale
brought fancy prices for the live
stock.

Blossoms-they are the blossoms of
