the young and husky heavies of new

crfnoIIne in History.

The oft-threatened return OF the
orinoline, prophesied by alarmists OF
fashion. leaves US all wondering. We
find that the crinoline was first worn
in the sixteenth century by a Spanish
princess. who used 1t 10 conceal her
love letters from forbidden admirer.
According to pictures OF Queen Eliza
beth, she was the drst to wear it in
England. a writer in the St Louis
Post-Dispatch states. Perhaps she
wore IT for the same reason. She had
need OF pockets to hide such, provided
all her admirers wrote 10 her. Among
her earlier portraits we find that her
dress resembled that of Queen Mary
her sister. The skirts OF these were
simply widened at the bottom.

Russian prisoner who is shown here.
Before the war the prisoner was
known as Madame Mario Mako, the
wife OF Russian junior officer. When
war was declared she changed her at.

All the rigors and hardships OF the
different campaigns and the trench
life did not bother her in the least
and her sex identity was secret to
all but herself. Then Sbe was cap
tured and along w. the rest OF the
prisoners turned over to the German
sanitation corps. All the prisoners are
forced to go through the disinfecting
station, where they bathe and have
their clothing disinfected. When
Madame Malko's turn came the truth
leaked out.

The Tragedy of it All.

The intense tragedy of the death of
Joseph Heger in alien land, denied
that which was in his grasp through
ungraciousness on the part of one
whom he trusted in his helpnessness,
is strikingly pictured by the Los An
geles Times as follows:
"Spring is coming in a cemetery at
Sank Centre, Mimi, and the nrst
robins are in the big oak trees, just
as Joseph Heger wished it should be
on the day they were to bury him
there. But he is going to occupy a
lot in California cemetery because
the last man he trusted is alleged to
have betrayed him. Yesterday, Mr..
Heger died at the County Hospital
and yesterday John Gallagher, a
nurse formerly employed there. was
brought here from Ashfork, Arizona,
charged with having stolen the money
that was subscribed to send the dying
man to his home and the cemetery he
loved.
Because he was a cripple, Joseph
Heger knew he was soon to die. His
family was not wealthy, but his
brother could provide for him, and
Mr.. Heger would get into his wheel
chair in the summer time and trun.
die himself to the cemetery at Sauk
Centre. In the Spring it was green

TWO BIG FEATURES ON FRIDAY
Tully, Marshall in a Griffith PRODUCE
ton and Raymond Hitchcock
to Feature in Comedy.

The mysterious and subtle methods
of Chinese revenge will be clearly
portrayed in "The Sable Lorchia," an
other superb Triangle Griffith produc-
ton in five reels at the Caughren
theatre Friday evening of this week.
Tully Marshall delineates the cunning
of the murderous Chinaman true to
life, and Thomas Jefferson as Daniel
McNish shares headline honors. '"The
Sable Lorchia" is entirely different
from anything ever thrown upon the
screen at the Caughren, and, with the
Griffith attention to detail, appropri-
ate music furnished by the Symphony
orchestra and Raymond Hitchcock and
Max Sennett in a two-reel side split
ting comedy, "Stolen Magic" the
evening should be big winner. Re-
member Friday evening, April Z. One
big show at S:15, prices 25 and 81
cents.

bovy.
Joseph Heger, Jr., was born June
Is, 1889, at St. George, Nicollet coun-
ty, Mimi, and came to Sank Centre
with his parents when eight years of
age. He attended the graded schools
of the city and left six yeas ago to
take up railroad station york, being
connected in that time with several
companies and at various cities in the
west. During 1915 he was employed
in the Southern Pacific station at the
San Francisco exposition grounds and
the arduous duties undermined his
health. On Feb. 10 he went to Los
Angeles, hoping the ;milder climate
would be beneficial. His condition
grew worse and he went to the Los
Angeles county hospital. The doctors
diagnosed his case as ,Landry's paral-
ysis and he bravely faced their decis-
ion that he could not live. He was
the hospital five weeks. Besides ms
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Heger,
there survive two brothers, and one
sister, George of Fargo, N. D., Frank
of Hibbing and Miss Anna, who is a
student at the Moorhead Normal
school.

iron range towns, and that he had
never been arrested before.
Asked as to the circumstances OF
the transaction that led to his indict-
ment, he made rambling statement,
only part of which was caught by the
stenographers.
"This $4,000 check was certified by
Mr.. Preus," he said, "and cashed it."
Mr.. Kane told the court his client
had been valuable and efficient pub
lie servant, that he had been loved
wherever he lived and that his viola
ton of the law was TECHNICAL and due
to his ignorance Of legal matters.
"He never took any money he didn't
intend to RETURN" said the attorney.
"For some years." said Mr.. Kane at
another point, "he had fallen into the
habit of devoting some of his time to
friendly and convivial companions. In
this way he took his mind off the cares
of his office. This was a weakness"
Mr.. Kane said that when informed
by his counsel that he was technically
guilty Smith, himself, had suggested
going before a court and pleading
guilty.
"He did not seek evasion or any
thing else that would tend to shield
him." said the attorney. He added that
public sentiment believed his client al
ready sufficiently punished.
"Those questions you bring up are
for the parole board or pardon board
rather than for the court" said Judge
Dickson, who then proceeded with the
sentence.

Saltwater until discharged by due
process of law"

MUSICAL CLUB YEAR IS ENDED
Splendid Program and Entertainment
Followed by the Election of
New Officers.

Last Monday the Monday Musical
Club closed their club year for 1856
with something different" in the way
of entertainment. The club has a
membership of about thirty. Twenty
five of these members, attired in their
Sunday best, gathered at the home of
Mrs. Rudolph E. Hansen, where they
were warmly greeted by the hostess
and her mother, Mrs. V A. Whipple.
A one o'clock luncheon was the first
thing on the program, the company
being seated at four tables, which
were beautiful in appointment and ar
rangement. Mrs. Aygarn assisted
Mrs. Hansen in serving. Four courses
were daintily set before the musical
ladies, and tits said that never were
their voices more sweet than when
sounding the praises of this delight
full repast. The luncheon being over,
and tables removed, a short social
hour was INDUCED in, after which a
short musical program followed. Mrs.
Thoeny Austin gave piano solo, Miss
Hattie Erwin and Miss Vera jamie
son a piano duet, Mrs. R. E. Han
sen two vocal solos and Mrs. Lynn
Whitson rendered the beautiful and
difficult left handed arrangement of
the Lucia Sextette. All these num-
bers were of a high character, and
much appreciated. The balance of the
afternoon was taken up with bust
ness and pleasure. The officers of
the past year were reelected as fol-
lows: President, Mrs. Mary Hogan;
vice president, Mrs. ]. H. Simonton;
secretary, Miss Esther Sprague;
treasurer, Mrs. Howard Wilcox. This
reelection was a reward for work
we'll done. While this account may
sound formidable, everything was en-
tirely informal. It was a home-like
affair. A quietness pervaded the af.
ternoon, all the members sadly mis-.
sing the face and presence of thei1
much loved and honored member, Mrs
C. M. Sprague, whose death occurred
during the year. All felt that hel
sweet spirit lowered near them, seem

ering, where in years gone by she hae
always been such helpful contribu
tor to their enjoyment Contributed
