Legal Adviser Cuts on Half

HIS TyVSISHC
Reports of the condition of City
Solicitor ID. S. Seitz were decidedly
more favorable to-day although the
municipalities legal adviser is still
suffering considerable pain at his
home, 1911 North Second street.
According to Postmaster Frank c.
Sites, the solicitors brother-in-law,
Mr.. Seitz is suffering from a blood clot
at the base of his brain which is
pressing on the optic nerve. This
has served to cut off half the sight of
each eye The slightest vibration of
sound intensifies the pain.

ished their parade, and Charles Froh-
man, perspiring and wearing the al
horred silk hat, entered the box office
of the opera house on Cleveland ave
nue. Sitting in the treasurer's seat he
saw a sturdy lad lingering pile of
silver dollars. He slipped them in and
out with amazing deXterity. Hearing
a noise, he looked up and beheld young
Frohman with the tile tilted back on
his head. The boys eyes met. Into
each came a wistful look.

said the boy at the window.

From Emeric to America.


The transformations that take place

for by carelessness I'm transmission
One would scarcely expect the name OF
Emeric, the name of a pious Hun
garian prince OF the eleventh century,
who was made a saint. to take the
form Of AmerigO In Italian and OF
Amory and Emery In English. The
name In German, but little changed
from the original, is Emmerich. This

century, I'm the Italian form of Ameri-

navigator surnamed Vespucci, and this
continent, by a still further mutilat1on
of the name. came to be known as
America. When King Stephen Of Hun
gary was choosing a name for his son
he could scarcely have imagined that
the name chosen was TO be the parent
Of the word America and that poor old
Christopher Columbus was thereby to
be despoiled Of a recognition that is

States Rights Would Not Suffer.

Mr.. Thorn cited many instances in
which shippers in one state were in
juriously affected by selfish regua-
tons imposed on the railroads by
neighbOring states He pointed out
that federal regulation would be no in

would be the means Of preserving the

the right to the free movement OF their

DON'T KILL BEAVER
Take Warming from the Trouble that
BefelI Henry Wensch

Readers of The Enterprise who would
go hunting hereabouts are advised that
they had better post themselves on the
game laws if they would avoid the
trouble that overlook Henry Wensch
this week.
Early in the week Ed Johnston, a
deputy game warden, came down from
Denver in trace of a party who had
Il couple of beaver pelts from here and
after little investigation he enlisted
the services of Deputy Sheriff Weist
who proceeded to the West Ranch and
arrested Henry Wensch upon the charge
of killing beaver.
Wensch appeared before Judge Chrit-
ton on Wednesday and made the plea
that he was not aware that these in
dustrious little animals were protected
by the state, which reduced the fine
with which he was assessed to $50 and
costs. This he paid and it is safe to
assume that he'll nevermore be guilty
of like offense.
