Makes Dash for Liberty When Door
 Is ODened.

vicious bulldog, brought to po- lice headquarters last night by it's owner to be disposed of, escaped from its cell this morning just after court, caused much surprise for Court Policeman Frank M. English and a temporarily lively chase about the corridors before being re-captured
 Policeman English, unaware that the cell was tenanted, opened the door to get several cups for the one course menu served as breakfast to prisoners. Shaping viciously at him, the dog ".streaked it. out of the door through the entrance to the
 cellroom and on its way towards free dom. The pursuit was lively while 1t
 landed, the report that a suspected l mad dog was at liberty in the build ing causing a number to join in the hunt. The dog was later taken into 1 custody by Dog Warden John Coffey.

SICILY is LAND OF ROMANCE
Island Of Picturesque History Has Pro-
duced Many Men Who lowered
Above Others In Past.

Sicily's history Is as vivid and pic
turesque, as ferocious and creative and
destructive, as mythical and intensely
practical as the stories Of all the rest
Of the world put together, says Ma
tional Geographic Magazine. And in
beauty Of nature, Of climate, Of man
and Of beast the island is paradise
today, whether or not It was ever the
voorhees,, painless, passlonless elysium
where our first ancestors enjoyed all
the good things Of life without having
to toll.
Nature itself, now in the guise Of the
misunderstood gods Of old, now in con-
WILSON'S or in quiet fertility that SCI
ence has made plain to US, weaves Its
mysterious shuttle through and through
the highly colored fabric. And men
such men tower above their fellows
in the story like Titans: Pindar, Aes-
chylus, Theocritus, Thucydides, Archi-
medes, the two great Hierons, Cicero
Verres, Diodorus, Hamilcar and Hanni-
bal, Roger the Count and Roger the
King, Belisarius, the great Crusaders
Richard of the Lion Heart and Louis
the Saint Of France-Charles of An
jou, Frederick II, the "Wonder Of the
World" and Garibaldi. Even this par
tial list reads like q compendium OF
ancient and medieval romance and
chiyalry.

DEMAND FOR SKIS GROWING
Popularity Of Winter Sport Has In
creased Wonderfully In United
States and Canada.

You scarcely would think that there
would be a market for skis in Arizona,
or in California, with 1t undetermined
climate-but it's true. And, moreover,
the st. Paul Pioneer Press says, there
is q demand for them In these two
states-as well as all other states OF
the Union where 1t Is possible to In
dulge in that winter sport. AS Tor
Canada, the demand from that quarter
for these locally made skis Is immense.
One reason probably for this demand
on st. Paul made skis Is that the
largest ski mandatory in the world
Is located here. For the manufacture
of skis, Louisiana yellow pine, Florida
hickory, ash and maple are used, the
hickory being the best for skis used by
a Jumper. Every ski must be perfect
piece Of wood, any pitch hole or defect
Immediately making the wood unfit for
use.
The wood, after being seasoned thor
oughly, is planed and then goes to the
markers bench, where the pattern Is
marked on 1t. 1t Is then cut out with
saws according to this pattern, grooved
on the bottom to give the ski runner
better control Of his skis, steamed and
the prov" bent, the hole cut for the
harness which holds the feet to the ski,
and then finished and painted.
Ski running and jumping has in
creased wonderfully in the United
States and Canada in the past two
years. Even the United States govern
ment purchases skis here for the use
Of its rangers and other officials, for
whom the SHOWS of the north make
such implements necessary.
