HARRISBURG. Feb 4i.-"A man has
fun rights in his own home against

wife starts a quarrel It is the hus-
bands business to retreat"
That is the doctrine Judge Kunkel
laid down in court, when counsel for
Albert j. Fotz. pleaded to prevent Mrs.
Foltz getting large maintenance order
because II was alleged she kicked her
husbands shins and otherwise made
life miserable for him.
The judge didn't take much stock In
young Foltz's story about cruelty, but
the lawyer persisted. Why, she kicked
his shins until they bled."
'She kicked so long as he held her
by .he wrists" replied the court.
"Hc had TO hold her wrists to save
himself from a beating" put ia the
lawyer, who wanted to prove Il by wit
nesses.

Linn Cowell Is Badly
Hurt in Auto Accident

While driving in runabout car
from his home this morning about 8
o'clock en- route to his work at the
Office of the Barnes County Imple-
ment Company, Linn Cowell miracu-
lously escaped death by having his
auto struck by the Northern Pacific
switch engine that was backing down
the track inside the city limit. The
accident happened at the crossing just
west of the coal sheds of the old Peo-
Piles Fuel Company on Front street.
Just how the accident happened it is
hard to tell at this time. 1t seems
that Mr.. Cowell was driving his car
from his home and whether he saw the
engine coming down the track or not
we do not know, but we do know that
the engine struck the car almost square
in the middle. Linn was carried quite
a distance before he was released from
the machine, and we do not know how
be got out of the car, either, but he
was found lying probably one hun
dred feet this side of the crossing. The
auto was carried by the engine prob
ably 200 or $50 feet beyond the cross
ing and was smashed in bad shape.
The engineer and fireman both claim
that the whistle was sounded and the
engine bell rang, but Mr.. Cowell ap-
parently did not hear it or see the en-
CINE as he had on side curtain. The
unfortunate victim was taken over to
the Riverside hospital and Doctors
Macdonald and Pray were called into
the case and have taken care of his

LANCER WANTS
ORDER MODIFIED

Attorney General LANCER today filed
with the supreme court petition for
modification of the courts temporary
restraining order in the matter of the
Scandinavian-Americ bank, the
state examiner and others versus the
state banking board. The attorney
general cites the following as his rea-
sons for making this application:
First, that by the order Of Octo-
Der Is, 1919, respondents were given
until October 20, 1919, by your honor
able court in which to file additional
al affidavits; that since that time affi-
ant and his assistants have been en-
deavoring to secure affidavits which
would present material facts in the
above entitled matter to your honor
able court, but that such efforts have
been unavailing; that there are some
fveor six persons whose testimony
under oath is material, and that some
of these persons have refused to give
affidavits and still others have indi-
Gated that they ouldi.refuses sto, give
affdavits; but this affiant has reason
to believe and does believe if such per-
sons if subpoenaed before any district
court of this state will tell the truth
and will testify to material facts
which this affiant verify believes
should be in the possession Of this hon.
orable court.
"Second, affiant further believes that
as result of obtaining such testi-
mony additional evidence will be ad-
duced which will make the conviction
of H. J. Hagan and P. r. Sherman, Of
hcers of the Scandinavian-American
bank, more certain; and further affi-
ant has reason to believe and does be-
ieve that if such testimony were taken
upon order of this honorable court
that evidence will be given which will
justify other prosecutions arising out
of the facts relating to the condition
of the Scandinavian bank"
Upon the strength of these presen-
tations the attorney general prays the
supreme court for a modification of
it's order of October Is to provide for
oral testimony to be taken before
some proper court designated by the
supreme court. The attorney general
makes affidavits that the representa-
tions made are true to the best Of his
knowledge, information and belief.

INDISPUTED FIELD OF
THE DEVEREAUX CO.

The theatrical business las COM
| monty understood, is a highly specu-
lative pursuit. But in active and intel
ligent opposition to it there is large
and thriving movement towards cred
table productions of recognized mas
t,terpieces> of the: professional stage for
educational purposes as we'll as popu-
lar entertainment. 'f'''.
This movement is successfully pro-
crossing through the endorsement and
guaranteed patronage of intellectual
and social centers that are absolutely
free from the last domination of the
commercial theaters.
Thus are Eliminated the two chief
speculative elements in the ordinary
theatrucal activities, namely "syn-
dicated" or singly controlled theaters
and needlessly elaborate productions
Of untried plays, or unknown "stars."
Foremost among those who have
attained side prominence in this new
educational field is Mr.. Cliord Dev-
ereux, the leading spirit and star of
the sterling dramatic organization
that bears his name and is announced
to appear at the Normal Auditorium
Tuesday, Oct. %. .
During the past seven seasons Mr..
Devereux has, from the beginning, de-
monstrated his executive and artistic
ability to create and present praise
worthy productions in the special field
Of colleges, normal schools and COM
munity theaters, frequently including
the regular theaters that open daily
and nightly. In all instances he has
relied on his own judgment and re-
sources which, combined, have won for
him and his capable co-star, Miss
Zinita Graf, and their supporting
company, a commanding acknowledge.

injuries. At first it was though that
Linn was very seriously hurt but we
are informed that since the doctors
have looked him over and fixed him
up he is coming out much better that
it was first thought he would. Both
legs were broken, the left leg was
broken above the knee and is what is
termed a simple fracture, while the
right leg was broken below the knee
and is what is termed compound
fracture. He was also slightly bruis-
ed about the head. So far as we can
learn he has received no internal in
juries and will come out of his acci-
dent much better than was anticipat-
ed. 1t is bad enough indeed to break
both legs but it is infinitely more
pleasant to know that he has escaped
from death in an accident nine times
out of ten would have resulted fatal
ly. Mr.. Cowell's many friends are
sorry to learn of his misfortune but
they rejoice with us in knowing that
his life was spared and that if all
goes we'll he will be able to get out
again in a few weeks, not much the
worse for wear as the saying goes.
The automobile is certainly a tough
looking derelick. We want to say that
Linn is about the grittiest piece OF
humanity we have seen in many day.
Suffering as he was intensely he kept
up his courage and even after he was
at the hospita assisted in getting of
his clothes. Grit like that is bound to
win out.

U.C. COUNCIL
T0BE INSTALLED

That Valley City is to have U. C.
T. council is now an assured fact. The
travellers recently got together and
made up their minds that they wanted
a council, and so on November 8 they
are going, to have: big installation
blow -out. Mr.. Dresser, of St: Paul,
was here to help the boys organize
and between 30 and 40 of the knights
of the grip have signed up and by
Nov. they expect to have IS Of them
enrilled. John ~McGran, of Fargo,
senior council, will be here with de-
gree team to help put it over. The
Elks lodge has courteously offered
the use of their fine hall for installa-
tion purposes and work and this invi-
tation to use this hall has been ac-
cepted by the travelling boys who ap-
preciate the courtesy of the Elks. A
committee is now in charge of ar
rangements of the installation cere-
monies and perhaps we shall be per-
mitted to give the details later. The
establishment of a U. C. T. council at
Valley City means much to this city.
1t means the bringing together of the
travelling men, their families and
friends in a social way and making it
more pleasant in that respect. 1t
means the bringing of more travelling
men off and on to the city and a good
live U. C. T. council means bigger ad-
vertising from these men for our city
and last but by no means the least
they are fine bunch of men and we
are all pleased to have them with US.
Here's wishing the new council sue
cess in every particular. More power
to the boys.
