VALENTINE PARTY.

One of the successful parties of the
month was the Valentine party given
last Saturday evening by Misses Mar
garet Foote and Mildred Bell, at the
home of the latter on Bennett avenue.
About fifteen girl friends of the host
esses were present and all had de-
lightful time with games and music.
One of the chief features of the enter
tainment, however, was the mock we'd
ding, in which the "charming' bride
was Alvin Foote. The groom, or would
be husband, was Clarence Bell, and
were very solemnly united in marriage
by the "Reverend" Willard Curtis.
At late hour the party adjourned
to the dining room, which was beauti-
full with the red and white decorations
in honor of the noted saint. A deli
cious lunch of ice cream, cakes, cookies
and candy was served, all made in the
shape of heart. When the party
broke up all expressed the feeling that
they had enjoyed the evening and
thought their hostesses the best of ell
tertainers.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 16.-Mrs. Lo1-
Use l.. Peete was today sentenced to
imprisonment for life in San Quentia

| Mrs. Peete received the sentence
without apparent emotion. She had
sat throughout the day at the table
with her counsel Her husband, B. O.
Peete, who broke down February 5,
when the jury returned its verdict hnd-
ing Mrs. Peete guilty, sat beside her
during the arguments with his arm
about her shoulder. He did not seem
affected by the sentence.
W. J. Ford appeared today as coun.
sci for Mrs. Peete. William 7. Agge-
Ter, acting public defender, who was
Counsel for Mrs. Peete during her trial,
announced his withdrawal. =.
The motion for new trial was based
on affidavits purporting to reveal now
evidence; on charges of misconduct in
the trial on the part of the district at
torney, Thomas Lee Woolwine and an
attack on the legality of the act of tho
legislature providing for thirteenth,
or alternate juror, to sit in the event
of the illness of juror.
1.-THE district attorney distorted tho
facts in his argument to the jury"
said Ford
The district attorneys office filed
counter affidavits, one of which, by
Larkin A. Beck, contradicted one ty
him which was presented by the do
Tense.
The defense affidavits were of no
serious consideration, Judge Willis ruled
in announcing his denial of the new
trial motion. He stated that he did
not believe that misconduct of the dis
trict attorney was legal basis for now
trial, and called the thirteenth juror
law ga wise provision Of the legisla-
ture.o
"Therefore ! have no alternative;
must impose the sentencc,'' the court
said. "Mrs. Peete, stand up

During the Lenten season there will

Shops, with their trade, do not invent

fees, with their professions, do not
give being to the things transacted by
them; the Church, in its work, neither
invents nor gives being to the things
dealt with by it. Each, in its place,
serves man because Of an already ex-

AGITATOR H0WAT
TO JAIL FOR YEAR
Kansas President Of Miners
Union Imprisoned for
Contempt Of Court
new TRIAL DENIED

PLTTSBURG, Kan, Feb. 16.-Alex-
ander Howat, president Of the Kansas
Miners union, was found guilty Of
contempt of court and sentenced to Jail
by Judge A. J. Curran Of the Crawford
county district court today.
With Howat were found guilty his
FIVE co defendants in the contempt pro-
eeedings, all officers of the Kansas
union. They are August Dorchy, vice
president; Willard, Titus, John Elem
ing, James McGrath, and Karl Mex
we'll, executive board members.
The calling of the strikt in two mines
in violation of injunction caused the
contempt proceedings. The strike re-
suited from controversy between the
union and operators over the age Of a
Young miner. The question Of his ago
affected his rate Of pay. All of the de-
PENDANTS were sentenced to year in
Jail and to pay the court costs.
Joe Bienbrodt, George Chips and W.
l.. Hassef, officers of Croweburg
local union, tried for contempt Of
court, were found not guilty.
Judge Curran overruled motion for
a new trial and instructed the county
attorney to make out commitments for
tho prisoners. The defense filed notice
of an appeal.
The local union officers were charged
by the state with fining two union
members who appealed a case to the
industrial court The union has pro-
vision or a fine in such cases. The
Judge held that it was not proved that
the members had been fined.
Bonds were fixed at $4,000 each. P.
H. Gallery, defense counsel, said it
would take twenty four hours to get
bonds. Judge Curran released the Of
hcials upon their own recognizance un-
til tomorrow.
The injunction was issued last Sep
TENDER by Judge Curran, forbidding
union officials from calling strike.
It was sought by the state in the en-
forccment of the industrial law. How
Mt and three other officials, one of them
being Dorchy, now are at liberty on
bond while another case is awaiting
hearing in the state supreme court.
They were sent to Jail last spring when
they refused to obey the order Of
Judge Curran TO appear before the IN
dustrial court and testify. They were
in Jail several days before they gave
bond.
Mrs. Howat was in the court room
when her husband was sentenced. She
was in tears.
Howat laughed and joked with Off
GERS and friends after he had been
sentenced.
This is the second time Howat has
faced Judge Curran ON contempt Of
court charges.
Last April he, Dorchy and two other
officials were sentenced to jail until
they consented to appear as witnesses
before the Kansas court Of industrial
relations. They were in jail less than
week. With them went Thomas Har-
vey, secretary treasurer, and R. p.
Foster, district auditor. The case
has been appealed to the United States
Supreme Court, whore it is now pend
ing.
The sentences imposed today viii
have no effect on the strike called by
tho executive board and the strike or
der will remain in force until q settle.

MAKING A PLEA
FOR Open SHOP
Brotherhood Leaders Say
Executives Would Crush
Organized Labor
APPEAL TOLABORB0ARD

CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-Labor today ap-
peared before the railroad labor board
in IN effort to check the railway execu-
tives' drive against national agree
ments. This drive, B. M. Jewell, chair
man of the employees committee, de-
clared, was inteAded to obscure the
fundamental issues at stake, which
We're the open shop movement and an
attempt to crush organized labor
Mr.. Jewell requested that the en-
ployes be allowed until March II to
complete their rebuttal to the rail-
roads. He also proposed that the cas-
be taken up in conference between the
carriers and the employers.
Protest Immediately was entrdcmfwy
Protest Immediately was entered by
E. T. Whieer of the carriers committee
against delay and for proposals for the
conference. He declared that the ques-
ton the board faced was merely wheth-
er the national agreements should be
continued. Frank P. Walsh, counsel for
the brotherhoods, likened the princi-
pies being laid down by the board to
those of the Supreme Court in its early
history. He said that the utterances
and acts of railway executives indica-
ted that, if not restrained, they would
''render the transportation act emaseu-
lated and abortive. This board will
be destroyed insofar as its efficient
functioning is concerned, and we shall
have endless turmoil and instability in
the railroad business.
lie declared that if the carriers did
not comply with the law the employees
would inform the public as to "the real
situation" in an attempt to prevent
Congress from enacting law for f.
nancial relief of the railroads.
"The carriers are attempting to dip
their hands into the United States
treasury and extract $75O,O0O,OO0, and
at is only their initial EFFORT he as
serted.
Mr.. Walsh reiterated the right Of
the employees to organize and act as u
unit, and declared such action was con-
templated in the railroad act.
The railroads could not accept the
benefit of the law without also agree
ing to labor's rights, he argued. He
said he saw in the railroads efforts to
thwart the employees an attempt to rem
der unsettled, chaotic conditions which
would "finally lead to the destruction
of their own house, and repeated his
request that railroad managers and di-
rectors be subponaed for cross examin-
alton.
Correspondence with the railway ex-
ecutives was read by Mr.. Jewell in an
effort to show that conferences had
been proposed prior to the fling of dis
pute over the rules. Mr.. Whittier, how
ever, replied that when the railroads
were returned to private control, he
considered the national agreements ter
minated. He also maintained that the
intent Of the transportation act was to
allow each carrier to negotiate with its
employees. The hearing adjourned until
Monday. Meanwhile, the executives Of
the railroads will gather here tomor-
row.
