connection with the rad on the Clifton
Vile tipple July II. In which Sheriff II.
II. Duval and six miners were slain in
tho clash between deputies and mine
workers.
The verdict carries with 1t a term Of
from two to ten years in tho penIten-

asked for a new trial. and Judge J. B.
Sommervdlle set December 30 to hear
arguments on the retrial motion.
Arunski's conviction Is the second for
conspiracy. the first being Peter Rada-
kovitch. whose application for n new
trial Is pending. More than 200 miners
are yet to be tried as a result OF the
tipple raid. and 1t Is understood that the
next trial will open January 2.
District Attorney Wilkin is reported
as favoring the trials Of the miners for
conspiracy instead OF homicide. as was
originally intended. and on which count
John Kaminsk!. first OF the miners to

and had accompanied them was sufric-

Schuck stressed the Importance OF tho

WHAT ONE WOMAN DID

When I was a child I knew a very homely woman. I suppose at that time she was 30, to me she seemed 40 or more; children exaggerate age so.
 She was honely.s First of all, she was an old maid. Her hair was get ting gray even then, and rather thin at that, she had muddy skin, a. large mouth, prominent teeth, not much chin and a dreadful nose-large and badly shaped. Not only that, she was thin and hollow chested, stopped, aand was awkward, and too tall for the rest of her proportions. Somehow she dropped out of the family circle. Rumors came back that the man she had been engaged to for ten years q believe she had

Two days later Jimmie Warburton called at the Cameron house in his big touring car, to ask if he might take Ilona for drive through the country.
 Mrs. Cameron's astonishment show ed plainly in her face, when the young man presented himself to ask her if her younger daughter might go.
 Jimmie don't you forget that our little girl has just returned to us and is not even a isub-deb, as yet?' she asked smilingly. we mustn't let her go running herself to death be- fore she really knows what life is about, must we now? I1ona's still in the schoolroon, my dear. and school girls don't go driving with young men. as you know.
 That's quite alright Mrs. Gamer on," answered Jimmie Warburton, "I want to take both the girls of course. only I didn't think it necessary to ask for Truda. if you'n let both of them come we can have jolly ride as dts glorious afternoon and the blossoms are just beginning to come out" he said eagerly.
 Here is Truda now. she can an- swer for herself and I'll go up and tell I1ona to put on her hat and coat. Maybe it will do the child good. She had her first English lesson today. plus several others, no doubt she would welcome a change and a good laugh with you two. The child seems to take things hard.
