MOTHER. OF GIRL
| DEFENDS RICHARD.
Breaks Into Daughters
Testimony to Declare Be-
lief in Promoter.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press. -.a
NEW YORK, January 26.-Alice
Ruck, fifteen years old. East Side
schoolgirl. testified last night in city
court that she had been assaulted
seve, II times by Tex Rickard. inter-
nationally known sport promoter.
The little girl was on the stand
nearly three hours. Because of the
nature of the testimony all persons
not directly interested in the case
were barred from the courtroom.
The Ruck girl said MIR. Rickard first
attacked her in his office in the tower
of Madison Square Garden. last Au-
gust While she was describing this,
per. her mother. domestic, rushed
before the magistrate and shouted:
Il don't think Mr.. Riekard had any
thing to do with my child"
The mother was removed to an ante
room. and after the case had been ad-
journed for the night, she pleaded to
be allowed to take her child from
the custody of the Children's Society,
which preferred the charge,
The girl testified that Rickard sub
sequently attacked her on several oc-
casions in apartments near 5th ave-
nue. and 47th street, the last time on
New Year day. On all but one oc-
casion she went to the place with her
eieven-year-Old companion, Annie
Hess, she said. ...
Each time, she said. the promoter
gave them money and asked them
not to tell anybody"
Soclety's Doctor Testifies.
DR.. w. Traves Gibb. physician for
the Children's Society. gave testimony
tending to confirm the girls state
ment that she had been attacked
1t was brought out in cross-ex-
animation that the story the two
girls told at Bellevue Hospital when
they said they had taken iodine upon
reporting there late at night on Jan
nary 13 was fiction. They told a
lie, the witness admitted, in telling
hospital attendants that they had
been kidnapped and a rag soaked in
chloroform put over their faces. These
stories were told, she said, in an at
tempt to get lodging at the hospital
overnight. as they feared to go home
at late hour.
The girl, who appears to be much
younger than she is, testified she had
a prediction for motion pictures, and
said she carried a newspaper photo
graph of Rickard in the cuff of her
coat sleeve for three months
The hearing will be resumed next
Monday night.

FIRE DESTROYS
ANDERSON Home
NEAR. MONARCH
House and All Contents Burn
at Night While Family
Absent

The farm home of Mr.. and Mrs
August Anderson of Monarch, consid-
cred one of the finest farm houses in
Cascade county, was totally destroyed
early last Tuesday morning by q fire
of unknown origin. it was reported in
Great Falls Thursday by Mrs. Ander-
son. With the house was burned all
of itg contents and the garage and au-
tomobile. The family was away from
home on the night of the fire and first
learned of the loss when they returned
nex morning.
The family had been at another
ranch some three miles distant baling
hay for several days and Monday even
ing one of the sons returned home to
do the chores about the barn. There
was no evidence of a fire when he left
and it is not known when the flames
not being seen by anybody living in the
neighborhood. The building was re-
duced to a pile of ashes before the
family knew Of the fire.
All of the family's personal effects
were burned with the exception of
those taken with them to the neigh
boring ranch. Among the more import
ant olsses was a collection of Nor
wegian carpets, rugs and woodwork,
The collection had been gathered by
the Anderson family during a period
covering a quarter of a century and
in addition to its monetary worth was
of great sentimental value. There
were no pieces in the collection that
can be replaced, it was stated. The
total property loss was not estimated
but it is understood TO have perhaps
exceeded $4,000, partially covered by
insurance.
The Anderson farm home had fol-
severa Years been the headquarters
for numerous Great Fails families dur
ing the summer camping season. The
house was located at a scenic place
near the Kibbey canyon and during ths
summer season received many requests
for accommodations from persons il
the city.

Since the days when Charles Dick
ems wrote the story of the Cratchitt's
Christmas dinner, holiday dinners for
. those who depended upon the gen
erosity of their fellowmen for their
feasts have been of universal interest.
In Great Falls Thanksgiving was a
day of real joy for the children at st.
Thomas Orphans home and the people
at the county poor farm and the city
and county jails. All the cheer that
emanates from a delicious and perfect
ly cooked meal vas present at each of
these places and was the medium
through which approximately 200 per-
sons were made happy.
Annually, Dan Tracy and T. r. Van

donors of Thanksgiving dinners to the
children of st. Thomas. This year, 10
of a dinner that had all the additional
accessories. Plum pudding, cranberry
sauce, mashed potatoes, mince pie,
candy and celery, enforced with two
big boxes of apples given by Mrs. }.
G. Gergan and Mrs. Josephine Robbins,
were on the menu. A bucket Of candy
was given by the Calumet Tea com
pany. No child who got the stomach
ache in his w home ever had a
Thanksgiving happier than that of the
children at the school, the sisters
stated.
At the county poor farm the charges
of Superintendent Thomas Holland sat
down to a table to be serveS with
roast pork, roast turkey with brown
gravy, mashed potatoes, plum pudding,
cranberry sauce, celery, mince and
pumpkin pie. apples, oranges and
coffee.
Sheriff Bob Gordon was the host to
his 30 guests at the county Jail, sery-
ing them the following dinner: roast
turkey with brown gravy, dressing,
pickles. cranberry sauce, fruit salad
mashed potatoes, assorted vegetables,
in lettuce leaf nests, and pumpkin pie
and coffee. y
