Dr. Itader tells a story well " and held the interest of his audience - to the close. Organize for Class Work. The organization of the Summer classes and announcements by instruc- r -tors followed..

BBAKEMAN KILLS TRAMP TRAGEDY ABOARD FREIGHT TRAIN" NEAR YAKIMA. Hobo Wounds Trainman Before Lat ter Gets Gun Into Action. Many Desperate Tramps. NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., July 7. (Special.) In a brisk encounter on a freight train between Monte and Top penlsh at 3 o'clock this morning a tramp, believed to be Charles Rice, was killed, and Brakeman J. L. Blake, of the Northern Pacific, was wounded.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo., July 7. With the jury completed, nine of whom are farmers, and only the opening state ment of the defense and prosecution made, taking of testimony began today in the trial- of Steve Adams, accused of the assassination of Arthur Collins, the mine manager, during the strike troubles in TellurWe several years ago. District Judge Shackleford, sitting in the case, granted the application of the attorney for the defense to have the state summons Adams' witnesses by allowing J100 for the purpose. In his ' opening statement for the prosecution. Attorney H. M. Hogg re ferred to Adams' confession. "We object. Your Honor," Interrupted Attorney Hilton, chief counsel for the de fense. ' Hilton then began an argument as to the admissibility of the alleged confes sion, upon which document the prosecu tion bases its entire case. The court over ruled the objection insofar as it pertained to the opening address. The defense filed objections as to why the confession should not be admitted, principal among which was that It was involuntary and GOLDEN WEDDING i i.-. . r. . . . had been secured with a promise of favor and immunity. The. court withheld deci sion on this point. The question of the admissibility of Adams' alleged confession came up again at the afternoon session when the prosecution attempted to question Bulkeley Wells, former Adjutant-General of Colorado, who was on the wftness stand, as to its contents. Attorney Hilton, for the defense, ob jected vigorously to any statement of the wording on the ground that the docu ment was signed by Adams under threat and promise of Immunity from prosecu tion. Attorney Hilton charged that Bulke ley Wells, Detective James McParland and the Sheriff of the county in Idaho where Adams was confined in jail await ing trial conspired to frighten Adams into placing his signature to the docu ment which purported to be a voluntary confession of the murder of Collins made by Adams. The matter was argued for several hours by attorneys for both sides, the prosecution denying the charges of Hil ton and court adjourned, until tomorrow when it was announced, decision would be rendered on the question of admissibility. During the morning session several witnesses were examined, for the purpose or snowing the manner of Collins death. The shotgun alleged to have been used by the assassins was offered In evidence and identified by a witness who stated that shells found in the vicinity of the Collins home and shot taken from the dead body of Collins were fired from this gun or one similar to it.

Guide Stampfler, George Schemp and Ritchie Berg, of Tacoma, and Robert Cook, of California, ascended Mount Rainier to the crater yesterday, making the trip from Longmires and back to Paradise Valley in one day. "From Camp Muir we found the climb ing very difficult," said Mr. Schemp to day, "and it was nearly 6 o'clock in the evening when we reached the crater. The snow was soft. There is one place on the side of Gibraltar Rock where the trail, the guide says, is considerably altered for the worse. There, just over the head of Xisqually-glacier, is a sheer drop of hundreds of feet. "Coming down Stampfler stumbled or slipped and like a shot he went tumbling down the side of the wall full 35 or 40 feet. He managed to stick his Ice pick into the side and caught himself and siowly clambered back to the trail. "We found the crater full of snow, with the exception of the rim on the south and east sides. Steam was issuing from the rim on the east side." 3 mmmmS?mv-t,!sm i r. HALF-PRICE FOR JARDINIERES and REED J$l ... gl-S Dozens of other Baskets PHONOGRAPH SWEET BABEE NURSING BOTTLE ' Easy to Fill.
