ings of the present theatrical season

cessful comic opera, "The Yankee

Robyn are the authors of the play,

CTnCAGO-SEATTLE GAME.
Seattle Brings Chicago Team West at
Cost of $2000.
The nerve of the Seattle filgh school
lads In bringing a football team to
Seattle from Chicago to play for the
Interucholastic championship of the
west is everywhere commented upon
favorably, and the boys probably will
be rewarded by the biggest crowd that
ever turned out to a football game In
Seattle, New Year's Day, says the Se
attle Times.
Nothing like this trip was ever even
contemplated by a high school team
before. Years ago the Michigan
team, then In Its glory, made a trip to
California to play Stanford, and Stagg
once took a Chicago team out there
during the holidays. Both these trips
were the talk of the athletic world
at the time. But for a high school
team to travel half across the contl
nent to play a game of football was
not even dreamed of a few years ago,
much less talked of.
The Seattle team this year Is un
questionably the- best on the coast
and northwest. The north division
school won the championship of Chi
cago and the middle west, defeating
the Hyde Park school, which turnea
out such great players as Eckersall
and the Hammond boys, so that the
winner of the game here New Year's
Day will have a clear title to cnam
plonshlp honors In the west at least.

torneys making their opening state
ments In the Thompson murder trial,
says a Taooma dispatch. Assistant
Prosecuting Attorney Miller, of King
county, made a statement for the
prosecution. His speech to the Jury
laeted half an hour and recited all the
incidents leading up to the murder of
Judge Fmory. Miller went Into ml
nute details to prove that Thompson
bought a revolver and went to Judge
Emory's house for the purpose of
killing someone.
Judge Thompson, father of the prls
oner, Bpoke for an hour and a na'.r,
when a recess for noon was taken
He resumed at ? p. m. The burden
of his speech was that Insanity Is her
edltary in the Thompson family. He
opened his talk by giving the history
of his family for many generations
back, relating numerous Instances of
Insanity among his ancestors.
After exhaustively covering this he
took up the peculiarities of his son.
Beginning at his babyhood he recited
the mental characteristics of the boy,
told of his moods, peculiarities, likes
and dislikes, his irresponsibility under
various conditions and his proneness
to Irrationallsm when his emotions
were stirred.
His statement Is of the most sweep
ing character, and may last all the
afternoon, ail nets of, Chestoi Thomp
son oeing covered and placed nerore

There are no heavy rock cuts In
the vicinity of camp No. 5, and a
charge of black powder had been

fuse worked poorly and the explosion
was delayed. Carlson concluded that
the fuse had failed of Its purpose and
Instead of waiting for a possible re
