Because Mrs. Betty Inch was too generous in the display of her ankles to Jurymen who failed a month aso to agree on a verdict in her trial on a charge of extortion, she found the witness stand surrounded by- a four foot board fence when she appeared today in the supreme court for the second hearing of her case.

Tho the court and prosecutor professed Ignorance for the reason for the erection of the barrier, court attendants recall a statement of the latter when the first jury disagreed that "Mrs Inch must not show her ankles to the Jurors at the next trial," else he would "ask the court to make her lower her dressv" "What la-it, a iplta fence?" tbe submerged people, the rise and spread of bolshevlism. the dislocation of industry and the existence of famine have created new "and extraordinary difficulties."

In a formal statement issued here today, charged that the senate by Its failure to pass "many pending measures essential to American business" hid "abdicated Its functions and neglected its own duty to point out the supposed derelictions of the president and defects in a peace treaty which has not been completed and which la not before the senate for Its consideration." Declaring that "those who assent to so desperate a political device assume a heavy responsibility," Mr. Cumminga praised the attitude of former President Taft and criticised the republican senators opposed to the present terms of the draft "under the leadership of Senators Lodge, Penrose and Knox." He charged them with having no "breadth of view" and with being actuated "in part by a settled dislike for Wilson and all his works and in part by a fixed purpose to embarrass the president and to weaken his influence at home and abroad."

The "booze hound" tells this story of- the new angle to the bootlegging game and incidentally the reason for amending the game laws, in order that the birds may be killed when necessity arises. It has been reported that a bootlegger, searching for some way to avoid the stringent watch kept for the importation of liquor from our neighboring state, captured a number of voting pelicans last summer and fed them well at his ranch during the winter. The result was that his spring he had a flock of extra large pelicans with well developed beaks. 'The pelicans, having been well fed and cared for, came to look at the ranch as their home and when taken many miles away and released, immediately wended their way back to the ranch along the aerial route. The next step was to take the pelicans to Wyoming.

Before being released there each bird had a quart bottle of "red eye" placed in his beak the end or the beak then being tied with a strong string. The birds on being released immediately flew high and straight for their ranch home near Alliance. On reaching the ranch the string was untied and the bottle safely This has been so profitable that it is getting to be a regular thing. It is reported that the secret was given away by a pelican which yas entrusted With a bottle which had a loose cork. The cork came out, the bird swallowed the booe and becoming drunk, mistook the Alliance' eity hall for its rookery, alighting there.

The bird was rescued and the secret came out that is, the botle caine out after the string was untied. 'Some people say this story may not be true.
