PLEAS OF GUILT IN MURDER CASE (Continued from page one.) her testimony, the complaining wit- ness said she was a native of Italy and that her maiden name was Mary Tanzo; that she married Dezepro and he deserted her; that she then came to the United States where she met a man by the name of Paul Fran- cisco and they lived together as man and wife without the formalty of marrying, she never having obtained a divorce from her husband in Italy. She claimed that Lancia, who room- ed at the same house, made ‘improp- er advances to her, Lancia declared it was a plot to get his money, as he is an expert bricklayer and makes good money. He said the woman did his washing each week, otherwise he- had noth- ing to do with her. He denied hav- ing made any improper advances. The case of Jacob Kuru is being taken up this morning and the jury has already been secured. Kuru is charged with petit larceny of $10 and was convicted in justice court but took an appeal, If the Kuru case is finished today, Kennedy will undoubtedly be sen- tenced this afternoon. The present plan is to take the ‘Woods case up tomorrow morning. Woods is charg- ed with killing Vincent Murphy at Stanley. Six special jury men were sub- poenaed Monday to take.the.place.of those who have been excused and thus make up the full complement. They are: John Munger, M. A. Yan- ey, John Frazier, George Moore, P. P. Elliott and Charles Wright. NO BLAGK HAND ON THE RANGE, HE SAYS ‘I do not believe the reports of the organization of a Black Hand so- ciety on the range have the tae | est foundations: says Attilio Castig- liano, Htalian consul, “I investigated at the instigation Of the Italian gov- ernment, a similar report last year, and with unlimited funds at my com- the aid of expert detectives, and the assistance of many people of my nationality could not find a single thing which would lead one to place the least credence in the rumor. In fact,” he continued, “I am very ptical as to the existence of Black Hand organization anywhere. ] the symbol] is simply used scattered criminals as a to force money from terror stricken countrymen of mine, It re- y much of the old _be- ief that was in existence during the 7th, 18th and the early part of the centuries, that all pirates were mand, believe by widely nds me ve on the same basic facts that the be-1 lief in the Black Hand ‘society’ of to- ; day is the use of a common symbol under which to operate. ! “The pirates used the black flag adorned with a gruesome white in- |signia, representing a skull and cross-bones; the Italian, blackmailers of today use the symbol of the black hand, and that, I believe, is all there |is to the theory. “As for the range organization, you, or could any sensible man, be- lieve that a criminal who had an eas method of living would go to work day in and day out at a hard task in the mines, half-frozen at times, and all for $2 a day? Now, if you told me that an organization of Italian criminals existed in New York or Chicago among the loafing, shift- Jess population of the tenement dis- trict, I might be less skeptical, but among laborers of the range—oh, pshaw. “It is an erroneous idea held by certain classes of residents of Amer- ica, that the Italians furnish more criminals than any other nationality. This is absolutely false. The re- cords of St. Louis county, for in- stance, are open for inspection at any time, and upon investigation ydu will find that the Italians are neither first nor second by a_ long figure among the criminal class of this county. And so it is in every part of every state in the Union. “There does exist as every fair mind- ed person must admit, a prejudice against the Italians by certain class- es of people in this country. Only the other day a man was telling me of a case in which a prominent Hibbing business man demanded that two Italjang working for his firm be discharged, saying to his foreman, ‘Why don’t you hire white men?’ to show me a nation which has. whit- er—in the generally accepted term jot the word—blood than the | Italians.” EVEN A HEN CACKLES when she wants the people to know that she has laid a new fresh egg, and why shouldn’t we make a big noise about the handsome new Fall and Winter woolens which we've re- ceived from our famous Chicago tail- ors.

Nel- son, who has charge of. the forestry preservation over a large portion of Itasca and Aitkin ccuntes, has is- sued a notice to his patrolmen and to the loggers in his district calling attention to the new law requiring the burning of brush and tree tops in timber slashings, and says he is going to see that it is strictly en- H's letter to patrolmen and loggers reads as follows: “Under the new law it is made the duty of. every one cutting timber for any purpose to dispose of the slashings. This ap- plies to people doing any kind of logging, clearing land for farming purposes, cutting roads, etc. It is part of the effort being made to pre- vent forest fires and it will be strict- ly enforced. “Rangers will be on duty all win- ter, as well'as during the summer months, to see that brush is properly disposed of. The manner in which ‘slash’ must be disposed of will vary more or less with the character of the woods, so that it will be well to get in touch with the ranger be- fore cuttings begin.

And say, but, wasn’t it-a swell affair? They surely en- tertained us royally and we shall never forget the good time that we had. To start off with, the Coleraine faculty and students gave what they termed an informal program, but it seemed as though it must have re- quired much preparation. This pro- gram was greatly enjoyed by every- body. It was brought to an end, by the Coleraine football yell, given by both boys and girls. The orchestra then began playing, and, of course, dancing was in order. The Green- way high school auditorium is a model one, in that it has © movable seats. These were all moved to the | sides of the room, leaving a roomy space in which to dance. Later in the evening, refreshments were serv- ed, and soon after th's the Grand Rapids high school “bunch” left for home. We all enjoyed ourselves and THE RI ‘A MODERN HOTEL VERSIDE J. F.

Why not cut the dead deer’s tail off? “No sooner said than done. I took out my knife and cut off the tail: Then I took hold of the tail and giv- ing a couple of snorts, I started for the cabin.

This contest was scheduled on the day when Coleraine should play |Grand Rapids: high schoo] here but |the place of play was changed. It was the intention to send the first team over to Coleraine for the game. Owing to the disbandment of ithis team, however, it was neces- sary to send the second team to fill the date with the Greenway high school. They did it without a mur- mur, glad of the chance to prove their prowess. So, on November 4, about s‘xty stu- dents and half a dozen teachers, to- gether with the team, wended their way over to the neighboring city, the team to play football, the others to root for the orange and black.

It was Grand Rapids, however, strengthened up as the game pro gressed. In the second half three first team boys were substituted for three tired players, which improved the line, although in this quarter Coleraine pushed over another touch- down. They again failed to kick goal Score 15 to 0. In the third quarter, due to a slight injury to Howard Sherman, Will Pow- ers went in as a substitute. As soon as Will took his place in the back- field, at right half, the tide of battle turned in our favor. In the last quarter, Grand Rapids pushed over two touchdowns, and kicked one goal. Just as the last goal was be- ing kicked, the referee’s whistle blew and the game was at an end. The second team seemed to have hard luck, or something of the kind, in getting off their forward passes, as they didn’t work very many of them.
