THE BAM OF SEWARD FOR SERVICE
DOROTHY ELLINGSON
WOULD COMPROMISE
AND ESCAPE PRISON
SA NFRANCISCO, Mar. 5.— Attor-1
neys for 16-year-old Dorothy Filing- i
son, confessed slayer of her mother, i
are endeavoring to effect an agree- !
ment with District Attorney Brady I
for the girl to plead guilty in re-!
turn for leniency in the form of com-!
mitment to the institution rather!
than sentence to a prison.
The district attorney’s office has j
indicated no deviation from prepa- j
rations to try the murder case early j
in March. The girl, when arraigned j
a few days ago, entered a plea of
not guilty. It is understood that
if the case is tried, the defense will
be insanity.
Zigfeld says girls are knock kneed.
Well, you can’t blame the knees for
knocking one another. Everybody i
else has been doing it lately.
“Johnny,” said the teacher, “do you
ever get any good marks at school?”
“You bet I do,” said Johnny, “but
they ain’t where I am goin’ to show
’em to anybody.”

STOCKINGS TO MATCH
ALL AILMENTS SHOWN
DETROIT, Mar. 6.—Stockings to
match any ailment — belladonna
green, nux vomica red, caffeine white,
syrup of squill blue, balm of Gilead
brown and mustard plaster pink—
are being shown in hosiery shops
for spring wear.
How pleasing it will be to milady
when shestarts to choose between
a digitalis hue or ipecacuanha re
mains to be seen; also whether a
prescription will be necessary for
such purchases.
Patrons of the shops have already
found that apothecary shades pre
dominate in spring wear. Pharma
cists are reported considering the
possibility of including hosiery in
the already well-expanded drug store
stock as they feel only through
services of a registered druggist can
proper advice be given as to appro
priate shades for spring wear.
Imagine fashionable ladies peer
ing critically through lorgnettes and
murmuring “which shall I take—that
licorice yellow or the cassia acuti
folia green?”
Or waste a moment conjuring on
the possibilities when the shop girl
struggles with the names of such
stalwarts of the pharmaceutical
world as rheuminus parchiana blue.
Old family remedies and cough
syrup colors are expected to gain
most favor for street wear, while
the elusively worded shades of ex
Dtic hue will be reserved for grand
balls and dinner parties.
The thing that persuades some
fellows to do post graduate work is
a good battle eye.
Correct this sentence: “The ladies
gush over him,” chuckled the great
artist’s wife, “but it merely amuses
me.”
Doubleheader Gaines
Were Hotly Contested
.
| The double header basketball games
I at A. B. hall last night, between the
City and Cable Office teams, and the
American Legion and High SchooJ
teams were hotly contested, and prob
ably placed more men hore de com
bat than any games seen in the city.
Prof. Barnett, who played on the
-City team and on the High School
teams, is laid up today with a badly
sprained ankle, Hector McLean has a
cracked rib and numerous bruises,
Wilfred Stump is sporting a mouse
on one eye, and has numerous contu
sions and bruises. Boley, of the Cable
office team has a badly bruised foot;
and other members look like they had
gone over the top in the Marne sec
tor. And it all came about in this
way; Intense rivalry has developed
between the four teams in the city,
and this leads to another story.
The first contestants on the floor
last night were the City and Cable
office teams, the City team garnering
the scalps of their husky rivals with
much pain and travail. When the fin
al barrage was laid down the score
stood 23 to 7 in favor of the City.
For the city Stump made 10 points,
Johnson 8, Manthey 4, Dyer 3. The
Cable office volunteers made 7 points
as follows: Selby 2, Tinkler 4, Robi
son 1. No comments are made on
those who did not score, as like the
heroes of Balaklava they galloped on
wrard, for much more than a half a
league.
The second game was between the
High School five and the American
Legion squad, the younger boys romp
ing away with the game 33 to 14. It
was in reality a game for Merrit Shell
horn and Francis Leslie, as the for
mer made 15 out of 33; the latter
12; the other players contributed 6
points, Hector McLean annexing 4 of
those and Wilfred Stump 2 Here is
where the casualties piled up with no
hospital corps at hand. The Legion
squad columned right and left obliqued
taking intervals as in a skirmish line.
Commander James Bogart made 4
bullseyes on the basket; Comrade
Rucker 6; Dr. Roberts 2, and Pvt.
Logan 2.
The referees for the game between
the City and Cable Office were T.
Dyer, Dr. Roberts, and M. Shellhorn.
Timekeeper, H. Frost.
Referees for the High School and
Legion game were Tinkler and Dyer.
Timekeeper Frost:
The games were well attended and
were most interesting.
