The jury in the case of Nick Peris, proprietor of a roadhouse, late today found him guilty of a violation of the liquor law and left the punishment to the court. Sentence will be passed Monday morning. The jury stood 10 to 2 for conviction. The taking of testimony in the case of Nick Peris, proprietor of a roadhouse, charged with violating the law by permitting women to loiter about his premises where liquor is sold, was concluded at noon today before Judge J. V. Dwyer and a jury. The state was represented by County Attorney Joseph R. Jackson, Chief Deputy N. A. Rotering, and Deputy Frank L. Riley, while Attorney Tom Davis appeared for the defendant. In the opening address in behalf of the state Attorney Frank L. Riley briefly outlined the case and said that it would be shown that the Peris place, which is situated near the Five Mile, was open and doing business at 12:35 o'clock on the morning of Jan. 21, which was Sunday. He said that witnesses would testify that women were about the place and that when the sheriff's officers arrived at the place one woman and a man were standing at the bar and that a drink was served by Peris, for which the man paid. Undersheriff Jack Mella was the first witness. He said that, accompanied by several deputies, he visited the flat on Sunday morning, Jan. 21, for the purpose of ascertaining if the roadhouses were obeying the law. When he approached the Peris place he found all the lights burning and, going to the window, he saw a man and a woman at the bar. A drink was served and the man put a bill on the counter to pay for the whisky. "The woman was a person of about 26 or 21 years of age," said the undersheriff, "and her hair was disarranged and hanging about her face and back and she acted as if she had been drinking." The witness said that in a room just off the dance hall, which is connected with the bar by a door, he found two men and two women. The witness identified two decanters containing whisky which he confiscated from behind the Peris bar.

Deputies Pat Carroll and A. D. Arel also told stories similar in every detail to that of the undersheriff. The state rested shortly after 11 o'clock and then Nick Peris took the witness stand and denied that he sold any liquor to any one in his house on the morning of Jan. 21. He said that the decanters containing the whisky which the undersheriff found behind the bar were kept for his own use. Charles Osborne and Joe Schimich, who were in the Peris house on the morning of Jan. 21, swore that no liquor was served them. --- # CENTRAL STUDENTS WIN HIGH HONORS ### Former Graduates of the Butte School Winning Glory in College. According to information received at the Central high school today, former graduates are winning fame for themselves and their Alma Mater in eastern colleges. Announcement has been received that Patrick Kane has been elected president of his class and president of the student medical body. Mr. Kane is finishing his medical course in Creighton college, Omaha. He was an interne student at the St. James' hospital under Dr. M. J. Scott for two years. Another of the young men who are adding glory to the name of the Central high school is Edmund McMahon, who has taken second honors in Creighton. Leo Hanley, a former newsboy on the Post and a graduate of the Central high, has taken first honors in the law class and is running a neck and neck race for a prize of $300 for first honors in June. Peter Hunt ranked as No. 1 in his examinations at the Naval Academy at Annapolis. ### FURMAN UNDER KNIFE. Attorney Fred J. Furman underwent an operation at the Murray hospital today for stomach trouble, and information given out this afternoon is to the effect that the operation has been very successful. Mrs. John Ellis of 1819 Monroe avenue received the sad news of the death of her father, William Perrow, who died at his home in Cornwall, England, after an illness of several weeks. ### PAW KNOWS EVERYTHING. Willie—Paw, what is a gossip? Paw—A gossip is what your wife calls another man's wife who tells something about you before she has had a chance to tell it, my son. Maw—Willie, you take a bath and get to bed. --- **TELEPHONE NO. 20** [image: taxi seal — TAXI / SERVICE / ACTION / FIRST / BAGGAGE] **30 West BROADWAY** Rope ladder furnished free: If an elopement there's to be, Leave the taxi and BAGGAGE (?) to ME. ## Column 4 # TEUTONS START NEW OFFENSIVE ### Attack is Made in Champagne and Considerable Ground Captured. Berlin, Feb. 16 (via London)—The Germans began an attack in the Champagne yesterday. The war office announces that they captured ground half a mile deep over a front of one and a half miles and took 858 prisoners. Heavy fighting occurred on hill 185. The official French staff map gives a hill 185 in the Champagne two-thirds of a mile east of Tahure, which probably is the point referred to in the German statement. The extent of ground gained and the number of prisoners taken mark this as the most important battle of the year, indicating that the Germans may have begun an offensive campaign. The German attack was made at the same season as that selected for inaugurating the offensive in 1916, which was begun on the Verdun front on Feb. 21. ### NUMBER OF STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY BREAKS ALL RECORDS Lieut. Ellsworth Mosby of the Kalispell company of the state militia arrived in Butte last night from Missoula, where he has been attending the state university since the state troops were mustered out late last fall. The officer will probably remain in Butte until school opens at the state institution in the fall. Lieutenant Mosby said that the enrollment at the State university this semester had broken all records with the matriculation of about 699 regular college students for the year. ### DANCE ANNOUNCED BY UNION LADIES The Woman's Protective Union of this city, local No. 457, announces a grand dance for tomorrow evening at Carpenters' Union hall.

By a majority vote several matters which had been disturbing the harmony of the Southern Montana Poultry and Pet Stock association for the past couple of months were disposed of last night's meeting. At the next meeting on the third Thursday in March final action will be given, which, the members hope, will be satisfactory to the business men and the general community, on whom the association is to a large extent depends. No action was taken in regard to getting the state show for Butte in January, 1918, as the members felt that there is no building here suitable for a state poultry show, as the City Auditorium, the largest available, has been found too small. The support of the association was pledged to a proposed bill for the regulation of the sale of eggs, providing that eggs under seven days old be labeled fresh, and eggs older than seven days be dated and inspected. L. C. Dear was re-elected president by unanimous vote. A. H. Anderson was the choice for vice president and F. H. McLean was chosen for another term as secretary-treasurer.

Ferguson and Miss Hilma Poikla. Justice Doran's courtroom was strewn with rice a quarter of an inch deep and the justice was busy today removing particles from official papers and books as a result of a big wedding celebration which started in his courtroom yesterday afternoon after the marriage of George S. Ferguson and Miss Hilma Poikla. More than a score of friends attended the young couple, who came into the courtroom dressed in the latest style and the bride carrying a big bouquet of roses. Miss Lydia Mollan, who also carried roses, was the bridesmaid, and John Ackerman was the best man. After the celebrants left the courtroom with its chairs, tables, desk and the floor covered with rice, the wedding party went to a hotel and enjoyed a sumptuous wedding dinner. The bride is 20 years old, a resident of Butte and a native of Ely, Wis. The bridegroom is a native of Burlington, a suburb of Butte, and is 22 years old. They will make their home in the city. The bride and bridegroom were generously showered with rice that left a trail behind them wherever they went about town for an hour after the wedding. ### SUBSCRIBE FOR THE POST --- # ONLY 12 DAYS MORE ### So Don't Deny Yourself Another Day ### Until February 28—Remember Its $39.50 =====You Pay $4.00 a Month===== Gives You a Columbia Grafonola No. 35 With Six Double-Disc Records, Twelve Selections—One Record Album to Preserve Your Records and Liberal Supply of Needles. ## The Instrument Is the $35.00 Columbia Grafonola with the hinged enclosing lid.
